BE RKELEY, March 2L.—With gradus- tion only a scant six weeks away, the ereditors of the class of 193 at Berkeley, annual Blue and Gold proved a elephant of alarming avoirdupols, e commencing to worry about the pos- sibilities of collecting the sum of 3318 stiu due them by the manager of the class publication. Their restlessness was made the subject of discussion at a meeting of the senior class this morning. The situation is far from being encour- aging to the anxlous creditors. The former manager of the Blue and Gold, | Fred Reed, bas openly declared that he will not be held responsible, and the class in six weeks’ time will be scattered to the four corners of the earth. The class has reduced the debt from $500 | to its present figure by dint of minstrel shows and personal contributions, but new they seem to be at the end of their resources. When the question of paying the re- came before the meeting of the seniors this morning there | seemed to be many who were willing to fold their hands and allow the debt to But the more vigorous members of the class advocated an as- sessment which wouid cover the amount of the deficit. This presented a new dif- ff levy of about ¥ is usu to cover the heavy expenses the activities of ciass aily made attendant upon day. It was finally decided to await the end of the term and then to turn over the surplus remaining in the class treasury. Any deficit still remaining will then be arsessed fo HORSE DRAGS SOCIETY WOMAN FROM HER BUGGY OAKLAND, March 21.—Mrs. T. C. Mas- soelety residing 185 Walsworth avenue, was dragged from her buggy this morning on Lake street while a woman at driving toward her home. She sustained two severe fractures of the left leg and several lacerations of the head. Mrs. Masteller's horse became frightened at something in the road and jumped so suddenly to one side that the shafts were jerked from the patent clips that held them to the buggy. She was holding tight to the reins and when the horse began to jump she was dragged over the dashboard and thrown heavily to the ground. Spectators of the accident car- ried the injured woman to the home of George D. Greenwood, near the scene of the accident, and physicians were calle Afterward she wes removed to her home. —_——————————— LARGE CONSIGNMENTS OF RHUBARB GO EAST OAKLAND, March 2L.—Alameda Coun- ty rhubarb is finding a_ready market in the East this year.

Director Knox's plural- ity, as shown by the tabulations made te the City Council, is 3. The semi-official figures had left the vote of the two candidates so closely in | doubt that the official canvass was re- quired to decide the result. On the night of the election the returns favored Dr. Knox, but they changed and switched back and forth.
