There is one member Of this family
known to all who ever visit river or shore.
Running from rock to rock i'll its bob
bling, fitting style, or flying swiftly over
the water, uttering its shrill peet-weet, it
is one OF our most familiar birds. The
spotted sandpiper is seven inches long,
head and neck slender; bronze olive
above with cross bars of black; under
parts white, finely spotted with black.
The eggs are four in number, buff, creamy
or clay color, spotted and blotched with
blackish- brown. The nest is on the
ground, under the shelter of clump of
grass or weeds, and lined with dead grass.
The willet is more fond of the water
than most shore birds, frequently wading
in to its brest or taking plunge bath as

ACRID SECTION AL STRIFE
Residents of South Berkeley
Fighting Over a Railroad
Station.
Two Petitions For and Against It's
Removal Sent to the Southern
Pacific Company.

BERKELEY, CAL, July 10.-The two
petit ons for and against the removal OF
Ashby station 20 Russell street,
which have been III circulation for the
past two weeks, have been forwarded to
the Southern Pacific Company. The one
asking for the removal bears 220 sigma
lures while the other has 109 appended to
ii. In the event of rem moval The petitioners
pledge themselves TO the erection of a
$500 depot on the new site at Russell
street.
Itis urged that Ashby-avenue station
is near a swamp and is an undeslra Bile
place TO land passengers. and, further
more, that the grade at that point makes
it difficult 10 start the trans alter they
have stopped.
The circulation of the petitions has
given rise to no little strife among the
opposing factions at the South End. The
original petitioners are very hopeful t at
the change they have requested Will be
made ami speedily. While the change
will benefit the people along Russell street
it Will doubtless, on the other Eand, cause
a material depreciation in the valuation n
of real estate in the region of Ashby ave-
nue.

SCANDAL HEAD
UP ONCE MORE
Warrant Issued for Ma
honey, Charged With
False Registration.
Another Phase of the Feud Be-
tween Warden Murdock and
Boss Rohan.
The Fire Department Once Again Has
Become HOtbed for Petty
Politics. .....
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL,

OAhLAND OFFICE GAN = FRANCISCO GALL,
9Oo Broadway, July 10.
The fire department imbrogllo has
broken out afresh, and each day brings
forth a new scandal. This afternoon a
warrantwas sworn out for William ?. Ma
honey on a felony charge. 1t is alleged
that he falsely registered last August just
before the Huborn primary,
This action is the direct outcome of the
row between Fred Murdoch, fire warden,
and Jack Rohan. welLknown politician
OF the Sixth Ward.
There are at present two warrants before
the Board of Public Works for work done
with street sprinklers. The warrants are
held by two men named Cannon and Ma
honey, and Attorney O. 'Brien, who is Muir
dock legal adviser, has protested against
their payment on The ground that neither
OF the men Is legal resident OF this city.
1t IS stated that the two men drive
sprinkler owned in reality by Rohan. and
that the opposition of Attorney O'Brien
against Cannon and Mahoney is only an
other phase of the hatred between Rohan
and Murdoch, and this is probably true.
O'Brien has been looking up Mahoney's
record and finds that he was admitted to
ST. Vinceni's Orphan Asylum in San
Rafael in 1885, ard that he was then nine
years OF age. That would make him Is at
this time and not much more than II
when it is alleged ne registered falsely.
The affidavit OF glstratlon cannot be
found, but he registered as living at
Rohan' S house. At that time Rohan was
volunteer deputy clerk for registration
purposes, thousn 1t is not known whether
Mahoney was reg, stored by Roman or not.
Frank Barnett :ested against the Is
suance OF the warrants and SAID that Ma
hOney's brother is prepared to prove Ma
honey is 81 years of age. Cannon has
also applied for rOliceman's position,
and while registered in Oakland be is
supposed to be living in San Francisco
All these pretty stories and thlse that
have preceded them are the result of The

ment out OF politics. Prior 10 the last city
election the department was used TO try
10 secure the election of ex-City Engineer
Wilson and City Attorney Dow.
Whi2 il may have helped Mr.. Dow, 1t
certainly tended to the defeat of Wilson,
and from the night that the cards bearing
lated at the fire. houses the department
has been a hotbed of political unrest.
Fair was the candidate of The Nou-Par-
tisans and so was Murdock, and as the
Non-Partisan element 10 a large extent

regular Republicans consider they are en-
