MISS MARIE PACKARD (Hi) and MRS HOMER LILY, formerly I'eUla Packard. 1 1 BUGK(fJGBRONCS BOOKED FOR BIG LfVERMORE RODEO (Contributed br Oakland PmneertKo. 40.) AROUJND TOW WITH TI1E BOYS IN KARLY DAYS (NO. 4.) OF MALBA.DT Bay, boys! Do you remember. Walters, the street peddler, and how he could aipg? You could hear him two blocks away when he would sing, "Sweet oranges, sweet oranges! a lump of sugar in the middle of each one of them, 6 and 10' els.

a dozen!" Sometimes he would have a load of honey in the comb, and would -sing "Honey in the comb! Bring out your money! Too good for the money! 5 and 10 cts. a comb!" Then again he would have a load of wild game, such as Mallard and Cah-vasback ducks at 20 cts. each, or a load of wild geese at 25 cts. each, or a load of peanuts at 5 cts. a quart.

He always was on the -street with something to sell. Weil, he got so that in time he was the owner of four houses; no you see that he surely did not lose anything on his street peddling Job. How about-the Willows on the west shore of Lake Merritt some place to go on a Sunday afternoon or moonlight night with your best girl well, I guess yes. There must be some of those best girls in town yet, and maybe if they should see this, they might sit up and take notice, and perhaps say, with a sign, "Oh, gee, those happy days will never come again. weeping willow!" How about the wooden awnings on the west side of Broadway, between Seventh and Twelfth street When it rained, did we get wetT Not so that you could notice Jt.

It used to be a great hang-out for tho boys of a rainy night, and there one could meet the other boy's best girl and find out what might happen in town or what did happen, for that was the only way to get the. news, you know. The girls never told anything only on Ihe Q. T. am I How about Brayton's cherry orchard? If I remember right, iet began at Grove and Twelfth and extended west.

At that time Twelfth street was not open west of Grove. Well, we boys would sometimes split up into three gangs and make a raid on the orchard. While the caretaker, old Temple by would be chasing one gang, the others would get their till of bherries, and we kept this up until all of the three gangs got their, fill of cherries; and sometimes we sure did keep him busy in that cherry orchard. And such cherries! "Oh me, bh my!" Yours ever. B1LLIE.

Births, Marriages and Deaths X- EFMIE' RAVAGES TOLD BY Thousand Beg for Food At Depots; Rows of New Graves Arc Seen. BERKELEY. May Thousands begging for i food greet tourists through the famine districts of China say Mrs. tlomer Lilly and her sister, Mi at. Mario Packard, who have Just ret urned from six months In the I Orient.

Emaciated face of young and old, children in rags and tatters line the railway stations from Hankow to Peking, they say. To add to the suffering, plague has broken out, and hundreds are dying not only from starvation but from disease us well. "When we were there they loaded 40,000 Chinese suffering; from plague on to a train and carried them out into the barren famine districts to die," says Miss Packard. "There was no food in sight and there was no salvation for those poor creatures. They had to be moved, of course, to keep the plague from spreading, but It all seemed so cruel and heartless." AMERICAN HElil'.

Julian Arnold, a graduate of the University of California, who is American commercial attache for China and Japan at Peking, is proving a leader in directing relief work, they report. "One thing which makes the, relief activities so haTd is the apathy of the rich Chinese," says MLss Packard. "The American Women's club wan -giving a benefit tea while we were there. Small donatioun of a pound of tea, a pound of suar and other similar things were asked of wealthy Chinese. The women were refused.

The wealthy refused to become aroused. 'A famine is good for China om in a they said. "Fur" miles along the railroiids refugees were lined begging for food lit every station. Children held their mouths open almoat unable to talk in tin ir agony. Money could do no trooil.

The stricken people are making de.sperato efforts to help themselves, but as fast us they plant their crops a wind storm comes up and blows their seed away. Consequently they are pouring Into the cities.

"Money whut the American people can -give, money that can 'be 'it bled as fust as possible. Supplies are not wuntvd. They take too long to gel there. The Americans In China are doing everything in their power to help these poor people, but funds are needed to help carry on the work." Mrs. l.iily left Herkeley tjixntontha afto Miss Fackard.

Flood danger Js threatening; the transportation "arteries of this dutriot as the crest of the Columbia and Lower Willamette rivers continues to climb to a dangerous stage.

At 5 o'clock Saturday the Willamette river at Portland stood at 19 feet with a predicted increase to 21.1 feet Monday morning, and a continued Increase during the week to the 25-foot stage. It is probable that the river will go even higher. All along the course of the Columbia river, the turbulent waters are tearing at the rail and highway embankments. Along the 8. P.

and S. railroad, both on the tipper and lower Columbia river, the flood watessj are lapping at dirt fills. On the O. WT. R.

a similar danger exists. At North Portland, the railroads and industrial firms are beginning -tod rerard the rising tide with much apprehension. Since "the great flood" In 1884, the industrial fills have been made and the Columbia channel has been considerably narrowed at that point. Kor the railroads, the primary danger exists at Kalama, where the Union rail system to Seattle flanks the Columbia river. At this point the flood water may cover the rails to such a depth that operation will be hindered and possibly halted altogether.

Basements all through the lower business section of Portland were beginning to show pools of water as a result of the seepage from the Willamette. Borne of the larger buildings east of Third street had pumps working to keep the water out of the engine rooms. Young Man Advised To Work in China Portland, May 21. "Go to China, young man." This, in effect, is the advice of Robert A. Ritchie, representative of the Canadian Steel corporation, who has returned from a three years' business tour in the Orient.

"China offers more opportunltlea for a live young man than any, other country I know of," he said. "There are countless numbers of commodities now scarcely known in the Far Kast that will ln time offer themselves as the basis of profitable trade. The possibilities of China have not been scratched and I predict that not in our lifetime will we see the country developed to even' a small fraction of Its producing capabilities" Ritchie told of the horror of the famine among the natives of the interior and stated it was far worse than anyone who had not seen it could imagine. Sunday Joyriding Is Barred By Church DUfjUTK, May 21.

Geography work lugged at Harrison school, The teacher tried to find what the students were interested In and she found they rather preferred their own district. The geography class began to map the district, where there are? warehouses and factories. The chil dren made personal investigations and saw the wheels go around.

They saw materials coming into the factories and wondered where the stun came from. This stimulated the natural inquisitivenesa arid the students began to take interest in the countries where the-raw products came from. A mattress factory proved that first-class stuffings me from Japan. A hemp factory drew materials from India. Japan and India came tinder the observation of the school.

Harrison school is gradually ne. quiring "the most profound knowledge of geography, manufacturing; and trade methods In the whole school department.

Robber Believed Trapped Is Identified by Clerk As San Diego Convict May 21. Twelve posses, composed of a hundred police and special officers, spread over an area of twelve miles on both ides of the American river, near here, were raking the underbrush' with rifle and pistol fire here tonlght'in an efrort to kill or rout a train robber, who late last night held up a Southern Pacific mail train, strangled a mail clerk and robbed the car of seven sacks of mail.

The bandit, who is seeking shelter somewhere in the underbrush along the banks of the river, and endeavoring to' throw the posses off his trial that he may make his getaway, has been identified by Ralph Decker, railway mall clerk victim of the holdup, as lioy Gardner, a desperado who has successfully evaded officers since his escspe after a siriiilar mail train robbery near San Diego sometime ago. DEPUTIES CSE GUNS. Ordered to "shoot on sight, and to shoot to kill," members of the posses retained their vigilance over tne area where the robber Is believed to be seeking cover, all day yesterday and up until late tonight. Several times detachments of men under charge of deputies or police officers, believed that thev had run on the trail of the bandit, but up until late last night the search had. been in vain.

Acting under orders, at intervals members of the searching parties would search the banks' of the river on both sides with rifle and pistol fire in hopes of driving ou the mail robber, he be seeking shelter in that vicinity. Shortly before dark tonight they were pressing in on a "tot near Fair-oaks, in which Ganger is believed to have taken refuge, in an effort te escape the hail of bullets which swept the countryside throughout the man-hunt. After darkness settled over the country the posses "carried on" and remained in their positions. They will press on towards the spot where the desperade Is thought to be hiding as soon as it is light; PICTURE IS IDENTIFIED. Decker, tho mall clerk, overpowered, by the bandit, after being Sacramento late today and wae shown a picture of Gardner.

"That's the man," he said without hesitation. Later, at a conference with agents of the Southern Pacifio and postal inspectors, Decker said: "I know tho man was Gardner now that I have been shown his picture." He declared that though the bandit who overpowered him wore a white mask, he saw enough of theman'e features to recognize him as Gardner. Sheriff Ellis Jones, who led the first posse to the man-hunt, stationed motorcycle riders tonight at intervals on all highways in the vicinity of Fairoaks and Roseville. The motorcyclists working with automobiles, containing heavily armed parties, were patroling all roads and highways between the city and the area where the robbery was committed. It is expected, officers said tonight, that the hiding bandit will be taken into custody by tomorrow noon, unless he has been killed by some of the rifle and pistol fire which was used tonight to rake the underbrush on the banks of the American river.
