Proposition to Construct an
Electric Road to North
Berkeley,
F, G. Ravens of the Realty Syndicate
at the Head of the New
Scheme.

BERKELEY, CAL, Aug. Sit is under
stool that F c. Ravens OF the Really
Syndicate will visit Berkeley in a few
days to look over the propo, ed routes for
street railway to the North End. Mr..
Ravens has been interviewed by embers
of the North Berkeley citizens commit
tee and It Is believed that the syndicate is
preparing % extend its system within a
short time to Bergman station. Nothing
of a definite nature has been given out,
so far as is known, by the president of
the syndicate, but he has admitted that
the desired extension was under consider
alton and that he would look over the
ground in a few days
Among the routes being discussed as
likely to be taken up is loop to include
the North End. with tracks on each side
OF Shsttuck avenue. The posed lines
would be along Oxford street on the east
and Melyla or Grove street on the west.
There has been more or less talk of hav-
ing 4 line to the North End for three
years, but nothing further than drawing
of routes has ever come OF the schem es.
1t would now seem, however, that a road
viii be something more than q day
dream.

Elmer E. Brown. head OF the department

In speaking of his work at the islands
Professor Brown said to-day:
"Ihe republic has an excellent schoo

An important meeting OF the lea ling
musicians of Alameda County will be
held tomorrow night in the parlors of the
Nile Club. The purpose of the gathering
is to organize a county musicians club,
for the purpose oil bringing out local
talent and for mutual benefit generally.
1t has long been deplored that there is a
those people to whom harmony should be
kind of second nature. The feeling has
not only been individually unpleasant,
but it has obstructed musical pro .ress.
A week ago an informal meeting was
held and the idea of a club found such
favor that it was decided to take decisive
action and try 10 unite under common
name and with common purpose the
hundreds of m usicians in this county.
Those who are taking an active part in
the matter are: Mrs. Alma Crowley, Pro-
lessor W. j. Mccoy, John w. Metculf, Di-
rector A. 7. Stewart, julius Oettl and ].
G. Walling. A thorough canvass OF the
musical fraternity will be made, and 1t is
believed that at least a hundred mem bers
will subscribe to the roll as soon as it is
opened.
The immediate purpose of the club will
be the mutual benefit of the mem bers,
and once month it is proposed TO give a
musical social. which should prove a very
accepta bic affair.
