test TO be given under the auspices OF the

was the first to appear. While waiting for
Lavgne O'Rourk- entertained the crowd
by descanting on the colored boys iazi-
ness.
He don't know" said the manager,
"that l am gong to sign him, and he
cares less. He would have to work mighty
hard to weigh in at o clock on the night
of the fight at 135 pounds. He could get
down to 1873 pounds in the East with less
effort than he can make 135 here. But
he'll have to do it, and that's ali there is
about it,"
Shortly after o'clock Lavigne, accom-.
panied by his brother Billy and a local
politician, came in and the articles were
submitted to them. They met their ap-
proval and were signed.
They call for a twentyround contes
between the whirlwind lighters for 70 per
cent of the gross receipts, the fight to be
held in the Pavilion at time to be speci-
fed by the club, in the latter part of Oc-
tober or early in November. The articles
continuing read:
Eighty per cent to the winner of the said 75

The articles were signed by Billy Lavigne
for George Lavigne; Thomas f. O Rourke

Large Crowds Attend Nightly
and Help Swell the Build
ing Fund.
Company 4 Gives Pretty Exhibition
in Drilling = Attractive Pro-
gramme for Next Week

The building fund of st. Charles Church
has been materially increased by the sue
cessful fair which is being held at the Mis-
sion Turn Verein Hall.
Attractive booths and beautiful girls
have been the means of drawing large
crowds of both sexes to the hall every
evening. Handsome bric-a- brac and costly
Iaces greet the ladies as they enter the
prettily decorated hall, while the men are
tenn pied with various harmless games OF
chance and other amusements. and when
asked 10 participate by pretty maiden
they find it impossible to refuse.
In connection with the fair an entertain
ment is presented every evening, ending
with a hop. Company II, League of the
Cross Cadets, in command of Captain
Power, visited the fair last evening and
gave an exhibition in drilling. The pre-
cision with which the young men obey ed
the various commands received merited
applause
Lieutenant Stanley Riley leads In the
contest for the most popular officer in the
League OF the Cross, but is closely fol-
lowed by Lieutenant j. K. Duffey Cap
tain James Curley, Lieuteant T. A.
Hooper, Lieutenant Edward Fay, Captain
Power and Captain brady.
A handsomely EN- broidered preaching
stole has been offered for the most popu-
lar priest. In this contest Father Glea-
son OF st. Roses leads with a vote of 319.
Father Cummings is second with a vote
of 265 and the Holy Cross parish is third
with a vote of 107
The programme arranged for next week

duce many friends of the church to a..
tend.
On Monday evening there will be a COM
petitive drill in which the Mission COM
panies OF the League Of the Cross will
participate. The winning company will
be awarded beautiful gold medal. On
the same evening t. mem bers OF the A.

A Deputy Sheriff Arrested
and Charged With
Vagrancy.
A Star caring Watchman
Is Also Brought to
Court.
Town Marshal Lloyd Has Lot Of
Trouble Waiting for
Him.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL. |
Q0S RroadWa Sent 10. (

908 Broadway, Sept. 10.
Two prisoners wearing police stars were
in The dock IN Justice Cliffs court TO-DAY.
One was Deputy Sheriff Brown, who was
charged with vagrancy, and the other
Watchman Brandes, with resisting an Of
hcer.
Both men were arrested by Marshal Lloyd
OF B Berkeley last night, and he ke pit the m
till to-day in the Berkeley jail They
were the first occupants the jail has had
for many months, and one of them,
Brown. had key with which ne might
have le. himself out. But he did not
choose TO do so, for he declares that Town
Marshal Lloyd shall yet pay heavily for
locking him up.
When Brown stood up before Judge Cliff
to plead to vag rancy he exhi bited his Dep
uty Sheriff's star and $1,000 bond which
he secured before appointment as evidence
that he was not vagrant.
Brandes is a duly appointed special
watchman and also wears star. He told
the Judge that it would be easy for him 10
prove that he did not ettempt to interfere
with Marshal Lloyd in the execution OF
his du y, rs he is one OF tie most law
abiding citizens of Berkeley.
Now there is serious trouble on all
sides. Bot men declare that their ARE st
is spite work and that Marshal Lloyd did
not exactly know what he was doing when
be made the arrests.
"Before arresting me-" said Brown.
'Llcyd met me and threatened to take
such action. Then he followed me and
told me | was under arrest as a vagrant." "
Mr.. Brandes is full OF anger and says
that after arrest ley were illegally treated.
Alter arrest" said Brandes, 1--WE de-
manded that Lloyd comply with the law
and take US 10 the nearest Justice SO that
we might offer bail. Lloyd wond not
listen to US, but instead put US in jail and
would not liberate US, alth ough we offered
to hire buggy and drive to Justice Gift,
in Oakland"
AS Berkeley has no justices now, every
body who is arrested is al the mercy OF
the Marshal and it is doubtful if he can
be compelled TO take prisoners 10 Oakland
from Berkeley.
Lloyd says he will have no difficulty in
proving that Brown is a vagrant and that
Brandes attempted 20 interfere with him
in the performance of his duty.
Tie case is one of great interest, as all
manner OF points OF law and iurisd iction
are involved. Justice Gilt released the
two men without bail till tomorrow morn
ing.

BOTH CLARAS ARE CHUMS
The Female Burglar Tenderly
Nurses the Girl Man-Killer
to Health.
Mrs. Mcclellan Still Declines to Name
the Man Who Is the Mystery
in Her Case
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, |
COS BroadWaY Sent 10

COS Broadway. Sept. 10.
Mrs Clara Mcclellan, the female burg
lar, now awaiting sentence in the County
Jail, has become warm friend to Miss
Clara Fallmer, the girl m murderer, and has
been permi ted to become the latter 5
nurse.
1t was at Mrs. McLe lan's own request
that she was allowed to share the cell with
her as devotedy as though she were her
mother. There is little fear of the girl
not recovering now, and the doctors de.
clare that she will soon be well enough to
attract the attention of the District Attor-
ney. A certain portion OF the favorable
pr gress made by the girl is due the at
tention of Mrs. Mcclellan, whose friend
ship is thus the means of speeding the
time when the slayer of Charles Ladue
shall be tried for murder.
Mrs. Mcclellan has strong hopes that
she will be granted new trial. There is
undoubtedly much evidence that did not
come out at her recent trial, though il is
not known why. The woman's stories
show plainly that she is between two fires.
She has admitted her friendship for Man
uel Siivelra, who she declares is RESPONSE
bic for her present plight, but she Will not
go further and tell of facts that would
save her from the charge of being bur-
glar, because it might reveal other circum-
stances she is anxious to hide. There is a
strong opinion among the officials who
are lam liar with the case that neither
Joe Henas nor the mythical Silve ira
should be connected with the case, out a
man hitherto unmentioped, whose name
Mrs. Mcclellan viii not divulge.
