A beet sugar factory means all this
10 al American community.
Concrete illustrations are always
much more satisfactory than general
statistics, and the following facts and
figures concerning the benefits re.
ceived by one community during the
past season speak with greater force
than could any array Of general fig
ures, however reliable.
The Alameda Sugar company at
Alvarado, Cal, has completed the
seasons run and it has proved to be
one of the best it has ever had.
During the year just closed the
mill has used about $1,000 tons Of
sugar beets and produced about H..
100000 pounds of sugar. Taking
cars of 80 tons capacity it would re
quire over 2,233 cars, or 40 trains Of
As cars each and one of 33 cars to
handle the manufactured product.
The railroad company has received
in round figures over $4,000 as
freight charges, owing to the mills
work. This includes freight on beets
hauled to. the mill, sugar hauled
away and feul and other necessaries
taken to the mill during the season.
Oil is used as fuel and two cars Of
$500 gallons each is required every
day of twenty four hours. The price
OF beets for several years has been
$3.50 per ton delivered at the mill
and this item alone the past season
has run over $3O1,OOO. Next season
the price will be $40 per ton.
The output of sugar beets raised
in Eden and Washington townships
the past year was about $4,000 tons,
and as they are nearly all haulde in
wagons to the mill it means the
farmers receive $4,000 as their
share. To this may be added $40,.
600 for labor as we have over $780,
600 distributed in the two townships.
To show, however, that this mill is
not large one it is only necessary
to say that at Salinas they have han.
died 27l, 900 tons of beets the past
season, or four and half times the
quantity handled at Alvarado. Truly
the beet sugar industry is growing
an important one to the United States.

g. w. Clark and Geo. Bender ar
rived Sunday with their personal
property and are improving their
farms near Amity.
Mr.. Theo. Schmidt, a we'll to do

Geo. Wilson has been hauling out
the iron casing for the artesian we'll
this week. There has been consider
able delay with the work on the we'll
from being unable to get the casing,
but now the work will be pushed for
ward rapidly and in all probability
before warm weather comes water
will be flowing all over the country
from the we'll.
As an evidence that farming land
under the Amity canal is being
eagerly sought after by eastern peo-
pie, local agent received this week
a communication from an Iowa party.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE
OF WEALTHY WIDOW
MISSING FROM HER HOTEL
FOUL PLAY FEARED
POLICE ASKED TO INVESTIGATE.

Both women collapsed at this juno
ture. and Mr.. Lewis read the article
aloud. The further intelligence an
nounced that the police on being sum-
moned opened the trunks of the missing
guest and rummag ed their contents I'M
til they discovered her Chicago address;
that they had wired her brother and
lover, whose letters gave the informa-
ton they needed, and that both had tele-
gra2hed to proceed with the search.
using every means in their power. and
that the two men would leave immedi-
ately for New York.
"Horrible!" shrieked Katharine in
fierce dismay
Shameful cried Sophie supporting
her friend in her arms.
The police seem to have been over
vigilant," commented Mr. Lewis. You
are being well advertised Kate. he
added, with sly emphasis. At the same
time he was annoyed that she should
have all this to undergo.
They both accompanied their guest to
the hotel. where her apartments were
found in a state of confusion that war
ranted an indignant rebuke to the man
agement, and affairs were speedily
adjusted, Mr.. Lewis insisting that
Sophie should stay and chaDerone the
widow until her brother arrived. That
he was not coming alone seemed to
afford Katharine much comfort. She
felt willing to be lean-to all the rest of
her 1sse.

After luncheon Mr.. Lewis returned to
the city and the two young women sat
together and rehearsed all that had hap
pened since their last meeting. which
was on the occasion of Katharine's mar
riage. They even talked over Mr. Cath

But the flood Of color that suhfused
Mrs. ArcLer's features told another
story. Sophie, bright little womans re-
ceived a sudden illumination. Mrs. Ach-
er intended to return to her hotel that
evening, but yielded to the urgings of
her friends. and the next morning it
rained, nor did it clear during the day
or the following evening. Katharine
wrote to her mother, and answered at
length Richard Cathcart's letter, using
specious and evasive arguments, a very
Jesuit in her use of language to conceal
thought Then the second night passed,
and on the succeeding morning when
Mr. Lewis opened his daily paper he
gave a great shout. ss
"Sophiei Katharine. Come here!"
The two hurried down and looked over
