People ask what good does
DR.. Henley's Celery, Beef and
Iron do. To be fair with you it
will not cure a disease of twenty
years standing in two minutes;
to be frank with you it will not
restore sight to the blind or per-
form any so-called miracle y;
but to tell you the whole truth
it will help every part of your
system. It is guaranteed to be
made from Celery (the only safe
nervlne), Beef (the best system
builder in the world) and Iron,
the peerless purifier and
strengthener of the blood. Ask
yourself-can as much be said
OF any other preparation? And
then remember that these grand

BEATEN AND ROBBED.
Experience of Michael Collins, a Visitor
From WheatIand.

Michael Collins came from Wheatland
two days ago. Wednesday night, while
walking past Market and Brady streets, he
was attac ked by two young men. They
knocked him down and kicked him on the
face and robbed him of about $40. He
wandered about the streets all last night
and yesterday morning penniless, until
some one directed him to the Receiving
Hospital.
He presented sorry spectacle when he
appeared in the hospital. Both his eyes
were blackened, his face bruised and
swollen. his forehead badly cut and one of
his wrists sprained.

help declaring that the festival had done
honor to the Italian colony. He then
touched on the action of Consul Grlmaldl
and stated that that official had greatly
added to the animus of the enemies OF the
committee. Cavagnaro, Biagi, Consonno,
Ma!plrde and others also spoke strongly
against the Consul
Signor Biagi added that, in addition to
passing vote OF censure against him, it
would be well to present a petition to the
Italian government praying for his recall.
The following resolution was finally passed
unanimously:
IN; me executive committee for the solemn fes..
nval of the twenty-ffth anniversary OF
in its meeting OF October ID, being
extremely hurt by the incorrect and blame
worthy position held by the Italian Consul,
Cav. Brun1 GrImaldl, on the occasion of a meet
Ing held october IL, deplore the fact, to which
they call the attention of the home Govern
ment and note that for the future there should
be no repetition of such interference on the
part OF our foreign representatives.
The executive committee also passed a
unanimous protest against the vote of
censure which was given the newspaper
L'1talia at Fridays mass-meeting. 1t was
declared that L'Italia had given all pos
sible moral and material help to the fes-
tlval from the time it was first spoken Of
Votes of thanks were passed to all who
had aided the festival, and it was stated
that, far from being failure financially,
there would be $3.50 surplus for charity
The thirtysix members of the committee
who unanimously voted censure for the
Consul were:

SAUSAL|TO ADVANCEMENT.
WORK COMPLETED ON WATER
AND A STREETS AND OTHER
PLANS MADE.
CALEDONIA STREET, THE OLD
COUNTY ROAD, TO BE GRADED
AND PAVED.

Sausalito's Town Trustees having seen
the good results of their efforts in improv
ing the streets are contemplating further
improvements, which when completed will
add largely to the comfort OF living there.
At the meeting of the board Tuesday
night the Street superintendent reported
the completion of the work of grading,
guttering and macadamizing of Water and
A streets, and stated that he was ready to
issue the assessment to J. Raisch, assignee
of J. J. OConnor, the original contractor.
The report was not favorably received by
all the property-owners on the street, and
one of them, John Smell, protested against
the acceptance of the work on the ground
that the specifications had not been COM
piled with.
General Dickinson, president of the
board, referred the matter to the Street
Committee.
Ernest Mccullough. who holds the Office
OF Street Superintendent and Town En-
gineer, says he has no fear of the result, as
he has watched the work carefully, and
when in any degree there appeared to have
been disregard of the specifications he
required the contractor to do his work
over again.
The board passed an ordinance adopting
grade on Caledonia street from Water
to the North Pacific railroad shops-a dis
tance of more than a mile, or about twelve
blocks. A petition was received from
property on four blocks of Gale
donia street asking that the street be
graded. A resolution of intention was
adopted by the board providing for the
grading of eight blocks and crossings and
the putting in of sidewalks was postponed
Till spring that the grading may settle.
The grading of Caledonia street will re-
suit in opening up the best section of
North Sausalito. This street was formerly
the county road, and being the only en-
trance to the town from other parts of the
county it is believed by many of the prop
erty-owners that it will eventually become
the principal business street. The plans
for the grading contemplate a Till of some
$4,000 cubic yards of earth and 1000 or 5000
yards of rock.
Town Engineer Mccullough reported
that be had completed surveys in South
Sausa Tito for sewerage and drainage plans,
and an ordinance was introduced fixing
the grades on Richardson, Main Valley,
Third, Fourth and West streets.

Photographs by Electricity.

What next will the wonderful applica-
tion of electricity bring forth? Why right
here in Augusta photographs are being
taken with tho aid of the powerful cleo
trio light at E. L. Haskcll's studio on Cony
street, East side.
The ingeniously constructed apparatus
by which the work is done is called the
Anthony electric light machine and it is
made in the great city of Chicago. To
your surprise you will find the machine a
small one, yet WITH great power, 5000
candle power.
The current of electricity comes from
the electric light station and wires have
been run from one OF the feeders or large
electric light wires into the photograph
studio. Before the large wire reaches the
machine 1t passes through an apparatus
called regulator, which lessons or
strengthens the current as desired.
The machine used to take the pictures In
the night time is shaped somewhat Ike
little fiat box and is attached to the top
Of a pedestal about four feet high, while
upon what might be termed the outer
side are two large reflectors, bowl shaped,
and extending through the center of this
part of the machine arc two pieces of car
bon.
Inside of tho little box shaped part Of
the machine is the finest part OF the
mechanism. A powerful battery Is located
there and by turning thumb screw the
current can be turned on gradually and
the volume Of light required readily
produced.
When the current Is on In force and the
iiobt burning to its full extent the studio
is lighter than by day and the photog-
rainier can procure very fine picture
When rushed with work printing can be
dome nv the aid Of this machine, which at
nrescnt is the only ono east OF Portland.
For group pictures its work is splenoid.
Anv one desiring to become acquainted
with the wonderful apparatus can call
.t Mr. Haskell's studio any evening and
he will willingly give full explanation
=, this new process of taking photographs.
