Baroness oe birscb.

The Baroness de Hirsch is about sixty-two years

German, and several other languages She devotes
herself to her chosen work of charity and philanthro

business man. She knows just what she wants to
do, and her ideas are clear and comprehensive She
also understands fully how to gather the inforrna
ton she wants, and very methodical in all that she
does.
The charity for the aid Of working women which
she has just begun here entirely the result of her
own seeking, and is designed, in part to strengthen
the great charities of her late husband in this and
other parts of the world This is only one of the
baroness munihcent charities She has probably
given more money to charity than any other woman
in modern times, in the history of the world for
that matter.

pension fund for the benefit of the employees of the
railroads in which her late husband was interested

his fourth term as City Auditor, and such
is his certainty of being returned again

first and has been the only City Auditor
Oakland has had.
City Treasurer-Z. T. Gilpin has been
City Treasurer for several years, and like
Auditor Snow he practically is without
opposition in this campaign. He is busi-
ness man rather than a politician and is
respected as such. He makes no speeches,
but attends to business in such fashion as
to enlist the confidence of the electors of
all parties. The Democrats have made no
nomination for this office.

Councilman at Large-H. d. Talbot is
an attorney. He presided over the last

abilities. He is an old veteran and q
prominent mem ber of the G. A. R.
Councilman at Large-B. G. Cuvellier
lives in West Oakland, and it is to his
energy and perseverance that that part of
the city owes its park. He labored as
siduously for the improvement and the

thing of the past. He has always been
identified with progressive interests in the
city.

turned her face away and brushed the
tears out of her eyes. while the others IN
the room looked at each other and at the
four walls of the study. waiting for the
shower TO blow ever.
The bride wore becoming suit of white
duck. with sailor hat and white veil. The
bridesmaid wore a pale green walking
