NEW POLICEMEN AT A
PREMIUM IN OAKLAND
Commissioners Appoint Five,
but Only One Accepts

OAKLAND Aug. 23.-New- policemen
are apparently at a premium in this
city at present, judging from the re-
luctance which eligibles have displayed
during the last week to accept ap-
pointments to the force.
The board of police commissioners
last week appointed the following FIVE
men to fill vacancies in the depart
ment: NJ. o. Enocksen. F. n. Lyons,
c. F. Smith, Claude Christie, and E. w.
Griffin.
or this quintet only one. Enocksen.
accepted his appointment. The other
four have declined to serve, and the
commissioners will be obliged to make
a fresh batch OF appointments this
week In order to bring the force up to
its full quota of men. l. D. Token,
former bailiff of the police court, will
probably be one of the next appointees.
Toxin resigned from the force several
years ago to go into the saloon bust
ness. Now he is seeking to be re-
appointed.

size OF the one now in use, be erected

years. For some time past Doctor Nc
Cash has advised the building of a new
church. the old one being far two
small for the needs of the growing
congregation, and the ultimatum de-
Uttered at yesterdays election Of the
pastor is the result of his fight for bet
ter quarters.

for a new church was referred by the
deacons yesterday to a committee who
will report next Sunday. At this time
Doctor McCash will announce his plans
for the future.
