.MRS.C.C.CALHOUN
DEAD IN BERKELEY
Came Around Horn in 1851 to
California With the First
Printing Press

BERKELEY, Jan. 17.-Mrs. Caroline
Cecilia Calhoun, who brought the first
printing press to California in 1851,
died last night at her home in this city
at the age of 81. She was the widow
of Charles A Calhoun, who opened the
first printing office in San Francisco.
Mrs. Calhoun had lived in Berkeley
since 1876. coming here when the city
was nothing more than wilderness of
ranches and pasture lands. She pur-
chased the first lot in the Leonard tract
which was opened up in the Dwight
way district and had lived here con-
tinually since that time.
She was a native of New York and
when her husband with his cousin VIII
liam Bovee, another noted pioneer. left
for California by the way of the Horn,
she remained there awaiting their word
as to what she should bring westward.
Two years later, with a complete
printing press and type she rounded
the Horn and went to San Francisco,
in 1851, where her husband with this
press was the first to engage in the
printing business in the state.
Charles Calhoun died a short time
afterward and Mrs. Calhoun removed to
this city. Of recent years she had been
living at the home of her daughter
Mrs. f. King. 243O Dwight way. Other
children who survive her are Charles A.
and Benjamin Calhoun and Mrs. Emma
Hall, a we'll known resident of this
city.
The funeral viii be held from her
late residence tomorrow afternoon at
> o'clock. Interment viii be private.

WANTSCITY TOPAY
INSPECTION FEES
Mayor Points Out Drawback in
Meat Ordinance and Adj
vOcates Amendment

OAKLAND, Jan. 17.-Payment of in
spection fees by the city was advocated
by Mayor Frank K Mott in MESA ge
submitted to the city council this even
ing recommending amendment of the
meat inspection ordinance, which the
chief executive signed last week The
ordinance as now framed imposes the
inspection costs on the slaughterer.
which, the mayor asserts, is not the
wisest method of effecting the purpose.
He requested the council to give this
phase of the meat market regulation
further consideration. The message
follows:
beg to inform you that have approved
an ordinance entitled An ordinance regu.
latlng the slaughtering of animals. pro-
yiding for the inspection OF meats etc: 10
be sold in the city Of Oakland and providing
on January s. 1910.
Some opposition exists to this ordinance
not on the ground of its general purposes.
which are admittedly wise and good, but
chiefly directed against that part which re-
iers to the fees to be charged for inspection.
Inc claim is made that we are putting a
burden upon local slaughterers none of
whom has United States government inspce-
tion owing to the fact that they 10 not
do an interstate business This ordinsnne
exempts from local inspection all federal in
spected slaughter houses and conseouentlv
they are not required to pay any fees, and
IT is claimed that they thus either un-
dersel local slaughtefers compel them to
accept smaller profit This may not be
altogether true, / am informed that
federal inspection is so rigid that slaughter
houses submitting TO the same are put 10
greater expense In the equipment and
maintenance of their plants than those who
confine their operations within the state
However. t seems to that this lues-
tion pf fees is one which should have YOUR
further consideration. / am frank 10 say
that think the method devised for meeting
this inspection expense is not the wisest.s as
II may tend TO create a wrong relation he
tween the inspector and the slauynterers
for under the plan adopted the latter prac-
tically pay direct The wages of the person
who is employed by the people to watch
and for their interests alone
1t seems to me that we might devise
some other method Of taxing slaughterers in
the event that the cost of Inspection is too
great for the city TO bear out of present
revenues; In fact, some such license tax
would not appear at all inequitable. but it
should be placed upon all wholesale butchers
alike who do business within the city
| therefore commend to your early consjd-
Grafton the suggestions herein contained
The mayors meat ordinance message
was referred to the ordinance and iu
dietary committee. Councilman yose
will introduce the amendments recon-
mended.
To establish police substation in the

propriated by the council. The board

wealthy ship chandler, Judge Waste in
timated today. Madison sued his wife
for divorce on the ground of extreme
cruelty and desertion AS to the de-
sert1on, Judge Waste said also that 1t
was not easy to determine whether or
not Mrs. Madison had deserted her hus-
band in the sense the law contemplates.
The judge said that the fact that the
pair continued to live in their home at
Hayward makes it difficult to deter
mine whether or not Mrs. Madison de-
serted her husband. Much testimony
was given in the case, most of it behind
closed doors, and the trial was inter-
rupted several times by Judge Waste s
illness Madisons charge of cruelty
consisted of alleged nagging and re-
fusal on the part of his wife to consider
herself such
