A LARGE FUND RECOVERED.

The Catholic Church of California
has recently had decreed to it by Sir
Edward Thornton, acting as umpire
between it, represented by Bishops
Amat and Alemany on one side and
the Republic of Mexico on the other,
the sum of s904,7 70, known as
the "Pious Fund" This fund was
the gift Of various persons made a
hundred years ago for the purpose of
founding aud maintaining Roman
Catholic missionaries in California
for the conversion Of the heather.
In 1912, Santa Anna decreed that the
fund should be incorporated into the
National Treasury, the Government
guaranteeing that interest ON it at the
rate Of six per cent per annum should
be paid to the missions. This obi
CATION has not been met, and the two
Bishops, claiming to be the repre-
sentatives of the former trustees, have
made the demand against Mexico for
the original sam and interest up to
the date Of the acquisition of Califor-
MIA by the United States. This has
been in controversy for many years,
and was recently argued before Sir
Edward Thornton, the British Min
lister at Washington, who acted as
umpire, and has been decided in favor
of the church, as stated, allowing
1904, 200 10 in Mexican gold dollars,
but without the interest. Ex-senator
Casserly argued the case for the
Catholic Church.

ALLOWANCES OF ROYALTY.

According to a statement by the
New York journal Of Commerce,
the civil list of the Queen consists of
a fixed Parliamentary grant, and is
less than the income of former Brit
ish Sovereigns. The annual allow
ance is e3S5, 900, or nearly $4,000, 600
Her private income is not exactly
known. The Duchy of Lancaster
yielded in 1878 the sum of e6i $50,
or a net of 100000 after paying
salaries, law charges, taxes, chari-
ties, &C., connected with managing
the estate. She has also large accu-
mutations OF interest. The Prince of
Wales has an annuity of $40. 0GO,
and the income of the Duchy of
Cornwall amounting in 1878 to e92,
543 gross, or e62.5l4 paid over to his
use. The Princess has settled upon
her 10000 per annum, to be in
creased to $50, 900 in case of widow
hood. The other members of the
royal family are allowed from the
Consolidated fund as follows: Duke
of Edinburgh, e25 900 per annum;
Duke of Connaught, Els, 600: Prince
Leopold, $4,000; Princess Frederick
Wilhelm of Prussia, $4,000; Prin-
cess Ludwig of Hesse, $4,000; Prin-
cess Christian OF Schleswig- II olstein,
$4,000; Princess Louise (Marchion-
ess of Lorne), f6, 900; Duchess of
Cambridge, $4,000; Grand Duchess
of Mecklenburg Strelitz, $4,000;
Princess Teck formerly Princess
Mary of Cambridge, $4,000; Duke
George of Cambridge, fl2, 900. The
total of these charges against the
last named fund is $4,000 per an
mum.

Foreign journals describe pro-
cess used by the japanese in the
production of metal leaf used for
decorative purposes. Thirty or
forty thin plates of gold, silver,
copper and various alloys are laid
the one over the other in given
order and soldered together at the
edges, so that stout plate of metal
is formed of the whole. Punches
Of various shapes-conical, pyra-
midal, and with triangular, square
or pentagonal sides-are now used
to make pattern of perforated
figures which exhibit on their inner
sides concentric circles, triangles
and other forms corresponding to
the punches used. The plate so
prepared is hammered and rolled
until it becomes very thin, the holes
disappear and the figures have
spread out. preserving, however,
their parallelism. A number Of
broken, straight and curved lines
are thus produced, which, as in a
Damascus blade, are free of each
other, though consistent in them
selves in the same metal, their effect
being further enriched by the use
of acids to modify the colors. 1t
will be easily understood that thin
plates prepared in this way, having
an extremely flexible nature. adj
hitting relief, with stamped or en-
graved designs. capable of receiv-
ing the most varied colors and
forms, will have many uses in
decorative art.

BUSINESS FOR UNCLE SAM.

Ifone can believe the reports Of
the "Federal Grand jury" now in
session to investigate the border
troubles between Texas and Mexico,
there exists a state of affairs on that
distant frontier which loudly calls
for the armed interference of the
government. The jury report that
from Brownsville to Pecosyve, dis
lance of six hundred miles in length
and a hundred and fifty in width, to
the Nueces, American ranchers have
been ordered to leave their homes
by Mexican raiders on pain of death;
and that one hundred thousand head
OF stolen cattle are driven to Mexico
annually by Mexican marauders. A
number of Federal officers have
been assassinated, Post Offices burn
ed, Custom houses robbed, mail car
riers and Inspectors of Customs
killed while in the discharge of their
duties, and the perpetrators of these
crimes have gone UNPUBLISHED. Gen
eral insecurity prevails all along the
border. Ii seems 10 US tina; the ad-
ministration cannot refuse TO inter
fere in behalf of the Texans, and
either obtain a redress of the wrongs
inflicted by a demand for restitution
in dollars or blood from the Greaser

invading army would be quite easily
raised, and. if desired, not only these
grievances adjusted, but an acquisi-

With a warlike Presi-

full compensation be offered by
Mexico, il should so be ordered.

FIRST STEAMSHIP TO CROSS
TIE ATLANTIC.

In the ANSWERS 70 correspon tents"
Of the Cincinnati Times" we find
the following interesting informant n,
which will furnish tonic to the
numerous old shcll-backs' in this
vicinity:
The first steamship to cross the
Atlantic was the Savannah, from Sa-
varnah, Georgia, which started on
Nav %, 1919, and arrived at LIVER
pOoi On June -. The paddles were
removable. Her engines were only
used eighteen DAYS. When the Sa-
yannsh entered the channel. off the
coast Of ireland, the smoke from her
fuanel brought down upon her a gun
brig, detached from the channel
squadron, under the impression that
she was a ship on fire. The Savannah
was a fuil-rigged ship, and although
she advertised her sailing and for
passengers, no one was brave enough
to ship aboard of her. The next was
the Royal William, which sailed
from Quebec on August IS, 1888,
and after two or three days detention
at Pictou, Nova Scotia, arrived at
Graveseud on September IL, thus
making the trip in about the same
time as that taken by the first Cunard
boats to Boston. The ROYAL William
was built at Three Rivers, and fitted
at the St Mary's Foundry, Montreal,
with engines made in England. In
the register at Lloyd's for September
-, 1898, may be found the entry,
under Gravesend. announcing the ar
rival on the preceding day of the
steamship Royal William, McDougal,
Quebec. The Great Western and
Sirius, forming new era in naviga-
ton, and commencing a new and ex-
peditious mode of intercourse be-
tween England and the United States,
arrived on April 90, 1888. AS the
Savannah was not a steamship, but
merely a sailing vessel with tempo
rary arrangement for steamiDg on
board, to the Canadian Royal William
must be accorded the honor of being
the pioneer Of the present large At
lantic steam feet. What became Of
this vessel subsequently we cannot
positively state, but have the impress
sion that she was sold to the Portu-
guese Government.

BoNEs.-The bones Of poor Gui-
bord. which have caused so much
trouble In Montreal, are now prob
ably at rest, as yesterdays kilograms
reported them on the way to the
cemetery, escorted by q numerous
and heavily armed force Of police
and citizens. Let us hope that they
may rest in peace, and no more
affiict the people with their rafting
through the press and dispatches.

in every closet" but a little too
much to have one strung along the
telegraph wires every day OF the

RECoScILED. - 4 good many
funeral professions pass along our
streets daily. In former times We
were wont to be sorry when we
knew a neighbor had folded his
tired hands and sunk into his last
sleep. We have outgrown that SEN
sa.ion OF late. We are satisfied that
any one making the last emigration
from here at this time will be well
adapted to appreciate the soft de-
lights OF Paradise and if by any
which is not likely-any
Virginia ghost should take the
other road. hell itself would bring
him no surprises. - Enterprise of
yesterday morning.
We can well imagine after the
d" breath of hell" which consumed
the best part OF Virginia, followed
by the rain and snow, the sleet and
ice, that quarter section, or even
six square feet of hell, would be
one of the most desirable objects,
and the heat and sulphur generally
supposed to exist there, would form
no objection. But let us hope the
belief entertained by some. that the
worse punishment ever experienced
is that of earth, is true, and the
weary sufferer who now closes his
heavy eyelids in everlasting sleep,
will be ushered into region W here
zephyrs are soft and fragrant laden;
where the sharp clang of the fire
alarm is never heard, but through
all eternity is soothed by the melody
of heavenly bells.

FROM CARSON.


FRIEND KENYON:
Things in this village get mixed
at times, as you well know has been
the case in other well regulated CON-
muniues. The latest mixture | have
just learned mixture No. II took
place while ago, so two or three
feminines report. in which a high
public functionary and a female
mental shootist were the actors.
Whether the Governor will con-
slider the matter of sufficient i'm
portance to call another investigating
committee, your travelling CORE
spondent has not as yet learned.
Mixture No. ? didn't eventuate as
happily as the gar and festive Adonis
hoped it would and the vis-a-vis
being young, bowed" the whole
thing. Don't want to 60 a riding
again. she says.
The Mint seems to be worked to
its utmost, judging by the busy
number l saw in the building upon
my visiting it a day or so since-a
visit of pleasure and instruction
The worthy Superintendent and his
executive officers are evidently Eau
faut" in the management of their
respective departments. Some little
commotion was caused, day or two
since, by the reception Of orders
from WASN'T gton. 7 ducing the pay
of the lady adiusters to $50 per
month, thereby saving to the Govern
ment the sum Of s. per diem. 1t is
generally thought the other en-
ployes' wages will be reduced in the
same proportion. Owing 10 the
great fire at Virginia, the usual sup
ply of bullion for Mint purposes was
supposed TO have been cut off. and a
shutting down of the Mint was GER
tainly 10 follow. Upon the heels of
the fire orders came from headquar-
tiers that if sufficient quantity of
bullion could not be obtained for
treatment. the working force of the
institution must be reduced. and only
employees enough retained 10 work
such bullion as could be obtained.n
All fears for the present Of that
character have been dispelleG, how
ever, for l am informed the Superin-
tendent had contracted with the man
ayers Of the Consolidated Virginia
mine for a monthly delivery of
$4,000 ounces bullion, contract to
continue for six months, and that the
said bullion should ali be returned in
coll, which is to be applied to the
payment Of current expenses of the
company at Virginia.
The States Prison investigation of
accounts and doiDgs of Warden Hy-
man promises to be a lengthy affair.
Nothing Of startling importance has
been discovered as yet duplicating in
any manner the Warden, either in
peculation or laxity Of duty.
In every community, you know,
there may be found those who are
dissatisfied with the local govern
ment. Such Is the case here; and
there is pending before one Of our
courts the question Of disincorporat-
ing. The reasons urged are unwar-
rantable assumption Of power ipass
ing an ordinance combining houses Of
ill-fame to single block, and an
inclination t. Cypress the citizens,
particularly the trading portion cf
the community. with onerous license
taxes l hardly think, however, the
suit will be successful.
You will next hear from NE at
