Winter Works,

The plans for water works in Aberdeen,
have been submitted to the town commission
ers by II. NJ Sands, of Pottsville, Pa, and
have been accepted. Bids for constructing
the system were to be opened today at the
Office of the commissioners, in that town.
The sale of bonds for the construction OF
the water works and electric light plant,
authorized by the town, 10 the amount OF
SIS coo. will take place next month 1t is the
desire of the commissioners that the construc-
ton of the water works begin as carly next
month as possible, Us the contract will de-
mand ompletion by July next.
The specifications call for the erection Of
stand pipe 100 feet high, and Is in diameter, to
hold $40, COO gallons of water. Thirty fire
ydrants Will be placed in different portions
of the town. The reservoir will be upon
what is familarly known as the old Hall
Park Farm, about one mile north OF the town,
upon which springs are located that will sup
ply 90 gallons Of water per minute. That
town has long been badly In need Of water
for protection in case of fire. About five
years ago a great many new dwellings were
built there, but little was done to secure a
water supply. Invitations have often been
extended to manufacturers to locate there, but
the FIRST question they ask is concerning the
water supply, and this alone has kept the
town from improving as rapidly as it should.
At present, in some portions of the town, as
many as 10 to IS families use water from one
well.
The springs which supply the water for the
town are on the farm owned by Conrad
krouse, and which, during the Revolutionary
times, was owned by man named Hall, who
built a large mansion there. But the raVages
of time have left nothing but the springs to

JEWISH COLONISTS.
Duped by Schemer to Emigrate to
California.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 4.-Some
months ago E. Deinard, who claimed to
be the accredited representative of the
Jewish Colonization Society Of the
United States, with headquarters at
Philadelphia, made his appearance in
this city and attempted to interest a
number of the prominent Hebrews in a
scheme to colonize Government lands
in this State. For obvious reasons
those to whom Deinard ap
pealed for assistance discouraged his
efforts and he returned East.
Nothing more was heard of the
scheme until a few days ago when
letters of inquiry began to pour in
upon Rabbi Eoorsanger and others
from Hebrews in Philadelphia. AS the
advices stated that forty Jewish fami-
lies were on the eve of departure for
California and asked what provision
had been made for them, DR.. VOor-
sanger made an investigation, with the
result that he was unable to discover
that any lands had been taken up by
the society referred to, or any other
provision made for the would be col
onsts. He is emphatically of the opin-
ion that the step proposed by the Phil
adelphians will result disastrously, and
has telegraphed to his correspondents
there to that effect and advised them
to deter the cOlOnists from disposing of
their property until something more
definite is known of their plans.

NEW YORK, May 4.-Solly Smith of

Lowell, Mass, met tonight in twenty
five-round glove contest at 122 pounds
before the Broadway Athletic Club.
Both fought to the limit, and each of
them was ready and willing to continue

but the referee decided in favor of the
Western man, although Smith had
dropped to his knees frequently during
the bout to avoid Flahertys rushes

GRANTED A NEW TRIAL.
Decision of the Supreme Court in the
Redfield Will Contest.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 4.-The Su-

in the contest over the viii Of Mrs.
Mary A. Redfeld, which has been
pending in the local courts for the past
five years.
Mrs. Redfield left an estate valued

of unsound mind when she executed the

At the trial the evidence Of unsound-
ness of mind showed only that Mrs.

however, was sufficient to lead a jury

REARING OF CHILDREN.
Subject of DisCussio at the Woman
Parliament at Ventura.

VENTURA, May 1.-The Methodist
Church was we'll filled this afternoon
with the delegations from abroad and
many interested at home who assem-
bled to attend the opening exercises OF
the thirteenth session of the Woman
Parliament of Southern California
The President, Mrs. Kate t. Galpin,
presided. The exercises opened with
the singing of the hymn Nearer, My
God, to Thee" which was followed by
a prayer by Mrs. Kyle of Pasadena.
Mrs. Severance of Los Angeles read
a paper entitled The Cry Of Little
Children" She urged watchfulness,
great care of their health and the
fitting of them for the pursuits of their
inclination, and that which nature
adapts them for.
Reading for Young People, was the
subject of paper read by Mrs. Varlel
of Los Angeles, advocating such pri-
mary instruction as the child takes in
terest in and as the mind expands, to
be followed by literature of the highest
and purest order, novels being exclud-
ed. Mrs. Variel concluded her paper
with the remark that too much care
cannot be taken when young, as early
impressions are lasting.
At the evening session a paper en-
titled Mothers and Daughters" was
read by Mrs. Ludlum of San Diego. She
said the contention is that great writ
ers of English fiction have had very
little to say upon the tender and gra-
cious relationship of mother and
daughter, citing Shakespeare, Scott
as lukewarm,. while Hawthorne and
COble have struck deeper, richer notes
upon this theme. The great epic of
mother and daughter love yet remains
to be written.
The session then adjourned until to-
morrow morning

MARYSVILLE, May "A lasting in
terest viii attach to the present ses-
sion of the Grand Court of Foresters,
for the reason that there are a num-
Der of important fraternal matters to
be discussed and definitely acted upon
also. that a number of the more prom
inent offices are to be contested, and
last, but not least, because the people
of Marysville have eXerted themselves
in assisting the local court to mani
fest a spirit of hospitality which has
always been something of a boast in
the history of the old town.
The festivities began late last night
with a shower of rockets, a Japanese
illumination and the band. Over 100
delegates from the South were welcom-
ed and domiciled. This morning many
of the visitors We're driven over the
country.
The business of the day was very
speedily transacted. Shortly after 10
o'clock the Grand Court was called to
order by J. S. w. Saunders, G.. S. c. r.,
in the absence of Grand Chief Ranger
Vellage. The usual committees were
appointed, and an adjournment taken
until o'clock tomorrow morning.
At l o'clock there was a parade which
comprised the local and Grand Courts,
the Knights of Sherwood Forest of
Grass Valley, an appropriate float and
a large delegation of citizens. After
the parade, which terminated in Cortez
Square, the keys of the city were form
ally presented to the Grand Court Off
GERS, and music and song was followed
by speech-making.
In the evening the streets We're illu-
minated and later an entertainment
was presented at the theater
The most active work is being done
by the representatives of the towns
seeking the Grand Court Those from
San Luis Obispo, Haywards and
Healdsburg are not leaving anything
undOne to convince the delegates of the
business of their respective claims. Not
q few of the delegates say that it is
likely that all viii be disappointed, as
it is highly probable that a pending
constitutional amendment will be
adopted making biennial sessions. Then,
too. the contingent in favor of perma-
nent location in San Francisco is large.
There is talk of change in the Grand
Secretary's office, but it is generally
conceded that the present officer will
hold, but that the Grand Court will
reserve the authority to designate as
sistants.
The amusements for tomorrow en-
brace concerts and an Illuminated BIZ

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1.-The San

Railroad gained an important technical
victory to-day in the hearing before
the State Railroad Commission of the
charge of discrimination brought by the
Union Transportation Company.
The gist of the complaint of the
Union Company is that the Valley rail-
road favors its competitors in bay and
river traffic, the California Navigation
and Improvement Company, in making
connecting rates" To prove its case
the Union Company called upon the
Valley Railroad to produce the contract
with the California Navigation Com
pany.
At its meeting to-day the Railroad
Commission, through Chairman La
Rue. announced that no law exists to
compel the production Of the contract.

sundry civil appropriation bill. There
was added interest in the controversy
from the fact that Foraker is a new
conner, and this was his maiden effect.
1t occurred when Foraker offered an
amendment aDpropriating S4OO,OOO for
the Tennessee River. This Gave Cor
man text for a severe criticism of reck-
less extravaganza in appropriations.
There was something of a stir when
Foraker rose to reply to German. He be-
gan with mild criticism of German for
attempting, as he said, to instruct Sena-
tors as to their duty to the country. The
Ohio Senator then spoke of the policy
of the Republican party as to the tariff
and maintained that the tariff policy Of
the Republicans was speaking for itself
tongue can speak" He assured the Sen
ator from Maryland that the Republican
Administration would raise sufficient
revenue to meet the needs of the Gov
eminent without resOrting to bond is
sues, and at the same time he would
guarantee that there would be no unne-
cessary or eXtravagant expenditures.
German replied in a jocular vein and
spoke of Foraker as zone of the great
host from Ohio" and expressed surprise
that the Senator from the State send
ing us President should be the first
to urge an increase of half million dol
lars in the appropriations
Upon Allison's objection, Foraker
finally withdrew his amendment.
A final vote upon the free homestead
bill was taken at 3 o'clock and the bill
passed-42 to II. The negative vote
was: Chiffon. Clay German, Hawley,

taken to the Supreme Court, and the
case was heard twice before a decision
was reached.
In considering the appeal the court
finds there was not evidence enough
to show insanity on the part of Mrs.
Redfield. 1t holds that parsimony and
fancy did not constitute insanity. The
fact that Mrs. Redfield managed her
husbands estate after his death so it
increased from $4,000 to $4,000 in
eight years is also taken by the court
as evidence of her sanity These points
are accepted as sufficient to warrant a
