MORE BATTERY DEMONSTRATIONS

The Felts Battery Now Burning Elec-
tric Lights and Operating Motors.
AT the Felts Primary Battery Com
pany's Office in Changers building, on
Tenth street. near K, there is now a de-
cided attraction.
1t will be remembered from reports in
these columns that a new Felts battery
WAS started up May 2Sth. 1t has there
fore now been in operation about nine
days. During that time electric lights
have been operated every evening except
Sundays for an average of three hours,
and from one to three hours each day.
Monday and Tuesday OF this week q
number OF electric motors of various
sizes up to one-horse power have been
brought in and operated,
Although the battery registers about
half-horse power, 1t runs the one-horse
power motor at a lair speed. A great many
people drop in to see the ex hi bit, and those
who know anything about primary bat
terles are amazed at the exhibition of the
power and endurance of the battery
On Monday morning of this week, at
1870 O'Clock, small motor was con-
nected up to cell of battery as a test of
the endurance OF the battery. 1t ran con-
tinuously until 8 p. NJ, thirteen and one
half hours; Tuesday morning, at $50
o'clock, it was again started, and is run
ming at this writing, making in all
twenty-five hours without showing any
sign of weakening. Nothing has been,
or will be, done to the cell, say the
company, except to compensate for loss
caused by evaporation. This test will be
appreciated when it is generally known
that cell or cells from any other battery
in use cannot be made to run a motor
continuously longer than from three to
six hours.

of His Accident

He Dies in Oakland From the Effects
of His Accident.
Ex-State Senator l.. W. Buck died in
Oakland yesterday from the effects of a
fall from q cart on Saturday last. He was
not conscious at any time after the acct
dent
The shock to Mrs. Buck has been so
severe that it is feared her mind may be
affected. Here in Sacramento, where Mr..
Buck had for several years made his
headquarters as manager of the CaiifOr-
MIA Fruit Union, the news of the accident
and of his death caused widespread sor-
row. He was very popular here, and in
fact wherever known.
For two terms he represented Solano
County IN the State Senate. and was one
of the Leading LENDERS of that BODY on
each occasion. He was for eight years
manager of the California Fruit Union.
and his regime was very successful.
Deceased was born in Trenton, Court
land County, n. Y, on July s. 1884. He
married in 1856, and his widow survives
him. In 1865 he went to Clinton, Iowa.
but nine years later removed to Vaca-
vile, Solano County, where he settled
and for thirteen years WAS actively en-
gagged in the fruit business. He had a
large ranch there and one at Lodi. His
specially was peach raising, and he was
accepted as an authority in that depart
ment Of horticulture. He moved to Oak
land in 1887.
The deceased enlisted in the army dur
ing the war, and was commissioned First
Lieutenant of the One Hundred and
Fifty-Seventh Regiment of New York
Volunteers in 1862. Ill health compelled
him to resign year later. Senator Buck
was director of the Vacaville Bank
He leaves a fair competency. There
are besides the widow, five surviving
children. Mrs. J. B. Cory of Lodi, Emma
L.. Anna M. Fred M. and Frank II.
Buck.
Senator Buck was member of Vallejo
Commandery, Knights Templar. That
organization has been notified of his

ADJUSTMENTS.

The second of Leavitt's speciality COM
panies appeared again at the Clunie
Opera-house last night. 1t is growing in
favor as it improves on acquaintance.
The only difficulty about it is that the
first of the troupes was too large, strong
and good for the prices charged, and that
no such large and varied a troupe can be
kept with 10, 20 and 30-cent prices of adj
and hence company of less
variety and excellence is contrasJed to
its disadvantage with it's predecessor.
The troupe will appear again tonight.
There are three features in it alone worth
the price OF admission, the trained dogs,
the tight-rope performance and the police
man and nursery maid act.
