the Supervisor is a physical wreck
mentally irresponsible and near death,
whenever Mr.. Sanderson Is wanted
by the proper authorities to give testi-
mony in connection with the San Fran
cisco investigation he will be pro-
duced," said DR.. Dawson, who has Deen
charged with concealing his patient
from the authorities.
Mr. Sanderson's residence here has
been kept a secret because he Is In no
fit condition to endure the worry ana
to interview him. His condition TO-DAY
is slightly improved and he may be
able to resume his journey to Arizona
wnen the weather clears. He has not
been asked to make any affidavit or
give testimony for the benefit OF the
San Francisco graft Investigators, but
if he is wanted he will be produced"
Reporters by the dozen and at least
one special agent from San Francisco
have sought to locate Sanderson since
his second attempt at suicide. but he
has baffied them all Doctor Dawson
has been shadowed for hours at q time,
but no clew was found TO Sanderson's
whereabouts. There Is a suspicion that
DR.. Dawson makes his latest statement
as blind to give Sanderson ample time
to get away without being too closely
followed.
Morris Levy returned yesterday from
Los Angeles. where he Is supposed to
have gone In response to a hurried call
to see Supervisor Sanderson. Levy de-
nies that an interview with Sanderson
was the sole purpose OF his trip. but
admits seeing the Supervisor. Levy
said:
IT hardly knew sanderson when I
met him In Los Angeles. He has fallen
away In weight and looks haggard and
worried. His illness, aggravated by
worry over the graft charges. has
wrecked his mind. He talked irration-
ally at times, and II compelled to ap-
pear in the Grand Jury room I very
much doubt that he could Withstand
an hours examination before the in
quisitorial body.
When I first saw him doubted
that the man who confronted me was
Sanderson," continued Levy.
Don't you know me. LevyT he in
quired.
I'm surprise calculated. This isn't
Bill Sanderson?
"Yes. it is
Looking at his wasted figure, /
cried, What have you done with your
self?
Its all off with me, now.' was the
dreary reply, I don't expect to live an
other month
'Sanderson told me that he expected
to leave Los Angeles Friday, Novem-
Der 80. for Arizona. accompanied by
his physician. and that he was then
preparing to ask the Board OF Super
visors for leave OF absence He is
only too apparently not OF sound mind
and his worry-racked mental condition
is evidenced by his frequent irrational
remarks"
Levy refused to discuss in any way
the graft situation.

GOVERNMENT EXAMINES WATER
OF RIVERS IN CALIFORNIA
Geological Survey Proposes to Furnish
Information Regarding Flows From
Sferras and Coast Range.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The results
Of water examinations carried on DUR
ing the past year under cooperative
agreement between the State of Cali
fornia and Geological Survey have
been described in a report recently
made by the director of the survey to
the State Board of Examiners. The
object of the investigation is to pro-
cure information regarding dissolved
and suspended matter carried in the
waters of streams of California and
the vicinity. 1t is declared by the sur
vey officials that this will be of great
benefit to the people of the State. 1t
will afford information concerning the
rivers whose waters are best adapted
for municipal uses, irrigation and in
dustrial uses and the adoption of sys-
tens of water publication. The in
vestigation shows that the rivers flow
ing from the Sierras carry excellent
waters for all purposes. while those
flowing from the Coast Range are not
of a similar high quality The final
report on this matter will not be made
for several months.

CLAIM OF BRYAN'S REGIMENT
Nebraska MiIitiamen Are to Be Paid
for Days Intervening Between
Heporffng and Mastering In

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2s.-The auditor
for the War Department has admitted
the claim of W. J. 6ryan's regiment,
the Third Nebraska Volunteers, for
SIS, ,240, being the rate of pay allowed
at State rates for the regiment from
the time the men reported for duty
during the Spanish American war until
they were mustered into the service.
The claim does not include an item of
$4,000 claimed by officers of the regi-
ment, which amount will doubtless be
approved in accordance with the rul-
ings made today. AS there are about
1000 men in the regiment, the average
amount to each man will be something
less than $50.

demurred at first, but later yielded.
The Supervisors, Ruef and the Mayor
are in absolute ignorance as to the
amount of evidence in the possession
of Burns. Every effort has been made
to gather information on this point,
but it has met with no success. Ruefs
constant exhortation to the Super
visors has been to stand pat.
They don't know all the facts, how
can they? They are only blufing."
These are the words he addresses to
his men. When he learns the full ex-

Burns possession he will be astounded.

PIGEONS THAT HAVE SENSE
THESE BIRDS FOLLOW THEIR
OWNER TO SCHOOL.

The Distance from the Home CC
School Is Two Miles, But the
Pigeons Located Oscar Mullis.
Mary, who had little lamb, now
has a rival in Oscar Mullis, son Of
Mr.. Win. Mullis of Reedy Springs,
Laurens county, who has pair Of
pigeons.
Mary's lamb followed her to school
one day and now Oscars pigeons
have accomplished the same feat.
Oscars pigeons are not fancy stock,
but just plain, everyday, old fashion
ed pigeons. They are the kind that
delights in flying here and there in
Gods clear sunlight in search of a
grain of corn, a worm or good
time. While Oscar is at school the
pigeons do not appear to enjoy them
selves greatly, but sit around and
pine for his return. AS soon as he
reaches home they become animated
with life agaid and act as other pig
cons do.
A few days ago Oscar went to school
at Rentz as usual, leaving his pigeons
at home. He had not been in school
long before two birds very much re-
Sembling his were seen on the window
sill of the school house endeavoring
10 get in. Oscar recognized them as
his property, and when he opened the
window in they came. Oscar secured
the permissionof his teacher to take
them home, which he did.
The distance from his home to the
school house is two miles. How the
pigeons were able to follow the young
man and find where he was at school
IS mystery, but it is true neverthe-

Construction foreman Mitchell. of

men at work on the west side for the

has been somewhat delayed on &C
count of the non-arrival of paint. 1t
is the custom to give the poles one
coat of paint before erecting them
and then to finish the painting after
they are up. Several hundred gallons
of paint arrived in the city Saturday
and now all poles will be painted be-
fore being set up.
Mitchell says that all the work will
be completed at one time. No part of
the city will be finished first. as all
the new lines are to be run into the

men will be taken on and it is ex-
pected that within two weeks a force
of about 1885 men will be at work in
