Helplessly intoxicated, Vivian Dun- can, 11 years old, and Tony Soares, 14 years of age, were arrested this after- noon at West Oakland by Patrolman McKeegan. The younger of the boys was staggering and maudlin from the effects of liquor and his companion was so badly overcome that he had to be carried in the arms of the policeman to the patrol wagon. The boys’ youth and their condition caused an immediate investigation by the police to ascertain where the liquor had been procured. It was traced to the Duncan boy's home at 805% Grove street. There, according to the people in ¢he house, Vivian had taken a demi- john of wine that stood in a closet and, with the assistance of Sbares, about emptied the vessel. Very quickly the liquor took effect and the youths wan- | dered toward West Oakland, becoming drunker and drunker every minute. Public attention was first attracted to the pair at Adeline-street station, where they were seen trying to steal cigars from a case in the Southern Pa- cific Compagy’s ticket agency. Leaving there the boys drifted apart. Police- man McKeegan was notified and start- ed in pursuit of the lads. He found Soares a few blocks west on Seventh street and sent him to the city prison and soon afterward landed Duncan. After Duncan bhad retovered his | speech he told the police that he had | taken the wine from his home and had drank freely of the intoxicating bever- age, Soares taking part in the debauch. The cases will receive the attention of the authorities for proper disposition. Whether the boys will be turned over to the Juvenile Court will be deter- mined when they are taken before the ¢ | Police Court to-morrow. —_———— ALAMEDA ORGANIZATIONS INSTALL NEW OFFICERS | Woodmen, Native Sons and Odd Fel- lows Hold Exercises at Their Various Meeting Places.

WED {ESDAY, SOCIETY DEVOTEES GATHER AT FASHIONABLE WEDDING Season ' Is Mamaoe of Miss Maud Cheek of Ozakland and James P. Sisson of Hawaii, Which Is Celebrated Bzfore a Throng of Guests and Relatives ] i HOME OF HER MOTHER. OAKLAND, Jan. 5.—The marriage of Miss Maud Cheek of this city and James Philip Sisson of Hawaii was sol- emnized this evening atethe home of the bride’s mother, Mrs. Sarah B. Cheek. It was the first large event of social importance since the begin- ning of the new year and was a bril- liant affair. The spacious rooms of the Castro-street residence were beautifuily | decorated, the arrangement of aspara- gus ferns and pink chrysanthemums being strikingly graceful and artistic. The most attractive work was that in which the happy pair plightea their troth. From one corner of the front drawing-room a canopy of smilax pro- jected over the bridal party, the apex of the triangle being caught up with a huge bow of pink chiffon, from which hung three large belis, chiffon. Another interesting feature of the decorations was a chime of silver toned bells that were suspended in the arch between the two drawing-rooms. Scarlet berries and delicate ferns were bilended prettily to adorn the hall and dining-room. The bride is a tall, slender girl, with very dark hair and eyes, and the bridal white was more than becoming. Her gown was of chiffon, the several rows of shirring drawing the skirt into graceful folds. The transparent yoke of shirred tulle was outlined with a wide bertha of duchesse lace. A single’ cluster of natural orange blossoms held the veil in place and the bridal bou- quet was a shower of lilies of the val- tey. Miss Grace Cheek attended her sister as maid of honor and her Trock of white organdie was the daintiest cre- ation imaginable. The shirred skirt was made over two other skirts of or- gandie and lace and a cape effect was given to the bodice by means of the long Van Dyke pcints of the lace edged collar. Bride roses in her bouquet gave the only touch of color to the dainty costume. The bridesmaids—Misses Carolyn and Anita Oliver, Miss Luacy Wilcox and Miss Ethel Atherstone—were gowned | alike in pink crepe, the skirts shirred and a white lace bertha finishing the bodice. Fach wore a tiny wreath of lilies of the valley in her hair and car- ried a shower of maidenhair fern and pink tulle. BEAUTIFUL GOWNS, The groom was attended by Norwcod McGilvary and the ribbon bearers were Roland Oliver, John D. Stubbs, Wil- liam D. Stubbs and Stanley V. Walton. Rey. Charles R. Brown, pastor of the First Congregational Church, was the officiating clergyman and the bride was given away by her uncle, Professor C. B. Bradley of the University of Cail- fornia. The bridal march from “Lohengrln" and other numbers were rehdered dur- ing the evening by an orchestra of stringed instruments. About 130 guests were present at the ceremony and many very beautiful gowns were noticeable in the assem- blage, the bride’s mother, Mrs. S. B. Cheek, wearing a particularly hand- some gown of lavender silk. A buffet supper was served, the bri- dal party being seated at a table rr- ranged in the wedding bower. Mr. and Mrs. Sisson will prolong their honeymoon for several weeks, vis- iting points of interest in California, before preparing to leave for their island home in Hilo, Hawail. Mr. Sisson is a civil engineer and has been connected with much important work on the islands. The bride is fond of athletics as well as the kindergarten work with which she has been actively identified, being a most enthusiastic basket ball player.

The City Council has called for bids for the construction of a system of drainage sewers, storm water and san- itary, for the relief of the Twenty-third avenue district, that for year after year has been flooded by the winter rains, making East Fourteenth street a sea and in many places impassable. This work the Council has ordered is on the watershed that is to be drained outside of the city limits by lateral sewers to be constructed by the Board of Supervisors. It is from the hill slopes back of the Twenty-third avenue territory that the bulk of the heavy volume of surface water flows into -the low places along FEast Fourteenth street. The Council’s plan of relief calls for drainage sewers on FEast Twenty- fourth and East Twenty-fitth streets, from Nineteenth to Twenty-tirst ave- nues, with outlets through Nineteenth and Twenty-first avenues from East Twenty-third to East Twenty-seventh streets. Cross drains will be used to carry off the surface waters into Sau- sal Creek by way of East Twenty-first street. As soon as the legal steps can be completed the work on tils system will be commenced and the relief which has been so strenuously demanded by the conditions In the district will be given.

After twenty years of litigation the project for the improvement of Four- teenth avenue (Commerce street) has been started toward consummation. The City Council has adopted a resqlu~ tion of intention to grade the thor- oughfare, which is now only a gully, from Fast Twelfth street to .East Twenty-second street. Included in this important scheme of improvement are many™~of the cross streets, contiguous to Fourteenth avenue. The grading resolution covers the fol- lowing cross streets: East Fifteenth, from Fourteenth to Fifteenth avenues; BEast Sixteenth, East Seventeenth, East Eighteenth, East Nineteenth and East Twentieth, all from Thirteenth to Fourteenth ave- nues; Hast Twentieth, from Sixteenth to Nineteenth avenues; East Twenty- first, from Thirteenth to Seventeenth avenues, and Seventeenth avenue, from East Nineteenth to East Twenty-third streets. The grading of this district will be followed as rapidly as pessible by the macadamizing, guttering and curbing of the newly made streets, and the opening to travel of a large section of the east side of the city that for many years has been under great incon- venience from the lack of thorough- fares. The opening of Fourteenth ave- nue will remove an obstacle to free ac- cess into the northern portion 'of the Seventh Ward. Much of the ecredit for the successful culmination of the long- projected plans rests with Councilman J. T. Wallace, the ward representative, and Councilman’ Edwin Meese, chair- man of the Street Committee. —_————— Residence at Stege Burned.
