The matter of property rights has been satisfactorily settled between Jack London, the author, and his wife, who is suing him for divorce on the! ground of desertion. An order was made by Judge Greene to-day vacating an order made some time ago restrain- ; ing London from drawing any money : from publishers and employers upon the statement of Mrs. London's attor- ney that the object of having the order made has been attained. So far London has made no appear- ance in the suit and the withdrawal of the restraining order and the quick compromise of all property rights is taken as an Indication that no contest is to be made in the case and that London will allow his wife to seeure her decree without molestation. This is as he wishes it, according to charges made which state that he has request; ed her to get the decree and give him his liberty. Mrs. London has alleged that the af- fections of her husband have been alienated by Miss Strunsky and that she once found Miss Strunsky seated on her husband’s knee, during the time the latter was staying at the London bungalow in Piedmont. When the year was up from the date upon which London and his wife sep- arated he wrote from Asla, it is as- serted by Mrs. London, and asked her to give him his freedom. While she it in her hands tc give him his liberty or not, he thought for their mutual happine this should be done, the intimation being that he loved another woman. WRONG T0 LET NATIVES VOTE NSays Hawaiians Are Not Fit to Hold Suffrage - R 4 Jerkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, July 11. The enfranchisement of the natives of Hawaii with the full rights of suffrage | when the United States accepted the | islands as part of the national territo- ry is regarded by Professor Bernard Moses, professor of history at the Uni- versity of California and formerly a Philippine Commissioner, as one of the gravest political mistakes this country has ever committed. In a lecture before his class to-day at the university Pro- fessor Moses criticized severely the | granting of the high privilege of suf- frage to a class of people who had no conception of government in the sense obtaining among the educated masses of the United States. “No graver mistake was ever made than l’ give universal suffrage to the Hawailan nativh; said Professcr Mosce. “They were a more or less ig- norant people, having little. learning and no knowledge at all of civilized government, They had never had a po- litical training and could not be expect- ed to know the significance of the bal- |lot. To trve* them with the ballot was a very unwise thing from my point of view. And I have no doubt that the ;ruling classes in the islands have the same view, tions better. “All the internal troubles of the Ha- waliian government are due to this mis- take. The native and his sympathizers are in the majority, and the result is that the representatives they choose are not of the best. There is a bitter antagonism between the two classes in the islands. “There is a sentiment in this country at the present time that one man is as useful politically as another. That is probably why the suffrage was given to the Hawaiians. If this equality is ever realized it will be the greatest historical event from the beginning of the world to the -present time. It may be realized some time, but it is too early vet.” ————— Marriage Licenses. OAKLAND, July 11.—The following marriage licenses were issued by the County Clerk to-day: Alfred D.

They ! were taken into, custody py the police ' during the night. The lads range in age from 10 to 17. Géorge Ash, 10 years; Arthur Fred- erick, 13 years, and George Audet, 14, were first made prisoners. They had robbed a store on Jefferson street near Fourth. Willie Jacobs, 17 years old; George Mate, 15 years, and William Davis, 16, were arrested during the early mcrning hours with stolen goods in their possession and could give no satisfactory explanation. About 9 o'clock last evening Ash, Frederick and Audet broke into the store of Mrs. R. Appledorn and took a quantity of sardines, oystgrs and to- bacco. The youngest of the trio was the first to enter the place and told his companions of the possibilities for a feast. While all were enjoying an im- promptu “spread,” the police swooped dcewn and the juveniie thieves went to the City Prison. This morning Ash, on account of his tender years, was re- leased and sent home. The other boys will be held to answer for their crime. Police Sergeant Lynch came upon the other trio at the corner of Six- teenth and Peralta streets about 3 ¢'clock in the morning. They had three quart bottles of whisky, a new | alarm clock and a dozen handkerchiefs | in their possession. As the lads will offer no explanation, the detective de- partment is attempting to trace the ownership of the stolen articles. SHOOTS CILD OINTRE HEAD B S | 1 Ask Trustees to Amend Ordinance So as to Permit Cutting Under Restrictions. BERKELEY, July 11.—A sequel to the recent cutting of five elm trees on Center street in violation of a town ordinance was provided to-night when a committee of the Town and Gown Club furnished the Board of Trustees with suggestions on the subject of tree | destruction in a communication signed by the president and members of the civie section of the club. It was the club that took up the cause of the trees when they were cut two weeks ago and threatened to prosecute the destroyer, although things were after- ward smoothed over. Now the Town and Gown women want two things done to the ordinance that regulates the cutting of trees and in seeking to have it amended they believe they are going to conserve the best interests of the town. First, they want the ordinance amended so if any- body does want to cut a tree down he Five-Year-Old Boy Probably Fatally Wounded by Older Brother While at Play | The ordinance is now so framed that it does not allow any exceptions. Sec- ond, they want only the Board of Trustees to issue permits to cut down trees, consent to be given only after a careful investigation and vote of the board. The recuest for these changes is signed by Mrs. J. C. Lynch, presi- dent of the club; Mrs. A. J. Ralston, chairman of the civic section; Mrs. Frank H. Payne, Mrs. K. A. Easton and Mrs. Allen G.

BERKELEY, July 11.—A brace of footpads held up B. A. Algo, a work- man at the Judson Iron Works, while he was walking along the railroad tracks toward his home in West Berkeley on Saturday night and robbed him of $9 50, all the money he had In his pockets. The men sud- denly pounced upon Algo and put re- volvers under his nose and caused him to obey precipitately the command to throw up his hands. After being re- leased Algo went to the saloon owned by Robert Bucher at Fourth and Har- rison streets and borrowed a pistol so that he could protect himself. He was so much frightened that he forgot to get a description of the highwaymen. The wounded boy was removed to the County Hospital. Little hope is ex- pressed for his recovery. So far as the children’s parents could learn, the older boy did not know that the weapon was loaded. He and his little brother had found the gun stana- ing behind a door. They carried the weapon outside, and not until the ex- plosion occurred did either of the boys realize what danger they were in. The father was attracted by the sound of the gunshot and the scream from the older boy as his brother sank senseless and bleeding to the ground. As quickly as possible a physician was summoned.

Land and Sea to Take Up Studies With Dr. Loeb Telephone Main 1083. THE SIGHTS ENJOYS He Is a Fine Type of Ger- man Manhood, Athletic and an Army Lieutenant Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, July 11. Dr. Wolf Ostwald, son of Professor Wilhelm Ostwald, the world's great-’ est chemist, arrived from his home in Germany to-day, prepared to begin a course of study under Professor Jacques Loeb, the great biologist. The young man is a scientist of consider- able note in his own country, and is the master of a number of notable achievements in biology, in which sub- ject he is greatly interested. In addi- tion to his researches he has been ac- tive in other pursuits, being a lieu- tenant in the German army and an athlete of prominence. He is a fine type of German manhood, rather boy- ish looking and betraying no outward appearance of lurking genius. In conversation Dr. Ostwald said in English that was more or less broken that the trip across the sea and land had cost him fourteen days of precious time. The sights in America were a visit to the country. As to his studies here Dr. Ostwald was not prepared to say what course they would take except that they would concern the examination of heliotropism in animals, which is one of the important ques- tions biological sience is interested in. Dr. Ostwald’s father visited the uni- versity last year at {"ie request of Dr. Loeb, his former pupil, and delivered the address at the dedication of the Loeb physiological ‘laboratory, ———— FARMERS TO BUILD THEIR OWN WAREHOUS!
