the flames had not reached the room
where the body lay.
Both the front and rear doors of the
cottage were locked una man 5 foot.
prints were found in the garden
around the house. 1t is the theory of
the police that the house was fired tc
hide the crime, though no motive for
numbering Mrs Gerber is found.
Reports of the finding of a pool of
blood near where the cottage stood,
this afternoon strengthened the belief
of the police that foul play was com
mitted.
Max Gerber, husband of the dead wo.
man, was questioned by the police this
afternoon.
DR.. L. B. Tiffany, autopsy surgeon of
Alameda county, examined the charred
body and announced that there was a
possible compound fracture Of the skull
though he was unable to determine
definitely because Of the condition of
the body, the lower limbs of which
burned entirely away.
From neighbors, the police learned
that Mrs. Gerber had feared violence.

HOW AGAssIZ RAISED MONEY

Many romantic narratlonS nave peeil made purporting to describe MT. Agassiz discoveries in that copper field. None or them surpassed in real, because true, romance the story of his achievement. He was brilliantly educated as man or science and had served for time on the United States coast survey. It was presumed that he, like his father was indifferent to money and would De con tent if he earned enough to maintain himself in a modest way and pursue his scientific investigation.
 However, there was the business slde of his intellectual equipment which was to be revealed after he took hold or these copper properties. He had little or no money himself, but he knew well where to go to get needed funds. Boston had for some years shown great 1avor toward mining properties, although some sad experiences had been the lot of those W ho ventured to speculate in far western mining enterprises. But when MT. Agas- sig went to the men of wealth or Boston he did not seek those who speculated' put instead the men who had gained fortunes l by what is sometimes called legitimate business methods. Moreover, he turned l to the inner and select circle of Boston social life. These men had confidence | in him, knowing what his professloal achievements and attainments were. He sought the aid of the Lees, and they were among BOStOn tlcSt. llC AfAo MY | to say the word to the Cabots, the HlS- ginsons, the Quincy Shaws' and the Pea | bodvs and his word was sufficent. This group, than which no other could better reflect the social and the intellectual aristocracy of Boston, having faith Tn Mr Agassiz, supplied him with all the I funds he needed. Their faith was justi- I fled. It was said in Boston at the time
 | of the death of Quincy Shaw that no
 small part of his fortune of many mill | lions was the reward he received for
 placing confidence in Alexander Agassiz. | This inner and select circle has always constituted the real Calumet and Hecla family. Major Higginson said the other day that he trusted that those of his
 name who succeeded him would main 1 tain the same interest in this property
 that he and his father before him maln- 1 tai

LITTLE NEW YORK STORIES
 BY A BIRMINGHAM MAN
By ALLEN GRIFFIN JOHNSON

New York, July 23.-(Special)-The girl
 said. Birmingham" heard that much
 distinctly, and her voice had none of
 the twang of New York in it. Although it was rather dark on the upper deck Of the vessel, a moon struggled through the
 clouds sufficiently to show me pretty
 outlne-and the next instant said outline
 might be said to have been virtually
 souashed against the heaving bosom of it's masculine escort. In my loneliness, l
 thought, 'She may be from Birmingham,
 all right but she has caught on quickly
 to the Coney Island boat etiquette
 Further investigation was not war ranted, and besides, except for the 1acs that the girl had used the word, "Bir- ningham," their sentimental indulgences were no more interesting, nor more fervid than those of at least two dozen moro couples upon the upper deck. If thers is any other place on earth where such
 performances are indulged in more openly,
 have yet to learn of it.
 You simply cannot ride on Coney
 Island boat and conduct yourself sanely
 without feeling conspicuous. Ordinarily,
 man would embrace and kiss even his
 mother-in-law in that atmosphere, and
 mother-in-law would stand for it right
 along too. Else what would she be doing in the darkness of that far-faIned upper deck of a boat bound for Coney?
 Thereon, one sees the fragile creature of some 200 pounds, avoirdupois, apparent- ly happy in the half-embrace of her four foot escort. It would be whole em- brace, but his stature makes that phys ical impossbility. There is also the sweet young thing of 40-odd-very odd summers held tight and palpitating against the hearts of the experienced young man-of-theworld of 20 years
 | There is only one person on the upper deck who seems cold and stolid-he is the deck watchman. I may be off on my nau- 1 tical terms, but deck watchman' is what | he works at. Every now and then, with

Tuscaloosa Plans Relief

Tuscaloosa, July 23.-(Special) )-There was largely attended mass meeting of the citizens of Tuscaloosa county at the courthouse this morning to discuss plans for relieving the sufferers from the recent high waters. The meeting was presided over by Chairman Fleetwood Rice of the relief committee. The situation was dis cussed in detair and a strong resolu- tion was adopted urging the county board of public works to utilize all available funds in repairing roads in over1owed districts in order to give employment to those that have been thrown out of work Commissioner of Agriculture Wade was present. and made an interesting talk, as we'll as offering some very valuable suggestions The commissioner advised all the farmers to plantssoy beans, tur- nips. potatoes and sorghum. A subscrip- tion list was authorized to be opened for the purpose of caring for any cases of destitution that might be reported. The meeting was attended by representatives from each section of the county affected by the recent floods.

dark and foreboding countenance, he makes the rounds of the upper deck, and casts critical glance at each couple. He doesn't seem to be happy at his task, and none of those upon whom he casts his glances appear to be overjoyed at seeing
 him. However, such is the amorous att mosphere of a Coney boat, that he is a necessary institution, though, as reg
 ulaI censor, he is one of the "broadest'' gentlemen imaginable
 Of course, these Coney Island boat trips are not the swagger thing, at all, yet they are immensely popular, and when one makes inquiries one discovers that virtually everybody has tried them out a few times, at any rate. If there is Birmingham swain down there who has a pretty sweetheart roam-
 ing around loose in New York city just 1 now, he should at least give her the chance to prove an alibi-besides, l have carefully avoided stating the date-and the girl may have come from Birming- ham, England.
 We are now asked to pay 10 cents per capita to take look at sharks cap- tured in these waters. And whatever
 New York is asked to pay, she pays all
 ways.
