An Ell Dorado Husband Who Does

sstrank Myers, resident of Placer
vile, made purchase in Sacramento for
his wife last week, but it is not likely he
will soon be called on to make another.
Mrs. Myers wanted some yeast, and as
Myers was coming to the city she re-
quested him to purchase some and send
1t by the first train. Myers concluded
that it would be good thing TO lay in
supply, so he dropped into bakery aud
ordered 50 worth. The order surprised
the baker, but as the customer paid his
money for it he concluded the latter
knew what he wanted.
The next morning small barrel ar
rived at the Myers mansion and was
placed in the barn. The day was very
warm, the stuff began to ferment, and
then followed an explosion. When
Myers got home he had no barn, and his
friends have made his life miserable by
asking him what is the wholesale price of
yeast.

of them are being built with the safes
walled into the car and protected on the
sides by steel castings. They are intended,
of course, largely for through business.
General Manager Miller. OF the Chicago,

new cars provide absolute protection from

stand a desperate onslaught from dyna-
mite fends. Vice President Thomas, of
the Erie road, expressed the opinion that
the new Wells Fargo cars on his system
were as effective as any yet put into SER
vice.
On the New York Central the time-lock
safes have been in operation for some
time and Viee-President Webb in talking
about the matter remarked that the best
proofs that the Central express was pretty
well looked after lay in the small results
reaped by the train robbers in their recent
desperate attempts.

gold cars are being built which are in de-

money is shipped out of New York to
banks, and much more, of course, comes

will be constructed of steel plates one
quarter of an inch thick, strongly riveted
together. The floor, the top, the sides and
even the heavy door are to be made of
steel.
In these also the famous time locks will
be applied. These are now so attached as
to make it i'm possible for blows to stop the
movement. On the through express cars
to California they are adjusted to open at
two or three intermediate points, and only
the confidential agents at these places have
the combination. d.
