LAKE MERRITT BOULEVARD.
The job Denounced at a Citizens
Mass Meeting.
The Peoples Wishes Must Be Rsspectei-stir.
ring Speeches Made and Strong ResO-
lutions Adopted.

There was no band or blare of trumpets
to draw the crowd in Oakland last evening,
but when o'clock came there were more
than 2O0O people in front Of the City hall.
1t was a citizens mass-meeting called TO
discuss the action of the City Council in
passing the boulevard ordinance and of the
Mayor in signing it.
Although the meeting was called by the
People's party. the speeches were confined
entirely to the question at hand, never
touching upon politics except in reference
to the corrupt municipal government OF
Oakland.
Eugene Hough presided and introd uced
ex-Mayor Ardrus as the first speaker. He
was f0ilowed in order by j. c. Chestnut.
l.. w Kmball, a. j. Gregg, o. b. Smith
and J. j. Dunn.
The sentiments of all the speakers, as ex-
pected. were embraced In the following res
oluti0ns, which were passed at the close Of
the meeting amid tremendous cheering and
without a dissenting voice:
WHEREAS. The Oakland City Council did on
the 22d inst, shamelessly pass an ordinance
authorizing the Board of Public " Works to ex-
pend 100000 ia the extension of a so-called
boulevard around Lake Merritt; and whereas :

The DEATH OF GLACIERS.
They Come to an End by Melting Faster
Than They Flow.


Glaciers plunge into the sea In many cold
countries and perish by drowning, their dis
membered remains floating away as pergs.
But their end Is by dissolution where the
annual mean temperature rises considerably
above the freezing point. AT some certain
level they melt faster than they can flow,
and so terminate.
The level, indeed, is a fluctuating one.
leelandic glaciers are now steadily advanc.
ing; Swiss glaciers, according 10 NJ. Forel,
have undergone during the present century
i've alternating periods OF diminution and
growth. The meteorological changes occa-
sioning and emphasized by these oscilla-
tions are very slight Their character, how
ever, Is unmistakable, aud such as might
have been anticipated. That is to say,
glacial decrease accompanies a warm and
dry cycle; glacial increase, one that is
damp and cold.
Without one additional degree of cold, it
is conceivable that persistentiy augmented
deposit OF snow upon the GeTnstenhOrner
scarcely peTceptiole, might enable the
Rhone glacier TO overwhelm Breg But
this would be an exceedingly small step
toward the restoration OF a former state
OF things, when an ice stream close upon
go miles IN length. starting from the same
source. crossed the frozen or non-existent
Lake OF Geneva, and debouehed by CuloZ
upon Lyons. Without severe cold as well
as heavy precipitation. ice could not possi-
bly, have gained so great an ascend ency.
And this was no local phenomenon it was
simultaneously prevalent over widely sepa-
rated tracts OF the earth's surface.

TRADES union TROUBLES.
The Furniture. Workers Array ed

They Wont Indcrsa the Brewery workmen's
Boyc3tt-3pposed to Their Ruls

Alfred Thurman, secretary Of the Brewery
Norkmen's Union. has thrown a bomb into
the tTades-uniOn camp that Is apt 10 lead two
OF the unions to withdraw from the council
Several months ago, when trouble was ex-
pected between the brewery workmen and
their bosses. il was decided to levy an as
sessment for the purpose of establishing a
cooperative brewery. a majority of the
union favored the idea, which originated
with Fuhrnan, but many of tie members
reYOlted against the tax and refused to pay
IT. In due time they were threatened with
expulsion from membership and consequent
loss OF tlleir jobs. This did not frighten the
dscontented ones. who, therefore, were ex-
PEELED A committee was then appointed to
walt upon their employers and demand their
discharge, but, to the committees astonish-
ment and chagrin. the bosses declined to ae-
Cede 10 the unions wishes
ms action OF the brewers was immedi-
ateiy resented by The union, which de-
clared boycott against the National and
jackson breweries, and has since been at
war with them.
The Furniture-workers' Union positively
dechned 70 lndorse the boycott In conse-
Quence Thurman laid complaint again #
them before the council and they were sub
sequently ordered to recogn re the boycott
10 this they sent reply denouncing Fuhr-
man and ms methods, and stating their de-
termination not 20 recognize any boycott
emanating from the brewery workmen as
long as tulirman remains at the helm. The
reply was discussed at the meeting of the
Federated Trades on FRIDAY night and de-
ciared insufficient. Furthermore the furni-
ture-workers were directed to conform to
the rules OF the organization within two
weeks or leave the federation. 1t is be-
lieyed they will adopt the alternative in
preference to indorsing Fuhrman's "ruls or
ruin" policy.

against Fuhrman that he hired a union

ANOTHER MENACE TO HEALTH
While the question of impure water is
giving some concern in this city, it
may be opportunc TO call attention to
the fact that at the upper end Of Duke
street Il water pipe has evidently burst.
which causes water TO gurgle up, and
numbers of residents of the neighbor-
hood, mostly colored people, supposing
they have discovered q spring are using
the water for drinking and culinary
purposes. The CUTTERS OF four streets
flow to the location of the supposed
spring, and of course much impurity
mingles with the water. 1t is said that
should the use of the water be contin-
ued typhoid fever or some othe. dan
gerous malady may be looked for in
the neighborhood.
