4 Fishv Runaway.

Yesterday morning about O'Clock an
italian fish peddler, hailing from San
Pedro. was crying his wares on East Fifth
street when Q deg rushed out soaring tn o
horse. Although looking rather sleepy, the
animal started 20 suddenly that the driver
senses he was surprised to see his steed fly
ing down San Pedro street, scattering the
fish In every direction. After run of about
Z mile the horse was caught and returned to
/, fts owner, who was delighted to find every
thing all right but HIS fish, which had dis
appeared along the route, leaving the poor
peddler to wonder If they had found the
zanja and were disporting In it's waters.

THE CHINESE QUESTION.

Mr.. Mitchell called M @ bill introduced
by him on the 18th Of December, abrogating
all treaties heretofore made and now operative
between the United States government and
the Chinese empire in so far as they per-
init the admission OF Chinese to this country,
and spoke in its favor,
Mir Stewart followed Mr. Mitchell upon the
same side of'the question, but the method he
proposed vas somewhat different. He had
offered n resolution requesting the president
to negotiate n treaty with the Chinese empire
excluding Cinnamon altogether except dipio-
matte agents and those engaged in the foreign
trade; but it would be necessary also to have
ueate- With Great Britain and Mexico to pre-
Vent those powers from opening their doors
and allowing Chinese to come into the nitcd
States through their territory. Ii such treaties
could not be negotiated he would be in favor

In an adjoining column OF the same paper
was found the following peculiar commentary
on the editorial:
"Ihe bitterness OF the controversy in the

An invention that Is likely To revOutonize
fighting, and prove powerful protection to
cities and hurborS from hostile attacks is
Gen. Ber'lan's torpedo boat, 1t is a plate
steel war ram Of high speed, with double
ends, decked like a ferryboat, and CARRYING
attachments that will plant torpedoes in the
bottom of II craft at great distance in a
short time, 1t is double ender, with screws
and steering apparatus at each end The spur
is only six feet long, and is intended to pene-
trate that distance into a ship when it is
overhauled. The deck is rounded like "A ferry
| boat and can stand a severe shock. Ii has a
radius of twelve degrees, which protects the
spur when the ram approaches at an angle
less than forty-five degrees. With this, it is
said, there can be no loss or breaking of
spurs. The smoke stack and steam pipe are
built to telescope when within mile of the
enemy's ship, and the ram can then run the
remainder of the distance on reserved steam
| At the moment of contact it is only necessary
to turn a lever, which liberates long,
| jointed arm of positive motion and this will
carry the torpedo through the water and
plant it firmly in the bottom of the other
ship, which cannot hope to escape To pro-
tect the ram from small torpedo boats of the
enemy, it can be accompanied by two small
vessels of the same character. All four of
the torpedoes can be exploded at once. 1t is
said that these torpedo boats will prevent
any possibility Of u city's being shelled -
