But amid a roar of laughter the
Chairman declared the board would
take recess.
SOLANO UNDER FIRE.
The afternoon was devoted to taking
Solano County to task for a sweeping
reduction of $1.50O,OOO in her tax-roll.
Sheriff B. F. Rush, Assessor Charles
Chimer, Supervisors George Clark and
Hugh buckingham and Lawyer George
A. Lamont were the Solanoists who
stood the fire from the State Equaliz-
ers.
Assessor Chimer declared that the
value of property all over his county
had declined fully 80 or 30 per cent
Being fully imbued with this belief, he
had made a reduction of about 10 per
cent. on all the lands in the county.
Controller Colgan wanted to know
whether the Assessor had made the de-
crease of assessment on the basis of the
10 per cent given them by the State
Board last year.
Chimer replied that it was not. He
had made it believing conscientiously
Hard times were responsible for it.
AT this point Equalizer Arnold took
up his cue and wanted to know what
the total of solvent credits throughout
the county We're.
By reference to memoranda he re-
piled, "Fifty-five thousand dollars
Now, how do you reconcile this, -
asked his inquisitor, with the fact that
you have two banks alone, the Bank of
Dixon ard the Bank of Suisun, which
have in solvent credits $140,000?"
1t was the same old snag on which so
many other Assessors had stranded.
| and Assessor Chimer was glad to
change the subject to real estate again.
Chairman Morehouse wanted someone
to convince him that there was no land
in the vicinity of Vacaville worth more
than 5000 per acre. He gave his desire
a practical turn by asking Mr.. Buck
| ingham if he would take $500 an acre
for his land.
That gentleman replied that he would
not, but retorted by asking why it was
the best Butte County orange orchard
was only worth $50 per acre, and a
Vacaville peach orchard was thought to
Now, here" interrupted Equalizer
Beamer, lust because Mr.. Arnold yes
terday found one little, measly orange
orchard up there and jumped upon it
with both feet. is no reason for you peo-
i pie TO complain
(! Assessor Chimer stated that five
years ago he assessed some land about
| Vacaville at 5000 per acre, and there
! was no complaint, but now the same
persons complained of $3.50 and 5000
| per acre. He was willing to confess
| that the boom at Nacaville had bursted.
and the people were suffering from it.
Mr.. Beamer announced that the board
was about winded, as Soiano was just
over the fence from Yolo, and the same
questions had been gone over. AT this
! the investigation closed.

A Monster Jubilee Pie.

A large assemblage of visitors was
attracted to DENLY Dale, says the New
castle Chronicle, when the gigantic
pie with which the inhabitants COM
memorated the Corn Law Jubilee was
cut and served. The pie contained
1920 pounds of beef, 1S0 pounds OF
veal, 112 pounds of mutton. sixty
pounds of lamb and the crust was
made of 1920 pounds OF flour and 100
pounds of lard. The pie was prepared
by ladies of the village, assisted by ].
w. Spivey and +. Dearnley.
The meat was first cooked separate
ly, then put into dish of three.
eighth-inch steel plates, ten feet long,
six feet six inches wide, one foot deep
and weighing about half ton. This
was specially made by w. @. Holmes
Il Co., Of Huddersfeld. The crust was
then put over the meat, and the whole
pie was baked in an oven thirteen feet
long, nine feet wide and two feet high
inside, specially designed and con-
structcd by Allott Brothers, of DENLY
Dale. The gross weight of the pie
and dish was about 1000 pounds. The
load was conveyed on Saturday morn
ing from the oven to Norman Park on
wagon drawn by fourteen horses
and was on view in the park till 4
o'clock in the afternoon. At o'clock
there was procession OF walters.
committee and the DENLY Dale Brass
Band to Norman Park. Sixpence was
charged for admission to the park, and
shilling for admission to the inclos-
ure, which entitled the visitor to a
specially designed plate containing q
portion of the pie.
w. Wood, n member of the commit.
tee, presented to Frank Naylor, tho
President, q pair Of monster csrvers
(the knife being thirty-three inches
long and the fork twenty-five inches),
with buck horn handles and silver
mountings. Mr.. Mayor cut the first
portion of the pie, and other members
of tho committee served portions to
the people assembled. The bulk OF
the pie was soon disposed of. A fire.
works display closed the proceedings.
The receipts were in aid of the local
charities.

Everybody knows that abroad, and
especially in France, horseless car
riages have been used with entire sue.
cess, and the long distance trials be-
tween the capital and Bordeaux have
amply demonstrated the fact that the
new class of gasoline motors are both
practical and efficient. 1t may
not be so well known that our
American mechanics are also ac-
lively engaged upon the problem, but
an examination of recent number Of
n trade periodical devoted to the in.
terests of automobile locomotion re-
veals the astonishing fact that no
fewer than thirty-five manufacturers
nre preparing to place self.propelling
carriages upon the market during the
coming year. In the same number
are described and illustrated over
eighty plans for the application of
power for street and road propulsion,
the various systems, including steam,
electricity, both storage and dynamic,
coiled springs, and oil and gas engines.
1t is true that the recent road trials
at Chicago and Yonkers weSe not re-
markably successful, but enough has
been accomplished to show that
horseless locomotion is n possibility
in the near future, and with the ex.
tension of the good roads system it is
n certainty. The remarkable advance
in bicycle construction, including the
use of light steel frames, ball bearings
and pneumatic tires, has been an i'm
portant factor in bringing about this
result, development almost as i'm
portant in its bearing upon social con-
ditions rs was the invention of the
steam locomotive. And, after all, the
steam railway is only siSty-five years
old, while the trolley is thing of yes
terday. Truly this is tine end of the
century.
