RETURNED FROM AMADoR.
A County That is Alive to He1
Good Road Interests.

State Highway Commissioners Price
and Ashe have returned from Amador
County, and report that the grading,
culverts, ETC., of part of the rocky road
between lone and Jackson has been
finished, and that the cost of construc-
ton was less than the estimate made
by the Commissioners.
The Amador County authorities will
in the course of a few days, put in oper-
alton revolving rock -crusher, and as
the cobbles of which the roadbed con-
sists will be utilized for road metal
the probabilities are that the entire
strip of road will be finished in a few
weeks.
Commissioners Manson, Price and
Ashe will leave for Napa on Moncay
to attend the State Convention of Coun-
ty Supervisors, which will. it is under
stood, give the subject of good roads
considerable attention

JUVENILE PATRIOTS.
They Are Not Behind Their Elders
in Devotion to Our Flag.

No one who uses his eyes and ears as
he goes to and from daily work can be
ignorant of the fact that the children are
as full of patriotic spirit as their elders
in these days. Anybody who will stop
for a few minutes wherever the school
children are congregated will be often
amused and aStonshed at their re-
marks.
An amusing exhibition of this patri-
otic spirit in the little ones was given
while preparations We're being made for
Saturdays celebration in honor of
Dewey's victory. Little Marion, the
-year-old daughter of Dr. W had
pinned on yellow badge bearing the
letter S. Her father jokingly told her
that it was the color of SpainS flag and
that stood for Spain. She Indignantly
tore the ribbon from her dress and
stamped it under her feet.
While the procession was moving on
that evening, Helen, the ten-year- old
daughter of Mr.. P, noticed one of
the flag bearers, an elderly man, who
was carrying a large flag, the corner
of which was trailing in the dust. She
informed him, with a vigorous stamp of
her foot, that he must not drag that
flag in the dust
Another instance was that of a five
year-old boy who, seeing his father
wearing a flag badge on his coat said
Papa, / wish you would buy me one
like that, SO 1 can be an American,
too''
Probably hundreds of other instances
have happened, showing that the les
sons of patriotism taught in our schools
and the expressions heard at home are
training the children up to a feeling of
patriotism that will be sure safe
guard to our country against both for
eign and internal aggression in future

SHOULD BE LOOKED AFTER.
A Blind Boy Who Is Liable to be
Killed.

For the past two months passengers
occupying outside seats on the J-street
cars have been Mortified at the antics
of blind boy in the vicinity of Twen-
ty-second and J streets. The unfor-
tunate boy, who is about 6 years old,
is seen sitting on the curbing at the
noon hour and when a car approaches
Twenty-second street, he is seen to dart
towards it, stopping within a foot or
two of the moving car.
So frequently has this occurred of late
that the motormen on that line are in
constant fear that the boy will some
time or other miscalculate the distance
and be drawn under the wheels.
Should such a deplorable accident occur
the motorman could hardly be held ac-
countable for causing the death of the
unfortunate child.

HOW IT HAPPENED.
CHIEF GUTHRIE MAKES AN
EXPLANATION.
Because of a Defective Box the
Alarm for the I Street Fire Was
Not Turned in Properly.

Chief Of the Fire Department Henry
A. Guthrie, was seen yesterday by a
Record Union" reporter in relation TO
the complaint made by City Trustee
Tebbets, that at the fire at Twelfth and
/ streets early Wednesday morning, the
Fire Department was upwards OF a
half hour in arriving on the ground
and attacking the flames, although NO.
3's engine, whose station is on Nine
teenth street between l. and NJ, was
at the time standing at Tenth street
awaiting call to the fire which was
in progress on X street between Eighth
and Ninth
Chief Guthrie willingly explained the
cause of delay, and said he had already
seen and made a satisfactory explana-
tion to Trustee Tebbets.
AS a matter of fact, Chief Guthrie
said, he had sent No. 3's engine back
to it's station as soon as the K-street
fire was gotten under control, and
when the I-street fire caught it was on
Nineteenth street, and not, as stated,
on Tenth street.
Most of the fire boxes in the city.
Chief Guthrie continued, are old style
and not to be relied on. Box No. 70,
W
ring in the Twelfth and I streets fire,
was one of these and is wound up by
pressing down a button and thereby
lifting a weight similar to those used
in old-fashioned clocks.
When an attempt was made to turn
in the alarm for the Twelfth and L
streets fire. the button was pressed
down, and almost Immediately the cat
he result
ing that instead of the proper ALARM
one bell. which means a shut-off, or
that the fire is out, was turned in. The
men at Nineteenth street distinctly
heard the shut-off, and thought the hre
had been blown out or they would
have responded Immediately, as they
had been sent to their station for the
purpose of giving protection 10 the
eastern part of the city.
Chief Guthrie was on the roof Of the
Clunie building. directing his men at
their work on the fire which was stlli
burning. and the first intimation he
had of the fire on l street was when
one of the men hear him called his at
tention to the flames which were roll
ing nm He Immediately ordered No.
2's engine to the new fire, and in a
doing effective work
In the meantime, Chief Guthrie said,
a citizen had sent a telephone message
to Engine No. 8 at Nineteenth street,
and it responded with great alacrity,
and when the engines once got on the
ground the flames were soon under con-
troll.
Had an improved fire alarm system,
such as is in use in most cities, been
in use here. Chief Guthrie said, the
proper alarm. and not a shut-on,
would have been sent in, Engine NO.
9 would have responded, he would have
sent up No >, and the fire would have
been extinguished with very little loss.
Chief Guthrie concluded that neither
he nor the Fire Department, but the
city apparatus is responsible for the
disastrous nature of the fire.

The Vegetable Word.

1t is all owing to the vegetable
world that the year is y months
long. 1t might have been short
er or longer, had Nature arrans-
ed affairs differently as things
are now. however. a little reject
ion will show that any other ar
raagement is out of the question.
In an interval of u months,
according to DR.. Whewel, 1.-The
cycle u most of the external in
fuences which operate upon
plants is completed" Ii the
earth were moved by eighth
of its distance nearer the sun
the year would be a month
shorter.
In the course of a year the
fruit trees, as an example, have
precisely enough time to fulfill
their duties if the year were
twice its length they would be
unable to bring forth two crops
of fruit. for the reason that they
would not have the winter season
for the rest. The ascendency of
the sap, the putting forth of the
leaves, the towering ard the
fruit bearing. are all timed pre-
cisely according TO the seasons.
For this reason they cannot be
altered. and the year is II months
long.
1t has been calculated that
there are at least 10000 kinds OF
vegetable watches" of all kinds
which are timed as accurately as
| mechanical watches TO fulfill their
dades in the course of a sola,
year.
