Offspring Would Inherit In
sanity, Kills Them

ANTIOCH, July S0--One after an
other four little children were drowned
in a tub today by their mother. The
woman, Mrs. Joseph Mello, walked away
from her dead babies quietly and met
her neighbors who came to arrest her
in calm spirit Something had given
way in her mind-snapped without
warning-and she conceived the idea
that her children would inherit insan-
ity.
Mrs Mello was alone with her chill
dren in her home a few miles east of
here near Iron house. The oldest child
was years, the next 2. and then came
the twins, 3 months old.
No one has been able to rehearse the
details of the pathetic scene. When
Mello, the husband left home, the elder
children were playing and the twins
were asleep. When he returned from
work there was the tub and quiet arms
and legs and an empty crib
Mello was almost prostrated by his
grief, but he found Sheriff r.. r. Veale.
who took Mrs. Mello to the Martinez
Jail, the woman talking quietly on the
way about ordinary things. She never
before had given any evidence of in
sanity.

Charley Rogers the lighting artist. and
Charles Weber to box four rounds
This bout is one which is attracting
considerable attention as we'll as the
main attraction between One Round
Hogan and frankie Burns. Rogers is
an artist on a local newspaper and as
a pastime Rogers boxes and enjoys the
sport He is fast man and some of
his admirers believe that he has a
bright future if he should care to ,.e-
vote all his time to the ring.

toner, who has defeated some of the
fastest boys in his class. This bout
promises TO be a whir1wind affair.
The Hogan Burns scrap is causing
widespread gossip among the followers
of the four round game, as the boys
represent the best in their class. HO-
gan has been a terror among the light
weights in the amateur game and sell
dom has any of them been able TO
weather the four rounds with him.
However. Burns is figured to be the
toughest fighter he has ever stacked
up against and many shrewd judges
of boxers look for him to take: the
measure of Hogan.
Both Hogan and Burns are in train
ing. The former is at Milletts Colma
resort getting ready. Burns Is at

AGED PHYSICIAN
STRUCK BY AUTO
DR.. A. w. CANDLES Injuries in

Result Fatally

OAKLAND, July 30.-Dr. A. w. Gam
BILE of High street and Persimmon aye
nue., Fruitvale, was run down and
probably fatally injured today by an
automobile driven by H C. Billeville of
1895 Telegraph avenue. Gamble was
crossing Telegraph avenue at Seven
teenth street, and did not see the ma
chine approach at the time.
His left shoulder was broken and he
suffered internal injuries. He Is more
than 80 years of age, and is not ex-
pected to survive the shock He was
taken to the receiving hospital for
treatment.
Doctor Gamble recently gained noto-
riety because of a fierce contest he
carried on with his wife over property
that had belonged to their deceased
son. The property. in Fruitvale, is
worth $4,000. Each parent accused
the other of prejudicing the sons mind
before his death so as to acquire the
property. AS he lay today on what
may be his deathbed, Doctor Gamble
ragged incoherently against Kate Don
nelly of Alameda, whom he accused OF
being responsible for his trouble with
his wife.

DISSENSION rife
in ANGELS CAMP
Daley and Murphy Fined for
Poor Playing i'm Recent Game
With Senators

The losing streak of the Los Angeles
team is probably due more to the dis
sension which exists among the players
than TO the playing of the Senators.
The Angels have been beaten five
games in row by the tail end team,
which is not according to baseball dope,
and something must be wrong. Captain
Dillon has taken hand by plastering a
$40 fine on Daley for not running out a
play to second and assessing Outtielder
Murphy IS for making a stupid play.
1t was during Fridays game that
Dillon took hand. Daley was on the
initial sack He was signaled to go to
second. but failed to run out the play
and Dillon called him. Heated words
pa ssed between the captain and the
player, in which the latter said he
would not pay the fine. Other players
mixed in the affair. and the feeling
which exists now is not likely to bring
results which will please Henry Berry,
president of the club, or the Los An
geles fans
1t will be remembered how poorly
Daley played during the teams last
series here. 1t is doubtful if there is a
better outfielder in the league than
this same Daley, but several of his
plays in the series against Oakland
were far from his best efforts. 1t was
even remarked that the playing was
not becoming to a man of Daley 5
ability.
Murphy was fined IS for stupid play
in holding a hit which went into left
field. Instead of throwing the ball right
back into the infield Murphy held it
long enough to allow base runner to
come home.
1t might be good thing if Henry
Berry would get on the job and get
things Strengthened out before his team
is out of the race. -.

MASON PHELPS IS
AGAIN CHAMPION
Holder of Western Coli Title i'm
1908 Beats Evans i'm Hot
Contest

MINNEAPOLIS, July 30.-Mason E.
Phelps of Midlothian won the western
amateur golf championship tournament
Evans Jr. of Edgewater. the champion of
1909, by 2 up and to play. in hotly
contested match in the finals of the
Western golf association at the Mini
kahda club today. Phelps won the title
for the first time in 1908 at Rock
Island.
The winner played far better golf
than his opponent, especially during
the afternoon round. Evans was up
at the end of the morning round, the
eighteenth being the hole that Phelps
won. In the afternoon, however, the
Midlothian youth started with rush
and evened the match at the end of
two holes. After that Evans never
was able to regain the lead. and Phelps
jumped to the fore by winning the
fifth, but Evans .evened it again at the
sixth. The seventh and eighth went
to Phelps. making him 2 up. The
ninth, tenth and: eleventh were halved
and Evans reduced Phelps lead to
up when he won the twelfth, That
was the last hole. that Evans could win
and the thirteenth. fourteenth. fifteenth
and sixteenth. were halved in par
figures.
The match ended on the seventeenth
green, when Phelps ran down a six
foot put for two and won the hole.
Evans missed a chance for half on
this hole, when he sent 20 foot putt
one inch short of the cup.
Evans, played raggedly at times.
while Phelps played far more consist
emily.
An unusual feature of the match was
the halving of the first Il holes on
the morning round. Neither man was
able to win hole until Evans took the
twelfth. Evans had a good opportunity
of winning the sixteenth and evening
the match, but his putt hung on the
lip of the cup. enabling Phelps TO halve
the hole. Again on the seventeenth
Evans long putt stopped within an
inch of the hole.
