A CALL reporter visited the work yester-
day afternoon and found the surface of the
concrete bearing evidence of having been
newly gone over with the liquid cement.
The contractor stated that the concrete
had been down seven days when the COM
mlttee examined it the day before-the
statement of Mr.. Ashworth that it had
Deen down but one day, notwithstanding.
but there were many others than the
Street Committee of the Board of Supervi-
sors who were gathered in the anteroom
of the Grand Jury yesterday afternoon in
response to subpenas. The room was
crowded, the ma jority of those present be-
ing drivers OF carts in the employ of the
Street Department..
The very pertinent question put to them
did not touch upon concrete or bitumen or
street paving but, briefly, it was this:
TO whom do you pay money to keep
your job7"
This, OF course, was something of poser
TO men whose talents have not been
trained In the art of evasion. But despite
the care taken to have them come UMPIRE
pared they had been advised of what was
In the air and most of them had their
answers ready.
Mr.. Heating, Superintendent Ashworth' s
brother-ln.law and chief deputy, keeps a
saloon, as is we'll known, on the corner of
Twelfth and Bond streets. It is rendez-
vous of the men In the employ of the
department, and the policeman who had
been selected to serve the subpenas in
place OF Deputy Sheriff. for the very pur-
pose of giving them no chance to ''get
together" found many of them there.
The purpose soon became whispered about
1t has come to be common knowledge
that the employees of the department are
being levied upon for contributions by
some powers back of the superintendent.

HARD WORK FOR WISE.
The Collie ctor Must Gather and Deport
Midwinter Fafr Chinese.

Midwinter Fair Chinese.
Collector Wise has been instructed by
acting Secretary Hamlin of the Treasury
to deport all the Chinese who were admit
ted as laborers for the Midwinter EXPOSE
ton.
The Chinese, under the law, were enti-
tied to remain one year. but have over
stayed their time. A month ago the
Chinese laborers had it announced to the
Treasury Department that they had de-
parted, but this has been discovered to be
a Chinese trick to throw the authorities off
the track.
When the fair closed the Deputy Collect
ors started in to collect these Chinese, and
their childlike confidence in finding the
Mongol waiting to be deported suffered d
severe shock. The place was deserted.
The administration was already over
reached, and it is question whether the
collector will succeed in rounding up the
IDLE.

The New Woman who comes smok.
ing, comes talking, and she talks to all

IL this is true, has she come talking in
any greater number than before? There
We're always women who liked the ex.
element Of thin ice, in their choice of
topics, especially if the water was not
very deep underneath, and this sort are
still sliding about in conversation. Per-
haps there is really greater frankness
in the matters spoken Of in mixed COM
panies than there was a generation ago;
but within the same period women have
greatly abridged the freedom of their
innocent relations with men in our own
country. The chaperon has come, and
has come to stay, in all her superfiuity,
As 1t would have been accounted by
mothers Of daughters when they were
only daughters themselves. In this
respect the American woman Of 1895 is
vastly less than the woman of lS45, for
what was really a novelty among young
people. and Of our own invention, has
been exchanged, in good society at least,
for remnant of the old conditions
which Europe has been slowly out
growing, and which We had flung aside
with our political allegiance to Eng
land. 1t was one Of the few social
growths indigenous to our soil, it was
graceful and sweet and pretty, and it
was rooted in our purer life; but for
the last quarter Of century we have
been rapidly recolonizing ourselves, and
in nothing more than our wish to ex.
tinguish the charming liberty that once
existed among young people here.
l suppose there is sort Of newness
in women's wish to know rather more
of all sorts Of things than they used;
they have a great many contrivances
for the improvement of their minds;
they take up different varities of work,
and economical; they in
terest themselves in the condition Of the
poor; they have opinions favorable to
the unhappy; they wish to take large
views, and to act helpfully and gener.
nusly. and should be very glad TO be-
lieve that men were equally renewing

NOT A TENOERFOOT.
An Impromptu Dance at which Jim
Dupree Was Master.


Dupree Was Master.
One day a lot Of rustlers and all.
around thieves and cutthroats rode into
a mining town in Arizona and proceed.
ed to have fun. They rode up and
down the main street firing right and
left until they scared everybody indoors.
Then they went into the principal saloon
of the place for liquor. Jim Dupree
happened to be in the saloon at the time
and, as usual, had no gun with him.
Those fellows caught sight of him, and
as he was the freshest looking duck they
had seen for many a day, they started
in to have fun with him. The leader
Of the gang was ruffian called Long
Haired Pete. As soon as he saw Dupree
he pulled his gun and sent bullet
through the floor right between Jim's
feet.
"Give US dance and be - lively
about it" shouted Pete, while his gang
gathered around to see the fun.
Jim got up without word and start
ed in to dancing regular old Kentucky
breakdown. Those fellows thought h.
was scared almost to death. He danced
around in circle, and as he came in
front of the leader of the gang his foot
suddenly shot up and caught Long
Haired Pete squarly under the chin.
The ruffian measured his length on the
floor.
Quick as fash Jim leaped forward
and snatched the two pistols carried by
the leader Of the gang. Then, with a
smile as innocent as that of boy he
covered the gang and told them all to
dance.
They hesitated for a moment. Then
Jim sent bullet through the toe of
Pete's boot, and another through the
hat of Lon Spivey, member Of the
gang. They danced then, and at the
first sign Of let-up Jim would shoot
a button of some mans coat or clip off
lock Of long hair with bullet.
Without taking his eyes off the gang.
Jim told the barkeeper to send out and
get all the boys to come in and see the
fun. They all came quickly enough,
and Jim kept that gang Of outlaws there
dancing until some of them dropped TO
the floor exhausted.
Then he made every man Of them
hand over his gun to the barkeeper,
after which he ordered drinks for the
crowd. When the fun was over he told
Pete to take his gang and get out of the
Territory as fast as possible and never
come back. That gang rode out of
town the sickest-looking lot Of tough
men ever saw, and that was the last
ever seen Of them in that part Of the
Louis Globe Democrat.

Quantity, Quality and Variety Abund.
ant Capital Wanted to tiiise II.
We have made frequent mention Of
our iron ores, and the business which
would follow the investment Of a sum
of money sufficient to manufacture these
ores into the common trade, the Post
lntelligencer says:
at has been a matter Of surprise to
many who are familiar with the re-
sources Of this country why the number
Of iron furnaces projected on this coast
failed to materialize, and it is equally
matter Of regret to those who project
cd the enterprises that they failed to
accomplish results, through no fault OF
their own. The making Of iron and
steel by modern process requires the
investment Of large amount Of CAPT
tal-an amount extending into the
millions-and it also requires great
skill in manufacture and management.
In one or two instances the capital re-
quisite has been secured and every hope
held out Of its immediate availability,
but through unforeseen reverses and
financial troubles the money was not
forthcoming and the preliminary work
was compelled to suspend. Capital,
always timid, is slow to enter untried
fields, and once driven away, it is hard
to secure its return.
THE services Of experts have been
secured on many occasions. and ut great
expense, to examine the mines Of iron,
coal, coke and lime, to report carefully

ably good. and as such could be passed

abroad. In one instance the product of
