ATTRACTS 'SMALL BUYERS' First Block of Securities Will Be Offered to Citizens as Safe In vestment Mayor Will Buy Some, so Will Mr. Menefee. Mayor Simon and Councilmen Menefee and Ellis, after a conference yesterday afternoon, announced that the first issue of $050,000 Broadway bridge bonds will be made a popular loan. The paper will be issued in denominations of $500 and $1000 and will be offered to the general public, more generally referred to as "small buyers." Any person having: a few hundred dollars to Invest will have an opportunity to place it at interest of 4 per cent on 30-year paper. "I will buy some of those bonds my self," said Mayor Simon. "I will show my faith in the project in this manner, for I believe It is a good investment. I heartily approve of the suggestion of Councilmen Menefee and Bills that the first $250,000 ,of the issue be offered spe cially to small buyers. It will give any man an opporunity to take at least one $500 bond, and more if desired. Of course, they must be sold to the highest bidder. I hope that the people will take up this subject and see If we can dispose of all or at least a large portion of the first sale in this manner." V"I will buy some of the bonds myself," said Councilman Menefee, "and I know of a good many others who have small sums to invest who will buy the Broad way bridge bonds. 1 have no doubt as to the outcome of the litigation in the courts against the validity of the issue, fqf thre Circuit Court Judges, sitting en banc, have decided they are legal in every respect." The City Council has ordered the sale of the first block .of $250,000 to the highest bidders April 11 at the City Hall at 2 P. M. As a general rule, city bonds iave a ready sale, but among large speculators. Having a long life, it is expected tne Broadway bridge issue should prove an excellent seller. This is the first time the city has recommended and urged the purchase of its bonds by popular loan, but it is predicted by Mayor Simon and others who have been investigating the situation that this will prove a good move. While lawyers have filed various kinds of suits against the Broadway bridge project and while litigation, is still pend ing. Mayor Simon and the advocates of the span are losing no time in proceed ings to facilitate the work. The Mayor has repeatedly said he will see the project well advanced before the end of his term of office, and yesterday afternoon he announced he is greatly encouraged at the outlook. BRAVE ACT SAVES LIVES Hospital Engineer Pulls Fire When Condenser Pressure Mounts. But for the promptitude of Engineer Bunker, at the Good Samarital Hospital yesterday morning, numerous hospital, employes would have been injured, the ice-making machine destroyed and pos sibly the steam boiler blown up. In some way not at present under stood, the hospital water supply " was shut off yesterday. The first indica tion of this was given by an employe who happened to glance at the gauge on the ammonia condenser. He saw that in place of registering 120. pounds pressure 270 pounds was indicated. With a yell the man fled. As other employes comprehended the situation they crawled behind wood and coal piles. Bunker dashed for the steam boiler and raked at the firebars till he had completely drawn the fire and danger was averted. Engineers say .Bunker did this In danger of his life. Inquiry failed to elicit who bad turned off the water, the foreman of a water-main gang on Marshall street saying that his men had not touched the plugs. Ice experts say that the condenser could not possibly have lasted more than a few minutes under the Increased pressure and would have exploded. POPE, MUSIC-THRILLED, WELCOMES AMERICAN On Last Visit to Borne, Mme, Maud Powell Takes Sick Musician's Place at Mass and Benders Violin Solo in Such Manner as to Call Forth the Desire of Leo XIII for Audience. SOME years ago Mme. Maud Powell, who appears at the Bungalow Theater Monday night, made a tour through Italy, and after having seen the beautiful South she retraced her steps, returning to the Eternal City, where she spent several weeks. Her visit fell at a time when the Pope, Leo XIII, celebrated a special mass In St. Peters, taking from the ar chives the ancient music of Pergolesl. which had never been heard outsldo the sacred precincts of the Cathedral. Mme. Powell was fortunate in se curing permission, through the Ameri can Ambassador, to attend the service. Arriving an hour or so early, she was conducted through this church of churches, accompanied by her husband and the American Ambassador, and shown the wonders of the sacred edi fice, dwelling particularly on the beau ties of the music rooms and the choir. Suddenly there was confusion and hushed talking, and a man was carried out. Asking Information of the guide, it was found that the first violinist, who for years had played a certain solo in the Benedlctus, had been taken suddenly ill. Quick as a flash Mme. Powell of fered her services as a substitute. The mighty organ 'pealed forth, send ing 'sounds of beauty and grandeur reverberating through the great mas sive arches. The chorus lifted its clear voice and few bars later the sound of the solo violin was heard in the beau tiful solo, suggestive of the voice of an angel speaking from heaven to give sinful mankind solace, peace and love. Although Mme. Powell had never seen nor heard the music before, she played with such exquisite expression that a thrilled hush fell upon the listeners. After mass Mme. Powell received the silent, hut nevertheless genuine, thanks of the choir and especially of the good old choir-master, who, with tears in his eyes, confessed that he had never heard that solo as Mme. Powell had played it.. The Pope sent a message of thanks to his violinist, for the beau-I tiful solo which had moved him so deeply. Being told of the true circumstances by the choir-master, who was liberal enough to confess that a young Ameri can woman had generously offered to substitute for the regular violinist who had been suddenly indisposed. Where upon His Holiness sent a special invi tation bidding Mme. Powell to his pres ence. The following day Mme. Powell was ushed into the holy presence at the "Vatican, where she was honored with a conversation of long duration, so long indeed as to extend far beyond the time allotment of 15 minutes, even though lines of people were kept wait- ing in the ante-rooms. The delightful sequel of this memorable Interview was a beautiful Venetian glass goblet, which His Holiness instructed to be sent to Mme. Powell. FIRE MENACES HOSPITAL Small Blaze Discloses Rotten Hose and Frozen Hydrants. ' VICTORIA, B. C, March 4. (Special.) A serious condition of affairs at Nanai mo's general hospital was disclosed last week, when a chimney fire brought the fire brigade to the hospital, to find that all the hydrants were frozen tight, the standpipe hose was rotten, and there was no modern facilities for the safety of the patients. The blaze was extinguished with chemi cals, and now the NanaJmo authorities are showing that they appreciate the ob ject lesson on what might happen.

This Favored Land Has Many Advantages Over Many Other Districts Hm the earliest Springs d latest Vails. Has more nnahln than Ix Ancelea. California. Hm no kintns froat for asron months. Has the deepest and richest heavy lava ash soil. Has the best drainas-e. Has the smoothest surface. Has the greatest iwsa to hold uiulsUtre. Has mora Indnoemaats to make a permanent home. Has the most healthful climate. Has the best OaTored fruit. Has the bUit apples, with finest color nd tauter. Has the best constructed canals. Has the most reliable water supply. . Has the best marker and transportation. This beautiful and rich country is now attracting many people for its most wonderful productiveness. It grows crops immediately when water is- applied. Don 't speculate ; buy the very best for the least money and best terms. You will get. results from the start in this district ; because you can grow more boxes of apples, more tons of hay and alfalfa, more potatoes, more melons, more onions, more berries, more grapes, and ail gasden produce to the acre than usually is produced in our already famous districts. Everything is in readi ness to supply all the water necessary to produce the results. It is America 's greatest paradise. In order to have proper conception of this wonderful country it must be seen. It will astonish you if you give it an investigation. There is one reason only why these high olass lands can be sold at such low prices because its mammoth canal system of 40 miles was so easy to build and construct, not being near as expensive to put water on each acre of land as is the case in most all of the famous projects, hence every acre can.be sold at a great reduction, and this very land exceeds in quality, location and contour nearly all other projects ; so this is the key to the situa tion. It is your opportunity you should look this over before making a decision. We invite an investigation. For a copy of our new illus trated booklet, just oft the press, writ r call on AUGUST G.
