ESTATES IN CALIFORNIA.
How to Use or Subdivide Large
Landed Country Prop.
critics.
Proposition illustrated by Practical
Example in Santa Clara
Valley.

The Bay Forest farm, located in San
Mateo County, on the Southern Pacific
Railroad, near Redwood City, twenty
eight miles from San Francisco, contains
1150 acres. 1t is part of the Britain estate,
which has been in the family over forty
years. 1t is now offered for sale, and is to
be auctioned off next Saturday at o'clock
P. NJ.
The question is asked, What can be done
with it2 There are several answers to this
question. The property will undoubtedly
sell for what is considered very low
price for that class of real estate. Grant
ing. then, low valuation, as expected, as
basis for consideration, the uses to which
it may be put are numerous.
First a gentleman of wealth may occupy
it as his own private residence, which, of
course as always beneht to the vicinity.
Second, it may be used as stock farm,
with more or less fruit growing and gen.
eral agricultural pursuits, including gar
dening. Its nearness to San Francisco,
with both rail and water transportation,
gives it eminent advantage in these re-
spects, and if fine stock, whether horses or
cattle, are raised, every facility for so
doing can be found there, and in such use
considerable profits can be expected over
other places, the market being the same
to both.
Thirdly, and best for the community,
perhaps, would be its subdivision into
country homes for business men of San
Francisco. At the low price at which it is
expected to 60, place of from two to five
acres can be bought, and such a house
built as would suit every purpose of a
family summering there, entailiDg in in
terest, taxes, etc, an expense no greater
than ordinary rent for a country place
through the period of summer recreation.
With such profitable uses as suggested
in view the sale of this property becomes
very important one, as 1t breaks in upon
the large holdings that, while delightful
and desirable in themselves, and of course
more or less so to the community, yet for
the general good the same area settled
with many people is far better.
1t is to be hoped that the sale by Messrs.
McAfee Brothers on next Saturday will be
a success; and that it will be only short
time before many delightful homes will
dot the excellent property which they are
placing upon the market.

Only $4,000 Will Be offered for the
Dunbar Alley Lots.
The committee of the Board of Super
visors, appointed to take steps toward the
purchase of the odd lots not owned by the
City, in the block bounded by Kearny,
Merchant and Washington streets and
Dunbar alley, where the old City Hall
stood, met yesterday to consider the matter
Of prices.
Richard P. Hammond, who had been
instructed to negotiate for the purchase,
stated that the property-owners did not
seem anxious to sell at any price. Some
owners, he said, wanted exorbitant figures
for their lots, while others were quite rea.
sonable.
Supervisors Hughes and Benjamin
thought the property should be appraised
at $4,000, and Mr.. Hammond was in.
structed to offer the owners that amount.
Mr.. Hughes favored condemnation pro-
ceedings without delay, but the matter
was allowed to rest until the next meeting
and another report from Mr.. Hammond.

The box of $3.50 worth of counterfeit
coin which was sent to Stockton to Howell
was identified by Clerks S. P. Childers and
T. Y. Reed, of Wells. Fargo & Co.'s ex-
press, and Driver William Bower, who de-
livered it. Secret Service Agent Harris
had had sope marked coins put in that
box.
John Herman, saloon-man; Benjamin
Moon, his barkeeper; c. L. Davis; Charles
P Brown, butcher; w. R. Clayes of the
Stockton Gas Works, James A. Powers,
George Ives and Henry Eschbach, all
swore to having received some of
the bad coin. Ives said that Howell
redeemed a bad S. bill from him, and
Eschbach caught two 50-cent pieces that

slaughter.


The case of Charles B. Henderson,
charged with the murder of Clarence Barr,
went to the jury last evening after counsel
had argued the case all day. The jury re-
turned verdict of manslaughter after de-
liberating twenty minutes.
John Hosmer, Assistant District Attor-
ney, opened the arguments for the prose
cution. He was followed by Arthur Mack
for the defense. He gave place to Colonel
Eddy, and Mr.. Hosmer closed. The bur-
den of the arguments for the prisoner was
self-defense.
Barr and Henderson met in the Baldwin
Hotel bar about 4 o'clock in the morning
of July 13, 1895. Barr was a Chinatown
guide and Henderson travelling salesman,
a stranger in San Francisco. Barr asked
Henderson to take drink, and then when
it came to question of paying Barr did
not offer payment. The bartender asked
who was to pay and Henderson motioned
toward Barr.
Barr denied he had ordered the drinks,
and when Henderson insisted that he had
Barr struck Henderson and called him a
liar. The barkeepers separated the men,
