Among the Chinese laborers at
work in the pierson levee district,
in Sacramento county, says the Bee,
is one squad of newly arrived eel
estials. numbering 80, not one of
whom can speak word Of English.
The Chinaman who employs them
is authority for the assertion that
they landed in San Francisco but a
few weeks ago. When questioned
by a white acquaintance how the
law was eva.led in their case, he
freely explained that it was by resi-
dents applying at the Custom
House, obtaining certificates, and
at once delivering them to broker,
remaining here and allowing to send
or take the documents to China,
and there sell them for 500 each to
other Cinnamon who could use
them at the exchange Office in Chi
ma. This brokerage business was
made easy from the fact that appli
cants can obtain certificates at the
San Francisco Custom House days
before vessel Is to sail, instead OF
on the ship the day she leaves. The
law providing ior the examination
to be made on the ship only and up
on the day OF her departure, but 1t
is no, complied with, because il IS
impossible TO examine and issue Ger
tiicales to hundreds Of celestlals in

Of clerks and interpreters are en-
ployed, and where the passengers
are arriving up to the minute OF

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 10.

SAN Francisco, Oct. 10.
Nevada politics are made almost
as interesting to people in this city
as those Of our own State. The
coming contest for Senatorial hon
ors Is favorite subject in certain
quarters. / have listened to consid
crab,e of the talk and heard the
opinions of men well posted, and
and could give you columns Of gos-
sip. The opinion is growing here
that Senator Fir, while he has a
very strong desire to he returned TO
the United States Senate, is bccom-
ing discouraged as he sees the op-
position he is certain to meet in
Nevada. l doubt if there are half a
dozen men in Nevada who favor
him Tor his .own sake. Not lead
ing politician of his own party wants
him, and he will have to pour out
money to buy enough Republicans
TO secure sure majority. He will
have no following anywhere. except
as he secures it with coin, and there
is an open conspiracy in full force
everywhere in the State to make
him come right down and bleed
plentifully. The party feels that he
has not toted fairly at all The offic-
es have not been handled for the
benefit Of his party. He has sighted
those who befriended him, and neg
lccted the State that made him
great. He has used the Government
patronage for his own selfish pur-
poses, and in the last election per.
mitted the party and its candidates
to drift to certain defeat without
even making the pretense of assist
ing them. II MIR. Fair thinks these
things are not remembered, let him
play the mouse in the wall and he
will soon learn differently.
The fact that he hopes to be in
the field has already drawn down
upon him the teaches, who give him
constant opportunity to bleed, and
one Of his chief studies is to stand
of the army without antagonizing
any Of them. He already begins to
see where he stands and is getting
discouraged. He had Mackey with
him before, and Sharon neutral.
This time 10th are after his SCALP
and will light him He cannot play
the part of patron of his party as he
did before. He must play the par,
of supplIant, and must come on his
hands and knees, laying a liberal
Offering on the alter.
But il you think Senator Fair is
not an ambitious man you are mis-
taken. l am told that If he draws
out of the fight in Nevada next
year, he is very likely to be a candi-
date for United States Senator from
California, as the successor of Sena-
tor John F. Miller. Why, the man
actually expected to be Cleveland's
Secretary OF the Treasury, and never
ceased to cater to him until after
the Cabinet was made up. There is
no end to his ambition, and 1t only
needs occasion to show itself. He is
a keener man than most people i'm

James H. Kinkead has invented
what looks like a valuable improve
ment in quartz mills. BY the use
of a double cam the stamps are
made to drop 200 or 800 times per
minute, by which increased power
is added to the force of the blow.
The inventor claims that a three
hundred pound stamp will do as
much work as the elght-hundred
stamp now in general use, at much
less cost.

The Giants OF Those Days.

In Pliny's time 1t was customay to
describe the warriors of a few genera
tions before as giants. Alexander the
Great very well understood the strength
ening effect of a little substantial evil
dence on such descriptions. On one
of his expeditions he caused tomb to
be constructed and and placed in 1t
arms and armor of an enormous size,
and marked the same with his name.
1t has been suggested that this clever
fraud was practiced by William the
ConquerOr, whose supposed tomb was
opened in the sixteenth century and
found to contain the bones of an .un-
commonly large person. The attempt
made to destroy dear belief. however
received a severe blow bya discovery
made in Rouen in 1909. On the au-
thority of LIE Cat stone tomb was un-
covered in which was copper plate
bearing the inscription. ''Here lies the
noble and puissant lord the Chevalier
Ricon de Vallemont and his bones"
The skull of Ricon held a bushel of
of corn, ana his skeleton indicated that
when clothed in flesh the chevalier
stood nineteen feet in his stockings. As
unsetting TO a serene mind as his ap-
pearance may have been on dark
night, he was quite pigmy beside
Thentobechus, king Of the Teutons,
who lowered up twenty-five feet. LIE
Cat says his monster bones were found
January IL, 1913. mentioning the date
particularly. The skeleton of another
monster thirty feet long was found at
Mazaeno, Sicily, In 1916. and still an
other at Palermo in 154S, which meas
ured the same, The appearance In the
flesh of these creatures had better be
left to the imagination.
As if determined to show that his
country was eminent as a producer of
the skeletons Of giants, an Italian of
the fifteenth or sixteenth centuary re-
lates the finding of a skeleton 300 feet
high! 1t was Immediately announced
to be the skeleton of the giant Polyphe-
mus, and treated with various ceremo-
MES by the awe-strlcken discoverers
and the people of the country. The
bones, the author naively observes, diff
fered somewhat from those of the ordi-
nary human frame, but that was to be
expected in man so tall.
The evident compounding of prehis-
toric animal relics with human remains
was one of the many cases. The sto.
ries of human skeletons of 100 TO 200
and even 500 feet high, which began
with the Polyphemus incident, belong
to the same category of mistakes There
is, however, good ground for supposing
that Farragus the tyrant, slain by Or
lando, nephew Of Charlemagne. was a
huge man, eighteen feet high. Bucart
of Vlvans, whose bones were found OF
the banks Of the Morderi river, in the
mountains of Crussol, ON grave author
ity was stated to be twenty-five feet
six inches. Richard, celebrated ana
tomist, saw in the suburbs of st. Ger
main in 1914 the skeleton of a man
twenty feet tall.

The 1eletOponeter.-An ingenious IN
strument for ascertaining the distances
of accessible and inaccessible points
from the observer and from each other
has been invented by DR.. Luigi Cere-
botani, a professor of the University of
Verona The apparatus consists main
ly of pair of telescopes mounted on a
stand and fixed on tripod for use.
The telescopes are both brought TO bear
on the object, and a reading is then
taken from graduated scale on the in
strument, which compared with set
of printed tables, gives the distance.
BY this means the inventor obvlates the
necessity for the base line, which has
hitherto had to be laid down III these
operations, and he dispenseS with all
trigonOmetrical calculations. Distances
can be measured between far off OBJ
jects, and by means of sheet of paper
fixed on drawing board rough plan
of the country under measurement can
be sketched. In the same way the dis
tanceS of ships at sea, or of moving OBJ
jects on land, can be determined. The
apparatus appears to be well adapted to
land surveying, and particularly for
military purposes. In fact, it IS stated
to have been already adopted in the
German army in the latter connection,
and it is about TO be tired by the au-
thorities of our own War Department,
4 practical trial was made with this
instrument ON the Thames Embark
ment recently, when its varied useful
ness was demonstrated.

Never were there SO many ieebergs IL
the Atlantic as during last Nay and
June. These were found IS FAR south
as 80 degrees. and were in the line OF
steamships that ply between Europe
and America. Navigation, therefore,
has been perilous, for the vapor of ice
bergs is foggy, and in the night there
is no means of gauging how near they
are to a ship. The City OF Berlin, with
!, 400 passengers, struck an ice eerg III
the night, but she was saved from de-
struction by her long bowspri. and
prov, an unusual appendags 20 a newly
built steam vessel. Inventors have Ie-
Gently been at work to fiud means Tor
protecting steamships from collisions.
Prof. Bell suggests that an ecno might
tell of the proximity OF an iceberg, aud
commended tie plsn proposed by NJ.
Z. Della TOrre, OF BlltImOre, Tor effect
ing this object. This was tested cn
Chesapeake Bay. The apparatus cou-
sisted of speaking trumpet attached
TO the muZz'e OF O musket, from which
blank cartridges were fired at passing
vessels. The experiment so far sue
ceeded that at mile of, river steam
boats and passing schooners returned
echos at intervals proportlonate to their
distance. Another apparatus employs
a bell for producing the sound, and a
large open vessel received the echo.
The sound in this case was conveyed to
the officer on deck by telephone. These
and other inventions are being tested.
and if successful they will greatly re-
duce the danger of iceberg coliIs lous.
Intense fcgs and lower temperature are
now tine only means of suggesting that
q large iceberg is near. Steamships
now plow through the ocean at so rapid
a pace that a collision with an iceberg
would be certain destruction. There
are other ocean perils, such as aband-
oned vessels, of which there are thou
sands afoat on the ocean a collision
with any one of which might sink a
noble ship freighted with scores and
hundreds of human lives.
