Santa Cruz was the first city in the State
to own it's own water works system. In
order to do so bonds to large amount
were issued, but this debt is eyened up to
the citizens by the extremely low rates
paid for pure, naturally filtered water
which comes from the mountain tops. To
San Franciscan the figures are absurdly
low. For house of four rooms so cents.
For each individual room 10 cents. For
use of one horse or COW 10 cents. including
water for vehicles and other stable use.
For each additional horse or cow cents
For irrigation in excess of 100 square yards
to each premises one-eighth of one cent
These figures are the monthly rate, and
should be source of satisfaction. The
rapid descent of the water from the noun
tains gives very heavy pressure for fire
extinguishing purposes.
Santa Cruz has the most important of all
improvements, a very com plete system of
sewerage. This was the first city on the
Pacific Coast outside of San Francisco, to
introduce the electric arc light system I'M
der municipal ownership. Incandescent
electric lights are in general use here for
house illumination. The electric light
and power company also own the gas
works, and are about to introduce here
new process for the production of electric
ity and power. Gas engines have been used
very successfully in Europe for the running
of electric plants. Manager Swanton has
determined to be in this forward move
ment, so has ordered two gas engines of
enormous horsepower from an Eastern
firm, which will be placed in running
order in about thirty days under strong
guarantee that they will accomplish every
thing that is promised. The output of the
gas plant will be increased to such an ex-
| tent that the company will be enabled to
make the gas cheaper, and can furnish it
to consumers for light and heat at a very
low rate, as there will be no waste, as all
surplus gas will be used to supply the gas
engines, which will produce the electricity.
The expenses of the company will be so
| reduced that it is expected the citizens will
reap the benefit in cheaper rates and more
excellent service. Santa Cruz will be the
| first city on the coast to inaugurate the new
process, the result of which will be watched
with interest. This was also the first city
of equal population in the State to con-
| struct an electric streetcar system.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, May 24-Among
the many sea-kissed counties along the
800 miles of shore line of wondrous Califor-
mia there is none more fair to look upon
than Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz has fifty
miles of shore, made up of long sandy
beaches, calm bays, where pleasure and
fishing boats glide, busy wharves, where
passenger and freight vessels touch, and
pictu rescue rock-bound points, where the
sea losses and foams forever.
Back from the shore, past the grazing
cattle ranges and fertile valleys, is the
Santa Cruz Mountains, out from which
rises flat-topped Ben Lomond and dark,
shadowy Iona Prieta, the latter rising
1000 feet above the sea. These mountains,
clothed with giant redwoods, red-trunked
madrona. elder and laurel, whisper secrets
of the long ago to all who will listen. They
tell of the early Spanish days when the
padres established their missions ada
cent to the historic and lovely bay
of Monterey; of the happy, prosper
Gus. romantic days, when the Spanish
cavaliers cantered over the plateaus. They
tell how the roses of CASTLE found bloom
ing in this far-away land by the Western
sea bound the hearts of these Spanish peo-
pie, as with rivets of steel, to this, the
country of their adoption. Only an adobe
house here and there, and remnants of the
fast-decaying missions, which are almost
entirely buried in the tangled ivy vines, is
left to remind us of this Spanish civiliza-
ton.
Great planing-mills are located in the
forests, cutting millions of feet of lumber
each year. Numerous limerick quarries
and kilns are being worked in the hills

The largest interests of this locality OF
the county are held by the +. A. Him
Company, who own about 5000 acres OF
land, 1000 acres of which are covered with
magnificent redwood forest. They en-
ploy hundreds of men at their different
planing-mills and lumber camps, from
which they ship millions of feet of redwood
and pine lumber each year. The largest
interest of this company is in real estate.
Farm property lying on foothill and in
valley and suburban residence property
around Santa Cruz, Capitola and Aptos is
sold by this company on such unique terms
that 1t is worthy of mention. as this firm
has been the means of adding many indus
trlous people to the population of Santa
Cruz County. The unique clause in the
deeds of this company is that after one
tenth of the purchase price is paid if the
purchaser should die the Him Company
bind themselves to make deed of the
property without further cost to the heirs
OF the deceased. This is rather after the
life insurance plan and has been taken
advantage of by quite large number dur
ing the last two years.
The little suburb of Capitola, with its
good bathing beach and fishing, five miles
east of Santa Cruz on the bay of Monterey,
is becoming quite summer resort. Many
cottages have been built and the fine new
Hotel Capitola, built right on the water s
edge, and the large new bathhouse will
make this charming nook of the bay a
favored resort, particularly when the
lovely drives along the Sequel Creek Can
yon to the Sulphur Springs are considered.
Santa Cruz County abounds in good
mountain roads, which are sprinkled DUR
ing the long rainless summer. The ro-
mantle drive through Sycamore Valley up
through the canyon, along the rapid MUIR
murlng San Lorenzo, with wild roses
among the bramble bushes, where the sun
glints through, and great variety of ferns
and shade-loving plants abound, climbing
vines wreathlng and interlacing the
trunks and branches of the trees and
swinging across the road from tree to tree
in graceful festoons to the grove of the
kingly sequoia is beautiful beyond de-
scription. Oh, the rest of all this vine
tangle! Tourists from all over the world
have taken this drive to the Santa Cruz
big trees, which is enhanced by the breath
of the salt sea sitting through the open
ings.
The extremely practical is found in this
San Lorenzo Canyon, about three miles
from Santa Cruz, where the California
Powder-mill, second largest in the United
States, is located. Since 1865 this mill has
been running under the management of
Bernard Peyton. Black, brown, giant and
smokeless powder in great quantities is the
output of this mill, which employs ninety
five men. w. c. Peyton, son of Bernard
Peyton, has made a success of smokeless
powder, and during the past two years the
smokeless powder from the California mill
has been the only powder accepted by the

Mrs. Mccain is one of the most enter

first thought into material shape. Colonel

thing arranged with extreme neatness and
taste. They have 10000 books, to which
patrons have access. Miss Waterman de-
clares in favor of this method of manage
ment, as the people read better books since
they have the privilege of looking them
over before choosing. All the leading
magazines and papers are on the reading
tables. The library is surely credit, and
should be the pride OF all Santa Cruz.
Santa Cruz now has four daily and three
weekly newspapers, which are great fac
tor in the life of the community. All are
working in harmony for the coming carni-
val and for the upbuilding of this charm
ing locality, which will some day be to
San Francisco what Newport is to New
York.
