{, B. POMEROY IS NO MORE
Death of the Well.Known Editor
of the Oakland Morning
Times.
HE LED A VERY ACTIVE LIFE.
Ten Years the Dist riot Attorney of
Arizona-He Made a Fortune
in Real Estate.
HE LED A VERY ACTIVE LIFE.

E. B. Pomeroy, editor and proprietor of
the Oakland Times, died at his home at
midnight last night after an illness of two
weeks. His death was not unexpected by
his friends as he had been in poor health
for several years.
Mr.. Pomeroy led an active life, and had
always been more or less identified with
public enterprises, having held many
prominent positions.
He was born at Richfeld, Ohio, Novem-
Der 5, 1850, and came to California in 1865.
In the following year he entered the prepar-
atory department of the State University
and graduated in 1891, taking the second
honor. After leaving the university Mr..
Pomeroy read law in the office of Jarboe &
Harrison.
He took an active interest in politics,
and was chosen president of the Republi-
can club of Alameda. In 1875 he was ad-
mitted to the bar.
President q. S. Grant appointed the
young lawyer District Attorney for Arl-
IONA, which office he held for ten years
and never lost case.
In 1875 Mr.. Pomeroy married Miss
Anna l.. Blake, daughter of the late
Francis Blake of San Francisco.
In June, 1881, he was selected as vice.
president OF the New Mexico and Arizona
Railway Company and secretary of the
Tucson and California Railway.
The arduous duties of his Office as Dis
trict attorney and railroad official began to
tell upon Mr.. Pomeroy's health and in 1885
he resigned the position of District Attor-
ney of Arizona and moved to Oakland.
In the latter part of 1889 Mr.. Pomeroy be-
came one of the partners in the real estate
firm of A. H. Breed & Co. OF San Fran
cisco, where he amassed considerable for
tune.
Mr.. Pomeroy was one of the anti-rail-
road men who had the courage to become
a director in the Davje Ferry and Trans
portatlon Company in 1898.
His last important venture was the pur-
chase of the Oakland Times last October.
He conducted the business of that daily
up two weeks ago, when mis- health broke
down and resulted in his death.

A NEW CHURCH.
st. PauPs Episcopal Congregation or
California Street Has Decided
to Build.

The parish of st. Pauls Episcopal Church
on California street, between Fillmore and
Steiner, is about to celebrate its twenty
fifth anniversary, and as the congregation
is fourishing one and the church is en-
tirely out of debt it has been decided to
build new church upon the present site.
ST. Paul's is one of the smallest Episco-
palian churches in the City, but it pos
sesses more ground than the present struc-
ture covers, as the lot on California street
is 6S feet broad and 1877 :6 feet deep. When
the new building is erected the present
church will be removed to the rear OF the
lot and be used as a Sunday-school and a
hall in which concerts or lectures can be
given.
1t is proposed to spend $12,500 in erect
ing a new church. This sum would not
defray the cost of stone building. but it
is intended to build the new church of red
wood on a brick foundation. Several
plans have been submitted to the vestry,
but a decision has not yet been made.
Ground will not be broken till the sum of
$4,000 is in hand, free from all obligations.
This is in accordance with the policy of
the church, which has been free from debt
for years, and which objects now to plung-
ing into the cost of building without
substantial sum to begin operations on.
1t is expected that the $4,000 will soon be
in hand, as $3400 has already been sub
scribed, and an active canvass is going on
to raise the remaining $500.
The present rector OF ST. Pau's Church
is Rev. William Maxwell Reilly who has
held the position for the last year as the
successor of Rev. F. j. Mynard. now of
st. Johns, Oakland. ST. Paul's Church is
the only one in this City that has a sur
pliced choir of young ladies, though the
custom is usual enough in the East.

FORTUNE LOST BY DEATH,
Shelby Martin Had Agreed to
Provide Handsomely for
His Wife.
Had She Lived Two Days Ten Thou.

908 Broadway, Dec. 5.
If Valerie Hickethier Martin had lived
forty-eight hours longer she would have
been practically free from her husband
and have been in possession OF $4,000.
These facts were made public only to-day
The story of the contract marriage in
the Maison Piedmont has been told several
times, and when Mrs. Valerie Martin was
found dead in bed on the morning of
November it was suggested that she had
committed suicide. Now it is known that
she had less reason than at any previous
time for being anxious to end her life. For
five wears she was the secret wife of Shelby
Martin, and it was not until love began to
wane that the secret was revealed. No
suit was commenced to annul the marriage,
but the couple lived apart, and the
romance was about forgotten when, less
than a month ago, Valerie Martin sud-
denly expired.
Deputy Tax Collector Knapp, who is a
relative. by marriage, of the late Mrs.
Martin, attempted to bring about a recon-
ciliation, and, failing in that, he arranged
an agreement By which the marriage was
TO be annulled on the application of
Shelly Martin, and in consideration of
$4,000 Mrs. Martin was not to make any
contest and was to leave Oakland.
''The agreement was all in shape for
being signed by the attorneys" said Mr..
Knapp to-day, land on the Saturday fol-
lowing her death the document would
have been executed. / attended to the
matter for Mrs. Martin, who is relative
OF mine, and had she lived a few days
longer she would have received $4,000"
The action of Mr.. Martin in agreeing to
make such handsome provision for his
wife, rather than attempt to use his wealth
to prove that the contract was illegal, is
very highly commended by friends of both
ma rites

Chapter, Order of the

ALAMEDA, Call, Dec. 5.-The Alameda
Telegram failed to appear yesterday morn
ing. The reason was that the office was
taken in charge by the Constable at IL
o'clock the evening before. The Constable
had his official lock on the door and the
place was dark and deserted. The attach
ment was placed upon the Office upon a
claim of George Bing for $50 rs, alleged to
be due for services as reporter.
There has been great deal OF trouble of
late between the proprietors OF the paper.
A month ago E. L. Marshall sold a half
interest to James G. Tyrrell. w thin
week Tyrrell claims to have found that
the paper affairs had been misrepresented
to him. The partners then began to quar-
rel, and finally Marshall transferred his
interest to G.. A. Dodge. Marshall had
formally retired from the paper, but Dodge
had not taken formal charge OF his inter-
est when the Constable came along with
the attachment and vastly complicated
things. 1t is understood that Bing, In
suing out the writ of attachment, was en-
couraged by Tyrrell, as the two are warm
friends.
