Never Before Has So Light Vehicle
Sustained such Heavy Burdens
1t seems absolutely impossible that a
wheel thirty inches in diameter, with a
wood RIM and wire spokes, so light that
the whole structure weighs only twenty
ounces, should sustain, without perma-
nent distortion, the weight of four men
standing on its side with supports at four
points only under the rim, and no hub
support whatever.
1t also seems incredible that cycle
capable of carrying man OF 100 or lfo
pounds in weight can be made so light
that the whole structure weighs less than
nine pounds. y ct this has been done
Even at the roadster weight of twenty
two or twenty-four pounds the cycle car
ries greater load with safety than has ever
been put on any other vehicle.
The influence of the cycle on social life
is already great, and will, probably, con-
stantly extend, rs it provides an outdoor
sport and amusement for women which
did not previously exist in any form
in America. American women are not
walkers, but the cycle is, perhaps, even
better suited to wOman's use than man S

THIS TIME IT is ANSON c. YORK.
A Railroad Carpenter Thought to Be
Drowned.
His Clothes Found on the Bank Of a
Pond North of the Railroad
Shops.

Another man is missing, and 1t is
feared he was accidentally drowned last
evening.
Anson c. York, a carpenter employed
in the railroad shops, and whose family
reside at 9lS G. street, has not been seen
since o'clock yesterday afternoon, and
it is thought his body lies in pond back
of the railroad company's roundhouse.
York bad been in the habit of going In
that Locality frequently to obtain grass
for his cow. and yesterday afternoon he
went thero. as is supposed, for the same
purpose, and incidentally to take swim
in the pond.
His clothes were found on the bank by
an acquaintance. who immediately went
to Ork's house to ascertain If the latter
was at home. He was informed that ork
had not been seen since o'clock. York
probable went into the water to bathe
and was seized with q cramp and
drowned.
\ wife and two SONS wept for him as
dead last night. The Oldest boy is about
l6 years of age, and the latter several
years younger.
York was u brother-in-law of Henry
Balsz, patrol driver in the Police Depart
ment.

Early Californian Hospitality.

The hospitality of both ranches and
missions was unbounded. one could
travel the length of the land and no
money asked for, nor would 1t be re-
ceived if offered; horses were furnished
from one rancho or mission to another:
food and housing were given with ever a
hearty welcome. In gentleman's home
it was customary to leave in the guest
cham Der a heap of silver coin covered by
cloth; from this, if the visitor were in
need. he was expected to supply his i'm
mediate wants. 1t was considered dis
graceful act for any member OF the house,
hold to count the guest silver. In 1929 a
young American travelling with a Span
ish party from Monterey to Los Angeles
astonished all by offering money for fruit
and other courtesies. A young Spanish
girl voiced the general feeling when
she exclaimed in contempt, Los Ingleses
pagan por todos," the English pay for

DEVINB DISCOVERS

He Makes Some Investigations, and
Grows Justly Indignant.
Trustee Devine was on the warpath
yesterday and last evening, and justly
so. Ii all the Trustees will join forces
with him there will possibly be some
immediate and striking reforms on the
streets.
Mr.. Devine first took under his observ-
alton a south-end residence street, and
than Lodi watermelons and thicker than
beetles in June. The official hunted up
the cobble distributor and gave him to
understand a few things.
Next the Trustee look ed into the glass
on the street. question, and presently
was carrying around double handful OF
the ugliest-looking broken glass from
shattered heavy insulators, sharp and
stout enough to cut q leg. This collection
he put into stout paper. and he swears by
the memory of his sire that he will find
out why this glass was on the street at
the corner OF Sixth and * streets.
If the Trustee had not been cut off by
darkness his search would have revealed
glass in alleys, glass in streets of low and
high grade, cinders, clinkers, cobbles,
rose thorns, bricks, boots. bottles and
rubbish every where, with gutter ways
choked with paper, vegetables, garden
trimmings, the wreck of tamales and the
remnants of old cans, porcelain pots and
vanq uished hats-indeed. anything else
he might desire to name-for all things
that should not be are to be found III the

SAN Francisco, July 18.-At the resi-
dence of the deceased, 110l California
street the funeral of Alban \. IoWne.
late General Manager OF the southern
Pacific Company, took place THIS siIer-
noon at 1:30 o'clock.
The assem- blage that gathered to pay
last tribute to the memory OF the ueao
was notable one, including as IL dlu
large number of prominent men. Inc
spacious residence was filled with the
mourners. Among them were the poor
as well as the rich, the mechanic and the
millionaire. The dead man had frlends
among them all.
Prominent in the throng which gath-
cred at the late residence OF the deceased
were many, in fact almost all, OF those
with whom he had been associated III the
management of the great railway enter
prises of which he had SO long held the
direction. But with them, TOO, were others,

had passed away. There were no mourn
6rs more sincere.
The air was laden with the perfume OF
flowers, and the large drawing-room was

been seen on such an occasion so beautl-
ful and tasteful display of floral trib-
utes. The casket, which rested on cata-
falque in this great apartment, was COW

fireplace was a bank OF natures gems

was piled high with choice cut flowers.
Floral locomotives, broken carwheels

the dead had followed through life, as
well as of the fact that that life was now
ended, were mingled with crosses and

The Methods of Dealing are Slow and
Not Always sure.
One bright afternoon last fall near de-
serted mill in the outskirts OF Chatta-
nooga, the following bit OF Tennessee bar
gaining was overheard: An aged negro,
driving an old, slowly moving mule
hitched to q two-wheeled dumpcart, came
along. He was bound TOR woodward
on the banks OF the Tennessee River near
by. where that muddy stream sweeps
around the foot of Cameron Hill and be-
oins curving graceful bow to bold Look
nut Mountain, which looms up before it.
Inst as the outfit crossed rlckety cul-
vert the negro was accosted with the
customary "Howde?" by lazy-iooking
native wearing jeans suit and broad
brimmed hat.
"Howde?" grunted the negro, as he
stonped his mule with a fierce jerk,
which sent the front of the cart against
the beasts launches and the shafts
higher than its ears.
When the cart had come to standstill
the young man took portly chew OF TO-
bacco. slowly adjusted his right loot on
tho INN of the cartw heel and with slow.
measured accents said:

"Yes. l reckon"
Then the languid young man picked up
stick and began whiting, and the
teamster sat in his cart for five minutes,
breaking the silence finally with:
"D'ye reckon you'll want jag OF
wood ?''
THAT'S wat I flowed l would, but l
dunno" replied the other.
There was another silence Of ten min
utes, broken only by the slash of the jack
knife through the yellow pine stick. A
horseman rode by ''tottin'" bag of
meal in front of the saddle. After the
usual speculation as to who the stranger
"mout be-" the whiting and the blank
staring processes continued for several
more minutes. Finally, when the stick
had been all whitfield away, the prospec-
tive purchaser saiu:

His foot fell laziiy upon the hub, the
wood-hauler ciucked to his mule, and the
two men went slowly their respective
