,ALAMITY BARELY AVERTED.
ARCADE SCHoOLHOUSE BLOWN
s. TO THE GROUND.
The Pupils Had Left the Building
Only a Few Minutes
~, Before.

The fierce gale that swept over the
State on Wednesday last came near
causing the death of large number OF
children attending the Arcade School,
about a mile northeast of Arcade Sta
ton, on the Rancho del Paso.
During the preceding night the storm
was SO severe and continued, with such
violence inthe morning, that Miss Nellie
Mackey, the teacher, concluded that
few, if any, of the twenty-five pupils
would put in an appearance at the
school, SO she did not venture to leave
home.
This action of the teacher seems al
most to have been the result OF
an interposition by Providence, for
had she gone to the schoolhouse
there might, and doubtless would,
have been great loss of life, as
shortly after the hour for the opening
of school the building completely coll
lapsed from the force of the wind.
Several of the pupils had braved the
storm that morning, and went to the
schoolhouse, in which they gathered
to avoid the rain and wind; but when
the hour for opening had passed, and
the teacher was nowhere in sight, the
children left the house and set off for
their homes. Five minutes later the
building came down with a crash and
6of fIA a ~
pletely as if a mountain had fallen
on it.
1t was an old structure, which had
been moved there from another part of
the ranch, to be used as a schoolhouse
until the people of the district felt that
they could afford new one. At the
last election they voted 81 800 for a new
building, and work thereon was to have
begun very soon. It will begin much
sooner, now that the old one is gone.
County Superintendent Howard says
the old building had long been consid-
cred unsafe, and Miss Mackey and him
self had for some time been urging the
erection of a new schoolhouse.
1t was certainly a most fortunate
thing that the teacher did not open
school on Wednesday morning. Some
times an occupied building is over
turned without serious results to its
occupants, but in this case the whole
structure came straight down and fiat
tened out on the plain, so that a school
supply agent who was hunting for the
schoolhouse the next day passed within
a few yards of the wreck and did not
see it

water! Water!' The Cry Is for
Pure Water.

Eds Record Union: Talking about
water for Sacramento, the article OF
General MARITIME in this morning $
Record Union is what we hear every
day when we are fortunate enough to
have strangers in the city; but he
didn't go far enough.
I see the City Trustees are about to
waste 81 800 more of the city's money
in testing some company's filter. Most
people are willing to make such tests
at their own expense if they are we'll
satisfied they can do as they say, but
this filter company wants the city to
put up the money to do the work and
furnish the power and water and if it
is shown to be a success for a short
time the city is supposed to buy it, at
the eompany's price. If it proves fall
ure they will take all this thing away
and 81 500 with it.
I Will admit that if the river water
is filtered it will be good water-as far
as looks go but l have my doubts
about its being as good as the water
from the wells east of the city recently
tested by the Chamber of Commerce,
for that is filtered through from fifty
to one hundred miles of sand, and those
pense to our citizens.
will venture to say that you can
take five buckets of water from these
wells and five buckets from Blue Can
yon, or from Lake Tahoe, and set them
in a row, and not find man in the city
who can tell which is from the wells
md which is from the mountains.
This water can be delivered in the
city at the same cost as Sacramento
straight can be, and the city have no
expensive filters to buy; and, what is
more expensive, to take care of, for
there is where the constant cost comes
in.
For instance, our School Board has
nut some filters in the schools and it is
costing S75 month now to take care
of them, and they are new.
1 have a filter in my house that has
70 be cleaned once every day, and
oftener. to get much water, and to
undertake to filter the water for this
CITY is a big job in my opinion.
There is but one way to get proper
wafer system for this city at a cost
that we can afford, and that is from
This underground river east OF the city,

A CAR PORTER JAILED.
Henry johnson Imprisoned 70
Riotous Couduct

City Justice Davis yesterday sent a

Jail for thirty days for disturbing the
peace at the depot.
Johnson was drinking ON Thursday
night, and while quite hilarious he i'm

Division Superintendent of the road.
His conduct became so boisterous that
the women who had sleeping car tick
cts were afraid to go to sleep, and
when the male passengers protested he
showed knife and made threats. He
was arrested by a Waterman, but not
until he was knocked down and sub

Output of the Klondike

No one will ever know exactly how
much gold was taken from the Klondike
nelds the past season. Since the English
Government imposed royalty, the
miners have adopted all sorts of
ruses to evade the law. 1t is rather diff
cult to dodge taxes, but it is more diff
cult to dodge a bad cold and the grip at
this time of year. When the system is
weakened by such attacks. and the blood
becomes thin and impoverished, the best
medicine to take is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. This remedy builds up the sys-
tenn. Besides regulating digestion it
0vercomes constipation. 1t is good for
the kidneys and liver, too, stimulating
these organs into the proper performance
of their functions. Nothing is SO good

Suggestion from Berlin Which Is
Thought TO be Inspired.
Washington, February 90
What is regarded as an inspired
sugge 'tion coming from Berlin, to
the effect that differences between
the powers party to the treaty of
Berlin, relative to Samoa could
hest be adjusted by mutual dis
chalmers for the Objectionable acts
of their agents at Apia, is regard
I'd here as evidence that the whole
matter is now entirely within the
line of safety and. that the dis
putes are about to be committed
for adjustment to diplomatic
means, the principals being at
Washington, London and Berlin
instead of at Apia.
Contrary to the accepted belief
here, the German President Of the
Municipal Council, Raffel, has not
yet left Apia, but information has
reached here that he will sail from
there tomorrow. Thus will be re-
moved from the scene one of the
most threatening factors.
