WANTS 1T FRESH AND PURE
The Health Officer Is Waiting for Home-lIade
Anti-TOxine

"The Health Officer is unable to procure
anti-toxine at present." said Health Off
Ger Steddom yesterday. 'We are waiting
to see what the Legislature will do with
bill to establish supply farm in Berke-
ley, to be operated by the State Univer-
sity.
''Ten thousand dollars would start an
anti -toxine factory, which would be able
to supply the needs of the whole state.
The State University would make the
work part of their scientific department,
under the charge of the faculty. The
students would do the work. 1t is an
admirable plan.
II estimate that ten or twelve horses
would keep the supply up. The Pasteur
Institute in New York supplies the rene
dy, but there is no certainty that it will
be good by the time it reaches us. 1t is
all question of handling it. If we could
manufacture it out here on the coast
there would be no doubt OF it's freshness
THE methods of procuring the serum
are well understood now, and any scien-
tific person could do the work. -
The reports of the Health Officer show
that there is very little diphtheria in the
city now, and no prospect of immediate
need of the antitoxine.

BICYCLE TAX IN FRANCE.

1t Produces IL Revenue of Four Hum
dred Thousand Dollars.
Some exceedingly Interesting statistics
have Just come TO hand on the 'DIcycle
taxi among the French, and this nrst
compilation fthe revenue the wheel nets
to the state is we'll worth giving. The
Act imposing the tax was passed April
%, 1898, and went into effect on June lst
OF the same year. 1t is nine francs a
wheel, paid annually, and the rider who
does not declare" his machine is liable
for double tax. so easy Is 1t, however,
TO establish the fact OF PERSONS owner
ship in cycle that only small percent
age of French riders fail to step up 10
the Captains office" But 1899 riders
tried to avoid the bicycle duty in 1898,
and in 1894 only l,l03 attempted to dodge
the impoSt.
AS many as l32. 275 bicycles were rid
den in France in 1893, according TO the
returns Of the Government officials.
From January lst TO July l. 1884. there
was the enormous increase OF %, 94o ma
chimes, an addition Of q tritie over 333 per
cent. The returns tor the latter half Of
1894 have not boon made. probably be-
cause the Government books of revenue
statistics are only balanced at the end of
tho fiscal year. July 1st. The returns for
the nrst SIX months OF the year, however,
show a revenue OF /, ,9S2. $50 francs and "a
confines on total OF 2O3,0 machines.
This is nearly $500. 000
These figures show that one person out
OF every lS1 in France rides a wheel. In
Paris the proportion is even more start
ing. There one out of every seventy-two
is mounted on safety. Leaving out OF
this calculation those incapitated by age.
by disease and by deiormity, it is not i'm
probable that one out OF every thirty per-
sons in Paris whols physically capable
and financially able to ride wheel does
go If the ratio were the same in this
country, which of course it is not as yet,
thera would be q tritie over 100000 ma
chimes in daily use here.
The Department of the Seine, which
constitutes Paris, has, of course. more BIZ
cycles within its boundaries than any
other district in France. The machines
registered there are 3S, 500. 1t is curious
to note that in the French Government
books they are set down as 'yelocipedes,"
and the riders are called "velocipedists."
In the mountainous island OF Corsica
only forty bicycles are returned" This
gives Corsica an additional element of
distinction. 1t is the only Department in
France that is not literally bicycle rid
den. Had Napoleon lived in this day
and generation, instead Of az the Begin
ming Of the century, it would probably
have been very different. Then he would
not have gone down to history on a high
priced Brasset poster, with long, flap
ping coat. cooked hat and mounted on
a white, Padrewski horse. He would in
stead have retreated from Moscow on a
pneumatic satety-Yew York World.

PNEUMATIC WATER CRAFT.
Most Useful Combination of Wind and
EUbber.

Most Useful Com binatIon of Wind and
I:ubber.
This generation seems to have devised
many new and striking uses for the eas-
ticity and bouyancy of the air. From the
pneumatic-tired sulky, which reduced
the time required by horse to cover a
mile of distance. up to the almost uni
versally popular bicycles, which have
proven even greater distance killers and
time savers for bipeds. we seem to have
protited greatly by the combination of
wind and rubber. 1t is natural that this
com binaiion should be employed III Civ
ing man tho mastery over the water with
out heavy floating appliances.
Many devices have arisen for floating
on the water. One is an ingenious craft
designed 10y II. ID. Layman, New York.
1t is described by its manufacturer as q
pneumatic beat, made Of rubber cloth,
and shaped like horse collar. From the
forward part of the bottom depend two
boots or leg cases, the ends OF which are
provided with coiiapsing paddles, which
open on the back stroke and close on the
forward stroke, like ducks foot. The
small end OF the oval is the bow. and d
stiff rudder strapped III one position to
the stern keeps the bow in front The
boat is prepared tor use by Initiating it
with air by means ofa blower. 1t takes
from three 10 five minutes to get it ready.
The bOatrnan puts his feet into the cases,
and, holding up the boat by loops, he
walks down to the water and launches
himself. 1t is claimed there is no danger
OF capsizing, as the center of gravity is
always below the water line. The user
of this strange craft may paddle himself
in any direction at the rate of two or
three miles an hour. Ladies and children
may use it with safety in calm water.
The boat seems to possess practical
value. The arms and body Of the occu-
pant are free for the use of gun or rod,
and in moving about there is no noise or
splash. In rough weather and water a
rubber storn-cape can be used, which is
fastened under the break water by cord.
Speed is not factor. out two or three
miles an hour can be attained. The adult
boat measures fortyfour inches by thirty
four inches in breadth, and will draw
from two to five inches; when collapsed
it weighs about fifteen pounds, and can
be folded and packed in q valse. In
yachting it can be used to get to or from
large boats in deep water without ten
der, aud as a life-preserver can quickly
be made ready for use.

1t was reported at midnight last night
that some persons over in Yolo had
in their possession the sacks in which
was hidden the s53 900 stolen from Wells,
Fargo & Co. when The overland train was

Der.
But, according to the report, the empty

They are said to have been found under
some debris in the vicinity of the spot
where Jack Brady said the money had
been partially buried. Whoever found
the money removed it from the bags in
which the robbers had placed it and left
the bags behind.
This was natural enough, however, for
If they had lain on or under the ground
for any length of time they would have
rotted so as TO have been useless.
At all events. there is no longer any

Thousands OF acres of excellent mining

The land the register refers To as excel

thoroughly vulgar and debasing.
This statement which we clip from L7p-

find an echo of a very we'll defined sort
in the minds Of people in this city, who
are opposed to the presentation here of a
play founded upon events which have
shocked and startled the civilized world.
Plays OF this character in spite of their
lnvertebrate lines, ludicrous staging and
knock-kreed acting. are direct incen-
tiyes to crime, standing in this respect on

Dixon Tribune.1

The following should be law in every
State in the Union, as it will tend nightly
to the purity of morals. Section $500 of
the Statute of the State of Missouri reads
as follows: "It shall be unlawful for any
person to sell, lend, give away or show to
a minor child any book, magazine, news
paper, story paper or other printed paper
devoted to the publication or principally
made up OF criminal news, police reports
or accounts of criminal deeds, and any
such person or persons violating this law
shall be guilty of misdemeor, and ON
conviction shall be fined a sum not to OK
ceed 500. or Imprisonment in the County
Jail not to exceed six months. or both

whether their fond hopes shall material
