In Sierra County, as elsewhere, the lacli
of water Interferes materially with min

in operation at the old Vandalia mine,
fifteen miles west of Placerville, and it

Concerning the oil market the Los An

usually large, and the result has been to
favorably affect prices. During the early
days of last week some lots of oil
changed hands at ( >f' cents a l>arr<--l In

and the close of the week saw It marked
up to ~*i cents a barrel. To-day it is
confidently expected that oil will open

$1 :t barrel asked on term contracts."

The newly opened Hlaekfeot reserva
tion In Montana promises to afford an
other mining rush of some proportions
with the usual story that belongs to min
ing rushes and their ends. A miner from
the new district reported us follows the
other day:
"We have got our location all right and
will stretch our canvas to-morrow. After

pared with 16,944,904 19 for the year which
ended June 80, 1897. The gain equals $V

WINE MEN ARE NOT
JOYFUL THESE DAYS
THE RUMORED PASSAGE OF THE
NEW TREATY REGRETTED.
It Will Prove a Hardship to This
State — Fruit Men Partiall/
Favored by the Move.
Information has been received from
Washington to the effect that the Gov
ernment has practically concluded nego
tiations with the Governments of Onr
muny nnd Italy and will si^n reciprocity
treaties with these nations on the same
lines. as'the one concluded with France
a COUple of weeks ago.
The Italian reciprocity will have no par
ticular effect on the California wine In
terests, as there is not a great deal of
Italian wine consumed In this country,
notwithstanding the fact that that Gov
ernment has for a number of years main
tained a commissioner In New York
whose duties were to use every possible
means to Dromote the introduction of
the wine products of Italy In the markets
'of the United States.
■ On the other hand California will feel
the go'-'d and bad effects of the German
treaty, its this reciprocal arrangement
t&kes away one of the stumbling blocks
from the California fruit men in a num
ber of ways. It will permit the wide in
troduction of the fruit products of the
State into German markets under the
clause of the most favored nation.
Tlie products to be feared from Ger
many are of the kir.it known as German
"sweets." Manufacturers there will be
enabled to produce sophisticated wines,
which are mostly composed of potato and
beet alcohol, and get them Into this mar
ket at less cost than the pure products of
California can be sold for.
The protest of the producers of sweet
wines in this State is based on the fact
that notwithstanding they art- allowed by
Die Government to fortify their sweet
spirits duty free, and that they make an
excellent quality of such wines, their in
dustry is struggling for existence. They
(eel that if they had had an opportunity
to place the facts before the proper com
mittee at Washington their products
would not have been Included in the re
ciprocal treaty with Germany at leas'.
Whether or not anything can be done to
modify the agreement for the benefit of
that branch of the industry remains to
I c seen.
The importance of sweet wine making
In this State can be realized by the state
ment that last year's production amount
ed t,, about tM";'>.t»oo gallons.
Charles Bundschu, a member of tho
firm of Gundlach & Co., and one of th-3
best posted wine men in this State in an
article written for the Merchants' Asso
ciation Review for this month Bays:
The- national policy of reciprocity as first
proclaimed by James O. Waine never contem
plated the uplifting of one Industry through
the destruction of another. The true Intent of
tho establishment of reciprocal relations with
foreign countries was to create a larger mar
ket for our products, without crushing- any of
our own struggling Industries. a reciprocity
treaty that would admit r>r.«ik-n goods bo low
as to close our factories, simply to find an In
creased market for American beef or pork,
would prove a suicidal policy.
Our Internal revenue tax amounts to $1 10 on
ever}" proof gallon of liquor r ntiiinlnft DO per
cent of alcohol; 24 per cent, therefore, pays
53 cents, while under the French reciprocity
treaty It Is now decreed that an Imported arti
cle at 24 per cent can reach the American con
sumer nt 35 cents, or IS cents per Rallon lesn
than the Internal revenue tax amounts to for
our own people. The absurdity of such a. con
cession to n. f orelcn country at a time when
war taxes are levied and Introduced on almost
any necessity of ordinary life 's simply beyond
conception.
RUSH FOR STAMPS.

There was a little slackening up yester

FIFTEEN WORLD'S
RECORDS BROKEN
Remarkable Performance of Cyclist
McDuffle in His Race With
Michael.
BOSTON, June 2.— A1l world's records
from one to fifteen miles inclusive took
a sudden drop at Charles River Park
this afternoon, when Eddie McDuffle
of Boston defeated Jimmy Michael, the
tiny cyclist who has long: held the title
of champion of the world.
It is possible the race might have had
a different ending but for an accident
which befell Michael early In the race
while in the lead. His handle bars be
came loose and he waa forced to leave
the track for another machine, which
proved to be in little better condition
than the first. McDuffle had rained a
full lap during the transfer and as
Michael could do nothing with his new
machine he left the track, coming on
again after the machine had been re
paired, but not In any sense a com
petitor. He rode in all six and two
thirds miles.
McDuffle continued to reel off the
miles during all this time, cutting
record after record, until at the end of
the fifteenth mile and the race he was
20 3-5 seconds better than the world's
reoord, held by himself.
The men took their positions and at
the word were off like a Mash. Michael
caught his team first and opened up a
gap of forty yards before McDuffle was
well started. The pace was terrific,
and at the end of the first mile the
watches recorded 1:4(5 2-5 against 1:48
3-5, the former world's record, made
by Elkes in his race with Martin a
week ago. The two miles were ridden
in 3:24 3-u, a gain of 4 3-5 on the pre
vious two mile record. Michael had
added two more records to his credit
when his machine went down and he
was out of the race.
McDuffie here took the lead and the
killing pace did not abate. He con
tinually urged his pacemakers on,
and every mile clipped a second or two
from the previous record. The bell an
nounced the last mile of the race, and
his pacemakers exerted themselves to
the utmost as they swung Into the
stretch on the last lap. McDuffle pulled
out for a spurt and headed the team
across the tape in 26:30 3-5.

Any one who
knows Amos
Burr will under
stand !n a mo
ment why a re
cital of hie many
good qualities in
a prefatory way
Is unnecessary—the name tells the tale.
Amos is always ready to wish another
man joy whenever pood fortune smiles
upon him, whether it be a boy or a raise
of salary. When he heard of Carleton C.
Crane's elevation to the position of Pa
cific Coast agent for the Warner Palace
Car Company he simply let the reins go
and made it his business to inform the
community about this new honor thrust
upon Crane. About 2 in the afternoon
Amos rushed into the Palace lobby, and
there discovered a new lot to astonish.
He did so, and in no hackneyed way. Ac
cording to Burr, the first block on Mont
gomery street was flowing with wine. The
popping and fizzing of the molten amber
liquid, with Kb fascinating effervescence,
could be heard for blocks. Ills only sur
prise, was that the group of men to whom
he was pair, ng this word picture had not
heard the noise attendnnt upon the open
ing of fo many small "bots." He advised
them all to rush over to Crane and as
s-ist in the consumption of the supply.
One of the men, with tendencies anything
but bibulous, thought he would like to
experience something of Crane's hospital
ity, bo he went at finee. Darting Into
Crane's office he shouted: "Hello, Crane.
T hear that you are giving away small
bottles on the strength of your new job.
Well, cough up; am I in It?"
SMALL BOTTLES
FOR
EVERYBODY.
"Of course," said Crane; "everybody
get 3 a small bottle. Do you want yours
now or wia you wait?*'
"I'll take mine now." said the young
man. determined to drink it if he had to.
"All right," Crane replied; "here it is."
nnd suiting the action to the word he
dug down In his pockets and fished up a
small bottle of ink. There will be no ink
bought on Montgomery street for some
time. That was the twentieth that Crane
had distributed. And now everybody is
asking who is the joker— Crane or Burr?

PROPOSED PAVING
OF MARKET STREET
MAYOR PHELAN OPPOSES IT
FOR SEVERAL REASONS.
He Considers It Would Be a Waste of
Money Unless Certain Car
Tracks Were Removed.
Mayor Phelan yesterday forwarded to
the Board of Supervisors a lengthy com
munication bearing on the paving of Mar
ket street, between Second an Fifth, with
bituminous rock. He is of the opinion
that unless the Market-street Railway
Company abandon and remove the rails
on which horsecars are now run it would
be futile- to pave the street. The commu
nication of the Mayor is as follows:
,. Thß ,. Honorable the Board of Supervisors of
me City and County of San Francisco— Gentle
men: On May 11, 1898, the board let a con
tract for the paving t Market street, from
second to Fifth, work to be begun within fif
teen days. The pavement was to consist of
nine lnchea of concrete and a surface of bitu
minous rock, which was to cover Market street
mm the curb line to a point two feet dis
tant from the outer rails of the Market-street
Kallway Company's tracks. When the contract
came to me for approval I endeavored by per
?? n *l negotiation wllh the railroad company,
the Merchants 1 Association co-operating, to
na\e the said company agree to abandon the
outside tracks, over which horse cars run. The
rdin-oad officials conceded that they could, first.
i abandon the outside trucks without prejudi
cially affecting their monopoly of the street;
second that the horse cars exclusively using
tv? < \B/\ 8 /t d outßlde tracks did not pay, and third,
that they would abandon the same in considera
tion of a franchise to usa overhead electricity
'>n Market street. This beint opposed, the
company refused to abandon its tracks, and
would not even consent to voluntarily pay the
part of the rua<lway chargeable to It by law.
viz., between its tracks and rails and for two
rc-et beyond the outer rails In the same man
ner as the balance of the street is paved.
Failing to set any agreement from the Mar
ket-etreet Railway Company 1 let the contract
become effective without my signature, desir
ing thereby to Indicate my disapproval of the
pavement of the street unless the unnecessary
outer tracks were removed and the whole pave
mentbetween thecable tracks and the curbdone
In a thorough and satisfactory manner. I am
satisfied that If the str.-t-t is paved as called
for by the contract now that It will look like
a patch upon our great thoroughfare, and that
it will wear as budly as the pavement on Fol
aom street, on account of the presence of the
outer tracks, which will afford teamsters a
groove in which to run In. Identically in the
same manner as is common on the narrower
streets, whereas If the outer tracks were re
moved and the wtreet paved to the cable tracks
a sufficiently large surface of roadway would
be made for teams to use, and, not being con
fined in a narrow space, they would travel over
the street in such a manner as would not be
destructive of the pavement, which would wear
evenly. Hence I conclude that unless the outer
rails of the Market-street Railway Company be
removed It would be futile to pave that street
with bituminous rock. You have extended the
time for the completion of the work under the
contract above mentioned to September 8 next.
If It is still the Intention of the board to pave
Market street with bituminous rock I would
respectfully recommend that you carefully con
sider the right of the Marki.t-street Railway to
maintain these objectionable tracks, and. If
satisfied that no such right exists, to order the
Superintendent of Streets to remove them as
a nuisance. A contract should ♦;n»n be lft
for the paving of the balance of the roadway.
I herewith submit an exposition of the law on
the subject, which I believe to be sound, and
which clearly Indicates that the Market-street
Railway Company Is to-day illegally maintain
ing Its outside tracks. In my Judgment the
paving of Market street with bituminous rock,
unless these tracks arc 1 removed, will be a
waste of money, and the only opportunity this
material will have to show its merits. If It poe-
Fessses any on such a busy thoroughfare, would
be by the uniform pavement of the entire sur
face, leaving but the double cable tracks In the
center of the street. Respectfully nubmltted
JAMES D. PHKLAN. Mayor.
Mayor Phelan forwarded with the com
munication several excerpts taken from
the laws bearing on the rights and priv
ileges of street railway companies.

ANGLO-SAXON— S. C. Watsonvllle,
Cal. The use of Anglo-Saxon as applied
to the personnel of the army and navy of
the T T nlted States Is not 'incorrect, ' for
"in Its widest sense It is used In relation

BRONZE— "Eureka." Mendocino Coun
ty. Cal. Bronze is apt to be affected by
a green rust. The hardness of and re
sistance of bronze to oxidation lit it ad
mirably for coins, and many ancient
bronze coins have come to us but little
deteriorated, though burled for ages In
damp soil or immersed in water. Bronze
does not rust in the sense that iron
rusts.
NEITHER MISS NOR MRS— O. S.,
Oakland, Cal. A woman who has ob
tained a divorce and has been allowed to
resume her maiden name has no right to
use either Miss or Mrs., because not be
ing a marriecl woman nor a widow she Is
rot entitled to the prefix Mrs., and not
being a maid cannot be called Miss. If
the woman's name before divorce was
Mrs. Jennie Brown and the court allows
her to resume her maiden name, which
was Smith, she becomes Jennie Smith.
PROPORTIONS OF THE FLAli— Mrs.
R. 8., City. A ten-foot American flag
should be five feet wide. The blue field
should be one-third the length of the flag
and cover the width of seven stripes. The
width of five feet should be divided Into
thirteen stripes of equal width. There Is
no rule for the size of the stars; that rests
with the fancy of tho maker. They must,
however, not be so large as to crowd the
forty-five, one against the other, nor
must they be too small so as to leave too
much space between. Any dealer in bunt-
Ing: will tell you how many yards of ma
terial you will require to make a ten-foot
flag.
A MATTER OF CONTRACT— J. 1...
City. If a man rents a house, the manner
In which he pays the rent Is a matter of

self and the owner or agent. If the un
derstanding Is that the rent shall be paid
In advance, the owner or agent would
have a right to commence an action in
ejectment in case the tenant did not pay
as he agreed to. A tenant cannot claim
that because he paid the first month's
rent in advance ttie contract being rent

ELECTION— "Eureka," Mendocino. Cal.
The name of a candidate and the office
for which he runs must be plainly set
forth on the ticket. The law of Califor
nia defines a ticket as "a paper upon
which is written or printed the names of
the persons he intends to vote for, with
a designation of the office to which each
person so named 1b intended by him to ac
chosen." If there should be an election
for three trustees and the law should de
clare that one shall hold for one year, an
other for two years and the third for
three years, the specified term should ap
pear opposite the name of the candidate
chosen for that term. If that were not so
it would be impossible to determine whi-ch
of the three candidates trie voter desired
should receive his vote for the iong or
the short term. A ballot that did not
contain the specified term could not le
gally be counted.
THE MERKIMAC-J. R., Nlcasio. Cal.

erty of T. Hogan & Sons, who operated
the Lone Star service, and in that ser
vice she ran between New York, Boston
and Galveston. Subsequently she was Se
cured by the I'nited States and assigned
to Sampson's blockading fleet.

RIGI RAILWAY-P. A., Martinez, Cal.
The Vitznau-Rigi-Kuhn Railway in
Switzerland is operated by what is known
as the rack and pinion system. In ma
chinery this is a straight or very slightly
curved metallic bar, with teeth on one
of its edges, adapted, to work into the
teeth of a wheel, pinion or endless screw,
for the purpose of converting a circular
into a rectilinear motion or vice versa.
The Rigi road was built in IS7I by Riggen
back, Naeff & Zschokke. The road is
three and three-quarter miles long, rising
3P37 feet, the gradient being at first 1 in
14.9. .<*fter getting clear of the town it
varies from 1 in 5.56 to as steep as 1 in
4, the average gradient being 1 in 1.45. The
curves are all of the radius of 590 M: feet.
i The central track into which the toothed
wheels of the locomotive or carriage gear
is formed of two channel irons, each 4%
Inches deep by 2% inches wide, the ver
tical web being one-half inch and the
flange two-fifths of an inch wide. The
speed of four miles an hour can be at
tained.
THE CONFEDERATE IRONCLAD
MERRIMAC RENAMED VIRGINIA—
I J. R., Nicasio. Cal. During the Civil War
the United States frigate Merrlmac was
at the Gosport navy-yard undergoing re^
pairs in April, 1861, when, it becoming ap
parent to the Federals that the place
could not be held, therefore it was aban
doned and set on fire, as was also the
Merrimac and other vessels, to destroy
them and prevent them from falling into
the hands of the Confederates. Subse-'
quently the vessel was rained, cut down
to the old berth deck, both ends for sev- •
enty feet ware covered over and when in !
fighting trim the decks were just awash:
On the midship section, 170 feet in length,
was built at an angle or 45 degrees a.'roof
of pitch pine and oak 24 inches thic-k;
extending from the water line to a'height
over the gun deck of 7 feet. Both ends
of the shields were rounded so that the
pivot guns could be used as bow or stern
ehafters or quartering. She was also-pro
vided with an iron prow 4 feet long for
ramming an enemy's ship. She . was
christened the Virginia and belonged to
no particular class, being a class pecul
iarly her own. After the fight with the
Monitor she was at anchor off Sewell
Point and the Confederates, fearing that
she would fall into the hands of the Fed
erals, destroyed her by blowing her up.
