The Southern Pacific is figuring on a
new entrance to San Francisco for their
coast line. 1t will run up from Mayfield
and follow the coast closer, avoiding the
present detour by San Jose. This is the

tween Templeton and Ellwood is closed
up, and the idea is to have as rapid a
route as possible.

HOW A WATERSPOUT LOOKS.
Tearing Up Wharves and Scattering Fishes
and Debris.

and Debris.
Eye-1Itnesses describe the waterspout
as presenting a most impressive and
beautiful spectacle. 1t formed abOu.
half way between Point Clear and Battles
wharf and proceeded slowly toward the
shore, roaring at first with a very loud
noise. 1t struck Battles wharf near the
shore end and cut it off as neatly as if it
had been sawed off. The spout sucked
up q great lot of splintered wood and
went dashing inland, carrying with it
mass OF whirling debris, In the midst of
which hundreds of fish were mingled.
The waterspout proceeded up the lane,
tore off the corner of barn, and then
fell to the ground with loud noise, de-
posting the mass of broken wood and
fish. Capt. L, H. Kennerly gives a
graphic account of the phenomenon.
He says that he watched the waterspout
from beginning to the end. There was a
very heavy black cloud in the sky off the
point, and ali the clouds in the neighbor
hood were seen moving toward the center
of the black cloud. He knew then that a
waterspout was forming, and called at
tention to the atmospheric disturbance.
Presently the water of the bay, about one
hundred yards off the end OF the long
wharf, began to boil and whirl around
with loud noise. This whirlpool was d.
rectiy beneath the black cloud. The
black cloud then formed in funnel-sha pc
and let down point, revolving ia a di-
reotion contrary to the whirI pool below.
Soon two bodies OF water Joined in form
ing column about fifty feet in diam
eter liz the middle and reaching up about
mile in the air. As soon as the Jun ction
was formed the greater part of the rush
ing waters ceased. The colamn stood
apparently motionless for about fifteen
minutes, and had an angle with the hori
zon of about 80 degrees. The funnel at
top was dead black, but the body of the
waters pout was slate-colored. At the bot
tom, where the spout spread into pyra-
mid, the water was green and white. It
was magnificent sight. Then the whole
mass began moving slowly toward Battles,
and came Enthusiastically along, bending
more and more as it advanced. When it
reached the shore, just where the wharf
joins the shore, the spout bent in the
middle, and report of electric discharge
and,.a fash of lightning announced that the
spout was broken. The greater part of
the water was sucked up in the heavens
as the spout parted in the middle, and
the remainder fell with great noise, en-
veloping the wharf and breaking it down
for a distance of perhaps fifty feet,
reaching from the shore to small house
situated out on the wharf. The effects of
the spout were felt on land slightly. 1t
was only q remnant of gyrating water
that hit the house on land, and the dam
age resulting was small.

THE REAL WOMAN PROBLEM.

Prof. Lester Z. Ward has an article
yember Forum, which we heartily COM
mend to the attention of the female suf-
fragists. He opens with the interesting
declaration that true science teaches that
the education of woman is the only sure
road to the evolution of man, and insists
that woman is the race. "Recognizing
female sex" he says, sit becomes clear
that it must be from the steady advance
of woman rather than from the uncertain
fluctuations of man that the sure and
solid progress of the future is TO come
woman, he continues, sis the unchanging
trunk of the great genealogic tree, while
man, with all his Wanted superiority, is
but branch, grated scion, as it were,
whose acquired qualities die with the in
dividual, while those of woman are hand
ed on to futur1ty. Woman is the race,
and the race can be raised up only as she
is raised up. If we properly understand
the Professor, his argument is all in the
education and by training to the plane
which msn occupies. In other words,
woman should be treated as the equal, and
not the inferior, of man; not his slave
but his companion. It is failure to do
this, We believe, which has given strength
to the woman's suffrage cause. If all men
treated women with the same consider
alton they are forced to give to other
men as strong or stronger than them
selves, showing proper regard for their
personal and property rights in the max
ing of laws and acknowledging their ex-
aat equality in the domestic relation, the
orce of stronger minded women would
soon become extinct.

SACKVILLE'S DISMISSAL.
Substance of Secretary Bayard's Letter-A
Parallel Case.

Substance of Secretary Bayards Letter-A
Parallel Case.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The form of
Lord Sackville's dismissal is said to be
as follows:
s'MY LoRD:-By direction of the presi-
dent have the honor to inform. you that
for cause heretofore made known to her
majesty's government your continuance
in your present official situation near
this government is no longer acceptable
and woulG consequently be detrimental
to the good relations between the two
powers. I have the further honor by di-
rection OF the president, to inclose you
letter of safe conduct through the terri
tories of the United States. I have the
honor to be your obedient servant,
Z. T. BAYARD."
There was decided stir in the depart
ment when a messenger from the British
legation came with letter addressed to
the secretary of state. It was from Lord
Sackville and conveyed to the secretary
an acknowledgment of this receipt of his
letter of October Both. It was extremely
brief and formal, and Lord Sackuiile
subscribed himself "Your obedient ser
want, Sackville." According to diplomat
10 etiquette Lord Sackville is simply
a private individual now and is at liberty
to regulate his movements to suit him
self and in accordance with the instruc-
tions of his own government. He may
remain in Washington indefinitely, but
he is no longer the British minister, nor
will the state department recognize him
in any official capacity whatever. Many
years ago it was the custom to give a
foreign minister who had been dismissed
twenty four hours to quit the country.
This has long since been abandoned, and
it is likely that Lord Sackville will not
exercise undue haste in leaving the Uni
ted States. If he follows diplomatic
presidents he will forward to his own
government the notification received
from the president, and in due course
will receive leave of absence for an in
definite period. No further action will
be taken by the Unitsd States govern
ment.
The most accurate parallel of the
Sackville case, so far as the action of the
United States relates, is that of Sir John
Champion, who was her Britannia maj
esty's representative in Washington in
1858. He violated the accepted inter
national law of neutrality by seeking re-
cruits for the British army in the Crimea.
The facts were laid before the British
government and Sir John was notified
that his conduct was displeasing to the
United States. he shortly after left for
England.
