party of seven young men from this

able of it on the way, for they were in
high spirits when they reached Freeport.
At that point the party crossed the river
on the terryboat. Among them was a
''tenderfoot," just from New York, who
wanted to show Oft little. He had no
use for ferryboat in order to cross a lit

q plank, pitched it into the river and
plunged in after it, without removing
any OF his clothing.
Instead OF striking out across the river,
| however, he was taken down stream by
the current, and would have been
drowned bad not some men put off in q
boat and rescued him. He was dragged
upon the ferry boat, but insisted on being
allowed TO have his own way about cross

undaunted by the disastrous failure of
his first attempt to swim across. 1t took

EDS. RECORD UNION: wish to notify
those who are advocating the improve
ment of Seventeenth street that the
sewer in that street was not constructed
for the purposes for which it is now used.
This has been repeatedly brought to the
notice of the City Trustees and the Board
of Health, and this is not the first article
that has appeared in "Everybody's
Column" on this subject, but all efforts
10 obtain relief have been unavailing in
the past. But as it is going to cost great
deal OF money to improve this street as
suggested, before it is decided to sdo so I
ask in the name of humanity that an in
Yestigation be made. 1t will be menace
TO the health and lives of those living on
Seventeenth street and its neigh hborhood
to stir up this dlsease-infected soil, and
there can be only one justifiable reason
for so doing, and that is to build we'll
constructed sewer, and that ought to be
done Immediately and with haste.

Successful Signaling Yesterday From
Here to Mount Diablo.
The members of the Signal Corps in
this city were very much discouraged on
Saturday because of the rain, as they had
prepared to communicate on Sunday
from the dome of the Capitol with a de-
tachment of the San Francisco Signal
Corps on Mount Diablo by the use of the
heliograph, and feared the weather might
continue stormy.
Early yesterday morning, however,
they reioiced when they found that the
rain had subsided and left the atmos-
phere clear enough so that they could
flash messages TO the signalmen on
Mount Diablo.
The practice was a complete success.
Not only did the Sacramento corps COM
municate with those on far-away Diablo,
but they sent messages TO san Francisco
through the station on the mountain,
which was utilized as relay.
A movement is on foot between the
Sacramento, Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco Signal Corps to communicate from
this city, in the near future, to Los An
geles, by way of San Francisco In order
to do this relay stations will be located
at various points along the route.

readily pulverized by heating it red hot,
and throwing it into water, and finish
ing the powdering in an iron mortar. BY
the use of sieves OF different sizes of mesh
the powder can be separated into various
grades OF hneness. A strong paper is

Is dry the surplus glass is shaken OF
