More Information About the Muc
Mooted Paving Contract.
The mayor'B veto of tho paving con
tract recently nwnrded by council
continues to be the absorbing topic of
Interest nmonc the nffalis of the city.
The probabilities are In favor of sus
taining the muyor's veto and re-ndver-tlBlng
for bids, but Lindsay & Coon's
nttorney will make a sttong Play for
a different course.
He claims there Is no neceltv for
such action, ns there Is nothing In the
law to preent councils letting the con
tract to the lowest bidders after they
have disposed of the chief cxecutle's
action. The salng of time Is tho prin
cipal argument In favor of Uila course.
Another Joint session will be ni
ranged for this week nnd councllmcn
will then be prepared to act In accord
nnce with the law.

PRESSURE OF THE SEA.
No.hing Can Exist in Many Locali
ties in the Ocean.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
There are snots In the ocean where
the water Is five miles deep. If It Is
true that the pressure of the water on
any body In the water is one pound to
tho squat e Inch for every two feet of
the depth anything at the bottom of
one of the "five-mllo holes" would have
a pressure about it of 13,200 feet to
every square Inch. Thero is nothing
of human manufacture thnt would re
sist such a picssure. That it exists
thero Is no doubt.
It Is known that the pressure on a
well-corked class bottle at tho depth
of three hundred feet Is so great that
tho water will force its way through tho
pores of the glass. It Is also said that
pieces of wood have been weighted nnd
sunk in tho sea to such a depth that
the tissues have become so condensed
that the wood has lost its buoyancy
arid would never tloat again. It could
not be iven made to burn when drjr.
A STRONG MAN.
Tho weekly coach wns duo at Soulh
City, nnd nil tho inhabitants were
eagerly awaiting Its urrlval. Tho Dig
gcrB' Arms was, as usual, crowded, nnd
against Its hospltnblo walls lounged
thoso unable to get in. Suddenly a
creak, loud and reverberating, sounded
in tho clear mountain air, nnd with
a whoop nnd a rattle tho great coach
lumbered up.
Tho driver, a cheery Yankee, who
knew his men as well as ho did his
horses, shouted: "Have you heard tho
news, boys? No! Well. I tell you
North City has Imported a parson!"
"A what!" shouted tho miners, Jeal
ous of their own town.
"A real live parson, and whnt's more,
they've turned the old saloon Into a
meeting house."
There wns a long stnndlng feud be
tween North nnd South City, which
dated from the fitst gold rush, and
many nnd useless wore tho buildings
that the rival towns had erected to "go
one better" than tho other.
All looked towatd Texas Joe, an old
nnd tough miner, who, by n brevity of
speech nnd a quick use of his gun.
had long held tho perilous position of
dictator to the neighborhood.
No ono spoke indeed, no one quite
cared to. At length the oracle, shift
ing his plug from ono cheek to tho
other, said: "Pass the word that
there'll be a meeting here of nil tho
boys at G shnrp. It ain't to be allowed
thnt a young shove-ahead village like
North City is to take the shine out of
us. No, sir It ain't likely."
Long befoio C the whole adult popu
lation was collected near tho saloon,
and It was clear that no room would
hold the crowd. Flnaly an open-air
meeting wns proposed and carried
motions moved by Texns Joe generally
were and the dictator took the "bar
rel." "Men of South City," he began, "you
nil know why this hero meeting Is
called. We hev been made fools of by
the people away yonder," waving his
hand northwatd, "and It ain't to be.
They hev been presumptuous enough
to get a parson, as If the Inhabitants
of these paits want either doctors or
parsons, nnd are cracking on about It
no end. Now, 1 nln't more religious
thnn most, still I say," kicking his heel
In the ban el to emphasize his words,
"that It's a real disgrace to us that wo
ain't got a parson, too. Now, what I
say is this: North City have got a
parson South City will have one, too.
They have got a traveling cuss we
v III hao a man of our own, a chap
wot's got some education. That'll fix
'em up, ou bet."
A red-hnlied Cornlshmnn, who hated
Joe, entured to say: "I ote we have
a good chapel man, he'll be a sight
cheaper, and will be more of our way
o' thinking."
'Now, Tieleaen, you dry up 'Pis-'
copuls I know ; Catholics I know: but
I know nothing nnd caio less about
fancy icllglons, nnd we'll have ono
ftom the bishop or we'll have none at
all" A chorus of appiovlng voices
showed that Joe had tho ear of the
meeting nnd the Comlshman sulkily
diew back.
Now, It carn't be done w Ithout mon
ey I ain't got much, still I'll give $20,"
said tho chairman. "I'll give five'"
"I'll give ten!" "Here, take my dust!"
"Here's for tho skyscraper!" were
heard on all sides, and amid the scene
of wild excitement Texas Joe, after
counting the collection on the barrel
head said: "'We'll hev the best there
Is to be got we've got $400." Ho
beamed on the crowd and saw genuine
satisfaction on every face In front of
him.
Then, with a queer smile on his face,
Treleavan pushed his way to the front
and said: "I call that a good start, and
now nil we've got to do Is to write to
'Frisco, for there's sure to be a boss
theie who will send us up the man we
want. I vote that the chairman write
and see to the whole job." A dead
pause followed this, for almost every
man knew that Joe could neither read
nor wilte. He rose slowly, with his pis
tol in his hand.
"Now, look here, mates, there's a
kind 'er nasty twang about the last
speaker's remarks that I don't like.
I ain't a pushing man, but, of course,
I'll write If Mr. Treleaven wants me to.
Say, do you know ?" he asked, looking
Intently at the Cornlshmnn as he did
so.
The crowd fell away on all sides,
for the air seemed a little heavy.
"No, Praps voung Green, the last
tenderfoot, had better write It; we
oughtn't put It all on you, Joe. No of
fense." he muttered.
"Ah!" said Joe, "Just as you like.
Now Green, get paper and a pen." The
crowd gathered ngaln. "Give the boy
room: now, just you write." With ad
miration the miners listened while Joe
dictated the following letter:
South City, Cal., V. S A.-Honored 81-:
North City hae got a chapel parson and
South City felt that the time has come to
hnvoti real college parson Hlng In the
town A weak man ain't no use. 'cua wo
want a strong man fit to run the show
pro,i M We send on four hundred dollais
for exes Yourr trul.
The Inhabitant!, of South View.
"Now , boys," said Joe, "It's my
shout."
South City was en fete The miners,
unusually clean, were waiting for the
arrival of the man who was to fairly
knock North City. Their hopes had
been talsed to a high pitch by the re
ceipt of a letter from San Francisco in
forming them that a real strong man
was coming up to put them In the way
they should go,
Joe had suggested a salvo of pistols
as a welcome, but It was felt that such
a reception was open to misconception,
and the subject dropped.
The empty saloon, which had been
taken as a temporary church, was as
clean as whitewash and soap could
make It, and only wanted the pres
ence ot the paison to make It com
plete. The excitement grew Intense as the
hour drew near when the coach was
due, culminating In n mighty cheer
when tho driver finally pulled up op
poslte the saloon. Several passengers
got down, but no one answering to the
description of a Httong man left the
coach.
Finally Texas Joe said to the dilver,
"rfay, Where's your new parson?"
"There, sitting on his trunk," le
plled tho man with a broad grin on his
face.
All eyes turned toward a young,
slender-looking man, who, with eyes
twinkling with amusement, was watch
ing his new congregation. Seeing that
something was expected of him, he
came forward and held out his hand.
"Men of South City," he began, In a
clear, musical voice, "I have been sent
up hero to act, If you will have me, as
your new parson. Something tells me
we are going to be good rlends, and
it won't be my fault If we arn't. There's
lots for me to learn from you, and per
haps I can do a little for you, too."
His face was so boyish, his hair so
curly and such an air of sincerity and
truth seemed to surround him that tho
miners, although deeply disappointed,
felt their hearts go out to him.
Ono sultry afternoon the pnrson of
South City was sitting In his room, a
prey to tho deepest depression. With
all tho eagerness that youth nnd zeal
could supply ho had done his best to
raise his people, nnd ho had failed,
nnd ho knew It. He saw his miners
nt first shamelessly and then openly,
stny away from his little church, and
his heart was sick within him. Ho
was wondering If It were worth while
staying on when his door was sudden
ly opened and a woman, disheveled
and wild-eyed, rushed in.
"Oh, parson, save my boy!" she
gasped and sank Into a chair, breath
less with her haste.
"Why, Mrs. Mace, what on earth Is
tho matter? Is your son 111?" ho asked
eagerly.
"No, sir, he nln't 111, but he's worse
nor that; tho men nre going to hang
him.
"What for? Surely he hasn't been
tried. Whnt has ho done?"
"Well, sir," walled the woman, "he's
got Into bad company Intely, and a
man accused him of horse stealing, and
and" looking fearfully around, "It's
true, sir."
Young and Inexperienced as he was In
tho ways of a frontier camp, the par
son knew that horse stealing was one
of tho deadly sins, and his face grew
pale as death,
"I'm afraid, Mrs. Mace, that It tho
men have decided to hang our son
no word of mine would stay them."
"And you, a minister, to say that to
me, a mother why, It's none tho less
murder, and you know It, Oh, sir!"
she pleaded, "there's yet time to catch
them up for God's sake, whose word
you preach, tiy and save my boy. Will
no one help a poor mother?" She wept
bitterly, while the parson, In Imagina
tion, felt himself defying the mob, and
also In Imagination saw tho ghastly
tragedy that would ensue on his inter
ference. "Come, Mrs. Mace, let us go and
hurry, and perhaps wo may do some
good." Seizing his lint, he ran from the
room and followed the ctowd of miners
whom he saw were making for some
trees about half a mile out of town.
When he finally caught up to them all
the grim preparations weio made for
the execution. The rope was nround
the shivering youth's neck. Six stal
wart men held the loose end ready at
a signal to lau nil tho criminal Into
eternity. With his boyish face flushed
with excitement tho parson pressed to
the front nnd stood side by side with
the man about to die. A silence fell on
the throng, broken by Texas Joe, who
said: "Now. parson, this ain't no place
for you. Judge Lynch has had his say,
and Jim Mace Is going to be hanged,
and that's so."
"And who nre you to take upon your
self to Judge nnd to execute? Don't
scowl at me and finger your gun. for
I in an unarmed man, and you know
It. Have not you enough blood on your
hands already without killing this boy
who has broken your laws? Give him
one mote chance, and you may be
glad yourself of it one day."
The berserker fury that occasionally
comes over men of quite meek disposi
tions was on the little man who stood
defying the whole mob. His look
seemed to daunt even the men who held
the rone, nnd It hung loose about
Mace's neck.
Joe saw his authority trembling In
the balance, and. with pistol raised,
said: "Clear him out of the way, boys,
or I'll shoot him where he stands."
"No vou won't, Joe," said the par
son, undauntedly. "You know that
would be murder, and they don't lovo
you too much, even here, to stand
that."
No one spoke for a moment: then
the Cornlshman, Theleavan, shouted
out: "A life for a life! If the parson
wants Mace to live, let him be hanged
Instead."
The mob shrank from this cold
blooded proposal, and, seizing the psy
chological moment, the parson slipped
the halter from Mace's neck, placed
It lound his own and said- "Go, my
lad, turn over a new leaf and leave
this town; go, and God bless you"'
The crowd opened and Mace stumbled
away, looking neither to the right nor
left, leaving his rescuer standing with
moving lips in his place.
Then Texas Joe said, with an odd
break in his voice for which he could
not account: "Say boys there ain't go
ing to be no funeral today, you bet!
Take off that necktie, paison, and I
calculate South City will have to do
without you In the futuie. Wo wrote
to 'Filsco for a strong parson, and
may the Almighty strike me dead If
you ain't a bit too strong for us. GIvo
us yer fist, parson, and" significantly
"good by "St. Paul's.
