Creeley that the city purchase a lot at First and Adeline streets from the Crocker estate for $10,000 and lease it to the crematory company was the bome of contention.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call. 1118 Broadway, Feb. 10. The proceedings brought by Willlam Baltzer to remove Constable Ed Weldler from office because of the alleged uniaw- ful retention of money, was dismissed by Judge Ellsworth to-day. The demurrer interposed by Attorney Chapman on be- half of Weldler was sustained on every point. The original cause will probabiy be tak- en up in the Superior Court, where it has been pending. Weldler ciaimed if he gave up the fees he would be liable. Weidler was charged with failure to turn over the proceeds from a sale of cows under an execution of judgment. The constable declared he kept the money pending a settlement of the original suit. SUBMARINE BOATS NOT NEW INVENTION | One Built in 1620 Which Navigated Thames With Twelve Passen- gers. About the vear 1620 there was con- | structed in London a submarine boat in | which twelve rowers and some passengers could stay. This vessel was actually nav- igated beneath the surface of the Thames from Westminster to Greenwich. Its in- ventor was a Dutch scientist and phil- osopher, Cornélius Drebbel, who was at one time a state councilor in Austria and had led an adventurous life. Escaping from prison in Bohemia, he went to Eng- land and was heartily welcomed by King James. Drebbel took up the thread of his studles and soon hls wonderful boat ap- peared on the Thames. The secret of its construction was carefully guarded. It is certain, however, that it was propelled by oars, and it appears to have embodied the prineiple common to all modern craft of the kind—water ballast compartments, with pumps for emptying them to restore the buoyancy of the vessel. Resplration | was obtalned by means of a wonderful liquid invented by him and called by him | “quintessence of air.” Artificial illumina- tion was provided by some novel method, for Drebbel laid stress on the fact that “in this boat a person could see under the | surface of the water and without candle light, as much as he needed to read In the Bible or any other book.” The vessel was | never fully perfected, and arter Drebbel's death, in 1634, was left to rot on the banks of the Thames.—Baltimore American. - ing Kahn, George Boas.

L Pereival Lowell, whose name is so inti- | mately connected with the recent investi- | gatlons and discoveries about the planet | Mars, lectured at the Art Gallery re- | cently before the department of as-| tronomy of tife Brooklyn Institute on! “The Planet Mars and Its System of | Canals.” Illustration was by lantern slide | aud consisted of projections of the planet. A new interest was added from the fact that the pointer was freely used and the explanation of the course of the canals ! anc the pecullaritles of the geographical features of Mars made an attractive por- | | tlon of the talk. The lecture was a fas- | | cirating study of the subject, because Mr. |j owell has the gift of pleasing address | ed to a comprehensive fund of knowi- edge upon which to draw. After a brief review of the information about the planet existing before his time, the discoveries of Schiaparelll were dis- cusged, and it was sald that he was the first to obtain definite knowledge about Mars. He began his Investigations in 1877, continued them for fifteen or more vears and since that time Mr. Lowell has carried on the work in his observatory at | F'lagstaff. Mars has no’mountains and no water, | that is, no large bodies of it, professor. The bright green portions that | were once supposed to be water are known to be vegetation, and the ochre- | tinted portion is desert. Canals run be- tween the pole caps of snow, drawing | from either according to the Inclination of the planet. There are 340 of these ! canals, and the longest is judged to be 3500 miles long. These radiate from cen- ters which may be receiving reservoirs. Teward the equator the desert increases in'size. These canals are said to give evi- | dence of an abllity in engineering far sur- passing anything known here. and that ls | perhaps not to be wondered at when It is | considered how much older the civiliza- tion of the Martians han ours. said the | ADVERTISEMENTS.

This statement set the ball fn motion and everybody had something to say. about the ability of the city to purchase the site and lease it to the crematory and appealed to City Attorney Johnson, who informed him that it would be a lawful procedure.

Councilman Schaffer was of the bellef that there would be no thoroughfare to the Adeline-street lot until assured that the Crocker people would provide one. The upshot of it all was that three com- mittees of investigation were appointed. City Engineer Turner was appointed a committee of one to investigate the con- dition of the land: Councilman Cadman, a committee of one to interview the Crocker people for the purpose of getting an option on the land and trying to in- duce them to sell a smaller lot; Council- men Wixson, Fitzgerald and Wallace, committee to ascertain if the crematory | people are agreeable to the site. There were no hostile demonstrations and the only excitement was caused by Cadman threatening to have expelled W. | E.
