Tesla. William Wolf. the man with whom
she elOped two weeks ago. was weeping
three hours later in Judge Quinn's court
This is the beginning Of the end OF an
Emeryville romance.
William Wolf is sorry now that ne De

the Superior Court. Wolf said he had no
attorney and no means of hiring one, ana

IMPROVEMENT CLUBS
HAVE GONE ON RECORD

OAKLAND, Aug. 10.-At a meeting of
the North Oakland Improvement Club last
night a guarded reply to Councilman
Girard's communication on the municipal
ownership of water was adopted. The
reply is to the effect that while the club
some time ago unanimously passed reso-
1utions favoring municipal ownership, it
would not place itself on record as in
dorsing the purchasing of the Roberts
wells at San Leandro, or any other, until
such source shall have been proved be-
yond a reasonable doubt to be amply suf-
ficient to supply any required demands.
The Boulevard and PeraIta Heights I'm
in favor of the opening Of Sixteenth
street. The club is opposed to any change
in the plans for the dredging of Lake

Oakland Office San Francisco Call.


There will be no Oakland Exposition
this year. This step has not been formal
" announced by the directors, but the
fact is known that the annual show will
not take place.
The decision of the directors is largely
due to the failure of the exposition last
year. when il was placed under the man
agement of Count Charles de Garmo
Gray. Much prejudice was engendered
against the show and financially as we'll
as spectacularly it was a dire failure.
The exposition usually opens in the
middle OF August at the Tabernacle. AS
nothing has been done this year toward
the opening Secretary Craigie Sharp was
asked to-day what the corporation in
tended to do. There will not be any
show this August" said he. THE people

spirit of fun she answered this and
correspondence commenced, which con-
tinued until Wednesday, when the
groom arrived here and they were
united in marriage. The bride, who
was widow, was formerly "a school
teacher of Noble county, and highly
educated Mr.. Steadman is wealthy
wagon manufacturer and owner of one
of the largest cattle ranches in the
