A LITTLE VOLCANO.
The Southern Pa0ific's Coal Supply Burn
ing at Fresno.

The Southern Paoific's Coal Supply Burn
ing at Fresno.
FRESNO, CAL, Sept. 22.-About two
months ago the Southern Pacific rail-
rond company began to haul large guam
titles OF coal to this place. It.was piled
on the ground for want of bunkers. The
coal was brought from Wyoming. A
few days ago smoke was discovered
pouring from the coal; men were set to
work to extinguish it. The fire was
caused by spontaneous combustion. The
efforts to extinguish the flames were
futile. Today the entire mass OF three
thousand tons is on fire. Fifty men
have been at work all day,
trying to subdue the fire, but it is yet
beyond control. An engine with water
cars is busy hauling water with which
to flood the coal heap. The water
seems to increase the volume OF the fire,
which bursts out in blue flames where
the water is thrown on. Tonight men
are removing the coal from the sides,
hoping to save portion OF it. I'M
less success attends this movement,
the loss will not be less
than $4,000. The heat and poison
ous gases nearly suffocated the men at
work. When the fire is extinguished in
one place it bursts out violently in an
other place. The mass is 200 feet long,
and line of craters runs along the sum-
NIT from which blue flames issue.
Large crowds of people visit the novel
scene OF the miniature mountain of coal
on fire.

Attached to the letter was another
brief postscript, calling attention to the
fact that other letters would be found
addressed to his wife and mother, and
requesting that they be delivered. These
letters simply contain the unfortunate
mans farewell. Minister Egan assures
your correspondent that in neither letter
is there the least reference to the mo-
tiyes that drove Balmaceda to suicide.

HORRIBLE MURDER.
The Victim Backed to Pieces and Fed
to Hogs.

SAN LUIS OBIsPo, CAL, Sept. pa
horrible murder has been unearthed,
which was committed at the eastern
border of this county, the 9TH of June
last. Martin Helnes disappeared on
that day, leaving no traces. Within the
last few days his blanket and clothes
were found, sunk in we'll, covered up
with stones, fragments of bone and flesh
showing he had been hacked to pieces. An
axe was found near by, buried in hog
named Jennen Silvia Gnlarte r = for whom hon
the man worked. The coroner's jury
found that Heines had been murdered
bv Gularte. The evidence tends to show
that Gularte had killed Heines by shoot
ing him in the back, chopped him up,
and fed the pieces to his hogs.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 22.-- Without count
ing some preliminary work that has been
done, the first real step toward the res
toration OF the old Sutter fort was taken
this afternoon when George w. Murray,
Jr., contractor, laid the first adobe brick
in the new wall. The old time methods
have been followed in the manufacture
of the adobe bricks, and when the struc
ture is rebuilt it will look just like the
original one that afforded shelter to so
many early pioneers. Governor Mark

James G. Blaine will soon after the
first of the New Year notify his friends
and admire RS who are now urging his
nomination for the presidency, that
under no circumstances could he ac-
cept such honor, and that he is
for the denomination of Harrison. This
information is given the Mail and Ex-
press on the authority of a man whose
name is national, and whose position as
friend of Harrison and Blaine is un-
questioned. He is man who has had
charge of the northwest for the presi-
dent, and has the fullest confidence of
both interested parties. This situation
has been known to the president some
time, and Blaine postpones his notifica-
tion for good and sufficient reasons, best
known to himself. He expects to return
to Washington in October. His health
is SO much improved that he will go to
work at once.

reputed to be the most luxurious and
best arranged cemetery in South Amer
lea 1t is situated on the sea shore
and divided into three sections, sur
rounded by high walls, in which are
arranged on the inside innumerable
inches, each with its marble tablet re-
cording the names OF those whose re-
mains are deposited inside. The cof-
fins are wound up to the mouth OF
these mural cellules by means OF a
portable lift and ladder combined, and
the whole surface Of the wall is hung
with wreaths OF fresh flowers or OF
beads, which stand out in strong re.
lief against the marble facings. Each
section OF the cemetery Is carefully
laid out. fenced in with iron ratings
and full OF tombs and monuments OF
great price and pretensions, due to the
chisels of the sculptors OF Rome and
Milan. The vegetation in the ceme-
terry is most varied, and besides the
funeral Expresses there are Towering

Never Too Late TO Learn.

History amply proves the truth Of
this trite saying. You can probably
all call to mind from your readings in
stances OF men and women, gray with
years, who took up some special line
OF study and mastered 1t. Yet we are
continually hearing people, while still
in their twenties, say with choking
sigh Of regret that they are so sorry
they didn't learn this or that when
they were young; but that it is too late
now, they are too old to learn. Bosh!
II they would tell the truth they would
say that they are too lazy to make the
effort When you hear anyone talk
that way just mention the following
facts to him:
Socrates, at an extreme old age,
learned to play on musical instruments.
Cato, at 80 years Of age. learned to
speak the Greek language.
Plutarch, when between 20 and 80.
commenced the study Of Latin.
Boccaccio was 35 years OF age when
he began his studies in light literature,
yet he became one Of the greatest mas
tiers Of the Tuscan dialect

England is the only place know of

drivers say that by sitting on the right

Quick going vehicles will turn a
corner sharply, but the driver raises
his whip to notify the vehicle in his
immediate rear that he Is abou: to
turn. ''Cabbies" are more considerable
concerning fellow-drivers than they
are thoughtful about the lives and
limbs of pedestrians. All their atten-
ton is given to the roadway. Pedes-
trians must look out for themselves or
be run over. That is why so many Of
the London police are engaged solely
in attending TO street traffic. Yet,
with all their vigilance, more accidents
occur in London. proportionately. than
elsewhere. London drivers arc polite
and very civil to each other. II an

most entirely to the summer season,

MASCULINITIES

There Is an hour in each mans life APP

There is no virtue an doing what you

Love looks through spectacles which
make copper appear like gold, poverty like
riches and foul tears like pearls.
