Wanton Murder of n Chinaman,
SALINAS, Gala, Dec ll.--About 6
o'clock last evening two Californians en-
tered the cabin of All Din, Chinese
vegetable gardener on Jacks Landing,
across the Salinas river, five miles from
here, and asked for something to cat,
which was furnished by the Chinaman.
Having eaten, they asked for more, but
as there was no more to give them, they
were so informed, when they left the
house and, drawing pistols, fired through
the open door, killing All Din and
wounding two other Chinese occupants
of the cabin, They then beat hasty
retreat upon horses which must have
been hidden in the brush. The two men
wounded, after recovering from their
fright, gave the alarm in the neighbor-
hood and this morning officers are inves.
tigating at the scene of the murder, but
it is doubtful from the clue obtained so
far, whether the perpetrators OF the
crime can be traced.

The New Time Adopted by Most OF tho
Railroads OF the Country at Noon on
November tS-Oniy Five Instead OF las
Formerly Iifiy-thrcc Kinds of Time
The Arrangement in Divlsions-Thc
Difference Calculated for Many Cities.
We are indebted To the courtesy of
the Chicago Tribune for the map given
below, explaining the standard time
which has been adopted by the railroads
O! the North American Continent. In
connection with the map the Tribune
also published the table given below.
showing the difference between the new
time and the local or solar time of the
leading cities of the country.
a change in time, says the Tribune,
somewhat similar TO that which is now
effected in America, was brought about
in England as long ago as January -.
1913, and a reform could no longer be
delayed in this country owing TO the
complications arising under the old
diSpensation. 1t may not be generally
known that the railroads of this country
have been conducted of late years UNI
der iiftY-three different kinds of time,
the difference between the times being
very slight in some instances, but
enough TO make people miss trains
repeatedly, besides causing other incon-
Venience

The several meridians are indicated
upon the map, as well as the territory
included in the different divisions. The
irregularity in the boundaries is caused
by the various roads wishing 10 adopt
as their standard the time OF the merid-
ian nearest TO which the greater num-
Der of their lines are situated.
VALUE OF THE TABLE.
IL may be stated that many of the
towns in Illinois and Iowa are run on
Chicago time, which the railroads run
ming from this city introduced. The
tables herewith printed show the differ
ence between the solar time Of those
towns and the standard time. This ex-
PLANTATION may prevent the towns in
question from confounding the Chicago
time, which they now use, with their
solar time.
THE ORIGINAL SUGGESTIONS.
The country is indebted 90 two citi-
zens of New York for the original sug-
gestiOns leading up TO this important
innovation. The idea occurred to Prof.
Cleveland Able, of the Signal Bureau
nj Washington, and his plans were elab-
Grated by DR.. +. A. p. Barnard, of Co
lumbia College. Prof. Able proposed
his plan as early as 1873, at a meeting
of the American Meteorological Society.
IL is unnecessary 10 review the many
discarded suggestions made from time
