Mr.. Hayes has been at Mountain

been in the habit ofitaking long walks
through the mountains, generally ac-

to be enjoying himself immensely and
was apparently in the best of health.
| Nearly every day he made a trip to
Oakland and had become well known in
the town. Friday he came to Oakland
alone, and as he passed through the
streets he met number of acquaint-
ances, and stopped to chat with several
| of them. Most Of them remarked upon
his appearance of good health, and to
most of these he replied that he was
feeling very well indeed.
He was apparently on his way back
to Mountain Lake Park when he became

vacant house on Oak street. He had
been there but short time when

was still conscious and who evidently
realized that he was seriously ill, asked
Mr.. Friend to get him to z physician as
quickly as possible.
Mr.. Friend sent a messenger to DR..

once. They took Mr.. Hayes to the
Oakland Saratorium about four blocks
away, where everything possible was
done for him. MIR. HAYES, however,

NEW OFFICIALS elected
F0R PARK ASSOCIATION
MIR. 6. S. HamiI Becomes President
and Mr.. I. A. RudisiII Secretary.

At meeting of thesdTectors of the
Mountain Lake Park Association held
YESTERDAY afternoon at the law offices
OF Mr.. Gilmor So Hamill in Oakland,
matters of extreme Importance to the
Association as well as to the residents
of Oakland and Mountain Lake Park
were considered and action taken
whereby a reorganization of the Park
directors board and its officers was
effected.
By the resignation of DR.. Goucher,
who holds large block of the stock of
the Association, as a director of the
concern, Rev. W. D. Reed. of Oakland,
who is also heavy stockholder, was
elected to FIJI the vacancy caused by
DR.. Goucher's resignation from the
Board

ing Mr.. Gilmor S. Hamill of Oakland,
who was one of the founders of tie
Association and who has been a director
ever since its organization, its presi-
dent, replacing DR.. C. W. Baldwin,
who has been the dominant factor in
the affairs Of the Association for a
great number of years.
After the election of DR.. Reed as a
director he rendered his resignation as
secretary and Mr.. L. A Rudisill, OF
Oakland and Mountain Lake Park, was
unanimously elected secretary and will
assume his duties within a short time
The position Of secretary is not a new
one to Mr.. Rudisill for he filled that
important position in the Park 8
palmiest days and contributed much tc
its success when such eminent men as
Dr. Talmage, DR.. Dewitt Miller. Sam
Jones and other like National figures
graced the platform and faced thous-
ands of people in the old as we'll as il
the new amphitheatre.
With MIR. Hamlll as its president, DR.,
Reed as one of the directors and Mr..
Rudisill back in his old position, better
days are looked for at the Park, but
this cannot be accomplished without the
aid and undivided support of the people
there as well as in Oakland, ard it /;
confidently predicted that the new
regime will have that without a dis
Senter.

ness, at the approach of a bright and

/ dawn, or the glorious autumnal days,
| pale the other seasons of the year into
insignifcance. The master work, a
deXterity of art, is likened to the refec-

the season at its eminence of grandeur
the leaves perfect blend of color,
dyed, as it were, with carmine tints of

serves our admiration before it fades
