Too strongly on Divine Aid.

insanity. but they were examined and
released. Today they were arrested

claim they are neglecting their cows

MOTHER AND CHILD
IRE RUNAWAYS.
Aged Portuguese Tells Sad
Story of How He Was De-
serted by His Loved Ones
CANNOT TRACE THEM

OAKLAND. Nov. IO.-A runaway
wife. daughter who has stopped to
folly. and a heartbroken husband and
father-that is the gist of the story
that Joaquin Cabral told at the County
Clerks Office today 1t was sadder be-
cause the father is nearly 20 years old,
while the wife that deserted him is only
30. The daughter is not more than Is.
Cahral is illitcrate and knows only
that his wife has deserted him and his
daughters whereabouts is unknown.
Cahral was searching for his daugh-
ter today when he called at the County
Clerks Office. He wanted to know
whether she had been married in this
country
Il married my wife in Portugal
twenty years ago" said Cabral- she
was mere child and I was nearly so
years old. but I loved her and she said
she loved me. After our child was
born We came to California We have
been living about two miles from San
Leandro. six months ago my wife de-
serted me and left a note that she
would take care of herself. She asked
me TO take care Of our child. A month
later the child. Dolores, disappeared.
and she left note announcing her
shame. I cared little about the disap-
pearance Of my wife, but I must save
my daughter. Ny reason for calling at
the County Clerks Office is to ascertain
whether the child has secured a mar
rage license. There is no record of her
marriage here, but I purpose to search
every County Clerks Office in the State.
The man who wrecked her life is named
Johnson. I think his given name is AL
ton. I shall not stop until have found
him and made him right the wrong.

WINE men READY.
! FOR BAT TIE.
Pure Food Measure Com
pels "Brick Vineyardists'
to Describe Their Goods
EXPOSES INVITATIONS

The greatest fight for trade terri
tory in which the winemakers of Cali
fornia have been engaged in all the
years of the wine industry in this
State is about to begin. The circular
issued by the California Wine Asso-
citation and similar circular emanat-
ing from the Asti vineyard manage
ment, published exclusively in The
Call, may be considered to have set
the pace at which the conflict will
open. Ordinary red wines will be 80
per cent off the price of standard
wines. This fact has previously been
mentioned. but repetition is necessary
fully to illustrate the situation in the
light of recent Developments.
The trade war will open in New
Orleans. Immediately after the great
fire in San Francisco, when the con-
sumption of California wines made a
shortage in the market supplies and
California prices were raised, the
brick vineyard men of the East saw
their opening and sent $500 barrels of
so-called wine" into the city on the
Gulf In a period of about a fortnight.
A circular letter was sent out to the
purchasers of wines by the Stone
hill Wine Company of Hermann, Mo-,
in which the statement was made that
the company was making a bid for
New York business Offers were
made to supply Burgundy, Riesling,
Hook and Zinfandel wines produced in
Missouri 1t is well known that the
vinifera from which these wines are
supposed to be made cannot be sue
cessfully grown east of the Rocky
Mountains. Hence the conclusion was
forced upon the handlers of Califor-
MIA wines that the offerings were open
to question. Added resentment against
those who were striving to get the
Eastern markets from California was
noticeable.
Now the California wine men have
several trump cards to play. The first
is the food and drug law that will go
into effect on January 1, 1907. The
provisions of that law compel manu-
facturers to describe and enumerate
the ingredients that are contained In
goods. BY this the purchaser will be
able to see at a glance whether he
is buying wine or some imitation. The
brick vineyard" men will be forced
70 show down what they have The
California wine interests. being in
terested in marketing the juice OF
grape, will be in better position the
more the home product is investigated.
The coming struggle will represent
millions of dollars of invested capital
in this State.

"TELHARMON|UM"
DR.. Z. Hills Invention for
Producing Music by Elec-
trical Means Exhibited
VIBRATION PRINCIPLE

NEW YORK, Nov. 1o.-Dr. Thaddeus
HilPs invention for producing music by
electrical vibrations, as one would tele-
phone, called the ''telharmonium,' was
exhibited last night at the Cafe Martin.
TO produce the vibrations set of
elaborate machinery and electric ap-
pliances has been installed. There is a
set OF 145 alternating current dynamos.
which make vibrations varying from
sixteen to eighteen thousand second.
These currents are passed through
tone mixers and are released by a
keyboard, not unlike the keyboard of a
pipe organ. The keyboard is played by
a musician. and the electric currents
give the vibrations required to produce
the music desired.
AT present there are two keyboards,
which represent a flute and a horn.
Two more are to be put in at once,
and the effect will be that of four In
struments played together. The music
can be transmitted through a tele-
phone.

MARKED CHANGE IN
CEMENT TRADE
Needs of San Francisco
Cause of Boom in Build
ing Material Business

Stagnation in the Portland cement
trade in 1905 has given way, says the
London Times, to a decided improve
ment,. both in Great Britain and the
continent OF Europe.
Demand has fully overtaken produc-
ton, prices have improved and are
still tending upward and manufacture
ers are accumulating untitled orders.
The San Francisco rebuilding needs
created an unusual demand for cement,
but before that there were unmistak-
able signs Of recovery. During the
year 1906 the total shipments from the
United Kingdom to the United States
amounted to 1880 tons and in 1895 to
5073tons, while for the seven months
ended June 81 last they had already
reached the comparatively large total
of 6o,932 tons. The total British ex-
ports in 1905 amounted to 456,55s tons,
while the exports for the first seven
months of this year were 358.551 tons.
The maximum annual production of
Portland cement in Great Britain is
estimated at about 100000 tons.
Belgium exports annually consider
ably larger quantities of cement than
Great Britain, the total for 1905 being
679,426 and for 1904 55S,295 metric tons
For the first six months of this year
the exports amounted to 380.55s tons.
1t Is claimed on behalf OF Belgium ex-
porters that by prompt action after
the earthquake at San Francisco they
secured the lions share of the newly
created business with that city.
But the export figures for the six
months to the end of June show that
the shipments from Belgium to Amer
lea fell short of what was shipped from
Great Britain. being 1882 metric tons,
against 49,54o long tons from Great
Britain. It is estimated however, that
the orders yet to be shipped from Bel
gium during the twelve months ending
next March amount to about $4,000
tons. The productive capacity OF the
thirteen syndicated mills in Belgium is
about 100000 tons per annum, and at
the present time these mills are turning
out full production.
The German cement manufacturers
have been the chief competitors with
Great Britain in artificial cement, and
for some time succeeded in wrestling
certain markets, the most pronounced
success being with America. In 1902
the German exports to the United
States amounted to 246,730 tons out of
total American imports of 6ee,sso tons,
but the home demand has been more
largely met by local manufacture
which reduced the exports from Ger
many to S6,043 tons last year out of q
total import Of 617,s91 tons. The re-
covery in the German cement trade is
as clearly marked as in England, being
helped by the extraordinary activity in
the German building trades. The works
of the several syndicates are being
pushed to the full extent. The German
exports for the first half OF this year
amount to ,626 metric tons. OF which
1928 tons went to the United States
against 46,55s tons in the first half OF
last year.
