Nearly 200 attended the meeting from both sides of the bay. H. G. Walker, a retired telegrapher who has been practicing law in Oak- land for several years, called the meet- ing to order and stated the purposes of the gathering. He consented to act as chairman at the request of President John Ufford, who was obliged to leave before the close of the proceedings. An address was made by D, W.

Lester, general chair- man of the same body, followed on similar lines. George [£.

She was held without bail.

Each night in a theater so small that it seems it were for dolls or fairies the crowd goes to laugh with the comedian, to applaud the childrenh and to shiver at the tales of hara-kiri, Last night thé theater was crowded. Rows of raven heads, white collars and black suits, every man of them spick, span and clean, pleased the eye that delights in uniformity, but tha play, ‘vaudeville, an American would say, bewildered the mind. Out of tha jargon of sound there emerged no hote familiar to the Caucasian ear, save when one of Nippon's sons drew trem- bling bow over unsteady violin and a weird war tune was born. No more intensely pagan scene could be conjured than when a dainty maid- en, Shizuke, and an elderly woman, Katsu-hana, sang the Joruri song—a song of history. Garbed in the kami- shimo, the ceremonial costume of fifty years ago, great, starched wings stand- ing out from the shoulders, they knelt on the stage. While the plaintive voice of the child told the story of Japan's valor the woman strummed a native banjo and uttered guttural cries that rang like a challenge. Down in the pit a tiny drum beat dismally and the picolo warbled liks a bird—a strange, unnatural clash of sounds. And the little men in the audience applauded. They moved noiselessly in and out, ate ice cream and orangeés and joked with the two ‘women present. It was an audlence of tiny men in a tiny theater, but each man of them a unit of that great for-e of strife that swept Russia from Man- churia and a unit in that great force of the arts of peace that has roused California’s labor to its own defense. MAJORITY WILL FIND BAILEY NOT GONVIGTED SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL AUSTIN, Tex., Feb. 17.—The joint committee investigating the charges against Senator Joseph W. Batley is expected to close Its labors this week. It was said today that there would be two reports to the Legislature, the ma- Jority finding that the Senator was proved not guilty. The minority will report, it is stated, that Senator Bailey | was proved guilty of some of the mis- deeds charged against him. The evidence adduced has changed no votes in the Legislature, it is said, and the inquisition h: served only to widen the breach between the Demo- cratic factions. —_—— KILLS WIDOW AND SELF Lovelorn Idaho Farm Hand Commits Murder and Suicide BLACKFOOT, Idaho, Feb. 17 —After sending a bullet through thé heart of| Mrs. Maude Leslie, late last night, Roy Merrill. a farm hand, committed sui- clde.

Mrs. Les- lle, who was a widow, was banking the fire in the parlor and the rest of the family had rétired for the night when the shots were heard. It is sup- posed that Merrill was insane from disappointment in love. * > —_— ONLY A SIDE ISSUE TOKIO, Feb. 18.—The Nichi Nichi, which is looked upon as an authority In displomatic affairs, discussing the San Francisco schoel Incident, says 6, three weeks after an operation for cancer. Following the receipt of an analysis of the contents of the dead woman’ stomach, the Coroner late last night desired the arrest of Mrs. Waulla. It was on the report of Doctors Witt- haus and Degay, who had examined the kidneys and livéer of Mrs. Binge, that they had found therein bichloride of mercury, that an information was that the placing of a restriction by the United States on the admission of Jap- anese immigrants from Hawaii, which virtually seems unavoidable, appears to be too high a price to pay for the solution of the schoel trouble, which, it says, Is only a side issue.

The building to be erected will cost not less than $250.000 and will be at least six stories in height. Part of the | structure, including the ground floor, will be devoted to stores and offices, but the larger part will be given over to' the purposes of lodge work and to such attractive features as will add to| the popularity of the organization. NEW LOCATION Details as to the exact location will rest in the hands of the general com- mittee, which will consist of the presi- dent, two vice presidents, secretary, treasurer and trustees, who will ba; | elected before the close of this con-| | vention, together with the outgoing| presidant. } It was also decided to sell the Eddy-| street property, which, prior to the !nre. had been the home of the order for| | many years. The decision to build downtown was| regarded as a great victory for the re-| constructionists, who claimed, In op-| position to the Grand Lodge memhe\tsr from other cities, that San Francisco's | downtown of former years will be, as| before, the center of the city's business and fraternal activity. | The varlous. reports of the officers| were approved.

PRESIDENT’'S REPORT | President Ben Schloss’ report was a| notable one and contained sufficient| matter to keep the delegates, number- | ing more than 1560, busy until 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon in discussion. | Schloss is affectionately dubbed the “earthquake president,” for, as head of the organizaticn founded on philan- thropic principles, he was instrumental in distributing material aid and com- | fort during the days succeeding the| | great fire. » | The speaker recommended that the sum remaining in the relief fund, amounting to more than $22.300, be set aside as a nucleus for the future con- struction of a B'nai B'rith orphan asy- lura. The president’s report showed that $23,505.50 insurance claims bhad been collected on the library and building on Eddy street and that $6000 is still due from German companies which have repudiated their claims. Secretary I. J. Aschheim’'s report, showed that- $34,626.29 had been col- lected during the year, of which sum more than $26,000 had been deposited with the trustees. The assets of the organization total $144,782.84, consist- ing mainly of the Eddy-street property, valued at $46,250; the Van Ness avenue property and realty on Noe street.

Dr. Paden devoted most of his speech to reviewing the minority report submitted to the Senate in the Smoot case, and declared the stand taken by Senator Knox of Pennsylvania was nothing more nor less than a plea to the American people to acquiesce in the polygamous practices in Utah.

Solari, was fickls and untrue to him, so last evening b went into the New Majestic saloon, Ninth street, and drank a vial of car balic acid. This was at § o'clock. He died tweny minutes later, while being taken in an ambulance to the Centra! Emergency Hospital. Shelton was foreman of a gang street sweepers in the employ Board of Public Works.

Shelto friends could not give her whareabouts when questioned last evening; nor could they say just when the fatal es of of the fc trangement occurred. All they knew was that Shelton loved the girl and she did not love him. Shelton entered the Majestic saloon late in the afternoon with W. J. Hayes of 727 Minna street. The men had a drink. and then Shelton, addressinz Rimself to the proprietor, Carsten Luhrs, said that he wished to leave some money for his father, John Shel ton, an aged man, who lived with the |son In a refugee cabin in Columbia Park. Then Shelton swallowed the poison. The despondent man wrote no fare well note. He was 24 years of age and | had been supporting himseif and car- ing for his father ever since he was 12. He stood especially high in the civil service examinations he had taken to obtain his position with the city.

Nervous Worn-Out If you are in this condition, your nerve force is weak—the power is givisg out, the o» gans of your body have “slowed up,” and do their wark imperfectly. This failure to do the work required, .clogs the system and brings distress and disease. When the nerves are weak the heart unabl to force the life-giving blood through youyr veims; the stom- ach fails to digest food; the kidneys lack power to filter impurities from the blood, and the poisoneus waste remains in the system to breed disease. Nerve energy must be restored. Dr. Miles’ Nervine will do it, because it strengthens the nerves; it is a nerve medicine and témic, that rebuilds the entire nervous system. “Several yeary agd I was all broken down.
