ROupen P. Kevorkian, who came ont
from New York a few weeks ago, to
superintend some development work
on a turquoise mine at Burro mountain
belonging to his cousin, H. H. Tabi-
khan, will go to Separ this week with
a force Of four men for the purpose Of
opening some turquoise properties
near that place. Operations in the
Burro mountains have been Temporal
rlly suspended. Mr.. Kevorkien be-
lieves the prospects in the mines near
Separ to be very encouraging.-Sent
mel. These turquoise properties are
located at Hachita, twenty miles
south Of Sepat. They were worked in
prehistoric times by the Indians, who
did a great deal Of e~xcavating. 1t Is
thought il the mines were worked by
modern methods valuable discoveries

Recently Mrs. Doran, who is Of Next

adultery with Serapio Herrera, con-
trary TO the statutes made and pro-
vided by Senator Edmunds, and to
the gregt grief and sorrow OF her dee

proud African blood had reached the
fever heat Of indignation, he laid the
case before Deputy United States

the fair but false Clara were arrested.
Wednesday they were examined and
enough evidence was introduced to
the justice the territorial

fault OF bail he committed them to
jail to await the action Of the United

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.
Annual Meeting of Grad yates of the
University of California-Elec-
tion of Officers.

At the annual meeting of the Alumni
Association of the University of Cali
fornla last night at the Mark Hopkins In
stitute of Art there was an attendance of
about fifty members, including fair pro-
portion of co-eds.
When the amendment to the const;tu-
tion providing for the admission as men,
bers of the association of graduates OF the
affiliated colleges came up it was laid over
for final action until the next annual
meeting.
In the report the president announced
that the LIE Conte fellowship fund of
$40, 600 was almost completed. This is the
fund the interest of which, $500, is awarded
each year by the Alumni Association for a
fellows ship in the University of California.
Appropriate allusion was made to the
death during the year of three members of
the -Lieutenant-Governor Red

to the fact that the attendance of students

ally Themselves With High
Jinks, Etc.

1t was Christmas at the Press Club last
evening, and the clubs principal COM
modify ospitality-was free as air to all
the guests who thronged its rooms.
The Christmas jinks were on, and from
early in the evening-that is early for the
Press Club-the free and easy style of en-
tertainment characteristic OF that organ
ization was running and the stage in the
alcove was kept filled with the best talent
of bohemia.
Decorations were not spared. On the
walls, over the fireplace, around the sides
of the alcove where stood the stage, and
around the frames of the big pictures
which adorn the walls the holiday green
was twined and scattered. Christmas and
red berries Iurked in every niche and cor
ner OF the main room.
The stage itself was a bower of verdure
and Arthur Barendt, the sire. sat in state
upon it, blue pencil in his hand, and
showing an expanse of shirt front that the
less favored mortals in the rows of seats
looked upon with awe and envy.
In the inner rooms, in the sacred pre-
cincts of the pedro apartments, the card
ia bles were for once put aside and in theil
place was sparkling beer for the multitude
Nor did newspaper hospitality stop at the
faucet. Close at hand were plates of sand
wiches, with the contents heaped high
besides other relishes to enliven the way
between the table and the keg.
The programme was very like that
which used to be given at the old late
watches in the Pine-street rooms-more
like them than any of the later affairs at
the club-and the men who participated
were all members of the club.
c. NJ. Coe. president of the club, opened
the proceedings. He welcomed the guests
and gave them the clubs holiday greet
ing. He introduced Barendt, the sire, and
Barendt lost no time in starting the enter
tainment.
Music, recitations, witticisms, local hits
and sarcasms, words from well-known
people and mirth-provoking anecdotes
kept the interest at the highest pitch until
the blue pencil dropped for the last time.
Homer Henly, Frank Coffin, Sam Tucker
and Jack Rafael sang their best.
Judge Hunt, with his dry humor and his
pointed wit, left the stage long before the
audience was willing to let him.
Sigmund Beel and his violin-the one
which so often charms even the pedro
players from their cards s. reused the
people into a pitch of enthusiasm which
left haEd-clapping entirely inadequate and
vented itself in shouts of bravo"
There were four quartets on hand, the
and the clubs own Press Club Quartet, and
after each had sung its merriest, the four
joined together in chorus.

d. Armes and G. ]. Stilwell appeared and
talked, Fred Gutterson tuned up his
cello and played his sweetest and Daniel
SuIly. Robert Downing, Eugene Bowles
and Ferris Hartman did what they could
and that was not ittle-to liven the pro-
gramme.
1t was not until after 12-long after
12-that the last man on the programme
stepped down, and the blue pencil raped
the jinks adjourned. But it was still early
for the Prese Club.

Action Of the Trustees in the
Matter Of Road.Widening
Denounced.
RUMoRs OF IMPEACHMENT.
Property. Holders Object to Having
Their Homes Sliced - The
Situation.

| There is serious trouble brewing in the
generally peaceful burg of Sausalito, in
Marin County, on account of the action
of the Board of Town Trustees in ordering
the widening of the roads, according to
the original survey of the town. People
living in the aristocratic part of Sausalito,
which is the district most affected by the
order of the board, have raised great row
aud lawsuits are threatened on every side.
| Some have even been so rash as to sug-
gest the impeachment of the board OF
| trustees, which is composed of Messrs.
John H. Dickinson (president), T. H.
Hughes, O. G. Miller, James w. Sperry
and III. j. Crumpton.
| Years ago when the town was laid out
and the original surveys made, stakes were
driven into the ground outlining the prop
erty set apart for the roads.
1t was not long before the stakes became
loose and were broken off and lost, and
when people fenced in their property, they
only left thirty foot roads, where the
original surveys called for sixty feet. On
one of the roads which the Town Truste es
ordered widened, are situated the hom es
of Charles L. Barrett, Commodore
Henry Harrison, Charles Mason. A.
F. Marvin, D. Childs Macdonald,
DR.. III. j. Crumpton and number of other
prominent men of Sausalito and San Fran
cisco. 1t is from these that the principal
amount of complaint is heard, for the
widening of the road to its original width
would leave A. F. Marvin's house half on
his own property and half on the road.
Charles L. Barrett. the secretary of the
San Francisco Gas Company, would be

rear Of his house, and as he has Just gone
to considerable expense in repairing the
effects of a landslide which occurred on
his property he does not feel like shaving
off the three feet of his home which is Oh
the roadway.
Mrs. Charles Mason will lose a mag
niticent tennis court if the road is widened
to sixty feet, and she is decidedly opposed
to the scheme.
DIR. Crumpton would lose his back fence,
but says he does not mind that as much as
the losing of his property.
James Bell, having recently erected a
house on his property, is decidedly against
widening the road, as the line brings his
house over half way on the highway.
Mr.. Shepard's stone wall, erected at con-
siderable expense, would have to be sacri-
feed and he does not take kindly to the
scheme.
DR.. D. Childs Macdonald's barn would
occupy central position on the street if
the road is widened, and Captain Harrison
would be without stone wall.
Everything in Sausalto had been going
| along nicely for years, until some two
months ago the Board of Town Trustees
met and decided to extend the width of
the roads.
Ernest Mccullough, the town engineer,
commenced a systematic reoutlining OF
the roads. 1t was then found that nearly
every fence and many houses in the bon

ton district of the town were upon the
property of the township.
| A few days later the Trustees held spe-
| cial meeting to hear Mr.. McCullough's re-
port, and to their surprise it was found
that among the list of sixty citizens in
| fringing upon town property four OF the
names were those of the Trustees.
| There was an attempt TO let the matter
| drop, but Mccullough, the engineer, had
received his orders. and he intended to
carry them out. The engineers report
| leaked out, and the non-infringers took
| the matter in hand, and the work OF re-
surveying the town went on. More names
were added to the list of those occupying
the highways, and things commenced to
| look black.
| Another special and secret meeting OF
| the Board of Town Trustees took place,
and it was decided to inform the infringers
of their position, and to request the re-
moval of every house. fence, wall, garden,
| barn, tennis court and anything else that
did not belong to the municipality. Ac-
cordingly letters were sent to all property
owners against whom there was any claim
on account of overestimating their
possessions.
These letters were got up in the best.

recipients did not look favorable toward

ton meetings, and some have suggested
the impeachment of the unfortunate
Board of Trustees, who did all in their
power to suppress the outbreak, and would
have done so if it had not been for the
overZealous engineer.
1t is now learned that the town has
made arrangements to fight its side of
| the matter in the courts. Commodore
Harrison and Henry Schnell, both large
property-owners in the town, have con-
suited counsel and Mr.. Harrison does not
intend to lose his stone wall without
| fight.
1t is probable that the offenders against
the town will unite ana make bold fight
to retain the property.
Many attempts have been made 10 buy
the disputed territory, but the town re-
fuses to sell, and the trustees say the mat
ter will only end when the people peace
| fully submit to the widening of the road,
which the trustees claim is the legal and
proper way. If the people refuse to sub.
NIT there will be trouble.

the bubbling spring which decorates the
label of every bottle of Apollinaris water.
OF those who are ware of the authorship
of this widely circulated design probably
not more than half dozen know how Mr..
Du Maurier came to make it. The prin-
cipal stockholder of the Apollinaris COM
pany is an old and intimate friend of the
author of "Trilby." When the mineral
water was first put upon the market he
was in doubt as to a design for the label,
and having happened to mention the mat
ter to Mr. Du Maurier, the artist at once
volunteered to draw something and his
offer was gladly accepted.
The original design was signed by him

omitted in the printed reproduction. An
intimate friend once asked Mr.. Du Mau-
rier how on earth he happened to do such
thing and received the reply: II would
do anything for my friend" Our revela-
ton of the source of the label will scarcely
enhance Mr.. Du Maurier's artistic reputa-
ton, but it will certainly prove the SIM
plicity and loyalty of his friendship.-The

Code Commissioner Baldwin, who was

ance, stated yesterday that physically his
cond ition was somewhat improved, but
that he had not recovered his mental bal
ance. There was a little rise in the tenn
perature, which was the cause of some
anxiety owing to the danger of disturb
ance to the brain.
He was able to walk yesterday, but
could not talk nor comprehend what was
going on. DR.. Whitney yesterday called
in consultation two other physicians, and
there will be held another consultation
this morning. The physicians state that
the patient is in such condition that they
do not know what has taken place in the
brain. There may have been rupture OF
blood vessels, but how serious they are
unable as yet to determine.
