ably Protected.

ALAMEDA, CAL, Nov 24.-It was sup
posed that nobody saw Austen Delaney at
the exact moment when he fell under the
narrow-gauge local train on Friday morn
ing and lost his life, but just as the Deputy
Coroner had completed his preparations to
hold the inquest painter named Logic
made his appearance with the information
that he was an eyewitness to the accident.
He testified that he was standing on the
south side of the train when Delaney ap-
preached from the north side. Delaney
appeared to be winded from running, so
that the last hundred feet he could only
walk. He grasped the bandrail OF the
front platform of the first car, but did not
seem to have strength to pull himself up
the steps, and was dragged a distance and
finally drawn under the wheels. The Cor
oner's jury returned verdict OF accidental
death. The jury was satisfied from the
evidence that had there been guards under
the cars the accident probably would not
have happened, and it embraced in its ver-
dict a recommendation to the municipal
authorities TO require guards to be placed
upon all local passenger cars. Guards
were some time ago plac ed on the broad
gauge cars, but those of the narrow-gauge

known as any young folks on either side
of the bay. Rose Julian, who is now Fitz-
simmons wife, was a noted contortionist at
the old Fountain Theater at Kearny and
Sutter streets. She was then but Is years of
age. Her mother was a circus rider and
her father owned circus. Roses mother
was considered the handsomest woman in
Oakland, and SO jealous was her husband
that he once shot at her on the ferryboat
Piedmont, in the days when 1t was new. He
was tried and acquitted on the ground of
temporary insanity, and husband and wife
were afterward reunited.
Rose inherited all her mothers beauty
and artists and sculptors recently COM
pared notes and decided that her figure
was more perfect than that of Marian
Nolan.
Several years ago the family went East
and Rose and Martin went on the stage in
New York. They both made a mark for
themselves. Florence, who is also con-
sidered beautiful GIRL followed them on
the stage and it was rumored afterward
that she married wealthy man. She
then disappeared from public life. None
of her Oakland friends have heard of her
for several years.
Some time ago Martin Julian became in
fatuated with the wife of Pugilist Fitzsim-
mons and when the fighter applied for a
divorce Julian was implicated The di-
vorce was granted to Fitzsimmons and
then marked friendship sprang up be-
tween Martin and Fitzsimmons. 1t re-
suited in the man who had been instru-
mental in severing the fighters marriage
being made his manager.
A little later there was another surprise,
for FitZsimmons married Rose, his man
ager's sister, and it is rumored that there
is prospect of marriage between Mar
tin and the eX-Mrs- Fitzsimmons. While
Rose was a resident of Oakland she re-
fused several offers of marriage, one of
them being from State Senator. Another
of her admirers was the late Senator Fair
and on one occasion he had quarrel with
his son Charles when he learned that Rose
was admired by that young man.
One of the Julians' most intimate
friends while in Oakland was +. R. Porter,
proprietor of Echoes, from whose gallery
of celebrities the photographs were OBJ
tained.

THEIR LAST PRACTICE,
Berkeley's Eleven to Play On
the Campus but Once
More.
The Remaining Two Days Will Be
Devoted to Signal Work-Some
New YellS.

BERKELEY, CAL, Nover1be 24.-The
football boys spent the day in peace and
quiet at the training quarters, nursing
their slight bruises and resting up for the
final struggle on Thanksg ivlng day. With
the exception of perhaps two or three who
have recently sustained minor injuries the
men are in the pink of condition.
Though the players are rather reticent
about expressing their opinions as to the
probable outcome of the Thanksgiving
game, yet the general tone of their CONVEX
sation indicates that their confidence in
victory is unprecedented in Berkeley
They realize, however, that Stanford s
rush line will be somewhat heavier than
theirs, yet they hope that the muscle
which they have been developing within
the last two months will stand them in
good stead when the battle is on.
Tomorrow afternoon the Varsity will
have the last line up of the practice sea-
son. TIE coach wishes to see what they
are really able to do. and accordingly has
secured several players from other clubs
to help out among whom are Bert Oliver,
McNear, Porter and Tobin. The game
will be called at 8 o'clock. and twenty-five
who will make up the Varsity team are:
Selfridge, center; Plunkett and Wallthal,
guards; Douglas and Reinhardt. tackles;
Hutchinson and Wilson, ends; Kennedy,
quarter; Hilborn and Sherman, halves,
and Ransom, full.
The two remaining days will be devoted
to private practice and signal work in the
gymnasium. The team will probably
spend Wednesday night in San Francisco,
so as to prevent as little exertion as posi-
BILE until time is called for the intercol-
legiate game.
Another grand rally of the students will
be held on Wednesday night for the pur-
pose of practicing football, songs and def
nitely deciding upon just what yells shall
be used on the day of the game. Several
new yells have been proposed and innova-
tions made on the old ones, and there
seems to be division of opinion as to
what battle-cry will be the most effective
and at the same time be the least injurious
to the throat of the rooter. Though it is
admitted that some OF the i'm
proved yells are much easier of rendition,
yet a majority cling to the old slogan of
war, because it has served the unworthy
so admirably for the past two or three
decades.
The second eleven, which defeated the
Stockton Athletic Assoc iation team yes
terday at Goodwater Grove by score OF
"a to 0. returned late tonight much elated
over their victory. They reported having
had royal time last evening as the guests
of the association.

The New Electric Line.

The new electric car service over Ellis, Hyde,
OFarrell and Devisadero street started yester-
day morning. There was some doubt on the
part of those who boarded the cars at Ellis
and Market streets as to just where they were
going to end up, but the route of the cars was
not so hard to learn as the system of transfers
which went into operation. The new line
transfers in one direction or another with
about every line it passes or crosses but the
cars themselves run to the park, and as most
of the passengers were desirous of getting
there there was not much trouble encountered.
