tened with attention.
Golden stated that the receiver
should have at least $4,000 more on
hand than he has and the court re-
quested list of the accounts Golden
considers can be collected by simply
going after them.
Golden also paid his respects to
the attorneys for the receiver and
Hofer, declaring that they have pub
licly stated that the assets are worth
little or nothing but the court stated
that he would strike this out if the
request We're made. He told how he

bank examiner on the condition of

On cross examination by Boyd Col
den said that the First National bank
at San Francisco holds about $1,000
worth of collateral security for about
100000 worth of loans, that the col
lateral security is good, and that it
will more than pay off, and then Boyd
! asked him if this is why he pledged
| his property to the First National
Bank.
On further cross examination Col
den stated that he has never decided
any of his personal property to the
Nye and Ormsby Couny bank to Sc
cure his own indebtedness to the in
stitution, that he does not regard his
property pledged to the First National
bank of San Francisco as guarantee
ing any of the loans of that bank to

and that he has not decided any of
his personal property to help the bank
out, but has decided it to protect his
individual loans from the First Nat

In face of the statements frequently
made that Golden impoverished him
self to pay off the Nye and Ormsby

like to know why money belonging

the receiver. Until he can give me

new SENSATION FOR DoBBIN
Come to Think Of 1t, He Would Have
Felt Funny Sitting in the
Position Indicated.

The family horse, who rejoiced in
the eminently proper equine name of
Dobbin, had earned a rest by long
service. and was accordingly sent
away to the country to spend his de-
clining years in the broad pastures of
farmer friend of his owner. The
distance being somewhat excessive
for his rheumatic legs, he was shipped
to his new home by rail.
Little Edna, the family four-year-old,
viewed the passing of Dobbin with un.
feigned sorrow. She sat for a long
time gazing disconsolately out of the
window. At last, after deep sigh,
she turned with a more cheerful ex-
preston, and said:

China May Rightly Lay Claim to Line
That Is Unique Among Earth's
Railroads.

The most curious railroad In the
world is in China, and it was built
and financed solely by Chinese. 1t is
also operated by Cinnamon. 1t is
known as the Stunning railway, and its
terminus is at Kung Yik port, 100
miles southwest Of Canton.
At present there are 81 miles in op-
Grafton, and there are four miles un-
der construction, and four miles more
proposed, making total of 40 miles
when the whole enterprise is finished.
The idea of building this railroad
originated with Mr.. Chin Gee Hee,
who was then in the United States
and some subscriptions for stock were
secured from other Chinese residents
of the United States. The majority OF
the stock, however, is now owned by
residents of the Province Of Kwang
tung.
When the road was surveyed the
villagers we're very much opposed to
it and refused to sell land to the COM
pany to be used for railroad purposes,
but after meeting all these obstruc-
tions for a considerable time with
great patience the projectors finally
obtained their consent to and co-opera-
tion in it's construction.
The line is being constructed entire
ly by non-scientif1c Chinese. No per-
son of any nationality other than Chi.
nese has ever been connected in any
way with the building of this road. 1t
