Interesting Important Points Alameda County,

AT times he is perfectly rational and there
is nothing that would lead to the opinion
that he is insane. During these periods re
converses clearly, connectedly and ration
ally, but he suddenly reiapses into vacuity
and makes incoherent rambling state
ments.
DR.. Green is man of high education and
in his calmer moments refers to a dead
wife and a daughter IA years OF age. He
says he graduated at Anaheim and de-
clarcs he is related TO the Studebakers. 1t
is thought that there must be some search
being prosecuted for him, as it is not con-
sidered possible that man of his stand
ing could have dropped out OF sight with
out being missed
During his examination he makes sew
eral statements that show his mania of a
religious nature. He declares he is the
| Christ, and informed Judge Greene that
some one had taken his Bible away and
made it into cigarette papers. At point
where his conversation seemed to be per-
fectly sane and he was explaining to the
Judge where he received his education, he
surprised ybody by suddenly recogniZ-
ing a man named Waters in the court
room and declaring he was President Cleve-
land. Judge Greene asked when he last
saw the President, and Green replied tnat
Waters looked much younger than when
he called on Grover. Although Green is
much improved since he was arrested a
week ago, he was declared to be insane and
was committed TO AgnewS.
| E. P. Stedman, who has resided in this
City for over ten years, was taken from his
residence yesterday on complaint OF his
daughter, Miss Birdie otedman, who said
/ her father was acting queerly and his
family could not control him. He is a
relative of General Stedman. who figured
prominently in the Civil War, and is a
brother of the late Mrs. Barnum of w. C..
! T. U. fame.
Stedman was examined this afternoon
and it was very evident that he was
insane. He Will be sent to Agnews with
DR.. Green.

PETITION FOR THE BONDS.
Berkeley's Trustees Will Call
Two Special Elections
Tonight.
Subscriptions for Lighting the College
Grounds-Canvassing County
Division.

BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. 2.-The petit
ton asking the Town Trustees to call
special elections for the issuance of school
and wharf bonds is now in circulation in
East Berkeley. 1t is in charge of J. L..
Scotchler and the required 800 signatures
have nearly all been secured. The petl-
ton will be presented to the Trustees at
Friday nights meeting, when it is ex-
pected that an ordinance already pre-
pared will be passed calling the elections,
the date for which will be about the
middle of February.
Other matters to be considered by the
Trustees are the application of John
Casey for a saloon license and the ques-
ton of Deputy Marshal Rawson's eligi-
bility to hold office in Berkeley.
Casey's application for license has
aroused good deal of opposition, and it
is thought likely that he will be refused
permission to conduct a saloon. He has a
record that will initiate against him, he
having been convicted and sentenced some
time ago for selling intoxicants within the
mile limit.
The Lights Fund.
BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. 2.-1ne SUBJ
scriptions to the fund for the lighting OF
the university grounds now amount to
9Ol0, PRESIDENT hellOSS or the state Uni
versity having Contri buted $50 and Pro-
lessor Rising So. T. NJ. Wilson's subscrip-
tion of $500 is conditional upon another
$500 being subscribed by other citizens,
the estimated cost of placing poles and
wires on the college grounds being $1,000.
Dumet Benefit.
BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. "A benefit
will be given in South Berkeley Hall Sat
urday evening for the widow of the late
Felix Dumet. An elaborate programme

FIGURES THAT TELL TALES
Alameda County's Business for
the Year Compiled by
the Clerk.
A Great Desire Shown to Marry, but
Not Such Desire to Be
Divorced.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL, !

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL
90S Broadway, Jan. ..
County Clerk Jordan completed his tab
ulation of last years business to-day, and
it presents many interesting features. The
Clerk now keeps a complete set of books,
similar to those OF a business house, and
every branch Of the county governments
expense can be seen at a glance. This is
the first time such a system has been
adopted in Alameda County, and people
interested in economy have already dis
covered where there were many hitherto
unknown leaks.
During 1895 the number of marriage
licenses issued was 1180, and to offset this
only Sc divorces were granted. Just twice
that number applied for legal separation,
but one-half are either impending or have
been denied. Damage suits to the mum Der
of 153 have been commenced, and in this
connection it might be noted that the
judgments have been higher in cases
against railroads for death Or in Jury than
was ever known before.
Eighty-two people have applied to be
declared insolvent and sixty-nine attach
ments have been issued. The most rush
ing department of the civil courts has been
IN the foreclosure of liens and mortgages,
3l9 mortgages and 16l liens having been
foreclosed during the year. Forty-one
cases of quieting title have been decided
Appeals have been taken in ffty-nine
cases.
The most remarkable comparison that
appears from the statistics is the relation
of the number of convictions in criminal
cases to the number OF commitments of
insane persons 10 asylums. Thirty-six
people have been convicted of crime and
seventy convicted of insanity. During the
year 167 persons have signified their inten-
tion of becoming citizens and seventy two
have been naturalized. Owing to the edu-
cational clause many people have been re-
fused registration. Eight children have
been legally adopted, two of whom were
found on doorsteps.

HISTORY OF A DAY.
Alameda County Happenings Told in
Brief Chapters.


OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL,
908 Broadway, Jan. 2. !
British sailors won an association football
game yesterday from a picked oakland team.
Discussion has been reawakened over pro-
posed cycling track in Alameda and an athletic
park in Oakland.
Willie Dannaker, who ran away from Whit
tier because he could not get cigarettes, was re-
captured by the Oakland police.
The Southern Pacific Company has issued or
ders that charges be made for carrying bicycles
outside of radius OF fifty miles from San
Francisco.
The New Years imbibers who were in the
dock OF the Police Court this morning did not
get off without paying the penalty, although
they thought they would.
Last September Judge Ellsworth committed
Mrs. Ida Levy, well known here, to the insane
asylum at Agnews. News has just reached
here of the wOman's death in that institution.
c. B. White has filed his report and petit
ton for discharge as assignee of B. w. Hig-
gins. an insolyent debtor. He has received
$62 35 and disbursed $40 90 in fees leaving
$21 40 TO be divided between two creditors
who have claims amounting TO $205 80.
Two transfers of wine were recorded to-day
at County Recorder Spears Office. They were
both made TO the California Winemakers' Cor
poration. The first was that OF ?. de Vaux of
Mission San Jose, who transferred %, 900 gal
Ions. The second was from the Valley View
vineyard, owned by Wallace Everson and
leased by A. A. Fargo. This amounted to q, 100
gallons

LATE SPORTING NEWS.
Olympic Boxing Night-Expenses Are
Cutting Into Mrs. Dempsey's Coin.

Olympic Boxing Night-Expenses Are
Cutting Into Mrs. Dempsey's Coin.
1t is rumored that after the expenses
shall have been deducted from the money
accruing from benefit recently rendered
the wife and children of the late Jack
Dempsey, there will remain something
like $500 to be given the widow.
Treasurer Gilleran said yesterday that it
would be some days before a full state
ment could be given, as there were MANY
people who had taken tickets who were
not yet heard from.
Gilleran did not seem at all pleased with
how some of Dempsey's alleged friends
had acted in the way of assisting the
widow.
There are those" said Gilleran, "who
previous to the benefit were seemingly un-
firing in their efforts to make the affair a
success, and who were actually the first
people to present exorbitanJ bills after the
show was over; but their names shall be
published and full particulars given when
everything is settled"
According to the New York Recorder
the Maher and Fitzsimmons fight will
take place February IA. 1t is safe to say,
however that the Recorder will find itself
mistaken on the day. Neither of the pugi-
lists mentioned has the least intention of
fighting, but they thoroughly understand
and appreciate the fact that the only sure
way Of getting cheap advertising in East
ern papers is by hoodwinking the sporting
fraternity and the sporting writers who
seem to believe the statements of those
pugs who live and make money through
being we'll advertised.
If the papers would cease to notice those
alleged champions some lighting and less
talking would be done.
The Olympic Club will give boxing en-
tertainments quite frequently in the fu-
ture. The next evening OF fstic sport will
be on the 9th inst, and some good sport is
sure to be the result, as the boxers Sc
lected for this special night are considered
first-cass. Smith and Sullivan and Ray
Bates are now in training, and they ex-
pect to he in excellent trim when the time
arrives for partaking OF tistic punches.
Leader Short may possibly add another
brace of boxers to the list, as two three
round bouts will be of very short duration.
and it is doubtful if large gathering will
be present to see half-finished fsticuffs.
The Olympic boys are preparing already
for the grand vaudeville and athletic en-
tertalnment on the Goth inst, which will
be held at the Columbia Theater. This
will mark the thirty anniversary of
the club.
