OAKLAND, June 2.—Because he had a yearning to become di actor Alonzo Ding- well, 17 years old, the son of J. H. Ding- well, restding at 1508 West street, has run away from home, ieaving his anxious | parents without a clew by which the miss- ing vouth might be traced. The services of the police have been Invoked to assist in the search for the young man and the parents have sent broadcast throughout | the State circulars announcing the disap- | pearance. Young Dingwell was a student at the Central High School, particularly apt and clever, with a decided bent toward theat- ricals. Ever since childhood he has mani- | fested a keen interest in everything that | fiavored of the stage. He was the leader {in many amateur theatrical entertain- | ments and had gone so far as to write glays that were subsequently produced by is young companions under his own di- rection and supervision. At home his leisure time was occupied in constructing scenic sets and buijlding stage mechanical appilances. His parents saw nothing harmful in his bhoyish ambitions. Although they had never given him any special encourage- ment, no obstacles had been thrown in his way to prevent him from employing his youthful talents in the direction he had selected. Friday afternoon the lad went home from school and at 4 o'¢lock left the house to go to an evening newspaper office to handle his route, which he was serving to earn money for his theatrical endeavors. Dingwell did not arrive as usual at the office and_he has not since been seen at home. He departed without a word of warning. He left without taking any clothing excepting the garments he wora, and to no one, so far as the family and the police have been able to learn, did he .confide his intention to depart. “We cannot imagine what induced the boy to leave,” said the father, a promi- nent building contractor of this city, “un- less it be that his.ambition to go on the stage has mastered his good sense. He had everything at home that a boy could expect to have and was a lad of good morals and habits.” The youth is about five feet six inches tall, of medium (thsique. with fair com- plexion and medium brown hair. “What is your favorite salutation?” she asked the dilatory youth. “Eh! Why, 1 g ‘What's glrl yawned wearily. “It would have been good-night,” she -sald. “But in about two minutes it will be_good-morning.” “Good-by,” sald the dilatory youth.— Plain Dealer. on’t know.

John MEMORIAL SEEVIUES— FOR HEROIC WOMEN The Rev..B. F. Sargent Awards Them Greatest Hanor for Patriotic Sacrifices. BERKELEY, June 2—-A gervice especially designed to commemorate the heroism of the women in the civil war was held fo-night in the North Barkeley Congregational Church. The Rev. Ben- jamin F. Sargent preached the memorial sermon and patriotic music was rendered. The clergyman sald: A half millicn boys in blue, the bravest and strongest of our land, did of thelr abundance and strength cast much into the treasury of their country. But in that procession, so viv- idly brought before us_on Memorlal day, T behold certain women—30,000 of them on ‘the field and in hospital service—but many mil- lions at home, who quietly and humbly. made thelr offering to their country’s need. And I rise to-night to give the verdict that woman's in the conflict was this: She cast in more than they all into the treasury.. The gift was greater in proportion, in the cost of the self-sacrifice, in the motives which in- spired it and in the resuMs. For it is not too much to say that without woman's aid, her labors, her service, her faith, her prayers, we should never have achieved the victory in which we rejoice to-day. —_—— Farce for an “Open Night.” ALAMEDA, June 2 — “Second Floor Spoopendyke,” a two-act farce, will be produced to-morrow night in Armory Hall at an “open night” to be held by the En- cinal Literary Soclety.
