H. Augustine of San Rafael. It wa a quiet home affair, attended only by relatives and a few intimate friends. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F. 8.

A wedding supper followed the ceremony. The bride formerly lived with her par- ents in Berkeley and was a student at the University of California, being a member of the class of 1%2. M.

An unfortunate was sent with a dis- patch to one of the smaller outposts in the far Northwest. It was toward spring, when the midday sun thaws the surface of the snow and the light frosts harden the melted cruste to a glace of ice as daz- zlingly bright as the blinding fiashes of sunlight from polished steel. The thaw had crusted over the trail and the scout had to keep a sharp eye on the way not to lose the path altogether. Suddenly the midday sun developed extraordinary hues. Magenta, purple and black patches began to dance on the show, alternately with wheels and rockets of cheese coiored fire. Then the Ilight went out altogether, though the man knew that it was broad day. He had become snow blind. The only thing was to give his horse the bit. The horse stood stock still. By that time he knew that he had lost the trail altogether or the broncho would have fol- lowed any visible path. He whaeled the horse about. It still refused to go on and then the man inferred that the crust of ice had been so hard that the horse could not follow back the way it had come. That night the trooper slept under saddle blankets, with the faithful horse standing sentrv. For five days the policeman wandered blindly over the pralrie, losing all count of time, eating snow to quench his thirst and sleeping in the holes that the bron- cho had pawed through the ice crust to the under grass. The trooper was now too weak to mount and keep the saddle. As a last hope the thought struck him that if he unsaddled his horse and turned it loose it might find Its way back to the fort and so notify his friends that he was lost. He did this, but the faithful crea- ture refused to leave the man lying on the snow and stood over him in spite of all his efforts to drive it off. On the sixth day the mall carrier found the pair. The trooper was severely frozen, but the ter they had made their plea reliv frowning, said sternly: our master if he does not sub- 1 will make all Persia as bald ng corn and trees as my own emy ze the threat he removed his and brought to view a scalp as smooth =hining as & billiard ball.—New Yorl 8. rider and horse lived to see many anoth- er day’'s service. — ee————— While a child was playing on the floor of a house at Costesht{, Roumania, some turkeys strayed in.

Not all the humor of the daily press is to be found in its alleged funny col- umns—not by a long shot! The average reader certainly would not seek it in the “small ads,” but one man who believes that he can recognize fun even without a label, asserts that the “want” columns | of the local papers are simply brimming over with it and none the less irresistible, much of it, for its bland unconsclousness. In support of his statement he drew the | other day from one of the pigeon-holes of his desk a loose handful of clippings from the classified ads of the local pa- pers. Some of them are really too good to be true. They remind one of the stock jokes about a piano for sale “by a young lady with carved legs.” The writer had always supposed that to be the invention of some frivolous minded man, moved by a desire to make merry at the expense of some superior woman. But these—well, there was no mistaking these—they really happened, every one of them, and in local papers. There was no doubt as to the genuineness of the clippings. The first one read: TALL, educated, professional widower (past middle age), no incumbrance, with ample in- come and a fine suburban home, desires to marry before Christmas. Address D., Ye gods and little fishes! What did the man expect? In vain does the fowler epread his net in sight of the bird! Would any girl with her eyes open marry a “professional widower?’ There’s a nice profession for a man. What shall it profit a girl Is she gain a tall, educated wid- ower (without incumbrances), an ample income and a fine suburban home?

Application for Franchise for Broad Gauge Line Will Be Withdrawn. P —— ALAMEDA, Augi 14—Members of the Citizens’ Committee of Fifty and of the Board of City Trustees have been ap- prised of the intention of the Southern Pacific Company to next Monday night withdraw its application for a franchise on the north side or Railroad avenue line. The application for a renewal of a fran- chise on the south side or Encinal avenue line will be allowed to remain on the file to be acted upon by the City Trustees. It was also given out to-day by a repre- sentative of the Southern Pacific that on next Monday night there will be filed with the City Trustees a communication explaining the present attitude of the management of the corporation with re- spect to the matter of the franchises. It is announced that-in that document the company will state its refusal to pay anything for the south side franchise; that it will be willing to grant a two- and-a-half-cent local fare, good until used; that it does not intend to pull up its tracks in Alameda unless compelled by the attitude of the Alameda public to do so; that the management is desirous of having the agitation settled one way or another as soon as nossible so that the company may determine whether it will expend $75,000 or $350,000 on improve- ments at the Alameda Mole; that the officlals of the Southern Pacific will hold no more conferences with the people of Alameda, but will leave the latter to adjust the franchises as they see fit and when they feel like doing so. It is also understood that in the letter the com- pany will guarantee to give Alameda as good service as it is now receiving and make improvements as rapidly &s cir- cumstances will permit. It is said that the management of the Southern Pacific < taken to heart the troubles of the people of Alameda with the company and the demands made by them, and regrets that the situation is not amiable. If the city refuses to grant the Southern Pacific a twenty-five year franchise on the south side line it is planned by the corporation to divert all through traffic from a point near San Lorenao to the main line' running through San Leandro and into Oakland. The City Trustees did not take up the matter of the railroad franchises to- night, as City Attorney Simpson was not ready with the documents. UNIVERSITYEVENTS BFRKELEY, Aug. 14.—Professor John Fryer of the department of Oriental languages, who has just returned from a trip abroad, met former Mayor Carpentier of Oakland in New York, from whom he received the voluntary promise of money to increase his endowment of the chalr of Oriental languages and litera- ture at this university. Mr. Carpentier did not say how much he would give. The work of removing the Hearst Archaeo- logical Museum to & buflding of the Affiliated Colleges in San Francisco began this morning under the direction of Dr. C. L. Kroeber.

All this present talk about “race sui- cide” suggests at least one interesting idea. The large cities are no places for the rearing of large familles. Cities are simply intensified centers of social, indus- trial and commercial activity, necessarily crowded, necessarily huddled, and suita< ble to live in only because what some men must do and_what some men must have is there to be done and to be got. The country and the town are the feeders for the city, for city stock decays after a time in the modern rush. The city is the place to concentrate racial and indi- vidual energy on the public needs; it is not the place for race replenishment. Nations are liable to die at the top; they get bald before they lose the strength of their legs; and the replenishment of the brain must come from the heart and the lungs, not from itseif. Let the country- side and the towns continue to rear sturdy citizens and continue to send some of them, with an Increasingly Improved equipment, to take up the struggle in the cities.—The Week's Progress. .-l—l—l-l—l—l—l—i—l—l—l—l—l-'l-l—l-l-l-l-l-l-l—x-. particular as to what sort ef a situation he takes: WANTED—A situation as a son-in-law, by a some respectable respectable gentleman, in family; good blood and breeding not neces- sary. being already well supplied; capital essential; no oblections to going & short dis- tance info the country.

AMES PASSES AWAY AT HIS OLD HOME He Had Been a Prominent — Factor in the Political History of This State, and Once Clashed Arms' With George C. Pardee in Oakland in a Contest for the Mayoralty %* AKLAND, Aug. 4.—Josiah P. Ames, who is better known out- side of Oakland than in his home city, died suddenly this morning at his ranch between Oakland and Martinez of heart fallure. He was 76 years of age. The body was shipped to Oakland to-day and it is probable that the funeral will be held on Sunday. Mr. Ames was an active factor in poli- tics in this State. He was a native of England, but came to this country when a young man. and preceded the go. rush to California, having arrived here in 1343 as a member of the famous ‘‘Stevenson Regiment.” 1le left that organization at the Presidio of Monterey in 1849 and worked in the mines at mokelumne Hill, Salmon River, Scott River and other places in Calaveras and Amador counties until 1855, He then changed from miner to farmer and located near Halfmoon Bay, in San Mateo County. For fifteen years he was a member of the Board of Supervisors of San Mateo County and at the end of that time he was elected to the Legislature. At that session he became a friend of George C. Perkins, and when Mr. Perkins was elected Gov- crnor Mr. Ames was made Warden of San Quentin prison, and served in that capacity for one term. He then removed to Oakland and took an active interest in politics until 159, when he was nomi- nated for Mayor on the Republican tick- et. Dr. George C. Pardee led the revoilt against the nomination of Mr. Ames and walked out of the convention that placed - > v L3 e 4 PROMINENT POLITICIAN WHO DIED SUDDENLY NEAR MARTINEZ YESTERDAY. B e — ] him before the people. Dr. Pardee joined with the Democrats in a citizens’ move- ment and defeated Mr. Ames with John R. Glascock. After that Mr. Ames re- tired from active business and politics, and for some years had been living quiet- ly on his ranch in the Alhambra Valley, where he died, Mr. Ames was prominent in San Fran- cisco business affairs as the senior mem- ber of the firm of Ames & Detrick, which later became the firm of Ames & Harrls, manufacturersr of grain bags, cordage and jute products. He was a prominent member of the Masons, being a past mas- ter in the order, also a past noble grand in the Odd Fellows and a member of the Society of Ploneers of California.

Dalton began suit this afternoon against the county of Ala- meda for $4750 back pay, which the Super- visors have held ‘back owing to the fact that the county has judgments against him for something more than $12,000, and they have been endeavoring to square matters by retaining his sal- ary. They have been felicitating them- selves upon the fact that every month $350 remained in the treasury Instead of golng into Dalton’s pockets, and it has been nearly a year and a half since he has drawn any pay. It has looked, however, as if the county had small chance of catching up with him, even at this rate, for he was al- lowed to get a good start before this scheme was hit upon. For a number of véars Dalton has pre- pared the assessment rolls for Oakland and for this he has been }ld at the rate of 5 cents a follo. For each year this work amounted to about $3000. This year it was about $3200. ‘When the county government act went into effect all county officers were given regular salaries and the fee system was abolished. Dalton’s salary is $4000 a year. In addition to this, however, he has each vear retained the amount received from the city of Oakland for his private use, with the exception of what the work dctually cost. As testified to before the late Grand Jury it cost Dalton 38 to prepare the assessment roll this year, for which he collected from the city of Oak- land $3200. Each year the Grand Jury has instructed the Board of Supervisors to bring suit and the courts have decided against him and given the county judg- ments for sums aggregating more than ,000. mflufly a year and a half ago they be. gan to hold back his salary and he has now begun an action to recover this amount. According to Attorney Carl Ab- bott, who represents Dalton in this mat- ter, suit was begun at this time for fear that the two years might elapse and the statute of limitations be pleaded as a bar to the recovery of the money. —_———————— ts of stone suitable for lith- Large depos ogral purposes have been i Thessaly.

PRINTING BILL NOW IN GOURTS Famous Three-Cornered Fight Is to Be Adjudicated. —— Oakland Office 8an Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Aug. 14. Suit was commenced to-day against Ala- meda County for a' bill of $344 that has become famous. The plaintiff is the Oak- land Enquirer Publishing Company, and it alleges that the county owes it the money for printing done nearly two years ago. The claim has been the .cause of endless trouble, and seemingly the end is not yet, There are two claimants for the money, and between their adverse interests the Board of Supervisors has beén unable to decide who has the better right to it. This is the outcome of the famous $1500 claim which resulted in the indictment of County Assessor Henry P. Dalton, G. B. Daniels and George Oakes in what the Grand Jury said was an attempt on the part of these men to defraud the county. Dalton gave an order for printing for this amount to George Oakes, and the money was pald by the Supervisors to Oakes and Daniels, who turned the money over to Dalton. It was afterward discovered that the printing had never been done. On the day Dalton was to be brought to trial he paid the amount into the county treasury and the case fell. It was contended at that time by Dal- ton that owing to a miscalculation the order had to be abandoned, but another had been given In its place. This was for 3944, Fifty-nine plat books at $16 each were printed. The order was hypothecated to Mrs. Putnam, a sister of M. de L. Had- ley, who was the business manager of the Enquirer Publishing Company. She was led to believe she could make a small fee by advancing the money, which she did. Between Russell Steadman, an agent of the company, who received the money, and Dalton the money was lost in the shuffle. Steadman claims he gave the money to Daiton, and Dalton claims that if any money was Steadman kept it himself. The Ennquirer never received it, and Mrs. Putnam holds the hypothe- cated anlerh n‘l'mhn u:nhnlnon con- ducting a ore pervisors, mqnm":n now taken the mat- cou & g ity astounding no- vation,” as no previous Shah has had un- der 1500, = ~ - : SNEWS OF THE COUNTY J_, ‘OF ALAMEDA | 4 i — GHILDREN MEET WITh ACCIDENTS Two Trustees’ Offspring Drink Oil and Run Into Trees.

Now that the City Council has regulated the length of boxing contests and the stand- ing of clubs, it is likely that regular monthly exhibitions will be given in this city, as was done before the flasco pulled oft by Dan Crowley at Dietz Opera-house killed the boxing game here about the first of the year. —_— Hotel Superstitions. Most hotel clerks dislike to see the reg- ister closed. Some of them say that their desire to have it remain open is in order that it may be ready for the signatute of guests. But there are other clerks who don’t mind telling the real reasom. It is because they have a feeling that it is unlucky to close the register. It is a sorg of superstition, just as other people have against doing things on Friday, or be- ginning a_journey on the th of the month. Hotels are not more given to superstition than are people, although there is no room No. 13 in most of them. ‘While the superstition is not generally well known among people who travel, it does not often happen that a clerk is compelled to rush to the desk, in order to prevent a guest from closing the book. That is what happened at one of the big hotels recently, and it was because the absent-minded man would have closed the book that the clerk told of the feel- ing most hotel clerks have about the bad luck that will follow the closing of the register. It is a good deal like the men- tal attitude of the small boy who crossey his fingers when a cross-eyed parson looks at him. “Qf course,” said the clerk, “T do not think it makes any difference. In fact, I am sure it ddesn’t—but I never allow the book to be closed during my watch'if I can beat the other fellow to it. Hotel registers are to be written in, anyway, and a man can’t write in them if they are closed.”—Kansas City Journal. ———————— Leaves Money to Stop Vice.
