ON ACCOUNT OF COOKERY,
Albino Matasci Attempts Suicide
Because His Milk Was
Dumped.
The Inspector Makes Another Midnight
Raid and Spills Many Gallons
of Milk.

Albino Matasci, member of the firm OF
s. Vosti & Co., milk-dealers, weary of the
struggle to evade Inspector Dockery, at
tempted to commit suicide last Thursday
morning. The story of Matascis rash act
is briefly told as follows:
Shortly after Dockery assumed Office he
came across a wagon of milk belonging to
Vosti & Co., which, upon examination,
proved to be much below the standard
fixed by the Board of Health. The milk
was accordingly condemned, Matasci tax.
ing the act very much to heart. He loudly
proclaimed the purity of his milk, but the
Babcock test told a different story II
showed butter fat of little over per cent
with a specific gravity of about 1922.
However, Matasci seemed to have re.
covered somewhat from this shock and
was to all appearances satisfied that his
cows had been tempered with.
Last Thursday morning Albino came
into the City with load of what he said
was pure milk. Somewhere near Third and
Howard he came across Dockery and that
ended his morning delivery. The fata
Babcock told its tale truthfully and Vosti's
milk went like the first load-into the
gutter.
That was the last straw, and Matasci
concluded that life without adnlterated

In their fortunate relays of halfbacks
the Q. C. men were able to put little
fresh vigor into their play during the
second half. The Olympics kept them
busy for the first fifteen minutes OF the
game, but after the first touchdown the

of the story is best told by s. Gianettoni,
wine merchant on Fifth street. and per-
sonal friend of the would-be suicide.

morning as is my usual custom" said Mr..
Gianettoni last night, land there found
Matasci. He appeared very morose, and
it was only after considerable persuasion
that | learned the cause of his silence.
Briefly stated, Dockery had dumped his
milk.

me that in moment of desperation he
had attempted to end his life. 1t seems
that when Dockery turned his milk ont he

cans of milk with which to serve his

Just when everything seem ed to be NOV

his pocket-knife, drawing the keen blade
across the right arm. Before he could in
filct further injury on himself, police
man rushed forward and attempted to
place him under arrest. Matasci was too
aglle, however. and escaped down Howard
street coming directly to my store.

cordingly sent him to the drugstore, corner
OF Sixth and Howard streets, where the
attending physician dressed his injuries.
That is all there is to the story and I am
very sorry on his account that it hap
pened. l am indirectly interested in the
business, and, of course, regret all this I'M
pleasant notoriety. The only way l can
account for it is that Matasci is just the
least bit 'nutty.'"
DR.. Samuels, the attending physician,
corner Sixth and Howard streets, said that
early Thursday morning Matasci came to
have his wounds dressed, failing, however,
to assign any reason for his condition.
Dockery made another extensive raid in
the early hours of yesterday morning.
Starting out from the City Hall about l
A. NJ. he found three faulty wagons between
that time and daylight.
The first was that of the Swiss Dairy
with thirty-six cans on board. A great
crowd gathered on Sixth and Stevenson
streets, where the hold-up occurred, and
when Dockery turned the first can into
the street a shout went up from the as
sembled hundreds. Following the Swiss
Farm wagon came that of ]. J. Rugli with
fourteen cans and big tub of foul-smell-
ing swill. The Sausalito Dairy wagon was
the last to be dumped during the night.

The University of California Has
Defeated the Olympic
Club.
SCORE. TWENTY TO NOTHING
A Game of Long Runs and Punts. Inter.
spersed With Costly Fumbles
on Both Sides.

The University OF California football
team defeated the Olympics at Central
Park yesterday afternoon by score of 20
to Q, two touchdowns and one goal being
made in each half.
At no time after the game was a little
advanced did it appear likely that the
Olympics would score, for most of the
playing was confined to their territory.
The Berkeley boys put up a quick,
snappy game, but it was not without a
good many fumbles. Ransome, as a
punter, as ground gamer in a scattered
field and as line bucker, showed himself
to be very valuable man to the college
eleven and one whose injury would be a
serious individual loss that could not be
made good by any other player.

He Will Have a Farm Conducted After
the Most Approved Scientific Fashion.
In the great outlay which George Van
derbilt is making at Biltmore. in North
Carolina, the young millionaire has enter
tanned more serious purpose than is
generally known. A great deal has been
written about the enormous house, with
its library, chapel scores of bedrooms and
the army of servants which will be re-
CURED to kept up, but not every one
knows that Mr.. Vanderbilt intends to
are seriously interested in forestry,
scientific farming and horticulture. He
has land enough to carry out any scheme
of this sort, no matter how big 1t may be,
as he can go forty miles in direct line
from his own door without passing the
confines of his own domain. He proposes,
therefore, to create a neghborhood of his
own on this vast property, which includes,
among other cultivated and uncultivated
tracts, one forest alone of more than 100,-
GOO acres. He will build village contain
ing houses, stores and picturesque inn.
and apartments will be rented to all prop
erly accredited students who desire to
avail themselves of the facilities offered
there for the study of the sciences
which are his hobby. The farm will
be conducted after the most approved
scientific fashion, and forestry which is
almost unknown in America, but will be-
come in few years science of great I'M
portance TO us, will be carried on expert
mentally and practically to an extent
never before attempted in this country.
Mr.. Vanderbilt has just returned to New
York from Biltmore, where he has been
spending the summer in q completed wing
OF his great mansion. He expects to have
the house finished in time for Christmas
house warming, the guests at which will
be chiefly members of his own family.
Edgar Poe wrote story once about man
whose income was SO large that Landscape
gardening was the only hobby that could
make any serious inroads on it, and il
may be that it was this story that gave Mr.
Vanderbilt his idea.-New York Sun.

AN UNDESIRABLE VARNIsH.-Manufactu
ers of varnish have long aimed at turning
out solution that among other requisites
would dry quickly. The desirabilitv of
this quality has just been exemplified in a
New Jersey village. Last week the church
OF the village was painted and the interior
vanished. AS the work was done early in
the week the seats were supposed to be dry
by Sunday. When the members of the
efongregatdioh SAT oo I'M tne varnlsn looked
ever, proved delusive, for after the wor-
shippers had been seated short time the
heat Of their bodies softened the varnish,
and when an attempt was made to rise it
was found almost as hard TO separate the
garment from the seat as to remove a
porous plaster. The harm done to cloth
ing was considerable, and the congregation
has become critical and distrustful on the
subject of varnishes.
