TIL FAIN- IS OF HEALTH
sSmose Fills Out the Curves and Makes

Thin People Fat.
Perfect health and good, solid beauti-
ful flesh can only come through tho
use OF Samose, the remarkable flesh
forming food.
This makes the thin and scrawny,
plump and robust; il mixes with the
food so that all of the elements that
make solid bone firm muscle and good
flesh are thoroughly assimilated and
retained in the system.
There are thousands of unhappy ner-
vous thin people who would look and
feel entirely different if.they were only
fat and plump. Let them use Samose
and they will soon notice remarkable
results.
These statements are confirmed by
n. b. Danforth's offer to refund the
money to anyone buying and using
Samose who does not gain in weight
as promised. The risk is all his. The
thin and scrawny can buy Samose at

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
REVIVE ANNUAL BALL
California Council Will Give
Dance at Palace Hotel

The annual ball of California coun-
Gil. knights of Columbus, at the
Palace hotel January 26 will be a re-
union of all bay city knights, for in
vitations to the affair have been sent
by the local council to their brother
organizations in communities near by
Many acceptances have come in from
out of town councils and AN unusually
large attendance is anticipated at the
function.
Great interest attaches to the ball
because it is the first event of the
kind given by California council No.
$50 since the fire. Before that time
the council was locally famous for it's
brilliant affairs. and those who tripped
many a merry measure at previous
functions anticipate an evening of
pleasure.
Several of the eager dancers, though
they had received no invitations as yet
to the affair, heard a report that it
was to take place last night, and ac-
cordingly they appeared at the Palace
ready for one of the oldtime affairs
Their disappointment was keen when
they learned that another organization
was making merry at the Palace, and
that the. knights of Columbus ball
would not take place until Wednesday
evening, January 26

MCDONALD NAMED
FOR HIGH POSITION
Will Become Auditor of the
Southern Pacific in San
Francisco
Succeeds c. B. Seger, Whose
Rise in Railroad World
Has Been Rapid

A. d. Mcdonald. formerly chief clerk
to c. B. Seger in the auditing depart
ment of the Southern Pacific company.
and at present auditor and secretary
of the Pacific electric railway of Los
Angeles is to be Seger's successor as
auditor of the Southern Pacific COM
pany in this city.
The announcement of the appoint
ment of Mcdonald was received at the
Southern Pacific headquarters late yes
terday afternoon. Mcdonald was with
the Southern Pacific for many years.
being chief clerk of the Pacific system
of the auditing department..
The announcement of the appoint
ment of Seger to succeed Erastus Young
as auditor of the Hartman system of
railroads was no surprise to his many
friends in San Francisco. 1t was an
nounced in May of this year that Seger
was to succeed Young June l. Young
had always expressed a desire to round
out so years of service with the Union
Pacific. This desire was gratifed, as
his so years of railroad service ends
the last day of this year.
Few men in the railroad world have
advanced so rapidly as Seger, and 1t
is all the more notable. as he has
grown up with the Hartman system,
having worked for no other railroad
corporation since he entered railroad
service as an office boy at the age of

was chief. and when the Southern Pa
cific bought out the old Morgan line,

who had made a good record, was
placed in the accounting department.
When the Texas law, compelling the
segregation of the various Southern
Pacific railroads in Texas and Louisi-
ana, went into effect Seger was sent to
Houston as auditor of the Galveston,
Harrisburg and San Antonio, and Texas
and New Orleans railroad. His abil
ity won instant recognition, for not
only was he placed in Charge of the
auditing department of all the Texas
lines, but he had also charge of the
auditing Offices in New Orleans and
New York. His salary was then $500
a year. Later on Seger was brought
from Houston and given George T.
Kinks place.
His work in Texas was as child's
play compared to the work he was
compelled to perform in this city, where
he has supervised the work of the ac-
counting departments of the passenger
department. hotels and dining cars,
auditor car accounts, freight claim
agent, general accounting department.
besides the accounts of all travelling
auditors. Many regrets have been ex-
pressed that Seger's new position would
compel his leaving San Francisco.
Railroadmen prophesy a still more
brilliant future for Seger, as he is only
just past Al years of age. In just
26 years. from an office boy at about
S. a week. he has risen to be general
auditor of the biggest railroad sys-
tenn in the world. with a salary some
thing like $4,000 year. 1t is pos
sible that he will make his general
offices at Chicago instead of at Omaha.

Ocean Shore Director Petitions
Court to Impose Conditions
on Receivers Certificates
Pillsbnry Asks Accurate Esti=
mate of Amount Needed to
Complete Road

Horace d. Pillsbury, member of the
board of directors of the Ocean shore
railway. petitioned the United States
circuit court yesterday to deny Re
ceiver F. S. Stratton power to issue
receivers certificates unless setting
forth in detail the purposes for which
the money is to be used. He also asked
Judge w. w. Morrow of the court to
appoint an impartial body of engineers
to make an accurate report on the
amount needed to complete the line
Then, with future contingencies fore
seen, he would agree to the issue.
1t is for the purpose of protecting
the 36 first mortgage bonds he owns
that Pillsbury intervenes in the Bald
win locomotive works suit for an ac-
counting against the distressed road.
The petition follows the statement
of Stratton to the bond holders last
week, in which it was announced that
the court would be asked to issue re-
ceivers certificates to the amount of
$3,50O,e0O, based upon a rough esti-
mate of engineers and officials of the
company These certificates would take
precedence even over the mortgage
bonds. The majority of bond holders
have given Stratton full power to act
for them.
. The petition, filed by Attorney Alfred
Sutro, makes a careful summary of the
roads present status. Bonds were first
issued, it states, on an estimated total
cost of $5,O00,000. Then capital stock
was issued at SIS share, on which
SIS a share was later levied in assess
ment The road now owns 2,152 OF
these shares bid in at a delinquency

TALBOT & MOORE CLOSE.
FOLD CIRCLE is ACTIVE.

That the camp of Gold Circle, New,
is doing its share of producing and
is coming to the front as a mining
center is shown in the shipments of
ore which are being made from there.
A few days ago ]. B. Fayant, accom-
panied by Constable A. H. Johnson
of pGolconda, went to Winnemucca
with $4,000 worth of gold bullion,
tional bank and is now on the way to
the mint in Denver.
The gold was taken from the Gay
ant-Schloss lease on the Esmeralda
mine and was reduced in the Tad
more mill. This, with other ship
ments which have been made re-
Gently, indicate that there is much ac-
tivity in the Gold Circle district. Mr..
Fayant says that the milling facilities
which have been introduced recently
in the form of the Tadmore mill have
made possible the opening of the Gold
Circle camp on a large scale. Prop
erty which was lying idle was imme-
diately opened up and worked when
the mill was erected. There are many
properties which are being worked at
present and much good ore is being
milled.
James Boyle, who is working a
lease on the Esmeralda, is having a
large quantity of ore milled.
On Fraser creek, where the Glas-
gov & Western Exploration COM
pany is operating the Morning Star
property, very rich ore has been en-
countered. The ore is a tellurium
and carries very high values in gold.
Mathews & Sanders, who are oper-
ating a lease on the Queen, will have
a shipment of bullion within a few
days.
A lot of fine ore has lately been
milled from the Marcus lease on the
Queen property.
