Grand View of Golden Gate-Its Many
Superior Advantages.

Berkeley is not as large as Oakland. nor
yet as large as Alameda in municipal i'm
portance; but she is much larger than one
and quite equal to the other in extent of
territory. Within her recently expanded
boundaries she embraces nearly twelve
square miles, aud she is so situated, natu-
rally, as to be capable, with just fair op-
portunity, of distanciDg all competitors in
the race for preference and fame. In
strictly literal sense she even now looks
down upon her Deighbors, and her right to
do so is best appreciated by those who have
seen with their own eyes.
Berkeley is the most picturesauely To-
Gated of all the suburban cities. None will
presume to dispute her right to this glory.
1t is said of the residents of Paradise that
those who sit nearest the throne can gaze
down jewel-paved avenues through and be-
yond the pearly gates. Berkeley must be
near the throne, if such there be
on this prosy, unsentimental S275- a.
foot sphere, for she can gaze down
the glistening sheen OF tie bay, through
and beyond the Golden Gate, a priceless
privilege that can be enjoyed by no other
city ander the sun. Here is a scene tha.
beggars all skill less mighty than the infin-
lite to describe or initiate. The elements
are hushed with awe in its presence. Even
the hills bow their heads and are mute.

Something About Orange Culture Near
Phoenix, Ariz
Daniel Titus OF this city is in receipt of
some fine specimens of Washington navel
oranges grown in Salt River Valley,
Ariz., on land owned by the Arizona I'm
provement Company near Phoenix. These
oranges are of large size, good color, firm
aud are remark BILE for an exceptional de-
gree Of sweetness.
The trees from which these oranges were
picked were planted in April. 1889, and were
two-year- old buds when planted. partial
crop was gathered in December, 1890, but
the samples furnished US are believed to be
the first ever sent to this city
From the fact that the ordinary orange of
commerce rarely reaches market before
February or March, while these oranges are
ready for shipment from the 18th 10 the 3d.
of November. it may be inferred that this
locality may successfully compete with the
orange bearing sections throughout the
United States.
1t is but three years since the first organ
lZed anu dennlte movement toward orange
culture was undertaken in Arizona, though
there are number OF trees in the Salt
River Valley which have borne for the past
ten years. 1t Is claimed by the growers
that the crop from these trees last winter
was picked fully two months earlier than
the first shipments from California
There are now in the Salt River Valley
ABOUT 600 aeress set out to oranges and
lemons, 200 acres Of which will be In bear

ZulIck in his last official report has dwelt
at great length upon the horticulture and
vticulture of the Territory, and it is largely
to his efforts in this behalf that the present
success in this direction has been achieved.

don't think she lasted very long, as she had

the water. ] could see her lights for some
time after. and then lost sight of her
altogether.
NO HEADwAY MADE.
"All night we stemmed the gale, making
no Roadway, and the big seas sweeping the
decks fore and aft, and when daylight
broke the prospect was anything but good
one. The sea increased until L expected to
see the decks crushed in or the houses
swept overheard.
s'The pilot house and captains cabin were
flooded, forty feet of the main rail car
ried away, boat clamps broken, and the
bridge started, while tons of water poured
into the engine and fire room. The vessel
was leaking badly, and soon we had four
fee. of water in the hold, and in spite of the
three pumps and big siphon The water
slowly gained in the hold.
''Ihe entire crew then formed bucket
brigade, and tons of water We're hauled out
of the vessel by this means. Seeing that the
weather was getting worse instead of bet
Ter l rugged sea anchor from an old sail
and some spare spars. While doing this
several of the crew were nearly washed
from the deck, and the work was one of
great difficulty and danger. The anchor
helped us some, but as the vessel labored so
badly | decided to put her before the wind
and run for it, as we were not holding OuI
own with the anchor and the engines going
ahead full speed.
CUT THE ANCHOR ADRIFT.
"Soon alter o'clock on Monday night the
sea anchor was cut adrift and an attempt
was made to get the ship before the wind,
but it had to be given up. as there was
great danger of the vessel being swamped
as she fell into the trough Of the sea.
Another attempt WAS made about 10
O'Clock and this time with success, and then
the vessel made better weather of it. We
were driven back at least sixty miles before
the storm showed any signs of moderating,
and then the steamer was once more
brought head to the sea-. and then we began
TO make some headway."
Captain Saunders said the storm lasted
until Tuesday morning, and was the worst
he has ever seen. The sea was so rough
that il was almost impossible for deep
laden vessel ike the Maggie Ross with a
big deck = load on board to have lived
through it.

CHASING A WOLF.
Chicago South Side People Get Glimpse
of Pioneer Life,

Chicago South Side People Get Glimpse
of Pioneer Life.
South Side citizens have had an exciting
chase after real live wolf, according to the
Chicago Inter Ocean. Just where the ami
nal came from is not known, but he was
evidently new to city life. The first
intimation that the residents of that
portion of the city had of the ar
rival OF the stranger in their midst
was the sight Of Strengthening
animal worrying small dog near the
corner OF indiana avenue and IWenty-htth
street. Something in the savage manner in
which the animal snarled and showed It's
teeth at the approach of pedestrian
warned those whose curiosity PROMPTED
them to investigate the strange spectacle
not to venture too near, and they quickly
retired to watch developments from the
shelter and safety of adjacent doorways.
Such was the state of affairs, when about
10 80 O'Clock the dog-catcher's wagon hove
In sight. Ever on the alert the officers
Schlosser. whose skill with the lasso is the
terror of all homeless ours, prepared to en-
circle the throat OF the supposed dog with
the moose. But for once the proposed
captive was too quick for them and
leaped to one side in time to avoid the
snase Then for the first time spectators
were enabled to get good look at Che OBJ
jet of their curiosity. The CRY of wolf
was at once raised as the animal started off
at a sharp srot down Indiana avenue,
closely pursued by the yelling crowd, with
Officer John Jorndt and the dog-catcher
well in the lead. Even "Bily" Orchard,
tho driver of the wagon, caught the infec-
ton. and leaving the wagon in charge of
citizen. he. too. Joined in the chase.
When the corner of Thirtieth street was
reached the wolf sought TO evade the
shower OF miscellaneous missiles thrown at
him from every side by turning the corner.
Down Twenty-ffth street the chase was
continued to Cottage Grove avenue, down
that avenue to Twenty-sXth street, then
through alleyways and vacant lots to Lake
avenue; then across the Illinois Central
Railway tracks 10 the lake shore, where
the wolf took shelter in hole about eight
feet deep just behind the breakwater.
Officer Jorndt and SchlosSer. who had
kept the animal in sight, were only few
seconds behind at the death, and before the
greater part of the crowd had arrived they
had lassoed the wolf and started back to
where they had left the wagon. Their cap
tive was at once taken to the og-pound,
where he was accommodated with a COM
partment all by himself. He is of grayish
color and Is about the size of large mas
tiff dog.

THE ILL-FATED STEAMER
The Inflated steamer now lies at Yaquina
City. Her cabin was swept away fore and
aft, her smokestack is hanging over her
side and her lOrecaste was swept away.
The steamers steering gear was also car
rled away. Soon after the willamette
Valley passed the mouth of Sinslaw River
yesterday she came upon the disabled
steamer and at once took her in tow. she
carried coal and lumber, but her cargo this
trip was mostly of cedar lumber. She was
reported from Coos Bay Monday and left
that port on the afternoon Of that day.
Captain Marshall was her master, and her
engineer name was McAnney, who formerly
was employed on the steamer Yaquina
