the dead girl is prosperous attorney.
Miss Wise had been an invalid for
some years suffering from melancholia
and suicidal mania. According to DR..
Frank R. Woolsey, who attended her,
she had made previous efforts to kill
herself in the past four years.
Miss Wise came to Berkeley from
the Hawaiian Islands in July in the
hope of benefting her health.
After taking the poison she refused
to swallow antidotes and seemed de-
termined to die, although two weeks
elapsed before the effects of the drug
got beyond the control of the doctors.
Miss Wise was % years old.

There may be pleasanter ways OF
spending the break in the motion pic
ture show programs but they have not
been made public. There is generally
tiresome wait during the evening and
it may as well be spent dancing in the
Waverley Club as elsewhere. The mu-
sic is decidedly the best in the city
and the arrangements of the dances
most satisfactory. There is always
someone in the hall willing to dance
with stranger and a thorough home
like feeling prevails among the patrons
of the place.

GENERAL STRIKE SUGGESTED.
NEW YORK, November 17.-The
imprisonment of Samuel Gompers, pre-
sident of the American Federation Of
Labor, is to be the signal for strike
approaching almost to the limits of a
labor revolution, if the proposal of the
members of the central federation at
Philadelphia is adopted. This body
has made the suggestion that the clos
ing of the prison door on Gompers be
made the signal for strike of all the
members of the federation.
The New York leaders have taken
the suggestion under advisement, the
only expressions of opinion made upon
it by them so far being those of dis
approval.

ind Japan regarding the development
OF mines In Manchurin. Copies Of this
agreement were received IN the state
department not long ago. Article 4
of the agreement Is as follows:
"All mines along the Antung-Mukden'
railway and the main line Of tbe South
Manchurian railway. excepting those
at Fushun and Yuentai shall be ex-
plotted as joint enterprises OF japanese
and Chinese subjects on the general
principles which the viceroy Of east
ern three provinces and the governor
OF Shingking province agreed upon
with the Japanese consul general In
1907
No decision has been reached as to
whether this article is IN contravention
of the "open door policy. When the
state departments investigation into
the matter has been ended Mr. Knox
II Is assumed, will determine the ad
visibility Of making a formal protest
against the agreement to China and
Japan. The charge that Charles Il
Crane had informed newspaper cor
respondent that this government was
preparing to protest against the agree
ment resulted IN his recall from Saf
Francisco to Washington and enforced
resignation Of his commission as min
lister to China.
