The edition has been almost exhausted, and the young ladies, with genuine business acumen. are preparing to {ssue another. It has proven that the co-eds have a well-developed finanetal instinct, for the advertising paid all of the expenses and the proceeds of the sale represent the profits. The girls doubled the size and changed the style of the magazine. That they took advantage of all opportunities is shown by the num- ber of candidates’ announcements which appeared in the advertisements. The drift of co-ed Inclinations may be gathered from the fact that the issue contains five pages of sp pages of prose liter- ature, three zes of poetry, not quite two pages of edi al, five pages devoted to college societies and news, one page to the new gymnasium. two pages of miscellany ur and fourteen pages of advertising. Thesa are the two leading editorials: DEDICATION.

Salinger, for an accounting, and | for a brief time the store was in the | charge of Romuldo H. Romo as receiver. | The difficulty was not due to the financial condition of the firm, which operates the largest department store in Oakland, but throughk a disagreement, in its turn the outgrowth of a misunderstanding between Albert M. Salinger and Moses Salinger. The suit was flled by Moses Salinger, | through his attorneys, James H. Budd and Eugene F. Bert. The complaint sets forth the formation of Salinger Brothers in 1878, and says that since 1830 the books of the firm have not been posted and that between $20,000 and $21,000 s due Moses Salinger from his brother. Small detatls are then alleged—that Albert M. Salinger has drawn more out of the business than Moses Salinger, and the prayer is that a receiver be appointed and that an ac- counting be had. Acting upon the docu- ments in the case Judge Ogden appointed Mr. Romo receiver, with bonds fixed at There was a conference between tha brothers this afternoon and an amicable agreement was reached. moses Salinger went to San Francisco to consult with his attorneys as to the dismissal of the suit. Albert M. Salinger to-night gave the fol- lowing statement, which shows the mis- understandings that have arisen: “The trouble is all due to a misunder- standing. My brother would never have commenced this suit against me if he had known what he knows now. Thera are a great many things about this busi- hess of ours that he does not know about. He is a good business man, but he does not bother his head about the details. The business has alwn{a stood in my name. I brought mv brother out from the East ears ago and gave him an interest in the gnslness. We have always divided the profits. 1f there were any business trans- actions, however, or real estate deals, they were carried out in my name to save trouble. “In this matter there have been outside influences. I don't know what they are, but some one has led him to belfeve that he has been getting the worst of it. He listened to storfes and they became mag- nified. Now he is sorry. He announced to me this afternoon that the suit would be withdrawn and went over to the city to-night to see what could be done.” —_—e——— ADDITIONAL VETERANS ON REPUBLICAN ROLL OAKLAND, Nov. 1—In the published membership roll of the Quarter Century Republican Club the names of Benjamin Nute of Oakland and C.
