and Of whom Miss Ruth Hofer, the Swiss
heiress, was one, were made to-day at an
meeting of 25o of the officials Of the Christian
Catholic Church, held at the Zion City
College.
The conference was secret, but the evil
dence that was placed before it will be con-
veyed to the people at a mass meeting to
be held Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Dowie
appeared as one Of the aocusers Of her de-
posed husband, declaring that her home
life had been happy until p~olygamous ten

Apostle. She resented his arguments. she
said, and because Of this he threatened her

The girls did look, and as Joyce held

There were three girls of them all
merry, light-hearted and thoughtless,
but this evening a new seriousness
was upon them. For one thing. moth

ralgic attack that somehow was be-

just given them their Christmas al

ber, and they had already begun to
plan for the great day.
Girls" he had said, as he handed
each one crisp SO bill, this year
you must really make this do. Don't
spend it and expect more, for it will
not be forthcoming. Times are hard,
money not easy to get and necessary
expenses must be met so remember
that while we all love Christmas, as
indeed we ought, yet we are not eX-

looked at one another,

FORM PURCHASING
COMBINATION.
Berkeley Savants Want to
Buy Their Hay and Dill
Pickles at Lower Rates
LARGE LOTS CHEAPER

BERKELEY. Oct. 1o.-Observing the
trend of the times toward combina-
tions that produce results favorable to
those that combine. various professors
who are prominent in the faculty of
the State University have conceived the
idea of organizing to purchase gro
ceries, hay, clothing and minor ar
ticles found in all households, in large
lots, so that the expense Of such pur-
chases may be reduced to a minimum.
The entire body of professors may
compose the combination eventually,
although at this stage the negotiations
have been confined to a few leading
spirits among the savants. Professor
Jacques Loeb, the eminent biologist, Is
credited with the idea OF cooperation
In the purchase Of the necessaries of
life.
Friends of the faculty, men who are
interested in the novel scheme. de-
fend the professors from any whis-
pered suggestions of 'commercialism'
by the retort that a simple expedient
to reduce the cost OF living Is Iegiti-
mate, and that. because a professor
has devoted his life to scientific or
classical research. no reason exists
why he should pay out most of his
meager four or five thousand, or one
or two thousand a year to grocers,
bakers. clothiers and others. who en-
Joy call upon the PROFESSIONAL gold.
Varsity men are regarded now as
peculiarly the victims of a situation
that has enabled bricklayers and car
penters, hod-carriers and mill men to
reap high wages. while professional
mems incomes remain stationary, with
the cost OF various necessities climb
ing up to the figh-water mark The
result of a consideration of this situ-
alton has apparently brought the uni
versity faculty men to a determination
to do little combining themselves.
The cooperative store on the
campus. in which some faculty men
hold stock, has been an object lesson
to them in the power of cooperation
to reduce the cost of things. What
ever the source, OF the inspiration may
be, the professors have discussed the
matter of buying their sugar and -four,
mutton and other household stuffs in
carload lots, and the matter has been
passed up to Professor Stringham,
dean of the college of social sciences,
for his judgment in the matter.

to attract their attention The pair
stepped along near a water stand pipe
when two men, not before observed,
sprang out of the shadow OF the build
Ing and ran rapidly away. Investi-
cation disclosed that they had broken
off two feet of the water pipe and had
dropped the pipe length when they
were discovered by the pedestrians.
The fugitives disappeared across a
vacant lot toward Encinal avenue.
Ciliani and Finke took the broken
pipe to the police station and reported
the circumstances. The police were
given a general description of the two
strangers and started on hunt after

MEETS
WITH APPROVAL.

OAKLAND, Oct. 10-According to a
report which A. Jonas. one of the COM
mittee on annexation, satisfactory
progress has been made in the move
ment to annex Fruitvale, Elmhurst
Meirose and Alameda to the city of
Oakland. The report was made to the
Merchants Exchange
In outlining the work thus far ac-
complished Jonas said:
This movement toward annexation
is non partisan. 1t Is preliminary to
the organization of consolidated city
and county government The outIv-
ing suburbs demand local government
This means they must either Incor-
porate as small towns or come under
one municipal Jurisdiction. The sec
ond course means a great saving In
the cost of government This we have
to offer our suburban neighbors If they
decide to unite with US. On the other
hand annexation means to the city Of
Oakland great advance toward the
ultimate -consolidatfon-and that
result will benefit every taxpayer by
measurably relieving the strain Of
paying for the dual city and county
governments now existing.
There is a strong community of in
terest which should draw the suburbs
to the city. We have conducted sew
eral meetings and are circulating pett-
tions to be signed which will urge
upon the City Council to call an cleo
tfon at which the question of annexa-
tion will be put to the voters 1 have
no doubt as to the result. We shall
go on record for annexation
