Ii You
Were
About
To Go By

To go buy a Bicycle, don't do so I'M
til you first know it were wise TO give
OURS the ego by Why we sell so
many Bicycles is no mystery, for the
names Rambler Columbia and
'Stearns" are known TO every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
and about everybody in the Islands
knows that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
We will not say much about the
''Stearns" this time, as the lot of '97
wheels which left New York on Febru-
airy 10th, did not catch the Australia"
and you do not want to hear about
wheel you cannot see, so we will tell
you about them when they get here
But if you want a pretty mount, some
thing up to date, come in and see orr
80 "Columbias" and "Ramblers;" but
come quick, as we have sold over half
of the lot just received, and we are sure
TO be out of both makes before we can
get a good look at them ourselves.
We will have just forty-four (4D BIZ
cycles on the Australia" when she gets
here on March Goth, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by TO
buy a wheel because we have not got
the stock TO show them.
Our "Columbias" this year, as we'll
as our 'Ramblers," are fitted with the
well-known G.. & J. tires. This tire has
proved to be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and if you get the gen
uine G.. & J. tire you get what you need
: for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G.. & J. tire is sold by the
Rambler Agency here. and is fitted
TO wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said to be G. & j. and look
just the same, but you won't want more
ehan one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest to you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
"Columbias," the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies
"Ramblers;'' in fact, you will find lots
10 interest you, and you are welcome TO
examine any wheel to your hearts con-
tent. even if you have no idea of buy
ing. We have just added largely to
our stock of sundries-such as Lamps,
BELLS. Luggage Carriers. Bike Stands,
FnameIs. etc-and we can fit you out
with about anything you need.
FOR THE BEST of everything in the
wheeling line, go to

CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. 23.-A delicate
and dangerous operation OF trepanning
has been performed on Mrs. c. H. Krause,
the divorced wife of C. H. Krause, man
ager of the Tlvoi Opera house, San
Francisco, to overcome her suicidal
mania, and the patient is doing well and
seems on the road to recovery. About
ten days ago Mrs Krause. who gave her
name as Millie McDonaId-the name she
was known Dy when she sang in the
Tivoh chorus-attemE Eted TO Kill herself
with the buckle of her garter and lacer-
ated her throat in the attempt At the
Detention Hospital, to which she was
taken, Mrs. Krause from time TO time
would grow suddenly morose, and she
confessed to a physician that at such
times her whole mind was possessed with
a more or less uncomfortable desire to
slash or main herself win a sharp instru-
ment OF some kind.
Sue was tried for her sanity and the
Jury decided that she was mentally un-
balanced, but DR.. El bert Z. Fortner ply
scian at the hospital became interested
in the case and called upon DR.. Thomas

that was too high and l wouldn't pay it;
besides l diu not have that amount about

Powers keenly feels his position and he
paced up and down his CELL thinking in
tently and waiting for some relief He
said that when he hired the rig he did so
for the purpose OF going out into the
country collecting for the firm he was
EN- ployed by. He refused 10 state the
name of his employer. He says he can
prove that he was collecting and deni S
that he said ne wanted the rig to take
any one out riding.
In regard to the charge that when he
got back to San Rafael, he asked the way
to Sausalito, he says it is not true; that
he was only on his way to Fairfax, a short
distance away, and that he intended to
come back to the stable with the horse
and buggy.
Murray the stableman, says that as yet
no pay for the zig has come to light. The
horse and buggy were in good CONDITION
when they were finally returned.
Matthew Canavan said to-day that he
offered TO go on Powers bond because he
hac met him in Sacramento. but that he
knew nothing about the Asse mbly mans
trouble except what he had heard on the
streets.

prison this afternoon and left for the pur-
pose of getting bondsmen so that he would
not be compelled to spend another night

Murray was seen at his stables to-day by
The CALL representative and asked to give
his reasons why he had had the Assem-
blyman arrested. He stated that Powers
came to his stables on the 18th inst. and
said he wished to hire horse and buggy
to take his partner and his wife out for a
buggy ride. Powers, according to Murray
represented himself as a collector for a
cigar house. 1t was 11:20 A. NJ. when Pow
ers left the stable with the rig, which he
had hired for half day. When a day or
so had passed and no Powers Che gave the
name Ryan to the liveryman) had made
his appearance, Murray thought it time to
investigate, and he telephoned to Peta-
luna and Santa Rosa to learn if his horse
and buggy were there, but failed to locate
them.
Last Friday Murray received telegram
from Santa Rosa to the effect that Powers
would bring the rig back the next morn
ing. However, the rig did not come and
that evening information reached the liv
ervman that Powers had inquired the way
to Sausalito and when informed had left
in that direction with Murray'S horse and
buggy.
j. j. M urray, the OlSlrlCh Attorney as
slstant and a son of the liveryman, left
last night after Powers and the rig. He
found them in front of saloon near West
End station, in the western part of San
Rafael. and brought them back. Powers
was placed under arrest as Jonn Doe, as it
was not at that time known who he
really was. That he was the same man
who figured in thelegislative scandal that
disgraced the last session only developed
to-day when he attempted to get bonds
men.
Matthew Canavan, Marin's representa-
tive in the Assembly, was appealed to by
Powers to-day TO go on his bond, which
Judge Rodden had placed at 500 Canavan
said that he would do this, and all day to-
day Powers has been seeking for Eome one
else to go on the bond with Canavan, so
that he can secure his liberty

SANTA R0SA hRS0R CASE.
Joseph B. Reed, Wealthy Citizen,
Is Charged With Attempting to
Burn His Own Buildino.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, Sept. 23.-An hon
ored citizen and a man of means, Joseph
B. Reed, was arrested here this afternoon,
charged with an attempt to commit arson.
The complaint was sworn to by B. NJ Nc
Donald. who lives next door to the house
in question. Reed EXPRESSED great sur
prise at his arrest and claims to be inno-
cent of the charge. The circumstances
leading to the arrest are as follows:
On Wednesday morning, about O'Clock,
Melville Bonham and boy named Cardi-
net, who live near the corner of Cleveland
and College avenues. say they saw Mr..
Reed drive up to the house with a box
and gunny-sack in his buggy. About 9
o. clock C. n. Darlington, a real estate
man, took Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Collins TO
the house with a view OF renting it to
them. When they entered the house thev
detected the smell of Kerosene A few
minutes later, on going to a room in the
rear OF the house, they discovered a
lighted candle and at the base of the
candle lot OF newspapers saturated with
oil, beside which was lot of inflamma BILE
stuff. The floor and walls OF the room
were saturated with coal oil, and the onIy
window which furnished light to the room
was darkened with a gunny-sack which
had been tackled over it.
The real estate agent extinguished the
burning candle, but did not disturb any
thing else in the room. He observed that
the windows IN the connecting rooms
were open, which indicated that the un-
known firebug meant that his scheme
should not fail for lack of draft. He
called in a neighbor, Mrs. Mcdonald. to
see the state OF affairs, and leaving things
as they had found them the party drove
downtown and informed the City Mar
shall.
An officer was placed on guard to watch
for the guilty party should he return, but
no one appeared Wednesday or Wednes-
day night; but THURSDAY forenoon Mrs.
Mcdonald says she saw Reed drive up to
the house with a ladder in his buggy.
She says he took the ladder into the
house and a few minutes after she saw
him drive away. INN mediately alter he
was gone she went to the house and saw
that the candle had been taken away.
This is the evidence upon which the
warrant for Mr.. Reeds arrest was made.
The house Is a one-story cottage and
was without tenant. 1t and the barn
were insured for 500. Reed owned it, be-
sides other property in the same part of
town. He is related 10 some of the best
people here and has always borne a good
reputation. His friends believe that un-
less he is mentally un balanced it does not
seem possible for him 10 have committed
arson. He was released this evening on
his own recognlZance. His preliminary
examination will be held Friday morn.
