Lad Rewags Kindness by Becoming In- corrigible. OAKLAND, July 4—Ever since he was cagabla of understanding twelve- year-old Willis E. Miller has believed that the woman who has cared for him, sheltered and nursed him, was his mother. Not until today did the boy learn the secret of his life, that he was a walf and foundling who had been picked up when he was four days old on a door step in San Francisco. Mrs. Minnie Drossel Hennessy of Fruitvale is the woman who found the mite of a babe, and who for twelve years has reared the boy as her own. Compelled to disclose the secret to the authorities before whom the boy is to appear for commitment to a State institution, Mrs. Hennessy wept as she revealed the story. She had turned her ward over to the Juvenile Court, asserting he had become incorrigible. Young Miller said: “I did not know Mrs. Hennessy was not my mother until today when she told me about my life and how I was found in a doorway,” said the boy. “I don’t know who was my mother or my father. Guess I am an orphan. “I always called Mrs. Hennessy ‘mamma,’ and I don't know what I am going to do now that I have no real mother. I don't want to go to a re- form school.” The boy’s plight appealed to the hos- pital attendants and they supplied him with an abundance of firecrackers and the like, in which Miller took great delight today. s AR e TP MISHAPS OF PATRIOTISM, OAKLAND, July 4,—While exploding firecrackers at his Home at 412 Vernal avenue this afternoon Guy Bueking- ham was struck on the nose by a bomb and received a compound fracture of that member, which was treated at the Receiving Hospital. There were fewer accidents from fire- crackers treated at the Recelving Hos- pitdl than usual this year. Stuart Ar- nold, aged 17, of 1664 Thirteenth ave- nue was treated for a burned hand jcaused by the explosion of a toy can- non, and Arthur Wood, aged 10, who lives in Sacramento, was treated for a blank cartridge wound of the left hand, self-inflicted.

PALO ALTO, July 4—Land owners of North Palo Alto have gone before the Supervisors of San Mateo County with a petition urging an appropria- tion for the proposed Pope street ‘bridge. The present delay in this important improvement is largely due to the fallure of the San Mateo Supervisors to act in the matter. The Banta Clara board has already- appropriated $1500 as its share of the expense and the property owners stand ready to'put up the balance. Palo Alto will be asked to subscribe to the fund also. An eighty-foot avenue has been laid out through North Palo Alto, and with the construction of the bridge it is cer- tain that the drive will become & pop- ular one. ‘What was the great thing these men did?

OAKLAND, July 4.—Charles T. Johns, attorney and well known resi- dent of this city, died last night at Fablola Hospital after a month's illness from stomach trouble. Johns was a native of England, 71 years old. He came to California in 1852, engaged in mining, and was severely injured In a_blast. In 1875 he was principal of the Prescott School. Later he was City Attorney. Two sons, Fred T. Jones, an attorney, and Herbert S. Jobns, a student, and a stepdaughier, Mrs. R. I. Hill Jr., survive. The funeral will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from Taylor's parlors, Clay and Fif- teenth streets. e LR e The Gackwar Visits Wall Street. His highness the Gaekwar, Mahara- jah of Baroda, finding the day fine and warm, such as he is accustomed to at home, planned a morning of sightseeing. He put on his frock coat and high hat, and, accompanied by his dusky private secretary and two white men, got into a closed carriage at the Waldorf-Astoria and drove down to Wall street. The party reached the Stock Ex- change shortly after 11 o'clock. They were receiyed by Secretary Burnham of the exchange and conducted over the building. The Maharajah ex- pressed his admiration continually. He sald that he did not know of anything abroad which could be compared with the exchange. ‘When he was ushered into the visi- tors’ gallery trading was quiet. The room, however, intended to live up to its reputation. The brokers jumped up from the benches, threw down their magazines and crowded madly around the Copper, Pennsylvania, Reading and Union Pacific posts. They shouted hoarsely and waved thelr arms in the alr, making bids and offers at a safe distance from the mar- ket. The Maharajah looked disquiet- ed and feared that there must be a panic in progress.—New York Sun. il Aok i s Sultan’s Gift of a Lion.

ALAMEDA, July 4.—Interest in the rallroad projects of W. J. Morgan, who was recently granted a franchise to |construct and operate two roads on | Bay Farm Island, has revived as a re- sult of a dispatech from Denver that David H. Moffat has secured impor- tant Eastern connections for the Den- ver, Northwestern and Pacific. The latter line is to be the comnecting link, it is said, between a great transconti- nental road from New York to the Pa- eific Coast. | Morgan was granted a franchise two months ago by the City Tyustees for the Bay Farm Island roads he has planned. One of thebroads is to extend along the south side of the island and the other is to run along the north side. General W. H. H. Hart, who rep- resented the Morgan franchise applica- tions before the munieipal legisiators, said it was the intention of Morgan and his associates to construet two great moles extending from the we |end of Bay Farm Island into the ba: |and that fast ferry freight boats were | to be operated from the western termi- | mals of the moles to San Francisco. | Hart also stated at the time that the | franchise applications were under con- | sideration by the City Trustees that the Bay Farm Island roads were to form | part of a terminal of a transcontinental |line that was te be built west from STATE PRESIDENT OF CHRISTIAN EN- DEAVORERS AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE BERKELEY UNIOY Christian Workers Come| From All Over Cali- fornia.

SAN MATEO, July 4—Superintendent Losh of the San Mateo Water Company says that the new water rates are sat- istactory to W. J. Dingee and that the proposed improvements to the service will be made. Under the new rate the company is allowed 26 2-3 cents per thousand gal- lons for meter and the same for eity sprinkling. For fire hydrants the rate is ralsed from 25 cents to 50 cents per month on hydrants owned by the eity and from 50 cents to $1 on thése owned by the company. These are the only changes.
