Suppose every time that a man
wanted to buy meat, groceries or
furniture he should make out a
list of his wants and go round
from store to store and receive
bids on it? What would business
men think of that way of doing
business? Say!-Pueblo Saturday
Mail.
A right pertinent question,
neigh Dor. The business men
would decide at once that such a
man was so small that he could
stand between the teeth of a fine
tooth comb and imagine he was in
the midst of a vast forest. There
are other towns besides Pueblo,
poor brother, where such n ques-
ton might aptly apply.

The Smoothest Train in the United
States

On Sunday, November 20, the
Burlington Route made radical
change in the schedule of the Chi
cago Special, its finest and fastest
Denver Chicago train.
= Heretofore, this train has left
Denver in the morning -immedi-
ately after the arrival of d. & r. G.
) and Colorado Midland trains from
tho West. 1t now leaves at | 40
y. m, arriving at Omaha in time
for breakfast next morning, and at
Chicago at S.l5 p. m. the same day.
In other words, it runs 1,0l6 miles
in twenty-nine and one-half hours
an average rate of speed of
about thirty-six miles an hour.
There are not half a dozen long
distance trains in the United
States which are scheduled faster
than thirty-six miles an hour. And
there is rot one-not single one
which has as good record as
the Chicago Special for being 0on
time all the time"
The equipment of the Chicago
Special consists of one sleeping.
one dining, one library, and two
chair oars. The cars are of the
newest design, and have been in
service less than six months. All
OF them have the new wide vesti-
bule, and are lighted with Pintsch

HIGHBINDFRs IN AUBURN.
Merchant An Fee May Have Been
 Slain by His CountrYmen.

AUBURN, Dec. 5.-No definite clew has yet been found in the case of Ah Yee, the wealthy Chinese merchant who was literally chopped to pieces with an ax last Friday night. Report says there were three highbinders in town a couple of weeks ago. and on Friday afternoon Embry Sutton and Chris Michaels, miners who were sell ing their gold dust, observed two Chi nese engaged in a heated conversation with An Yee as they entered the store. The veteran gold buyer was endeavor- ing to pacify his angry cousins by the aid of a book and some figures he had ir his hand
 The Coroner's inquest was held to- day, but the testimony did not develop anything. Public Administrator Mitch ell will tomorrow commence a thor ough search of the dead merchants store, believing that the murderers did not find all of his money and that he had it hidden in many places.

cerning other appointments that are to be made between now and the close o1 his term of office.
 The appointments made were of two members of the State Board of Agricul- ture and two notaries public Frederick Cox, one of the present members of the Board of Agriculture, was appointed to succeed himself. The other appointment is that of Colonel Park Henshaw of Chi co. He is named to succeed J. E. Terry, one of the present members of the board whose term has expired.
 George A. Patterson was commissioned a notary public for the city and county of San Francisco, vice A J. Porter, term expired. Eugene w. Levy of this city re- ceived a renewal of his commission as notary public.
 Governor Budd has not yet decided whom he will name as the successor of Judge Rhodes Borden, whose sudden death. a few days ago created a vacancy on the Superior Court bench in this city; The ceived the highest number of votes for the unexpired term of Superior Judge, will continue to hold office until the general election, is not considered worthy of a moments consideration. In a majority of instances a State officer Is qualified by law to hold office until his successor Is elected and qualified. Such is not the case, however, in the matter of Superior Court Judges.
 The constitution expressly states that they shall be elected for a specified  garding their successors. Judge Borden having been elected for the ensuing six years his death creates a vacancy that can only be filled by appointment by the Governor.
 While much speculation is being in- dulged regarding who will be selected as the successor of the late Judge Borden, it is the general belief that w. P Lawler will be the lucky man.
 What with the stress of official and political business Governor Budd Is hay ing hard time trying to get leisure Ill which to prepare his final message to the Legislature. Adjutant General A. w. Barrett is lending the Governor valuable assistance, but applications for political jobs, petitions for pardons and special pleas of all kinds are coming in so thick that even the usually level-headed veteran is losing his presence of mind. He says his trials are greater now than during the hardest struggles of the late unpleasant ness with Spain, and threatens to leave the Chief Executive to fight it out alone.
 The following will no doubt be named to make up the staff of assistants in the office of Attorney General-elect Tirey L. Ford:
 Assistant, c. N. Post of Sacramento; first deputy, George A. Sturtevant of Ukiah; second deputy. William M. Abbott of San Francisco; third deputy. A. A. Moore of Oakland; stenographer, George Francis of Los Angeles; clerks, Charles P. Gale of Oroville and Kate V. Hannon ,q +n

Alcazar.

There were no vacant seats in the AL cazar Theater last evening and not few pretty faces and dresses were to be seen fa the audience. The occasion was a ben eft of St. Brigid's parish. Financially the affair was a success and theatrically it was a triumph.
 Those on the stage aid all in their power to please and their efforts were met with unstinted applause and other marks of appreciation.
 The curtain rose with a clever little one act comedietta, Keeping Up Appear ances" This is a production of Miss Louise Veiller. It is simple domestic story of a young. lawyer and his wife, who become separated on account of her Jeal- ousy and his stIIbbornness. A reconcilla- tion is brought about in peculiar man her. through an unexpected visit ot the v-ffe's father. The young estranged couple agreed to occupy the same house Tor one day to keep up appearances. Inal set tied it. This is the first appearance or tHls curtain-raiser. Ernest Hastings ana MISS Gretchen Lyons were well adapted to the parts of husband and wife ana GeorSe Osbourne made an excellent old dotlns
 "The Private Secretary" that followed was a decided success. In fact, the coml- cal situations, IS portrayed py the AIca- gar stock company, produced as unuch rnerrirnent as when presented eight years ago in the Baldwin by Sol Smith Russell and Lillian Owens
 Howard Scott took the part or the Pri- vate secretary, Robert Spaulding, and his conception of the character was as fine as that of any who have filled the trying role in the past. George Osbourne as MT Cattermole. rich uncle of Douglas Cat termole, a young high flyer made as much fun as any one. Douglas, the nepheW, was personated by Ernest HaStlngS' WHO is good in many lines.
 Gretchen Lyons and Laura Crews made up well as giddy girls The cockney dia- feet character of Mrs. Stead was taken by Miss Ida Krueger, who was the right per son in the right part The comedy ran remarkably smooth for it's first night.

 Over a month ago he started to come out, two of his party accompanying him. Since that time not trace of them has been discovered. They had small sup ply of provisions and no hope is held out for them. They were "tenderfeet'' of the most pronounced type and would have starved when hardy miners would have lived.

Congress.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Senator Nor gan is greatly pleased with the President s recommendations concerning the Nica- ragua Canal. He said to The Call cor respondent tonight that he would call the bill up early and he had not doubt of its passage.
 Notwithstanding the fact that some of the Republican leaders in both the House and Senate are at loggerheads over this question, certain leaders have resolved that no bill shall be considered over which there is likely to be an extended discus sion. Senator Allison is one of these and Dingley of Maine is another. But it is the general opinion thau the canal bill will go through. The Presidents failure to mention the Bulwer-Clayton treaty signi- fies that he wants Congress to go ahead regardless of the treaty, which is held by some to mean joint Construction of the canal by Great Britain and the United States.

We now own Pearl Harbor and

1t is the only harbor in the Ha-
waiian Islands suitable for naval
station.
We have served notice on the
world that the Hawaiian Islands
are under our protection and must
not be annexed by any other
power.
This settles the "bulwark and
naval outpost" argument, the "tri-
angle and key" nonsense.
We now have a practical mon
opolv OF Hawaii's export trade and
can keep it as long as we wish to
admit Hawaiian sugar free Of duty.
We care nothing of Hawaii's i'm
port trade, because it is a mere
trifle and win always be a triae.
The Hawaiian sugar plantations
are worked by serfs, and serfs do
not buy. Hawaii now sustains
practically its limit of population,
and any additions to the population
will be plantation serfs.
This settles the Commercial"
pretext.
