She has been gone since Saturday, March 26, and the family has become very much agitated over her absence. On the evening in question she told her mother that she was going to tike | a little walk around the block and that was the last that was seen of her by those at home. Apparently she took no clothing and she has not communi- cated with her parents since that time. She was engaged to James Brock and Was shortly to have been married.

Plerce of Oakland. The |commissioners have been at work for several months collecting ex- hibits, preparing literature and secur- ing headquarters that will be not only a depository for the products of the two counties, but will serve as head- quarters for the people from Alameda and Contra Costa counties who will visit the fair. This was done through the efforts of W. H. Weilbye, who is an architect and builder, and he was the one who prepared the design and will superintend its construction. The building will be done in St. Louis. This exhibit is very comprehensive. It covers the varied industries and products of the two counties and filled four cars, three from Alameda County and one from Contra Costa. The Alameda County exhibit in- cludes 400 jars of cereals, 240 jars of fruit, seventy cases of preserved fruiis and jams, barrels of corn, beans and barley and nuts.of various kinds and other agricultural products. The in- teresting -and unusual exhibits made Wil be those from the great salt fields of Mount Bden, the hop fields of Pleasanton and the nurseries of Niles. These are all in miniature, but are very unusual. There are samples of the mining industries of Alameda County in the shape of coal, magnisite, manganese and quicksilver from near Livermore, and pottery clay, glass and glass sand from Tesla. The Contra Costa exhibit is com- prised of fruit, grains, grapes and wines and various mineral products, in which the county abounds. The wine exhibit will be particularly fine, the best varieties from the Liver- more Valley, the old Mission San Jose and the Ignacio and Alhambra valleys being utilized. It is claimed that for variety of products this will be one of the finest to be seen at St. Louis. There will be plenty of literature, hundreds upon hundreds of photegraphs, files of the California papers, and a welcome for all. —_————— OAKLAND, April 6.—Rev.

Sharwood, the instructor at the University of California who was sandbagged by two thugs at mid- night last ht, recovered sufficiently | from: the shock of his experience to- day to give a more detailed account of the attack upon him. Sharweod was so dazed.after the attack that he fell unconscious after walking a block toward his home, and at first it was thought that his skull had been frac- tured. Fortunately it turned out that { the blow only ¢aused a deep incision of the scalp. “I met the two fellows at Bancroft and. Fulton streets on my W to the postoific he said to-day. When 1 corner I saw only one man. He advanced toward me with a pistol in his hand. Just then I was struck from behind by a man I had not seen. I can't recall whether the man with the pistol said anything or not until I told him to get away. Then he said, ‘Keep still; keep still.’ Some people came along then and scared the men away, They had not had a chance to rob me. I walked a block toward my home, but fell at Fulton street and Durant avenue, and remembered nothing more until 1 found myself at home again.” This is the first real hold-up that has taken place in Berkeley for a long time. There is some fear that it means the repetition of the reign of terror of a year ago, when people were held up every night or so. The attack on Sharwood indicates that the highwaymen would not stop at mur- der. With only three policemen to guard this town of ,000 people the thugs may have a moonlight picnic any time they choose.
