SCHOONER STOLEN,
4 Piratic9l Tale From the Pearl
Fisheries of Baja California.

ElskhcEteS Oh bSJA CSElh0Tmtas
SAN Diego, January 30.-C. II. So
lario, one of the brothers who came here
with number of Chinese capitalists
from the Eon Yike pearl fisheries to do
business on the coast of Lower California,
arrived by the steamer Newburn
from Ensenada, and reports that
the schooner John Hancock, which
the company leased in San Francisco
had disappeared together with the cargo,
valued at from nine to ten thousand
dollars. The vessel stopped off the San
Jose end of the peninsula January 9th,
and Solario and two Mexicans went
ashore to get some provisions for
the return voyage. They were followed
by the other sailors from the Hancock,
who, under Captain Millions orders,
seized their steam launch and put back
to the vessel, which then put out to sea.
The four divers on board were sent
ashore in small boat. Since then
the vessel has not been seen. Solsrio
will proceed to San Francisco to demand
reparation from the owners Of the vessel.
Il is believed Captain Milton intends to
dispose of the carge and appropriate the
proceeds. Included in the cargo were two
pearls valued at over 81, 900.

dience was held from half-past seven till
near eleven o'clock before the curtain
rose. No one lost his temper at the un-

to get his money back. The gal.

good. natured way throughout the
long wait, and as there was
no opera, on the stage. the ''gods" en-
tertained the rest of the house with pop
ular songs and amusing choruses. "I'm
waiting, I'm waiting fol thee, love! !'

and such was the good nature OF the

fellow to have seriously started the fight

A SECT of human blood-drinkers has
been unearthed in the vicinity of Blue
river, Missouri. A man named John
Wrinkle started the sect and justifes the
practice by perverting the declaration in
the Bible that blood is life. John
Wrinkle was found in his bed in the last
stage of consumption, and he confessed
that he had been drinking the blood o.
two emaciated children found on bis
premises. This horrible revelation has
justly incensed the community against
the fanatics who have so shockingly per.
verted the scriptures to justify their cruel
and disgusting practices.

The San Francisco Chronicle says that
the people hereaway have no right to
take exception to the efforts made in the
northern part of the State to introduce the
orange industry. We neither claim mol
exercise such right. What we object to is
the absurd claim of the people of the
northern section that they can make
orange culture as much a success there
as here. They have tried it for ten OF
twelve years without success, and the
people here object to the dishonest
methods adopted by the north to adver.
tise their locality as an orange-growing
region when it is not one and never can

efforts. The board issued an order requiring
that upper berths in sleeping cars be closed
when not in use, but the Illinois Railroad
company took exception and made test
case, which was decided in favor of tue

was carried to the supreme court which
has sustained the boards order, and here
after, when passing through Minnesota, the
upper berths in cars will have to be closed
when they are not occupied. If the rail

can it not go still further and prevent the
running of cars with upper berths!

INCoMPETENCY, NOT ILL LUCK.

All these misforJunes which are coming
upon the Union Pacific railway cannot be
chargeable to s'bad luckn There must be
a search in some other direction for tic
causes Of at least few of the dis
asters which are wrecklng so many en-
gines, smashing so many cars and destroy
ing SO many goods. II is said that the catss-
trophies on the line south Of Ogden within
the past four months, have cost the COM
pany more money than all the disasters
which befell that branch of the system du-
ring the previous twenty years. On every
division, from Omaha to Portland, acci
dents are occurring almost daily and many
Of them are Of decidedly serious charac
ter. Hundreds of thousands Of dollurs'
worth of property have been destroyed
within the past few months, and the de-
struction continues, there being 20 appar-
ent effort on the part of the big chiefs OF
the road to prevent it.
We apprehend that one of these daysit
will occur to the owners OF the road tlas
bad luck is not chargeable with what is

THE mx1NLEY FRAUD ON TIE FARMER.

Our exports to Europe are chiefly agri-
cultural. Europe pays US for them with
checks on her banks with which we DUR
chase goods from all other places-Asia.
Africa, and South America. From the
last named continent we buy with these
checks for farm products, coffee, sugar.
rubber and medicines. This pay for the
farm products of this country is thus
finally returned to this country in the
shape of South American goods The
farmers exchange cotton, breadstuffs and
provisions for European manufactures.
and with the latter buy coffee, sugar, rub
Der and medicines.
The manufacturers object to this, and say
the farmer has no right to send his pro-
ducts to Europe, which pays for our pro-
ducts with her own products-her manu-
features. The mill owners say, very prop
erly, too, that this exchange of farm pro-
ducts for European manufactures brings
the American farmer into direct competi
ton with the American manufacturer in
supplying South America with manufac-
tured goods; and this government
has never permitted such equality
between farmer and mill owner for
the past thirty years. Only the mill
owners have the right to supply South
