England. after q passage Of twenty seven
days. She brought in with her . large.
white : painted figure . head. which the
Captain afirms to be unmistakably the
head OF the ili-starrsd training ship
Atlanta. One noticeable feature about
the fgurs.head Is the evidence OF great
violence, either by collision with Ice or
with q floating wreckags. The large

eating the application Of Q trsmsndous
shook to the bows Of the ship and the
lower part Of the figure Is broken and

says : The great Democratic dsmonstrs.
ton Of Wednesday night was the gen.
sral topic Of discussion among the poll
ticians yesterday. It was thought among
the Irving Hall adhsrents that Tamms-
py's failure to take part in the meeting
had greatly injured the wiswam among
the prominent Democrats who were in
attendance. 1t had shown these gentle.
men that Tamnany was not really In

becoming more and more IN association

Of local patronage. 1t 10 proposed by

The Fate OF the Jeanette.

SAN Francisco. July 30.-Yestsrday
afternoon the steamer Dora, belonging
to the Alaska Commercial Company, ar.
rived from the Arctic regions, making
the voyage from Ounalsska In twelve

north, and longitude 1875 degrees Al
minutes west, lost overheard Charles
Olsen, q native OF Norway, ~twenty-six
years OF age. Captain Hssin says that
the United States revenue cutter Thomas
Corvin returned to Ounalaska from the
9th Of July. She had been within l4O
miles OF Wrsngel's Land, and the
schooner Alaska and several other ves-
sells OF the whaling feet had been seen.
but Captain Hooper wal unable to com.
municats with any Of them. owing to
the large quantities Of Ice. The Corwin
coaled and sailed again for the Arctic on
the l1th OF July. The search for the
Jeanette had been unsuccessful, and
little hope OF ever seeing her or any OF
her crew IL now entertained, as the unu-
sual rIgor OF the past winter has far sur
passed the average severity Of that fro
zen cline.

MINING NOTES.
Matters OF Interest All Along the
Lode.

Il was this morning expected that the
connection between Union winzs No. l
and the $500 station OF the Sierra Ne.
vsda incline would be made before night.
When completed there will be doubtless
q strong flow OF hot and foul air through
It for u short time. During this flow
work will naturally cease in that part OF
the mine. but the Sierra Nevada man
asement expresses a determination TO
start at once the drift south and west
from the station to connect with that
advancing from the Union shaft. But
sixty feet are to be made to connect
these workings. This looks az though
even before next week Is over crosscut-
ting ON the $500 Of Union would be
going on.
The c. 4 c. shaft has reached the
240O level. The station will be opened
ten feet further down.
Sayags's bulkhsads are building rap
idly. That ON the 1900 works well and
the water is slowly rising. The water

Next week no may expect crosscutting
In Sierra Nevada. but everybody should
remember that these crosscuts may have
to run from 200 to 800 feet to get to the
ore veins lying next 10 the hanging wall.
It will not do to run these crosscuts on
paper nor by word Of mouth on G
street. When the bottom OF the Sierra
Nevada incline was reached, three feet
Of slums were found.

FIRE IN VIRGINIA.

Virginia had an incipisnt fire at $50
last night. It was at 196 South A street
and in the second house north OF the
the Hale & Norcross tank, owned and
occupied by VIM. Irwin. There was no
hydrant near, and the hose Of the de-

The FIRE had gained considerable head

The flames were started in . little cup.

usual place. and was burning.
When Mr.. Irwin found the rear Of his
house on Are he rushed to the front
part, closed all the doors between him
and the FIRE and commenced taking out
the things. In consequence OF this
movement the loss on furniture IL
slight.
When the fremsn got water on they
made short work with the fire-in TACT,

The entire damage occasioned did
not exceed $3.50. and no part OF this
was from water. Under the building Is

OAKLAND. CAL. July 30.-Dr. steb-

He said that Mrs. Schroeder, his daughter.
had confessed to him that she had been
guilty Of adultery with Lsfevre. He
said, his voice trsmulous with emotion:
I asked her in the presence OF her hus-
band how long this had been going on.
She said the first occasion was two
months before. I asked her and I asked
her husband II the dentist had . bill
against then for the work he had done.
I asked il they had paid him anything.
he said "No." I said to them: II
don't know what sort Of man
this is, but II you should confront
him with the outrage he might offer
you insolsncs and the bill for the
dentistry. Ipropose that Edward and !
20 to his ofhcs and demand the account"
We went to the Office aud an attendant
called Leievre out. I had never seen
him before. As he came out he mo-
toned to acoost me and moved his hand
to shake hands with me. / drew back,
resenting his approaches. and I spoke In
o commanding and imperative voice and
said: "Have you any account against
Mr.. Schroeder for deniistryf" He said:
"Yes." He was pale and trsmulous. I
said: present that account in items or
I will blow your brains out" That was

"Turn to your books. sir!" He quiv-

not answer. turned to Edward. and
said again to the Doctor : Write o
receipt in full for all work done to Mr..
Schroeder and for his family" Mr..
Schroeder took o billhsad aud made out
O receipt, and I directed him to sign 1t.
He signed It. I told him: "If you ever
meet me in the street. don't you dare to
look upon me. and don't You dare to
look ut Mr., Schroeder or bis wife again."
The witness then went on to describe
the mental agony Of Schroeder. how he
would weep and groan at the thought OF
his wifs's infdelity, how he had to be
taken into the country twice for fear he
would kill Lsfsvre. and how he once ct.
tempted 10 throw himself from the Oak
land boat.
This also occurred during the exami-

@. = Do you know whether Mr..
Schroeder had any suspicion OF his
vifs's having improper relations with
other parties before this trouble?
This was objected to, and after argu-

some strong epithsts, was abandoned.
A recess was taken ct this point.
Upon the resumption OF proceedings,
