A Sweet-Minded Woman.

So great is the influence of a sweet
minded woman on those around her
that it is almost boundless. 1t is to her
that friends come in seasons of sorrow
and sickness fer hell and comfort; one
soothing touch of her kindly hand
works wonders in the feverish child, a
few words let fell from her lips in the
ear ofa sorrow-stricken sister do much
to raj, the load of grief that is bowling
its victim down to The Dust in anguish.
The husband comes home worn out
with The piess ure of busint IS and feel
ing irritable with the world in general,
but when he enters tie cosy sitting
room and sees the blaze of fire and
meets his wife's smiling face, he sue
cumbs in moment to the soothing in
fluences which act as the balm of Gilead
to his wounded spirits that are wearied
with the stern realities Of life. The
rough school-boy flies in a rage from
the taunts of his companions to find
solace in his mothers smile; the little
one, full of grief with her large trouble,
finds haven of rest on its mothers
breast; and so one might go on with in
stance after instance of the influence
that sweet-minded woman has in the
social life with which she is connected.
Beauty is an insignificant power when
compared with hers. -Churchn1dn.

gave the order to haul in on the port braces.
We had no sooner got the yards braced up
than the ship struck again with terrible
force, and inside Of half minute struck
once or twice more. l then had the pumps
manned, but soon found they were of little
use against the stream Of water that poured
in.
1.-THE tug came alongside about half-past
Z. and we at once took a hawser. At that time
the vessel was in deep water, and was head
ing south. The tug had hold OF US about
half an hour and took US to the nOrthward,
heading for the north channel. Finding
that the vessel was sinking we let 60 the
tow-line and got out the boats. The water
was level with the decks at that time. There
was little or no wind, but there was short,
ehoppy swell running. Neither Of the boats
shipped any water.
Il left the sinking ship in the second
boat and we had TO hurry as she was sink
ing fast. We had hardly got clear of the
wreck when she went down head first. She
sank in fourteen fathoms. The heads of
her topmaSts are still above the water. We
tried TO save some of the sails, but were not
able to do so owing to the strong ebb tide.
The men saved all their clothes but my
wife lost one trunk, which fell overheard as

Assault Each Other.

No. 81 Norfolk street was the scene last
night of row that may prove serious to
at least one of the participants and did re-
suit In two arrests for assaults with deadly
weapons. The arrested are Paul Humper-
dinck, a carpenter, and Thomas Russell, an
expressmsn, who live with their families at
the above number.
Russell is tenant and sublets certain
rooms to Humperdinck. He also collects
the rent, or is supposed to, but on Wednes-
day Humperdnck paid the rent to Mrs.
Russell, who made no accounting to her
husband, with the result that Russell de-
manded money. HumperdincK refused to
pay his rent twice and claimed that M rs.
Russell must have drunk it up." This
angered Russell all the more and the quar-
rel grew hot
Russell entered Humperdinck's rooms on
Wednesday and assaulted Mrs. Humper-
dinck while her husband was absent. Last
night the sub-renter went to the well with O
graniteware pitcher and was set upon by
Russell with hatchet. The two women
rushed to the rescue and fight ensued.
Mrs. Russell welded the Ratchet, which she
seized from her husband, Mrs. Humper-
dinck appeared with a pistol, which, how
ever, was not fired, while Humperdinck
made use with effect of his pitcher.
NeghbOrs interfered and the men were
arrested and taken to the Southern Station,
thence to the Central Station and Receiving
Hospital for repairs. Mrs. Russell will be
arrested to-day. Humperdinck had frac-
ture of the skull and other scalp wounds,
and Russell sustained a deep incisiOn in the
forehead. Mrs. Russell is injured little

MOLDERS.
Six of the Red-Card Men" De.
sert the Founders.

Six of the ten molders brought from the
East last night changed their quarters at the
"scab" hotel in the Union Iron Works for
comfortable beds in SecOnd-street hostelry
provided for them by the strikers, and unless
President Valentine of the holders Union
is very much mistaken they will 20 back to
their Eastern homes before the next week
ends.
The day was full of excitement for those
interested in the struggle. The founders
were Jubllant over their success in import
ing trst-elass mOlders from the East, and
saw the end of the strike in the near future
They talked of other men who were COM
ing, and took representatives. of the
press to interview the impOrtatiOns,
ana 1t IS said that these. being in
the presence Of their new employers,
shamefully disregarded the truth aud said
that they were too happy for anything and
had no desire 10 desert the gentlemen to
whom they were indebted for a nice trip
across the continent.
President Valentine viewed the inter-
viewers through powerful field-glass and
declared that he was able 10 repeat Just what
the "red-card men" were saying to the report
eTs. He had interviewed two Of the new men
himself at an early hour in the morning and
learned from them that they were in ig-
n0rance of the true state Of affairs, and in
spite of the fact that there was some friction
between their organization and the Eastern
branches OF the union they were not con-
tent to take the places of men who had
struggled Tor sixteen months TO defend what
they considered their rights.
They sd d that two of the men who came
with them were not members of their or
ganiZati0n, but 'scabs" picked up in Phila-
deiDhia. At o'clock six of the red card
men left the Union Iron Works and pro-
ceeded to the mOlders' headquarters, where
President Valentine says they agreed to de-
SeE their new employers and return to the

men. Soon after the starbOard boat Was
lowered and the rest Of the crew, including
the captain, at once pulled off 10 the tug.
The water was washing over the ships
decks and she was rapidly settling down
forward as the second boat left her side.
Five minutes afterwaTd she sank head first
and IN a moment nothing but the upper
tOpsail yards were visible.
Captain Randall got out his lead line and
found that the Palestine had sunk in four
teen and half fathOms of water. Will
doing so her long boat which had been
dashed on top Of the forward house, broke
the lashlng and rose to the surface. There
was very little sea on at the time and the
crew made an attempt TO save some of fine
sails. The royal halyards were cut and the
sails cut loose from tie yards, but owing to
the spars swinging around in the strong
tide the attempt had to be abandoned The
long boat was picked up and taken along
side the Wizard and the tug started for the
city towing the three boats behind her. The
shipwrecked party were landed at Vallejo
street Wharf at 1890 o'clock in the after
noon.
Although the wreck occurred early no
word Of the disaster was received in the city
until nearly noon. Then il spread like Wild

They May Sue for the Maintenance of
Patients.
The Supreme Court yesterday rendered a
very important decision in the case of the
Directors of the State Asylum for the Iu-
sane at Stockton against James Smith.
Smiths wife was committed to the Stock
ton Asylum for treatment, and was known
on the rolls of the institution as an INDECENT
inmate. In due time the Directors demand
ed of the husband the sum fixed by law 10
be charged in cases where patients are able
to pay for their care.
Smith refused to pay the amount de-
manded, and the Directors of the Asylum
sued him in the Superior Court of San
Joaquin County. The decision was in his
favor on the ground that the Directors had
no authority to bring suit against him. An
appeal was then taken by the Directors
The appellate tribunal reversed the decision
on the ground that the Directors OF the
Asylum are Trustees, with full power and
control over all moneys appropriated for
he maintenance of the Asylum, which
moneys are appropriated for the expenses
of the Asylum. The moneys received 90
into the State Treasury. part of the duties
OF the Trustees being to collect the money.
Under these circumstances, 1t is held that
1t Is the duty of the Directors to collect by
suit If necessary, and, as Trustees of an
express trust, they NAV do so.

ward and westward after striking the bar,
as the point where she now lies, marked on
the map with cross and the word wreck"
is nearly nine miles from Point L0bos. The
masts are nearly in a direct line with the
South Farallon, as viewed from Point
Lobos Station.
All the persons questioned in the locality
by the CALL reporter failed to account for
the Palestine striking and sinking, except
on the assumption Of there being some
change In the s0undings or a subme rged
obstacle at the point where the dis aster
happened. 1t was held that for vessel draw
ing only twenty-four feet to strike in conf
paratively smooth water on a bank on
which the lowest s0undings are five fath0ms
on the south side could hardly be possible
A number of persons took the Clubhouse
cars during the afternoon, but very few OBJ
tanned glimpse of the wreck. Not a few
of these visitors rambled some distance
along the cliff outside the heads nearly as
far as Bakers Beach. under the impression
that the bar is inside instead of outside the
heads.
In the shaded portion of the accompany
ing plan the extensive deposit of sand form
ing the bar, with its subdivisions and the
Potato Patch or FOur-fathom Bank to the
north, are clearly shown. The average
depth of water all over the bar is about five
and half fathomS. 1t is not an uncommon
thing for ships Of deep draught to bump on
the bar even when in charge Of an expert
enced pilot, but no serious damage results,
and the knowledge of this fact makes the
rapid laundering of the Palestine the more
surprising.
