MAE ESTIMWTE POPULATION OF THEIR CITY Letter-Carriers Kept Tab on| Census Enumerators’ Daily Reports. Those Figures Show That Oakland | Will Have a Population of About Seventy Thou- sand People. | e Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, June 20. The population of Oakland will be 70,000 or a little more. The census enumerators who have been | working in this city closed their labors | to-day, and while their footings have not been made, and could not be given out if they were, it is estimated that the popu- | lation will at least reach the figure given, if not go higher. ! | Assistant Supervisor of the Census | Whitney gave that figure as the resuit of a system of rough computation that has\ been kept by the letter-carriers of Oak- | land. As tant supervisor Mr. Whit- | ney 1 prevented from giving out any | figures upon the census, and a violation | of this would mean a fine of $00; but he | says that the letter-carriers of Oakland | have been watching the daily reports of | the enumerators as they went mmugn“ the mails and that they have secured | these figures as a rough result. The car- | riers are much interested in the result of | this census, for if the population of Oak- | land goes x,umcnenuY igh its rating in the postal world will be Increased and there will be additional carriers and ad- ditional pay allowed. ““The carrlers,” said Mr. Whitney, “have | been watching the daily *reports that go | through the mails from the enumerators, | and they say that, estimating from what they have thus een, the g puln.tlon will reach course, have 'no | e to 9 tiis, DUt thes Hava done it. | Fhese Sires are not the result of any in- formation that I have in my hands. The last census gave Oakland less than 50,000 population. ~The city has always | claimed that this census was defective, | and with the annexed district it is claimed | that the population is between 75,000 and WILL REMARRY AFTER TWO YEARS’ SEPARATION OAKLAND, June 20.—After living apart for two years, in accordance with a decree of divorce handed down by Judge Hall, Willlam F.

Appetite for Strong Drink Breaks Up the Homes of Alfred H. Jaquith and George Briggs. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadw: June 20. Judge Hall granted two divorces to-day on the ground of intemperance. In each case the husband and head of the fam- ily was the one with the appetite for strong drink. Mabel A. Jaquith was re- | leased from the bonds that bound her to Alfred H, Jaquith and Ora Briggs was granted a divorce from George Briggs, In the case of Mrs. Jaquith against her husband, the plaintiff testified- that for over a gyear and a half since her mar- fiage sfie had been forcedy to rely upon her parents for her support. . While her husband earned good wages at hls trade he spent his money in thirst. Saturday night was H.lme for indulging in alcoholic beverages | to the great detriment of the family purse land larder. Sunday was spent in sober- |ing up and on Monday Jaguith would be unable to go to Work. Finally _things reached such a stage that Mrs. Jaquith | abandoned her husband and went to live | with her ?aroms In the suit of Ora Brizgs against Georse Briggs, the plaintiff declared that'a few Vears atter their marslage In 1584 her hus- band developed such an appetite for in- toxicating liquor that he became utterly worthless and refused to work. His in- dulgence In intoxicants, according to Mrs. Briggs, on several occasions led him to abuse her in a cruel manner. On one oc- casfon when she refused him money he struek her to the floor and brandishing a razor above her head threatened to cut her throat if she did not give him money. The custody of Lyman E. Briggs, four- teen years old, was ~awarded to the mother.

About two months ago an effort was made to close the retail stores early Saturday evenings, and a number of es- tablishments have since been observing such an agreement. Where formerly clerks were kept employed until late at night they now have an opportunity to get out and move around among people. The first to start the early closing move- ment among wholesale grocers was Well- man, Peck & Co. One of the proprietors called upon several wholesalers and rep- resented to them that Saturday was an “off day” in a business sense and that no great amount of trade if any would be lost if the wholesale stores put up the shut- ters at 1 or 2 o'clock on that day. employes would certainly apprumo opportunity to clean up and get ready for Sunday and better service by them was a certainty. On Saturday, June 2, at 2 o'clock, Weilman, Peck & Co. set the ex- ample by “closing shop.” On the follow- ing Saturday Sussman, Wormser & Co., o9 the oppesite side of the street, fol- lowed suit, and since then Folger & Co., Hooper & Jennings, Mau, Sadier & C Jfind % number of others Have fallen into ne. So far no special hour has been set for quitting work, but from a statement by one of the Interested parties it is likel that very soon the wholesale grocers wi call a meeting and come to a decision as to an hour at which all will close. At present only the wholesale grocers are in the movement, which is believed will be- fore long extend to other wholesale houaes. 5 Social Democratic party of America and was well attended. e Gt Oy Heavy Mortgage Foreclosed.
