Aug NUARDS DUNLAP THE FRANCHSES Action of Santa Clara Supervisors Causes Trouble. | g ety Two Other Bidders for Rail- way Rights Will Appeal to the Courts. SR Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE. Aug. 19.—After a somewhat pyrotechnical session of the Board of Su- pervisors this forenoon, franchises cover- ing more than ninety miles of proposed eiectric roads In this county were awarded to George T. Dunlap of Gilroy, over the protests of two other bidders. The pro- ceedings were sensational from the fact that, where no opposition to Dunlap was | expected, two additional bidders were in the field. Protests were filed and one of these bidders threatens indirectly to take the affair into court at once, claiming | irregularity on the part of the members | of the board. | Dunlap bid $250 each for three franchises and $500 for the fourth, from San Jose to San Mateo County. E. Myron Wolf of San Francisco bid for two of the fran- chises $625 and $260, respectively, more than Dunlap, while on the other two he was much lower. Henry Newburg of San Francisco bid 4% per cent of the earnings of the road after five years. In the face of, the competing and higher bids_the award was made to the Gilroy man. This brought on the storm which may result in tying up the franchises for some time. The roads. for which franchises are asked will radlate from San Jose to all the principal points in the county. All of the bidders are agents and refuse to dis- close their backers. MALICIOUS STREET ARABS SET FIRE TO PAVILION Timely Discovery of Blaze Prevents Heavy Loss to Agricultural Park Association. SAN JOSE, Aug. 19.—That the big barn- like pavilion on the Alameda, which was first a white elephant on the hands of the Rose Carnival committee of four years ago and afterward the evil spirit of the Board of Trade before its demise, is not in ashes as well as $25,000 worth of prop- erty belonging to the Agricultural Park Association, is a matter of good fortune. Last night after 12 o'clock _three bo: i Preston, Lloyd and Hubert Burnett, nes- | lected lads from a large family residing | on Cinnabar street, entered the building from the roof, climbed down ta the lower | floor and set fire to_the structure in four | different places. They afterward made g00d their escape to a safe distance, there | to watch the conflagration. Fortunately | the hostlers engaged in the care of the | horses in training in the park. saw the reflection, sounded an alarm and a bucket brigade extinguished the fire. The boys are only street arabs, none of them over 1¥ years of age. The Sheriff brought them to the jail this evening, but the Judge saw no use in holding them and let them go. Neither the pavillon nor the other prop- erty of the association around it is in- sured. Had the boys succeeded in starting | a quick blaze they could not have es- caped before they themselves had been suffocated. . KILLED BY FALLING ROOF OF HER HOME Heavy Rains Melt the Walls of an Adobe Building and It Sud- b denly Collapses. RANDSBURG, Aug. 19.—Reports from Ballarat state that Mrs. Layton, an old | lady, was killed by the roof of her house | falling on her during the heavy rainstorm of Thursday last. She and her husband were in the house when he noticed the roof moving a little and grabbed her hand and started for the door. He got outside. but the old lady was caught, and when they got her out she was dead. The house was adobe and the rain melted the walls. Another fatal accident during the same | storm was the drowning of a man named | Fitzgerald in Shepherd's Canyon. Fitz- gerald was an old-timer and pioneer of the desert. Nothing is known of the cir- cumstances_of his death cxcept the find- ing of his body. The rain was terrible in that country and tore out everything from the canyons and in old Panamint Canyvon. Nearly all the houses were more or less damaged | and in the narrows down the canyon there are marks up the sides of the cliff fully sixty feet above the ground. All the trees | and everything movable were washed out and immense rocks were moved. DECISION IN FAVOR | OF RAISIN COMBINE | Seropian Brothers Must Deliver Fruit | Sold to Packers by the Asso- ciation. FRESNO, Aug. 19.—Judge Austin ren- dered judgment this morning in favor of the raisin combine against Seropian Bros. for the delivery of 297.450 pounds of rai- sins of the unsold and left cver crop of 1900. In case deljvery cannot be had, they must pay the value thereof, $9,038 76, with $217 88 damages for detention. By reason of like refusals of other raisin men to de- liver up unsold and warehoused raisins to the packers' combine, to which the asso- | clation sold the left-over crop in a lump | lot, the recent raids were made on ware- houses to recover ralsins in Fresno and Madera counties, title to which was claimed in the combine under contract with the growers. ‘Will Play for the Orphanage.

MADE STRONG A% WELL A Prominent Lady Raised From a Sick Bed by Pe-ru-na---Entirely Cured in Two Weeks. R | Mrs. E. A. Crozler, Senior Vice Presi- dent of the James Morgan Post, W. R. C., the largest corps in Minnesota, writes from “The Landour,” 9th and Nicollet, Minneapolls, Minn., as follows: ““Please accept hearty thanks on behalf of Peruna, that wonderful medicine which raised me from a sick bed and made a strong and well woman of me in two weeks. | suf- fered with bearing-down pains, back- ache and continual headache, and found no relief until | tried Peruna. It cured me completely, and I feel as young and well as when 18. | wish !nr! woman knew the merits of the medicine, and no home would be without it.”"—Mps. E. A. Crozier. Mrs. Wm. Henderson, Bordulac, N. C., ‘writes: “I was troubled with very serious fe- male weakness; had spells of flowing that exhausted me so that I feared I would lose my mind. I suffered untold agony with my back, the pain extending down my left leg. My pain was so severe that I would have welcomed death at any mo- ment—so no one need wonder that I rec- ommend Peruna so highl for it cured me entirely of that: Not a sign of pain has returned, and that will soon be two years now. “I am glad that there is a way I can speak, trusting that many a sufferer will read my testimonial, and not only read, but believe.”—Mrs. Wm. Henderson. FOR WOMEN ONLY. Free Treatment During Hot Weather by Dr. Hartman. By the assistance of an experienced atufi of physicians Dr. Hartman proposes to direct the treatment of several thou- sand women, who, for one reason or an- other, are ailing.
