Having been provided with $4000 for the purpose by the Board of Regents, the special committee ap- pointed by President Wheeler to ar- range for an exhibit showing the ac- tivities of the University of California to-day began in earnest on the task of gathering materials and data. By way of preliminary Professor E. J. Wick- son, chairman of the committee, ap- pointed the following named members to work upon special matters: Photographic representation, Pro- fessor S. B. Christy; astronomical statistics, Professor A. O. Lueschner andyDr. W. W. Campbell; university literdture, Professor Elmer E. Brown; general plans and installation, Profes- | sor John Galen Howard. Among the things planned for is a relief map of the university grounds, 5x10 feet, now being constructed by Architect Howard; a new mechanism for psychology built by Professor | George M. Stratton, and exhibits from the anthropological department, show- ing original methods for dealing with the native Indians and their languages; diagrams and pamphlets showing the present and prospective equipment of the university, these to be distributed. Plans for the space assigned to the university by the St, Louis Exposi- tion officials have been received by the committee. The assignment is of a square pavilion at the northeast cor- ner of the Palace of Education. This building stands at the center of the four main avenues of the -exposition grounds. The pavilion has the great advantage of being the coolest station during the hot months and it is also adjacent to the exhibit of the State of California. It will be splendidly lighted and is capable of a most ef- fective and ‘artistic treatment in the display of the university. —_——————— News of the Labor Unions. OAKLAND, Feb. 17.—H. T.

Mrs® Eugene Casserly Says She Owns Part of the Prop- erty Never Before Disputed — Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Feb. 17. ‘What the site of Alameda County's courthouse looked like fifty years ago is the subject of inquiry in a suit now be- llng tried in which Mrs. Eugene Casser- ly is trying to assert her right to a one-sixteenth interest in the land now supposed to be worth $250,000. They | were all old witnesses who testified in the building which has served Alameda | County as a courthouse for a quarter of a century. Attorneys for the plaintiff rested their case with the introduction of an old| Mexican grant of the land conveying | the title to Domingo and Vincente Peralta, written in Spanish, and a deed from them to Senator Eugene Casserly. The claim is made that there the title ends and that his interest lies in com- mon with the county and is a co-tenant with the county. The claim of District Attorney Allen is that the county has been in undis- | puted possession of the premises for half a century and witnesses were called to prove this. George Chase, James Webster, Lasery Rosenberg, Munro Hummeltenberg, Alfred W. Bur- rell, Henry Maloon and J. Tyrrel had | all known the premises from the early fifties. They stated that the land was first used as a plaza. Where the courthouse now stands there was a pavilion in which they had fandangos. Sometimes the place was the scene of a fair. One of them remembered a man named Sabe Harris who used to exhibit the largest pair of oxen in the country and the animals used to stand almost di- rectly beneath the judge's chair. A square steel box served as a jail and was called the calaboose. It stood alone, was divided into two rooms and stood without covering until one hot day in midsummer a man was nearly roasted in it and at night almost frozen to death. A roof was afterward built over it. What was known as the Fulton en- gine house stood at another corner. The | old engine is still in use and is now used for flushing sewers. The land was | the county’s playground in those days and has been occupled ever since. LADIES ELECT NEW OFFICERS Members of the Young Women's 3 Christian Association Dis- cuss Work of Present Year ROy Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, February 17. The officers who will serve the Young Women's Christian Association during the present year were elected at the annual meeting of the association, held last night at the headquarters, 1424 Franklin street. Those selected to di- rect the affairs of the association were. Honorary president, Mrs. P. D. Browne; president, Mrs. J. P. Ames; vice presidents, Mrs. William Kirk; re- cording secretary, Miss Eliza ‘Wolfen- den; corresponding secretary, Miss Pauline Collins; treasurer, Mrs. Rees B. Thompson; board of directors, Mrs. P.

Cole and Miss Eliza Wol- fenden. After the election of officers, the an- nual reports were read, and the ladies then took up the subject of the East Oakland Settlement. During the dis- cussion the president, Mrs. J. P. Ames, said: Our East End work has been carried on for years in the face of difficulties—in a build- ing altogether too inadequate to our needs—and sreat credit is due to our East End committee, Which bas 80 bravely worked among so many adverse conditions. More helpers are needed and we hope to enlist your interest so that you may be induced to give a portion of your time to this work. WIith very little labor you will be doing a great good. This is something that every one can do and have a part in the good We hope to accomplish. Anether thing we hope {o achieve in the near future is the buflding at Camp Meeker of & Rest Home for our young ladies here. Following the address of the pres- ident a special committee of fifty la- dies was appointed, each pledging her- self to raise $10 to pay off the indebt- edness on the East Oakland Settlement building. P — HIDES TRACE OF IDENTITY Canning of Man Who Com- mitted Suicide Baffles Those Whoe Would Learn His Name A ERE EVERY it ek S Contents of Memorandum Book Lead to Belief That Deceased Was a Commereial Travelerl DESTROY CLUE Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Feb. 17. The ‘cunning exhibited by the uniden- tified man who committed suicide on Monday night by inhaling gas at the tion of his remains has thus far baffled | the living. He died with the wish, ex- pressed in a last letter to the world, hat no effort be made to identify him. 1is clothing, letters and even his um- brella handle had every vestige of a name removed from them. Many per- sons called at the Morgue to-day, but were unable to shed any light on the mystery. Among the things left by ceased were five memorandum books bearing the stamp of various whole- sale houses in the East, principally in| the States of Kansas and Indiana.| This fact, together with his clothing the de- the surmise that he may have been a | commercial traveler. His handwriting indicates that he followed some occu pation in which there was much writ- ing. The right hand of the suicide was | marked with a scar on the back and | the third and little fingers were bent| so as to prevent him from closing his | hand completely. No other scars were visible to serve to identify him. The extreme pains taken to conceal | his name leads those in the Coroner’s office to believe he may have been a man of importance or that there was | some unusual cause for him wishing to remain unknown forever. The only reason given by the deceased in his let- ter was that he had made a failure of life and did not want his relatives to know.
