WERE SEVEN HUNDRED HOLES Contractor Claims $2304 for Repairs Done���Can City Recover From Company Supplying Pipe? Great efforts wete made by the city councll last night to clear up the matter of the leaks In the city's water main and to place the blame on the right shoulders. The matter came up fer discussion ln reference ta a claim made by the Municipal Construction Company for $2384 for repairing the leaks in the pipe. The city engineer, the contractor and the chairman of the water committee an.l several others spoke on the matter, and the drift of the evidence seemed to point towards 111-fittlng collars being at the root of most of the trouble. No final decision was arrived at, however, but the company was asked to put its claim ln writing, when further Inquiry as to whether the claim is just, and as to whether the city could make a claim In Its turn on McDonald, the contractor, from whom the pipe was bought, would be In order. , City Engineer Blackman showed that the contract for this pipe had been let before he had been appointed DICKENS' SON DEAD IN NEW YORK Touring This Continent, After Vears In Australia, 8uccumbs to Indigestion. New York, Jan. 3.���A sudden attack of acute indigestion is the cause given today for the death of Alfred Tennyson Dickens, son of tbe celebrated novelist, whose body lies in the Hotel Astor, wberA he was stopping. Dickens was on a lecture tour of the United States. His home was in Melbourne, Aus tralia, and the funeral arrangements are being delayed until word is received today from his children there. tie was a widower. On the first of bis lecture tours he came to this continent last summer, landing at Boston on September 27. He rested there for ten days because of a slight indisposition and delivered his first lecture at Lowell, Mass., on October 19. Monday night he was on his way to a theatre here to lecture when he was taken ill. He was better yesterday morning and was preparing to go to Kingston, N. Y., to fill an engagement when he became ill again and died shortly after being rcmo>ed to his room from the hotel lobby. Dickens Centennial.

Alderman Bryson and Mayor Lee met at the formers meeting held at Sappeiton last nlgbt, with Mr. McGill ln the chair- Mr. Bryson Indulged ln some strong criticism of thu mayor's bebavlor during the last year, characterizing his regime as "autocratic" and his methods as thssu of the "star chamber."

I.i fact, to his present pofiltlon and he had j These will be saddened by the death | launche.l hc delivered a strong da- they all lne.v but little about it, ant to accept things as they stood. The pipe was ordered in 1909 from McDonald Bros., and in 1910 he let the contract for laying lt to the Municipal Construction Company. When the pipe was laid and the water turned on several hundred leaks broke out, mostly behind the collar, but only two In the caulking of the collar. Later on during the discussion Alderman Bryson stated that the collars used ln many cases were too large when they came over from Vancouver. "I can show some In Leopol.l's place," aald the chairman of the water com- mltt.e, "which are from one-eighth kto oiio-quarter inch too big ior the pipe. In such cases, he said, the pipe bad been beaten out to make them fit, and consequently the Slightest Jar would cause a leak. In ��n- wWi" Wb ' Mg' were condemned and sent back to Vancouvtr. 1 rtld not design the collar myself. I had to accept things as they stood. Tho leaks mostly occurred behind the collar." With regaid to the testing of the ilpe, he said, there was nothing about this tn the contract, but every Saturday they bad taken some, of Lie 1 Ue at random and tested it at double the working pressure with very satisfactory results. The representative of the company, in putting his case before tbe council, claimed tbat it waa the usual practice for all cities and municipalities to pay the contractor who laid the ripe for all repairs made by him, while tbey held the company supplying the pipe responsible for providing a watertight line. Out of the 700 odd leaks discovered in the case, ISO were caused by loose rivets, tor which he was not liable as tbe city inspector had these under hla supervision. In every case of a loose rivet leak there, was a leak from tbo seam also due to the same rivet With regard to tbe handling of tbe pipes, Mr. Blackman had objected to the way this was done by his teamsters at first, but this matter had been remedied. Wben asked about the collars, he said that Mr. Beaton of hia firm, who had the work in charge had told htm that in many cases the colU:s were too large and he had to drive in flattened wire before caulking to make a water-tight Joint. Further evidence was given by Mr. Lewis, who stated, that welded steel collars are not made to fit ex** actly. "Neither pipe nor collars are made true to a thirty-second of an inch. . An exact fit with a welded steel collar I consider an Impossibility." The-design for the collar he considered was a fair object of criticism. The caulking, he thought, would be preferable on the outside, but with 'this design it had to be done on the inside. The collar, however, was an ordinary commercial article, but "leakage is unavoidable if you use that design of collar." The design had been accepted by the council with the caulking Inside. TVs concluded the evidence heard,' and on the motion of Alderman Gray the company waa aaked to submit its claim in writing, Alderman Bryscn making It clear that this did not commit the council to paying the claim, as he wished to bave tbe matter thoroughly investigated. Alderman J. J. Johnston as president of the Agnes Street Ratepayers' Association, brought up two mattere connected with that street In answer to his request , that the ssto- elation be granted the use of the city council chamber when convenient for their meetings, permission was granted, it'waS alM vnted on bis too* tlon that a committee be appointed from the council to act with the as- roclatlon in Interviewing the B.

These, he maintained, bad been sold by the mayor at a lower price than could have been obi tinei for them, and the city had lost thousands of dollars by the deal.

And then we come to gravels of a yet later horizon and date, in which the implements discovered seem to show that the flint- workers had suddenly hit upon a ne*' shape and new skill in manufacture, 'lhese Implements ure found nut only in the later gravels (as Northfleet in Kent, and at Mildenhall ln Suffolk), but in the caves at Moustier in the Dordogne of France, ilrnce they are called "Moustierian" or oi tne Moas- tler type." They are smaller, about two und a half Inches to three inches long���very sharp at tbe point, and oa Uie sides, and made with a greatly- increased precision and skill by very few blows. One face was made by u single blow, by which tbe piece of flint was knocked off a larger block. They setm to nave Been atr.ick off rapidly, and to have required little further 'trimming." Tire older, mere beautifully and carefully chipped Acheulllian type still remained, but this new form was evidently a favorite. The men of the Neanderthal race, of which a few skulls and throe or foi.r skeletons have lately become known, used the Hint Implements of the Moustier type.

Working or thinking without system rnteeblex the mind and leaves the mental faculties In a clogged condition, so thut tbey do uot work sharply. Tbe mind must be kept clear and clean for the present problem, so tbat tt may seize and grasp with all Its might tbe thing lt Is attempting to accomplish. Tbere Is only one best way to learn bow to act. That way is tbe way of system. Systematize your thoughts, your energies, your abilities. Learn early lu life to do tbls. nnd It will prove the master bubit tbat wins success. Systemless men are always surprised tbat tbe beads of great enterprises can find so much time for social life, for bobbles, for travel. They cannot understand It at all. Tbey do not realize tbat a man of great organizing ability, wltb a splendid system, can do more effective business In a single bour ut his ofiice than n systemless man can accomplish In twelve. It Is not tbe number of hours, but tbe effectiveness of the system, that tells. One of tbe advantages of a college course Is tbat lt trains the mind to work by system. Whether he likes to or not. tbe student Is forced to con centrate bis mind wben tbe time comes, no matter what bis mood or how be feels. Four years of training in tbls should put tbe mind Into working order. It should tune tbe intellect so that all the strings will be In harmony. A good college education should train the mind to think concisely, deeply, effectively at will.��� Orison Swett Murden in Success Magazine.

The monkey's intelligence has never b?en nble to arrive at a point which enables that animal to achieve the untying of a knot. You may tie n monkey with a cord, fastened with the simplest form of common knot, and unless the beast can break the string or gnaw it in two he will never get loose. To untie the knot requires observation and reasoning power, and though a monkey, may possess both he has neither in a sufficient degree to enable him to overcome tb difficulty. A Withering Wind. The name "harmaUn" has been given to a wind which periodically blows from the interior of Africa toward the Atlantic during December. January and February. It is heralded by a fog or dry hase, which sometimes conc.sls the sun for whole weeks together. Every plant, every bit of grass and leaf in its course is withered as though it had been seared by heat from a furnace. Often within an hour after it begins to blow green grass is dry enough to burn.

Smearing ink on a piece of glass, Miss Hitchcock passed it over McNamara's fingers and thumbs on both hands, and while 1 kept him talking, she pressed down oc the paper and it was all over. Not until after the imprints had been token aid McNamara realize what it meant. As a matter of fact I a sufficient time elapsed before he I awoke to Its significance to enable us to get him to' Initial the Impresses.

Little by little scraps of the evidence we had secured were allowed to come to the ears of McNamara and his lawyers. Day by day ttie strength of the net became plainer and "plainer.

After Brlce and Schmidt had run the launch up to the powder factory at Giant, their hands were black with engine grease and oil. Upon every box of dynamite which they threw into that launch was left an "Impress of their fingers. On the sides of the launch as they -steadied themselves while crossing the bay were left more finger-prints���all clean-cut, clear Impressions. ���It was an easy matter to cut out the sections of the launch bearing these Impressions and bring them down to Los Angeles. And lt was almost as easy to Bprlnkle the specially prepared flnger print powder on the doors, the bureau, the gun-barrel up- kn Which McNamara had left his imprest to bring out the hidden flnger prints and to photograph them. Related for First Time. While a number of stories have been told about the flnger prints on the launch and the flnger prints got from James B. McNamara in the jail in Los Angeles last May, there are some facts regarding this evidence that are here related for the flrst time. ��� ��� That the impressions left on the walls of the launch ahd the fingerprints marie by McNamara in the Jail j against him, instead of their identify were identical proved beyond all | ing him. To lull him into a sense of doubt that McNamara and Brice were the same man; and although it was certain that McNamara bought and handled the dynamite it San Fian- clsco which was afterward found ln the unexploded Zeehandelaar bomb in Los Angeles, lt would not be proof that McNamara placed the bomb which blew up the Times building. A confederate might have placed it for him. But James B. McNamara himself furnished the incontrovertible security I made no move for several weeks. Then, one day In the latter part of October, after McNamara had lost all Interest ln the process of selecting the jury, after he had wearied of the interminable questions asked each talesman, the door of the courtroom opened and Into the room slipped the man who had so often played the "Traumere" for McNamara at the cafe in San Francisco.

City Sanitary Inspector Gives Satisfactory Account of Meat Markets ���Bake Shops Have Improved, Tbe sanitary inspector submitted his annual report to the council yesterday afternoon. The most important item was that concerning the outbreak of smallpox on April 6, 1911. Cases of this disease were reported from all over the city, numbering 30, but fortunately no deaths occurred. The Koyal Columbian Hospital was Quarantined in this connection from April 6 to May 21. Relief work was sadly hampered by the destruction on A:>rll 21 of the Isolation hospital by fire, and tents had to be erected to provide temporary accommodation. The meat markets had been regularly Inspected during the year and were reported In a good condition, several of them being "unsurpassed anywhere." Much improvement ha9 been made In the bake shops of the city, which were now regularly .inspected. The inspector reported considerable difficulty in enforcing the sanitary regulations in cases where persons are financially unable to make sewer connections. To remedy this defect lt was suggested that the council make loans to such [ertens to enable them to complete the vork, as it is believed is done In some other towns. The appointment of Mr. Walmsley to be assistant inspector W3$ said to have been very acceptable, and'he is reported to have done good work.

A question often raised in regard to the Alrican elephant Is whether these animals ever rest or not. At first blush lt would appear that there could only be one answer to tho question.
