relieve. Year by year she was treated
with various medicines, external appli-
cations and internal remedies, without
result. Her sufferings were intense,
and her condition grew steadily worse.

In an old pamphlet which was dis

mile; with stone blocks, wood bearers
and plate rail, of which the cost OF iron
was 81. 524 the cost would be $s.IIs

This engineer speculated on two ton
loads and one ton cars, and said in his
report that the B & O. would be doing
very rash thing if they went beyond
this point.
He also says "The locomotive en-

Baltimore road, made by Mr. Winans
to run on friction carriage. though
of moderate power, has great useful

to patent outside journals and to re-

George Sullivan, who resides at the
Armes residence on the San Lorenzo
road, got big surprise Friday evening
which resulted in the smart capture OF a
clever burglar. He was driving from the
depot to his home when he saw young
man coming along the road wearing his
(Sullivan's) new summer oyercoat.
Sullivan could not arrest the man or
swear to his coat merely by having seen
II, so he drove home, and on Arriving at
the Armes residence he discovered that
the bureau drawers and trunks had been
sorted out and everything OF value that
was portable had been taken Sullivan
had only been from the house about an
hour and half and had driven Mrs.
Armes to the depot. He must have been
watched by the burglar, who entered the
house as soon as the party had left.
Sullivan drove into town, enlisted the
services of Constable Gallet, and the two
started out 10 find the burglar. They
drove many miles on different roads and
questioned many people, but could not
ind the young gentleman wearing Mr..
Sulllvan's oyercoat. They started toward
Oakland, when they met a tramp who
told them he had seen a neatly dressed
stranger with light overcoat about hall
a mile along the load.
GalIet and Sullivan drove along speed.
lily and the latter soon saw a figure ahead
Of him wearing his summer overcoat.
The stranger was much astonished when
told that he was under arrest, and as soon
as the oVercoat was thrown open 1t was
seen that he Lad also appropriated Mr..
Sullivan's best suit.
A search of his pockets brought to light
two watches, an opera-glass, several ring,
some studs, a case of razors. jewel-case
and several other things of value, all oil
which had been in the Armes residence &
short time before.
The man was taken into town and locked
up. He gave the name first OF Smith and
then of Jensen, and will have a preiimi'
nary examination on Monday.
The young fellow answers the descrip,
ton OF man who was very badly wanted
last summer. He made living by going
into farmhouses and helping himself
when the residents were out.
On one occasion he managed to find S6C
in a ranch house near Decoto at time
when the rancher and his wife were at.
tending a experimenting in the church q
mile away. At this time he laid table,
helped himself TO everything that was
good in the Iarder, and left q note OF
thanks, in which he stated that with tbs
aid of the money he had found he would

was starting out on the same kind of a

NO HOME FIT FOR
THE PR|NCIP Al
San Lorenzo Discovers Why
the Town Does Not
Grow.
Principal Doyal Not High Toned,
but There Is Net a Home
to Spare.
Business Men Take the Matter Ur
and Decide Upon a Rarid
Change.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALI

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
908 Broadway, May %.
San Lorenzo is in serious trouble. For
a long time past it has been the desire of
the residents that the principal of their
public school should reside in the town.
Prin cipal DoyaI now comes forward with
statement that there is not an available
house ia San Lorenzo in which he can re-
side.
Mr.. Doyal has been very unfavorably
criticised because of his refusal to estab-
lish himself and family among the pupils
of the school. The matter has been laid
before the trustees and the impression has
gone forth that while Principal Doyai i
not too independent TO draw his salary
from the little town of San Lorenzo,
he prefers g wider social sphere than tn
little town at the end of the electric
branch road can afford. During the past
week the matter has been discussed and
Principal Doyai gave as his reason for MOI
living In tbe little town that he had tried
to get suitable house tor himself and
family, but could not find one. An inves-
tigation showed that the objection of the
principal was not without foundation.
At the present time there is not vacant
house in the town in which any one
would ask his school principal to reside.
There are few tum ble-d down places wi b
ITO LETT sign in the window, but not one
in which the principal of pubic school
could reside with dignity.
This lack of accom- N odation will shortly
rebound TO the benefit of the town. II
has opened the eyes OF the people to the
fact that the town will never grow unless
new houses are built occasionally, and a
movement is on foot to stir Ip men Of
wealth who have interests st San Lorenzo
and induce them to make conditions such
that Principal DoyaPs reason Tor not liv-
ing where he earns his salary will nc
longer hold good.
