New Fire Apparatus to be Used in New
 Engine House.
 The new combination chemical and hose wagon to be used in engine house No. Il on Howard avenue, is expected to arrive in this city to-day The wagon is a Champion Halloway,' built by the American Fire Engine company of Elmira, N. Y. It is thoroughly up to date in construction and will, Chief Fancher believes, be the easiest running wagon in the department. The wagon contains two S5-galon chemical tanks and room for 800 feet of hose.
 The new house will probably be put in commission by the 18th of this month. The horses are in the city, the engine installed, and when the wagon arrives everything will be in readiness. The department is now waiting for the concern which is to lay the sidewalk in front of the new house as now.,the ap- paratus cannot be gotten out. The sidewalk company is somewhat slow and delaying the department, as the house will have to wait for the side- walk.

Mining Promoter Pleads Guilty.

Letson Ballet, who gained wide no.
toriety as promoter of the White Swan
Mining Company of Oregon. last week
suddenly terminated his second trial in
the Federal court for fraudulently us
ing the mails by pleading guilty to the
offense. The first trial two years ago
ended in conviction after hard fight,
but the second trial was ordered by the
higher courts. Ballet was young
mining engineer when he organized the
White Swan Mining Company and
through it secured several hundred
thousand dollars in stock subscriptions.
1t was alleged that very little of this
money was used in developing prop
erty, but employed in carrying on
stock sales and for Balliet's private
uses. Investors began proceedings
against Ballet, accusing him of using
the mails for fraudulent purposes, and
the Government officials finally made
case against him, which resulted in his
plea Of guilty.

wife of Senator Clark of Montana, who
recently completed her musical studies
begun before marriage. has made her
first appearance as singer at private
gathering of friends in Paris. 1t is
said that Mrs. Clark's voice developed
such notable sweetness that two we'll
known musical directors who were pres
ent at the soiree by invitation declared
that the concert, if not the operatic
stage, had lost notable addition by the
marriage of Mrs. Clark.

LIFE INSURANCE FINANCING.
Worth S4OO,OO0,OOO, Carrying De-
preciated Securities.

In the financial column of the New
York World we find this remarkable
item:
about the only bonds that have
shown no disposition to keep pace with
the general advance in the price of in
vestment securities are International
Mercantile Marine AVS. These are the
interesting securities which George w.
Perkins, of ]. p. Morgan g. Co., sold to
George W. Perkins, Chairman Of the
Finance Committee of the New York
Life Insurance Company, three years
ago. The New York Life Insurance
Company in its annual report quotes
the market value of these bonds at par.
The quotation in Wall street has never
been over so in two years, and they
have been quoted as low as go. The
public has very few of the bonds.''
That smacks tart. Nevertheless the
public announcement that one of the
richest financial institutions in the
world, with claimed assets closing on
to $400, ,000. 900, is carrying deprecated
securities at 20 per cent above their
market value seems to have elected
little interest. Nobody appears to re-
gard it as important that an institution
carrying insurance on the lives of hun.
dreds of thousands of people and
promulgating ''gold bonds" and other
forms of liabilities or promises to pay
is film -famming" with J. P. Morgan
& Co. and doing high financial stunts
with gamblers of the stock market.
We have not heard that any move.
ment whatever has been started to
punish anybody in this connection for
deceiving the public and obtaining it's
money under false pretenses. No
'fraud order" has emanated from the
Postoffice Department denying the
mails to the mammoth corporation.
And as for Mr.. George w. Perkins, of
J. P. Morgan g. Co., who sold the dis
credited bonds to George w. Perkins,
Chairman of the Finance Committee of
the New York Life Insurance Company
he has never been tabood for the deal.
People have been amazed to see the
rapid accumulation of assets by the
great life companies. But, if the in
stance cited by the World is correct the
feat is not so stupendous after ALL
Sacramento Sunday News.

Bored Holes in $40 Pieces.

James H. Garry, an attorney -at.law.
is under arrest at San Francisco,
charged with feloniously abstracting
gold from double eagles. Garry,
when arrested, made a complete con-
fession. He bored holes in the edges
of twenty dollar pieces, drilling toward
the center. The cavities were cleverly
plugged with copper wire which was
gilded. Garry took from SO to 50 from
each coin. He said that he had drilled
out coin each day for the past three
years.
