PART OF STANFORD
FARM TO BE SOLD
University Trustees Plan Foot.
hill Boulevard to Open Up
Big Tract
[SeeeiaI Dispatch TO The Call

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, July IS
A new footllin boulevard, from the uni
versity TO Los Altos, is planned by the
university trustees and the county Off
cials. AS soon as details can be ar
ranged and the project receives the
sanction of the state legislature actual
work of construction will begin.
According to the proposed plans the
road will branch off from the county
road at a point back of the campus and
will wind its way from that point
through the foothills to Los Altos. All
of the land which the new route will
and up TO this time has been used most
ly for farming purposes.
The university trustees, with the
consent of the state legislature, expect
TO place the land on the market. The
land to be disposed of is especially well
adapted to orchards, small fruits and
vegetables. 1t lies within two miles of
Palo Alto and already both steam and
electric roads approach the property.
According to reports the county has
obtained a SO. year lease on the bouie-
ward from the university trustees and
the next session of the legislature may
witness the granting of rights to sell
this land, by an act modifying the
terms of the trust under which it is
now held The cost of the proposed
boulevard is regarded as of little con-
sequence. as the road will add much
property to the assessment roll, return
ing in taxes many times the original
cost of construction. Supervisor Mitch
ell will have charge of the work.

in AN alarm of fire.
A blind woman, who occupies the
room from which the springs were
taken, went to her bed to lie down and
fell through to the floor, receiving a
blow on the back of the head which
rendered her unconscious for an hour.
Miss OrVa Martin, the Is year old
daughter, ran several blocks to summon

WOMAN ACCUSES
LAWYER OF FRAUD
Mrs. Bridget Denehar Asks for
Arrest of Attorney, Who
Says "Spite Work"

Alleging that Attorney Daniel O'Con-
nell obtained sl20 from her by false
pretenses, Mrs. Bridget Denehar,
through Attorney Joe Jordan, yester-
day applied to the bond and warrant
clerks Office for the arrest of the ac-
cused counselor.
Mrs. Denehar said that two years ago
she retained O'Connell to prosecute a
case against Sheriff Taylor of Marin
county for $4,000 damages on the
ground that Taylor had falsely impris
oned her husband, who was subse-
quently committed to the Stockton asy-
lum for the insane.
O'Connell emphatically denied that
Mrs Denehar ever retained him for
any purpose and said she never at any
time paid him the sum mentioned. In
a statement issued by him he stated
that he was retained by the husband
to prosecute the damage case and that
the suit was, after a petition for a
change of venue had been denied by
the Marin county courts. stricken from
the calendar with the consent of the
plaintiff.
The application for the warrant at
this time he credited to the animosity
borne against him by Attorney Joe
Jordan Jordan is attorney for the de-
fense in an action O'Connell has insti-
tuted against the Industrial investment
company.

ACROBAT PERFORMS IN
COURT; WINS $I,5OO
Judge, After Viewing Trick, AL
lows Damages

HAMILTON, O., July 1S.-An aero
batic performance was given in the
common pleas court here today, and as
a result a verdict Of $500 against the
c. H. & D. railroad was allowed to
stand.
William Deonso, trick jumper, was
the performer and Judge Murphy was
the spectator and critic. Deonso was
hurt in a railroad accident some months
ago, later suing the company and be-
ing awarded $1,000 damages. He had
been jumping in and out of barrels for
a livelihood, but after the accident
claimed he could no longer do that
trick and perfected a new perform
ance.
The railroad sought to have the YER
dict set aside, claiming that the new
trick was more difficult than the other.
Deonso thereupon went through the
new trick and showed the court that
while it seemed difficult to an audience
any child could do it with a bit Of
coaching.

TEACHER MOURNS
FOR WANING BRAIN
After Instructing Children for
63 Years His Mind Begins
to Wander.

After having devoted sS years of his
life to teaching in the public schools in
different parts of the United States
Henry C. Kline probably will become a
public charge.
Kinne, who is 81 years of age, was
found wandering around Fifth and
Market streets Sunday night by Police
man Thomas Hyland, who took him to
the city detention hospital, where he
will be examined this morning as to
his sanity
The aged teacher in lucid intervals
knew the condition of his mind and
was able to give a few disconnected
sentences telling of his life. He said
he was born near Canterbury, Conn.
one of IL sons of prosperous farmer.
but he early developed a desire to be-
come an instructor and secured a posi-
tion as teacher in district school, at
the same time continuing his work on
the farm. Later he left his home and
went to New York. where he taught
for many years, but he seems to have
done most, of his work as a teacher in
Ohio, where he said he has a daughter,
Helen Kinne, a professor in the Peo-
pies college.
The old man in his lucid moments de-
plored his inability to leave the hospital
and return to Forestville, Sonoma
county. where he said he taught until
close of school in June. In his mo-
ments of sanity he talked sadly of his
waning brain. Later he thought he
was back on the farm in Connecticut
or teaching a district country school in
New York. When questioned he be-
came bewildered. He can not tell how
he happened to come to San Francisco.
Kinne said he was q nephew Of the
late George Evans, at one time United
States senator from Maine.
