out on Thursday evening was the result of
a mere caprice, the outcome of joke be-
tween her mother and herself and that
she only hastily threw on a shawl with the
intention of being out not more than ten
minutes. She ran to a neighbor's s,
and, in returning home, happened
to cross the track at just the position of
The obstruction. At first she thought it
the work of boys, intent only on mischief,
but feeling about she realized that not even
one powerful man could have moved such
large rocks into place.
The sight of the headlight of the train,
only two blocks distant, decided her upon
instant action, but even as she ran, al
though the thought did not deter her flying
feet, she said to herself. "How silly am.
suppose it is nothing? What fool shall
feel if they stop that train for boy s
trick"
Miss Wilson was visited on the morning
after her adventure by the superintendent
of the road, who extended warmest thanks
for her prompt action, and admitted to her
that this was second attempt of the kind
which had been frustrated at that crossing

The RatLroGd Attorney Cannot Under
stand Why the Money Vas Refused.
William F. Herrin, chief counsel of the
law department of the Southern Pacific
Company, had not heard last night that
the State Controller had refused to accept
money rendered the State in payment of
Central and Southern Pacific railway
taxes.
81 cannot imagine why the money should
have been refused" said he. 'But don't
you think it was foolish to refuse money,
anyhow? AS / understand it, the money
sent to Sacramento to pay these taxes was
for amounts based on assessments of the
State Board of Equalization.
~ cannot give an opinion now as to what
the company may do. 1t is likely the
money will be taken back, and held by us
until the difficulty, whatever it may be, is
settled.
"If there had been any trouble with the
Board of Equalization l would have been
consulted about it. But I was not con-
suited, so it is safe to say there is no mis-
understanding on that score. This money
is for State taxes only. The taxes on
county assessments have been paid, so Mr..
Daiton's difference with E. Black Ryan
could have nothing to do with the accept
ance or rejection of money for State taxes. !"

MONTEREY, CAL, April 29.-Thirty-
five members of the Half-million Club ar
rived at Del Monte at 80 o'clock this
afternoon, after breaking the record for
fast travel between San Jose and Mon
terey, though they paid dearly for it. In
going around a sharp curve the dining-car
was almost turned over, and as result
men, women and children were consider
ably mixed up. Plates and glassware were
thrown from the tables, spilling the con-
tents over the occupants.
However, after all this excitement, the
party claim that it is the happiest day
they have spent. When D. M. Carman
was seen tonight by the CALL correspon-
dent be said:
eve have all had lovely time to-day.
At 80 o'clock this morning we arrived at

the members of which treated us royalty,

such fine turnouts for drive. We were

prune ranch, and were entertained in one
of the large prune driers, and each of us
was furnished with fine sample of the
prunes.
From the Hume orchard we were driven
down through the valley to Mrs. Win
chester's beautiful place. Here we wanted
our official photographer to photograph
us, together with Mrs. Winchester and her
home, but she was opposed to it, not caring
for the notoriety. After spending pleas

This afternoon, after their arrival, some
of the members of the club visited the City
of Adobes, and those who had never seen
the romantic old buildings were greatly
interested. Among the buildings visited
were the Custom-bousa, Cotton Hall, the
first capitol building in California, the
Quartet and the old Missions. Others drove
around the sevehteen-mile drive, while
others refreshed themselves with a cool
plunge in the Del Monte tanks.

Why Postmaster atkinson Cannot Get
Ostt of Office.
SEATTLE, WASH, April 29.-The tribu-
lations of Postmaster Atkinson of Newcas-
tie. as told in a CALI dispatch yesterday,
afford fine illustration of the workings OF
red tape. The Newcastle postoffice is ad-
mittedly one of the perquisites attaching
to the position of storekeeper for the Ore
gon Improvement Company, and as the
practice of the company for many years
has been to change storekeepers about
every six months for irregularities or for
other reasons the office has been turned
over by each man to his successor as store
keeper.
Not enough time has yet elapsed in the
case of any of the successive deputies to
receive an appointment and go through
the formaities leading up to qualitica-
ton for the Office, and so in each case the
office has reverted to Mr.. Atkinson. His
only relief appears to be to hire some one
to stay in Newcastle long enough to de-
pr1ve him of the burdens of Office.

Merchandise to Be COnreyed From San
Francisco by Boats and Teams.
FRESNO, CAL, April 29.-Arrangements
have been completed by a. B. Smith, local
agent for the large wholesale house of
Wellman, Peck & Co.. to have merchandise
shipped from San Francisco to Firebaugbs
Ferry by steamer. The ferry is about
twenty-three miles from this city, and
teams will be employed to haul freight
here. Two ten-mule teams will leave here
on the 9th to meet the steamer. 1t is ex-
pected that trip will be made from San
Francisco every eight days. When the
river is low steamer of lighter draught
will be put into service.
The plan has never been tried, but it is
confidently expected that a large saving in
freight rates can be made. If the expert
ment is successful more steamers will be
put on and more teams employed.

rebuilding of the Raymond Hotel A
meeting has been held by citizens, who
discussed the situation with Walter Ray
mond. He frankly acknowledged his dis
inclination and financial inability to re-

hampered with a stock corporation. He
proposes to the citizens of Pasadena to
issue bonds to the amount of $500 700.
$250,0O0 of which shall be fioated in Pasa-
dena. If this arrangement can be effected
Mr.. Raymond will begin the construction
of new hotel on the old site at once and
open it January l. 1896.

bonds 1t is composed of the following
gentlemen: P. M. Green, president of the

also having chopped up the bedstead.
On some pieces of the bedstead stains of
blood were discovered, and the theory now
held by the police is that Pomerleau was
