SHOCK SAN RAFAEL
Antics of Youths in Girls Cos.
tunes Create Thrills in
Residence Section

SAN RAFAEL, Jan. 12.-Dressed in
the latest and daintiest of feminine
modes four young men, headed by Nor
gan Draper, son of Colonel L. w. Dra-
per and brother to Miss Elsa and Dor
othy Draper, well known society girls
of San Rafael, yesterday treated the
neighborhood about the Hotel Rafael
TO some genuine thrills. Their female
disguises were perfect, and until the
quartet removed the thick wells that
hid their faces persons who watched
their antics believed them to be all
their clothes purported.
The fun was kept up for an hour,
after which the women" disappeared
in the Draper home. A few minutes
later Constable George Agnew, who
had been notified of the action of the
ladies'" put in an appearance to in
Vestigate, but the birds had flown,
leaving no trace.
Early in the afternoon four young
women. fashionably attired, were seen
to walk out of the ground surrounding
the Hotel Rafael. Their skirts were
held high, exposing several extra
inches Of openwork stockings On
their bewigged heads expensive Par
isian creations poised at rakish angles.
They seemed exhilarated, and skirt
dancing and fancy high kicking were
INDUCED in every few steps.
About that time every window cur
tain in the vicinity shaded a gasping
circle of curious women-and broadly
grinning men. One person, however,
telephoned to police headquarters.
Constable Agnew was on his way when
the four maids wended their way into
the Hotel Rafael grounds and later
TO the Draper home.

SAUSALITO TRUSTEES TO
SUE WATER COMPANY
Concern May Forfeit Plant for
Charter Violations

SAUSALITo, Jan. 1S.-The town trus-
tees of Sausalito at their meeting Mon
day evening definitely decided to bring
suit against the Sausalito spring water
company for the forfeiture of its $50, 900
plant. The suit will be brought on the
ground that the company has violated
Its charter by selling water outside of
the town limits of Sausalito.
An ordinance stipulates that the water
company shall charge for water at the
rate OF So cents per thousand gallons.
1t is now charged, however, that the
company has been selling water to out
siders and has received a price as high
as S1.50 per thousand gallons.
Uncle Sam paid that price to get
water TO replenish the tanks of the rev.
enue cutters. When the managers of
the corporation were asked why they
charged that price the reply was that it
was all they could get The officers of
the company then hastened to say that
the government could have had the
water at cents thousand gallons, but
that Uncle Sans representatives forgot
TO ask for a reduced rate.
In the meantime Sausalito citizens
thirsted and drank beer as it is charged

Former Minneapolis Employers
Accuse Him of Victimizing
Them for Big Sum

OAKLAND. Jan. 12-Alfred lie Beuf
defaulting cashier of Hale Bros Oak
land store, who has been held to an
swer to the superior court on two
charges of felony embezzlement and
Is awaiting preliminary hearing on
three other charges, is accused of hav-
ing embezzled a large sum of money
from wholesale commission firm with
which he was formerly connected in
Minneapolis, according TO letters in the
hands of Chief of Police Wilson.
A j. du Bean, a member of the firm
of Du Bean Bros, SO South Thirteenth
street, Milwaukee, has written 10 Chief
wilson saying that lie Beuf absconded
from Minneapolis with such a large
amount of the firms funds that the
concern was Obliged 10 go out Of
business. The date of lie Beufs disap-
pearance from Minneapolis is not given
in the letter. but Du Bean states that
he has been searching in vain through
out the country for the missing man
without obtaining any trace of his
whereabouts until the news 'of his ar
rest in Oakland was published. Ac-
cording to Du Bean, lie Beuf was ar
rested in Minneapolis when his short
ages there were discovered. but he was
released on bonds and then fed the
city, leaving his bondSmen responsible G.
1t is my earnest wish that the Oak
land courts will give lie Beuf the limit
and then some" writes Du Bean in the
concluding paragraph of his letter.
lie Beuf is accused of having en-
bezzled $4,000 from Hale Bros, and he
has confessed that he took the money
and squandered it in various gambling
games.
Heretofore he has maintined that his
thefts from Hale Bros. constituted the
first criminal offense which he had
ever committed, and the news Of his
alleged embezzlements in Minneapolis
came as a distinct surprise TO the pO-
lice.
LIE Beuf intimated to the police that
he would plead guilty in the superior
court II he were prosecuted on
only one of the five charges of felony
embezzlement against him, and for a
time the authorities were disposed to
listen to his proposal. but recently
they have changed their attitude. He
was arraigned and held to answer on
second charge during last week.

SACK IN OREGON
FOR SENATORSHIP
Chamberlain Men Say They
Have Been Offered Bribes
FSoecioI Di,ootcb fo The CoUI

PORTLAND. Ore. Jan. 12.-Reports
from Salem today show that the barrel
is being opened at the state legisla-
ture. which began yesterday, by the
opposition to Governor Chamberlain,
democratic candidate for United States
senator.
Statement No. 1 republicans, who are
pledged to vote for Chamberlain, a
democrat, say they have been ap-
preached and tempting bats dangled
before their eyes to desert the gov
ernor. Within the last "a hours two
republican senators have been offered
bribes if they would violate their state
ment No. 1 pledge. These two senators
have admitted they were solicited to
break their pledge. They request
however. that their names be withheld
from publication at least for the
present.
In addition to the two who frankly
admit that representatives of the re-
dictionaries have attempted this bribery
it is known that a third senator is feel
ing the pressure of the antis. The
third senator does not say specifically
that he. has received propositions, but
he has informed friends that they are
after me" and that they are doing
everything they can to force him into
line.
Federal patronage and cash are the
inducements. One United States ap-
pointment has even been offered TO diff
ferent men, which would appear as
though the men attempting the bribery
are not playing a square game even
from their standpoint.
To one statement 1 republican the
offer of $4,000 was made providing
he would not vote for George z. Cham
berlain for United States senator. This
offer the senator says was made by a
man he has known many years. a man
who has had considerable experience
in the political machines OF other days
and who is considered honorable in
Portland.
The offer was made without strings.
On refusal to vote for Chamberlain the
money was to be paid over To the
second republican senator a straight
out offer of a federal appointment was
proposed. This senator was not asked
TO vote for any special man for United
States senator. All that was stipulated
was that he do not vote for Chamber
lain.
Each of the senator's has told his
story to the newspapers. The third
senator who intimates that pressure is
being brought on him has been in a
state of nervousness since the session
opened and is being cornered and but
tonholed by the reactionaries at every
available opportunity,
