and vicinity, but it is feared that he lost
his life in the recent great fire which swept
through the redwoods. His clothing was
found badly charred, and there were evil
denceS Of his having fought the fire, but
his dog and chickens had disappeared.
When he first took to the woods, five years
ago, he resided in a cabin of his own con-
struction and expected to die soon of con-
sumption, but he got quite well and had
lately lived much of the time in a hollow
tree.
He was evidently a maj of fine educa-
ton, and wrote English as well as an Eng
fish scholar, besides his native German.
1t was surmised that he had been an officer
of the Austrian army. and that he had de-
serted or been eXiled. He stated that most
of his early life had been spent in Bohe'
mia. He had many correspondents, and
since his disappearance quite a lot of mail
for him has accumulated in the Healds-
burg postofice.
From his letters to gentlemen in Califor-
mia it appears that he was an ardent be-
lever in Tolstoi, and u Chronic kicker"
as he phrased it, against the existing social
organization. In Austria, he said, "they
put a ma in Jail, but they feed him. Here
If a man is not a church member and does
not wear a muzzle, he cannot even earn
seventy-fve cents a day in the cannery."
He worked in Healdsburg occasionally and
lived plainly. giving a great deal to the
poor people near him.

Between the ceiling and the roof was a
considerable space, of which the bees had
taken possession, and in time almost filled
it with comb. The heat had looscned the

California bees do not take kindly to close
hives. The climate invites to an open air
life, and they prefer trees or caves. In the
Cajon PASS, near San Bernardino, they
have filled a large cave, and at Temescal,
near the San Jacinto tin mine, there is a
literal mine of honey. On Il recent Sunday

Disposition of Cruisers,

WASHINGTON, Oct. Sit is announced
that the cruisers Boston and Atlanta will
be sent to the Pacific for service at an
early date. The alarming news from
China and the constantly growing de-
mand for more vessels in the Pacific has
forced Secretary Tracy to make this dis
posal of these vessels. The vessels will
probably go to Chill to relieve the Balti-
more and San Francisco, which are in
need of repairs. The dissolution of the

of the gentlemen owning stables or desir-
ing to have II stable, to buy their horses for
them. His Judgment, which was almost
unerring. thus awaited to make a business
for him, and he speedily won a repute sec
ond to that of no other man in that bust
ness.
A few years ago Mr.. Easton became as
sociated with the amous Tnttersul's auc-
ton stables, in upper New York. This
mart is, for those engaged in business per-
tanning to horses, something like what the
Stock exchange is for those whose business
is the purchase or slle of railway securi-
ties. 1t is modelled after the famous mart
of the same name in London. Here are
brought constantly as fine specimens of
racers, hackney horses, cobs, saddle horses
and conchers as can be found in America.
II frequently famous stables-snch as
that of William Rockefeller or the late
August Belmont, sometimes horses be-
longing to the Lorillard stable-are brought
and Offered for sale. These sales are
events in the world of horsemen. Some
times they bring thousands of horscmen to
New York city from all parts of the coun-
try. Thus when Mr.. Rockefeller's stable
was sold there were horse fanciers from
San Francisco, New Orleans. Montreal and
Halifax present.
Mr.. Easton is the auctioneer, and very
great fame he has won in the discharge Of
that rather difficult duty. There are sew
eral auctioneers in New York who are
known throughout the country. One is II
jewelers. a]uctioneer, and in that trade he
is famous, being frequently called to San
Francisco to conduct sales; another is a
dry goods a~uctioneer, and another an auc-
tioneer of real estate. Easton equals any
of them in the celebrity with which he con
ducts a sale, and the fairness as we'll: and
it is regarded as a guarantee of an honest
sale when William Easton auctions off the
horse. 1t is a peculiar repute, but Mr..
Easton enjoys it, and it is a profitable one
for him

Grover \ Papa.

New York, Oct. 5.-Mrs. Grover
Cleveland has become a mother. The
welcome new M in the ex-president's
family is a daughter. At the Mills
building, where Mr.. Cleveland has his
law office, it was apparent to visitors
who asked for him during the morning
that something Of more than ordinary
interest kept him at home. Along about
II o'clock the ex-president's secretary
came to the Office after MI. Cleveland's
personal mail and related the reason for
the ex-president's absence. Everybody
about the office was smiling when it be-
came known that the ex-president was
the father of a pretty eight-pound, fair
haired girl, who had arrived in the
night. Mr.. Cleveland's law partners
and Colonel Dan Lamont, who has an
office in the same building, confirmed
the report, and after the close of the
stock market, and while the lawyers
who have their offices in the big
buildings on Broad and Wall street,
were going home little else was talked
of. Colonel Lamont and other personal
friends of the Clevelands at once sent
their congratulations and rejoiced to re-
ceive assurances from Mr.. Cleveland
that both mother and child were doing
well. AT the residence of the ex-presi-
dent on Madison avenue the servants
simply confirmed the report, but would
venture no other information than that
liz -.--
that it had been expected for two days,
and that Mrs. Cleveland is at present
doing very well.

Powder Explosion.

BUTTE, Mon, Oct. 3.-At Up. M, an
explosion occurred in the southeastern
part of the city that was felt all over
town. 1t occurred in the hosting house
of the Ground Squirrel mine. The hoist.
ing engine and boiler near the shaft
were covered by a small frame house.
A good deal of giant powder is used in
sinking, and since cold weather set in
the boxes containing it have been kept
behind the boilers to prevent freezing.
There were several boxes of caps near at
the time, and six boxes of giant powder.
The roof Of the hosting works caught
fire abont the time mentioned and
in spite of the engineers efforts the
Flames Got Beyond Control.
They soon burned down to where the
caps were, and they exploded. The con-
cussion discharged the giant powder in
the boxes. The result was the most
complete wreck of the houses in the
neighborhood, about fifty being more
OF less damaged. Though many were
mo- or less hurt, no lives have been
lost, as far as learned. Mrs. Anna Po-
Itch and child are seriously injured by
flying debris, the mother perhaps fatally.
Mike Adams, who was walking thirty
yards away, was knocked down and is
insensible with conclusion of the brain.
A miner at the bottom of the shaft of
the Ground Squirrel was struck and
fatally injured by the fall of the bucket.
The conclusion was felt wei a mile
from the scene of the explosion.

the western emigrant who painted "Pike's

sail old boatmen shook their heads and
vowed hat the Little Rover would never
