Roadway |CAUSES MUCH DAMAGE ‘Pours Like a Torrent Un- i checked Through the Wide i Highway Skirting Lake]| Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1016 Broadway, June 19. Like an ebullient geyser did a stream of water shoot from the ground this morning at Twelfth and Fallon streats and pour with millrace speed down to the dam, sweeping { hundreds of feet of the top dressing | of macadam into Lake Merritt and the | catch basin outlets. The torrent was caused by the bursting of the Contra Costa Water Company's big twenty- four-inch main that crosses on the south side of Twelfth street dam from East Oakland. It was shortly after 6 o'clock that the break occurred. Before the re- pair gang arrived thousands of gal- lons of water had poured as if from a great gushing geyser and had formed a swiftly running stream the full | width of the 100 feet of roadway across the dam. The early morning street cars could barely make their | way through the flood. For a time | there was serious danger that .he railroad tracks would be washed out. The water tore along to Kendall's boat house on the north side of the high- ay and washed out a section of the new fill west of that structure. The | cateh basins were entirely inadequate |to carry off the heavy flo #0 much | of the wasted water found its way over the banks into the lake on the one |side and the outlet into the estuary on the opposite side of the roadway. As_ rapidly as possible the water | company rounded up a repair crew |and the men were dispatched to the scene of the break. After several | hours’ work the rupture in the heavy | wrought iron piping was found and steps ‘were taken to mend the injury. k The waste from the leak was so great that the water pressure was | perceptibly noticeable to residents in | the vicinity. For some time it was impossible to get water in the second |story of a awelling because of the | lack of pressure. ——————— SONS TO CELEBRATE BIRTHDAY OF THE STATE NATIVE Alameda County Parlors Will Arrange for Fitting Observance of Admission Day.

The' committees at work have more than $1000 already collected, and have ar- ranged a series of capital attractions for the day. | There will be all the usual features of parades, orations, literary vxf‘r(‘,lses.‘ fireworks and noise, and in addition | there will be several events that are| not usually on the programmes of the | nation's birthday celebrations. There | will be horse races, with a series of | athletic contests, for prizes, and chief | among the attractions will be the! “bronco busting” match, with a real girl | “bronco buster.” | The committee in charge of the ath-| letie events decided to give a substan- | tial prize for the best “bronco bust-| ing” exhibition. There are plenty of| untamed horses in the hills back of | Livermore, and there are many cow- boys in the town. The committee, how- ever, wanted some outside talent, and therefore circulated their offers all through the San Joaquin Valley. The result is that entries for this unique event have been received from as far — PLAN v IMPROVEMENTS AT RELIANCE Directors’ Programme Includes a Gen- eral Overhauling and Bettering of Facilities for Members' Use. OAKLAND, June 19.—The directors of the Reliance Athletic Club will meet on Tuesday evening to take up the various projects that are in hand for the improvement of the club’s con- veniences for members. This includes the establishing of steam baths, hot room and other facilities for the use of members in athletic exercises. It is contemplated to renovate the locker system to arrange rooms for the con- venience of members who desire a quiet nook for reading and smoking. The directors contemplate a general overhauling and renovation of the club apartments and gymnasium. Along the line of changes the board will also settle the question of atblish- ing open professional fights. The in- tention is to provide amateur contests for members only. The scheme of im- provement that has been mapped out looks toward the revival of interest in the club life, which has been grow- ing steadily for more than a year. The board expects to increase the membership roll materially during the next twelve months. —————————— SANTA ROSA READY FOR A NEW CHARTER New Instrument Is Adopted by Free- holders and Will Now Be Sub- mitted to the People. SANTA ROSA, June 19.—A new charter was adopted last evening at a meeting of a board of fifteen free- holders, who were recently elected to frame the document. It will now be submitted to the people at a special election, and it is believed the charter will be ratified. For many years past Santa Rosa has been laboring at a disadvantage under the provisions of a charter adopted in 1878, and which has prevented the proper progress of the town. Two previous freeholder charters have been submitted to the people, the first being defeated at the polls because of unpopular provisions, and the second failed to carry with the necessary two-thirds provision be- cause it was submitted at a general election and many citizens failed to vote either for or against its adoption ‘while voting the political tickets of the two parties A % COUB L away as San Bernardino County.

All that she asks is that she be given just as difficult an animal to conquer as is possible to be found in the Liver- more hills. This celebration will be participated in by all of the surrounding towns. Haywards will send a baseball team to compete with the Livermore team. Pleasanton has appointed a special committee to work with the Livermore committees, and the horse town will send some first-class animals to take| part in the races. San Jose will send a company of militia to unite with| Company 1 of Livermore, and many towns in Contra Costa and San Joaquin counties will send delegatipns to enjoy and to take part in the events. Jyron, Walnut Creek and Dan- ville will all be represented. Supervisor C. F. Horner has given $200 to the celebration fund. Postmas- ter T. E. Knox will be chairman of the day and Dave McDonald will be grand marshal of the parade. —_— NATIVE SONS HONOR A DEPARTED BROTHER Oakland Parlor No. 50 Officiates at the Funeral of the Late George L. Nusbaumer. OAKLAND, June 19.—Funeral ser- vices over the late George L. Nus- baumer, for many vears official Sur- veyor of Alameda County and one of the first American Native Sons of Cali- fornia, were held this afternoon at the residence of his sister, Mrs. Welles Whitmore, 1115 Jefferson street. The services were conducted by Oakland Parlor- No. 50, Native Sons of the Golden West. The officers in charge were George Frick, acting president; Rod W. Church, acting past president, and L. N. Cobbledick, acting first vice presi- dent. Music was rendered by the Oak- land Masonic Quartet, composed of Alfred Wilke, D. M. Lawrence, H. W. Patrick and William Nielsen. The palibearers were Victor H. Met- calf, R. M. Fitzgerald, Dr. W. S. Por- ter, John Yule, William H. Church and E. C. Prather. The body was inciner- ated at the Oakland Crematory. RAILS SPREAD AND ‘CAUSE AN ACCIDENT Seven Freight Cars Are Demolished Near Benicia and the Contents Are Lost. BENICIA, June 19.—A spreading rail on a spur at Sprig, near Benicia, at § o'clock this morning, derailed eight cars of freight train No. 202. The train, in charge of Conductor J. H. Hughes, left Benicia east bound at 4:15. A sink caused the rails ta spread, and though the engine and first few cars passed safely the next seven were thrown into a slough and demolished. Two of the cars were loaded with oil, and the others with furniture, A tramp who was beating his way was slightly cut about the head and shoulders by being thrown against a telegraph pole. lers were recently issued warning the trainmen to proceed slowly when near that section, but the conductors have paid little if any heed to it. A wrecking train and crew was sent from Oakland yand had the tracks cleared by noon. Neither the east nor west bound Sacramento locals here to-day, and the overlands went by way of Martinga l l | south UTSIDERS BUY [SATS GOOD-BY OAKLAND HOMES Business Men From Other Cities Invest in Real Es- tate in Alameda County EWHOTEL/ INTEREST IN Committee Receives Offers of Building Material to Be Paid for in Stock Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1016 Broadway, June 19. | Great activity in building optrfl.llufll: and many sales of Oakland property to people from other parts of the State and from the East have marked the last month. This influx of outside cap- ‘ ital is one of the surest signs of pro-| gress in this city. Within the last quarter nearly twenty new firms have been organized in Oakland, and seven of these are already located in the new | Bacon block on Washington street. During the present month the local real estate market has been extremely active. Willlam J. Laymance, of the Laymance Real Estate Company, says | that fully twenty-five per cent of the sales of Oakland property made sinrei the first of June, and in fact during| the past year, have been made to new- | comers, who were first attracted to the | Pacific. Coast by climatic conditions, and after seeing the natural advan- tages offered by this city decided upon Oakland as an ideal location for busi- ness and residence. | MANY NEW BUILDINGS. Nearly one-hundred sets of plans for new buildings were filed with Sanitary Inspector Stewart F. Gemmel during the month of May, fifty-eight of these being for private dwellings, twenty- nine for flats and several for stores. Plans for one bank and one cannery were among those filed, The construction work on the new Union Savings Bank building, at Broadway and Thirteenth street, has practically been completed, and the decorators are now at work on ths first floor. The finishers have completed their work in the Bacon block, and a | number of the offices are already oceu- | pied. All the stores on the ground | floor have been rented for some time. | The excavating for the new five- | story apartment building which 1s to be erected on Broadway, just south of the postoffice, has already begun. This building will be constructed of brick, iron and stone, and will be fireproof throughout. The ground floor will be used for stores, and the four upper ones will be divided into apartments with three or four rooms in each suite. ‘ TOURIST HOTEL PLAY The executive committee in charge of the new tourist hotel project will hold & meeting early next week. The subscriptions already received will then be reported. A number of communica- | tions have been received by C. H. King, | the chairman, and Edwin Stearns, sec- retary, of the executive committee, from dealers in granite, stone and other building materials, in other parts of the State, offering to furnish material for the hotel and take stock in pay- ment. This Is proof that the proposal | to erect an up-to-date tourist hotel in this city is arousing interest outside of Oakland, and it also proves that busi- | ness men believe the new enterprise will be successful. | The Realty Syndicate, through its agents, Wickham Havens, J. H. Spring, | George Sterling and F. (. Havens, have recently purchased 1 acres of tide land on the Berkeley shore, ]u:ll‘ of Flemings Point. The deeds are signed by H. F. and Frederica M Teschemacher, Joseph H. and Agnes H. Howard, E. D. and Julla D. Bey- | lard, and Henry P. Bowie. It is believ ed that the Realty Syndicate is simply acting as the agent of some other cor- poration in making this important pur- ] chase, for, while the frontage forms an | excellent site for a railway terminal, | it is not thought that any of the cor- porations allied to the syndicate have | plans for a ferminal at that point. | Holcomb, Breed & Bancroft of Oak- land report a very satisfactory business for May, with a strong demand for cot- tages to rent, and especially for fur- nished places. Latham Terrace, whicn | is situated on the heights at the head | of Twenty-third avenue, is having a, ready sale, the prices being very low | owing to the closing up of an estate. | Never in the history of this city has| any tract caused so much stir and at- | tention as the Santa Fe tract, between | Telegraph avenue and Adeline street and running north from Forty-seventh to Fifty-fifth street. Its proximity to all the car lines and the excellent ! service of the Key Route system has made this particular tract prominent. | y There are in course of construction ten | good houses, the owners of which are San Francisco business men. This firm | has put in all the street work, gas and | electric service and is beautifying the streets with palm trees. Twenty lots have been sold the last ten days. HOSPITAL FOR BERKELEY. BERKELEY, June 19.—Berkeley is likely to get very soon what it needs almost more than anything else—a hos- pital. Recent accidents, in which there was no place at hand to receive the victims, demonstrated that the city is woefully lacking in hospital facilities. These accidents have furnished an ob- Ject lesson to the townspeople, and the result is a movement to establish a sanitarium. A corporation is in pro- cess of formation and efforts are mak- ing to acquire the old Hume property, | with its fine mansion, on Dwight way, 80 that it may be turned into a shelter for sick and injured persons. The ne- gotiations with Mrs. Bessie Hume, who owns the property, are being carried on by W. R. Ellis & Co., the real estate men. It s understood that when the transaction is completed $25,000 will change hands. The Hume residence is well located for such a purpose, and it is proposed to spend at least $5000 on equipment of the sixteen rooms con- | tained within it. H. D. Irwin, the South Berkeley real estate man, has sold a number of houses and lots lately in his part of the | town. None of the houses are very ex- | pensive, but they are to be occupied by families who will add much to the tone and wealth of the place. There is a marked improvement in the style of architecture in South Berkeley, and this is drawing people of taste and some | means in that direction. Among the/ transaetions Irwin has lately nego- tiated are the following sales; Home on Sixty-third street to John Thomson, | $2000; home on Grove street, Mrs. Kab- ler, $2750; home on Essex street, M." A. McColloster, $2700; home on Stuart street, Mr. Maher, $2500; home on Alca- traz avenue, Mr. Brittan, $2700; home on Harper street, Marion G. Brown, $2600; home on stugt street, M. Myers, ! churchgoers, within six years, In | | those six years peen some loss throu , but the libra- rian belleves that not amount to more than 1200. 2 BSOS S T EXPOSITION IS VISITED | Fair Registers Contain the Names of T0 HIS FLOCK Dr. Rader Delivers Strong Sermon on Eve of Going on an Extended Vacation VOICES NOVEL THOUGHT Pastor Holds That People Like Christianity More Than They Do the Church i el “A View of the World as Seen From a San Franelsco Pulpit” was the sub- Ject of a sermon by the Rev. Willlam Rader at the Third Congregational Church last evening., The edifice was crowded with worshipers, and being the | last of Dr. Rader's sermons prior to his departure for London on a three months' vacation there were many of other denominations present, and after the service they took occasion to bid the doctor bon voyage. Dr. Rader said that this age is better than any other, and he gave it as his‘ opinion that people believe in religion more than in theology—that they love | flowers better than they do botany, the | stars more than astronomy, life more; than dogma and like Christianity more than they do the church. They believe in God In some form. Atheism, he saild, has been driven from the fleld, both by science and re ligion. There are three descriptions of non- | said Dr. Rader—the | thoughtless, the thoughtful and the in- different. The thoughtless are losing | the gift of conviction, the thoughtful | are taking up many things outside the | church and the indifferent assume an | attitude of opposition. | (Parsons), | way. 376 W of Milvia street pr— L, BRANCH OFFICES OF THE CALL IN ALAMEDA COUNTY OAKLAND. 1018 Broadway.
