Funeral of William T. Valentine.

ALAMEDA, Aug. 28.-The funeral of
William It. Valentine took place at the
Masonic Temple this afternoon and was
largely attended. The Exempt Firemen
turned out in body, as did the Masons.
while host of the friends of the de-
ceased, including many school children
who had been endeared to him by his
kindly manner, also attended. The SER
vices at the Temple were very brief, con-
sisting of the usual Masonic ritual, ac-
companied by the singing Of two hymns
by male quartet. The remains were es-
corted to Mountain View Cemetery by the
Firemen and Masons, where the remain
der of the Masonic ritual was performed
and the last honors paid to the deceased.
A Stray Balloon.
ALAMEDA, Aug. 2S.-About daybreak
yesterday morning two newspaper car
riers who were going about their duty
saw a large balloon pass rapidly over this
city, going in northwest direction. There
was quite breeze at the time and the
balloon moved quickly 1t was of a larger
size than those usually used by trapeze
performers and had basket attached to
It. No signs of life were visible in the
basket, however. and the balloon was at
too great height to be able to determine
whether there were any occupants 1t
appeared to be about 1900 feet In the air.
No stray balloons have been heard OF,
and there is considerable wonder as to
the origin Of this one,

AN ISSUE AT THE PRIMARY

Oakland ONCE, San Francisco Call,
SOS Broadway. Aug. Is.

sos Broadway, Aug. Is.
County Clerk Frank Jordan is preparing
another statement setting forth his views
of the alleged issuance of blank certih-
Gates OF registration for the Hilborn-Met-
calf primary. This question is one that
will not down. Every few hours it arises
and is the subject of discussion, and 1t
will no doubt have a marked effect one
way or the other on the county primaries
which are to be held September 18th.
Scores of these certificates are being
dug up Most of them contain signatures
and the seal Of the County Clerks office,
but are declared to be forgeries. The par
ticuiar one bearing the signature of Dep
uty Clerk James B. Dean is being dis
puted. Mr.. Dean declares II to be Tor
gerry; others believe it was signed by MI
Dean. tOne blank card containing the sig
nature of deputy was taken to Mr.. Jor-
dams office yesterday, and 1t is said tnat
he acknowledged the genuineness Of the
signature. But so far no reward has been
paid.
Several certificates. some bearing the
seal and some not, but all signed by dep
uty county clerks, are in the possession
of Frank A. Leach, and he says that there
are hundreds of them in existence. Just
what use may be made of them is not
known, but the Hilborn men are very
dissatisfied. and are making all kinds of
threats. 1t so happens that the great
Hilborn stronghold is the abode of Frank
Jordan, and it is predicted that the latter
will have the hardest kind of q fight to
carry the county primaries in his favor.
It is conceded that Frank Jordan de-
serves and will probably get all of the
support that can be controlled by Victor
Metcalf's friends and the followers of Or.
Pardee. because whatever he did If he did
anything, and whatever ne risked, If he
risked anything, was done in the interest
of these factions.
Frank Jordan declares that his next
statement, which will be issued in few
days. will completely exonerate him, but
exoneration in politics is debatable cap
ital, and does not always succeed in turn
ing the tide of voters at a primary.
Next Saturday the County Republican
Central Committee will meet to determine
the method in which the primaries shall
be called The State and Congressional
primaries were called by Assembly dis
tricts, but there is general desire to call
the county primaries by wards and
townships. Should the Assembly method
prevail 1t will upset nearly all the combi-
nations now being made, and which are
confined to wards or townships. There Is
still a little doubt as to which of the two
methods is favored by the county commit
tee. but 1t is generally believed that the
ward and township plans will find most
favor.

AN ORPHAN DROWNED
In A RESERVOIR
WAS ON A PICNIC AT WALTER
MoRoSCo'S RANCH.
David Sampson, an Inmate of the
West Oakland Home, Loses His
Life While Swimming.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.


908 Broadway, Aug. g.
The picnic of the children of the West
Oakland Home at Walter Morosco's Ger
anium place, last Saturday, was marred
by death.
When Miss Lide Gilmore, the matron
of the home, gathered the children for
the return trip in the afternoon, David
Sampson, a ffteen-year-old lad, was
missing. He had usually been favored
with greater freedom than the others on
account of his age, good behavior and
sense, so that no great attention was
given to his absence. It was thought
that he had gone to the home, but he
was not there when the party returned.
Mr. Morosco sent out searching parties
through the night, but found no trace Of
the boy.
This morning the search was continued,
when Simpsons clothes were found in
the brush near the reservoir on Thomas
McGee's place, not far from Fruitvale.
The boy, 1t developed, had gone In swim
ming in the reservoir and was drowned.
Late this afternoon the body was found.
The reservoir is a bowl-shaped affair and
the boy, who was not a swimmer, slipped
into deep water.
Coroner Baldwin was notified imme-
ciateIy and took charge of the remains.
The inquest will be held tomorrow even

1.-The Dawn of Freedom which comes To
the Grand next week. requires a very large
acting company, and as all the parts are good
and equally important, only people Of ability
and reputation have been engaged among
those secured by Paul Gilmore, who himself
plays the leading role, are Laura Alberta,
Ethel harrington, Elizabeth Woodson, J. H.
Cossar, Edwin Walters ]. B. Cooper, II.
Rees. Davies and Macy Harlan. The three
leading female roles in the drama are
PaQudta, Cuban girl; julia Rodiquez a
Cuban American, and Jane Fortune, a young
American newspaper correspondent. All three
Of these characters have the sympathy of the
audience. and in the hands of Miss Alberta,
stand out as types Of female lovliness. 1t is
seldom that one organization contains three
as pretty and charming actresses as these
three ladies'.

but the specialties will be different, and q
