From the Bakersfield Californian.
In 1853 A. J. Maltb,, who for many years has
lived at Woody, opened gold mine living in
the ridge between White river and Rag Gulch
in Kern county. and from IL extracted great
deal OF gold
When water was struck the ground vas
stopped above. and then work ceased. Mr.
Maitby. however. always felt confident that
there was an abundance OF rich rock s:ill deeper
down in the vein, and recently, With other par
ties. started shaft and tunnel to tap the mine
below the old workings
The pay chute in found to be about sixty feet
long, with . vein from Eve 70 twsntv-four
inches wide, and at present carving .eam Of
ore about five inches thick that viii mill over
$500 ton in gold
MT. Msltby has brought samples here. The
quartz rs lively and carries seams of oxide OF
iron which are literally full Of gold The speci-
mems are very handsome, and withal Of good
size.
The ground from the tunnel TO the old works
has been stopped out, the last run Of thirty
eight tons yielding 22l ounces OF gold bullion,
valued at 81, 762, or over s7s per ton. In this
run there was no asserting, al Of the Quartz
that was mined being sent 70 mill
In the bottom OF the tunnel the ledge con-
tinues as good ~ above, the rich seam sspec-
tally well holding it's own. There seems 20 be
no reason why this mine should not yiald a
handsome profit.

SOCIETY WILL MOURN.
The Death OF Mrs. Harrison Will Have Q
Marked Effect on Social Events.

The Death OF Mrs. Harrison Will Have .
Marked Effect on Social Events.
The Vice President and Mrs. Morton and the
members Of the cabinet and their wives being
the official family Of the President will, it is
understood, go in mourning and will therefore
withdraw from all participation in social evDnts
for one month. This custom obtains in for
eign countries upon the death Of a queen
There seems no other way for them to publicly
express their sense Of personal loss and SYM
pathy with the great grief which has come to
the chief executive. When this subject was
talked over today Mrs. Harrison's own
conduct when the sad events of
two winters ago brought desolation and
sadness to the homes Of two Of the cabinet
came quickly to the mind of every one She
did all that official honors could have suggested.
but more than that. her tender thought and con-
alteration for each individual found manifesto
ton in every possible way. Her real grief and
solicitude touched every one, and her part in
assuaging the sorrows in tho families Of
Mr.. Blaine, Secretary Tracy and the stricken
household of Secretary Window NAV always be
referred to as q model Of womanly kindness.
The effect Of the death of Mrs. Harrison on
general society will be marked. It has come at
o quiet season, but If it had been at any other
period it would have been observed by similar
expressions Of respectful sympathy.

The Twentieth Annual Convention Beinl
Held at Buffalo, y. Y.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Oct. 25-The twentieth an
nual convention of the Carriage Builders Ma
tional Association of America began at Music
Hall this morning and will continue three
days. 1t is really four conventions in one, as
the carriage dealers, carriage travelling men and
carriage hardware men will also hold meetings
during the period of the builders convention.
The associations are all intimately related to
each other, members of one belonging to one
or more of the others in many cases. The
scope of the builders association is much wider
than would naturally be suppo,ed and en-
braces such questions as the preservation and
rehabilitation of forest lands. the permanent
Improvement of common roads, the adjustment
Of freight rates. the development OF a system of
technical training for carriage mechanics and a
carriage display at the world fair tina. will a.
tonish the universe. About GOO delegates are
in attendance. The convention was called to
order at J clock his morning by President
Frank Fl. Hooker of New Haven. Conn. The
reports Of the executive committee, secretary
and treasurer, treasurer of school fund and
committee ON roads and highways were
presented.

Meeting Of the Worlds Fair Board of Lady
Managers.

CHICAGO, Oct 25.-Such a lively scene Is sell
dom presented in meetings Of the gentler sex as
that which took place atlastevening' s meeting Of
the worlds fair board Of lady managers. Mrs.
Matilda b. Carse, one Of the most prominent
women on the board, arose to make few re-
marks and began by saying:
ladies, IN the ante-room have big roll
OF paper, containing the names of 276, 900 per-
sons, which l will present to the national COM
mission. THIS list Of names constitutes
a petition relative to Sunday closing, and
Mrs. Carse got no farther. An uproar
and q babel Of voices arose that was
deafening. Most Of the fair parliamentarians
sprang to their feet and confusion worse con-
founded was the result. The board became di-
v1ded into two parts, one in sympathy with
Mrs. Carse, the other opposed to her petition.
These were some Of the expressions heard above
the feminine din: "Give her a chance!" "Shut
upr'
"Oh, how dare you?'
Aren't you ashamed Of yourself?''
Why don't somebody keep order9" "Call
Poor Mrs. Chaseprlest Of North Carolina,
who held the chair at the time, hardly knew
what to do in this great emergency. She ham
mered frantically on the walnut table in front
OF her with her gavel, but she might just as
gates were concerned They either did not
hear it or did not heed it. And above all the
confusion the voice Of Mrs. Carse rose clear and
scornfui, as one who has . chip on the shoulder
that has not yet been knocked of.
Ladies'" she said with extreme hauteur.
II didn't intend to present this statement to
your most honorable board. l merely arose
to ask permission to be excused to present
these names to the national commission"
Then she marched out with her head erect,
her whole bearing breathing dignity and de-
fance, and was seen no more during the after
noon.
It was understood that the temperance ques-
ton was tackled on to Mrs. Carse's petition also
and that the board had good and sufficient rea-
sons for discussing neither Sunday closing nor
prohibition.

The Crime of st. Louis Junk Dealer r.
yealed After Many Months.

The Crime of a st. Louis Junk Dealer Re-
vealed After Many Months.
ST. Louis, Oct. 25.-Michael Pattaschinck
was arrested yesterday at Mineral Point, charged
with a terrible murder committed in this city
nearly year ago. at which time he was q junk
dealer here. The arrest was made on informa-
ton furnished by Louis New, boy who was
employed by Pa,taschinck at the time, and who
slep, in a loft over the junk shop
According to the boy the crime was COM
mitted on the night of December % last. He
retired that night usual, but during the
night or early in the morning he was awakened
By voices down stairs, and looking through a
crack in the floor, he saw his employer talking
10 o stranger. After awhile. and in response to
a question to whether he had any money, the
stranger drew from his pocket a small bag illed
with gold. The Others eye giistened with greed
at the sight of the strangers wealth and he
asked the stranger, who was evidently intox-
icated. to send for some beer. This was gotten
and the two drank il. The stranger seemed to
be getting under the influence of liquor more
and more every minute and finally dropped
into Q stupor.
Pa.tasehinck. says New, was watching the
man closely all the while, and when he seemed
satisfied that the man was in y sound sleep he
drew q keen-edged pocket knife. Then he
went cautiously to where the stranger was lying
and, gently raising his head until the neck was
drawn, he drew the knife across the man
| throat, cutting il from ear to ear. The stranger
jumped to his feet with gurgiing cry and,
after turning around once or twice and clutch
ing at his throat, fell to the floor face down
ward. Psttaschinck then robbed the dead man
OF his gold. went TO his stable and hitched up
his horse and wagon and. putting the body into
the vehicle, he drove to the river, into which he
threw the corpse. New says he followed his
employer ut distance and saw him make this
disposal OF the body. He states that he has
been afraid TO tell the story Of the crime until
now, a. he feared Pxttaschinck.
