PARDEE TENANTS A GELL San Jose Officers Arrest the Former Oakland Man. Information Charges Passing Bogus Checks in San Francisco. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOBE, Nov. 30.—Starr C. Pardee, the former soclety man of Oakland, is a prisoner in the County Jall, charged with having obtained goods under false pre- tenses and passed worthless checks in San Francisco. He was arrested here to-night by Deputy Sheriff Bache, on instructions from San Franclsco. Pardee arrived here a few months ago from Stockton and engaged apartments in Hotel Vendome. He was accompanled by a woman and boy. He had hardly got set- tled before he was arrested on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses and taken back to Stockton. Friends went to his aid and he was released. A month ago he returned to Oakland and began passing worthless checks. Next S8an Fran- cisco was the scene of his operations, which led to his arrest to-night. Pardee arrived here last night, he and the woman with him registering at the St. James as Mr. and Mrs. Martin C. “Coles of New York. He tried to pass a check in Slavich's restaurant, but was unsuccessful. . NO DRILLS IN DECEMBER FOR THE GUARDSMEN Prospect of Reorganization on United States Army Lines Meets Approval. December being the month when the men who compose the bulk of the Na- tion Guard of California are busy on ac- count of the holiday season, there will not be any drills in the armories until after the first meeting next January. The recommendations of the Secretary of War in relation to the national guard of the different States has been fully dis- cussed by the rank and file in this city, and the general opinion is that if the ideas of thé Secretary were carried out the guard in each. State would be in much better condition than at present in case it is called upon for active service. The suggestion that the guard should be armed as i8 the regular army is favored because it Is claimed that there is no good reason why there should be two kinds of arms in the service, particularly as the guard knows not when it may be called upon to serve with the regulars. If there should be a change it would undoubtedly arouse a spirit of military enthusiasm which has been remarkably on the wane of late, particularly in this city. The division commander has been re- | quested to permit the Fifth Infantry | Regiment to hold a regimental camp next year. It s likely that permission will be | granted and, If it is, the camp will be conducted on the lines of the regular army. This regiment has made arrange- ments for the next year's regimental shoot. | There i a coldness between the bat- | tertes of the artillery battalion, all on ac- | count of soclal relations. The batteries | are C and G of the old First, known as the Nationals, and F and K of the same | regiment, but “are now known by thelr artillery letters. | The four occupy 'the Ellis-street armory, and some time sitce it was suggested that all four should form a | grand soclal organization and everything was arranged, when it was discovered |that two men belonging to Captain Cunningham’s command were unsatisfac- | tory to those who compose the Nationals, and a request was made that they be d harged from the service. The reason as- signed was not deemed sufficlent and the | request was denled. That broke off all { soclal prospects between the Nationals ]nnd the other two batteries. Arrangements are being perfected for active work on board the Marion by ! the naval militla after the first week in January. There will be a grand promenade con- cert and naval militia ball in Odd Fel- lows' Hall on the etening of the 5th inst. under the auspices of the engineer diviston and band of the Naval Miltia of Califor: The committee in charge ex- pects that this function will be one of the most brilllan affairs ever given under any branch of the organization.

Cunningham and Miss Cleas Join Fortunes. Jovial Barytone’s Attempt to Deceive His Friends Proves Futile. — Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Nov. 30.—When Arthur G. Cunninghom, the barytone of the Tivoli Opera Company, now playing here, was asked this afternoon if he had been married, he promptly denied the soft im- peachment. “No, I haven't been married,” he sald, and then in a sudden burst of confidence he added, “but I will admit to you that 1 intend to be soon. It was my wish to have the ceremony performed In this city during our engagement here, but owing to personal business reasons we have put the event off for a week or two.” Just then Edward Webb, the tenor of the company, mildly lmewotgd the re- mark that he had been told phat a wed- ding had taken place, but the barytone again {nsisted it was not true. However, it was true, and the event occurred on the evening prior to Thanks- glving day. Mr. Cunningham on that day visited the County Clerk's office and pro- cured a license to wed Miss Lilllan L. Cleas, a singer, who was a member of the company at the Tivoll in S8an Fran- clsco. The proper authorization obtained, the services of Township Justice of the Peace Jay R. Brown were engaged and the happy pair were made one in the most impressive manner known to the magistrate. Attaches of the court were the witnesses. The bride left for San Francisco yesterday and the groom will follow to-morrow. TALLS FOUR STORIES AND IS CRUSHED TO DEATH ‘Walter Malloy Steps Into an Ele- vator Shaft and Is Killed.

The Mission police station, which was located on Howard and Seventeenth streets for the past twenty-three years, is a thing of the past. Lieutenant Ander- son and his family of bluecoats packed thelr official belongings yesterday and shifted quarters to the new building at Folsom and Seventeenth streets. . The new station is poorly adapted for its purpose. There is no accommodation for the horses or patrol wagon. This auxiliary to the modern equipment of a police station is two blocks away from the station, with no better facilities for responding to calls than what the telephone service affords. The cells are patched up from material taken from the City Hall Prison and screwed to the floor in a temporary sort of way. The rooms set apart for the use of the sergeants are so crowded that there is not room for a man to pass behind his neighbor without disturbing him at his desk, while the place set apart for the prison-keeper is commodious enough to afford sufficient room for the County Clerk to transact his official business.
