California Consolidated Petroleum Go,
 This Is the age of consolidation and the California Consolidated Petroleum Company is born of this .u 'cessful principle. "The "ten cent" oil com panies are of few days and full of trouble. They must strike oil in their first wells or burst, for with their money gone in dry hole their stock is killed. If they survive they will be swallowed by the California Consoli- dated or the Standard, for such is the history of the oil business. There is only room fur two oil concerns like Standard on the Pacific coast. These two giants will Inevitably control the oil business of California, and it Is th ,se wise enough to see these who are buying the stock of the California Consolidated Petroleum Company. which stock is likely, ere long, to make its holders rich Already the stocks of ] few other oil companies, bought at a nominal figure, are worth on the market several hundred dollars per share, and the time is not distant when small block Uf this stock may mean competence to the fortunate owner. Certain it Is that the present price will soon be doubled, and those desiring non assessable oil stock in solid company, backed by solid men, will do we'll to carefully read the con- pany's ad. which appears in this issue.
 Stock redeemable on demand at any time within 30 days from date of certificate. All money paid in in- stalments refunded on demand at any time within thirty days from date of first payment. If yon do not want your stock, seud to company aud you will promDtly get every cent of your money back.

A Curious Incident

From the New York Times
one of the London papers, presumably
well informed as to the mental peculiari-
ties of its readers. gravely records that
NOT long ago there lay the table in a
West End club list of members who had
put down their names for an approaching
house dinner. A workman on a ladder
who was putting the finishing touches to
the decoration of the ceiling, let fall sim
gle minute drop of red paint. This dropped
on the first name on the list and obliterated
1. as If with the stroke of a pen. Some
of the members who observed the Incident
continues the impressive narrative, thought
1t very bad omen; others, like Hamlet,
defied augury. But. curiously enough, the
member whose name had thus been struck
out was taken Ill next day. and died in the
club on the night before the dinner was to
have taken place" We fail to see In this
sequence of events anything that Is "cu-
rious enough" or even curious at all. but

WILL NOT REMOVE VAN WICK.
Gov. Roosevelt Gives His Decision
Ice stock Case.

Governor Roosevelt last night gave out
his decision in the application for the re-
moval from office of Mayor Robert A Van
Wyck of New York city. He declines to
remove the mayor, on the grounds that
while he was undoubtedly a stakeholder
in the American Ice Company, there has
been no proof that he willfully violated the
law forbidding a public officer to be a stock
holder in a corporation having dealings with
his municipality. q
The governors memorandum says in
part:
MY Judgment is that the so-called ice
trust is not a corporation in which the
mayor of New York should have stock. but
no proof has been offered of any willful
violation Of law on the part of the mayor
such as would justify the drastic measure
of removing him from Office. The power
of removal from Office of elective officers
should be treated much we treat the
power Of impeachment 1t is an extraordin-
airy and not an ordinary remedy.
1.-THE normal remedy for bad government
must be an appeal to the people, and only
in wholly exceptional cases is it desirable
to substitute for this appeal to the people.
an appeal to the power of removal or the
power Of impeachment The case is there
fore dismissed"
