BEGIN WORK
ON NEW ROAD
Contractors Move Big Appa-
ratuS to Grade Boulevard
Across Adams Point
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
ing

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1016 Broadway, July 81.
The Webster Street and Park Elec-
trio Railroad is a certainty. Work will
begin this week on the grading across
Adams Point for the boulevard through
which the line will be built Early this
morning the Z. B.. & A: l.. Stone Com
pany, the contractors, began to move
sixty-five-ton steam shovel and equip
ment over temporary tracks from the
steam railroad terminus at Thirteenth
and Webster streets. The outfit will be
taken to the Adams property under its
own steam.
Plans for the new electric road show
that it will run along the fine boulevard
that will cut the Adams holdings north
Of Lake Merritt in half. The drive will
begin at Boulevard terrace on the west,
running short distance northeast and
then straight across the rolling land to
point where Pleasant Valley avenue
touches the eastern boundary of the
Adams property. The boulevard will
be ITO feet wide. This will allow ample
room on each side of the double stand
ard gauge tracks that will occupy the
center of the thoroughfare. The boule-
ward will be constructed on the modern
lines of street making.
When ii is completed the new drive
will form a connecting link between
the west side of Lake Merritt and
Pleasant Valley. 1t will also reach
within easy distance of the proposed
park site on the Sather tract, which
runs along the eastern line of Pleasant
Valley road.
The new electric line will terminate
at the east side for the present at the
Pleasant Valley road. If the bonds are
voted for the purchase of the Sather
tract it is proposed to extend the line
to the park entrance.
In marking the lines of the boulevard
the Adams people have taken the iden-
teal course that would have been the
northern limit of the sixty two-acre
tract they offered five years ago to sell
to the city for public park. At a spe-
cial election the project was defeated
by a small vote. The land includes
as a golf links by the Oakland Golf
Club.
The railroad company will press the
work of construction rapidly. The pro-
jectors hope that in sixty days they can
begin tracklaying. and that before the
winter rains. come on cars will be in
operation.
In fixing the route for the Webster
Street and Park Railroad the franchise
called for line running through the
heart of the business district, but that
has been abandoned under an agree
ment with the Oakland Transit Consol-
idated. Transfer privileges have been
arranged so that the new line will have
its western terminus at Fourteenth
street and Broadway.

BERKELEY, July 31-Edith Boed-
diker, years of age, got a new pair Of
shoes yesterday, and she wanted every
body in the world to see them. She
thought that all the people in the world
crossed the bay every day on the Key
Route train, so she boarded the first
one out of Berkeley station San Fran
cisco bound.
The trip across the bay was eminent
ly satisfying TO the small Miss Boed-
dikers pardonable vanity. Everybody
who cared to see. and some who didn't,
looked upon those new shoes on her lit
tie feet. The patent leather tips were
particularly astonishing to the natives,
and general invitation was extended
to all to gaze upon their attractions.
Even the buttons were something to
marvel over, and some passengers lost
their breath in establishment.
Miss Boeddiker returned from the
city on the Southern Pacific train, hav-
ing visions of new fields to conquer.
The entire trip was spent in exhibiting
those new shoes and explaining their
shapeliness and texture and accoutre-
ments.
The wonder Of it all was that none Of
the passengers suspected that little
Miss Boeddiker was a wanderer Every
somebody else. Conductors never
thought of asking for the fare, and the
adventurous little maid succeeded in
practicing fraud upon two great cor
porations.
But Miss Boeddiker made a grave
strategical mistake when she arrived in
Berkeley again by getting off at the
wrong station. Up to this point her de-
signs against the railroads had worked
ont Wnndprf1111xy VIC off Of
the wrong station upset all plans She
was completely bewildered when she
found herself in unfamiliar surround
1ngs at Bergman station, in North
Berkeley. She was still confident how
ever, and did not cry or appeal to any
body for guidance. No; she struck out
down the first road she came to, which
she followed for two miles before any,
thing happened The happening was a
railroad track in West Berkeley that
she mistook for the Key Route track.
This she set out to follow, but instead
of coming toward Berkeley she went
toward New York
After long walking the small pedes-
trian found herself growing very tired.
Soon she could go no farther. It was
dark, too. So she lay down on the side
of the road and went to sleep. And
there she was found late in the evening
by man who happened to be passing
and who took her to his home and kept
her all night.
In the meantime the Boeddiker fam
lily had become almost distracted over
the disappearance of the vain but pre-
cocious pet of the household. They
searched everywhere; they notified the
police Of the two cities and the police
searched. But all the searching was of
no avail until the girl was returned to
her home this morning by the man who
had found her in slumber. He had
waited until morning to tell the police
of his find
The young traveller is very penitent
this morning because she caused so
much trouble, and promises never to
run away again until she gets another

Policemen Sherry and MeSCrley, who
arrested Scott while he was busy cut
ting up French heeled shoes. The
rooms were strewn with the remains of
ornaments and glassware that the de-
structive caller had swept off side
board. mantels and whatnOts. In the
kitchen steve were the smOldering rem
nants of silk dresses and lingerie that
Scott had destroyed by setting them
afire after saturating the garments
with kerosene
Mrs. Larsen's wardrobe had been
hauled out of the closets and indis-
criminately ripped to pieces or thrown
into the flames. Big picture hats. win
ter bonnets and summer straws all
went the same road. Scott tore the
dainty creations into shreds and threw
the pieces on the floor. Ribbons and
f1ounces in abundance. delights of my
lady's toilet, were ripped into small
bits.
And of his vandalism Scott had only
to say

That was not satisfactory to the pO-
lice, so they sent him to the City
Prison.

The police said Scott had called at
the house late this afternoon, and had
lounged around until he saw Mrs. Lar
sen depart in company with another
man. Scott had been a friend Of the
woman's. and he became enraged to see
her walking with the other man. AS
soon as she had disappeared Scott
went TO the rooms and started on his
mission of destruction.
While he was engaged in the job the
boy surprised him, but not before Scott
had ruined all of Mrs. Larsen's effects.
