jurist of this City, will cut an important
figure IN the programme.
Every body knows that Judge Camp
bell, with the exception of his pate, which
is beginning to shine like q billiard ball,
resem bles the Santa Claus and the fame
of his countenance finally reached the
Oakland divine. Here was a chance to
secure an attraction out of the ordinary
run and Parson Davis jumped at it.
He called on Judge Campbell at his
courtroom a few days ego and asked the
jurist if he would consent to grace the oc-
casion of the First Church's annual holt
day festivities and dispense the gifts with
which the magnificent Christmas tree
would be loaded.
You would make a magnificent Santa
Claus he SAID, with an admlrlng glance
at the Judges beard, ''and we would be
more than pleased TO have you officiate
on that occasion. l am sure my congre-
CATION would appreciate your efforts"
But" objected the representative OF
the police bench, 81 have arranged to go
on a bicycle ride on that day, and may
return late and not be able to change my
clothes in time"
'Oh, that's all right" said the pastor.
"You can put on wig and wear your
boomers and appear as Santa Claus up TO

rather than be drawback. Come n your
bicycle clothes by all means"
"Ail right, III be there" said Judge
Campbell; land say, what's the matter
with riding up the aisle on my wheel2"
Rev. Mr.. Davis was not TO be outdone
by light of the bench so he agreed that
such a proceeding would be just the
thing.
So it was arranged that the Judge
should make up as Santa Claus ''up to
date" before entering the church and give
the assemblage q genuine sensation such
as the pastor loves.
Judge Campbell has a reputation as
cyclIst to sustain and it is expected that
his entree TO the First Christian Church
will be the event of the season.
'Oh I'm going to be Santa Claus all
right" said Judge Campbell yesterday.
land you can bet I'll do the job up brown.
This Oakland parson is all right and I'm
going to help him out all l can. Ii he
wants me 10 ride right up to the pulpit /
am going 20 do it.
II have gone through some narrow
places on my bike and guess church
isle won't bother me. They tell ME / look
like Santa Claus and the jurist palled
his beard with one hand, rubbed his face
with the other and started down town to
get wig to match his whiskers.

REMB0LD MUST ANSWER.
Cited by Judge Slack to Explain His
Acts in the Parsons
Estate,

Judge Slack has issued an order for At.
torney g. A. Rembold TO appear next
Tuesday morning and show how he be-
came possessed OF jewelry and other val
uables worth about $4,000 that until a
few days ago belonged to the estate Of
Mrs. Sarah NJ. Parsons.
The estate of The dead woman is esti-
mated to be worth 500, 900, the greater
part being in the State of Georgia. The
lady came to California a short time ago
proved beyond tie reach of medical aid
and she succum bed to the disease.
A few days before her death Mrs. Par
sons employed Attorney Rembold to draw
her will and at the same time delivered to
him the jewelry anc other personal prop
erty In her possession. He now says that
these things she conveyed TO him to pay
for services rendered
When inquiry was made in regard to
the will Mr.. Rem bold replied that be had
sent it to Georgia in order that ii might
be admitted TO prohte. In doing this il
is held that Mr.. 2embold acted in
ignorance or disregard of the law which
requires the custodian of such a will so
made in this State 10 lie the same in this
State within thirty daIs after the death of
the testator.
1t is possible that Mr.. RENT bold NAV
escape punishment Oh this account by
having the instrument returned from
Georgia in time to com ply with the law.
In that event he will hive no more serious
trouble to pace than u explain to DIR. II.
p. Mas and other berefciarles under the
will how he happens toown $4,000 worth
OF property formerly belonging to the
dead woman, his only service, so far as
they know, being the dawing of her will.

Mary v, the l5-year-old daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. John Bowling, of West Cherry
street. died this morning at 10 o'clock Of
heart disease, of which she had been suf.
ferer for the past nine years. On Sunday

ton church, and upon returning home she
took to bed From that time on she had
been sinking gradually until death relieved
her Of her suffering, She had partaken of
very little food and yesterday she was
stricken with blindness. Deceased was a
member of the second grade grammar school,

tions, which come on so suddenly and go
commonly prove fatal, put the baby without
delay on diet Of this splendid nutrimeut,
lactated food. 1t fully nourishes the child,
yet does not irritate the intestinal tract that
has been disturbed by hot weather, nor over
turn the sick stomach Weak, pining and
fretful babies are quieted by lactated food
They take it eagerly and gain steadily in
weight and size without interruption because
Of hot weather
Parents are apt to wait from day to day
hoping for improvement in the condition of
their child. 1t is this unwise delay that so
often costs the childs life.
At the first indication that baby is not
taking sufficient food for rapid growth, or
when the child shows signs of weakness, its
skin continually wet with perspintion, its
lips and cheeks pale and its eyes heavy, 1t is
imperative that the little one should be better
nourished. Lactated food at once improves
the appetite and makes sure that the child's
digestion is supplying strength and the means
for steady growth Babies grow big and
strong on lactated food. Close observation of
countless weaving babies, and of others not
thriving because they cannot be induced to
eat, or because their food does not nourish
them, led to the preparation of lactated food
The thousands of happy parents who write
TO the manufacturers of lactated food that
their babies thrive and keep well constantly
after beginning to take the food regularly
| these thousands are but a small number COM
pared with the many who recommend it per
sonally to their friends and neighbors. Mr.
Walter B. Hall, of Lowell, Mass sending
picture of himself, wife and child, says
pointedly; Our baby has always been fed
on actated food, and it has, always agreed
with him"
Practiced physicians prescribe lactated food
to be kept always on hand and used at once
on the first indication of looseness or loss Of
strength, or if baby is evidently not thriving
on its present diet. Lactated food is the
infant food physicians use in their own
families.

This morning a meeting of the public
school teachers was held in the High school
room to make final arrangements for the

uounced the following promotions in the

Miss Shields to Miss Lehes; and Miss Connors
to Mr.. Hooks
Superintendent Bogart then made an ad-
dress to the teachers on school work and
management, the duties Of teachers to pupils
and what the people have right to expect
of the teachers. He said he would expect
progress in every branch and where the work
did not meet with his expectations he would
hold only the teacher accountable. He also
stated that he would deem it his duty to at
times be Of assistance to the teachers and at
no time would he be too busy to give any
teacher what advice or suggestion that might
be required.
The teachers listened intently to the
remarks and it was evident that the teachers
and new superintendent would begin the new
term with pretty thorough understanding
of each other
