ONLY FIFTEEN CENTS AN HOUR.
The Cost of Running HOskins'
Street Car Motor.
It Makes a Trial Trip With I'm
questionable Success.
Il Is an Electric vapor Machine, the
Invention OF q Resident of This
City, and it Works to
Perfe ction.

A number OF prominent business
and professional men, and couple OF
reporters met yesterday evening for the
purpose OF taking trial trip on the new
electro-vapor motor, the invention Of T..
B. Hoskina.
A number OF contradictory reports had
been circulated concerning the ability of
the machine to make good time, and it
was with certain amount OF incredul-
ity that the party boarded the car.
The trip was complete success.
Starting with steady, even motion,
the car made its way down Spring street
as far as Ninth street at speed Of about
10 miles an hour, considerably faster, by
the way, than the speed attained by the
cable car, and fully as fast as the ordi-
nary pace of an electric,
Although those invited had attended
in the capacity OF critics, nothing could
be found needing adverse mention
There was no unpleasant iolting or noise
and the most captious could have found
nothing to find fault with.
On reaching Ninth street the motor
man reversed the car and the journey to
Fifth street was made in the same de-
lightfully easy manner.
The working cost of Mr.. Hoskins'
motor is Is cents an hour.
No expensive machinery or costly
power house is needed and the car Can
be run anywhere where rails can bs
placed for it's accommodation.
The coet of running is less than one.
third that OF either electric or cable cars
No turntable is needed, the car run.
ming equally we'll either way, and de.
pending solely upon reverse of the
motor.
With load of about 20 people, the
distance between Fifth and Ninth
streets was made in as fast time as could
have been performed by an electric car,
the power used on the trip being only
six horse power.
Mr.. Hoskins declares that 40 could
have made the journey as easily as 20.
The motor is self-contained, requiring
neither overhead or underground wires,
conduits or central power stations.
The motive power is obtained from
an admixture Of vapVr from oil, gaseo-
line or naptha, made explosive by pro-
portion OF air.
An electric spark causes an explosion
which acts upon a piston. The trans.
mission of this power to the car axle is
one of the salient features of the motor,
and is accomplished by system of fric-
tional gearing which etarts the car while
the engine is in motion, and also varies
the speed and reverses the car.
Without repienishing car can carry
sufficient stored energy to run for "a
hours.
There appeared to those who wit
messed the performance last night no
doubt either OF the running of the new
motor or of its monetary value to the
inventor.

AR. sTRADIEY DEFENDS THE CHURCHES.
Rev. W. b. stradIey OF Trinity Metho-
dist church, then spoke briefly. He
agreed with the views advanced by DR..
Widney. He would, however, amend
Mr.. Howardls motion 80 as TO have the

Piled that the churches were always

MIR. REED AGAIN.
Mr.. Reed again spoke and said he had
advised the Chinese members of his
church to register. He again declared
the Geary act to be unconstitutional.
LITTLE MANS POINT.
A little man in the rear of the room
then arose and asked Mr.. Reed why !!
the supreme court had declared the law
to be constitutional.
Mr.. Reed said that there had been q
minority vote on the question also.
Mr.. Reed then sat down amid great
laughter and applause.
MR.. BREsEE AND THE VOTE.
Mr.. Bresee then proceeded to put the
question to q vote.
"All these in favor Of this petition
please rise." he said.
The majority of those in the front
part OF the church arose amid hisses
and jeers from those in the rear.
"All those opposed rise," whereupon
everybody in the rear of the room arose
as a unit, including the Chinese.
Mr.. Bresee looked them over and
finally said, "Well, have not counted
the vote 30 you will have to settle that
for yourselves" The crowd laughed
heartily and applauded Mr.. Bresee's
remarks and after short prayer the
meeting was declared adjourned. The
crowd, however, assembled on the
street by the church and proceeded to
have another meeting in which all
agreed that John Chinaman must 60.

TWO Ell MONTE OFFICERS.

Their Adventures with q Prisoner, a
Halter and Host.
Two deputy eheritfs from Ell Monte
arrived in Los Angeles yesterday in
search of a thief, who is wanted ior
stealing watch and $50 in money.
1t was great opportunity for the
men from Ell Monte, and they started
out to show the Los Angeles fellows how
the thing ought to be done.
They hunted around for o short time,
and, meeting their quarry on the street,
ran him in.
Then. realizing that they deserved q
little amusement after 80 much hard
work, they determined to seek relief in
seeing the sights OF the town.
With their prisoner with them they
promenaded the, streets. and alec, it is
rumored, visited sundry soda water
fountains, until bewildered by go much
life and the unwonted excitement, they
lost track OF their prisoner.
1t was a hard blow, but visiting an
other soda fountain they braced them
selves together and set out on the Sec
ond hunt.

But mine host wanted his money .or
the lost halter, which went with the
vanished criminal, and he said that un-
less it was forthcoming they could walk
back to the land whence they came.
The soda water fountains and other
metropolitan allurements had proved
too much for the purses OF the Ell Monte
officials, and in vulgar parlance they
were "broke."
In vain they pleaded that to walk
back to Ell Monte without prisoner or
the price of drink would be to sub
ject themselves to the jeers OF a rude
and unfeeling populace. The landlord
was obdurate and the last heard of the
deputy sheriffs from El Monte was

The First Measure of Time.

It was the moon and not the sun which
first suggested to mankind the circle Of the
year as a measure of time. The sun exhib-
its no changes of appearance, and his light
obliterates all the landmarks Of the sky. A
luminary which is the same yesterday, to-
day and tomorrow might give rise to con-
ceptions Of perfection and eternity, but be
yond the alterations of day and night it
could suggest TO mems minds no abstract
measure Of time. But with our humble
satellite it is far otherwise. The regularly
recurring phenomena Of new moon and full
moon are too marked TO escape the atten-
ton of the most obtuse and unrelecting Of
savages.
The motion Of the sun may be compared
to that Of the minute hand Of a clock,
sweeping on hour after hour without leav-
ing much record of its comparatively vast
Journey; the progress Of the moon, on the
contrary, may be hkened to that Of the
hour hand, which registers the movements
Of its companion, and resolves them into
twelve well defined periods.-Gentleman's

EARLY NEWS SUMMARY.
National.

The publication of dispatches announc-
ing that there was hidden significance
in the extradition treaties recently rati-
fed by the United States Senate with
Russia and France, a sort of triple al
lance between the countries, caused
some comment and Senator Chandler
said that while there was no definite
understanding as reported, still, the
powers were on very friendly terms and
he advocated still closer relations.
Senator Sherman in an interview said
that the resolution he introduced in the
Senate was intended merely to save
money to the general government, by
providing for the issuance OF bonds at 3
per cent, if found necessary, instead of
at higher rates of interest.
The nomination of Judge Jackson for
the Supreme Bench will not be confn med
by the Senate until it is too late to ap
point his successor in the Circuit Court,
The appropriation bills will engage the
attention of Congress almost exclusively
until the 4th of March. Only one. the
Army bill, has become a law. In the
Senate the Nicaragua bill and Mr.. Sh sr-
mans amendment may delay matters
The Washington Post said in an article
that Judge Gresham. when first offered
the Secretaryship of State in Mr. Cleve.

induced to accept after considerable
pressure had been brought to bear on
him.
