MYSTERY OF O'BRIAN'S
DEATH DIFFICULT One
Testimony at the Inquest May
Aid the Officers in Pene-
trating 1t.

OAKLAND, July 12.-Neither the
Sheriff nor the Coroner has uncovered
any evidence that will solve the n1ys-
terry surrounding the death of John
OBrian, the San Leandro rancher,
whose body was cut in two by Hay
wards electric car near Elmhurst yes
terday morning.
A motive for murder is lacking.
though there are a few Suspicious
circumstances which have not been
cleared.
Sheriff Barnet traced OBrian in all
of his movements for the day and up
to midnight Tuesday. The officer
found that the man had been drinking
heavily, was without money, had quar-
relied with no one, had no known enc
mics, and, save for his occasional
sprees, was quiet, law-abiding man.
On the other hand, peculiar injuries on
O'Brians head lead to the possibility
that thugs might have assaulted him
and, to hide evidence Of murder, placed
his body on the car tracks.
Coroner Mehrmann will hold an in
quest tomorrow at San Leandro, when
all testimony that can be obtained will
be given to jury.

NATURE SYMPHONY
DRAWS THRONG.
Largest Crowd of Sum-
mer Hears Concert at
the Greek Theater
SWAYED BY MUSIC

BERKELEY. July 12.-Promise on
the part of the university authorities
of a symphony concert programme de-
voted to nature music" a novelty In
the way of a music fest" drew to the
Greek Theater this afternoon the larg-
est crowd that has been in attendance
at any of the concerts during the sum-
mer.
The brilliant rays OF the July sun
made the stone benches a bit uncom-
Portable. but the throng Of music lovers
fingered until the final bar of the last
played, and the echo Of the exquisite
melody had died away. The beautiful
surroundings that make the Greek
Theater so picturesque never seemed
more appropriate, as setting of a
feast of music, than was the case this
afternoon, when the programme con-
tanned so much of nature music" that
it required no strength OF the imagi-
nation to fancy that the theater. with
it's fringe Of greenery and the blue sky
for a ceiling. had been made especially
for the occasion
The charm OF Rafrs famous sym
phony, In the Forest" under these
fdyllic conditions, was Irresistible
Critics who have written OF this sym
phony style it a picture of daytime,
twilight and night in the woods. The
Characterization Is correct. The music
suggests all the mysterious fascination
of the primevaI woods. The call of the
cornets, the dreamy reveries induced
by the violins, weaving their sflken
melody; the lively dance movement that
follows, where dryads may be thought
of as keeping step to the strains-an
serve TO give the lover OF nature and
the devotee of music his fill of sensuous
delight.
Dvorak's Overture to Nature" was a
fitting feature with which to begin the
concert, and Bachs delicious Pastor
ale" followed, with Raf's glorious SYM
phony next. Geieg's Evening in the
Mountains" and AT the Cradle" and
Goldmark's Overture to Spring were
the remaining numbers OF the pro-t
gramme.

ley-tf the marriage relation were
always ideal-just- what it should be
there would, perhaps, be no need
of an ante-nuptial agreement, but un-
der present and existing conditions
such would certainly help the condt-
tion of the wife and mother
1 know a very lovely woman, an
ideal mother and wife. who lived with
an exacting. overbearing man for
thirty-five years, keeping his home
and raising four fine boys to manhood.
This husband had the grace to die at
last, leaving a large fortune, but did
this wife even after freed from his per-
sonal presence have any freer, better
life? No. He left every dollar of his
money that she had helped him to
earn in such a way that she could not
handle one cent beyond meager
monthly allowance. The courts would
have allowed her a third but her
pride forbade her to ask the courts for
what her unjust husband had denied
her-the right to use some Of the
money she had assisted in making. 1t
makes one indignant to think that
such things can be in an enlightened,
civilized community, and this is only
one example of the many injustices to
wives and mothers in this year of
Christianity 1906.
When women are allowed a vote
they will naturally correct some of
these things. Until that time let us
hope that laws such as that suggested
by Mr.. Martin may be made to make
woman's burden lighter. When wo-
men are economically free they will
have much better chance for
moral freedom. 1t may be a
large claim, but 1 believe it is true
that nine out of ten Of our fallen
women would be virtuous women to-
day If they were able to earn an hon.
est living on an equal footing with
their brother men. How many women
marry solely because they want a
home, and how many wives endure a
condition that is little better than
their fallen sisters and a condition
into which they would not place them
selves if they were mans equal eco
nomically? So far as the best con-
ditions of right and justice for wo-
manhood and motherhood are involved
in Mr.. Martins idea, success to 1t!
WIVES GET THE MONEY, ANYWAY.
MRS. JAMES C. LYNCH, past presi-
dent of the Town and Gown Club
Most of the wives get all of their hus-
bands money, anyway, so 1 do not feel
as though there is much to be said
about this proposed law.
American women are all right, and
the American men are all right if you
only know how to treat them If the
conditions change, as proposed, the
American woman will be no more than
she is today. If il is necessary, she
will help support the family. l am not
afraid for the American women. 1
know they are economical and will al
ways get along.

LABOR BODY Goes
INTO POLITICS.
Oakland Central Council
Calls a Convention
to Nominate Ticket
CLASH rs CERTAIN

OAKLAND. July 12.-The Central
Labor Council, representing unions
affiliated with the American Fedora
ton of Labor. has gone into politics
as labor organization. 1t has called
convention for July 30, at which a
complete ticket will be placed in the
field for the fall election.
This move tends to complicate the
Labor party situation. That organiza-
tion. known as the Union Labor party,
has central county committee, headed
by Attorney A. s. Ormsby. To be sure,
Ormsby's title to the chairmanship is
contested by B. f. Calhoun. At the
same time, this body has a petition
under consideration by the Board Of
Supervisors for a place on the regular
official ballot as the Union Labor party.
Now comes the Central Labor Coun-
ell with a manifesto In which the coun-
Gil inferentially attacks the Union La
Dor party organization. This decIara-
tion, sent to the labor unionists in the
county, recites:
In view of the fact that lawyers and
others are attempting to direct the
political affairs of union men with the
result that our title Union Labor is
being carelessly handled, thereby caus-
ing much confusion, 1T was decided by

1t is not legislation but education that
is needed, and that depends upon the
people themselves.
The Suggested law would soon be-
come a dead letter ! The laws of the

That question should be de-

MRS. ANNA BARRY, president of the
Twentieth Century Club--It is not be-

It Takes
Nerve

Everything depends upon
your nerves. 1t is nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion of your body; it is
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins; it
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food, your
kidneys to filter the blood, and
the liver to secrete bile.
In fact, nerve force is the
power that runs your body, so
if you feel worn-out, irritable,
nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
well, have pain or misery
anywhere, your nerves are
weak, and your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take DR.. Miles Nervine. which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves.
For eighteen years DIR. Miles
Nervine and Anti-Pain Pills have been
my close companions. Early in mar
rfed life. while raising children. my
nerves became all worn-out-could rot
sleep; had no appetite; indigestion
very bad. and had such awful dizzy
spells. Then I began using DR. Miles
Nervine, and at once / began 10 i'm
