A gentleman very closely connected
with some of the new railroad projects
in northern California, speaking of the
latest developments in the Western
Pacific, said "As the inside history of
the Western Pacific becomes public.
the correctness of the reports published
from time to time in the Bee becomes
that the Western Pacific was simply d
private enterprise. organized for the
purpose of surveying lines across the
mountains and Nevada, to sell to some
transcontinental road.
When Mr.. Bartnett went east he
did not know what he would do with
the surveys. He went to find a pur-
chaser He offered his goods to Gould
and Vanderbilt, but finally closed a
deal with the Southern Pacific, and
that was why all the maps and plats
were sent to Engineer Boggs for his
approval. He. it will be remember ed,
was the man who looked over the.
Southern Pacific for its present owners
at the time Mrs. Stanford sold her
stock, and it was on his recommended
cured certain rights that the Western
Pacific had.
THE new companies that Mr.. Bart
nett has formed are simply names.
alias Southe. n Pacific. Yard Is in
sympathy with the Southern Pacific.
as he said once in an interview with the
Bee. and only wants his holdings in
Butte & Plumas opened up.
"All interests are now Ieconciled and
the Southern Pacific will soon build by
way of the Beckwith pass, and that
will become the main passenger line
of the road
1t is generally conceded that Yard is
master of the situation in SO far as his
road and Bartnett's are concerned, in
the Sacramento valley, and Bartnett
has a well outlined route through
Beckwith pass eastward to Salt Lake.
Hartman long ago began to regard
the pass as the only solution for over
coming the heavy grades of the Sierras
other than constructing an expensive
tunnel through the mountains. Coils
p. Huntington admitted his mistake in
not going out of California by way or
the Beckwith pass. Hartman realized
the need OF getting control of a section
of the pass. and there is a growing sus-
picion that he determined to accom-
plish this by dickering with the Bart
nett company.
1t would be comparatively easy task
for the Hartman syndicate to build
no. tn from the main line of the Centrai
Pacific in Nevada. through the Beck
with pass. and thence in southwest
erly direction to Sterling or even to
Oroville, by way of which the mail,
line of the company woulo be reached
and traffic extended to this city. While
Attorney Bartnett and III. Il. Yard de-
cline to make known their future
plans, the opinion prevails among local
financiers that they are dealing with
the officials of the Southe. n Pacific
company, with a view of turning over
their rights of way and surveys to
that corporation.-Sacr Bee.

The Tailor Leaves the Girl
He Has Agreed to
We'd

Gotthilf F. Kirchner, to whom "Cu-
pid" Dunn issued marriage license
yesterday. has left town. The despica-
BILE wretch was too cowardly to remain
and partially atone for the crime he
had committed.
Kirchner came here from California,
bringing a very unsavory record with
him. and was followed by reports of
his character that stamp him as a cur
of the most loathsome type.
Some months ago this beast in hu-
man form, driven from every other
locality, located in Winnemucca, and
for a time worked around the depot.
Being without funds. he accepted the
most menial occupations that he might
earn enough to buy food. Through
kindness he was assisted by business
men into tailoring business. and TO
his credit. succeeded to such an ex-
tent that help was necessary. A young
girl. Miss Annie Plum. was engaged as
a seamstress and with the engage
ment came her downfall. With prom
ises of marriage the villain succeeded
III his dastardly designs and now runs
away from, or rather sneaks away
from. the result of his infamy. Yester-
day. to give himself time to prepare
for flight. he took out a marriage IL
cense, for the condition of the girl be-
came known by the fact that he ac-
companied her to a house of prostitu-
ton kept by a neg ess for one of two
purposes-to seek advice on malprac-
tice or to make her an inmate of the
place to protect his own worthless car
cass from the vengeance of friends OF
the unfortunate creature who has fall
en- beyond redemption. The lily-white
rose of virtue is not the emblem al
lotted to her. and Kirchner is not en-
tirely to blame. but that is no excuse
for the contemplate manner in which
he leaves his accomplice to bear the
burden of their joint crime. BY the
intercession of a friend he was spared
the pain of punishment at the hands
of a mob last night. and pays that
friends kindness with the best of
which he Is capable. duplicity. BY rig
he went to Golconda. and from there
by train to the east, the only direction
he could travel. for in the west he Is
known for what he is.

girl said: II did not know he was GO

asked.
"Yes. think would" she replied.

of her sufferings. Whether or not he
will be brought back is not yet known.
The officers know where to find him
should he be wanted.

The Pessimist

Nothing to do but work.
Nothing to eat but food,
Nothing to wear but clothes
To keep from going nude.
Nothing to breathe but air,
Quick as a fash it's gone;
Nowhere to fall but off.
Nowhere to stand but ON.
Nothing to comb but hair,
Nowhere to sleep but in bed;
Nothing to weep but tears,
Nothing to bury but dead.
Nothing to sing but songs.
All, well. alas! alack!
Nowhere to go but out,
Nowhere to come but back
Nothing to see but sights,
Nothing to quench but thirst;
Nothing to have but what we've got;
Thus thro' life we're cursed.
Nothing to strike but gait;
Everything moves that goes.
Nothing at all but common sense
Can ever withstand these woes.

in the hills when the Russian warships
came in and the garrison made prepa-
rations to resist a landing party. After
the Goyo Maru had been sunk the Rus
SLAMS retired. No attack was made on
the town.
This movement is regarded here as
supplementary to the recent Russian
occupation of Sung jim. which is about
150 miles northeast of Gensan, by a
detachment of Cossacks, for the pur-
pose of dete mining the strength of the
japanese on the east coast of Korea.
1t is also considered as a diversion
from the activity on the Yalu river.
The garrison at Gensan. which mum
bered 500 men, was reinforced last
week and the troops there are engaged
in throwing up breastworks. There is
also some artillery at Gensan.
While the Japanese authorities here
consider the situation at Gensan to be
serious, they are not apprehensive.

Cleaning Hints.

Grease spots on even the most
delicate material will often yield to
French chalk or fuller's earth. How
ever, if it doesn't, spread a beet Of
blotting paper underneath, and
another on top of the spot, and hold
a warm fatiron, not hot enough to
scorcb, on the blotting paper which
is on the wrong side of the goods.
Chloroform will often remove spots
from delicate material, and leaves no
mark on the goods as gasoline is apt
to do, if used on delicate silks and
satins. If the entire article can be
immersed in gasoline, we'll and good;
but if spot must be removed, make
a ring of chloroform around and well
outside of the spot. Sponge with the
chloroform until all stain is removed.
A piece OF white flannel is the best
material to use when sponging, dis
carding each piece as it becomes soiled.
These squares may be washed and
used repeatedly.-RousehoId.

HOUSEHOLD.
COOKING FOR INYALIDS.

That the cooking is an essept ial of
the invalid's care, all doctors aud
nurses agree. There are dishes
especially fitted for the invalid's use,
which the trained nurse knows how
to prepare, but we are interested to
have the amateur nurse know them.
Gruels are often used in ''soft"
diet. Any cereal used for Cruel
should be cooked for at least two
hours in double boiler. This makes
a thick porridge which can be
thinned, little at a time, with hot
milk or water. nicely seasoned with
salt and served hot.
In serving fruits, seek for variety in
service, if the same fruit must be
used over and over. Oranges,
especially, lend themselves to pretty
variations. Speaking of fruits, there
are many good acid drinks for use IN
fevers, which will furnish a change
from lemon and orangeades. Gran
berries cooked with water and sugar,
strained, and thinned with cracked
ice, are delicious. Currant jelly can
be dissolved in hot water, sweetened
and cooled, and served in the same
way. In diseases which affect the
throat, pineapple juice is good, and,
with little lemon juice added to
bring out the fruit flavor, delicious
drink is made.
The making of toast is something OF
which everyone thinks herself
capable, but for the sick person
especial care must be taken. The
bread should be slowly heated, first
on one side, then on the other, then
toasted on both sides in the same
way. Unless you are especially
directed to do so, do not butter toast,
but take it dry to your patient, plac-
ing the butter in a separate plate
While in case Of we'll person it makes
but little difference if the buttereo
toast digests more slowly, your con-
valescent cannot afford more thar
the necessary energy for digestive
processes Good Housekeeping.

Carpet Moths.

The carpet moth is an enemy to be
fought perseveringly. Steep one
quarter pound of cayenne pepper in
one gallon of water, then add
two drachms of strychnia powder.
Strain and pour into a shallow vessel
such as large timed iron milk pan.
Roll the carpet up and set each end,
alternately, in this mixture for ten
minutes, or long enough to insure the
saturation Of it's edges for about an
inch. Do this after beating the car
pet. The ends should be likewise
treated. Be sure the carpet is dry
before tacking down, as the wet
poison might injure the fingers while
lacking. When done with the liquid
throw where it cannot possibly harm
anybody, or bottle and label it for
future use. This preparation will not
stain the carpet nor corrode metals
in contact with the carpet.
