We are an Ishmae- litish race to-day. Of the man in business, and even of the man in soclety, it may be “His hand is against every man, and every man's hand 1s against him.” Even family sympathies are often at a low ebb. The father of to-day is often a- lonely figure. Business enemlies are knifing him. The wom- en of his family, if they stop to think, may perhaps be unable to appreciate him, and aspirations and his trials, Deso in- deed must be his heart if therd is no splendid boy growing up and Iuto the fathers life, lov- ing him, belping him, knowing him and re- creating In him the enthusiasms and ideals of Lis own younger days. Bon speak of your father respectfully. Don't call him “Dad” or the “‘Old Man." Not even if you are ashamed of him. If you are ashamed of him, stop it and be ashamed of yourself. If he is unworthy of respect, respect him for what he ought to be.

NEW GS BUILDIN Alameda County Dealers Re- . port Large Number of In- | quiries From Outsiders OAKLAND, Feb. 4—The pleasant weather of the past week has caused an appreclable Increase in the activity of the Alameda County real estate mar- | ket, and dealers in all parts of Oakland { and the suburban citles and towns re- port all the business they can handle, | with many Inquiries from outside people _ for residence and business property in Alameda County. While there have been | but few large sales the volume of what ! dealers term “small business” will total considerably more than a million dollars. By far the largest sale of the week ! was the transfer of the First National { Bank property at the northeast corner , of Broadway and Tenth street by the | Laymance Real Estate Company from | P. B. Bowles to L. M, Taylor. The price pald was $130,000. In speaking of this sale a member of the firm through which the transfer was made declared to-day that it is at present impossible to satisfy | the demand for business locations In the central part of the city. VALUES ARE TREBLED. An interesting comparison of the value of Oakland property with that of a quarter of a century ago has been furnished by an old plat book which was recently unearthed in one of the offices of the City Hall by City Expert Jordan. This vol- ume, which bears the date of 1881, shows the assessed value and the selling price of all the property at that time owned by the city of Oakland. In it the as- sessed value of the property occupled by the City Hall and the plaza at San Pablo avenue and Fourteenth street is given as $140,000 and the selling price $300,000. As the most conservative estimates at present place the value of the property in the neighborhood of $1,000,000, it is clearly shown that land in the vicinity of Broadway and Fourteenth street has more than trebled in value in twenty- four years. The Oakland Board of Trade has now formally consolidated with the newly or- ganized Chamber of Commerce, and the new organization has taken possession of its quarters at the northwest corner of Twelfth and Franklin streets. Edwin Stearns has been elected secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, and he will con- tinue to act as the secretary of the Board of Trade, the organization of which will be maintained to prevent the use of its name by any other commercial body which may be formed in the future. The first regular meeting of the consoli- dated organizations will be held during the early part of next week. MANY NEW BUILDINGS. The new home of the Oakland Tribune, at the corner of Elghth and Franklin streets, is now nearing completion, and in a few days the inside finishers will begin their work. It will be but a short time before the Tribune will be installed in its new quarters, The new building has been planned with special care for the work of the paper, and will be a model of conve- nience. The last week has broken the record of the present year for building operations, the total value of new structures and al- terations within the limits of Oakland be- ing $86,844. A new tract of eight acres, containing ninety lots, has just been subdivided and placed on the market by W. E. Rudell of Fruitvale. The tract is located almost ai- rectly opposite Austin, the new station es- tablished in Fruitvale by the Bouthern Pacific Company, and is known as the The local agent for Loma Vista tract. the property is E. F. Van Alstine. ‘W. T. Grubb, a well-known business man of Fruitvale, who has been engaged in the real estate business for some time, has opened new offices at 1224 Fruitvale avenue. NEW FIRMS ORGANIZED. ‘W. M. Crown, for the past year con- nected with one of the largest real estate firms in Oeskland, and George A. Lewis, who has for spme time been head sales- man for the same firm, have incorporated under the name of Crown & Lewis, Inc., and have opened up handsomely appoint- ed offices at 1066 Broadway. Mr. Crown was for several years in the real estate business at Eureka, and is well known, both there and in this city. They will conduct a general real estate and insur- ance business, and have some large tracts which they will subdivide very shortly. George L. Lewis, a veteran real estate dealer of Alameda, who has been in busi- ness in the Encinal City for more than thirty years, has just disposed of a half- interest in his business to HEdward M. Shaw, and the new firm will hereafter be known as Lewis & Shaw. The offices of the new company are located at I516 Park avenue. Berkeley 1s at present experiencing a boom in building operations which sur- passes the expectations of even the most optimistic. ¢ The Bailley-Dodge Company, one of the largest real estate firms in Berkeley, re- ports a large increase in business activity in the Claremont district since the plans for the new Claremont tourist hotel have been completed and accepted by the pro- mote: . L. Coryell Company reports the sale of more than $150,000 worth of Berki ley real estate during the month of Janu- ary. Their sales for the first three days of the present month have reached a total of nearly $25,000. \ The Berkeley Real Estate and Invest- ment Company has recently secured new offices at 2113 Shattuck avenue and has a large list of choice property. R. B. Mott, the treasurer of the company, was former- ly manager of the Alameda Land Com- pany. ————— e TO DISCUSS FRANCHISES. ALAMEDA, Feb. 4.—Further discus- slon of the applications for rallrdad | franchises filed by W. J. Morgan and F. M. Greenwood will be had at the meet~ ing of the City Trustees to-morrow night. The municipal legislators have thus far refused to take any definite action upon the applications and have expressed a desire to the promoters of hearing more about their plans and their financial ablility to carry out their projects. —_———— nf;-ml ‘Wood Makes a Denial.

So long as ‘the letter goes to its destina- tion without trouble you haven't any- thing to say, an it matters little to you how the gum Is put on.

MILL VALLEY, Feb. 4.—Leo Smith, Charles Schuler, Aleck Schmitts and ‘Willlam Hurley, four young men from San Francisco who arrived here at 11:30 last night with the {dea that they would secure plenty of game, left here for San Francisco twelve hours later without any game, but with a better knowledge of the town limits of Mill Valley. The town treasury is $20 richer, Thelr destination was Redwood Canyon, but they took the wrong trail and wan- dered around the hills all night. This morning the discharge of their guns awoke the residents of the valley from their late Sunday morning slumbers. The disturbed ones made an investigation with the result that the four hunters were arrested for discharging firearms within the corporate limits of the town. Judge Newbegin, after giving them a lecture, fined them $5 each. He advised them to fight shy of Mill Valley on their next hunting trip.

HARLAN CONFESSES BURGLARIES Light Finm Young De- generate Says Many Crimes Are His. BERKELEY, Feb. 4—Confession was made to-day by Willlam G. Harlan, the 17-year-old messenger boy of Oakland ac- cused of a series of daring daylight bur- glaries in Berkeley, which clears up the mystery of recent burglaries at the Ber- keley Inn. To Marshal August Vollmer the youngster admitted that he is the crook for whom the police have been searching ever since guests of the fashionable Ber- keley Hotel reported, a month ago, that a light-fingered person was at work in their apartments. Flarlar held out stubbornly for nearly twenty-four hours, denying that he was the desired burglar, but a night in the County Jail at Oakland and a lengthy interview with Marshal Vollmer this aft- ev1 con brought him into a frame of mind where a confession was forthcoming. Jewelry, guns, cameras, and almost any article of value that was portable, ap- pealed to Harlan, and these he stole from guests of the Berkeley Inn in quantities that are supposed to have netted him hundreds of dollars. The jeweiry he had disposed of in Oakland pawnshops. Rings, pins and watches he had pledged. and much of this plunder will be recovered, for Harlan, in his confesion to Marshal Vollmer to-day, gave information that will lead to the recovery of most of the stolen stuff. Detective Jamison, who worked up the case against Harlan, under Marshal Voll- mer’s direction, belleves Harlan to be a youthful prodigy as a criminal, his cun- ning and trickery being in evidence at every turn he made. Now Harlan is at- tempting to Implicate a strange youth, whom the authorities have under inves- tigation as the person who advised and urged him to burglarize the Berkeley Inn. Little credence is given this story, how- ever, and it belleved that Harlan alone will pay the penalty for his offenses. Harlan was a messenger boy of Oak- land, and in this capacity gained entrance to the Berkeley Inn. He has resided at 1069 Wood street, In Oakland, until his arrest. He is now confired in the County Jail. tens of thousands in a year on yachts or auto- moblles I refoice for the bullders of yachts and automobiles and that so large a section of hurtful surplus of capital has fallen needfully.
