The Board of Public Works yesterday adopted the recommendation of the City Engineer that permission be granted for & limited period of one year to the Unilon Ofl Company to maintain & spur track on Illinois street from the main track of the Santa Fe system. The recommenda- tion is made in view of the fact that the spur has already been constructed and its maintenance and use for a limited period will not inconvenience other interests. Attention is called to the fact that the width of Illinois street, between Sixteenth and Beventeenth, is 150 feet and that the improvements of the Union Oil Company occupy seventy feet of the easterly por- tion of this street. The company will be required to remove its improvements from the street within a reasonable time, The board fixed Wednesday, October 28, at 11 a. m., as the time for hearing ob- jections to the boundaries of the district to be assessed for changes of grades on Parnassus avenue. —_———— Insolvent Contractor, J. ©.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, Oct. 14. A secret marriage, which took place last Beptember at San Rafael, has just been made known and the friends of the bride and groom are wondering why they never guessed it. Miss Millile A.

Kane, with whom ghe resided until two weeks ago, called upon her sister lasl Monday ‘and announced her marriage to ‘William Rudgear, the son of A. Rudgear | of the firm of A. Merrill & Co. of San Francisco. There has been considerable coolness between the young couple and their rela- tives since the announcement of the wed- ding, for the relatives object to the mar- riage on the ground that both parties are too young. Mrs. Rudgear is a nfece of Charles H., Butler, a wholesale merchant” of this city, and is heiress to one-half the estate left by her mother, Mrs. B.

GUAYMAS, Mexico, Oct. 14.—Jesus Car- rara, an officer of the Twentieth Mexicaa | Battalion, lies dead as the result of a duel fought with Alberto Mungia, a Guay- mas merchant. The affair took place | Tuesday afternoon on the outskirts of Guaymas. The men met by appointment at a spot surrounded by trees and un- occupied adobe houses at the cormer of Twelfth avenue and Nineteenth street. They had previously, on the same day, engaged in a fight at a drinking place in the center of the city, when Mungia had attempted to stab his victim. He failed | in this, as bystanders separated the men, | but Mungia immediately challenged Car- | rara to a duel with swords. The latter accepted the challenge, and the men and their seconds were ready at the appolnted hour on the spot selected. Mungia thrust his sword through Carrara’s breast at the first fierce onslaught, killing his op- pital, where it was viewed by the authori- ties, while officers hastened to place Mun- gla under arrest. * [ NORTON- ESTATE Executors Are Here to Inspect Property of Millionaire.

READ MANY LETTERS IN LLOYD WILL CONTEST Defense Puts in the Day Going Over Correspondence Favorable to " Its Case. OAKLAND, Oct. 14.—In the Lloyd will contest to-day’ time was spent in the reading of a bundle of letters left by the | late capitalist. Mrs. Lloyd was on the stand during the entire day and identi- fied the numerous epistles as being in the handwriting of her husband, after which they were read to the court and jury. They were introduced on behalf of the defense, Marshal H. 8. Horton of Berkeley tes- tified that he once arrested Frederick | | { Lloyd, the author of the present suit, on the strength of a telegram from th er Lloyd, who asked to have his son t- ed, as he was crazy. He stated that while young Lloyd was under arrest he had been given a telegram stating that his father had been shot, and upon reading it promised ¥ he exclaimed “My God, to do anything for twen | and his friends to the scene of the crema- | making instead of mourning, and | about $750,000—was | nate acquaintance were | which usually were productive of financial banking firm of G.

Eventually he located | in Coronado, where he built a $60,000 cot- tage, and there he died. In his will he provided that his body should be cre-| mated in Cincinnati, and he set aside a | certain amount of money to be used for | chartering a traln to carry his remains tion. His will also provided that the cre- mation should be attended with merry- tha there should be “light music and plenty of refreshments, both liquid and solid.” The bulk of Norton's fortune—that is, bequeathed to the | Loulsville Baptist Orphans’ Home, an in. ktitutlon that had been fostered by the | deceased’s father, and numerous legacies were left to friends. The cottage at Coro- nado was given to the wife of James L. | Frazer, former superintendent of the| coast division of the Southern Pacific Company. Shortly after his death a number of the collateral heirs gave notice of their inten-| tion to contest the will on the ground tha.t‘ Captain Norton was not of sound mind when he executed it, and in support of | trteir contention they cited the eccentric provisions in the instrument and recalled the odd actions of the captain during the latter part of his life, among them the practice of wearing a policeman’s uni- form on certain days when his unfortu- invited to call on him and recite their hard luck stories, contributions from the captain. Barr and Willlam F. Norton, who are here, are, with a Louisville trust com- pany, the executors of the estate and have been preparing to combat the con- tentions of the dissatisfied heirs, or if pos. sible to compromise. Their visit to this State is for the purpose of looking over | the properties of the late Captain Norton. —_———— WOMAN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE BY SWALLOWING POISON Jealousy Prompts Mamie Pierce to Seek Death and She Takes Deadly Potion.

The City Chemist reports that the ex- amination of the stomach of Abram H. Kohn showed the presence of choral, but not of sufficient quantity to cause his death. Kohn, it will be remembered, died sud- denly last Friday morning at the Adler Sanatorium. The' attending physician, Dr. Gedge, and also those in charge of the sanatorium displayed an extraordi- nary amount of reticence when speaking on the subject, and it was rumored that Kohn had taken his own life. The report of the Chemist entirely digpels this idea. Marriage Li OAKLAND, Oct, 4. — The following marriage licenses were issued by the County Clerk to-day: Clarence H. Gray, over 21, and Eva F.

M.—| The third general assembly of the college | year was held in Assembly Hall this| morning. Charles K.

The assembly was | one of the.most successful ever held at| Stanford. Stanford’s two new prize songs were sung in public for the first - time this| morning, and the reception a¢corded them by the assemblage augurs well for their popularity in the future. ‘The Cardinal Song,” composed by Miss Alice Kimball, '04, was sung by Ralph H. Lachmund, '06, | and “Bum! Bum! Bum!"’ written by C.| H. Baker, '04, and H. E. Bush, '05, was rendered by the glee elub. | Yell Leader H. P.

He also stated that a| rally would be held Friday night to give | the freshman team a ‘‘send-off” on the| eve of their contest with the Berkeley | youngsters. . President Jordan's remarks were in re- gard to the Christlan Assoclation at Stan- ford. He commended its work as at pres- ent carried on, particularly in regard to the bureau for student employment, and noted the characteristics that college | Christian_assoclations should avold. Dr. | Jordan further stated that the university | inn would soon open under competent management. Professor Murray spoke of the work of the student guild in caring for the sick of' the university community, and ex- plained the necessity of all patients pay- ing the guild for the expenses incurred in caring for them. - | “‘Stanford Red,” written by Charles K. Field, '95, was sung as a compliment to the author before President Jordan in- troduced him. He was introduced as ‘‘coming before the students as a re- formed poet.” Field, known through his writings as “Carolus Ager,” dwelt on the experiénces of Stanford's ‘“ploneer days™ and on the inception of the “Stanford spirit” and the proper way of fostering ft.

ADVERSHRY - FROM BRODKLYN EO0D TEMPLAR Stereopticon Sereen I3 Torn Down by Angry Member. Brother Johnston Displays Little Love for Brother Crowhurst. iy Cries of “Police!” scrambling, tearing don, of paraphernalia and wild disordef in general followed the day meeting of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Or- der of Good Templars last night at 102 O'Farrell street, where the annual sess sion is being held. The day had been a busy one for the delegates. ' Five hundred of the order apose early and after breakfast visited the United States Mint, and then con- vened at their official rooms. The evening was to be devoted to the Juveniles of the order of Good Templars, and by request of the committee on juve~ nile work William Crowhurst of Oakland, one of the most indefatigable and enthu. slastic workers in the cause for which the order stands throughout the world, in obedience to. command hoisted a sheet and made .ready to throw upon the screen stereopticon views of the most important scenes which have been associated for years with the work of the Templars. Everything for a while looked as whita and spotless as the screen upon which the views weret to be thrown. While there had been friction at the privy councils of the order, nothing of a serious nature was expected at the evening meeting. THE TROUBLE BEGINS. At 7 o’clock, one hour after the day’'s meeting had adjourned, one of the mem bers, Andrew L. Johnston, entered the room and demanded of Brother Crow- hurst that he remove his spotless white sheet which served for the screem, take down the posts and carry away his ex- pensive lantern, which to aid in the | exhibition of rare Good Templar plctures. Crowhurst, who had reorganized the old Alameda County Lodge of the Independ- ent Order of Good Templars, which. it is believed rather upset the equilibrium of some members of District No, Lodge of San Francisco, of which Johnsfon member, flatly denied Johnston's ri interfere with his screen, his pic his lantern, and demanded the le given him by the sub-committee to treat the juvenile element of the Good Tem- plar order to tllustrations intimately related to the organization’s labors. Johnston, it is said, would hear né ex- planation, but simply tore down the screen, and there was confusion, demands and ejaculations. The janitor of 2 O’'Farrell street was summoned and a policeman was in turn called to follow the hasty footsteps of the guardian of the building. POLICEMAN ON DECK. Never before within ‘the recollection of Good Templars had such a scene been en- acted or witnessed by members of th order. The policeman asked what charge Mr. Johnston had to make agatnst Mr. Crow- hurst, who was demanding his rights as accorded him by the sub committee, and on the threshold informed the -worthy brother -that he could make no arrest without first being armed with a warrant. It was.some time before order was re- stored, but the screen had been torn down and_when -the juvenils members of the Ordeér of Good Hope cante with thetr smil- ing faces to participate in the harmony of the evening in accordance with ritual of the organization there were no beautiful pictures or allegortes for them to behold. Brother Crowhurst, though feeling his humiliation keenly, with fortitude and was surrounded by numerous sympathizers during the even- ing and a programme of music and song followed the harsh cries of “Police” and the ripping of the screen and the remov- ing of posts.
