THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1897.
ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS.
DR. CARROLL IS
VERY POPULAR
Eeport of Discontent Is
Spread by an Enemy
of His.
The Entire Congregation Is
Anxious to Express Its
Esteem,
An Ex-Officer of the Boys' Brigade Is
Responsible for the Cal
umny.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,)
908 Broadway, Sept. 10. )
A man not a member of the Eighth
avenue M. E. Church, who peeped through
the door when Rev. Dr. Carroll was tak
ing his farewell of his congregation last
Wednesday evening, is credited with try
ing to spread trouble, and unfortunately
some of the mischief-making sentiments
have been published.
The trustees are a unit in denying that
there is any unpleasantness, and the
whole congregation is unanimous in their
esteem of the retiring pastor. Dr. Carroll.
"This is the regular year for ministers
of our denomination to chance," said
Trustee H. M. Cameron, "and we have
known for a year that he would not stay
another term. All this trouble has been
caused by a yonnrr man named Bird, who
wanted to be officious, and who left the
church many months aco. He wan a lien
tenant in the Boys' brigade, he peeped
in last Wednesday evening, and then
went out and made base misrepresenta
tions. It Is true the church carries a big
debt, but interest and running expenses
are paid up to date, and Dr. Carroll has
been wonderfully successful, both spirit
ually and financially."
"In order to thoroughly explode the ru
mors of unpleasantness," said President
Lombard ol the Sunday-school, "we would
iike The Call to publish this resolution,
wine • is the sincere expression of every
officer and member of the church."
The resolu ion is as follows:
Kindly Fareue'.l Greeting to Key. S. J Carroll,
D.D.: as this conierence year is nearly ended
an. i « ttli its closing will terminate the labors
of our pastor, Dr. Carroll, with the Eighth-ave
nue M. £. Church of East Oakland, and in con
sideration of ;lu= .separation your committee,
appointed at the fourth quarterly conference,
was requested to draft an expression of the ap
preciation of one who has served us so well as
our pastor for the past lour years.
Therefore, we his co-workers and members
of the i ffieial board de cheerfully present to
our retiring pastor this brief token of our love
and esteem for him.
Brother Carroll came to us four years ago. at
the commencement of the financial depression
that had then taken a firm hold upon the
members, and in consequence amid the finan
cial realm of each department of the church
there was fell the necessity of some one to
lead and command the forces jigaltist impend
ing disaster. Hence, through the agency of
Him who knows the wants ol all, and the an
nual conference. Brother Carroll was sent to
this charge to be our leader and counselor,
and with his Indefatigable perseverance lias
succeeded beyond our most sanguine expecta
tion in stemming strong tide ol depression
all through these yeara of unrest.
' And it was not alone in thia line that we
found in him a ready helper, but in the pulpit
he has been an eloquent and loyal exponent
of the rules of our church and the doctrine of
Christianity.
We have ever found in him a kind friend
and an excellent counselor, always ready as a
pastor to respond to the calls of the needy, the
ii< k and the dying.
Under his pastorate the spiritual condition
oi ihe church is equal to any among us. As a
leader in the prayer circle and all other social
departments Brother Carroll is the peer of any
Ot.e, and we do cheerfully commend him to
any charge that the Bishop and his cabinet
may send him.
Brother Carroll leaves with us his four years*
record, and In his absence we trust all wiil
find much to comfort and admire while perus
ing the pages of that record, lor there will be
lound the prayers offered and the earnest
pleadings rendered in tenali of our spiritual
and financial prosperity.
A MISSING MAN.
ontracior 9. J. Boyle Drops Suddenly
Out of S ght— Believed to He Suffer
in}' From Melancholia.
ALAMEDA, Cai*, Sept. 10. Contractor
J. J. Boyle has been missing from his
home since la*t Wednesday forenoon. At
that time he started for San Francisco to
transact some business, and has not been
seen since. City Attorney Taylor is, as
far as known, the last person in this city
who saw him.
There is absolutely no clew as to his
whereabouts. Mr. Boyle is a prominent
contractor, and at the present time has
several buildings in course of construction
in this city. His family say that his busi
ness is all right and that his resources ex
ceed his liabilities. G. A. Bordweil has
taken charge of his affairs, and until he
can straighten out matters it will not be
known how Boyle stands financially. It
is evident that he made no preparations
to leave bis creditors in the lurch, as there
are considerable amounts that he could
have collected and taken with him had he
so desired.
Frank Rounds, the missinu man's step
son, is actively searching for him. lie
says Boyle has been suffering from rheu
matism and insomnia for some lime and
■ bat he has hardly slept for the past ten
days. From this fact it is believed that
he is suffering from dementia and has
wandered away or perhaps mads way
with himself. The police of Oakland and
San Francisco have been notified and in
other ways the search is beint; kept up.
Mr. Boyle is about 53 years of age,
medium height, somewhat heavy in build,
full lace and wore a sandy mmtache.
More Hay Burned.
ALAMEDA, Cal.. Sept. 10.— A large
shed in the old Neptune Garden grounds
at West Alameda, In which a lot of nay
belonging to Luboen Bros, was stored,
was destroyed by fire this afternoon. This
is the same firm which lost $2000 worth of
hay on Tuesday morning last and the hay
burned to-day was some that was saved
from that fire. .•'"-,<'-. -;••■.
City Officials at Baseball.
ALAMEDA, Cal., Sept. 10.— A great
deal of amusement is expected from the
baseball came to-morrow between the
city officials of Oakland and a nine from
the officials of 'Alameda. Both sides are
of course confident of winning and con
siderable practice has been done, in
preparation for the event.
Quarreling Neighbors.
ALAMEDA, Cal, Bept. 10.— G. M. Olsen
was arrested last evening on a charge o.
battery and disturbing the peace, sworn
out by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Thorp. The
arrest grew out of a neighborhood row,
and Olsen threatens to retaliate with like
charges. - ■■

Judge Greene Wants Facts.
OAKLAND, Cal., Sept. 10.— The trial of
the damage suit of Daniel Ferguson
against the railroad company, was some
what delayed , to-day because of a little
brush between Judge Greene and Attor
ney J. M. Young. The attorney was re
ferring to the city ordinances regulating
the speed of trains, and the Judge thought
he should have proofs of their publication.
Young said he would get them, "if neces
sary." Tnis rather nettled the court and
Judge Greene, who said: "O' course it's
necessary; otherwise what is there to show
that it was) not published in the Klondike
Times"?

BOTH CLARAS ARE CHUMS
The Female Burglar Tenderly
Nurses the Girl Man-Killer
to Health.
Mrs. MoLellan Still Declines to Name
the Man Who Is the Mystery
in Her Case.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,)
903 Broadway, Sept. 10. J
Mrs. Clara WcLellan, the female burg
lar, now awaiting sentence in the County
Jail, has become a warm friend to Miss
Clars Failmer, the girl murderer, and lias
been pernii ted to become the latter*
nurse.
It was at Mrs. McLe lans own request
that she was allowed to share tne cell with
Clara Failmer, and she is now waiting on
her as devotedly as though she were her
mother. There is little fear of the girl
Dot recoverinc now, and the doctors de
clare tnat she will soon be well enough to
attract the attention of the District Attor
ney. A certain portion of the favorable
pr press made by the girl is due o the at
tention of Mr.'. McL*llan, whose iriend
ship is thus the means of speeding the
time when the slayer of Charles Ladue
shall be ttied for murder.
Mrs. McLeilan has strong hopes that
she will be granted a new trial. There is
undoubtedly much evidence that did not
come out at ber recent trial, though it is
not known why. Tne woman's stories
show plainly that she is between two tires,
.-«•• bas admitted her friendship for Man
uel Silveira, who she declares is responsi
ble for her present plight, but she will not
go further and tell of facts that would
save her from the charge of being a bur
glar, because it might reveal other circum
stances she is anxious to bide. There is a
strong opinion among the 'officials who
are iamiliar with the case thai neither
Joe lleniis nor the mythical Silveira
should be connected with the case, out a
man hitherto unmentioned, whose name
Airs. McLeilan will not divulge.

ON TIE DOCK'S
WRONG SIDE
A Deputy Sheriff Arrested
and Charged With
Vagrancy.
A Star- Wearing Watchman
Is Also Brought to
Court,
Town Marshal Lloyd Has a Lot of
Trouble Waiting for
Him.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call, )
908 Broadway, Sept. 10. . )
Two prisoners wearing police stars were
in the dock in Justice Gift's court to-aay.
One was Deputy Sheriff Brown, who was
charged with vagrancy, and the other
Watchman Brandes, with resisting an of
ficer. .
Both men were arrested by Marshal Lloyd
of Berkeley last night, and he kept them
till to-day in the Berkeley jail. Tbey
were the first occupants the jail has had
for many months, and one of them,
Brown, had a key with which he might
nave let himself out. But he did not
choose to do so, for he declares that Town
Marshal Lloyd shall yet pay heavily for
locking him up.
When Brown stood up before Judge Clift
to plead to vagrancy he exhibited his Dep
uty Sheriff's star and a $2000 bond which
he secured before appointment as evidence
that he was not a vagrant.
Brandes is a duly appointed special
watchman and also wears a star. He told
the Judge that it would be easy for him to
prove that he did not attempt to interfere
with Marshal Lloyd in the execution of
bis dmy, as he is one of tie most law
abiding citizens of Berkeley.
Now there is serious trouble on all
sides. Bot > men declare that their arrest
is spile work and that Marshal Lloyd did
not exactly know what he was doing when
he made the arrests.
"Before arresting me," said Brown,
"Lloyd met me and threatened to take
such action. Then he followed me and
told me I was under arrest as a vagrant."
Mr. Brandes is full of anger and says
that after arrest they were illegally treated.
'•Alter arrest," said Brandes, "we de
manded ihat Lloyd comply with the law
and take us to the nearest Justice so that
we might offer bail. Lloyd would not
listen to us, but instead put us in jail and
would not liberate us, although we offered
to hire a buggy and drive to Justice Gift,
in Oakland."
As Berkeley has no Justices now, every
body who is arrested is at the mercy of
the Marshal and it is doubtful if he can
be compelled to take prisoners to Oakland
from Berkeley.
Lloyd says he will have no difficulty in
proving that Brown is a vagrant and that
Branded attempted to interfere with him
in the performance of his duty.
The case is one of great interest, as all
manner oi points of law and jurisdiction
are involved. Justice Cliit released the
two men without bail till to-morrow morn
ing.

he'll have to do it, and that's all there is
about it."
Shortly after 8 o'clock Laviene, accom
panied by his brother Billy and a local
politician, came in and the articles v-ere
submitted to them. They met their ap
proval and were signed.
They can for a twenty-round contest
between the whirlwind fighters for 75 per
cent of the gross receipts, tbe fight to be
held in the Pavilion at a time to be speci
fied by the. club, in the latter part of Oc
tober or early in November. The articles
continuing read:
Eighty per cent to the winner of the said 75
per cent and 20 per cent to the loser of said 75
per cent.
The parties of the second part agree to weigh
135 pounds a: 6 P. m. on the day of the contest.
the contestant iai.lng to weigh in at 135
pounds shall forfeit to the other contestant 35
per cant of the gross receipts.
The articles were signed by Billy Lavigne
for Geor-re Lavigne; Thomas F. O'Rourke
lor Joe Walcott.
Some discussion arose as to tbe com
parative size of the two men. The follow
in ix figures were given. Those oi Waleott's
were submitted by O'Rourke, he stating
that they were made when the dusky lad
was in ring costume. Lavigne's are from
measurements taken by Young Mitchell
last nit.ht over Lavigne's street clothinar.

Walcott'.-* weight was given at i 135
pounds and Lavigne's at 136.
These figures make a remarkable show
ing. They would indicaie that the men
are alike as two peas, but from even a cas
ual glance at the two lighters their dissimi
larity is noticeable. Walcott is much more
stocky*, heavier of limb and body, although
Lavigne is a sturdy lad. The greatest dis
crepancy is in their weight. Walcott to
day is from. eight to ten pounds heavier.
The interesting point to be taken into
consiflera'ion in the coming fight is can
Walcott train down to 135 pounds at 6
o'clock on the night of the fight without
seriously injuring his vitality? Over
training is nearly as bad as no training
at all.
A good illustration of this truism is
found in studying the Burge-Lavigne
fight, which took place before the
National Sporting Ciub of London on
June 1, 1896, for the championship of the
world, 13d puutids, and a purse of £1000.
Burge was tie welter champion of Eng
land, and aspired to middle and heavy
weight honors. While not wishing to de
tract in the least Irom Lavigne's great
victory in knocking Burge out. in the
sevente nth round, there can be no ques
tion in the mind of the writer but Burge
weakened himself greaily in entering the
ring at 133 pounds.
At the meeting of the directors of the
Knickerbocker Athletic Club last night
Phil Wand was selected to referee the
Zeigler-Cunnolly and Elmer-Case contests.
