Contra Costa Official Says

BOYS RELISH MEAT

MARTINEZ. Jan. 17.-One of the
most pitiable cases of paternal neglect
ever brought to the attention OF the
local authorities came to light when
william Oliver of Port Costa sought
the arrest of John Eckstrom of Nevada
Docks yesterday on the charge of feed
ing his two small sons diseased horse
flesh and compelling them. to- beg in
the streets of this city and Port Costa
Oliver could not substantiates his al
legations as to the quality of the meat
and District Attorney Alvarado re-
fused to issue warrant on the ground
that there is no law prohibiting the
consumption of horse flesh.
Eckstrom admits feeding the meat to
his children, but denies that 1t is inn
pure and asked a questioner to par
take of bologna sausage made from
the same material. When the invita-
tion was declined he vindicated him.
self by eating half pound or more
of the sausage and declared 1t to be
better than the average sausage in the
market. The children claim to be so
accustomed to the use of the meat as
to wish IT. They admit that their
father is habitually intoxicated and
leaves them for days at a time to care
for their cabin in Shepards Canyon
While no arrests have been made up
to this time, it is probable that an In
vestigation will be instituted.

The knife penetrated the flesh and

President Wheeler of Uni
versity Spends the Lone
some Early Hours There
HIS TRAIN IS LATE

BERKELEY, Jan. 17-President Ben
jamin Ide wheeler underwent a unique
experience several nights ago. when he
was obliged to spend the lonesome
early morning hours in the Ferry build
ing in San Francisco because of the
failure Of railroad corporations
trains to make schedule time. The head
Of the university was called to Monte
rey early in the week, and when re-
turning planned to arrive in San Fran
cisco at night and then cross the bay
TO his Berkeley home.
The train from Monterey was delayed
by washOuts and other accidents. and
Instead of arriving in San Francisco at
. o'clock, or Whereabouts, the university
president found the time of his arrival
TO be past the witching midnight hour.
The last boat for Berkeley had gone.
The nearest hotels were uptown. a long
ways from the ferry depot. The cars
had ceased running. Hacks were ap-
parentiy nOnexistent. The university
president was obliged to linger on the
hard stone floors of the depot until the
first boat left IN the morning. Abund-
ant time was given him to study the
paintings in the corridors. the exhibit
of the State Board Of Trade and other
attractions of the ferry depot. Presi-
dent Wheeler was game, and enough OF
a philosopher to make the bet Of
trying situation
Students who come into the univers-
ity now with stories of having been
delayed en- route by bad train or. steam
ship service meet with a sympathetic
word from President Wheeler.

that he objected to too much turkey
and suggested TO his spouse that she
eliminate turkey from the bill of fare
and economize. Porter was still on the

A WRECK
At EUREKA

EUREKA. Jan. 1.-THE steam
schooner Sequoia. owned by the
Charles Nelson Lumber Company of
San Francisco and commanded by Cap
tain A. n. Lunstedt, lies on the rocks
near the north jetty of Humboldt Bar,
a total wreck. The local agent for the
underwriters has no hopes that even
her engines will be saved.
The Sequoia sailed from San Fran
cisco on Sunday, January 49, and ar
rived off the bar at 6 o'clock Monday
night A heavy pail of darkness hung
over the bar but il did not deter Cap
tain Lunstedt from making an attempt
to get inside. He swung the vessel
hard TO port in the effort TO pass one
of the spars marking the channel. and
il was then. says the skipper. that
the tiller rope broke, and though he
tried relief gear he could not keep
the vessel from going on the rocks.

launched in an effort TO reach the yes

comprising the crew. The seas were
running mountain high and the surf
boat had no chance to get near enough
the stranded steamer to take off the
crew. A line was shot over her. but
became ensnarled in rocks and the
crew could not pull it aboard.
Seeing that they were in no imme-
date danger, the crew decided to stay
aboard until morning, and on Tues
day morning about 3 o'clock the first
boatload left the ship in charge of the
mate. The life-saving surfboat was

the sailors ashore the captain leaving

Battling Nelson's Brother Is
Preparing to Fight Disease
Forms Medical Society
and Asks Purse to
Aid Enterprise

BERKELEY. Jan. 17.-Battling Nell
sons brother, Charles. has entered
the arena In struggle for knowledge.
He is going to learn how to fight dis
ease. He expects to knock out a col
lege education at the university and
Charles has been in preliminary mental
training since last term, but now he
has decided to try his alert mind in
the profession of medicine
Charles Nelson is a uright young fell
low, capable of going at least twenty
rounds with the best medical course
any factory for the overeducation of
youth can produce. He is a retiring.
slender-built sort of a chap, with a
keen intellect and a powerful knowl-
edge of how to use it TO the best ad-
vantage. His unassuming manner has
led many students to believe that
Charley would rather remain in the
dressingroom than pose in the foot
lights In this they have been vastly
mistaken, for Charles Nelson has sud-
denly reached out in right minded
sort of a way and organized the Cali
medical Club and it is no amateur
organization, either. The Calimedical
will have the sanction of the uni
versity faculty. it is believed, and be-
come fraternity where a fellow will
be expected to take his medicine and
not squeal.''
The university has a loan fund to
assist such organizations. and Nelson
and his organization have asked the
faculty to put up a purse of $1,000 out
of this fund to help promote the en-
terprise. Temporary medical training
quarters have been secured on College
avenue. but permanent quarters will
soon be sought
A constitution and bylaws are being
framed and will contain the very latest
adaptation of the scientific guide to the
elimination of a bad cold with a hot
punch.
