The City Trustees held an adjourned execu.

day night. Thereafter they were as taciturn as
diyulee any of their doings, they dispersed
with an air of responsibility and mystery which
was ponderous. II is know known that The

Compe tition in Water supply Possible.
1t is generally understood that the Oakland
Water Company. which proposes TO supply Ala
medans win water al reduced rate cannot
extend their mains into this city without a
franchise from the City Trustees. This Is not
the case, as the law provides for competition
to prevent a monopoly, which the Trustees
could otherwise give 10 one company. One OF
our City Trustees explained TO IHE CALL cor
respondent that new company could readily
lay mains, the securing Of the requisite per-
mission OF the board being matter OF form

AN UNGRATEFUL CLIENT.
Judgment Against Mrs. Tufts, Now
Mrs. Sammy NOVEL;.


Mrs. Sammy NOVEL;.
Judge Powers yesterday took judg-
ment against Mrs. Samuel NOVEL;, for
merry Mrs Don Carlos Tufts, in Judge
McNally's court, for $3.50 for legal ser
vices rendered.
At the present term Of the Third dis
trict court she and MI. NOVEL;, her
present husband, were indicted on a
charge of adultery. Judge Powers de-
Tended and succeeded in getting the
jury to disagree. Then, apparently,
the prosecution dropped further pro-
ceedings. About this time Don G.
Tufts, the woman's Original husband
secured a divorce on the ground of his
wife's cruelty. it being shown that Mrs
T. had long filled life full of domestic
terrors for him while in her cups-and
she was ''in them" often. A few days
after her release from custody on the
adultery charge Mrs. Tufts and Mr..
Novel; made up their minds to wed,
and no time was lost in carrying that
intention into effect.
When the divorce was granted Mrs.
Tufts obtained a portion of real estate,
said to be worth about $4,000, and on
this she raised $500 almost Immediately
afterwards.
AT this time the lady was indebted
to Judge Powers in the modest sum Of
$3.50 for his skillful advocacy in her be-
half before the jury in the criminal
court, and when she and Mr.. Novel;
Ito use the judges own expression
went upon their bridal tour, she
promised faithfully to settle up on her
return" But she didn't keep her word.
She has lodged him around the corners
ever since, and so the judge was oblig-
ed to sue and take judgment for the
amount owing and S13 costs.
