SAN FANCISCO, Nov. 21. The Southern Pacific company's steamer Solano, which has ferried thousands of trains every year since 1879 across the Carquinez straits between Port Costa and Benicia, California, and which has been known all of these years as the largest ferryboat in the world, is to lose its famous appellation. Its successor to the title will be the ferry steamer Contra Costa, now being constructed in the Oakland shipyards of the Southern Pacific. The building of the old Central Pacific railroad across the great west and the steamer Solano are today two of the favorite topics of the California pioneers. The Solano is not to be retired from service, however. Both the old and new boats will carry the trans continental trains across the narrow straits that separate Carquinez and San Pablo bays. The Contra Costa, while the gen eral dimensions" do not vary material ly from those of the Solano, will be slightly larger. ' , Built of Oregon Pine. It is being constructed of Oregon pine, and will be placed in service immediately upon its completion. The length over all will be 433 feet four inches, and the width 116 feet. Its tonnage will be 3800 tons. The most radical difference between this new steamer and the Solano will be the location of the engines. Instead of being propelled by one engine, located in the center of the boat, there will be two independent en gines, of 2500 horsepower each, lo cated below the main deck, one en gine for each paddle wheel. Steam will be supplid from eight dryback Scotch boilers. There will be four parallel tracks, 12-foot centers, on the Contra Costa. These tracks will be absolutely straight on the deck of the boat, there-being no deck houses in the center of the steamer to require a curve, as on the Solano. Its capacity will be 36 freight cars and two loco motives, or 24 passenger coaches and two locomotives. The present aprons and slips of both Benicia and Port Costa terminals will remain as they now are, the guard lines of the new steamer being identical with those of the Solano. The Contra Costa will be provided with a cafe and bar on the main deck, also a waiting room for local passengers. Eye Scalded. Mrs. Malinda Kimball, one of Oak- dale's most highly respected pioneers, was painfully scalded about the right eye and cheek last week by the steam from a teakettle spout, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. W. Robin son. She stooped over the kitchen range, and being somewhat near sighted, eame in contact with the va por, with serious results. She is re ported as improving. Walter Sears, who is assistant to A. T. Nunnelly, special sales manag er for the Eilers Music House in this district, left for Forest Grove Mon day afternoon on business connected with the company. He will return in a day or two to resume his work with Mr. Nunnelly.

It is believed that in that time the trout will be aWp to nronacate and mature suffi ciently to amply re stock the main river.
