RAILWAY SMALL TALK.
That Beckworth Pass Rumor - The
South ern Railway Reaches
Ont.

The Southern Railway, which has grown
to be the Pennsylvania Railway of the
South, is reaching out. A. J. Poston, an
active young man who looks like Lord
Dunraven, is glad it is, for he arrived here
yesterday as the duly accredited agent of
the company IN San Francisco. He will
have his headquarters in the Croker
building, and all people who wish to know
anything about pickeninnies or baby alli-
gators or other Southern products are in
vited to call.
Everything points to the reasonable cred
Utility OF the rumor that Mr.. Huntington
has more than a friendly interest in the
little two-for-a-cent railroad now about to
be extended westward through the famous
Beckworth pass. The way things are now
the terminus OF the Southern Pacific
branch at Oroville is only about 100 miles
from the present terminus of the little
road. AS the greatest elevation in the
pass is only 5132 feet and the Central
Pacific at Summit is 7017 feet, the route
via Oroville and the Middle Fork of the
Feather River certainly seems to offer any
overland road most feasible entrance into
California. Why railroad has not come
down that way before is something old
residents of the mountains cannot under
stand.
The river in the Yosemite rose four feet
during the storms of last week, and the
falls are now spectacle OF delight. So
says Yosemite Sam, the railroad man.
Assistant Passenger Agent Speers of the
Santa Fe has gone to Los Angeles. Lest
he might unduly encourage traffic, he
went by steamer.
Engineer Storey of the Valley road says
there is no news but good news from ''the

The latest of the many romantic mar
riages in Oakland is that of Rudolph kreye
and Miss Lille FRANKIE. The bridegroom is
baker, with place of business on New
Broadway and Twenty-second street, and
the bride the daughter of Rudolph FRANKIE,
the pickle merchant. Mr.. FRANKIE is man
whose series of trials and tribulations have
kept him in pickle for several years, and
fresh in the minds of the public. The last
drop of sorrow to his already overlooking
cup has Just co me to light, and Cupid has
had a hand in the matter, assisted by
Neptune
Mr.. FRANKIE is the father OF spirited
young daughter of is years OF age, who fell
in love with the above mentioned baker,
and, although a worthy young man, Mr..
FRANKIE did not want him as a member of
his family. and refused his consent to the
marriage when asked for 1t. The young
people Concluded that they had paid him
all the respect necessary IN the affair by
asking his consent to the marriage, and if
he saw fit to try to wreck their happiness,
they would manage the affair without his
leave.
On Saturday the arrangements were
made for an elopement.
A naphtha launch was hired, and the
wedding party, consisting of the bridal
couple, Miss FRANKIE, Charles Kopp, rela-
tive or two and some few friends went on
board and sailed out to the Golden Gate.
When the skipper was the legal distance
from land the nuptial knot was tied fast
and strong. The launch was then headed
back through the Golden Gate, and about
10 o'clock the party landed at North

A WEE GIRL IN DEMAND,
First Baby Born in OakIand'S
COOPERATIVE
Home.
So Intelligent That Theosophists
Declare 1t Had a Previous
Existence.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANcIsco CALL

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
90S Broadway, Sept. IS.
Although the Cooperative Home in
Oakland has been an established success
for more than five years, is is only re-
Gently that the first baby was born there.
1t is known as the "Co-operative Baby"
and all the women in the establishment
from the president to the cook declare that
they hold stock, so to speak, in the new
arrival at their settlement.
The new property's mother is petite
woman who entered the home some
months ago. She contracted an unfortu-
nate marriage, and her husband is now
living IN San Francisco, but the inmates
declare that the preponderance of mother
more than compensates for the absence OF
its father.
Little Eva Wisener, as the cooperative
baby is called, is in demand outside the
home as we'll as inside Although she
hardly knows any difference between her
many maternal guardians, affection for
her is by no means confined to them. Sew
eral veal Thy people who call at the home
have expressed desire to adopt her, and
some have made munifcent offers, but
they offer in vain. The women in the
home are new women" in the sense of
their being independent of men in their
management, but Mrs. Wisener is still de-
voted sufficiently to the old school to prize
her little one too much to part with it.
Mrs. Cole, one of the directors, exhibited
the cooperative baby yesterday and said:
Without doubt she is the most lovable
and remarkable child | ever saw. She has
never been known to cry at night or whim-
per at the wrong time. Really, l firmly
believe she understands more than she can
express, and actually is sensible enough
to take in the peculiarities of her situa-
ton" l am something of theosophist,
and as the director finished speaking the
little one smiled and coughed its approba-

themselves with credit. They have been
trained and directed by William S. Tom

The tax levy was fixed at 81 IS by the
City Council last evening and the ordi-

suspension of the rules when Councilman
Brosnahan sharply reminded the chair
that eight votes were necessary to suspend
the rules and there were only seven. The
point was well taken and the rushing
through OF the ordinance was abruptly
stopped. 1t will be read a second time at
Thursdays meeting.

The Board of Supervisors held an ex-

and as result the State and county taxes

THE USUAL THING.
A Contract Fiasco to Be Followed by
Legal Marriage.

Legal Marriage.
Miss Mabel Holmes, who is said to have
been married by contract to Percy Mills, a
young San Jose attorney. is well known in
Oakland, and held in high esteem in social
ana religious circles. Her family lives at
1925 Broadway, She has had charge of a
cyclery on Fourteenth street, where her
brother, Carroll c. Holmes, was seen to-
day.
He said his sister had been engaged to
Mills for some time, and that their pur-
pose was to get married quietly and keep
the affair a secret for the present. No
doubt, now that their attention had been
called to the character of the illegality of
contract marriages, they would have the
ceremony legally performed. Though the
alleged marriage took place Thursday, her
family learned nothing about it until Sat-
urday. Where the couple now are the
brother did not know, as they have not re-
turned to Oakland.
