A Great Mill,
ONE OF THE GREATEST IN THE y

ONE OF THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD
Though not located in the city, the Starr
Mills may be considered AS a city institution.
In future days Vallejo will be looked upon as
u suburb OF San Francisco. and even now all
the business Of this mill Is US much carried
on here as though It was located within the
corporate limits. The following description
OF 1t from letter which appeared some time
since In the Journal Of Commerce will give q
very good idea OF what Is carried on there's
"ln connection with direct export shipments
of Wheat and Flour, 1t will be most proper to
credit Vallejo with having as large Il not the
largest Flour mill On this continent, which
clMm embraces the world. This modest as.
sertion will no doubt excite surprise In the
minds Of many, nevertheless ] challenge a
showing equaling the following: From July
lst, 1876 to April LIST, 1877, two hundred and
seventy. -four days, less thirty nine Sundays,
leaves 2S5 working days-2S7si3 barrels OF
Flour were made and turned out Of the mill,
an average OF ,Ol2 barrels per each working
day. With ~ days subtracted for time lost
In repairs, etc, making the actual working
time ZIG days, the average Is over LOO bar.
rels per day, which places the Starr Mills of
Vallejo above the celebrated Washburne
Mills OF Minneapolis, Minnesota, by over one
hundred barrels per day, provided the Mime.
sofa rival really turned out what it claims to
have the ability, viz, 1900 barrels per day.
1t Is fact among those familiar with mills
that calculations based upon their full ca
pacity cannot be relied upon; contingencies
operate against turning out the amount at
which they are rated. The Starr Mills are
not exceptional; their largest days run dur.
ing the time named was ,475 barrels, while
their full capacity Is 500 barrels per day.
The mills, as with men, the results determine
rather than ratings We rest our case with
nine months run, averaging over 1000 bar
rels per day." The firm is composed Of A.
D. Starr, A. W. Starr and A. Bannster, and
they do business in San Francisco, Vallejo
and Liverpool-S. r. JOu,n II Of Commerce.

Outdoor Life.

There is plenty of gushing about ma
ture and summer beauties among Ameri-
cans. You can't call lady's attention to
tree or q bush without producing a
sharp explosion of adjectives and adverbs
overwhelmingly accented. But in spite of
all this tendency to fussy ecstacy, our
countrymen and countrywomen alike are
singularly destitute of quiet, unaffected,
genuine pleasure in the surrounding of
forest and meadow, lawn and garden.
They have none of the feeling which
prompts the genuine lover of nature to
want to sit down among the trees and
spend the day there, drinking in quiet
enjoyment at every pore, and not talking
much about it. When they visit the out
side world it is to admire it as specta-
Gle quite as they would theatrical show.
Or if they walk abroad it is to make a
formal, full dress call on nature; never to
"bring their work and spend the after.
noon." according TO the hearty rural form
of invitation.
We have much to learn of the German
people in this art Of making ourselves at
home in the outdoor summer world, and
getting huge drafts Of placid contentment
therefrom. In German house, wherever
the situation will admitof il, the out-duor

THE PROPER TINE FOR SLAUGHTER
melt has been discovered by French
chemist that the flesh Of animals which
are killed in the latter part Of the night
will keep much longer without sailing
than it will when they are killed in the
day time. This proves that the flesh is
better fitted for keeping when the life
and blood are taken from the animal ut
the time the temperature is the lowest
and respiration is the least active. Hence
the reason that the flesh from animals
that have been highly heated or hard
driven will scarcely keep at all.
II is NO new discovery that the meat of
an animal killed sitter rest will keep bet
ter than that killed Immediately after
exercise. As animals rest in the night.
the meat will, of course, lie better 10 the
morning.
The reason uhy the above facts are 50,

DocToRs' VIsITs.-It is not only for
the sick man, but the sick mans friends,
that the doctor comes. His presence is
often as good for them as for the patient,
and they long for him yet more eagerly.
How we have all watched for him. What
an emotion the thrill of his carriage
wheels in the street, and at length the
door, has made US feel. How We hang
upon his words, and what comfort we
get from smile or two, II we can >ouch-
safe that sunshine to tighten. Who
hasn't seen the mother prying into his
face, to know if there isn't hope for the
sick infant, that cannot speak, and that
lies yonder, its little frame battling with
fever9 All, how she looks into his eyes
What thanks if there is light there; what
grief and pain if he casts them down and
dare not say "hope." Or is it the house,
father that is strickcn2 The terrified
wife looks on, while the physician feels
his patients wrist, smothering her ag-
onies as the children have been called
upon to stay their plays and their talk.
Over the patient in the fever, the wife
expectant, the children unconscious, the
doctor stands as if he were fate, the dis
penser of life and death; he must let the
patient off this time, the woman prays SO
for his respite. One can fancy how aw-
full the responsibility must be to con.
scientious man; how cruel the feelings
that he has given the wrong remedy,
that it might have been possible to do
better; how harrassing the sympathy
with survivors, if the case il unfortunate
how great the delight Of the victory.

A Brave Rescue.

About twelve days ago an explosion
occurred 10 one of the Welsh coliieries,
and nine miners were imprisoned behind
column of coal 100 feet thick, which had
fallen with the first shock. There was
a mystery about their fate, but the warm
hearts of the South Wales GOLFERS de.
cided swiftly that if sturdy arms could
unravel that mystery ere too late, it
should be done. Work was begun and
willing hands were superabundant.. Night
and day the toll was unremitting, and 80
it went for week before the first ray of
hope was given to the toilers. AS the
time rolled On the interest grew, and
London held its breath in anxiety to
learn that the fate of the imprisoned or
entombed. At length, on Thursday, the
18th, sufficient progress had been made
to open communication with group of
the men--five in number; the other four
having wandered away to other parts of
the mine. Now came the awful moment.
Brave, tireless, ceaseless and sleepless,
the rescuers worked inch by inch to their
brethren in the living tomb, guided only
by their knockings from the gloom. A.
the rescuers worked onward the voices of
viz n1Vo Al NuC uut = COulu UC uCdTu SHY.
ing their Cymric hymns. Tears of JOY
welled down their faces black with coal
dust at the solemn sounds that told them
that God was Strengthening the hearts of
their comrades to endure till they could
he saved. At last a passage was made,
and one 10y one, weak, but still alive, the
five men were borne on brawny arms to
the light of day. Hundreds of thousands
all over the land wept with joy. In Lon
don the excitement knew no bounds. The
home secretary was questioned in the
House of Commons to know if the news
was authentic; the Queen telegraphed
down to Wales for confirmation;
crowds gathered about the newspaper
bulletins; the papers are full Of praise of
the bravery Of the rescuers, the details of
the rescue and the endurance of the men
who were saved. The Welsh bravery of
that week will he sung in the Eistedfodds
of the Cymri for ages.

behalf of the State by Mr.. Freelaud. OF
Pawnee county. and for the defendant by
S. n. Wood, J. G. Waters and D. N.
Frost. At one time much interest was
manifested in the case. but the tardy
working of the machinery Of the law has
induced forgetfulness of this pitiless
spiiling of innocent blood, and the result
of the trial provokes but little expression
of opinion. Notwithstanding the techni-
caliry that liberated the prisoner, there
still remains the naked fact that even
time cannot wash away-the cool, calm,
deliberate murder.
