1snecial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
SAN FRANCISCO, July -23.-When
the different county Boards OF super
yisors meet in September, to Tx the
tax rate, they win determine the ex-
tent in which their Counties Will be
able to participate in the California
Counties Building, which, SO far as
California is concerned, will be the
chief feature of the Panama-Pac1hc
International Exposition. Those coun-
ties which levy the tax authorized by
the last Legislature will be in posi-
ton to take advantage of what will be
the greatest advertising opportunity
that has ever come to them, or prop
ably ever will come to them,-to ex-
plot their products and resources to
the world.
Last year thirty-seven Counties
made a specia levy for Exposition
purposes. This year practically
every county in the State is expected
to make the full levy, for seems to
be we'll understood by them that, in
order to conform to plans adopted by
the counties to make the California:
Counties Building and exhibits the
most triking feature of the Exposition,
every county will need to take ad-
vantage of Legislative authorization
and levy the full six cents on the 500
tax every year from now until the ex-
position opens.
The Counties Building, which was
agreed upon at the State Convention
of Supervisors, in Bakersfield in May,
and subsequently ratified by meet
ing of Supervisors and their County
Exposition Commissioners, held in the
ST. Francis Hotel, in San Francisco,
on June goth, provides that the Cali
forRia Counties shall lie the real hosts
at the Exposition, and that their hos
pitality shall take such shape as to ad-
Eertise California more effectively
than any State was ever before adver-
tised.
In order to carry out this it is plan
red to erect a building of imposing
architecture that will combine every
essential for equity exhibits, as wei
as receptions, banquets and other Soc
ial functions; aid to arrange so that
no visitor can enter the social section
OF the building without passing
through the exhibits of the different
counties of the State.
During the Exposition period the
Counties will arrange for a constant
succession of County Days, on eacn OF
which some one county will play the
part of host to the visitors attending
the exposition, and the county that is
host for the day will be given the use
Of the building for that purpose. BY
this arrangement there will not. be
single day when California is not do
ing the entertaining. The fame of her
hnsnitalifv will be snread Throughout.

fact that the farmer by his custom keeps

He asks the farmer to vote for the sa-

of the saloon it becomes difficult for the

more expensive and his land of less
value.

NOSE vooEL's STORY.

1T was along back In the seven
ties" said Nose, '.that Dave Cum.
mings, then In the height Of his fame
as . crook, met mo on the Bowsry.
and We went together down to the old
Atlantic Garden. Suddenly Dave
turned to me and said: I think you
are on the Level. Nose felt that
this was q big compliment, coming
from Dave. for he was an independent
high.strung fellow, who would pass
up Q thousand thieves without giving
one the nod Of his head.
II told Dave that I had always tried
to be square and to live up to that
wheeze in the copy.books about hon.
esty being the best policy He didn't
ask me to 80 IN with him then or
even let out to me what was in his
mind. That wasn't Dawes way. But
I knew he had his eye on me a. q
bright Lad that was sure to rise In his
profession. He did ask me to step
down to Murray's with him, saying he
needed little money and was In the
mind to have whack ct Murray's
game. He had Just made q big haul
somewhere and had about $4,000; 90
I didn't think there was any chance Of
him going TO work right away. but
the cards ran against him and In less
than q week the whole bank roll had
passed into Murray's hands.
Seeing how things were going with
Dave I sort Of held myself open, turn
ing down several good offers Of hish
class work. Sure enough he finally
hunted me up. He had q newspaper
clipping about Q big special deposit
100000, lying IN bank In Jersey
City that he'd planted, and Just wait.
ing for somebody to come ana get Il.
It made my mouth water TO think oe
Ill that money.
Dave said the work had 20 be
started right away, before the money
was paid out and 70, after taking q
look az my engagement book, I told
him I was free to 60 20 work any
time. We went right up to Harry
Hills place that night and Dave in.
troduced mo to Ed. Johnson and Dago
Frank, pair Of Al western crooks
who had worked OF several big tricks
with Dave already.
The NEXT day We went By different
routes to Jersey City and picked out
= quiet boarding house near Union

bank then began for fair.
