osGooD A TRIPLE BIGAMIsT.
The Whisky Drummer Sentenced for
Petty Larceny Is in More
Serious Trouble

George L. Osgood. the whisky drummer,
who was sentenced by Judge Mogan
to six months in the County Jail for
petty larceny by trick and device" has
landed himself into more serious trouble.
Yesterday John C. A Macdonald, a sta
toner in Oakland, swore to a complaint
in Judge Mogans court for Osgood's ar
rest on the charge of bigamy. He alleges
that Osgood, while a married man, was
married in Stockton on February 10 last
TO Tilne Glover. his sister-in-law. He has
documents to prove his case.
Later Richard Bourne, a dealer in
leather findings on Second street. called
upon the Judge and wanted warrant
for Osgood's arrest upon a similar charge.
He lives at 2126 Bush street, and alleged
that Osgood married his daughter last
year while he had a wife living on Te-
hama street. His daughter was the di-
vorced wife of w. D. Wynne, After her
divorce she obtained employment with Os-
good as his stenographer. and married
him. When she learned of his previous
marriage she discontinued the use of his
name. The wife on Tehama street said
that she had ascertained that OsgoOd had
been married before he met her, and his
wife was living somew' ere in Texas.
Bourne was advised to get the Tehama-
street wife to come TO court with her
marriage certificate before the warrant
is issued

MONEY FOR SAN DIEGO.
The County Wins in It's Action
Against Riverside

The Supreme Court has passed upon the
case of the county of San Diego against
the county of Riverside and decided
against the latter. The action is similar

Gently decided. Riverside was created as
a county by the Legislature Of 1893 cut of
the territory of San BeTnardinO and San
Diego counties, ana the mutual claims
and obligations were soon after adjusted
by commission. Prior to the creation
of the new county there was owing from
the Southern Pacific Company to San
Diego County considerable sum OF
money for taxes delinquent for the years
1880 and 1887.
In 1894 the Board of Equalization made
reasseSsments of the railroads property
for 1880 and 1887, and that part of the
line, tracks, etc, in Riverside County
was awarded thereto. These reasSeSS

CHANGES IN STUDENTS
COOPERATIVE STORE
The University of California Will
Initiate Harvard's Way of Sell
iuc College Textbooks

BERKELEY. July 2S.-The students CO.
operative store of the University of Cali
fornia is to adopt a new policy for dis
posing of its books, commencing with the
opening Of the college term in August. The
plan IS that followed by the bookstore at
Harvard University and the Berkeley
students viii copy il in practically every
detail.
Its chief innovation is the doing away
entirely with the giving of discount, for
which purpose the students first started
the store Their scheme was inaugurated
some six years ago, with the intention of
purchasing college books at wholesale
prices from Eastern firms and retailing
them TO members of the store al d cost
lust sufficient to defray expenses. The
scheme worked very well until the an
nuai sales Of the store amounted to some
$50 900 when ii was found impossible to
keep track of the list of members, as out
siders also aVailed themselves of the
privileges, securing books a almost cost
price.
To stop this abuse the directors of the
store will copy the Harvard plan of con-
ducting their concern as a retail business,
deducting each year from the purchases
of each regular member the discount on
his own purchases to which membership
in the store entities him. 1t is expected
in this way to counteract the use to which
the store has been put by nOn-members
taking undue advantage OF its co-opera
tive plan.
