Rumor will not down, however, that Bowes and his bride are in seclusion in Tacoma. Servants at the millionaire's home there deny to newspaper men and callers that the sought-for man and wife are spending a quiet honeymoon within the walls of their own mansion.

It is said that a hurrying automobile occupied by a man who looked like Bowes and a woman with classic features, much after the style of certain magazine portraits, was seen to draw up at the Bowes home in Tacoma.

SACRAMFNTO. Nov. 17. A case that Is puzzling physicians and nurses alike is that of pretty MJss Sarah Cole of Oroville. aged 22 ears, who, although b'ing near death at her room in this ciy, has been refused money and aid by her two brothers at Thompsons Flatt, Jufit across the Feather river from Oroville.

A request for assistance has brought forth the startling reply that she is only feigning sickness in order to force them to pay her bills, and that she has been in a habit of doing this. IS STARVING SELF'. Whether there is anything In the charge of the relatives or not, the physicians are having great difficulty In keping the girl alive, as she is slowly "tarvinjc herself to death. For more than a weeK she has not touched food, and she refuses to take any kind of nourishment. In her weakened condition she Jmargines she is a rauper, and thinks to receive food would be accepting alms.

HEIR TO LARGE ESTATE. Two nurses have had charge of Miss Cole for several days, and she is attended by Dr. A. F. Higgins, who says he lias sent repeated messages to her relatives at Oroville, but received no answer.

He says: "This is the most peculiar ease I have ever seen. The young woman, I understand, is one of the heirs to a large estate in Butte county and has three or four brothers. Her mother and father are dead. She is well educated, is refined and a lonely She is slowly starving to death, her mind is failing and if her condition, made possible by reason of the downright cruelty of her relatives, is not' changed speedily she will die. TRICK, DECLARES RELATIVE.

Mrs. Cole, a sister-in-law of the girl, was communicated with today at Oroville and made the following startling i statement: "If she -n ill come to Oroville and enter a hospital we will take care of her, but she has plaryed this game before and her brothers are about Urad of it. Tell her to eat something and she will be all right. This Is an old trick of hers. Wnenever she wants any new clothes she goes away, purchases them and charges them to her brothers.

Then she conveniently gets sick st a hotel and sends word home for her relatives to come -and pay her bills. "There will be nothing doing this time. Her trick is to refuse to take food. I do not believe that the is sick now. I think she is faking." Miss Cole formerly worked in the Oroville telephone office and was a great favorite.

That is, if annexation had depended upon a two-thirds yob as the authorization of bonds by the city the day previous depended, the majority for annexation given in the 'district annexed ample to leave a big- margin to the good. FRUITVALE SAFE. In the Frultvale district where the battle was most bitterly waged against annexation, in every precinct except two. the.

result showed that the people stood two to one in favor of annexation. Precinct five in Frultvale was the stronghold of opposition, but even there a majority of two was cast for annexation out of a total vote of 258. In Melrose, Fitclburg and Elmhurst, Hi" majority for annexation was virtually three to one. THE NEW OAKLAND. Through the action taken at the polls yesterday, Oakland covers today an area of CO.

70 square miles; lias a population fairly approximating 300,000: possesses a water front susceptible of improvement for the uses of commerce of twenty-seven miles in length; has control over the land-locked basin embraced in San Lrandro hay, and of ail of the tidelands bflow ordinary high tide- line lying on Its northern and eastern shores. Xo city on tthe Pacific Coast has, up to date not even Hos Angeles made through yesterday's election such vast and rapid strides in the march of progress toward a higher and more important position as great commercial and manufacturing Center one which will ultimately be second to none other on the Pacific Coast. Today Oakland is virtually the second city in slzo and importance, present and prospective, on the Pacific Coast. In the city proper S093 votes were cast, 'r two thousand of the number voting at the" bond election the day previous. The eight, hundred opponents to bonds at Monday's election dwindled to measly It'O when It came to the test on annexation.

NEW BLOOD IS HERE. The big vote cast and the small minority rc pri-sented In the opposition are indicative of the unanimity of Oakland's citizens for the carrying: out of the great destiny awaiting: It. It was a unanimous declaration at tho noils that the time had come -for Oakland to claim its own and to redeem itself from the blight which timidity and siluriunism had placed upon it. It demonstrated conclusively that new Mood is couismtr through the- veins of the community influenced by a spirit of progress inspired by an Indomitable mi.r isr and totally unaXraid frr 59umini; r.ew obligations and greater responsihilit it s.
