L D e e ORKLAND'S FIRST MAYOR ON STAND Horace Carpentier Reap- pears in Answer to Summons. | l | | Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, Sept. 5. Horace Carpentier, Oakland's first Mayor, who secured from the city in return for a frame schoolhouse nearly all the city’s water front, was the prin- cipal witness in probating the will of Mrs, Alice Waite, formerly a wealthy woman of New York, in Judge worth’s court to-day. Despite his four-score years the ex- Mayor weas the picture of health. His skin was ruddy with a healthy glow, the effect of which was heightened by the financler's clerical garb and his snowy | white hair and beard. It was the first time in years that Oakland’'s venerable first Mayor has made his appearance in this eity. : Carpentier was called upon to testify to the signature of Mrs. Walte’s will, which disposes of property valued at $500,000. The ex-Mayor, together with M. H. Walker and Caroline B. Crocker, witnussed the execution of the will in New York, in March, 1900. The will was admitted to probate. The husband was named as executor, but de- clined to act. Attorney George Leving- ston of San Francisco, at the request of the husband, was appointed executor, with bonds fixed at ,000.

It was almost miraculous | that the big machine got out of the intri- cate tracks and switches about the yard uninjured. There was no damage done except to a yard switch that was “‘split” at the connection with the mole tracks. Master Mechanic W. H. Russell took charge of the work of raising the engine. It rests partly on the rock pile and the | edge of the pier. The tug Rival was gent | to move the engine, but could no nothing. The raising will be done by means of a | bridge resting on two scows.

OAKLAND, Sept. 5.—Elouise 8. de Velez, an aristocratic belle of Sal- vador’'s capital, was granted a divorce to- day from Juan de Velez, the wealthy man from Mexico, with titles bestowed upon him from three different nations. The ground on which the divorce was secured was extreme cruelty. Both have large in- comes, upward of $1500 per month. Senora de Velez did not ask for alimony, bBut was awarded the custody of their 5-year- old daughter, Marcia. De Velez's wife brought suit against him while he was lying in jajl awaiting trial for assaulting her with a pistol. Stlllman Wakeman was denied a divorce from_ Elizabeth Wakeman because of the insufficiency of the evidence. The husband alleged desertion, stating that his wife and_mother-in-law, while he was residing in Boston, drove him from home by their actions. He rays he was injured in a street railway accident and recelved $650. Because he would not give up all of this sum, while he was slowly recovering from his injuries, Wakeman says that his mother-in-law had him examined for in- sanity. He was discharged, but alleges he was afterward driven from home by his brother-in-law at a pistol’s point. The couple were married eleven years ago. Wakeman has resided in Berkeley for the last five years. | 5 Maty Counihan ‘was denled a divorce by Judge Ogden to-day from John Counihan on the ground of desertion.

LIVES OF PUPILS ARE IMPERILED School Children in Bus Escape Frightful Death. Careless Driver Places His Vehicle in Front of a Moving Train. ALAMEDA, Sept. 5.—George Anderson, driver of the School Department bus that conveys the children of Bay Farm Island to and from the Wilson School, and fif- teen of his little passengers narrowly es- caped being dashed to death yesterday afternoon by a local train near Eneinal avenue and High street. When Engineer John McCauley brought his locomotive to a stop the tender was within a few feet of the wagon-load of youngsters. Some of them, alarmed by the tooting of the engine whistle, had jumped from the bus and were directly in front of the on- coming train. McCauley’s promptness in preventing what seemed to be an ‘inevi- itable catastrophe won for him the high- est praise from the passengers on the train and evewitnesses. It appears that Driver Anderson, after securig his little passengers, allowed his team to walk leisurely on the crossing while he was in a brown study, all un- consclous of thef impending danger. Po- lice Otfficer Jesse Rogers, who was near by and observed the train approaching, shouted to Anderson to stop, but the lat- ter evidently did not hear or heed the warning, and continued driving ahead. Engineer McCauley applied the alr brakes with such pressure that the passengers on the train were pitched from their | seats. Driver Anderson’s carelessness will be investigated by the Board of Education. It is also probable that the Southern Pa- cific Company will be required to statioa a flagman at the High-street crossing, as it is a dangerous one, and several acci- ?ems have been barely averted there of ate.
