Bpeclal to The Herald.
LONG BEACH. Feb. I.— ln the hands
of the public works committee of th«
city council Is a report submitted by
C . J. E. Taylor, street superintendent,
recommending the oiling of two hun
dred blocks of streets. This work would
cost $16,000, It Is estimated. Taylor
urges that the work be undertaken at
once In order that It may be completed
before the opening of the lummer sea

"It would cost thousands of dollars
to sprinkle the street! specified with
water during the summer," «aid the
street superintendent, "and tbe benefits
would be only temporary. To oil the
streets and sand them from curb to
curb would cost about $75 a block. Thin
work would be of lasting benefit. "
Mayor F. 11. Downs has suggested
that the rlty purchase its own teams
and wagons and do Uie work specified
without giving 'It out to contractors.

NOTES OF INTEREST
FROM LONG BEACH
Special to Tlir Herald.
LONG BEACH, Feb. I.— Albert de
Ruiz, an expert engineer, has accepted
a position in the office of City En- j
glneer Hervey Shaw and will take i
charge of the Vronman work.
Fred A. Warm, the new traffic man
ager of the Salt Lake railroad, visited
Long Beach for the first time today
in company with T. C. Peck, general
passenger agent, Superintendent T. B.
Cullen and Douglas White, editor of
The Arrowhead. They inspected the
railroad's trackage and of flees here and
at West Lonpf Beach,
j. p. Young, a German, said to he
a Los Angeles tailor, was found lying
on the outer wharf last night in an un
conscious condition resulting from the
use of cocaine. It was thought at first
that he had trlpd to commit suicide.
Recorder Hart scouted this idea this
afternoon and fined the Cerman ten
days' work on the municipal woodpile.
Patrolmen McMillan and McCord
have been transferred to day duty and
Patrolmen Austin and Harovor will
maintain the peace at night. McMillan
will resume the work of the license
collector which Harover has had In
charge.
The first services in the new Episco
pal chapel of St. Andrew's-by-the-Sea
will be held next Sunday.
City Engineer Shaw has practically
solved the problem of providing for
the draining of that part of the city
lying north of Anaheim road. The mat
ter has been a vexatious one. Along
California avenue and the Salt Lake
railroad track there ls a low place,
which will necessitate the building of a
storm drain. Otherwise the natural
slope of the land will permit of the
grading of the streets so aB to carry
off the water. The hlprhest point west
of the hill lies between American and
Atlantic avenues and It ls through
this that the engineer proposes to carry
a tile drain from California avenue.

OBJECT TO DOGS BURIED
IN CEMETERY BY FAMILY
Special to The Herald.
GREELEY, Colo., Feb. I.— "To the
Memory of Beauty and Spot," an in
scription on the fourth side of a neat
granite monument in the city cemetery,
the other three sides of which bear the
names of the wife, daughter and twin
babies of Thomas Wilson, a former
wealthy merchant of Greeley, was
noticed recently by a curious person,
who Insisted upon finding out who
"Beauty and Spot" were. He learned
not only that they were little Mexican
dogs that had been pets In the Wilson
family, but that they were burled In
the plot beside the family.
When this fact became generally
known there was protest from many
owners of lots, who object to having
dogs burled where their relatives are
lnterred and where they, themselves,
expect to be burled. Since the right of
a person to bury a dog in tin- ceme
tery Is not defined, It probably will be
necessary for those who are deter
mined to nave the dogs removed to

SHORTENS $5 AND $10 NOTES
Treasury Official Believes a Bank
Cashier Makes Six Bills Out
of Five
WASHINGTON. Feb. I.— The most
expert case of note shortening that has
ever come to the notice of the treasury
department officials is now puzzling the
United States treasurer.
Great quantities of $f> and $10 notes,
an Inch or so short of the regulation
size, have been coming into the treas
ury department for the last six weeks.
The treasury officials, in redeeming
them, deduct an amount relatively as
large as the part of the note that is
missing.
"I am convinced," said an offL'al in
the redemption division of the treasury
department, "that the person who is
working the game now has access to
large amounts of mnn*y. I suspect the
cashier of a bank or trust company or
rome such institution where big simis
are handled. I hold this opinion because
of the excellence of the 'shortening,'
and the perfect manner in which the
mutilated notes are made short.
"Briefly, the manner nf 'shortening'
is as follows: Five notes are secured
and are carefully cut Into varying
leiißths nnci are pasted together so as to
form six notes, all being shorter than
the regulation size."
SUPPORTS WIFE AND 15
FRANKLIN. Ky., Feb. I.— On wages
of 60 cents a day, Hob Jennett of
Franklin county is supporting a wife
and fifteen children.
Sheriff Bryan, who became acquaint
ed with the case in the course of his
official duties, said today in talking
ot" it;
"Jonnett Is a common laborer, with
no means of support but the work of
his hands, and being entirely unedu
cated, is never able to earn more than
60 cents por day.
"Besides an even dozen of children,
born one at a time, he is the father of
triplets, tWO girls and a boy. They
are blight-eyed, rosy-cheeked babies,
and It is worth a day's travel to sec
them."

to wait on them and with his blanks
before him and his pen poised expect
antly he asked:
"What Is the name, please?"
"Lowder," responded tho groom quiet
ly, leaning a little forward.
"What is the name please?" repeated
Mr. Gossett, raising his voice a llttlo
this time.
"Lowder," repeated the young man
wonderingly,
Mr. Gosßett took a long breath and
prepared for a final effort.
"What— is— the— name?" he almost
roared.

cant, surprise almost getting the best

and We want a marriage license."

"Lowder," replied the young woman
with a smile, and then as Mr. Gossetl
showed signs of collapse, she added,
"Beasie F. Lnwder of Chula, Mo., and
my age Is 20."
Mr. Gossett'S suspicions were aroused.
"Are you related?" he asked.
"Well," they said, glancing coyly at
each other, "we were once."
"Were once?" repeated the astonished
Mr. Gossett. "Well, if you were once
you must be now. What was it?"
"Well," said the young man, "If you
must know we were once husband and
wife. Then we had a foolish quarrel
about something and became divorced.
But we've got over it now, haven't we,
Bessie?"
Bessie said yes and Mr. Gossett final
ly pulled himself together and issued
