Death ef She Brave Woman who Havigated
Cargo Worth q Million

Mrs. Nary Patton, widow of Capt. Patton, of
the old clipper ship NeptuDes Car, and at one
time famous for having navigated her hus-
bands ship from Cape Horn to San Francisco
died recently at her residence, Brooklyn. At
the time of her death, which WAS caused by
heart disease, Mrs. Patton was a years of AGE.
Mrs' Patton's famous voyage was made in
1856, when she was q woman Of so. She had
Capt. Patton, a young skipper Of 25, who had
been appointed to the command of the olipper
ship Neptunes Car, launched shortly before for
voyage round the world. After his marriage
the captain nesitated sbont undertaking the
voyage II 1t would compel bim to part from his
bride. The owners of the vessel therefore
gave MRS. Patton permission to ACCOMPANY her
husband, and year and q halPs circumnavi-
CATION OF the globe became her bridal tour.
Mrs. Patton was the daughter of q seAfarinp
man, and had inherited a love for blue water
She soon became proficient in the use of nauti-
cal Instruments, and the log of the Neptune's
Gar for the entire voyage was kept by her.
When the ship returned to New York her own
ers placed her in the then already important
California trade and, laden with q cargo valued
at. nearly 81, ,O0o, 900, she set sail again in Au-
gust, 1856 for San Francisco. Within q few
weeks out Capt Patton discovered that the frat
mate was endeavorinG to inoite tho crew to
mutiny, and ordered him put in irons The
second and third officers were both ill of fever
snn 30 the entire management of the ship de-
VolVed on the Captain himself. He had been ill
at starting and under the added strain was
soon confined to his cabin with congestion of
the brain: Before the ship had passed the
Falkland Islands he was unable to appear on
deck, and by the time Cape Horn was reached
he was raving mad. In this emergency his
wife assumed command of the vessel, aud,
aided by her previous studies of navigation
and the assistance of willing crew, she
brought the Neptune's Car safely into San
Francisco on November 13 1856, having nAvi-
gated the ship aud nursed her husband at one
and the same time.

referred to street and alley commit
tee. MI. Ross was added to this
committee and the committee empow-
cred to act on the case. The fine
now for building or moving a frame
house in the fire limits is $50. The
council thinks this is too trivial a
punishment and the city attorney was
ordered to draw up a new ordinance

Geo. Kabrich appeared and in be-
half of the citizens on the south side
of Jackson street asked to have the
street graded for a side walk and
stated that the citizens would put it
down.
The city attorney was ordered to
look into the records and see whether
the property of Mr.. Neal ON Monroe
street vas on Land belonging to the
city Or not.
Mr.. Kilgore was then introduced
and made some remarks about Kill
gore street through lots 4 and II,
through block z, Ladd's addition to
Mexico. Land was condemned for this
street, the damage was assessed by
the jury at $500.
j. III. SImons then appeared and
asked permission to use an unused
alley near his place Tor a lot not
granted.
Complaint was made by q. Craig
that several of III streets were fenc-
ed up, and upon investigation it was
found that some of III alleys were
used as gardens and some as hog
pens &c. The committee on streets
and alleys was orderd to investigate
this and notify persons to v~acate, now
and forever. Some of our citizens
fence up a lot and at the end OF ten
years claim it because the law will
let them. This is Oh the ton tine
plan.

No action taken on the alley back
of the Cromwell house. Without

Everybody invited!

VIM. Pollock has a scheme in his
mind by which water a be forced tc
all parts of the city to be used to ex-
tinguish fires and sprinkle the streets.
He would put a force pump in the
mill and run pipes up the main streets
having hose attachments at suitable
distances, and then at a fire alarm,
bring out your nose carts attach 1000
feet of hose, turn on steam and you
could do some good. Mr.. Pollock
knows and says tins plan is feasible
and it will cost the city but a trifle.
1t is worthy an investigation. The
way it is now, it cots Sl20 Il year
to keep the engine in repair &C., and
after all it is of no more use than Il
squirt gun.
