is surely the most wonderful city
of the nation. Think of a city of
10000 people, with no commerce,
no manufacturing to speak of, and
yet doubling in population every
10 years, or less, and proportionate-
ly, as metropolitan as Chicago or
Cleveland or Cincinnati.
Her commerce is almost confined
to the semiweekly arrival of San
Francisco steamers. Her manufac-
tories are brewery and lumber
mill, the material for the latter of
which is RATED down from Oregon
That's all. There are no exports
save few beans and citrus fruits.
The whole of San Diego county pro-
duces naught save these and the
vegetables for home consumption.
Yet, there is half square mile
of pretty solid business section in
which reality trebles or increases
10 times in five years. A corner,
sold five years ago for $4,000, is
now held at $250.000. Residence
property within a mile of the bust
ness center sold, five years ago, for
$500, and last week brought $500.
In spite of it's lack of those things
which usually determine the growth
of cities, San Diego keeps right on

(By United Press Leased WIre.)

COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 30-A cas-
ualty list of 200 persons injured by
night sticks and dubbed rifles, re-
spectively in the hands of police
and state militia, aroused general
protest today over the unnecessary
brutality on the part Of the state
troops and the municipal force.
Forty persons are under arrest for
rioting, in addition to the injured
in the hospitals.
The disorder started last night
after it had been announced that
battery c, which has been on duty
during a street car strike here,
would be removed from duty Satur-
day. 1t is now thought that the an
nouncement was made to discover
what condition would result with
the removal of troops.
The people were led to believe
that the battery was breaking camp.
Rioting began at once and soon the
police were powerless. Without
warning the guardsmen appeared
and soon were restoring order by
the promuscuous use Of their
dubbed rifles.

The girl to whom Carloni was en-

Their courtship had begun to wane
so Carloni said. because she had
met another man whom she loved
more than Carloni.
Carloni attempted reconcilia

dead in her home with her throat
