Rousson and WIllems have explored
the northern part Of the island Of
Terra del Fuego between SO deg.
80 min and So deg. 30 min. south
latitnde, travelling all along the north
coast and across the island, about
dIty miles south Of the Straits Of Ma
gellAn- They mapped all the little
rivers, and found that the Cullen river,
which empties into the Atlantic ocean,
Is quite an important stream. The
valley Of this river Is fne country,
and the rich herbage afforded abun-
dant nourishment for the horses upon
which the party rode. They met tho
OnA Indians all through their journey.
Quite a number of them were feet 9
inches high and very muscular.
They are nearly naked, wearing only
over their shoulders IN made capes OF
guanaco skin. The only ornament
which they possess consists of a brace
let or a collar of shells. These Indians
inhabit about two-thirds of the island.
The men occupy themselves wholly
with procuring food. Their bows and
arrows are always with them, and they
use flint arrow heads. Much of their
time is given TO making weapons OF the
chase and war They are continually
in trouble with the Indians TO the west
and south of them, from whom they
differ greatly. Chicago Times.

LONDON, June 3.-There was still the
same crowd of fashionable people present
this morning when court opened to con-
tinue the trial of the baccarat case The
Prince of Wales was in his usual place.
Sir Charles Russell, the leading counsel
for the defendants, commenced his ad-
| dress on behalf of his clients.
After he had finished Arthur Stanley
Wilson, son of the millionaire owner OF
Tranby Croft. took the stand. His evil
dence, which was very clear, created a
| sensation in court.
The court adjourned for luncheon in
the midst of this testimony, and the
Prince Of Wales again honored the Lord
Chief Justice, Lady Coleridge and her
party with his presence at luncheon,
while such celebrities as Lords Coventry
and Somerset and General Owen Will
Jams, who had failed to bring luncheon,
which their better ballaSted friends had
provided themselves, had to fight for re-
treShmentS for themselves aud ladies OF
their party around the public-house bars
of the nelghborhood, which were packed
to suffocatlon by the common herd.
After lunch Wilson continued his teSti-
mony, relating how he talked with Lev
| EFT the first night the cheating was dis
| covered, and how the latter was over
| come by the knowledge that the Lieuten-
| ant-Colonel of his own regiment Cum
| ming, had been caught cheating at cards.
Wilson also told his mother, who said.
For goodness sake, don't have a
scandal here" Next night all watched
and waited, and distinctly saw Cumming
cheating on two occasions during the
night. When the disclosures were made
the Prince OF Wales questioned Cum
ming and others, and Green asked to be
confronted with the plaintiff.
Young Wilson, during the cross-ex-
animation, was not materially shaken in
his testimony. He said he had no occu-
patton, and that he had been at Cam
bridge for year. But" he added, "my
father thought it only waste of time my
staying there"
Roars OF laughter greeted this adj
mission.
He further said that baccarat was
played at Tranby Croft in 1889, but it was
objected to, and was not played again I'M
til the Prince of Wales visited it in Sep
TENDER, 1890.
Young Wilson, with dramatic effect.
reproduced Sir William Gordon Cum
ming's attitudes and motions at the card
table, to show how the cheating was
done. Wilson distinctly denied the ex-
istence of a compact to watch Sir William
Gordon Cumming during the second
| nights play. and said he could not inn
aglne how statement to that effect got
into General Williams account of the
affair

He is an Englishman, 80 years old, and
says he did newspaper work here several
months ago. From this city he went to
Denver, st. Paul, Fort Worth and The
Dalles, doing newspaper work. He ran
into San Diego, where he first began to
work off bogus drafts. In Philadelphia
he had number of drafts printed in
blank in the name of an imaginary bank
in Juarez, Mexico, and another in Aus
tralia.
Alter he obtained work on the paper
and became known in the city in which
he was working, he would go to some
bank and represent to the cashier that he
was going to write a syndicate article on
banking methods, producing blank
forms. His next move was to Get the

He would then leave the unsuspecting

Fresno, then speedily took his way to
San Francisco, where he passed off two
more for amounts less than $500 each, and
had not the slightest difficulty in getting
them cashed. From San Francisco he
went to Philadelphia, and then came TO
this city, but thought the New York
cashiers could hardly be caught so easily,
and did not attempt to pass off any of the
drafts here. He left New York on a
Ward line steamer for Havana, but did
not meet with the same child like conf
dence with the bank officials there, and
did not succeed in placing any of his
drafts there. He made several attempts
TO do so, but the cashiers were suspicious
and wanted everything in duplicate
This did not suit, so he quietly Slipped
away to Tampa, Fla.

PHILADELPHIA, June 3.-Before the

as alleged, ''unloaded'' 100000 worth of

Unwilling of the Monument to Com
memorate His Memory.
MONTEREY, June 3.-The unwilling to-
day of the monument of Father Junipero
Sierra, to commemorate the memory of
the Franciscan friar, was witnessed by
about thousand people.
Excursion trains from San Francisco
and way-stations arrived about IL o'clock,
and were met at the depot by local or
PLANTATIONS of the old Capital
The procession consisted of the Mon
terey Military Band, the California Pho
neerS, the Native Sons of the Golden
West, Young Mems Institute, Watson
vile Zouaves, carriages containing Off
GERS of the day, orators, priests and friars.
The procession marched from the de-
pot to the spot where the monument is
erected. The monument was unveiled
by Miss Antoinette and Master Stephen
Field, children of Hon. L. j. Field of this
place.
Father Clementine Deymann delivered
the Grafton, in which he reviewed at
length the life and labors of Father Juni-
pero Sierra.
Hon. w. H. Webb then, in an elo-
quent manner, delivered the civic ora
ton, which was replete with eloquent
and historical facts.
The monument, as is generally known,
is the gift of Mrs. Stanford, as a tribute to
Inc memory of Father Junipero Sierra,
The founder of the California missions.

Father Sierra was born in the island of
Majorca, November a, lib, and was ed
ucated in the school of the Franciscan
Fathers at San Bernardino, where even
at an early age ne was remarkable for his
piety and zeal in all religious duties. He
look high rank as a scholar, and all the
donors and dignities of the church were
open TO him, but he preferred the life of a
missionary, and in l749 he set sail for
Mexico. IN that country he spent many
years, partly as teacher in Franciscan
college and partly in missionary work,
but in 1867 his great opportunity came,
and he was sent out to establish those
missions which began the civilization of
California. He made an overland march
10 San Diego, where he founded his first
mission and then came by water to Mon
Jerey, where the second was founded.
These were but the beginnings of his
work. For fourteen years he carried on
these apostolic labors with tireless en-
ergy and with such zeal and admtnistra-
tive skill that his success was remarkable
