Waterworks Bothering EN-.

Salina is having regular parrot
and monkey time with its waterworks
company. The franchise is similar
to Abilene's. When the franchise
was granted for the construction Of
the plant a proviso was inserted in
the ordinance allowing the city to
purchase the plant at an appraised
valuation after the expiration Of ten
years, which occurred two years ago.
The waterworks company does not
care to sell. The present plant can
be duplicated for $4,000. The plant
makes a profit Of $4,000 annually, or
about Is per cent on the actual invest

FRor SUNNY CALIFORNIA.
/. 8. Hallam Writes Interestingly Of
His Trip to the Coast.

To the Editor Of the Reflector.
San DIEGO, CAL, Nov. 80. We left
bonnie Abilene one and a half hours
late on Tuesday last and as that time
was not made up from there to Chey-
enne we missed the California flyer.
1t was wait twenty-five and half
hours or take common emigrant
train with poor accommodations.
With plenty Of snow until near Sac
ramento you may be sure it was not
a very pleasant trip. From the west
side OF the Sierra Nevada mountains
to this place there was flood Of rain.
1t is nice and bright out but cool in
the shade
We had for travelling companions
on that palace stock sleeper VIM.
Fair and two nephews on their way to
San Francisco to be at the division Of
the estate Of ex-senator James G.
Fair, who died worth $40,000,O00.
Two Of them expected at once $780,
900 and the other would get only $75,-
900. They all came long ago from
County Tyrone, Ireland, and are we'll
to-do farmers in Iowa. The one who
was to get most said he did not need
his and did not know what to do with
it and asked me how to invest it. |
told him that Kansas loans were bet
ter than government bonds.
We stopped four hours in Sacra-
mento. 1t has historic interest and |
would have enjoyed taking in many
places but was prevented by mud.
We failed to see Suffers Fort, and the
art gallery donated by Mrs. Crocker,
with building worth 100000. The
botanical garden with 600 varieties Of
roses in bloom is said to be the only
place on earth where there is such
collection. | did take in theil won
derful state capitol. 1t is a grand
building with large and well kept
grounds. In contrast it makes our
state capitol and grounds look very
shabby.
On leaving Sacramento we enter
the valley Of that name, then the
great San joaquin. 1t in all is about
100 miles long and from So to 60 miles
wide. Wheat is the only thing raised.
Land does not look rich like the
Smoky Hill valley.
Was met at Los Angeles by an old
friend Of my boyhood, a Mr.. Eustice,
with tally-ho and baggage wagon;
had but two hours to stay with him
rs we wanted to come here first. We
are settled here. Both stood the trip
Iairly well. We found the Lewis all
well.
Must close this and get out in the
sun as | am too cold indoors. Will
write more some other time.

route between New York and Colon
On the morning OF March 8 while
passing the eastern end OF the island on
aer way north, abe was fred upon
several times by Spanish cruiser and
chased for twenty five miles. The
spanish flag had been saluted twice, aud
the Alliance was on the high seas and
more than two leagues from land when
this outrage was committed The
State Department has been informed of
the occurrence, and a suitable rpology
aud disavowal OF authority for
the attempted exercise OF the
right TO search will be received Ia due

happens afieran affrlnt Of this kind but
10 little moral effect Is produced by these
acts OF reparatlon, that the oifense Is
repeated whenever there Is fresh

these constantly repeated oAsnses pscuH
