H. Spring in Berkeley What promises in a few months to be a brilliant spot of color, visible from the Golden gate to the far end of the bay and in a few years will undoubt edly will be one of the features and show places of California, is the home site of John H. Spring, the local capi talist, .situated in the Berkeley hills, on which he is laying out a beautiful park and will later erect a magnificent man sion. Spring is the owner of 1,000 acres of land in Alameda county, 21 of which he has set aside for his personal use, and this is the tract he proposes prac tically turning into a wonderland over night. Mark Daniels, a University of California graduate, has planned - the i landscape gardening, and already-car loads of hydrangeas, ' roses, rhododen- ! drons, orchids and every other kind of j flower that can be mentioned have ar rived. These will be planted in vast beds on the sides of the sloping hills so that the colors will be noticeable IJTom every part of the bay. ; A large orchid conservatory, one of 1 the biggest on the coast, is under con-! struction. Over the rocks and boulders, which abound in the country, wild gooseberry arid grapevines will be planted so as to lose not one inch of the natural scenic advantages. A large swimming pool is in process of construction, and cataracts and waterfalls, rare trees "and shrubs, brought from near and far, together with the natural oaks already, dotting the landscape, will add to the beauty of the scene. For the Japanese garden, which will cover more than an acre, shiploads of Japanese trees and bushes have been brought from Japan. Hybrid rhodo dendrons by the carload have; arrived from Belgium and a shipment of dwarf fruit trees to cover an acre hay« come from France. None : of these trees is over five feet in height and they'are in all kinds of grotesque shapes. They have all arrived : fruit * laden 'and will shortly be set in place.' This orchard will be only the second of its kind -in the United States, the other belonging to a Utah millionaire.* Since work was begun' on Spring's property 15,000 trees have been. brought from other parts of the country and laid out and almost as many- more are coming, among them, being, the two largest Phoenix -palms' procurable .in California. , . - FRIEND BELIEVES MISS < DE LAVEAGA WAS SANE Mrs. Cpwley-CaiToll Concludes Testimony in Contest That Maria Conception de Laveaga was of . sound -mind was v: the : opinion expressed: on the" witness stand yester day by Mrs, -Hubert: Cowley-Carroll of Ross, Marin county,: in. the trial of the contest of Maria's: will instituted, by Miguel 'de; Laveaga, her. brother. > Mrs. Carroll' knew the testatrix for, many years." „;. . \u0084..\u25a0,.'" : \u25a0 " : .
