Solving the Problem.
The Oakland authorities are solving the

manner. each day furnishing work to

eighteen men cleaning. the streets.
Oakland's 1906 unemployed seem earnest
n
to labor working with will, while the
" list of names of those ON the bulletin is
!. eagerly scanned by the crowd which ia
cons family coming and going and consult
ing this. list . Each pair of eyes looks
= eagerly for the owners name, and seems
disappointed after going over the list and
falling to tindn
The: County Board of Supervisors will
meet to-day in regular session, and it is
expected that II, too. will provide work on
some Of the county roads to relieve the
tension Of hard times by making an avenue
for work for some Of the men out OF work.
= There are many Of the county roads in
bad shape, and there is money in some of
the funds, says the committee, which
relieve the stress.
:: Death Rather Than Matrimopy.
Mrs. .Nettie Bolinger, colored, who for
some months past has lived at a lodging
house at 1910 Seventh street. was arrested
. by Omcers Hammerton and McGloughlin
and locked Up in the City Prison on
charge OF assault TO murder.
e BolDger, the woman,s husband. is a
Pullman car porter. His business forced
him to be absent from home DAYS at
time Mrs. BoliDger. who is young and
pretty, improved these opportunities to
indulge in a furious filtration with one
Frank T0Inilson, also a Pullmau-car nor
ter,.of whom she was psssonateIy fond.
When not at Mrs. Bolinger's house. Tomil-
son lived at 1894 Bush street, San Fran
cisco.
This sort of.thing went on for some time.

selves about IT, and said it was high time
Boin4er's eyes were opened. 1t was re-
served for the giddy wife to do the desper-
ate: work
