Completed.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

BAKERSFIELD, Oct. $50 far as the
laying of the rails and ties is concerned
the Sunset Railroad, from Gosford to the
town of Sunset, is completed. However,
many days will elapse before the trains
will be run on regular trips, as the work
of leveling and filling in is yet to be done.
The schedule for the trains has not as yet
been arranged, but President G. N. Beal
said that an extra train probably would
be run over the line until the traffic war
rants the operating of passenger and
freight trains separately.
The completion of the road has done
away with the uncertainty in which the
Sunset district has been enveloped, and
it is said that extensive development
work will soon be commenced by new OIL
those already in the field. Oil men who
have made a study of the situation assert
that the Sunset district is in the future
to be prominent in the oil industry Of

NEW BUILDING
FOR STANFORD
Engineering Laboratory
to Be Constructed
at Once.
Fifty Thousand Dollars Will
Be Expended Upon
the Structure.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct. 22.-
AS was expected. Mrs. Stanford's arrival
al the university has stimulated action
here along the line of the construction of
buildings. Before she had been in the
campus twenty-four hours she had au-
thorized the immediate construction and
equipment of an engineering laboratory at
a cost of $4,000.
The new laboratory is to be a large one
story fireproof structure, 235x60 feet in
dimensions, and probably will be located
just west of the present civil engineering
building, on the site originally intended
for the chemistry department. The west
erly half of the new edifice is to house the
steam engineering laboratory of the me-
chanical engineering department, while
the quarters for the experimental work of
the electrical engineering students will
occupy the remainder.
AS soon as the present civil engineering
building can be vacated it will be remod-
eled into a perfectly equipped laboratory
for the testing of materials, and the me-
chanical engineering quarters will under
go a similar change, being converted into
a machine shop flied with all the modern
improvements. Recitation and draught-
ing rooms for engineering students will
be installed on the inner quadrangle as
soon as those now occupied by the chem
istry and some ether departments are va
struction for these latter departments.
Architect Charles E. Hodges is draw
ing up plans Tor the engineering labOra-
tory and ground will be broken prepara-
tory to its construction as soon as they
are submitted and approved. 1t is Mrs.
Stanford's intention to have work on the
structure rushed. The building will be
completed within four. or five months and
will be equipped and ready for use as a
laboratory with the beginning af the col
lege year next September. Orders will be
placed for the necessary equipments i'm
mediately. The sum of $4,000 does not
represent the total amount that. will be
expended on the laboratory; more will be
spent as soon as it is placed in a condi-
tion to justify the expenditure.
1t is also learned that work will soon
be started on the buildings and arcades
that are to complete the second or outer
quadrangle. Mrs. Stanford intends that
the view of the memorial church shall be
obstructed as little as possible; accord
ingly, there will be no buildings directly
back of the church. That part of the
quadrangle will be composed of arcades
which will overlook the beautiful gardens
and grounds that will flank the edifice on
three sides. Work on the church itself
will be hurried

Mother and Child Are
Burned to Death in
Corona.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CORONA, Oct. 22.-The old experiment
of pouring coal oil into a cookstove to
revive a fire caused the horrible death
of Mrs. Frederick Noble and her two
year-old daughter here tonight.
Shortly before o'clock Mrs. Noble, who
wished to prepare the evening meal, at
tempted to restore fire that had burned
in the stove by pouring oil upon the en-
ing oil was cast in a shower upon her
and her little daughter, who was playing
on the floor near the stove. Before others

flames the two were frightfully burned.
The babe fingered scarcely more than
an hour and the mother passed away at

death relieved them.
AS result of the tragedy Mr.. Noble
the husband and father, may lose his
reason. Grief appears to have temporar-
lily unbalanced his mind.

wherein it was procured. Legal counsel
confirmed the opinion. Yesterday the
Barneses were remarked by Rev. E. F.

man Beshaw of Quartz Hill is in pre-
carious condition and death may relieve
his sufferings. The youngster asked the
head of neighboring family how steam
was made. The man. who was miner,
entered into an explanation, and, to ad-
just it to the boys mind, told Herman
that If he placed "a coal oil can full OF
water over a fire and allowed no oppor-
tunity for the steam to escape it would
burst the can. At the same time he
warned the youngster against trying the
experiment.
Mr.. and Mrs Beshaw paid a visit to
Keswick yesterday. Their boy and
young son of Mr.. and Mrs. John Kemble,
a nelghboring family, proceeded to try
the steam experiment; Herman Beshaw
procured a syrup can, filled it with water,
corked it up tightly and placed it over
fire they. built on the ground. The ex-
pected explosion occurred, but earlier than
the youngsters expected. Steam and hot
water struck Herman on the face, chest
and arms, scalding him frightfully. The
other lad escaped with slight sealds on
the face. Little Hermans recovery is
