A Bad Fall

An Engiishman named Thomas
Trainor, while walking along Hotel
street, below Smith street, about eight
O'Clock last evening, fell into the cellar
Of the building called Buffum's Hall,
that existed there before the fire. The
fall was from ten to fifteen feet on the
rocky debris, and the man was picked
up in a stunned condition. He was
taken to his lodging in house on
Smith street, and DR.. Tucker was call
ed and dressed severe scalp wound in
his head. Our reporter found Trainor
in bed near ten O'Clock, complaining,
as he sat up to give his name, Of severe
pain in the back. He was fireman
on an inter island steamer till three
weeks ago, and the past two days had
been working for Mr.. Lucas. The
cellar into which hs fell is never lighted
at night, and Trainor thought at differ
ent times that somebody would take a
tumble into it sometime He thinks
he would have been just as liable to
fall in without the couple of drink"
he had taken.

The Original Discovery Of Gold in
California.

1t was in Alvarado's time, and about
March, 1912. that gold was first dis
covered in Alta California. 1t is true
that among the various reports of
brakes voyage, there is one which,
in speaking of his landing at New
Albion, in 1878, saws that "there is no
part of earth to be here taken up,
wherein there is not a reasonable guam
titv OF gold or silver BUTT seems prob
able that tn S statement was an inter-
polation. Whether SO or MOI, 1t is very
certain that Drake saw neither gold
nor silver on the coast. There is no
pretense that he did in very minute
aud circumstant;al narrative entitled,
"World Encompassed,n by his chap
lain, Francis Fletcher, who would
hardly have omitted matter of so
much Importance, if known; nor is
there any references to gold or silver
in any of the narratives OF the sailors
appended to and published with the
''W orld Encompassed." For these
reasons, and on account also of the
very general, indefinite and interjcc-
tional character of the. statement it.
self, it must be rejected as n fabrica-
ton. 1t is further true that there were
reports that Capt. Jedediah S. Smith,
the first American who arrived in Cal
ifornia overland, found gold in the
Sierra Nevada Mountains about the
year 1926; but his discovery, if it were
true. took place on the eastern side of
the Sierra, and not W thin what is now
known as California. But in 1871,
Andres Castillero. the same person
who afterwards discovered the New
Almaden quicksilver nine in Santa
Clara County, while travelling from
Los Angeles 10 Monterey. found near
Santa Clara River n number of worn
out pebbles, which he gathered up and
carried with him to Santa Barbara.
He there exhibited them. said they
were "a peculiar species OF iron pyrites,
and declared thst, according to Next
can miners, wherever they were found
there was a likelihood OF gold beng
also found. A ranchero named Fran
cisco Lopez, who was living on PRO
Creek, a branch OF tho Santa Clara
Rive-, but happened at the time 10 be
at Santa Barbara, heard Castillero's
statement and examined his speci-
mems. Some months afterward. hav-
ing returned home, he went out on n
search for strayed cattle. At noon,
when he dismounted from his horse
for tho purpose OF resting, he observed
few wild onions growing near where
he lay. He pulled them up. and in
doing so noticed tho same kind Of peb-
bles as those to which Castllero had
called his attention. Remembering
what Castillero had said about them,
he took up q handful of earth. and,

Adding a Tint TO the Rainbow.

Quite discussion is going on among
our society bellies as to the best thing
for the complexion. One young lady,
whose skin Is n marvel of purity, tells
her friends that she uses nothing but
ralnwater upon her face, neck, arms
and hands. She ascribes her beauti-
full complexion entirely to the rain
water, with plenty OF good out-of-door
exercise. She has her followers; but
there rs another lady, with equally as
fine skin, who laughs at the raiR-wa-
ter idea and says she wipes her face
with a piece of line flannel dipp ed in
warm water. morning and night, and,
instead of drying with towel, she
presses her skin, TO keep it soft and
pliable. This lady also prescribes out
of-door exercise.
One thing is certain--neither OF the
prescr ptions can harm any one, which
is more than can be said OF the toilet
powders wh'ch some ladies use so dis
astrously. Some of them have reach
ed the stage so that they never go
without bit of chamois SIX covered
with powder, which they deity con-
zeal in their handkerch O.. The lady
who carefully wipes her face with her
handkerchief in public place will do
so unnoticed by ninety nine ont OF ev-
cry hundred men, but every woman
will "catch on" 10 borrow from tho
language of the street. There are no
secrets OF the toilet which one woman
can hide from another. Washington
