Unexpectedly at his home on n street,
near Eighth, yesterday. He was IL
years of age, and for some time past
had been in feeble health, but his de-
mise was not looked for Heart dis
ease was the cause of his sudden TAX
ing off.
AS early as 1850 Mr. Gray kept the
Fourteen-M Mile House on the Auburn

NEVER CAME BACK"
An Alleged Drummer Gets Away
With a Horse and Buggy.

J. w. Wilson & Son are minus horse
and buggy. The outfit was hired on
Thursday morning by a man who said
his name was Shane and who claimed
to be travelling for some business firm.
He said he had some collections TO
make and considerable running about
to do.
The man had not shown up, however,
when night came, but it was thought
he would return the outfit during the
evening. He did not, nor had he been
seen up to late last night. The
Messrs. Wilson learned that he passed
Twelfth and / streets shortly after hir-
ing the horse and buggy, and that he
was heading toward the Haggin ranch.
The horse is a bay, 9 years old, four
teen hands high, and weighs about 900
pounds. The Buggy is of the open,
business style, newly painted and red.
1t was made by Embree, McLane &
Co., ST. Louis.

Correction of an Annoying Rumor
From Los Angeles.

Recently a report gained currency
here that John A. Casselman, formerly
of this city, had murdered his wife in
Los Angeles. Just how the story got
out is not known, but in order to settle
the matter, Allen w. Casselman, BROTH
er of the alleged wife-slayer wrote a
letter of inquiry to Chief of Police
Glass of Los Angeles. Chief Glass re-
sponded as follows, under date of the
4th:
Allen w. Casselman, Esq, Sacra-
mento-Dear Sir: Your letter of the I'd
instant received and contents noted.
There is no truth in the report that
has reached you that your brother,
John A. Casselman, has killed his wife.
1 have had correspondence recently
with others in Sacramento, who had
heard this report.
THE party who started the report
had evidently heard of the John Bar
thelman case. John Barthelman shot
and killed his wife in this city last
November, and has been arrested, con-
victed of murder in the first degree, but
his case is now on appeal to the Su-
preme Court
He was a sewing machine agent,
and he and his wife had lived for a
time in Sacramento before coming
here and your informant no doubt
heard something about the case, and
thought the name was Casselman, in
stead of Barthelman.
THE picture you inclose does not re-
semble Barthelman in the least. The
maiden name of the woman who was
killed was Mable Genne Holden

THOSE WATER WORKS.
Washingtonians Undecided as to
Who Will Construct Them.


The little town of Washington, on
the Yolo side of the river has suffered
severely from fires within the past few
years, and since the confiagration of a
year ago, when an entire block of
buildings were swept away, a move
ment has been on foot with a view TO
erecting waterworks for local protec-
ton
The village is not Incorporated, and
under the circumstances there was
nothing TO do but form a stock COM
pany and attempt TO get the property
owners of the village to subscribe.
The several conferences held resulted
in the organization of the Washington
Water and Light Company, with VIM.
Wilson President, and Eli Fourness,
William Stiegler, Hugo Frommelt, JOS
eph Shaw and Thomas De Croft, Direc-
tors. The property owners were at
first charry of subscribing, but came in
one at time until at present between
forty and fifty own shares in the COM
pany.
The Directors have chosen a site for
the erection of the proposed works, and
some time ago took bids from Shaw, In
gram. hatcher & Co, of this city and
San Francisco firm for their construc-
ton.
The Directors met in executive sess-
ion last evening to examine the two
bids, but will not, it is understood
award contract until the shareholders
shall all have been consulted.
Some said last night that possibly
all bids may in the end be rejected, ana
the company construct its own works,
including mains, under the supervision
of one of its stockholders. 1t was OPEN
ly stated that unless the bidders sail
close to the wind there will be no con-
tract let.
The meeting last evening was purely
executive and the Directors gave out
that nothing definite would result.

Address to the Graduates.

Prof A. B. Crawford addressed the
graduating class of the High school last
Sunday evening, on The Perspective in
Education The hall was well filled at
730, when, to the strains of a march
played by j. F. O'Brien, about 100 of the
students of the school entered the hall
They were followed by the class which
enters this fall. The graduates and teachers
had seats upon the stage, which was taste
fully decorated. Rev. +. f. Marggraf,
superintendent of schools, offered PRAYER
and read the scriptures. Music was furn-
ished by the choir of the Congregational
church. Prof. Crawford's address was
both scholarly and practical. He said it
was not the boy or the girl here, but the
young man or maiden yonder for whom the
teacher is working. 1t is not the amount
IF information which can be crammed into
che students head during a specific time;
hut the result, at the end of the course, in
he formation of character and the power
thinking He earnestly besought the
cooperation of the parents in the work. He
spoke of the lamentable practice, so preva-
lent in our schools, of removing children
from school before the completion of their
course, for the purpose of setting them to
earn the almighty dollar. We must not
hasten, but make careful preparation.
Make the vessel stanch and sea-worthy; be
sure there are no flaws; take care that the
cargo is what it should be for the long
voyage of life-and then, wait for ''the
wind of the third day" eve do not want
our boys and girls to embark hastily, on a
stagnant mill pond, with no ballast, and
with a friend on the bank to raise a little
wind-and all for the sum of three dollars
and one-half a week Prof Crawford is
deeply interested in the schools, and, with
