BEET-SUGAR INDUSTRY.
The Repeal OF the Mckinley Bill
Means It's Death

Since the Mckinley bill came into effect
the beet-sugar industry In this State has
made remarkable strides. Prospects have
never been brighter nor the returns TO the
farmers so good as they are at the present
time.
There are three beet-sugar refneries in
California-one at .Aivarado, one at Chino
and one at Watsonvlle-and each is doing
splendid business.
The growing Of beets by the farmers has,
as a consequence, been spreading rapidly,
as they have found it to be most profitable
source of revenue. BY careful and intelli-
gent cultivation many of them have been
able to net in cash $50 per acre as compared
with S11 per acre for barley growing
In 1890 the average yield of beets per
acre throughout the State was seven tons I;
in the following year the result was much
about the same; but this year, owing in a
large measure TO the introduction of new
and improved machinery, thereby lessening
the labor on the beet farms, the yield has
averaged fourteen tons and over to the acre
A. b Spreckels of }. d. Spreckels Il Bros.

"The beei-sugar business has quadrupled
| since the operation of the Mckinley bill,
! and 1t would go on increasing in volume if
| no interference took place in the present
order OF things
! Capitalists would not be- so foolish as to
| invest their money in an industry with

"The repeal of the Mckinley bill would
| also mean serious setback to the farmers
of the State who have been growing beets

erS in Nevada aud Nebraska have also gone
| into the cultivation of bcets successfully,
| and they will also suffer.
| "We are interested In the jacksonville re-
Emery, and IL takes SIS, 600 year to run it,
so you can understand how important this
industry has become. We rented 1000 acres
OF land and putin beets and the results soon

| nifty farmers around jacksonville and Sa-
! linas who grow beets exclusively, In 1891
| $4,000 tons Of beets were grown and sold TO
| US, while this year the amount will be
| nearly four times as much.

The trial OF NJ. B. Curtis, the actor. we'll

AN ANGLERS BAD LUCK.
DIR. Dean Will Not Go Fishing Again for
Some Time

Local sportsmen will regret TO learn that
Dr. Dean. welEknown angler, is laid up
with two broken ribs and badly damaged
head.
The doctor was riding into town last Fri
day on the San Mateo Electric Company's
line, and when the car on which he was
passenger arrived at Harrison and Third
streets. the conductor stopped it suddenly
to escape a collision with runaway team.
The doctor, who was seated in the front
OF the car. got pitched out. landing heavily
on the cObbles.
Although his injuries are painful, he con-
siders that he escaped fortunately from
what might have been fatal accident.
The report that shooting on the Point
Reyes marshes was prohibited this year
has no foundation Of truth. DR.. Burdell Of
notices posted on the lands this year pur-
posely to keen off young boys who had been
caught breaking fences aud shooting reck-
lessly where cattle were feeding.
A. Hall. the lessee of the land, states that
any sportsman from the city who is DESTROYS
OF few days shooting, either at quail or
duck. will be given permission by making
application 10 him.
There Is quite a number of ducks on
Tomales Bay at present that will afford
sportsmen good shooting when driven to
the marshes for shelter by the first good

The gamekeepers Of the Country Club
furnish few OF the members of the club
weekly with several dozen quail which
sportsmen delight to hold up in full view of
their friends on the return trip to this city

OF course the polished sportsman who
haDdles the string OF game takes as much
delight In reciting how he shot them as he
does IN exhibiting them for inspection. II
Is seldom, indeed. that a country club quail
shot has been heard to say what a beautiful
pot-shot he made when no one was near Ia
see the slaughter. Club sportsmen never
think OF shooting at birds on the ground oil
water; because it is thoroughly unsports-
manlike.

FRAUDULENT COLLECTING.
An Ex-Communicant ApprOpriates the
Money He Raises.


The Church of ST. Mary the Virgin. ct
the corner of Steiner and Union streets, has
been the victim for the past six months of
one of the cleverest and most daring frauds
ever perpetrated on a religious body in this
city.
About a year ago a member OF the con-
creation, whose standing had always been
thought above question, was discovered re-
serving certain moneys he had collected.
The case was taken up by the vestrymen of
the church, and an examination disclosed a
wholesale steal on the part or the mem Der,
who had been living In royal style on the
money he had solicited for the church. The
erring collector was at once expelled, and

from being the case. In April last the con-
gregation of ST. Mary the Virgin decided to
take steps toward the erection of more
suitable church building, and issued q call
for money. There was the coveted oppor-
tunity for the ex-communicant to square up

William Macdonald. lately seaman on
board the American bark Andrew Hicks,
has filed In the United States District Court
a complaint against the master, George

for $500 damages for brutal treatment.
The libel AYERS that Captain Donaldson vic.
lently kicked Macdonald on the body while
he was in irons on December 10, 1891; that
on the same day he also triced him up by
passing rope through some handouts that
were on his wrists, pulling 1t up over his
head so that MacDonald's feet barely
touched the deck. In this position. Macdonald
makes oath, he was kept Tor seven hours and
forty minutes. 1t is also averred that Oh
July 6. 1892, the captain kept him confined
in irons in the run of the vessel, dark
place, for six days and struck him on the
head cutting his forehead. This is the sec
ond suit brought against the captain for
