A Lively saloon Trade in Washington
That Did Not Pay.
Muncl1 Davis Of Washington across
the-river is young man of free trade
notions, and he has a practical way of
demonstrating them.
For some time PAST the Duffy Bros,
who own saloon over there, have been
wondering where their stock of liquors
went TO. Business had not been over
brisk, but they found it necessary TO re-
plenish their stock very frequently.
On Tuesday night they discovered
where the leak was. Davis was detected
in the back room, and when he emerged
there was party of men ready to grab
him. lie at first eluded them and struck
out down the levee. As he turned OF at
the Buckingham grade, however, he fell
and WAS captured
After giving hiin pretty bad scare his
captors allowed him 10 go on his promise
to leave the place, and he climbed on the
first freight tram that came along and
vanished in the darkness.
The chase after Davis came near result
ing seriously TO some OF the party Of pur-
suers. William Henley, the we'll known
LAWYER OF Washington, was on his way
home from this city and had reached the
4olo end of the bridge just as the race
started He did not see the fugitive, but
he did see three or four men make sud
den break toward him.
Surprising them TO be footpads, he
whipped out his ''gun" and was on the
point of turning it loose on them when
he recognized tho men AID bloodshed
was ayerted.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
10 $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, Tor the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces l9nds from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, 10
land Of fair average quality and is offered at
from $1O-tO $40 per acre, III Subdivisions OF
40 so, 120, 100 and 500 acres.
Thc terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They Will be sold in
subdivisions. as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment OF
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part OF the prin-
cipal is 10 be paid tor three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which 10
pay five equal annual insallments. with il-
tcrest at the rate OF : per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period OF
eight years Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity TO purchase
land OF fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land ut prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
fands, suitable for general farming, and es-
peoially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had IN California for less than from $50 to
S1OO an acre. An examination of the lane
subject of this advertisement viii prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at SEQ
nu acre, and for qualities grading down 10 fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easyo Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body OF land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

WATER WORKS COAL,
The lone Coal and Iron Company
Awarded the Contract.

The lone Coal and Iron Company
Awarded the Contract.
In past years whenever the question of
Board of Trustees there was usually an
exciting wrangle among the coal men.
Last evening the matter was disposed of
in five minutes.
Mr.. Davis, Chairman of the Water Com
miltee, stated that, i'll response to adver-
tisements, three bids had been received.
The Goals offered by the bidders had been
tested under the boilers at the Water
Works. and the results were as follows:
lone coal (Miers mine) had evaporated
100000 pounds OF water for So IL, based
on bid of 81 30 per ton OF 1000 pounds.
lone coal tloue Coal and Iron Company
had evaporated 100000 pounds OF water
for $50 02, based on bid of 81 % per ton
OF 1900 pounds.
Franklin coal had evaporated 100, 900
pounds OF water for $50, based on a bid of
So % per long ton.
MIR. Davis stated that as the bid of the
lone Coal and Iron Company was the
lowest, the Water Committee advised
;hat it be accepted; also, that the offer of
that company TO deliver the coal for 81 75.
provided 1t was permitted to construct a
spur track into the Water Works. be
acted upon favorably by the board, as the
city would thus save 81, 400, rs against the
alternative bid of 81 SO.
Mr.. Treat, the Secretary of the COM
pany, stated that owing 10 hard times his
company had concluded that it could
only get the award by coming down TO
the lowest possible figure and had in
structed him accordingly. The difference
between the cost to the city for the COM
ing year as against that Just passed
would amount To $1,000. He asked that
as the company had had i check for
81. 500 up for year, on tue old contract. it
be returned. Mr.. Lawton dryly re-
marked that the check would be returned
on the signing of the new contract. That
would be time enough.

method of testing Goals, II. C. Wolf. the
Chief Engineer of the Water Works, ex-
planned the matter as follows:
1.-The idea is to get at what the coal will
do: how much water it will turn into
steam. We weigh all the water that goes
into the boiler by means of tanks of
known capacity. We weigh all the coal
and divide it into the quantity of water.
which gives us what is known as the
evaporation of water per pound of fuel:
multiply this by the cost of the fuel and
you know exactly its economic value.
In testing boilers for their steaming ca
pacity the testing is much more compli-
Gated, as it is important to know if they
make dry steam."
