once shorn of nearly all his power of de-
fense because his antagonist is woman.
He entered general denial to-day to all
the allegations of Miss Eubanks' COM
plant. He starts out by denying all that
part of the complaint that comes under the
knowledge and belief clause, and then
begins in earnest. He says:
81 will agree that Miss Eubanks is "a
coming woman and has always been
faithful student, and so long as she says
so | will agree that early in life she con-
cluded that the study of law was her forte.
l will also admit. since she says so, that
she made herself conversant with Cooleys
Blackstone and the more complicated
branches of jurisprudence. l deny that
our organization IS boys BRIGADE or
that Miss Eubanks applied for admission
that she might profit by the mistakes OF
the Students
THE facts OF the case are these: A
clause in our constitution provides that
person TO be eligible to membership in our
association must be male citizen of good
moral character between II and 25 years of
age said he.
ED Gehring proposed the name of Miss
Susie Eubanks for membership. 1t was
laid on the ia bic for week. Upon coming
up for discussion last Monday night Archie
Mcdonald argued that Miss Eubanks was
not eligi BILE. as our constitution stated that
any person wishing to become mem Der
of our association must be male and re-
ferred to the clause in the constitution.
After long discussion ruling by the
chair was called for and the chair sus-
tanned McDonald's point of order An
appeal was Immediately taken. The mem
bers then voted TO sustain Mcdonald and
the president. Personally l was in favor
OF admitting Miss Eubanks, and had Mr..
Gehring, in proposing her name, gone
about it properly-that is, by offering an
amendment to the constitution admitting
ladies' would have worked for its pas
sage. After seeing that there was no wav
in which to make her a member Mr..
Gehring withdrew her name.
1T is very possible that the amendment
to the constitution may yet pass and then
ladies will be admitted. / want to have
their refining influence shed on our delib-
eratlons."
Miss frankie Lane, who was refused
admittance to the Alameda County Law
Association few months ago, is support
ing Miss Eubanks in her fight against mas
cullne tyranny.
"Why, | thought they formed this new
organization in order to admit women
she said to-day. "The trouble all lies in
the fact that the male students are afraid
OF what the newspapers will say in regard
to the matter. That was what made the
other association refuse to admit me. The
boys read some sensational article in a
newspaper, and were SO weak-minded as
TO allow it to sway their opinions.
"a woman has the right to join any
incorporated association for the purpose of
gaining legal knowledge, and it is shame
when she is refused admittance. All that
| can say of the Associated Law Students
is that as American gentlemen they have
acted IN smal-minded way in refusing
to admit ladies in their organization"

POLICEMEN TO CONTEST.
Oakland's Star -Wearers Think
They Can Out-Shoot San
FranciScanS.
THEIR CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
After the First Match a Trophy Will
Be Shot For at Regular
Intervals.
THEIR CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL.
9O8 Broadway, March II.

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALI
908 Broadway, March II.
The San Francisco Police Department,
by Captain Whitman, has accepted the
challenge OF the Oakland department to
shoot off match at She'll Mound Park
on the 28th of this NORTH.
For a long time there has been monthly
medal contest between the members of the
Oakland force, and the decoration has
freely changed hands. The men think
they are, on the whole, second to none on
the coast, and many tales of prowess are
told in the little waiting-room where the
officers report on and off. There is as
much interest taken i'll the monthly shoot
as in the arrest of gold-brick men and boy
burglars, and the efficiency OF the police as
regards craftsmanship is undoubtedly
good. Consequently the match with the
San Francisco force is being looked for
ward to with great interest. and bets are
being freely maze, but always with Oak
land on the long end, as local confidence
is very great.
The little neatly sewn leather medal, let
tered In gold, which is the only induce
ment so far offered for excellency, is at
present held by Officer Jacobus. 1t has been
many matches have been made over it in
dependent of the regular monthly shoot.
There is also another medal that no one
will wear. 1t was manufactured by Jailor
Swain and is made of wood, and is about
foot in diameter. There is some doubt as
to who it should decorate, but there is
never any demand for it, and it is said
that it is now the property OF Oflcer
Mackey, but he denies it. This medal Is
the legitimate property of the man whose
bullets strike nearest the fence surround
ing the bullseye.
Captain Fletcher has not yet named his
team, but it will be taken from the follow
ing, all of whom have at one time or
another worn the gilt-lettered medal:
Officers Arnert, Andrews, Banks, Jacobus,
Kingsbury, Mccarthy Shanl, Shredder,
Scanlan, Sill, Jailer Swain and Detective
Williams. All of these men have fre-
quently made full scores, and will be a
bard team to beat.
The San Francisco captain has about
200 men to select from, while Captain
Fletcher's entire force does not exceed
fifty men. The rifles to be used are A.
caliber Winchesters.
The local men are taking frequent trips
to the Shell Mound ranges and practicing,
and frequent references are made to the
turkey and champagne that the defeated
San Franciscans will have to pay for when
the match is over.
1t is very probable that after the first
match has been decided a handsome
trophy will be hung up to be shot for at
stated periods.

were used in abundance. Rev. Robert
Rltchie officiated at the ceremony, which
took place in the library bay-wlndoW
under floral wedding bell of pink ana
white flowers
The bride was attended by her two
cousins as maIds of honor, Miss Lou VII
hams OF Scranton, Penn, and Miss Ger
trude Allen, who were in costumes OF white
tulle. The bridesmaid, Miss Clara Con
verse, another cousin, was attired IN PINK
and white.
The groom was attended by Thomas Ar
neal. Following the ceremony. an
elaborate banquet was served in the dining,
room, which was decorated with pink ana
white. A striking feature in this room
were three floral weddingbells suspended
over the table.
The bride is the only daughter OF Mr.
and Mrs. L. Brom well of Ninth and Madl-
son streets, and has been favorlte III local
social circles. The groom is the son OF ex-
Mavor J. West Martin, president OF the
Union Savings Bank, in which institution
he occupies q responsible position.

mixing the leavings and scrapings of pipes
with crude opium and cooking it over
again. They were not operating largely,
and probably doing little business with
few of their countrymen who could only
afford the poorest quality of the drug. The
Deputy Collector put handouts on them
and brought them to the jail, when he
found that he did not have the key, and
the irons were perforce permitted to re-
main on the prisoners all night. This
morning they were sawed off.
City Hall Chime.
ALAMEDA CAL, March 11.-An effort
is being made to provide chime of eight
bells for the new City Hall tower. 1t is
estimated taat the chimes will cost $16O0
A good start toward that sum has been
raised from donations, and it is expected
the patriotic citizens will do something
more In that line. Besides it is proposed
to give entertainments and to add to the
fund in any legitimate way possible. The
chime will be set to play the National
hymn :'America," besides other airs.
There is no other chime like the one pro-
posed in any public building in California.

city, and still retains very generous slice
of it. He purchased in 1887 all the exten-
sive holdings of Horace w. Carpenter. 1t
was in several parcels, and EN- mbraced
nearly 100 acres, and some of it was the
choicest property in Alan eda, located
along Central and contiguous avenues.
He held number of auction sales and
realized good prices, but of late his prop
erty has not been pushed on the market.
All of it is good, however. He still owns
a fourth of the original purchase. The
original purchase price was $l60000. The
Senator has not been in Alameda to look
after his interests for five years.
Failure to Provide.
ALAMEDA, CAL, March lie. G.
Brock was to-day arrested on a warrant
issued out Of the San Francisco Police
Court on a charge of failure to provide for
his minor child. He was Immediately re-
leased on bonds. He is the second son of
the late Christian Brock, in his life we'll

Brooks wife secured a divorce from him
three months ago. With the divorce she
also secured the custody of their minor
child and $50 month for the child's sup

cause of the arrest. Brock was absent in

The Glorious Fourth.
ALAMEDA. CAL, March 11-There is
said to be movement to get up a county
celebration of the Fourth of July and hold
it in Alameda. This city offers uncommon
attractions for such celebration. Its
streets are unsurpassed for parades. It's
sidewalks are shady from bordering trees.
There is fine large room in the City Hall
in which to have the speaking, provided
it was not desired to have it in the
public park. Alameda some years ago
celebrated every anniversary OF the Fourth
with great earnestness and success.

Outfit.

OAKLAND, CAL, March 1.-THE rev.

time past that there has been an Illicit re-
finery of crude opium situated somewhere
in the vicinity OF Fruitvale. The arrests
of numerous Cinnamon by Deputy Sheriff
Ouinlan with unstamped opium III their
possession has only confirmed these sus-
i;icions. All efforts to locate the plant
however, has failed.

seen at Bay farm Island who evidently
were engaged in cooking opium ii was be-
eyed The plant had at last been located.

Attorney Garrity Will Have to Pay

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALI
9OS Broadway, March II. (
The Supreme Court has decided that
All Quay was wrong when he claimed
that Judge Wood had no authority to send
him to jail. The decision is the result of
habeas corpus brought by Attorney Chap
man on behalf of All Quay and Attorney
Tom Garrity.
The argument made was that the Oakland
Police Court was created under the Whit
nev act, and that this act was unconstitu-
tionaI: therefore Judge Wood had no
right to order any one 10 Jail. In the case
of Attorney Garrity the Judge had fined
him $25 or one days imprisonment for
contempt OF court. The case was appealed,
but it was not pressed till the case of the
Chinaman was decided.
This morning Attorney Chapman ap-
peared in the Police Court and announced
that he was ready to pay All Quays fine
He wanted his two weeks sojourn in Jail
while he was waiting for the Supreme
Courts decision to count as part of the
fine, but this was not allowed, so the full
fine of S1O0 was paid. When Garrity's s
case is taken up he will either have to pay
his fine or spend one day in prison.

HIS STATEMENT DENIED.
The Car Must Have Been Going More
Than Four Miles an Hour.

Than Four Miles an Hour.
The statement OF Motorman John Nc
Lean that the car when it killed the little
girls was only going four miles an hour is
disc. edited by many practical motormen.
In McLean's signed statement is the fol-
lowing paragraph: ut is our custom to
run about eight miles an hour. Going at
that speed | calculate that l can apply the
brakes and come TO a standstiIl in about
sixty fhet. Using the reverse current with
the braIes l can stop my car in half the
dlstanc4\ Ny time table gives me thirty
seven and a half minutes to make the
round "trip from Thirteenth and Franklin
streets to Seventh and Pine streets. Last
night on the s o'clock trip, when the acci-
dent occurred, we were running easy and
were on time. As we crossed Adeline
street we were running at half-speed, or
four miles an hour.
1t Is said by all experienced in such mat
ters that car going at only four miles an
hour could be stopped almost instantly by
reversing the current. Mclean says he
stopped within fifteen feet and vet one of
the girls was under the rear trucks, which
is bout tWenty-seyen feet from the front
OF the car when it was brought to a
standstill. These matters will be fully in
vestigated at the inquest tomorrow night.
