Butler, and it was this little fellow who' was christened on the univer- sity campus last night. Little John al- ready possessed one name, a name that was not at all football like, and his fond parents decided that one name was not auite enough for so smart and sturdy a voungster. The selection of a middle name bothered them not a little, and at last Mr. Butler decided that the question of a middle name ghould be left to the rooters who were to gather last night on the campus for the purpose of cheering the freshman team on to victory Now, Mr. Butier is a U mver-l(_v of Cali- fornla man clear tkrough, He {s 2 mem- ber of the senior class and will graduate next year.

A S Luella Gardiner Discloses to Police ‘Whereabouts of a Lot of Valu- ables She Gathered From Gilbert Residence. o TR Oakland Office San Franeisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, Oect. 26. Miss Luella Gardiner, the pretty young domestic who turned burglar. was very | deliberate in the use to which she put some of her plunder from the residence o Louis H. Gilbert, at 411 Telegraph avenue. Until she confessed to the crime a lot of valuable silverware the girl gathered in adorned the home of a sister, to whom Miss Gardiner presented the stolen ware as a wedding present. To the astonishment and disturbance of the young bride, detectives with a search warrant swooped down upon these tokens of a sister's affection and returned them | to the Gilberts as soon as they .had traced the goods. There was no objection to that course. Miss Gardiner's extraordinary action has quite prostrated the distressed relatives, These facts were brought out during the young domestic’s preliminary examination to-day in the Police Court. She had made a complete confession to the detectives affer her arrest for stealing jewels and money from E. Bamett, her employer. ‘While the police had been searching her room for the hidden Barnett valuables a couple of gold stick pins_a portion of the | stuff stolen from the Gilbert residence, next door, were found. With that clew the police secursd another confession from the girl. She admitted that on Septem- ber 8, while the family was away, she had entered the Gilhert residence and carried off a lot of vaiuable jewelry and wearing apparel. All of the property was subse- quently found in her room except the sil- verware. Miss Gardiner was finally in- | duced to explain that she had given this | to_a sister as a wedding present. Judge Smith held the girl for trial in $1000 bail. The Barnetts refused to prose- cute her. ——— BOLD DAYLIGHT ROBBERY COMMITTED BY CHINESE —— Ping On Attacks a Woman in a House and Is Chased and Captured.

Mr. Barnett himself admits this, ter; and the announcement comes as a great surprise to those who know Mr. | Barnett and the political service that led to_his appointment. Trowbridge H. Ward, former Supreme last State convention appeared as a can- didate for his old place, cominx from this county. Root was aiso a candidate, and his success depended upon whether he could »glu Alameda County. . The defeat of Dr. George C. Pardee created an incli- nation to give Alameda County some- thing, and had the county united upon Ward for Supreme Court Clerk, Ward would have been nominated. Root was very anxious to prevent Alameda County from uniting upon any one. Barnett con- trolled the delegates from the Forty- elghth Assembly District and g them to Root. This defeated Ward, and Root was nominated when the nomination was in the hands of Ward had he been able to keep the delegates from the Forty-eighth District in line. Barnett was promised a position as Dep- uty Clerk, but for some unexplained rea- son was compelled to wait the better part of a year before the appointment was made.” He has now held office just fifteen months, when the announcement of his removal comes. It is said that a relative of Mr. Root will be appointed, and the Alameda Coun- ty politiclans who made Root’'s nomina- tlon possible because of Barnett are not in a friendly frame of mind.
