TRANSFERS FOR KEARNY
The Merchants Association
Acting on Behalf of That
Thoroughfare.
Street Railway People Complain of
Unfair Advantages Taken
by PASSENGERS.

The Merchants Association has asked
the Market-street Railway Company for a
map showing the lines in operation and
the system of transfers. One of the objects
of the request is to aid the association in
considering the demand made by Kearny-
street merchants for the extension of the
transfer sy stem between the Market-street
and the Kearny-street lines. There are
other branches of information which the
Merchants Association desires to avail
itself of, one of which is an accurate knowl-
edge of the existing franchises which may
not be in operation and the tracks which
may not be in use for the purposes for
which they were laid down.
Speaking on this subject last night
President Dohrmann of the Merchants As
ISOLATION said that the railway company
had readily assented to the request for the
map and information and that the asso-
citation would soon be in a position to
study several important matters of public
interest.
"Will the existence of unused franchises
be one of the matters the association will
investigate? ?" was asked.
81 cannot say just what we may inves-
tigate," replied Mr.. Dohrmann, "though
the chief object of our request for the in
formation sought is to look into the re-
quest made by the kearny-Street mer-
chants for an exchange of transfers be-
tween the Market-street and Kearny-street
cars. think the company will be willing
to grant the request of the Kearny-street
merchants. We do not ask the streetcar
people to discriminate against any partic-
ular street, but without information to
convince us to the contrary I am of the
opinion that Kearny, being considerable
retail street, ought to get more of the ben
efits of the transfer system.
"The street railway people, acceding to
our request for information, stated that
they also had a grievance which they
thought the Merchants Association
should aid in remedying. The grievance re-
fcrred to was the traffic in transfers am
disposed to aid the company in preventing
that infringement on their rights if there
is any way to accomplish it. 1t is unfair,
as they say, for passengers to engage in
this traffic with the newsboys.
mo, have not given the matter any
particular study, personally, nor has the
association, but the injustice is recognized
and it will be taken up with other matters
when we come to consider such things as
may arise in the study of the information
we shall get from the map and its accom-
panying statistics. There may be several
things that we may think our province to
investigate, but l cannot say now what
they are."

TO BE DOUBLY RELATED.
Arthur Fisk, Son of Asa Fisk, to Be
United to Miss Kate Vert
heimer.

Arthur Fisk, son of Asa Fisk, the CAPT
talist, and Miss Kate Wertheimer will be
married tomorrow evening
Rumor had II yesterday that the mar
rage had taken place secretly on Thursday
evening, but both Mr.. Fisk and Miss Vert
heimer's brother have emphatically con-
tradicted the report.
The history of the affair bears more than
ordinary interest and embodIes some IN
usual inter familv complications. Both
Isaac Wertheimer and his sister until
eight months ago lived with their step
father on Steiner street. Then family
matrimonial series was begun when Miss
Fisk was secretly married to Isaac Vert
heimer. Since their marriage the young
couple have made their home at the resi-
dence OF Asa Fisk on Hayes street.
A little over a month ago kaufman
Wertheimer. the stepfather, took unto
himself another wife, and soon after it be-
came evident to Miss Wertheimer that the
regime of double step-parents was not GO
ing to be filled with happiness for her. So
she moved to the home of her friend, Mrs.
Dinkelspeil, on Ellis street, where she
stayed until this week, and then began a
visit to her brother at 10 home of her
future father-in-law, under whose roof she
is TO be quietly married.

In that portion of Contra Costa County

christened Oliopolis. Surrounding it on
every side are thrifty orchards and rich

The fact that abundant oil is TO be found

O'BRIEN'S WEALTH GONE.
The Land Spectator Tells Judge Sand
erson About His Financial
Standing.

Standing.
Michael O'Brien, land Spectator, who
was wealthy few years ago and owned an
entire township in Kern County, was
brought before Judge Sanderson yesterday
to show why he should not be punished
for neglect to pay $25 month alimony to
his divorced wife. He was asked whether
he had any money, and he replied that he
had 81 80 in the Hibernia Bank. He de-
clared that be had no other assets, his sis
ter owning property that was supposed to
be his. AS to moneys received he testified
that the last time he collected rents for his
sister he kept 81.

Judge Sanderson.
The witness had used the dollar. The
land in Kern County he gave away he
said.
O'Brien had bought hat several weeks
ago.

ney Costello.

"Where?''
"In my pocket"
"How did it get in your pocket?"

The case was continued to give the at
torney chance to show that o. Brien had
fraudulentlv disposed of property that he
might evade the order of the court.

HELPED BY A DEAD DOC,
Queer Discovery Made in the
Condemned Richmond
School.
The Board OF Education Overhaul
ing the Schools That Are in a
Bad Sanitary Condition.

It now turns out that dead dog was the
cause of the condemnation of the Rich
mond School by the Board of Health. 1t
was big dog, hence the extent of the
trouble.
The malodorous condition Of the school
rooms and yard was laid TO the lack OF
proper sewer connections and the Board
of Health ordered the school closed till the
sewer was fixed. The pupils were dis
missed last Wednesday and the Board OF
Education sent out several experts to ex-
anime the place and report on the repairs
necessary.
Then the dead dog developed. He was
found under the planks of the yard and
his condition spoke eloquently of the lack
of attention given him. The sewerage was
in a very bad condition, but the dog was
worse.
report on the dog and the sewerage
was made to the Board OF Education last
night.
Director McElroy offered the following
resolution to get the school again in proper
sanitary condition:
Resolved, That the Committee on Buildings
and Grounds be and they are hereby instructed
to advertise for proposals for raising the Rich
mond School building to the proper grade, and
make sewer connections with 1t to Point LoboS
avenue.
Also bids for moving the offices on Rich
mond lot TO the rear OF said lot, and connect
them by sewer with Point Lobos avenue by
way OF Michigan avenue.
Also bids for suitable Offices to accommodate
the pupils of said school, and the Committee
on Buildings and Grounds be and is hereby
authorized to have the vaults on the school
premises cleared and put the buildings and
grounds in good condition, pending the work
necessary for permanent improvements.
The pupils of the school will be able to
return TO their classrooms next Monday.
By that time the work of cleansing the
yards will be SO far advanced that there
will not be the slightest danger against
health.
The Irving Primary School on Broadway
will next occupy the attention OF
the Board of Health and the Board of Ed
ucation. 1t is said to be even in worse
condition than the Richmond School. 1t
has no sewer outlet, and for some reason
the owners of property on back street
have been allowed to side-sewer to the big
cavity under the school. The condition
of the place is said to be frightfuI, and one
of the biggest menaces to public health in
the City.
There are number of other schools
which have no sewer connection. Health
Officer Lovelace and School Director Nc
Elroy are examining all of them. They
will report to the Board of Health this
morning, and sharp measures will be taken
to see that the sanitary laws are properly
carried out

POOR ENTERTAINMENT.

Most sf Them, Not Worth Hearing.
The fine arts do not seem to be encour
aged at the University of Missouri At
least that is what one would suppose from
hearing the glee and banjo clubs from
Colum bia at the Grand last night.
The men from Missouri gave the con :
cert in one hour. Everything was over
at 9:15. They had no cause to exert
themselves, for they played to less than
$25. On the floor there were but
seven people south of the aisle,
and five of these were plimentaries.
At no time were there more than % peo-
pie on the floor. counting Col. Fred Close
of the Co-operator with his "comps."
Some of these % left after the first two
or three numbers.
The mandolin club really entertained.
but the banjo club should be squelched.
The glee club never harmonized, and
rybody appeared to be singing base,
but one tenor who strained his voice un-
til he grew red in the face. But music
cannot be made in an empty house.
These college glee clubs, all of them,
are more or less of a fake. II they do
have an audience it is because of ex-
graduates who get out and drum up
their friends to GO A college glee club
concert is a social affair, more than a
mu sic al one. The playing is common
place, and the songs fiat and inharmoni-
GUS. The public doesn't care for poor
singing and playing even by college
boys; and there never was . college
comic song that was funny. Boys of 10
or 30 are not old enough to compose
anything witty.
