MRS. DORsEY,S BENEFIT.
4 Large Audience and a Splen-
did Programme.

\ Large AuO1ence anu u SpIcH
did Programme.
The testimonial of the citizens
of Carson to Mrs. Dorsey drew a
large audience at the Opera House
last evening.
The programme was a delightful
culling Of some of the rarest must
cal flowers and rendered supurbly,
both in the matter of taste and
art.
There were many among the list
of performers who have charmed
the people of this city time and
time again and to these it is not
necessary to refer except to remark
of the general excellence of their
work.
Among those who had not be-
fore appeared before a Carson au-
dience was Miss Henrietta Olco-
vich. Her rendition of Beethoven's
Moonlight Sonata" was finished
piece of work, showing the very
best of technical instruction, and
her "Inyitation to the Waltz" was
played with all the dash and sport
the music called for.
Mrs. Blumenthals singing de-
lighted the audience, and her duet
with W. G. johnson was one of the
gems of the evening. Mr.. johnson s
voice is a particularly rich and
sympathetic baritone. 1t is safe to
say that Carson audience never
more thoroughly enjoyed an even
ing's entertainment than that OF
last night. There was not poor
voice or selection in the lot.

THE DISPUTED HOSE.
1t is Finally Accented BY the
City.


another long wrangle in the Board OF
City Trustees. relative to the Eu
reka Hose furnished the city by
Muller. Schmitt & Co.
When the bill was called up
Chairman Kennedy asked Mr.
Muller if his firm was willing to
give the city an indemnifying
bond to square the expenses Of any
law suit it might have on its hands.
Mr.. Muller said that the Eureka
Hose Co. had guaranteed the hose
to be first class. Mr.. Kennedy re-
piled that the question of the gen.
uineness Of the hose was not an Is
sue but the right of sale in certain
territory.
Mr.. Muller said he was not will
ling to give such a bond for reasons
best known to himself.
The District Attorney called at
tention to the fact that the city
was not dealing with the eastern
company, but with Muller, Schmitt
& Co.
Mr.. Muller still refused to give
the required bond.
District Attorney Torreyson-
Mr.. Muller, was it not understood
that you were to turn the hose over
to the city at cost, plus the
freight?
Mr.. Muller--You only get such
ideas from hearsay.
Torreyson-Exactly for I heard
you say it myself and the other
members of the Board also heard it.
Mr.. Bryson-I understand that
$1.15 was the costin Chicago.
Bray did l.
Muller-You all misunderstood
me, said I would throw off the
cash discount.
Torreyson-Mr. Muller what did
the hose cost you in Chicago.
Muller-I don't consider that
anybody's business.
Torreyson-Did you think as a
City Trustee you had any right to
make a profit out of the City
Muller-I am making no profit
Individually. The profit is made
by Muller Schmitt & Co.
Torreyson-Why could not the
Board have ordered this hose and
make the profit.
Muller-They didn't order and l
have documents and guarantees
that the hose is genuine.
A discussion of this kind was
kept up between Muller and the
Board for couple of hours.
Then Attorney Judge appeared
and cited authorities to show that
no suit could lie against the city
and then admitted that if one did
so lie the city could recover from
Muller, Schmitt & Co.
Mr.: Bryson asked if he was not
under the circumstances willing to
put in the hose to the City at cost
Mr. Muller refused saying he had
rather make it a present.
The bill was finally ordered paid,
all voting in the affirmative, with
the understanding that nothing
should be done with the hose for
the present, and the Board would
see what action Rail would take in
the matter.

BEST BAKING POWDER.

Interesting Tests Ezade by the

DR.. Edward G.. Love, the pres
ent Analytical Chemist for the

some interesting experiments as to
the comparative value Of baking

made to- determine what brands
are the most economical to use, and
as their capacity lies in their leav-
ening power, tests were directed
solely to ascertain the available gas

The vulture stood silent on the be

their perches. Then the condor, who
had been sitting on the highest branch
of all, gave vent to a shrek almost as
deafening rs the whistle Of q locomo-
