Municipality to Build Great Head- works and Save Thousands Annually. Within a year municipal ownership and control of water works will be a fact in Los Angeles. Such is the ovinion of Mayor M. P. Snyder, who has been 1n this [ vermit the payment of a sum much in ex- | cess of that. | In the meantime Los Angeles is ex- { pectant. T e present officials desire to have the whole water question finally set- tled before the expiration of their term of office, a year and a half hence. And the | Water company 1s desirous of a de'ay. | * Los Anpeles will have an abundance of Wwater taken from the mountainsand the Los Angeles River, and the fall from the propos=d headworks will be great ¢nough to give a poweriul head in the city—one capable of throwing a stream, without the aid of a fire engine, over the top of the highest buiiding that muy be erected in Los Angeles. Municipal lights are a future possibility from this source of power, but for the present the city is hoping only for prompt possession of its property and the annual | saving many thousands of dollarsto the citizens, and the Mayor says thatali | is going wel LEAGUE OF THE GROSS. | A Successful Essay Contest Held by | St. Joseph’s Branch. { Tue junior branch of the League of tbe Cross Cadets connected with St. Joseph’s | parish held a highly successful rally and | essay contest in St. Joseph’s Hatl Monday night. The exercises were opened with the singing of a hymn, followed by a prayer, after which a piano solo was rendered by Harry Hay. Then came the readinz of essays on “Temperance, tbe Foundation of True M »" Two were presented, one Harrington and _the other Thomzs cKeever. Both were written in a masterful man- ner, which showed the authors not only to be well informed on 1heir subjects but that the ideas embodied in their essays | bad been wrought into their very lives by | a careful of traiGing. The —Rev. Broiher George, Rev. J. Do yd Miss Josie Moholy—after | due Geliberation, decided ihe essay of Mr. McKeever to bs the best, and ne wili ve- cordingly represent the parish in the dis- trict essavy contest, which will be held within a few weeks.

It said nothing, but d the water com- pany some little ime_ago for an itemized | the added properties and im- ny furnished went eare- ly and painstakingly to work with this data. He ascertained not oniy cost ol each piece of pruperty but its va ue he cost of each separate piece of work. ‘With all these details he estimated the total value of improvements to be $1,190,640. The water company was then asked for its yaluations. 1is reply was $3.000,000. To quote Mayor Sanyder: “When we produced our engineer's report it para- lyzed the water company. Itisone of the most complete and splendid reports ot separate items of waier improvements possessed by any cityin this country. They saw that no arbitrator coula get around the city's valuation, it was so carefully itemized. The water company is now delaying the appointment of arbi- trators contrary to the agreement.” Some time ago, says Mayor Bnyder. the city made an effort to buy a tractof 29 acres in a favorable location for a head- works for the water system. The owners oricinally offered to sell the land for $20,000 A jury afterward placed a value of §22.000 on the property during con- demnation proceedihgs. Now the owners refuse to sell at any price. They have ap- pealed 1o the Snpreme Court and 1ts deci- sion wili not be rendered before October. The city’s dai'y supply of water is 1250 miner's bes, of which the water com- pany owns butsix inches, although it pays on the basis of ten inches. By building an extensive headworksand sinking dams to bedrock Mayor Snyder eays the city proposes to demonstrate to the wa er company that the company does not own aninch of water, but that the iittle excess they claim to have developed comes really from city sources.

The removal of the Bay District race- | track from the Richmond district bas been the means of opening up a large section of } that locality for building purposes. There are 800 building lots in the old racetrack | proper, with 1200 lying directly west, be- | tween Third and Tenth avenues. These | avenues have been improved by the shift- | ing of the sandt which stood opposite the racetrack to fill in the deep hollow that lay in tne center of the oval when it | was devoted to racing parposes. i The transformation of this entiresection calied for an outlay of $300,000. The con- | tract for filling in, grading and sewering | the streets and avenues within the race- | track called for $200,000. To obrain the | sand from the adjoining bluff cost $100,- 1000. All of this went for labor. The work | is now near completion and when finished sixty-six building blocks will be opened éor building purposes in the Richmond istrict. This new addition to the improved out- side property will add thousands of dol- lars to the assessment-roll .of the City in the course of a few years, As it is, Rich- mond real estate has improved not only | in demand but also in value.

LL FIGHT ONDER WATER The Result of a Study of Submarine Navigation by C. F. Martin. A San Francisco Man Invents a Boat That He Thinks Will Do Wonders. Plans and Specifications to Be Sub- mitted to the Fulton Iron Works. The result of the studies of C. F. Martin may now be seen in a model of a new tor- pede-boat at his residence, 115 Fourteentn | street. This modei, with the accompany- plans and specifications, indicates at he has not only given his attention o ships along the water front of San rancisco, but he has studied the various torpedo-boais designed by others and cor- recied their mistzkes to such an extent tbat he is ready to furnish a boat that he says will de-troy everything in the way of an offensive flotilla from a monster battle- ship to any other torpelo-boat that floats. It was the model of the fish torpedo that was selected by Mr. Martin, and his poat will look like an immense fish with a very sharp-pointed nose. The boat, when in action, will be 84 feet long, with a diameter of 12 feet. Mr. Martin feels sure that it will make 24 knots on the sur- face and 16 under water. There will be four engines in the boat, two gasoline and two compressed air, On the surface one gasoline engine will send the boat along, while the other will be used for the purpose of compressing theair which is to be stored in cyclinders for use under water. When the boat dips ner nose down and starts for the enemy, the gasoline engine will be shiftea aside and {one of the compressed air engines wiil take its place, while the other will work tue pumps which fiill and empty the water tanks, by which method the boat | will be raised and lowered in the water. In the engine-room there will be a plat- form on which two men will stand, one directing the mcvements of the vessel while the other will manipulate the tor- pedo, which is 1o do the wurk of destruc- tion. These two, wita the engineer, will compose the entire crew. In place of a turret from officers of the vessel may ob:erve the enemy there will be three deadlights, which will have something of the appear- ance of the eyes of sn ailigator when he lies pasking on too of the water. These deadlights will have an elevation of bat eight inches from the surface of the boat and will be of such construction that thiey will offer very little, if any, resistance to the water as the vessel passes through it. The boat is to be propelied by a powerful screw of four blades. Back of the screw will be the rudcer, which will also operate as a keel. The construction of the boat will be of a nature to make it combine great strength with lightpess. The four ribs running from end to end will be steel girders and these will be sheathed with circular sheets ing two-inch plates of stcel, and will thus en- able ibe boat to be used asa powerful ram. The only two openiugs in the boat, aside from this provisional hatchway, are the entering haich and the hatch through which the torpedoes are to be ejected. When in action one torpedo will lie in the ejector ready for firing, while a second will be held in acompartment in the rear of the engine room ready to be passed for- ward by the aid of compressed air. ‘While it is intended that the boat can remain completely submerged and in action for six hours, there is no arrange- ment for cooking or sleeping., It is esti- first beat, and thereaiter they will cost about $25,000. The plans and specifica- tions are to be submitted to the Fulton Iron Works next week, and if the bia on the first boat does not meet the expecta- tions, then they will Le sent to New Jersey. MONUMENT COMMITTEE, Preparations for the Great Tournament at the Presidio Are Now Being Made. President W. W. Stone and the mem- bers of the executive committee for the Lincoln monument are busy making the final preparations for the great military tournament field day at the Presidio on September 9, Admission day. Arrangements are almost complete for the erection of the seats on the grand stand, a portion of whick will be reserved from $1 to 50 cents, according to location. Quite a nuruber wi.l, however, be arranged av 2 cents. Those will afford quite as good a view of the field as the more choice ones, with the difference, of course, 1n the comfort. The military authorities, as also the boys in blue, are taking the greatest possi- bie interest in the event to come off. They are all on tiptoe with excitement over the contemplated day’s sports. The various railroad lines running in the direction of the Presidio have con- sented to advertise the event on their cars from now until the day uvon which it will come off, and besides this several quarter- cards will be piaced in the show windows of the principal stores between now and Admission day. Contributions from the school children are steadily coming in to swell the $3000 aiready in the treasurer's hands. ———— Teachers’ Ald Soclety.

Found That the Hair Was Not Burned When the Weapon Was Held Close. He Agrees With Other Doctors for the Defense That &uicide Was Possible. The cross-examination of Dr. R. E. Wiltiams was continued yesierday morn- ing in the Figel case. He testified that the muscles of the body do notrelax en- tirely when uanconsciousness is produced by a gunshot wound. He thought the wound in Hoffman’s cheek would have the effect of producing unconsciousness, and to inflict the wound in the temple after having inflicted the one in the cheek the party must have been conscious. In the opmnion of wit- ness, if Hoffman had inflicted the wound in the cheek first he must bave fired the shot causing the wouad in the temple im- mediately afterward. Mr. Ach asked the doctor in whose tes- | timony as to the wounds he would place the most reliance—that of the autopsy physician, who bad made a careful ex- | amination, or that of the physician of the Recerving Hospital, who had made an ex- amination lasting only ten minutes. This was objecied to, and Judge Campbell ruled tbat it was the province of the court 10 decide us to the credibility of wit- nesses. | On béing asked the witness said that in | | testifying that he thought Hoffman coula | have inflicted the wounds on himself he had not taken inio consideration the | | amount of blood lost nor the fact that the | deceased was a righ:-handed man. He | thought that after being kuocked down | by the shock from the wounds Mr. Hoff- that are read. They are unprintable, be- cause of their libelous character. But | afier insinuating that his ex-wife was not | a fit subject for canonization Mr. Farrell opens his arms and his beart and declares with emotion that with all ber faults he | loves her still, or rather that he loves her yet. As Mrs, Farrell is a respectable indus- trious woman the postals sent to her at her place of employment at Ross Valley, in Marin County. have annoyed and humiliated her very much, and she com- | plained to the Postal Inspectors. Robert | was arrested on Mouday by the Uuited | States Marshal, and he will have to ex- plain to a jury how he expected to win back his wife by abusing her. Farrell was taken before United States Commissioner Heacock yesterday and { waived examination. He was admitted | to bail in the sum of §550. Mrs. Farrell turned over to Postal In- spector Erwin a dispatch received by her | a day or two ago from Farrell stating that ii she did not return to him he would con- tinue sending the annoying postals. Farrell was connected with several newspapers in Scuthern California as a | writer for several years. At the last ses- sion of the Legisiature he occupied the position cf watchmaz in the Senate Cbam- | ber. Mrs. Farrell is working for the family of & lawyer near Ross S:ation, | Marin County, and the posials annoying tue lawyer's family as well as Mrs. Far- rell, ber employer advised her to have Farrell arrested Farrell acted yesterdav as thouzh he had been drinking heavily, and appeared to be siupefied from the effects of liquor. . DOG PEDIGREE DISPUTE, Pacific Advisory Board Invest'gates Serious Charges Against a City Dealer. The Pacific Advisory Board of the American Kennel Club met at the Occi- dental Hotel last night and investigated a ! charge of frandulent pedigree. Thecharge had been preferred by George 8. Fife against B. Straus of 411 Kearny street and Wade Collins, an employe of Straus, for baving sold Fife a St. Bernard dog claimed to be by Victor Watch out of Lady Mona, | two San Franciscodogs. Straus said after the sale that he had found the pedigree to be fraudulent, and he laid the blame on his employe. Collins, when summoned before the board, testified that he had knowingly given the pedigree. A decision in the case will be repdered on the first Tuesday in September, when the board will hold its next regular meet- ing. If found guiity the penalty is either suspension or disqualification. The latter punishment is severe. It means that tne disqualitied man can never again show a dog 1n any kennei club in the United | States or in Canada; can never again reg- ster a dog; cannot even lead a dog or act as an employe at a dog show, and the dogs he may sell cannot be registered. e | man might have got up and walked from one room {0 the o.her. | On redirect examination he stated that | an artery severed by a builet does not | | bleed so freely as when cut with a knile. | Mr. Ach remarked that from the smount | of blood found in the offices where Hoff. man was sbot ue thought there must have | been rather profuse bleeding. General Barnes replied that a very little | blood went a iong way, and gave as an ex- ample slight scratches in a prize-tight | causiag proiuse bleeding without in any wav weakening the man losing the blood. Dr. George F. Shiels testified that he was an associate professor of surgery in the medical department of the University of California. He had considerable ex- perience in the use of firearms and had made experiments to ascertain the effect of firinza revoiver from different distances ata human body. Asked totell of these experiments be said: “I fired nine or ten shots into an amputed human arm which had consider- able bair onit. When the revolver was | beld haif an inch from the arm there was | a smudge but potattoo. Atan irch there | was a smudge and sometimes tattoo and a | singeing of the hair. Ateight inches there was a tattoo, but further than that there was no smudge. There was no tattoo- ing at fourteen inches. The wound be- | came less jugged and smaller the farther the pistol was held.”’ The witness had known of a case where | the sphenoid bone had been fractured, the | roof of the mouth torn away and the brain injured, yet the patient had walked | and was conscious, He thought a person might lose as much astwo quarts of blood without becoming unconscious. General Barnes asked Dr. Shiels the same questions he has askea all the ex- pert witnesses as to the distance the re- | volver was held from Hoffman's head. Judge Campbell again sustaived the ob- jections to the questions. | * Dr. Shiels said he thought It vossible | that Hoffman’s woands were seli-inflictea. | He also testitied that suicides most ire- | quently suot themseives in the mouth, | and the wounds of homicides are gener- ally in the body. In the cross-examination Mr, Ach asked if the bullet found in Hoffman’s stomach could have faiien there by force of gravity. Dr. Shiels answered that it could not, but on being closeiy questioned stated that the patient might have involuntarily swallowed the bullet, The witness said he knew Figel—had met him on the night of June 1 on the boat as he wa~ going home. Mr. Ach asked if it wasn’t a fact that paid medical experts wereinclined to show bias for the side which employed them. Dr. Shiels replied tnat it was unfortu- nately true in some cases; but tha: if counsel insinuated that an honorable phy- sician would do such a thing he would take it as a gross insult. Dr. Shiels further testified as to his ex- periments on the arm that the hair had been curled up a little by the shotsatclose range, but was not burned. The powder smudges were easilv washed off with a sponge. He <aid there was no flash perceptible when the pistol was held close to the arm. Mr. Ach requested the doctor to try a further experiment with a pistol held half an inch distant from an object. The doc- tor will tesuify to-day as to whether or not be found that a flash was perceptiole. FARRELL WROTE HIS LOVE, He Annoyed His Divorced Wife by For- giving Her for Nothing. Robert Farrell loved his wife not wisely but too well. It is dangerous to volunteer love where it is not demanded, and it leads to unpleasant consequences to thrust it where it encounters 2 woman who has been scorned or who scorns. His wife Mary is a buxom woman with a sweet smile, but Robert lost his grip on his affinity-compelling hyonotic power, and the consequence was that Mary and he drifted apart and ceased to be friends. A few months ago tue golden chain of mat- rimony was severed by a decree of court, and Mary faced the eold una heartless world anew as a grass widow. Absence, however, made the heart of Robert grow fonder, and he opened a cor- respondence with his wife by meansof postal cards. It is the experience of the postoftice department that postal cards are never reaa by inquisitive postmis- tresses or tarriers unless the postal con- tains something abusive or indecent. Mr. Farrell’s postals are of the class The fac-simile signature of is on every wrapper _of CASTORIA, Five Days to Leave the City.
