A bold attempt of prisoners to cut ! their way through the walis of the County Jail was discovered to-day through the vigilance of the deputies under Sherift Bishop and that part of | the building in which they operated is now barred with heavy locks until the damage can be repaired. With a little more enlarging and a kick. the { outside row of bricks in the heavy wall | would have gone out and left a breach |large enough for a man to crawl ) | through. The peculiar part of the affair is that | it cannot be ascertained which of the | prisoners are guilty, but it is believed that a number were in the plot. Im- mediately under the jail office is a basement that has never been occupied. There is a small iron door leading into this basement that is always locked, but in some manner the prisoners pro- | cured a key to the door and, choosing a dark corner of the wall, started to dig for freedom. The part of the jail that communi- cates directly with this basement is | the kitchen, where six or eight pris- oners are employed, and it is believed | that while some were making a show of working one of their number was | busy burrowing in the wall. The door been double locked and barred un- | til some other means can be devised | to strengthen this part of the building. |[EVENTS IN SOCIETY OAKLAND, March 15.—Miss Ethel Kent end the young ladies who are to be her brides- maids yed several delightful hours to-day at the he rison street. the daintiest e of Miss Noelle de Golia, on Har- The day's festivity began with luncheons at noon, served ow of yellow jonquils arranged in profusion on the table. ~Covers were Miss Kent, Miss Kathicen Kent, Miss White, Mies Mattie Milton and Miss the afternoon a few other friends uite informaily, among these lat ng Miss Letitia Barry, Miss Isa- .

The Japanese wedding rites are per- formed at dead of night. Bride and groom enter the room from different doors. The apartment is dimly lighted and none but the best man is permit- ted there with the enchanted couple, for fear of the groom marrying the wrong girl in the dark. The best man seems to be the whole thing and his office is akin to the Chris- tian minister’s. First he introduces the bride and groom and then serves them and himself with cups of sake. Three drops of it are poured into three dif- ferent crescent shaped vessels, which graduate in size. Each of the trio drinks from each of these cups. This ceremony is called san san kudo. In the meantime the wedding party is regaled with a sort of low chant- ing, in which the best man and the guests in the other room participate. Afterward they eat dried Lsh, and the next day the friends of the bridal party come with presents and sit down to a great feast. These rites were all observed in the wedding of Miss Toshi and Mr. Ma- kino at midnight last Sunday in the groom's little home at 1546 Dwight way. —_————— Soon Wearies of Wedlock.

At present the di- verting ditch conveys the Sausal Creek debris into San Leandro Bay, spread- ing it over the flats south of Melrose. Between Fruitvale and High street there are four places where the levee against the south wall of the divert- ing ditch has fallen away, exposing the planking and piling to the action of the tides in the canal. The first of these landslides is about eight hundred feet west of Fruitvale avenue and is fifty feet wide. leaks in the bottom of the ditch at that point and through these the water of Sausal Creek is making its way into the tidal canal and undermining the ditch bottom. There is another large slide midway between Fruitvale ave- nue and High street and two other smaller ones. In some places the south wall of the diverting ditch is the only partition between that channel and the tidal canal. Sausal Creek is now higher than 1t has been for many seasons and a great body of water and slickens is coming down from the hills north of Fruitvale. The diverting ditch cost the United | States Government $55,000 to construct and should the bottom fall out of it in any place it will be worthless as a part of the Oakland Harbor project. City Engineer William R. Poyser, who has taken a close interest in the tidal canal since work was first com- menced on the big waterway, neariy twenty years ago, has closely observed the action of the tides on the banks of the channel and of the flood running through the diverting ditch. With ref- erence to them he said: I was surprised to notice how fast the cur- rents in the tidal canal have worn away tne north-side bank that divides the canal from the diverting ditch. It was originally in- tended to rivrap the banks of the canal to prevent Tom caving and making the channel shallow. It appears now that if this is not dome soon to the north-side bank. at least between Fruitvale avenue and Hizh street, the narrow strip of earth separat- ing the tidal canal from the south wali of the diverting ditch will be washed entirely away, leaving nothing to separate the but {hé unsupported planking and piling. With no dike to the south wall - sul the diverting aitch the tatter would be almost worthless. the banks of the tidal canal were riprapped as they should be the divert- liable to x5 fhe Grverting amet, e occur in Ing ditch debris will_then flow directly nto ‘e iat canal. ———— Labor Candidate Withdraws.

Dalton a decision of the Supreme Court directly against the position he has ‘aken in t’.e matter has forced him to the conclusim that this franchise is exempted by the Federal Govern- ment. “In this connection,” he said, “I have found a decision in the 9 Califonia Reports which states that by reason of the fact that the Gévernment has given the Western Un! n a franchise over its public “highways the company in re- turn gives Government messages pri- ority over any other business. By this means the Government carries out part of its powers of sovereignty. The rates are fixed by the Postmaster General, and it states directly that no State has the right to tax this franchise and that such an act is null and void. In the face of this decision flat against me, I do not see what I can do.” P The company paid taxes amounting to about $100 under protest and has brought suit to recover the money.

Did you ever see a rosebush which— despite the most beneficent enMgonment of soil—of sunshine—and of atmosphere -—seemed never to achieve a healthy growth. A ton of manure will not help a plant that has a canker eating out its heart. You must destroy the cause before you can remove the effect. You cannot cure dandruff and baldness by rubbing on hair lotions and rubbing in vaseline. ete.
