and build elsewhere. S. Page, living
at Bancroft way and Telegraph ave-
nue., close to the business block which
j. A Marshall is erecting and near
the Epworth Church, is one of these
citizens, who is preparing to call in the
house-mover, and Louis Titus, resid-
ing across the street from Mr..
Knowles, is another.
Each of these men has a splendid
mansion, surrounded with elaborate
grounds, and all are indignant that
the fashionable residence section of
Berkeley, which they fancied was to
be exclusively for the rich residing
there, has been invaded by the busi-
ness block, the apartment house and
the Methodist church.
Mr.. Knowles has bought a large lot
on Durant avenue, north of Telegraph
avenue, closer to the foothills. and
there workmen are preparing to receive
the Knowles establishment when it has
been taken from its present site.
CROWDS INTERESTED.
Crowds of curious persons gather
daily in front of the Knowles mansion,
watching the spectacle of a million
aires palace being taken entire, with
ali it's inhabitants, away from spot
which long has been one of the show
places of the city, to a new location.
Mr. Knowles grimly surveyed the
crowd to-day and remarked:
It's tough to have your home treated this
way. but I'm going to try the experiment OF
moving the house. big as 1t is. instead OF
building a one. The folks like this house
and We won't give il up Do | object to the
church? Well churches usually are not con-
sidered desirable additions to frst-class resi-
dence district but 1 don't care to be put in
the attitude of objecting to them. do object
to a big business block being built adjoining
my home but as l can't prevent 1t I'm going
to take UP my house and go.
/ understand that Mr.. Gale and Mr.. Titus
are also to move They live across from the
church and the business block. Some is
going to put up an apartment house in the rear
Of the church later and that won't be exactly
a desirable thing. What am l going TO do
with the property here-the land | am leav-
ing? Haven't decided yet.

because his millions have failed to pro-
cure for him immunity from the en-

people, W. E. Knowles, a former Klon-
dixie Croesus, now prominent resi-
dent of Berkeley. has given orders to
have his magnificent mansion at Du
rant and Telegraph avenues removed
entire from the handsome grounds it
has hitherto adorned.
Despite the fact that Mr.. Knowles
when he built his imposing home four
years ago bought enough land as a site
for dozen ordinary homes the area
has not proved sufficiently large to
protect him from a large business
block which ]. A. Marshall another
Berkeley capitalist, is erecting in the
rear of Knowles mansion nor to pre-
serve him from the close association
which the new Epworth Methodist
Church has provided for the Knowles
menage.
A fortune was put into the Knowles
home, its value being estimated at
$4,000, but despite its elaborate char
acter and its great size every vestige
of it is to be moved from the corner
of Durant and Telegraph avenues.
Workmen began yesterday the task of
transferring the mansion to the new
home site recently bought
