A CHEEKY BURGLAR.
Steals Valuable Jewelry While the
Owner Is Within Hearing.

OAKLAND. June 1O.-A daring burglar
made rich haul at the residence of Mrs.
j. Andrade, Si4 Madison street, shortly be-
fore o'clock tonight, securing several
gold watches, diamond rings and about
500 worth of other jewelry.
Mrs. Andrade was calling on neighbors
at the time, and while her daughter was
entertaining a young man named Harry
Mason in the parlor, the burglar re-
moved screen from a rear window,
which he pried open and gained an en-
trance. A slight noise attracted Miss An
drade's attention shortly afterward, and
she called to her mother, believing that
the latter had returned. Receiving no re-
spcnse, she went to her, mothers bedroom
and found the door locked. Becoming g
alarmed, she tried otner doors and found
them locked. Hurrying back to the par
lor, she apprised her caller of her sus-
picions. Mr. Mason then started on tour
of investigation to The side of the house,
and just as he passed around the corner
CT the building from the rear he saw a
man jump from Mrs. Andrade's bedroom
window. Divining the situation, Mason
fired one shot at the. fleeing burglar, and
he believes he hit him, though the in
truder made good his escape

SAN JOSE SEEKERS
OF OFFICE ACTIVE
Major Martin to Make Numerous
Appointments on the First
of J1Ilu

SAN JOSE, June 10.-Between now and
July local politicians will be the busiest
men in the Garden City, advancing the
interests of their favorites for the sew
eral vacancies that shall occur in the diff
ferent city commissions. At that time two
terms expire in the Board of Education
and one each in the Police Commission,
Park Commission and the Library Trus-
tees. All these are to be filled by Mayor
Martin. Daily his office is thronged by
candidates and their political influences"
but these are likely to be disappointed.
The Mayor, who is a conservative and
nOn-committal man, receives all with a
gracious smile, but says nothing. This
is puzzlng to the workers, for Mayor
Martin has already demonstrated that no
one knows his selections until the ap-
pointments have been made.
In the Police Commission Ernest Lion,
who was appointed about ten days ago
to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton of T. F. Morrison will surely be re-
appointed. In the School Board the terms
of Robert J. Langford (now Sheriff. and
Charles Sc Kenyon expire. Theodore Len
zen drew the short term in the Library
Commission. Kenyon will undoubtedly be
reappointed School Trustee, but a sue
cessor to Langford will be named Who
will succeed him is not known. Friends
of Darby and LenZen assert these two VIII
be retained in the Park Commission and
Library Trustees respectively

Mrs. Redding heard groans that started
her. and, gaining no response to several

strength and pushed he door open, when
she found that Miss Cooper had been
leaning against the door, and when II
opened the dressmaker fell to the moor ID
a pool of blood that was rushing from d4
ugly cash in her throat; ID
When asked by Mrs. Redding what hao NAG
happened the dying woman remarked:

Drs. johnson, Ackerly and Stout were
promptly summoned and the woman $
gaping wound was bandaged so that She
could be removed to the Receiving Hos

endeavor to keep her alive ana stauhch

A careful examination of the wound
showed that three slashes had been made
on the left side of the neck, extending
from under the ear to the median line OF
the throat severing the left jugular vein
and sterno-mastoid muscle.

About five months ago Miss cooper
came to Oakland from Riverside, where
she had resided for nearly thirteen years.
Here she bought the dressmaktng bust

Patronage, however, decreased until Miss
Cooper became despondent and out or
fuEds. OF late the few visitors to her par
lCrs have noted that her mind was giving
way. Yesterday when Miss Lizzie Red
ding called and brought her a bouquet of
flowers in the hope of cheering her spirits
Miss Cooper dropped the flowers on the
floor. remarking that she was not worthy
of the gift. She made other remarks that
led Miss Redding TO believe that the
dressmaker's mind was breaking down.
and so she informed her mother, who had
called this morning TO console her.
her she imagined that she must be
sinful woman, and after writing the notes
mentioned she cut her throat TO end her
troubles. Those who knew her speak in
praise of her character as good Chris
tian woman.
Miss Coopers condition at midnight is
still critical and it is not believed that
she will live till morning.

THEIR MARRIAGE DOUBTFUL.

charged Soldier.

OAKLAND, June 10. - Andrew S.
Jacques, who claims to be a discharged
soldier, is being detained on a charge of
vagrancy at the City Prison, while the de-
tectives are investigating a more serious
charge to which he may have to answer.
Gussie Olsen, aged II years. tells sad
story of deception. She states that
Jacques took her to San Francisco three
weeks ago and married her, but she does
not know who officiated or whether the
ceremony was legal Now Jacques denies
the marriage, and to-day when the girl
and her aged mother called at the prison
he did not care to see them
Miss Olsen knows that we were not
married" said Jacques afterward, ''and
we only told that story TO deceive her
mother who knew that we were living
together. I came here from Porto Rico,
and was honorably discharged with the
rank of first sergeant L did not deceive
the girl, who was anxious to live with
me-
The Olsens do not seem inclined to
prosecute Jacques, but Louis Brock has
sworn to a complaint charging the i'm
prisoned soldier with forging his name
to an order for room rent.

ROASTED THE WARDEN.
supervisor Wells Private Sentiments
on Keating Publicly Expressed

OAKLAND, June 10.-The investigation
into the alleged scandalous conduct of
William J. Heating, warden of the insane
at the Receiving Hospital, was continued
to-day until the return of Supervisors
Talcott and Mitchell from their vacation.
The Supervisors laid the matter over at
the request of Keating's attorney, Emil
Nusbaumer, yet the three members pres
ent expressed their readiness to remove
Heating without further hearing.
Supervisor Wells went so far as to re-
fer to the warden as unworthy of his
position and a disgrace to the county,
The remarks were addressed to Heating
in open board, but the private senti-
ments thus publicly expressed did not
ruffle the wardens spirits poticeably.
Supervisor Roeth coincided, but did not
wish to take snap Judgment on keating' s
removal during the absence of Supervisor
Mitchell who appointed the warden now
under investigation; and Mr.. Church felt
likewise. There is not much doubt; how
ever, that Warden Heating will lose his
office.
