The Atlanta Constitution says
that it predicted that the repeal of
the Sherman silver purchase act
would be followed by a further de-
probation in prices, and that these
results have followed. "Values of
all kinds have been cut; all prices
have deprecated" We notice, how
ever, that the price of the Constitu-
ton remains at SIS year, just as it
was long before the editor Of that
paper discovered that free coinage
OF silver was necessary to maintain
values.

POWER At SAN DERYARD|XO
To Be Obtained From Ly tie
Creek Water
A VERY FAVORABLE OFFER
The City Will Manufacture Its Own
Electric Light
Contracts Let for Lighting the City for
A VERY FAVORABLE OFFER
Contracts Let for Lighting the City for q
Year-A Special Trip on the
rlotor Road

SAN BERNARpINo, Dec. 27.-President
Lawson of the board of trustees quietly
filed an option with the city clerk last
night which completely eclipses the for
mer proposition made to this city by
which it may secure power and manufac-
ture it's own electric light. The new offer
is nothing less than the use of all the water
in Lyle creek at a point where the channel
carries more water than any place else.
The lowest recorded flow of water at that
point, in the dryest month of the dryest
season is over 1900 inches and the trustees
are lost in the mazes of the computation,
when they attempt to figure out the horse
power which might be developed.
Mr. Lawson secured the option for the
board from J. D. Lakin yesterday, and
the board has eight months to decide
whether it will pay $500 for the power in
dictated. The site Of the water power is on
Lytle creek, about miles below the point
where the power house would ba located,
if the Harris and Christy proposition
should be accepted That is to say, it is
nearly four miles closer to the city, and
the loss in transmission of power would be
correspondingly less.
At that point Lakin has appropriated all
the water in Lytle creek, and is using it, OF
so much as is needed to run small saw
mill, which he has maintained there for
some time. He was talking yesterday
with Mr.. Lawson about the power there,
and incidentally suggested that he would
like to dispose of it to the city. He was
asked to put a price upon it and at first
named $1,000, but finally agreed to $500,
and Mr.. Lawson wrote out the option and
it was signed forthwith.
There are a number of very favorable
considerations in connection with the new
proposal. One has already been indicated,
the fact that it is nearer the city. Another
is the character of the banks of the stream
where the water is diverted. The creek
there flows through solid rock walls, and at
that particular place the water would be
brought through a point by means of a
tunnel, and below that. within the distance
of half mile, fall of 200 fee is secured,
and the total volume of water in Ly tie
creek at that point, falling 200 feet. would
develop horse power that requires four tig-
ures 10 designate.

1t is true that some oranges have been

In fact ice had been but little, if any obstruction, to navigation. He said he had been able to make his way through it until to- night with his own boat.

From one lit tie society have sprung more than thir- ty-seven thousand societies.
 Although the anniversary day came on Saturday, yesterday was observed as Christian Endeavor Day. by most of the societies in this city. In nearly all the local societies collections were talk en, the proceeds of which will be de- voted to some denominational mission ary object. In the case of the Church of the Redeemer Y. P. S. c.

A Letter From MT. and Mrs. MattoOn. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER
 Dear Sir-As the Register has declin. ed to publish a correction Of the mis- statements made in it's columns of last Wednesday evening, when it published an article headed Miss Mattoon's Ad- ventures" we beg the use of your col umns to make right what that has made wrong.
 The article does a great injustice to the family, and is very incorrectly stat ed. We write you a few of the many facts misrepresented.
 In the first place, no one ever accused ''the boys of throwing stones;" the noises were entirely unlike any such noise; they happened early in the even- ing, when the family were in the room with her. as well as Hate at night"
 In the second place, Officer Tripp was in the house only three nights and then only a few hours at time. Miss Mat toon twas moved to another room' at his request, and as for the "HospitaF question, that is entirely false, as such thing was never thought of. The fam fly feel very much aggrieved that any such thing should be published without first ascertaining the truth.
 As regards the affair at No. 75 Sher- man avenue, we would refer you to MT. and Mrs Barnum
 Hoping you will give this as much publicity as possible, we remain yours respectfully,
 MT. and Mrs. George Mattoon.
