CONRAD RUPPEL KILLED BY AN ELECTRIC CAR While Crossing the Track Near Five- Mile House His Wagon Is Struck. ¢ Conrad Ruppel, who owns a hog rarch at 5118 Mission street, was killed at 6:30 o'clock yesterday morning by being run into by an electric car. Ruppel was driv- ing toward the business part of the city in his wagon, and while crossing the track near the Five-Mile House was run into by an electric car, which broke his wagon into kindling wood and hurled him a dis- tance of several yards away from the track. He was picked up unconscious and taken across the road to 4263 Mission street, and Dr.' E. W. Torello was called, but Ruppel died a few minutes after he had been picked up. The-tar that struck his wagon was coming into town, going |4n the same direction as Ruppel, and for that reason he falled to observe its ap- proach. Ruppel was a native of Ger- many, 55 years of age and was married. Autopsy Surgeon Bacigalupi found that death was caused by a puncture of the lungs and the fracture of several ribs.

Jenks Is‘ Announced After Husband’s Promotion, and They Receive Blessing o AKLAND; April 5—It has just been discovered that the oncs Miss Blanche McCarter, who lives on Bast Twentieth street and Twenty-third avenue, has "been Mrs. J. F. Jenks for four months, and that the wedding took place quietly on December 8§ at San Rafael. So quiet was the wedding that even theé parents and relatives of the couple did not know of it until this week. % . It all happened because the two young people wanted 10 wed and some of their relatives thought that financial conditions ‘were not exactly what they should be for such a step. Jenks was employed by the Southern Pacific Company, but the rela- tives thought the big corporation had not recognized the value of his services suf- ficlently to warrant matrimony. Miss McCarter was an employe of the tele- phone service in the East Oakland office, where she was known as one of the pret- tiest girls. The young people lived near each pther in East Oakland and had kno each other for the better part of thelr lives. They had made mud pies to- gether {n their childhood days, and when they reached the age of manhood and womanhood they decided that it would be the proper thing to make ples together of a more edible quality. BRIDE OF FOUR MONTHS, WHOSE MARRIAGE HAS JUST BECOME KNOWN. + el But there was some objection“on the part of some of the relatives. The young people felt, however, that they were the only ones to be consulted, and on Decem- ber 8 Jast they quietly went to San Rafael, where they securéd a license and were married. Then they both returned to Oakland, she to the switchboard In the East Oak- land telephone office and he to his work with the local service of the railroad. But on the first of the present month Mr. Jenks was promoted into‘the offices of the division headquarters at the Oakland mole. Then the young couple announced their wedding and their parents have ex- tended their blessing. L S A il i s e 2 oPRING VALLEY GET3 DESPERATE Concocts a New Scheme Aimed to Defeat Mrs. A Clough. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, April 5. In its desperation over the probability of a decision against it in the Clough suit the Spring Valley Water Works 1s charged with resorting to- still another subterfuge. A corporation was to-day or- ganized by some of its directors, the ulte- rior purpose of which is sald, to be the absorption of the Spring Valley’s stock in the Murray and Washington Township ‘Water Company, and leave nothing for Mrs. Clough should she win her suit, The Spring Valley is fearful that it will lose its suit with Mrs. Clough for the water rights of Alameda Creek, which means that it will be deprived of the privilege of taking any more of the dis- puted waters. The big corporation, own-' ing as it does most of the stock of the township company, tried to dissolye it a while ago in order to defeat Mrs. Clough, but an injunction stopped all that. Now the Central Water and Investment Company has been organized, with M. B. Kellogg and otner Spring Valley directcrs as incorporators. W. R. Davis, one of Mrs. Clough’s lawyers, says this is a scheme to get around the injunction. “The injunction prevents. the Sprin Valley dissolving the township company,” he says, “‘but there {s nothing to prevent it selling its stock to other people. It might sell to another set of people—this new corporation, for instance—and then we would be in the position of having to prove a conspiracy. They are laying deep schemes to beat us, and it will be a hard struggle.” IS CRUSHED ETWEEN FLATCARS .Underwood Receives Injury s Spine That May Result Fatally. nan employed on the trains haul- from the excavation for the ‘canal, was crushed between two flatcars this morning and badly Injured.

B. Daniels"Opronents Fail to Serve Subpena on Him. Judge Hall's Late Decision Said to Haye Discouraged Counsel. ¢ Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1113 Broadway, April 5. G. B. Daniels, managing editor of the Oakland Enquirer, escaped the ordeal of the witness stand in Judge Greene's court to-day, where he might have been forced to tell what he knows about Dr. Pardee’s and Assessor Dalton's interests In the paper, through the negligence of D. Ed- ward Colling’ attorneys, who did not force the examination that #hey announced early in the week. Editor Daniels has had several cscapes from the witness chair. He escaped from the Court Commissioner vne day while actually sitting in tHe chair and all the king’s horses and all, the king’s men couldn’t drag him back into it again. “The editor’s rivals at last hit upon the plan of having him testify before City Justice Stetson, but the Justice, on the advice of his attorney, who is also Dan- fels’ attorney, declined to have anything to do with the matter. When Collins" attorneys, Messrs. Ach and Richardson, tried to mandamus the Justice to issue a subpena Judge Greene found that every- thing was regular In the proceedings ex- cept that they had not tendered 25 cents as a fee and that proceeamg fell. Then Collins’ attorneys declared that that deposition would be taken before Judge Greene and all hands prepared to see another technical battle waged to- day. But it did not materialize. Messrs. Ach and Richardson had a week to act, but they did not even issue a supbena. The reason things were allowed to lle dormant, It i3 said, is because Ach is too busy, but the real reason, Collins’ ponents say, is that Judge Hall ln: found himseif powerless to take a deposi= tion or enforce a subpena for a deposition and that that makes them hopeless of getting a decision in their favor - ' MANY OBSTACLES BLOCK THIS YOUTH’S MARRIAGH Inability of Edward Mulhern to Stretch His Age Brings About Indignation Meeting.

They were refused a license. Then there was an indignation meeting. In which - all County Clerks, including *Cupld” Leslie were denounced, The third party said the boy had. no guardian to vouch for him because the late J. A. Fill- more, who onece acted in that capacity, is dead. Again, she sald, he couldn't get the consent of his father because they work at different times for the raliroad and hardly ever see each other. After a_wrangle that set the County Clerk’s office mad and. drew a crowd of spectators McKillican placated everybody by telling them he would carry a ligense around in his pocket and when they came with the consent he would fill it out. The wedding is set for Monday. —_——————— Woman to Become a Minister.
