CRUISER MILWAUKEE, SAILS
New Warship Departs for Salvador to
Protect American Interests

The United States cruiser Milwaukee.
Captain Cove, sailed yesterday for Ia
Union, Salvador, to protect American
interests there in the event of war re
sulting from President Zelaya's am
bilious dream of expansion. The order
ing away of the Milwaukee on service
|, will be a disappointment TO the people
of Santa Barbara. to which place the
Milwaukee was to have gone to partici-
pate in the fourth of July festivities.
To officers and crew also the duty is
not especially welcome. For the men
it may mean long spell without shore
leave liberty and for all hands the dis
comfort of the Central American eli
mate at it's hottest. If the service in
Salvador held even the remote promise
of a scrap, officers and men would have
received the sailing orders with en-
thusiasm, but under the circumstances
there was little rejoicing on the cruiser
when the new white fighting machine
steamed out into the Pacific.
The Milwaukee has yet to have it's
final trial. The government is still
retaining a percentage of the cruisers
cost until such time as the trial board
passes upon certain features that were
not satisfactory on previous trials. The
trial board was ready to make it's final
test when the recent accident to the
Milwaukee's machinery put the cruiser
out of business, and before the vessel
was ready for sea the officers of the
trial board were ordered east on other
business.
There have been. many desertions
from the Milwaukee since the cruiser
went into commission, which was the
reason for the vessels anchoring OFF
Sausalito instead of in man of war row.
The Pacific Mail liner San Jaun.
which sailed yesterday, carried a ship
ment of arms and ammunition for the
government of Salvador.

BRIDES TR0USSEAU AND
GEMS STOLEN At DEPOT
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO TIE CALL

MEMO PARK. June 2e.-To have
her entire trousseau stolen along with
several hundred dollars worth of jewels
on the eve Of her return from her wed
ding tourney was the experience Of
Mrs. Oliver " Kehrlein, formerly Miss
Frances Coon. a local society belle,
whose trunk was rified last night by a
thief as It lay in the depot here. Ac-
companied by her husband, who is well
known here and in San Francisco as
well as Belvedere, where he has i
handsome residence, Mrs. Kehrlein
had Just come from the southern poF-
ton Of the State. They had spent their
honeymoon and were staying at the
home of the brides parents here.
The trunk had been left overnight
II the station and the value of its con-
tents evidently was known to the bur-
slar. who effected an entrance to the
baggage room and confined his atten-
ton to the one piece Of baggage. That
more loot was not carried off by the
thief was due to the fact that Kehr-
iein had transferred the greater part
OF his wifes Jewelry to his suitcase
before leaving Los Angeles.
Sheriff Chatham of San Mateo and
several deputies are at work on the
case, but as yet have not received any
clews to the identity Of the robber-

Two men are dead, two more will
die and two others are severely in
jured as the result of the collapse of a
built scaffold yesterday afternoon on
a building in course of construction al
Fourth and Jessie streets. Suddenly
with a great crash, the temporary
framework came down and the six
workmen were precipitated to the pave
ment, Sc feet below. They were buried
beneath the wreckage and a quantity
of brick and mortar which had been
carried aloft, and that all were no,

his weight to it and the men had nc
chance to escape. Five of them land
ed in a heap on the sidewalk. while
Riley was thrown farther out His
skull was fractured, all of his ribs were
broken and his back wrenched. He
died shortly after being removed to the
hospital. Bennett struck on his shoul-
ders and his skull was fractured. He
was dead when lifted out of the ambu-
lance at the receiving hospital.

is being erected by Knowles & Reich
ley, contractors, and is owned by ]. B.
Kerfoet. The work was in charge OF
Superintendent Sydney Watson. He
made the following statement:
The scaffold had just been erected
and was to be used for standing on
only. Contrary to orders, a quantity
of building material had been carried
up and the additional weight, in my
opinion, was responsible for the acci-
dent"

HUSBAND BEAT HER ON
WEDDING NIGHT, SHE SAYS

OAKLAND June 26.-After journey
ing from Italy to Oakland to marry a
man whom she had seen but once, Mrs.
Pauline Isola complains that she has
been subjected to extremely cruel treat
ment at his hands and has filed suit
for divorce and the custody of their
infant daughter.
The Isolas were married in July, 1908,
following the arrival of Mrs Isola, ac-
cording to an agreement reached in the
old country. She declares in her COM
plaint that on the first night of their
married life Isola gave her a brutal
beating and that he continued this
practice until she fed from him recent
ly. On several occasions, she alleges,
she was thrown from bed by her hus-
band and forced to sleep on the floor
without covers. She charges that at
other times she was kept out of the
house and but for the shelter afforded
by nefghbors she would have been -ex-
posed over night to the rain.
Vulgar and insulting language was
used freely at all times by Isola when
he deigned TO speak to his wife and
this is also specified in the terms of the
complaint as a cause of action. A re-
straining order has been issued by the
superior court to prevent Isola from
disposing of the household furniture
and his bank account while the suit is
pending.
Suit for divorce was filed today by
Mollie A. Patterson against Robert e.
Patterson on the ground of his habit
ual intemperance.

BERKELEY, June 26.-Dr. John E.
McTaggart, former president of Trinity
college. at Cambridge, England. who
has come to the state university to de-
liver a course of lectures at the summer
school, gave an indication today of his
originality and daring as a philosopher
when ne announced to a group of con-
freres at the Faculty club his belief that
dogs and similar animals had souls and
were immortal.
DR.. McTaggart is an atheist, although
he has been retained in a high place
in the faculty of Trinity college, rated
as a most orthodox institution. He
wrote a book last year called Some
Dogmas of Religion" which has been
one of the best sellers" in philosoph-
ical literature His first lecture here
was delivered this morning in the phil
osophy building, and the little assembly
room was crowded.
An informal reception was given DR..
McTaggart by the university notables
at the Faculty club. He was greeted
by Professor Howison, Professor Over
street, Professor Rieber, Professor Ste
phens and many others When asked
later in the. day about his declaration
OF belief in the possession of souls by
dogs and kindred animals, Professor
McTaggart said:
L certainly believe that dogs. horses
and all the animals that can be classi-
fed as of the higher order have souls
and are immortal. ! should be greatly
surprised if such were not the case.
Reason and logic indicate that the ami
mails 1 have mentioned are possessed
of souls and that they are immortal, as
man is immortal.
Il am of the opinion that dogs, to
take a specimen animal, have intelli-
gence, and believe that intelligence is
immortal. It is difficult to draw the
line and mark the division between ami
mails that may be considered to have
intelligence, warranting belief in their
immortality, and animals that are not
thus endowed.
'I do not try to draw the line, for to
do so would be practically impossible.
I think, however. that there can be no
doubt about the correctness of the idea
that all the higher animals, like man.
the horse and the dog, have souls
Professor Howison of the University
of California a year ago made state
ments to his class in ethics similar to
those of DR.. McTaggart regarding the
immortality of animals. Professor
Howison has corresponded with DR.. Nc
Taggart on the subject during the last
year.

Tell of Wreckage Scene
at Fred BradIey's Flat
Hole in Concrete Indicates
Dynamite Was Set Off

In the taking of depositions for the
Haywood trial regarding the blow
ing up of f. w. Bradley's home
in this city in 1904. Walter H.
ing, called to the stand yester-
day DR.. E. E. Kelly, who occupied one
of the other flats in the building at
the time of the explosion; o. A. Cra-
mer. the contractor who built the flats;
p w. Doyle, his foreman; Bert r.
Lewis and F. A. Gilley, plumbers.
DIR. Kelly testified that he helped
carry Bradley to an adjoining house
after the explosion. He said that the
front of the mining mans fat was
completely demolished and so Uttered
with debris that he could not be taken
into his own home. When asked on
cross examination by 0. M. Van Duyn,
representing the prosecution, whether
he had seen hole in the concrete YES
tibule Immediately in front of Bradley S
fiat. he said that there was such a
hole three or four feet across and that
it was necessary to step over it to get
into the Bradley fiat.
DIR. Kelly also testified that the iron
railing on the street side of the vesti-
bule was blown away. On redirect ex-
animation, however, the witness said
that when he first ran to the front of
the house after the explosion he saw
what he believed to be smoke, but
afterward presumed it to be dust.
When he went out he did not detect the
odor of smoke from dynamite.
p w Doyle and o. A. Cramer both
testified that they examined the flats
after the explosion and helped repair
them. The walls of the rooms in the
front part of the house, which were
blown out had the appearance of hav-
ing been forced out by some interior
force" Cramer said that the greatest
force of the explosion seemed to be in
the corner of the vestibule farthest
from the Bradley door. Both witnesses
testified that the staircases leading to
the upper fats from the vestibule had
the appearance of having been blown
out from underneath.
Bert r. Lewis explained that he had
been called to the flats three days be-
fore the explosion to find where the
gas was leaking. He stated that he
went all over the house but was unable
to detect the smell of gas. He did not
at that time, however, enter the room
where the meters were kept Later,
however. q month after the explosion,
he was present when the meters were
examined preparatory to turning on
the gas again and he detected the
smell of gas coming from meter.
F. A. Gilley testified to having found
a pin hole in this meter He was the
contracting plumber when the flats
were built. He said that there had
always been trouble with the gas
pipes in the flats.
During the four days of deposition
taking the defense, represented by
Fred Miller -of Spokane, has been ex-
amining witnesses under the direction
of Walter H. Linforth and his attorney
Samuel M. Shortridge, to prove that
the flats were blown up by a gas ex-
plosion and not by a dynamite bomb
as sworn to by Harry Orchard on the
witness stand at Boise This is the
chief testimony that has been secured
by the defense for the purpose of i'm
peaching Orchards testimony. and will
be introduced In the trial before the
defense closes its case.

The fact that the staff is about to leave

ONE SIDED ALTOGETHER.

That scum of creation, the dog pois- oner, has been doing dirty work again. During the past week several valuable dogs have been given dose of poison. Dr. Chilson came near loosing one and Mir Selsted, Manager of the Western Union, had to doctor his dog, both hav- ing been dosed \ good thick coat of tar and feathers will probably be ap- piled should he be located.-Coconino Sun.
 Through the columns of the newspaper press there seems run- ming now an epidemic of such items as the foregoing; for within two weeks TIE OASIS has noticed at least dozen in as many differ ent newspapers, widely separated. The natural inference is that there is sweeping over the country a wave of dog poisoning No doubt there is. And this is just the
The oasis., 1907-06-29

season that such e wave may be ex- pccted This Is the garden season.
 lt Is doubtless very exasperating Co the owner of q finely bred dog to arise in the morning and find his iavorile outside the door, cold in death from full sized dose of poisor. And all lovers of fine dogs feel upon such occasions like giv- ing expression to sentiments like the foregoing. But no doubt there has been just as much exaspera- ton in the breast of the poisoner at finding favorite and costly plants and bushes torn up by the roots through the antics of rollick. ing dogs, permitted by their owners to run at large at night. The lover of flowers and rare plants who makes an effort to have them grow ing in his premises has just as much right to undisturbed owner ship as has the owner of fine dog; and if the latter permits his dog to run at large and destroy the pos sessions of the other, he has no cause for complaint when the lat ter resorts to a dose of poison. Moral: Tie up your dog nights.
