BERKELEY.

The session of the town legislative body
was extremely quiet Monday evening.
Engineer Higgins presented his estimate
of the cost of a storm sewer, from the East
end to the bay, as being $178000, or $40 for
each 50-foot lot drained by the sewer. The
district to be assessed for the construction
is bounded on the south by Bancroft way,
on the north by Virginia street, and on the
east by Shattuck avenue.
This leaves the University grounds
drained by the sewer out of the list of
the taxes, State property being exempt
from taxation under the general law,
although by special act of the Legislature
a sum might be appropriated. The
matter was laid over until the special
meeting of the board Saturday evening.
The request of the Students Cooperative
Wood Supply for license was referred to
the License Committee.
The Alameda Water Company defended
its rates, stating that 10 cents per 1000 gal
Ions for street sprinkling and 80 cents for
hydrants was exceptionally low, and in
stanced other cities paying higher rates.
The board will discuss rates Saturday
evening. The Electric Light Company
estimates the cost of extending the circuit
the required number of arcs to be 1891 81.
On December 3 the board appropriated
$3.50 toward the purpose.
The long dormant question OF reducing
the liquor license was brought up by Trus-
tee Hadlen, and postponed for discussion
until Saturday evening.
A Big Caravansary.
Some capitalists of town are turning
over the possibilities in large first-class
hotel in Berkeley, looking to making the
town winter health resort. Several years
ago the building known as Peralta Hall
was constructed at Peralta Park and ele-
gantly furnished at great expense, only to
become white elephant on its owners
hands. The present enterprise looks to
locating its health inn in town, and to
make its cost more commensurate with a
reasonable return from business that is
yet to be developed.

The Charter Amendments.

question which Is agitating the Citizens
Municipal League in regard to the city
charter. At the last session the matter
was argued pro and con until a late hour
without arriving at any definite conclu-

amendments, as is the vice-president.

Board of Supervisors held a short meeting
yesterday afternoon, at which but little
business was transacted. A recommends

it should be built for $4,000. The City
Clerk was instructed to advertise for bids

made against the acceptance of Architect
Cuthbertson's plan for the addition to the
Porter schoolhouse. Architects G. A.
Bordwell and Benjamin f. Lambour each
protested against it. Bordwel claimed
that he was the boards architect and
should have made the plan. Lambour al
legged that Cuthbertson's plan did not fol-
low the specifications as laid down by the
School Board, and that his did. Both par
ties will be given a chance to explain their
views next Monday evening.

PLAOE-HUNTERs GALORE.
The Lives OF Supervisors Endangered by
Hungry Office-Seekers.

Persons having business on the second
floor of the City Hall yesterday could
hardly force their way through the crowd
that thronged the corridors. The throng
was composed of men who were after po-
sitions or who had been disappointed in
getting them on Monday. There are now
very few positions to give, yet the number
of applicants seems to increase in proper
ton as the places decrease in number. 1t
was hardly worth the life OF Supervisor to
appear IN the corridors ad 81 ne you'd be I'M
rushing to him at once. During the day
the clerks of the Board of Supervisors are
kept busy issuing certificates of appoint
ment to those who were lucky enough to
secure positions on Monday. The Super
visors will not make any more appoint
ments before next Monday.

proposed. Why, it is absurd, except in its
terms, which are despotic enough.
Even if it were carried, an event which
do not contemplate, it is my belief that
the resolution would prove a nullity and
expire of its inherent absurdity. Teachers
may rely on me when it comes up for
hearing giving some ringing objections to
its ADOPTION !"

At the annual meeting of the Young
Mems Christian Association President D.
Z. Collins referred to the revival of interest
incident to the efforts of Noel H Jacks,
the new secretary. The membership has
been doubled in five months and the reh-
gious work largely augmented. The edu-
cational classes and extension lectures
have been largely attended. Work is
being pushed on physical and social lines.
An effort is now being made to raise
1000 to wipe out the floating debt and
provide for the work of the current year.
The members of the new board of trustees
elected at the annual meeting are: J. J..
Valentine, S. T. Alexander, f. F. Barbour,

George Burbeck, G. E. Brinkerhoff, G. B.

Still Fighting the Will.
1t looks as though the contestants of the
will of the late Anna i. Murphy proposed
to fight to the last legal ditch the division
of the estate according to the will, which
leaves out the sons and Lady Wolseley
Notwithstanding the decision of the Su-
preme Court reversing the decision of
Judge Henshaw, who is now on the Su-
preme Court bench, counsel for contestants
have obtained an extension of thirty days
from Judge Prick in which to prepare and
serve their bill of EXCEPTIONS An order
has also been made substituting the Union
Trust Company as administrator of the
estate of Eugene Kelly Murphy as party
in the suit.
Bonds by Deputies.
Sheriff White has been besieged since
his election to Office by applicants for ap-
polntments as outside deputies, without
pay. The privilege of wearing a Deputy
Sheriffs badge is sought after by many
private watchmen and others, and not a
few persons i'll the past have abused it,
as few persons could discriminate between
regular deputy and an outside officer who
is seldom seen by the Sheriff.
In order to secure himself against i'm
position by irresponsible parties, Mr..
White has established the rule that he will
require bond of $1,000, with two sufficient
sureties, before he issues any appointment
to outside deputies.
