TO CEMENT A RESERVOIR
Result of Health Officer Rowell's
Analysis of Berkeley
Water.
Trustees Advised to Have Constructed
Cement Bottom for the
Bergman Tank.

BERKELEY, CAL, July 19.-Dr. II. n.
Rowell, Health officer of Berkeley, has
{ Just completed an analysis OF the water
supply Of the town, made at the instance
of several complainers who declared that
there was an Objectionable odor about the
water.
Dr. Rowell, with Sanitary Inspector
Frank Thompson, visited the Alameda
Water Company's reservoir and secured
for chemical examination samples of the
water furnished to the town.
"I find that there is some vegetable mat
ter in the water though not much, said
DR.. Rowell to-day. There is nothing
dangerously harmful in the fluid, but the
vegetable matter IS not desirable and steps
should be taken TO remedy this one defect
in so far as is possible.
II shall recommend that the Alameda
Water Company be compelled to provide
a cement bottom for It's reservoirs, or else
10 cover them over. Either one of these
two courses will do away with the evil that
has been complained Of.
The reservoir which it is proposed to
have provided with a cement bottom Is the
lowest OF the company's three reservoirs,
known as the Bergman reservoir. 1t has
a capacity of about 25,000,0 gallons.
rough estimate of the cost OF constructing
the cement bottom places the expense at
about $4,000.
> If the Board of Town Trustees should
adopt the recommendation of DR.. Rowell
and order the Alameda Water Company
to cement the bottom of It's reservoir the
company would be compelled under the
law to give heed to the order, the improve
ment being one which it is in the power
of the Trustees 10 order as a sanitary
measure.
The nearest time at which the cement
ing is likely to be done is next winter,
when the reservoir can be emptied with
assurance CT an immediate supply of
water to refill it,

VISITED BY A JURY.
Shown the Device by Lottery Dealers
TO Prevent Being Seen by
Plavers,

OAKLAND, CAL, June 19.-The sight
of Jury, with the court and all of its Off
ciaIs, visiting a Chinese lottery joint, is
novel and attracted much attention when
they filed into "Big Jlm's" place on
Eighth street, near Washington. Captain
Wilson was in charge, assisted by Bailiff
Mitchell.
One of the witnesses for the prosecution
swore that he looked through door and
saw the deten dant behind a partition, built
specially to conceal him from view. This,
said the defen dant's attorney, was an i'm
possibility, and iH order that the jury
might see the condition of things, Judge
W ood decided that the jurors might see
for themselves the condition of the prem
ises. The jury inspected the blind parti-
tion and room in the rear carefully. Slips
had been cut through the partition to per-
nit of the passing of the tickets out to
purchasers. The shelves on each side had
been inclined at a slight angle so that Il
person could not look through the Sits
and see anybody. At the door, through
which the witnesses referred TO, it was
seen that screen two feet wide had been
put MP to prevent persons on the outside
catching a glimpse of the dealer inside.

WICKHAM MAY ESCAPE.
Fatal Error of a Careless Clerk in til

Fatal Error of Careless Clerk in the
District Attorneys Office.
OAKLAND, CAL, June 19.-Edward
Wickham, now in the County Jail under a
fifteen years sentence for grand larceny,
may escape punishment altogether by the
carelessness of the District Attorneys
Office.
Wickham was one of the railroad strik-
ers in 1894 and being unable to get any
thing To do, he hired horse and buggy
and left for parts unknown. AT Bakers
field he disposed of the rig for $40, but was
subsequently caught and brought back to
this city for trial.
When the case came to trial his attorney
made no defense, but claimed that the in
formation against defendant had not been
filed with the County Clerk by the District
Attorney within the time specified by law,
and asked for an acquittal. The District
Attorney admitted at the time that the
failure 10 file the inform alton was due to
the carelessness of a clerk, and the court
overruled the motion to dismiss, and now
the Supreme Court has reversed the lower
court and orders the prosecution dis
missed, unless good cause is shown for
failure to file the information.

WHY WOMEN MUST WORK
Alameda Suffrage Association
Finds Monopolies Are
Responsible.
First Shoot of the Reliance Gun Cub.
Challenge Accepted by Encinal
Yachtsmen.

ALAMEDA, CAL, June 19-The Ala
media auxiliary of the Woman Suffrage
Association held its usual meeting this
afternoon in G. A. R. Hall. The question
discussed was, "Why Are So Many
Women in Business Occupations?" The
answer given was, because monopolies and
corporations controlled the business arena
of the Union, forcing men to accept wages
that would not support the family This
compelled women to leave the home and
earn a living to make existence possible.
Mrs. Morris sang "The Brook" charm
ingly before the discussion began.

M'KENZIE Is MISSING.
An Insurance Broker Said to Have Quit
His Quarters on California
Street.

Such of the public as has Lad dealings
with c. J. Mckenzie OF the firm of Enright
& Mckenzie at 800 California street are a
little uneasy at the disappearance of Nc
Kenzie, who, it is rumored, has left the
City on an extensive trip, probably in pur-
suit of Dunham, who is supposed to have
gone to Mexico.
Be this as it may the partner of Enright
did not warm his office chair yesterday
morning. nor did he, so far as could be
ascertained, leave his card announcing
when he would return.
This firm of insurance brokers had an
Office in the Lancashire Insurance Com
pany's quarters, of which Mann & Wilson
are the Pacific Coast managers. But they
were not attaches of the company, and
consequently did no business for that con-
Germ other than the placing of such poll
cies as they saw fit 10 give to Mann & Will
son for the company which they repre-
sented.
If McKenzie's accounts should be wrong
the loss would fall on his partner Enright
and the policy-holders who paid him
money for the purpose OF placing their
policies.
Mckenzie was at one time the trusted
friend of Hugh Craig of the New Zealand
Insurance Compa ny, but as Is said by
some, this friendship ceased some time
ago, when Craig placed his friend in q
position OF trust and responsibility in
Denver.
The return of Mckenzie to his office
would set the tongue of street gossip at
peace and restore him to the confidence of
his friends.

Grapes, sweet. ripe and fully matured in
