Kenny, who was on the outside of the gymnasium, guarding the wires from an attack from the freshmen, saw the ts go out and began looking for the miscreants who had cut the wires. Near the Agricultural College he saw a | student dropping from a tree and called upon him to surrender, threatening at | the same e to shoot. The student | refused to b however, and, taking to his beels, ran in the direction of the li brary building. The watchman shouted to the fugitive once more to surrender, but receiving no response, drew his pistol and fired the shot. Even the bullet did not stop the runner, and in another minute he was out of sight. It was dis- covered afterward that the light wires were cut mear the picce where the student was first seen. In the meantime the shooting had ba frightencd the dancers in the ball- | room. The young women huddled up in one corner and some begged to be taken home. They were pacified, however, and ce went on with the aid of several ed candie lights that had been pro- 1 in case the “freshies” succeeded l ing the watchman and cutting wires The watchman thinks he knows the etudent at whom be fired the shot.

Switch Engineer T. H. Whistler and Yard Foreman M. K. Moch were adjudged guilty of gross carelessness and dismissed from the service of the Southern Pacific Railway to-day the result of an of- fictal inquiry into the cause of the col- lision last Thursday night between a loaded meat car.and engine and the Ala- meda local train at First and Peraita streets. The entire crew of the switch engine was held to be to blame, to some extent, for the accldent, and Fireman F. ‘Willlams, Yard Switchman George M. Stack and Joseph Lazelle only escaped summary dismissal by the fact that they held subordinate positions. It is deemed a marvel that some lives were not lost in the accident. A switch engine attached to a meat car ran into the rear end of the Alameda local, smash- ing several cars and causing a wreck. Lazelle was severely injured and was un- able to appear at the Investigation to- day. It was shown that the trainmen ran over the signals of thel block system and disregarded the danger sighals’ and that negligence is the only possible solu- tion of their act. The inquiry was conducted by Divi- slon Superintendent Palmer, who found that there had been an entire disobedience of the rules of the company. ——— e e Ericson to See Child.

It is without fear of successful contradiction that we make this state- ment. When you buy furs from us you deal direct with the manufacturer— and save onec profit. It isn't 1easonable to suppose that dealers who buy of the makers can sell for as little as the makers them- selves. Of course they can't. When a dealer goes to a maker he must pay the maker a profit; then, when Ire offers the furs to you he must ask a profit for himself. That fact is as plain as a full moon in a cloudless sky. We make all the furs we sell, and there is only one fair, reasonable profit between our customers and the actual cost of production—ours.
