FALCON AVENUE.
JoOSt's Latest Move Excites Artist
Robinson.

The Robinson controversy over
the laying of tracks for the San Mateo
Electric road on Falcon avenue is far from
ended. 1t was learned yesterday that Mr.
Joost had determined to claim that Falcon
avenue is not street by virtue of the fact
that all of the original surveys convey to
a center line, and not either to the eastery
or to the westerly line of the alleged street,
and consequently that the parties in oppo-
sition have no claim.
When Artist Ro binson was informed of
this his honest indignation knew no bonds.
"JOost." he said, sis constructing an indif-
fereDt road to my premises. He Is not
morally bound to do so, even though nv
title is secure through his abstract, which
places mine ana others lines on Falcon
street beyond doubt.
THE object of this move of Joost is to
close the n0rtherly line Of Falcon street
and erect in place thereof court having
It's terminal at or about the northerly line
Of my property, beginning at the southerly
entrance of Falcon street to be known as
Falcon court. and TO condemn the north
erly line OF property living adjacent to Fall
con street. Eagle street. etc, for the use OF
the San francisco and San Mateo Electric
Railroad Company with the consent Of
the principal prOperty-OwDers for the ben
eft of his line.
"Inasmuch as these streets have been
known 10 have an existence since 1867 this
Is IN the nature OF usurpation hardly 20

When the common geometrical spider
has made up its mind TO spin web, it
commences operations by inclosing GER
tain area with the foundation lines. To
these radiating lines are fixed, generally
about thirty in number, and all joining
in the center of the snare. When the
radii are finished the spinner proceeds
TO weave the concentric lines, stretching
them from one radiating thread TO an
other, and forming them of the silk
thickly studded with viscous drops.
Starting from the center Of the web
however, the first few concentric threads
are without this popularity, the reason
being that the spider likes to sometimes
sit in the middle of its web. and natural
ly does not care TO be incommoded with
the sticky matter which IL prepares for
the special benefit of its prey.
When the snare is finished, task
which often does not occupy more than
forty minutes in spite of the complicated
nature of the work, the spider weayes a
cell in some secluded spot close at hand,
connecting il with the center of the web

There lives at the big penitentiary ON
Church street family of dogs which are
rs interesting as any dogs in the state.
Some Of them belong to the officials con-
