Out Of doors trees should be avoided

lows the fash it IS evident that cleo
ric clouds are near at hand recum-
bent posture is the safest. 1t IS seldom
dangerous to take shelter under sheds,
carts or low buildings or under the
arch Of q bridge, and distance Of
twenty or thirty feet from tall trees or
houses is an eligible situation, for
should discharge take place these
elevated bodies are most liko1y to re-
ceive it.
It is we'll also to avoid water, for it
is a good conductor, and the height Of
q human being near the stream may
determine the direction Of discharge.
Within doors we are tolerably safe in
the middle Of q carpeted room or when
standing on thick hearth rug. The
chimney should be avoided on account
Of the conducting power of the carbon
deposited in it, and gilt holdings or
bell wires are sources Of risk. In bed
we are tolerably safe, since blankets
and feathers are bad conductors.
1t is injudicious to take refuge in a
cellar, because the discharge Is often
from the earth to q cloud, and build
ings frequently sustain the greatest
injury in their Easements.

PLANNING COMMON WATER
SUPPLY FOR BAY CITIES
Oakland Council Invites Municipal
Bodies of San Francisco, Berkeley
and Alameda to Conference

OAKLAND, July 5. = Resolutions
were adopted tonight by the City
Council to arrange for a conference in
this city on the subject of joint
municipal water supply from the
Sierra Nevada Mountains for the cities
of Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda and
San Francisco.
Councilman Aitken, who introduced
the resolutions, and Councilman Wal
lace said they had been assured by
members of the San Francisco Board
of Supervisors that a conference was
desired by the board and that the Su-
pervisors were investigating the mat
ter through a special committee. The
resolutions call for the meeting to be
held as early as possible.
Attention is directed to the provi-
sion of the State law which enables
cities to unite in obtaining a joint wa
ter supply. AS soon as the governing
bodies of the three sister cities can be
officially informed of the City Coun-
ciPs action tonight a date for the
proposed conference will be selected.
Councilman Howard was present for
the first time since his return from

cided by the Supreme Court. He
claims that the law as it now stands

FIND EXTINCT
ANIMAL BONES
Shasta Limestone Caves
Yield Remains of Strange
Type of Ancient Beast
ONE OF GOAT FAMILY
Scientific Men of Univer-
sity Describe a Relic
of the Fossil Collection
Berkeley Office San Francisco Call,

214S Center Street, July 5.
Traces of still another new type of
extinct animal have been found in the
limestone caves of Shasta County by
the scientists of the University of Cali
fornia. This time it is the skeleton of a
large ungulate, an animal resembling
the present day mountain goat. 1t diff
fers in many respects from the modern
beast, however, and has been named
euceratherium, which in Greek means
a beautiful horned wild beast.
The specimen was found by DR.. E. l..
Furlong of the paleontology depart
ment of the university in the Samwel
Cave in Shasta County. The cave is
situated on the east side of the Nc
Cloud River, thirteen miles north of
Baird, and is 355 feet above the river.
Remains of the animal have also been
found in the famous Potter Creek Cave,
the material consisting of broken horn
cores, teeth and other elements.
AS 1t now stands, the specimen con-
sists of Uranium without the jaw,
from which some of the parts are miss
ing. 1t lay on the surface of a deposit
of ossiferous clay flooring a deep vault
in the cave and was almost completely
covered with crystalline stalagmite. In
preparing the specimen Dr. Furlong
and Dr. William J. Sinclair, who as
sisted him, had great difficulty in keep
ing it intact, owing to the chalky char
acter and extreme thinness of the bones
OF the skull The nasals were restored
with plaster.
In bulletin devoted to a description
or this specimen Drs. rurlong and Sin
clair, who collaborated in the work,
say that the remains are of fully de-
veloped animal, approximating in size
a small COW and resembling the goat
in the elongated facial region The era
MUM is larger than in the big horn
sheep, while the horn cores are smaller
and are situated much farther behind
the orbits and differ greatly in form
and curvature.
In the opinion of the scientists the
animal belongs to a late subdivision of
the quaternary, an age that is probably
anywhere more than a million years
old. They agree that the age of the
deposit in the Samwel and Potter Creek
caves is later qaaternary, except that
the Potter Creek Cave is probably the
older

w. F. Judson, a San Francisco car
penter, dropped dead on a Piedmont
car at 5:15 o'clock this afternoon. The
passengers, of whom there were a
number on the car at the time, became
geatly excited when the unfortunate
man suddenly pitched from his seat
and fell to the floor. 1t was at first
thought that he had tainted, and Con-
the car, attempted to revive him, but
failed, and an examination revealed
the fact that Judson's heart had ceased
to beat.
When the passengers learned that
the man was dead, several of them at
once left the car, preferring to walk
or wait for another car rather than
continue the trip to Oakland in COM
pany with the corpse. When the car
reached the corner of Fourteenth street
and Broadway the body was carried
to a drug store and a physician was
called, but it was found that life was
already extinct. The body was then
removed to the Morgue.
Judson was returning from work in
Piedmont when he was stricken by
death. The deceased was married and
resided with his family at 573 Minna
street, San Francisco. He was 56 years
of age. 1t is supposed that death was
caused by heart disease.

OAKLAND BANKS
GET THE BONDS
Local Concerns Are the
Lucky Bidders Before the
Board of Supervisors
PRICE PAID is $96O,OOO
Issue Bearing Four Per
Cent Sells at Par, Cash
to Be Paid at Once
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.

1916 Broadway, July 5.
The school bonds voted at recent
election were sold by the Board of SUI
pervisors to-day to the Central Bank
of Oakland and the Oakland Bank of
Savings for $3.50, 900. The first named
institution took 100000 worth and the
latter took the remainder of $46O, 900.
The bonds sold for par and the money
is to be paid as soon as the bonds can
be issued. The Board of Education can
now begin the work -ojected for the
general Improvement of the public
school system of the city.
Much satisfaction is felt over the fact
that home concerns showed their con-
hdence and ability to take the entire
issue. There was a third bid before the
Board of Supervisors from +. H. Rol-
Inns & Sons of New York, who offered
to take the bonds at par and pay a
premium of $7013 so. But the bid was
conditioned upon the favorable report of
their attorneys that the proceedings
were regular. This offer was not con-
sidered in the light of bid. 1t was
rejected and the check of 500, 900 accom-
Pdhg lLS Nut Dlu was OIO6TeQ returned.
The two home banks that were
awarded the bonds made no conditions.
The bonds were voted at a general cleo
tion few weeks ago held for this pur-
pose. and are TO bear per cent inter-
est. This money is to go for the pur-
chase of school lands, for the erection
Of new school buildings and the en-
largement and renovation of old ones.
II is believed from estimates made prior
TO the calling of the election that with
the expediture of this sum the public
school system of this city can be made
second TO none in the State.
The Board Of Education took off,
cial notice Of the sale of the school
bonds to-day, and at its meeting to-
night began at once to put into effect

(. P. Carlson, a West Berkeley
grocer, doesn't mind being arrested.
but he declines to submit to humilia-
ton. Because of attacks on his repu-
tation he began suit to-day against
Marshal Charles T. Kerns of Berkeley
for $1,000 compensation for his injured
feelings.
Carlson charges that Kerns, while
arresting him for an alleged violation
of the Berkeley license ordinance,
called him a square head" This he
deems a reflection on his native land
of Sweden. He says Kerns emitted a
string of other words that would have
burned holes in a wet blanket.
There has long been a lack of cor
diality between Carlson and the Town
Marshal of Berkeley. The feud grew
out of Carlson's refusal to pay for a
peddler's license on the ground that it
is an injustice. Kerns, acting accord
ing to his Interpretation of the law.
has arrested Carlson half a dozen
times, but without effect.
Carlson submitted to these arrests
with complacency, but he certainly OBJ
jects to the MarshaFs references to his
nativity. He says that the last time
Kern arrested him the Marshal called
him "a - - square head"
swore that he (Kerns) was running
the town of Berkeley and generally
humiliated the grocer so that he wants
damages in the round sum named.

cannot be said to penetrate the thick
