SHEEHAN WILL MANAGE.
The Ex-Stanford Man to Run
the Olympic Club
Eleven.
He Will Enlist the Services of Sew.
eral of the Best Play
ers Here.

Jack Sheehan, ex-captain of The Stan
ford baseball team, IS TO manage the Olym-
pic football eleven this season. That in
itself almost assures the local men the
gridiron supremacy of the athletic clubs
of the West, for Sheehan is the intimate
friend of most of the players that until
now have been conceded to be Reliance
material.
He was the boon companion at college
OF ex-Football Captain Downing and of
Quarterback Harrelson, and they all with
Weldon, the new Olympic fullback, be.
longed to the same Greek-letter fraternity,
Something of the significance OF this
move on the part of the Olympic Club
may be seen when it is asserted that there
is possibility that even Walton, the cap-
tain-elect OF the Reliance team. may be
drawn over by the new manager. for Wal
ton himself captained the Stanford min q
one season and another played under
Sheehan's captaincy when the baseball
men made victorious tour OF the North
west in 1894.
netic temperament Sheehan was. aside
from his prominence as a basebalI-player
one OF the most popular collegIans durin p
his four years at Palo Alto Last season
after graduation he captained the Olym-
pic baseball team for short time. then
gave up athletics and devoted himself en-
tirely to preparing for the Supreme Court
examination, which he recently passed.
and was admitted to the bar.
The new Olympic manager is a son of
General John +. Sheehan of this CITY.
Leonard Gill, former director of the
Olympic Club, in resigning last night
from the management OF the team, did so
fully acquiescing in the change which he
himself had helped to plan. For some
little time the plan was ahoat, Sheehan
meanwhile quietly working among the
old Stanford players. The result is Har-
relson, who played with Reliance last
year, will be with the Olympics this sea-
son, and Downing, another Reliance
standby. will wear an Olympic suit if an
injured hand does not prevent him from
playing at all.
"The Olympics with the material in
sight, should have the best team thew
have ever had" said Sheehan last nigif

loyalty and with no suspicion of question

10 see the Multnomahs of Portland and

southern trip about Christmas time. but
outside of that we will be satisfied with a
rafting good season right here, as the
schedule already arranged with the two
universities and Reliance insures a game

BIC SURPRISE IN STORE
Alameda Electric-Light Plant
Will Lower the Tax
Levy.
It Will Produce an Income to the
City and There Will Be No Ex-
penSe for Street Lights.

ALAMEDA, CAL, Sept. 1o.-The tax
levy of this city will probably be made at
the first meeting OF the Board OF Trustees
in October, but the members are already
figuring on the proposition, and they have
a surprise in store for the taxpayer that
Will be pleasing, without doubt.
Last year the tax rate was 81 "a on each
500 valuation. This year the memb bers OF
the board expect to come within a dollar
limit. Many of the estimates of the vari-
Gus departments are already in, and the
rest have made an approximation that
will do 10 make an estimate with, and it is
found that, with the $12, 600 that the elec-
tIic plant is expected to bring into the city
treasury, the city can get along very nicely
on a dollar levy.
This will be the first experience the
municipality has had in municipal own
ership reducing taxes, and it is expected
that the lesson will be so pleasant as to
make many of the property-owne wish
that many more Of the city's needs could
be supplied from municipal plants.

A Character.

He wasn't much at farmin, sorter shiftlesslike,
they say.
A rather wild an reckless chap, inclined to
have his way.
His schoolin wasn't perfect, his department
cards were blanks,
An he Worried the teachers with his most
mischievous pranks,
But when Sumter's flag was lowered, in the
spring of sixty-one.
He answered I.incoln's summons, an he shout
dered Of gun,
An the boys who went out with him TUX the
time to send us word
Thet for bravery in action Jack had had some
straps conferred.
As a captain he was nervy, an we heerd about
his luck,
Bout his fate fer turnin bullets like the water
on q duck,
How he rid right up to cannon in most amaz'
in way,
An, fore the fellers knowed it, had 'em p'inted
to Their way.
But luck don't alters hover DER fellow in the
fight,
An they found their captain missin when the
roll was called one night.
An they sent him home to lay him by the side
Of all the rest,
With the wrappin's Of bonny banner blue up.
Then when the war had ended in that glorious
review
That sorter thrilled the nation, passin down
the avenoo
OF our capital, an welcomed were the remnants
of the war.
We let the tears Of pity sorter cleanse out ev-
cry scar.
Then we counted up the heroes of our little
country town,
An local sort Of writer was a-jottin of enl
down.
An we found the place of honor-now, give
it as fac
Had freely been accorded to this same ole
shiftless Jack.
The ole boys amt forgot him, an on Decoration
days.
When G.. A. R. g are meetin an a-singin hymns
Of praise
Fer a reunited country, why, sorter stea
apart
An drop tear in quiet from patriotic heart
clean fergit Jacks failin's, how he used to
give me pain
When used to train young idees in the school
house down the lane,
An seek his grave out yonder, where fiaG
waves in the air.
Then my ole heart burns within me as lay O
lily there.
