CHINESE ATTEMPT
TO SEIZE CHILD
OAKLAJCD. Jan. 15.— A desperate at
tempt on the part of Horn Get and several
Chinese to snatch 4-year-old Ah Yoke
from the arms of Miss Donaldina Cam
pron as ehe was about to enter Judge
Wastes courtroom with the child this
afternoon created jcreat excitement at
the courthouse. Miss Cameron took
the child from Horn Get on January 11
as the result ol a 6earch conducted un
der her guidance by Captain Petersen
of the Oakland Police.
Miss Cameron claims that Horn Get
conducts' a Chinese brothel and that he
•wan raising Ah Yoke to become a slave
g-lrl, according to Oriental custom. The
girl was originally given into Horn
Get's custody by her father, Wong Pong
Lrong, who says her mother is dead
and that he is an Invalid and cannot
care for the child himself.
After Miss Cameron had herself ap
pointed temporary, guardian of the child
©n last Friday by Judge Harris, Horn
Get sued out a writ of habeas corpus
In Judge Waste's court, and it was
while Miss Cameron was about to take
Ah Yoke into his courtroom to attend
the habeas corpus proceedings today
that Horn Get and his friends tried
to sies* the little on».
Under Sheriff J. J. Hanifin rushed
from th«» Sheriff'e office and Attorney
E. S- Page hurried downstairs and with
a vigorous use of their fists put the
Chinese to flight.
Judge Waste was later informed of
the occurrence and warned Horn Get.
Hi« Honor denied the writ of habeas
corpus applied for by Horn Get on the
ground that the letter of temporary
puardi&r.ship secured by Miss Cameron
was regular upon Its face and that he
could not. go behind it in the present
proceedings.
LANGFORD SHERIFF
OF SANTA CLARA
SAN JOSE, Jan. 15.— Judge Welch
refused today to grant an Injunction
in the action brought by F. H. Ross
to restrain Arthur B. Langford from
assuming possession of the Sheriff's
p~«ce.
The temporary restraining order
which has kept Langford from the
possession of the office since last
Monday at noon, was dissolved and the
books and files and paraphernalia of
office were turned .over at once to
Langford "by his preflecessor.
The decision of Judge Welch was
lengrthy and proved a thorough and
romplcte exposition of the law. After
summing up all the circumstances
»nd conditions embraced in the ac
tion for an Injunction, he decided that
the claim of Langford, based on his
rertificate of election and his oath of
ifflce, was legally more binding than
:Ua.t of Ross, and he refused to fur
ther deny Langford the privileges of
:hf office.
When the decision was announced
attorney Howell D. Moore of Liang
ford's counsel made formal demand on
Elierift Ross for possession of the of
fiC**, and. a*tcr a brief consultation
v.i.h his counsel. Ross announced that
he would turn the office over without
further delay.

MINE WORKERS
INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 15. — The
eighteenth annual convention of the
United Mine Workers of America,
which opened here at 10 o'clock this
morning, devoted its entire time to the
right of delegates representing unions
that had failed to pay the extra strike
assessment of 50 cents a week to be
seated and to hearing the reports of
the general officers of the organiza
tion. The matter of seating the dele
gates was referred back to the cre
dentials committee, which did not ren
der a decision.
It developed thßt the national or
ganization had failed to replenish its
defense funds by levying an assess
ment of 50 cents a week against each
miner. The report of the credentials
committee showed that a large per
centage of the members had failed to
comply with the order, and the con
test over seating the delegates then
began.

mittee, at least half of the locals of
the three anthracite districts failed
to pay the strike assessment.
President Mitchell then submitted
his annual report. •He laid special
emphasis in his report to the decrease
in membership in the anthracite field,
and advocated putting a number of
organizers in that field, and spoke
of the apathy prevalent among, the
miners regarding their duties; to the
organization.,

STRIVING FOR BAY
TRAFFIC PLUM
Southern Pacific and Key
Route Both Keenly Alert
to ' Exploit the Field
BIG PLANS ; IN-- '.VIEW
OAKLAXD/Jan. 15.— That the South
ern Pacific Company is planning a sys
tem ,of suburban electric railways to
meet the, competition of the Key Route
appears from recent developments to
be a certainty. With the official con
firmation. byvE. E. Calvin, general man
ager of tho company, of the • report
of 'the changing from -steam to; elec
tricity of the Alameda, localllnes, there
has been "much speculation in business
circles as to the further moves of the
Harriman people on this side of the
bay. ' : ;"\u25a0-. ; ''. , r- : \u25a0 T. .. ...
On the. one hand is the Key Route,
which is slowly but surely developing
plans to extend its ferry system and
connecting railway along the-lines of
its original incorporation declaration.
For some time: agents of the. company
have been working on surveys which
indicate that the purpose is to extend
the Key Route along the base of the
foothill region, striking Frultvale. Sa»
Leandro and other points on a rout*
to the Garden City; that this line.will
be built to tap that large and rich terri
tory that for passenger and freight
traffic appears to be confirmed by recent
events. - . \u25a0
TO PARALLEL KEY ROUTE
- Not the least of these is the fact that
quietly there have been displayed
maps which ' show a main line for
freight/ and passenger service of the
San Francisco,- Oakland and San Jose
road stretching from a point near the
present Yerba Buena-avenue power
house" and paralleling the Fortieth
street branch of the Key Route ferry
system weir over, into lower Piedmont.
This parallel, is a short distance north
of Fortieth street. It is said to cut
through several -large tracts "owned by
the Realty Syndicate in that section of
the city. Out Frultvale way no secret
is made of the railway's apparent in
tentions. , Not a few realty. dealers are
openly asserting thatvarlous properties
border or are-:close to ; the. proposed
main line system.' • Reports come fre
quently from the eastern suburbs of
contemplated right of. way purchases
for the San Francisco, Oakland and' San
Jose road.
All of this bears upon possible and
probable Southern Pacific moves. One
of the most important suggestions in
this field concerns the Key
Route's ambitions to expand Its ser
vice. The Southern Pacific Company
is credited with having directed its
engineers to develop several new lines
in its Oakland service contingent upon
the proposed electrifying of its local
roads . in; this *city, as well as in Ala
meda. . The project includes, as has
heretofore been made public,* the paral
leling, of r the Twenty-second-street
branch of, the Key Route. with an elec
tric feeder! through Twentieth.street
and also the meeting of the proposed
main line northward;* by running.; an
other parallel across the northern out
skirts of the city. «t*~, , -\u25a0?-.;\u25a0
, STUD YIXG ' FORTY-FIFTH STREET
-Railroad gossip has fixed upon Forty
fifth street as the route whlch^the
Southern * Pacific Company Is studying
as a probable outlet for an electric
passenger line to catch the travel which
is becoming an important factor, as
that section of the city grows." While
many of these plans are, tentative, so
far as detail goes,- it is considered a
certainty that the Harriman represen
tatives are. working out a large project
of new railway moves which v have for
their purpose the holding of as much
of the suburban: truffle as . they can
reach. It is confidently expected by
those who are watching- developments
that by spring preliminaries will have
advanced far enough for public an
nouncement- of, important- suburban
railway, operations by. both ; the South
ern Pacific Company and the San Fran
cisco, Oakland and San Jose Railway.

Wears Out the Nerves.
Do you realize that pain is
weakening, and exhausts your
vitality? Don't you remember
how completely worn out you
felt after that last attack of
headache, neuralgia, backache, j
periodical or other spell of suf-.#*
fering? Nearly every case of
inflammation, apoplexy, paral-
ysis, epilepsy and insanity is
directly due to the weakening
influence of" pain upon the
brain nerves? For this reason
every one who suffers from
pain of any kind should not
fail to get relief as quickly as
possible."
You can >do this by taking
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills-
others do.
"I haye t used Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain
Pills for years, andean say they have
never 'failed. I always keep them in
the house. In fact I had rather be
without supar than the Pills. Pre-
vious to usins them J had always suf-
fered -with sick headache, : sometimes
toeing in bed for three and four days.
I had tried nearly everything I> evar
heard of; som? -would seera to help
at first, but a-'ter a,ahort time the
effect .would vpar off. It is five years
now since I began taking Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills, and tho results ar«
as good as at first."
