BERKELEY.

Yesterday morning about II o'clock Con-
stable Brotherton arrested a boy named
Martin Welch for train-iumping. Yester-
day afternoon the l o'clock local, on its
way to the pier, ran over George Bly, a
schoolboy of Golden Gate, crushing both
legs and bruising the body.
1t is favorite plan of the boys to Jump
from front car and catch the rear plat
form bar and board the train again while
it is running between North Berkeley and
Berkeley. This was probably what George
Bly, was trying to do yesterday. He had
on rubber coat and rubber boots, so that
he could not manage himself as well as
usual. AS he jumped from the front plat
form he was thrown under the car, his legs
falling across the rail. One leg was crushed
between the foot and knee, the left leg be-
tween the knee and thigh, the wheels pass
ing diagonally over the poor fellows legs
Both legs were amputated close to the
body. The surgeons have little hope of
his recovery from the shock. Bly, is about
13.years of age and lives at Golden Gate.
Were the Trustees Duped?
The license to keep a saloon in Lorin
which J. A. Munson secured after siren
uous efforts has been from the beginning
a source of disquietude to Mr. Munson
from the objection of his neighbors. Re-
Gently new move was made by suit
brought by A. B. Dixon against the Trus-
tees OF the town of Berkeley for issuing
illegally saloon license to J. A. Munson,
The defendant has filed astipulation which
admits the granting of the license and it's
mode OF procedure in the matter. Mr..
Dixon lives next door to Mr.. Munson and
when no attention was paid to his objec-
ton to saloon at his door, he not having
signed the petition, he brought suit in the
Superior Court. The complaint alleges
that OF the five signers to Mr.. Munson's
petition but one was a property-owner
three of the others being tenants of this
prooperty-owner, and the fifth being his
wife.
Another Professor in Town Affairs.
AT the special meeting of the board of
directors OF the Holmes Library Thursday
evening Professor Thomas r. Bacon was
elected to fill the vacancy in the board
caused by the resignation of Mr.. Layman
Professor Bacon has accepted the position.
The recent election of Professor Jones as
Town Trustee and now that of Professor
Bacon as library director cause the towns
men 10 say new era has begun when the
university men willingly accept their
places as citizens of the town in which
tney i've and share its duties and respon-
sibilities.

THEY WANT A LABOR LAW.
The Labor Council EntertainS a
Resolution.
The Legislature Will Do Asked to Provide
Work for the Many I'm.
employed.

The San Francisco Labor Council, at its
regular meeting last night, discussed the
possibility of securing State employment
for the unemployed. Nicholas Blum was
the author of a resolution on the subject
The resolution in question reads as follows:
WHEREAS, The main purpose of trades unions
is to maintain scale of wages as nearly equal
TO the volume of products as a sound and stable
business will allow and whereas to realize the
fruition of this purpose the labor market, so
called, must not exceed the demand; and
whereas, the monopolization of land and the
growing use of machinery tend to the increase
of the labor market and the decrease of the
wages of labor; and whereas, these results, al
ready in the order of natural sequence and not
removable while the conditions governing
them remain unaltered, are visible in the So
cial phenomenon of millions of idle men with
out purchasing power and stores and ware
houses bursting with products for which there
are no buyers; therefore be 1t
Resolued, That this council draft bill to be
placed before the Legislature now in session at
sacramento, said bill to embody in its pro-
visions measures looking TO the productive
employment OF the unemployed, in manner
1nlm1cal to, and corrective OF, the causes
which produced them, as outlined in the fore
going preamble.
Mr.. Blum suggested that the resolution
should be adopted at once, and copies
thereof sent to the various labor councils
throughout the State. This proposition
the delegates; for what reason did not APP
pear clear. 1t was finally referred to the
executive committee for future action and
reference.
Among the communications read to the
council was one from Attorney A. L. Hart
of Sacramento, in which he denied having
received any moneys from any other
labor organization than through the San
Francisco Labor Council for defending
the strikers. 1t had been reported that
other organizations had sent in contribu-
tons of cash, but this Mr.. Hart emphati-
cally denies.
The Tailors' Union reported that the
strike is still on and that the maniac
turers who employ non-union men are
losing trade.
The cigar-makers reported business dull
and urged the delegates to use their in
f1uence with their respective unions and
their friends to boycott all cigars not
bearing the union label. There is con-
siderable influx of non-union-made cigars
from the East which greatly interferes
with the work in San Francisco.
The nominations of candidates for Office,
to be voted on the first week in February,
were then resumed and continued until
the entire list had been gone through.

SIOUX MYTHOLOGY.
An Interesting Study of the Works of
the Great Mystery.


Before the advent of the white man these
people believed that the earth was fat
with a circular form, and was suspended
in dark place and sheltered by the heaven
or sky in the shape Of hollow hemis-
phere. The sun was regarded as the father
and the earth the mother of all things that
live and grow, and as they had been mar
ried long time and had become the
parents of many generations, they were
called the great-grandparents. As near as
| can judge the moon seemed to be their
servant; at least, she was required to
watch, together with her brothers, the
stars, over the sleeping universe, while the
sun came down to rest with his family. In
the thunder-bird they believed God had q
warrior who presided over the most power
full elementS-the storm and the fearful
cyclone. This symbolic creature is de-
picted as an impatient and wrathy son of
war, at whose appearance even the ever
smiling grandfather, the sun, hides his
face. In the realms of water the whale is
the symbolized chief of the finny tribes.
In every great lake the Sioux imagines a
huge fish as ruler of its waters.
Yet none OF these possess the power of
speech. The Great Mystery had shown
them some truths denied to man. but he
did not trust them fully, therefore he made
them dumb. They can only show to man
some supernatural things by signs or in
dreams, as, for instance, to foretell future
events or explain the use of certain power
full remedies. The savage holds that the
key of heaven is vested in the visible phe-
nomena of the universe All creatures,
save man, are assigned to peculiar para
disc, in which there is a forbidden fruit,
namely, the apple of speech and reasoning
Hence the animals and inanimate things
are exempted from sin. Thus it is that
rocks, trees and rivers are surrounded with
an atmosphere of grandeur, beauty and
mystery. Nature is the interpreter of the
Great Mystery, and through her man is
convinced of truth. = Popular Science

IS INDICTED FOR ARSON.
De WintOn Accused Of Firing His
Own Home.
The Basement Had Been Packed With
Papers and ShaVings Saturated
With Coal Oil.

The Grand Jury yesterday reported an
indictment against De Winton for arson.
Judge Sanderson fixed his bail at $4,000.
Winton is draughtsman, who was en-
ployed in the Union Iron Works, and was
suspected of having set fire to his house
out in the Mission some months ago. The
fire occurred on Sunday night and was a
most extraordinary one. 1t occurred early
in the morning, and when the flames were
extinguished the basement was found to be
full of papers and shavings, carefully ar
ranged and all saturated with coal
oil. There would have been no hope for
the house had the flames got any Roadway.
The timely discovery OF a neighbor, who
saw the flames, called the department to
the scene. No direct proof could be OBJ
tanned against Winton, though he was sus-
pected. During the last few days Fire
Marshal Towe and other witnesses con-
nected with the case have been attending
the Grand Jury and Winton's Indictment
is the result. 1t is thought by those who
believe that Winton set fire to the house
that he desired to get the insurance, which
was greater than the value of the property.

THE NAUTCH DANCER.
A Living Incarnation of the Chitor
Sculptorss Dream.

The tent was already densely packed
with Hndoo spectators, a line of statu-
esque torch-bearerS stood around a long
carpet, and at the end of the carpet lay
gold-worked crimson velvet. This was
the Rajah's place. but as he had sent word
that he could not be present, the music
struck up when our party had seated
themselves in row of chairs on a raised
platform at the right. Then the dancing
single dances accompanied with song or
recitative, ending with a performance by
the court actors. After a preliminary
ballet, in which two or three took part,
a dainty little parsonage came forward
filmy cloud of black gold gauze,
which foated airily about her; she was
the living incarnation of the Nautch, as
interpreted by the sculptors of Chitor;
from the air of laughing assurance with
jects, it was evident that she was accus-
toned to homage and sure of conquest.
She held her audience absorbed ii ex-
pectant, by the -monotonous and plaintive
cadence of her song, by long glances full
of intense meaning from half-closed
and mood, as well as by the spell of
woven PAGES and of waving arms.' One
may see many a Nautch without retain
ing such a vivid impression; much of its
force was owing, no doubt, to the fitness
of the place and the charm of the strange
smoking torches, the mingling of musky
odors with the empowering scent of at
tar of roses, and of whiting jasmine flow
ers; these perfumes were intensified in
the night the prelude to the iercer heat
which comes with the morning and the
rising of .the hot wind.-H9rper's Maya
zine for October.
