The grape vines of California have been attacked by a new disease, that is, a disease that has never before been noticed | by viticulturists in this State. It is not | particularly destructive and now that it has been discovered it may be checked, but its effect will be to decrease the grape crop this year. The vineyardists of So- 2| noma and Napa counties are the greatest sufferers by this latest visitation. | The disease manifests itself by rotting the roots and stems, beginning at the top; turning the leaves red around the | veins, or wilting the stems of the leaves | or the tender young shoots that spring up at the base of the parent vine. | Professor E. H. Twight, Instructor in viticulture at the Unlversity of California, | has just réturned from an inspection of the affected vines. He believes they can be treated successfully and he has started | & series of experiments to cure the dis- ease. Whether the trouble is fungus or bacterial in origin Professor Twight has not yet determined. e S e In Juvenile Court. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—Under the new law concerning juveniles Delphine Strau- | ther and Harry Brown, two dependent and incorrigible children, will be exam- ined next Thursday by Judge Ellsworth and some disposition will be made of them under the provisions of the new act. Notice has been given those supposed to be interested in their cases to appear at that time, that they may be heard be- fore final action is taken in regard to them. PSS Start Park Improvement. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—Councilman BEdwi Meese, chairman of the streef committ® and Superintendent of Streets Charles F. | Ott have arranged to build a roadway into the new park site below Eighth street bridge that work may be started to fill the property with sweepings from the streets. The Board of Public Works paved the way for the inauguration of the im- provement of the site by making a con- tract with the street sweepers to dump their collections there. ————— P Butchers Grant Demands.

ERKELEY, Aug. 4—The tree surgeons are at work on the Uni- versity of California oaks. Those famous trees that almost every- body in the world has read or | heard about are submitting to a rejuven- | ating process. It may not be as palnful as the surgery practiced on human be- irgs, but it is doing a great deal of good and the patient old oaks will come out of the ordeal revivified and the betfer equipped to withstand the Pacific winds. Once in their lives oak trees—the Cali- fornia kind, that is—must be operated upon. Like human beings, as they grow older, . their vitality decreases. Thelr withered limbs get more crusty, and the dry rot takes hold of their trunks. In their young days, say when they were about 200 years old—for the university onks are estimated to be over 400 years of age—they were strong enough to shake off these manifestations of age. If the wind made a wound in the trunk of an oak it soon healed over with new bark; if a limb broke, it sent a new one to take its place. But In the Infirmity of old age the palsied tree can no longer cover up its injuries and it stretches out its scraggy arms to man, appealing to him for assistance in its distress. ARRESTING DISEASE. The most devitalizing afiliction of the oak {5 the dgy rot. This usually mani- fests itself a¥ the places on the trunk where the limbs have been broken or cut off. Before thé bark has had. time to shield- the wound, the weather gets into it and the wood rots away. Sometimes there will be a hole several feet deep where it is least suspected. If this dis- ease is not corrected it will eat its way into the heart of the tree, eventually kill- ing it. Professor W. A. Setchell of the botany department of the university has been watching with some apprehension the encroachments of the dry rot on the trees. Just before his departure for Europe re- cently he had a conference on the sub- ject with President Wheeler, to whom he said that something must be done to save the oaks, and done at once. President Wheeler was alive to the necessity of im. mediate treatment, and gave orders, therefore, to Grounds Superintendent A. L. Bolton to proceed according to Profes- sor Setchell's directions. In carrying out the instructions, Super- intendent Bolton, as chief surgeon, and the surgeons under him have been ten- derly solicitous for the fathers of the campus. In digging out the cavities and filling them with more wholesome stuff they have exercised the greatest care not to hurt the tree, though there must be ;nward groans when the drills pierce too ar. FILLED WITH CEMENT. Workers have proceeded by ridding the trees of all the dry rot, then disinfecting the exposed places with coal tar and fill- ing them with California cement. The cement takes the place. of the naturai wood and enough Is put into the cavity to bring it m}the edee of the bark. This leaves a surface oVer which the bark grows in time, thus enclosing the cement. If the cement was filled to the brim of the bark the bark would retarded in its growth and finally the tree would dfe. THe treatment of the trees has disclosedl some strange things. Most curious of these is an oak in which the letters “G R” were cut years ago in the bark. This left the wi exposed to the weather, which in time rotted deep, though it was not apparent until the operators began work upon it. In a few more years the tree would have died. Various are the tools used by the tree surgeons in prosecuting their labors, many of them not unlike those used by the M. D. There are scoops and spoons ENGLISH AGAIN GONFINED T0 BED Contra Costa Manager Under Doctor’s Care Once More. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Aug. 4. William D. English, vice president and manager of the Contra Costa Water Com- pany, is seriously ill at his home, corner of Tenth and Madison streets. It was thought at first that the trouble was the result of the operation recently performed for appendicitis, but Dr. D. D. Crowley, who is attending the patient, says there 1s nothing Ao indicate that such is the case. Mr. English had not entirely re- covered from the'weakness caused by the operation and it is thought he received & strain in getting in or out of his buggy. He was ordered by the doctor to re- main quiet for a few days in order that he might recover his strength and avoid danger of overexertion. If nothing more serfous develops Mr. English will be qut again in a week or ten davs. ———— In Divorce Court. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—The following di- vorce suits were instituted to-day: Salinas Smith vs. Jacob Smith, cruelty; Etta C. Brown vs. Harvey, Brown, crueity and desertion; Lucy E. Moore vs. Willlam W. Moore, intemperance and desertion. The suit of Eleanor Hunt vs. William Hunt, formerly of East Oakland, has been transferred from Los Angeles to this city. Petition for the dismissal of the suit brought by Edward Longan against Grace E. Léngan was filed to-day on the ground of lack of prosecution. New Bank at Livermore. LIVERMORE, Aug. 4—The new bank at Livermore has been opened for busi- ness. Its name is the Livermore Valley Bank, and the directors are: Thomas Crellin, H. C. Morris, 8. G. Murphy, W, G. Palmanteer, C. H. Wendte, James Concannon, August Hagemann, Joe Mec- Kown and F. R. Fassett. It is the purpose of the directors to erect a modern bank building at once. The following officers were elected by the board of directors: President, W. G. Pal manteer; vice president, C. H. Wendt cashier, L. M. McDonald. e—————— William T. Hamilton’s Will. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—The will of the late William T. Hamilton was filed for probate to-day. His estate is valued at $30,000. He bequeaths $12,000 to three of his sisters and divides $4000 among twen- ty nephews and nieces. The remainder of his estate he leaves to his adopted daugh- ter, Leola E. Hamilton, now 15 years of age. In his will he states that he does not mention his widow, as she is already provided for. @-imi il @ and drills and all sorts of instruments, all of them turned out for the purpose by the college blacksmith shop.

Bloodshed Stains the Record | of Struggle for an Old Man’s Geld. o s Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 118 Broadway, Aug. 4. | By the dismissal to-day of suit | brought by Catherine Boogar against Philip Boogar the records of the Superior Court were cleared of litigation, the his- | tory cf which runs the gamut of excit- ing ocerrrences that put to blush the vellowest of yellow backed dime novel | literature. Accusations from ~murde down, poisonings, abductions the ciink | of much gold, an old man’s Infatuation | for a buxom woman, divorce, bullets and a killing, police and detectives galore—all | contributed to the many chapters that made Boogar vs. Boogar a case cele- brated in the annals of Alameda County. Beginning with a battle between the | young wife and her aged spouse for pos- | session of his fortune, the dramatic nar- | rative closed with the shooting of Philip | Boogar by Michael Collins, his wife's father. . The suit in point was brought by Mrs. | Boogar on a charge that the old man had | put his fortune out of her reach. A | divorce sult instituted about the same | time was replete with sensation. Cruel-| ties charged against old Boogar were met | by counter accusations that attempts had | been made by Mrs. Boogar to poison her husband. Detectives by the dozen hov- | ered about the couple. The old German | was hustled about from place to place, | hidden from his wife, who pursued and | for years kept open battle over the old man’s pots of gold_for it was estimated he was worth $100,000. | The tenston became so strong that one day old Michael Collins met Boogar on Eighth street in front of the Galindo Ho- tel and shot the old man. Boogar died soon afterward.

EST0 GAN TERMINAL SITE Southern Pacific Plans| | Concentration of | Local Freight. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, Aug. 4. | The Southern Pacific Company has | brought a condemnation suit in the Su- | perior Court to acquire a portion of the block facing Fifth street, between Cypress and Kirkham, ' to complete its holdings between Center and | Cypress streets, below Fifth, where a local freight yard terminal is to be es- tablished. Plans for the new terminus, which ad- | Joins the property lately acquired by the Western Pacific Railroad at the fool of | Union street, contemplate the abandon- | ment of Sixteenth-street depot and First and Market streets as freight points and the concentration of all local freight traf- | fic at the Fifth-street yards. The site has a frontage of 625 feet on Fifth street | and 1036 feet on Cypress street. The company purposes, it is understood, to use the new location exclu- | sively for a local freight service, | thus reducing the cost of switch-| ing and the delay in moving of cars after they are sent to the West Oakland yards and now hauled to the Sixteenth-street or the First-street depots. Filling for new tracks and depot buiid- ings is in progress at the new site. It is not expected, however, in view of the large amount of work necessary, that the new yards will be ready for business under a year. Most of the land to be oc- cupled is marshy and requires a heavy fill. —_——— FOUND ON STREETS IN HALF-CLAD CONDITION | Rose Cavin, Partly Demented Nurse, | Taken to Receiving Hospital Suffering From Exposure. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—Half clad and | with her feet bare, Rose Cavin, a nurse, | was found roaming the streets this after- | noon at Thirty-eighth street and Tele- sraph avenue in a partly demented condi- tion. She was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where she was held under ob- servation. The indications are that over- | work and using stimulants are responsi- ble for her condition. The cold day had chilled her and the exposure adding to her overwrought con- dition had the effect of making her | speech almost unintelligible. She stated | that she had been divorced from her hus- | band, whose name was Scott, last Feb- ruary. The papers in the case show that | Scott got the divorce on the ground of | cruelty, she being addicted to the use of| intoxicants. She is 23 years of age. —_———— Raid on Junk Dealers. OAKLAND, Aug. 4—The police have be- | gun a crusade against those junk dealers that purchase such wares from persons under 16 years of age in violation of the law. Mrs. Sarah Jacobs, an East Oak- land vender, was arraigned in the Police Court to-day on a charge of buying lead pipe from a boy. Detectives say petty | thievery by youthful miscreants is fos- tered by the ease with which such plunder can be converted into coin ——————— Dies at Ninety-One Years. BERKELEY, Aug. 4—Daniel King died at the age of 91 years to-day at the home of his son, P. G. King, of 1311 Ashby ave- nue.

Every Branch of the Depart- ment Is Covered Minutely. i, S PR A report that will be of particular in- terest to all eclasses of citizens and to students of criminology in particular will be subs ed to his Homor the Mayor to- day by Chief of Police Wittman. The report is a voluminous document and glves evidence of careful preparation. It deajs minutely with all branches of the epartment of which Chief Wittman is the official héad, even the number of runs made by the “muniéfpal carriages,” com- monly designated in the vernacular of the street wrchins as “hurry up wagons, being computed, and the number of miles traversed along the highways and by- ways of the city are given. During thé fiscal year ended June 3, 29336 arrests were made and 10,111 per- sons were detained. Of this number 15,766 were taken Into custody and incar- cerated for overindulgence in malt, fer- mented or spirituous beverages. For fail- ure to heed the expectoration ordinance 51 men suffered the indignity of being compelled to appear before one of the police magistrates. For disturbing the peace and quietude of the municipality 1968 were haled into court, and 368 mendi- cants were taken in for asking alms from the sympathetic pedestrians. CAUSES OF ARREST. Of burglars 261 were captured and 23 men came to grief while making attempts at burglary. Three hundred and seventy- eight slaves of oplum and 51 keepers of establishments where the drug is enjoyed were rudely disturbed by the ever vigilant patrolmen. One hundred and twenty- seven deserters from the army were ap- prehended and turned ov to the mill- tary authoritics. Vagrants to the number of 2233 came to grief. The other causes of arrests were as fol- Assault to murder, 120; battery lar tools In pessession, 17: felon, ntan y larceny 38; manslaughter, possession, grand larceny, cious mischief, , 9; murder, §; robbery threats to In addition to those arrested for these pecific offenses 2651 were arrested for and 421 on felony The most arrests were made in and the least in June of this year, when 2104 were arrested. A comparison of the number of police and arrests made dur- ing the fiscal year ending June 30, 1574, and the one just closed is interesting. Dur- ing the year 1873-74 there were 121 police nd 13,007 arrests, and during the last year 643 police and 20,336 arrests. The amount of property reported lost or stolen aggregated the large sum of $112.783 65, of which $68,072 08 was recov- ered. Ninety-elght fugitives from jus- tice were apprenended in this city and taken back to stand trial. That the City | Prison is a Mecca for the homeless is at- tested by the fact that 5146 were given accommodation. Fourteen prisoners aped. Chinese to the number of 2124 and Japanese were brought in during the year. The total amount of fines paid into the city treasury upon convictions in the po- lice courts was $22.891. That portion of the report dealing with the Police Commission furnishes inter- esting reading. The tatal number of li- censed places In the ¢fty coming under the jurisdiction of that body is 3085, show- ing an increase of 48 for the year. Of ap- plications for permits 13,664 were re- ceived, of which 279 were refused. Res- taurants to the number of 380 hold li- censes to sell liquor with meals. Thére are 618 employes of the Police Department. During the year 102 were appointed, 10 resigned, 9 died, 8 were dis- missed and 15 retired. The patrol wagon made 23,318 runs and covered a distance of 39,249% miles. —E e e Marriage Licenses.
