OAKLAND rs FLOODED
Storm Sewers Are Over
taxed by the Downpour

OAKLAND, March 1s-The continu-
Gus rain of the last two days resulted
In the flooding of several sections of
the city today. the storm sewers bein g
too small to carry or the downpour.
In Bay place. between Valdez street
and Walsworth avenue. residents were
imprisoned in their homes for several
hours by the flooding of the streets.
The same condition existed in East
Eighteenth street between Lake Shore
and Third avenues.
The clogging OF a sewer at First and
Washington streets this afternoon
caused the stream to back up, and
First street was flooded for several
blocks. Passengers on the Southern
Pacific overland trains were unable to
leave the cars at Broadway station,
being compelled to go on TO the pier
and return by way of Seventh street.
During the twenty -four hours ended
at l o'clock this afternoon 1.2S inches
of rain fell in this city. making a total
of 22.9 inches for the present season,
which exceeds the rainfall to the same
date last year by 5.5 inches.

he Immediately withdrew and would
not listen to a division Of the reward.
He said that il was reward enough to
know Miss Campbell.
This San Francisco girl, whose photo
graph was received by The Sunday
Call to be entered in the beauty con-
test, but with no name attached. cre-
ated more interest than anything that
has yet occurred in this interesting
competition. The girl being indeed
beautiful was talked of everywhere
for two days, and was identified by a
score or more persons. She was born
in San Francisco, is milliner in Van
Ness avenue shop, and they say that
she makes very pretty hats. She is
quiet and unaffected in her actions and
although she has hundreds of friends
who cannot help admiring her beauty,
she is entirely unspoiled and lives very
quietly with her mother.
All day yesterday men and women
who came in person to Identify the
girl called at the Sunday department
of The Call. Not one of them came with
a particular purpose of claiming the
reward, but all stopped and talked
about her, and that seemed to be the
main cause of their visit 1t must be

admiration from her men friends. One
told of Miss Campbell's lovely char
acter, another talked of her delight
fully simple nature. another told with
touching details of how she and her
mother lost everything in the great fire
and how they lived for six weeks in
the Presidio, until all the soldiers. Of
ficers, commissioned and noncommis-
stoned. down to the high private in the
rear rank, knew where that beautiful
girl lived and passed that way when
they might. just to catch a glimpse of
her.
But the highest compliment of all
was paid to her by a girl, who said:
when Hattie comes into the room at
a dance the rest of us may as well
leave" And the girl who said this had
no occasion to be ashamed OF her
looks.
Miss Campbell was at home last night
when called upon by a representative
of The Call. My. but l was surprised

STREAMS ARE RISING
Flood Is Threatened in the
Vicinity of Stockton

STOCKTON, March 1S.-The streams
in the vicinity of Stockton are rising.
The San Joaquin is coming up fast,
but is not at dangerous stage. Re
ports from the mountains tonight are
that the storm has been very heavy
along the watersheds of the Calaveras,
Stanislaus and Tuolumne rivers. and
much higher water is looked for to-
morrow. The flood waters of the
Stanislaus and Tuolumne rivers arose
seven feet today. Reports from Sonora
are that the rainfall today was the
heaviest of the winter. All of that
water will reach the San Joaquin River
south of Stockton probably tomorrow
night. None of the streams here are
dangerously high, but they cannot
carry much more water. and there is
a prospect for a higher stage tomor-
row. 1t is raining hard here tonight.
The American River Electric Com
pany's plant near Placerville. which
generates electricity used in Stockton
for operating the Central California
Street Railroad lines and for illumi-
mating part of the city. was closed
down today by the great flood that
came down the American River and at
o'clock this evening the service was
cut off here. The plant was located
high above any possible danger, it
was thought, but the water is over
the switchboard in the power house
and the food is unprecedented. Stock
ton has another electric system, the
old one owned by the Stockton Gas
and Electric Company. which is not
affected by the storm. and only the Gus
toners of the American River company
are disturbed at this time.

published, but accepted the compli-
ments in the way that she must have
learned. She is beautiful young
woman and is used to being told so.
She is young, not quite eighteen, is of
medium height and of beautiful figure.
Her hair is brown. disposed to fall
about her ears. The photographs of
her published in The Call gave the i'm
preston of a heavier chin than she in
reality has. Her nose is what is gem
orally called "aristocratic." HeP- won
derful coloring is her crowning glory.
Her whole bearing Is very proud, but
pleasantly approachable. She would
not seek fame for her beauty, but
knows that she is beautiful and does
not mind if she is told that she is.
The mystery cleared up, Miss Camp
bell is now entered in The Sunday
Calls beauty contest.
Miss Campbell was identified by Mrs.

HON Submerged and Water Rising, but
People Of Mining Town Cannot Escape

OROVILLE, March 1S.-Flood condi-
tions here are worse tonight and the
entire town is flooded with water.
There are 100 homeless people who can
not escape, as transportation is cut off
in every direction There has been
loss of life. but no estimate can be
made concerning il at this time. The
town is in state of decentralization.
At 10 o'clock tonight the river is still
rising and the situation is becomin g
more serious. The damage already
done to property is estimated at $780,
600. The greatest sufferer is probably
the Western Pacific Railroad Company.
Damage to the company's property has
reached at least 100000. The Northern
Electric Company's loss is also heavy.
Oroville is at present an island, and
it is impossible for a large number
of homeless people to escape to higher
ground. In spite of the excitement and
danger to the entire town, women and
children are being cared for as circum-
stances will permit. Men are work
ing like Trojans to save their property
and to protect their families from
harm. Goods stored In easements and
lower floors are being moved upstairs.
1t is feared that some of the houses
will fall, as the foundations have been
weakened. If the food waters con-
tinue to rise the lives of many people
will be jeopardized.
After the floods shall have ceased
it will require a long time to make
many of the houses habitable, and
there will be much suffering unless aid
can be given the homeless until they
are able to provide for themselves. All
attempts to bring aid to the town,
however will be useless until the
waters subside.

critics were caused Dy fights between
the western railroads. The coal prop
critics of the company were declared to
be worth $50,720.17O. OF these proper
ties, that at Red Lodge, Mont, was
