THE SAN PRAjSTCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1897.
BERKELEY IS
INFESTED.
Three Burglaries in a Single
Night in the College
Town.
Berkeleyans Alarmed at the Recent
Numerous Attempts at Theft
and Arson.
BERKELEY, Dec. 18.— Three burg
laries were attempted in different
parts of Berkeley last night, and citi
zens of the college town are becoming
so alarmed at the numerous attempts
at theft and arson that have occurred
recently that there is talk of organiz
ing a "Law and Order" league to as
sist Marshal Lloyd in driving out dis
reputable characters.
About G o'clock last evening Mrs.
Jensen of Tenth street and Allston
way sent her little daughter to a
neighbor's on an errand. When the
little girl returned she found a man
standing in the drawing-room. In the
dim light the child mistook the man
for her mother, and took hold of his
coat, at the same time calling
"mamma." This frightened the in
truder and he hastily fled. Mrs. Jen
sen! however, who had started from
the barn to the house when she
heard the child call, had seen the
man as he walked away, and from
her description it is believed that the
would-be burglar is the same as the
man who tried to enter the residence
of L. Borkheim on Bancroft way the
night before.
Two attempts were also made to
burglarize the residence of R. A. Cur
ry at 2033 Berkeley way last night.
On both occasions the burglar was
frightened away. This morning, how
ever, Mr. Curry found that a side win
dow had been cut with a diamond.
A successful attempt was made by
a burglar at North Berkeley last night
at the residence of Mr. Bateman on
Walnut street. The thief only suc
ceeded in getting away with a pair of
shoes and a blacking brush.
The Arrival of a Distinguished
Physician.
Medical circles in our city have been
discussing the arrival in San Fran
cisco of Dr. V. Condory, who for thirty
years past has been practicing at Hot
Springs, Ark.
Dr. Condory has been stopping tem
porarily at the Palace Hotel since his
arrival, but will shortly secure perma
nent and elegant offices equipped with
all modern conveniences for the prac
tice of his specialty of dermology.
The doctor has treated some of the
most substantial of our business men
in Hot Springs, Ark., as well as in
California, and it is at the urgent re
quest of many of his patients that he
has determined to reside permanently
on the Pacific Coast. Being a gradu
ate of the University of Vienna and
an assistant of the late famous Pro
fessor Ricord of Paris, Dr. Condory is
regarded as a most acceptable addi
tion to our medical and social circles.
Although the doctor has only been in
San Francisco about three weeks, his
arrival and purpose of practicing in
our city have become known to many
of .air best people, who are more than
pleased to know that in a short time
Dr. Condory will have established
himself in offices that will enable him
to receive and treat his friends and
patients in a manner befitting a mod
ern high-class physician.
Messrs. Carroll & Tilton.
Chief among the dealers in gentle
men's and boys' clothing in San Fran
cisco is the reliable firm of Carroll &
Tilton at 811 Market street. This con
cern has been engaged in this branch
of trade for many years, and its repu
tation In mercantile circles and with
the general public is the best. The
firm is composed of W. H. Tilton and
James Carroll.
In addition to the handling of cloth
ing, the firm carries a splendid stock
of furnishing goods, hats, caps, trunks
and valises. The equipment of the
store is of a superior quality, and the
staff of courteous attendants insures
prompt and satisfactory service. The
firm enjoys a large and profitable
trade, due in a great measure to the
wise and conservative methods of the
management.
Walcjeck Sanatorium.
The Waldeek Sanatorium at 717
Jones street is one of the very best
institutions of its kind on the Pacific
Coast. The institution was incor
porated in 1894, and has since won a
recognized place among private hotels
where invalids may have the advan
tages of every modern aid in the treat
ment of non-contagious troubles. The
building now occupied was erected by
Dr. M. Hertzstein, who is a member
of the incorporation, find is especially
adapted for the purpose to which it is
devoted. Among its special features
are a solarium, where convalescents
may have sun baths, a roof garden
where, in fine weather, they may have
fresh air. The tables and fixtures are
in white enamel, brass and plate
glass. The house is conducted by an
association of physicians, aided by
competent assistants and a corps of
trained nurses. The facilities for the
care of patients are unsurpassed.

SINGS CALIFORNIA'S PRAISES.
Miss Kate Thomas, a gifted native
daughter of California, is the author of
a recently published novel entitled
"Aila," dealing with scenes and inci
dents of life by the Balboa Sea. The
young lady exhibits a happy familiarity
with the early history of the Golden
State, and throughout the volume avails
herself of every opportunity to sing the
glories of our matchless climate, our
eye-compelling scenery, our soil so mar
velously rich and our trees and vines so
prolific Aila , is a high-minded Cali-
Miss Kate Thomas.
fornla girl, to whose keen perception Is
due the uncovering of the designs of her
stepmother, a fascinating but unscru
pulous woman, whose secret machina
tions would have wrecked the family and
buried its name in disgrace. Hypnotism
plays a part in the story, and two ro
mantic love affairs run through the
pages and conclude in a manerthat will
meet with the reader's approval. Wil
liam Doxey is the publisher of "Aila,"
and the book is prettily bound in scarlet
and white cloth covers. Talented, re
lined and as modest as she is accom
plished, Miss Thomas Is a favorite in San
Francisco society circles, wherein she is
admired for charm of conversation and
beauty of character. She was educated
in California schools, and that State
pride is one of her strong characteristics
is everywhere evident in her initial liter
ary work.

NOT A PUBLIC RECORD.
The Charge Agairjst A. J. Raiser;,
Coo tractor, Is Dismissed.
The charge against A. J. Palsch, con
tractor, of stealing and altering a con
tract from the office of the Superin
tendent of Streets, was dismissed by
Judge Low yesterday morning.
The argument of Attorneys Dunn
and McPike, for the defendant, that
a copy of a private contract, even
though filed in the office of the Super
intendent, could not by any possibility
be construed as a public record in ac
cordance with the meaning of the
statute, was sustained by the Judge.
Superintendent Ambrose, as a result
of the decision, will permit no more
street work to be done by private con
tract, but it must be done under the
supervision of the Street Department.
Any contractor in future attempting
to do work on the streets by private
contract will be arrested as a tres
passer.
THE BANK WON.

Properto Ordered Sold.

Francisco Bank against Edgar A. Cohen
as trustee of the trusts* created by deed
of trust, executed to the plaintiff by
May Ij. Gould and Eugene Gould, her

Morrow yesterday granted the prayer of
the plaintiff and made an order remov
ing Edgar A. Cohen as trustee and or
dered sold the property named in the
trust deed to pay three notes aggregat
ing $70,500.
It was alleged in the petition that

Special Dispatch to The Call.
SANTA ROSA, Dec. 18.— This has
been a busy, day for the ladies of
Santa Rosa. To-night many of
them are "just ready to drop," as a
prominent society belle laughingly put
it while . relating her experiences this
evening, but the fact that the results
of their labors are to be devoted to the
cause of charity and to providing a
merry Christmas for the poor of the
city amply repays them, no doubt.
Though tired, they are a happy lot
over the outcome of the day's work.
Last week the Press Democrat,
which has just fitted up elegant new
quarters and is ready to aid any good
cause, announced that it would turn
the entire office over to the ladies to
day and allow them to, devote its pro
ceeds from Sunday morning's paper
to the poor and destitute.
The novelty and generosity of the
proposition attracted much attention,
and the ladies responded with alacrity.
Mrs. T. J. Geary was made managing
editor, Mrs. John P. Overton city edi
tor, and Mrs. James W. Oates busi
ness manager. A meeting was held
and the entire staff soon named, after
which the ladies of the business de
partment immediately laid their plans
as to the best way to land the festive
"ad" and to secure the remunerative
"write-up."
Orders were also taken for extra
copies of the paper, and even before
the ladies took charge of the office this
morning a good business had been
booked.
The first active work of the day be
gan at 5:55, when Miss Bess Riley and
Miss Lulu Leppo, two of this city's
most prominent society girls, "did" the
early Donahue train which leaves at
that hour for San Francisco. A num
ber of important personals were se
cured, after which the two fair re
porters started at once for the South
ern Pacific depot, from which a train
left at 6:05. From then on until mid
night pretty girls with notebooks that
harmonized in color with their gowns
darted in and out all over town chas
ing the elusive item and interviewing
its prominent citizens upon all sorts of
subjects.
A reported murder was fully inves
tigated and both the police courts were
closely watched from early morn to
dusky eve. A prisoner confined In the
County Jail was interviewed and a re
porter was kept busy all day long in
both departments of the Superior
Court, A baseball game at Cycling
Park was written up in rattling style
by the sporting editor, while the edi
torial writers and Mrs. G. O. Richards,
the telegraph editor, worked far into
the night.
The ladies had complete control of
every department and ran things to
suit themselves, none of the regular
staff being present. Saturday being
payday, the ladles had the additional
work of making up the payroll for the
twenty-three people employed in the
office, the funds for which had been
left in the safe by the regular man
agement.
When the books were balanced at
the end of the day's business it was
found that the ladies were ahead over
$500 as the result of their good man
agement, and the Christmas of many
a poor unfortunate in the city will be
made happy thereby. The paper,
which will make its appearance in the
morning, will be a handsome sheet of
eight pages, well filled with local and
telegraphic news, some of which is
handled in a truly original style. The
City Council is warmly "roasted" in an
article on the editorial page for failing
to pass an anti-expectoration ordi
nance, and the carriers on their morn
ing rounds are being anxiously
awaited by a deeply interested client
age.
Following is the complete staff:

in making a selection of a
lounging robe for a gentle-
man. He'll more than ap-
preciate it. These at
