SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. LANDER, Wyo. June 13.—H. A. Heath of this place has invented a fly- ing machine which flies and with which he expects to revolutionize transporta- tion methods.

Since then his worry has increased a hundred fold. Unable to land anywhere, he has had no opportunity of communicating eith- er with his relatives or friends in the stricken city. O'Brien is 22 years old, clean cut in appearance and talks like a man of re- finement.

SACRAMENTO, June 13.—California has done its duty toward itself and San Franciseco has been given those things that are hers. Convened in extraordi- nary session the Legislature, realizing that mighty nature had aimed a blow at the very heart of the State, deter- mired that so far as rested within the power of the makers of the law the metropolis should rise anew, imperial and eternal. How 'well the members of this Legislature have succeeded in their splendid purpose the people know, and with Governor Pardee they will ex- claim: “Your labors so well performed will result in great good, not only di- rectly to the cities and communities that suffered under the great catas- trophe, but indirectly to the whole State.” The Legislature that has just con- cluded its extraordinary iabors will go down in history as having grappled with the material problems of the world's greatest disaster. No white- togaed lawmakers of the dead ages that witnessed the destruction of Pom- eii or Rome were s0 heavily burdened and none performed their work so well. This Legislature will live to fame through all the years to come and its laws will be written in the statutes of nations that in the future centuries will bend beneath the woe of calamity yet | hidden in the pent-up fury of the ele- ments. Great things have been done for San Francisco by California through its general court—the Legislature—and San Francisco, through its representa- tives, has extended its thanks. Many things this Legislature has done will never be appreciated by agy but the minds of lawyers, though these things will have great and good effect upon the economic condition of not only the metropolis but the State in its entirety. However, the Legislature has done many things that can and will be ap- preciated by all—material things that will ald in giving employment to the unemployed; that will make the de- pendent independent and b ld a re- newal of confidence throughout the ncial world. nn’;he voting of half a million dollars for a State building in San Francisce stands pre-eminently as the most reas- suring act of the Senate and Assembly. With this great sum available many hands will soon be employed and out of the ashes of the fallen city will rise a structure that will stand for centuries as the confldence of the commenwealth in the future of its mother city. Thou- | sands of dollars have also been appro- front-of the port. Nearly half aemil- lion dollars has been voted for the pay- ment of the citizen soldiers that stood guard amid the ruins and protected the helpless against those that would de- spoil them—a material evidence of the sincerity of the tribute paid the troops| in well worded resolution. Provision for the amendment of the constitution to enable the widening of the streets of San Francisco at reason- able cost also takes its place among the great achievements of the Legislature, though no one of the half a hundred and more bills enacted is less worthy of commendation. General laws that will operate kindly in the interest of all sections were enacted; education re- ceived unselfish support and the cause | of commerce has been hedged in by | supporting enactments. No branch of | all the stricken branches of society, trade or government was neglected, and it is with pride that Sacramento will hold the memory that so much for all the people has been accomplished with- in her walla. by —_— MRS. CONGER SELLS A RUG AT A PROFIT OF 36910 | 5 Purchase Made in China Despite Hus- band’s Protest Nets Fund for a Californin Home. DES MOINES, Iowa, June 13.—The story of how Mrs. E. H.

NEW YORK. June 13.—Chauncey M. | Depew has been taken in hanad by “Bil- 1y” Muldoon, who is trying to make & new man out of the United Stites Sena- tor on the Muldoon farm up at White Plains. Senator Depew is leading the most simple life that has been his por- tion since he was a barefooted boy im Peekskill, N. Y. There is a good deal of strenuosity mixed in with the sim- plicity. Senator Depew was made to know when he got to the farm that Muldoon was the “boss” and that a millionaite Senator was no better in the sight of the big wrestler and renovator of worm out bodies than anybody else. A valet and a handy man, who composed the Depew entourage, were told to hastem away. “But he can’t undress himself,” prow tested the valet, aghast. “Well, we can teach him to do thaty too,” placidly retorted Muldoon. Since he went to White Plains the Senator has been living by the clock and Muldoon has sent him to bed at & o'clock, whether he wanted to go or not. and routed him out promptly at & He has put him on a horse and made him ride at a trot, given him ice cold showers and mercilessly put him through a course of stunts with dumb- bells, weights and a medicine ball.
