TRAINS NEED NOT CROSS

hitting a Crime Granted.

ALAMED CAL, Dec. 26-Tbe pro-
posed plan of q double-decked bridge
across the estuary has an opponent in
Lyman Bridges, the civil engineer. He
does not think the cars need to cross the
estuary at all. He says:
"a viaduct or tunnel should be the only
thing considered if there is any necessity
for railroad crossing the estuary. Cir
cumstances and conditions have changed
both in this city and Oakland since the
Alice and Webster streets bridges were
allowed for railway purposes.
1.-The Supervisors cannot afford to throw
away the peoples money in building a
bridge. Let the railroad company build
their own viaduct and tunnel if any is re-
quired by them, and let the Supervisors
expend public money for viaduct and
tunnel under Broadway. l have no doubt
that Alameda Will join and build a
boulevard from the south side of the estu-
airy to the avenues of this city.
II can't see the necessity of the steam
cars crossing the estuary anyway. With
the Pacific or Railroad avenue line turned
to the narrow-gauge pier and an exchange
OF tickets at the junction OF the Alameda
Electric Railway, with an hourly train via
Fruitvale to Park. street, our citizens
would be much better acco mmodated than
at present and no Alice-street bridge
would be required. If this bridge was re-
moved only the Webster-s treet bridge
would obstruct navigation, and this only
until the Broadway tunnel could be built.
/ should think the people would not toler-
ate any double-decked or second.story
bridges"
Heroism Rewarded.
ALAMEDA, CAL, Dec. 26.-The gold
medals purchased by public subscription,
for their heroism in the rescue of old John
Baker, clam digger, early last spring,
were presented to Miss Vida Mexican and
Miss Dora Patterson yesterday. E. Clark
and Al Cooper, VINO originated the idea of
the medals, presented them. The ladies
were greatly pleased with the gift, and to-
day gave out the following card of thanks:
Not being able to thank individually the
citizens Of Alameda for the beautiful medals
they received on Christmas morning, Dora
Patterson and Vida Mexican wish to express
their hearty thanks through the columns of
this paper. They feel that they have done
nothing worthy OF SO handsome a reward, but
many who have contributed toward the
medals, which they value SO highly.
Coleman Was Accomm cd ated.
ALAMEDA, CAL, Dec. 26-Thomas
Coleman, seedy LOOKING individual, ap-
peared at the City Prison this morning
and demanded to be locked up. He said
if he was not accommodated he would
rob the Alameda Bank. As he had de-
termined look in his eyes and acted as if
he would attempt to carry out his threat,
Officer Conrad at once accommodated
him. When placed behind the bars he
seemed to be considerably relieved. Cole
man afterward stated that he did not
know why he did not carry out the at
tempt without coming to the police
station.

every reason to feel encouraged, for
the outlook is most cheering.

of oppression is lettering and evident

this country will neither submit to
endless taxation, nor to further fall

no other way can it be upheld. We
must either go on borrowing gold in

The Lovely Woman.

Bishop j. II. Vincent recently
made the following statement:
"a lovely woman is Il woman who,
without articles, WINS the love of
those who know her best; the woman
who has strength and symmetry of
personal character; who follows a
true and lofty ideal with Il firm will,
and who adjusts herself with grace to
the sphere which becomes her. She
may be required to do what we call
outside work for he living and for the
support of those dependent upon her;
but the womanly quality is so mani
fest in all her movements and spirit
that the demands Of business and of
society never mar the gentleness, the
firmness, the purity which are always
associated in the minds OF wise men
with the true ideal of womanhood

Leap Year.

Why is it called leap year? 1t is
because the Julian calendar in which
the custom Of adding day to Febru-
airy every fourth year was introduced,
provided that the additional day
should be inserted not at the end of
the month. but six days earlier, form
ing a second sixty day. Hence arose
the word bissextile, which is still re-.
tanned as the name of the year in
which the additional day is inserted,
though now it is added at the end of
the month. The name leap year re-
fers to the fact that for year after
the insertion of the additional day
each date comes two days later in
the week than it came the previous
year, instead Of on the following day
of the week, as in ordinary years.
The dates may be said to leap over a
day, and hence the name.-Ex.

he'd suffered at the hands of the
Water Co. and hoodlums of Carson.
Ex-Governor Adams, Judge Hawley
and others testified to Langeyin's
sanity, and Drs. Herrick and Fox
swore that they had not sufficient evil
dence to warrant LaDgeviD being
held. st the conclusion of the evil
dence, Judge Mack promptly dis.
charged Langevin and took occasion
to say that he considered it a disgrace
to those who had annoyed Langevin.
The evidence, as published in the
Appeal, reveals state of affairs that
should bring the blush of shame to
every honorable man and woman in
Carson. The decent citizens of the
Capital city owe it not only to their
own good name, but to the people of
