A SAILOR BOYS FORTUNE.

from Beggary In California to a Snug Com
petence In England.
Thomas Stone, an 18-year-old English
sailor, who has been living hand to
mouth existence in Oakland for several
months, has fallen heir to the estate of
his father, valued at oyer e32, 200.
1t was an early hour on stormy
morning last March when bedraggled
and wornout young man applied at the
home of Michael Rigney, 215 Seventh
street, for meal. He told straight
forward story about deserving his ship
in the bay the day before and said he
had slept under the Eighth street bridge
all night. Mr.. Rigney took compassion
on the desolate sailor and supplied him
with food and warm clothing. AS
Stone proved willing to work and there
was a good deal of labor to be perform
ed about the place, Mr.. Rigney permit
ted him to remain, and since then he
has made the Rigney home his head
quarters.
During his leisure hours Stone spent
his time instructing young son of the
Rigneys in the trade of boat building.
In a lot adjoining the house he estab-
hshed a miniature shipyard, with era
die, blocks and ways, and there he built
a full size steam launch, which lacks
nothing but an engine to make it COM
plete. The tale the stranger told was
about as follows: Five years ago he was
a schoolboy in England and had pen-
chant for reading tales of adventure.
His reading made him so long for travel
that he ran away and went to sea.
When he came home, his father took
him to Liverpool and bound him over
to a sea captain for a voyage to and
from Australia. He was signed for two
years, but long before the voyage had
been finished the boys dreams had been
dispelled, and he had determined to de-
sert. When the vessel reached San
Francisco on the homeward voyage, he
accordingly got ashore and staid there.
He was penniless, hence his application
for charity at the home of the Rigneys.
During the voyage from England to
Australia the sailors father died, leav
ing him fortune of more than $780,
900. But the news to this effect came
only very recently.
Young Stone wrote from Oakland to
his father several times, but received
no response, SO when Walter Seawell,
an Oakland contractor, left for visit
to England few months ago, he was
commissioned by the young man to hunt
up his father and see why he failed to
respond to the communications address,
ed to him. Mr.. Seawell found that the
elder Stone was dead and notified the
son of this fact and Of the further fact
that he was no longer poor. The news
has since been confirmed by the British
consul of San Francisco, who advanced
young Stone the necessary coin to en-
able him to return to his English home.

President Cleveland in his message

President Cleveland in his message
says, in substance, regarding the dis,
tribution of seed by the agricultural
department, that from an appropria-
ton of 81, 900 in 1887, for the purpose
of collecting rare and improved va
rieties of seeds, the sum has increased
until the enormous sum of $135,0O0
was used during the past fiscal year
in the purchase and distribution of
seeds. The seeds were purchased
from seed men all over the country
and distributed by the department.
The cost last year for seeds was $685.
548.61, and the remainder of the
1880 appropriated was expended
in putting up and distributing the
nine million packages of seeds. As
there has been over 100000 stricken
from the estimates the free distribu-
ton of seed mnst necessarily be
abolished.

First to receive consideration by
congress is the tariff revision measure,
and every means that can be used to
push the measure along will be re-
sorted to. The president having virtu-
ally approved of the Wilson tariff bill,
the party leaders will leave no
stone unturned to secure its passage.
If republicans hope to see dissentions
and dissatisfaction among the demo
Gratis in the house over the bill, and
expect the measure will meet delay
and defeat, they are mistaken. The
democrats are going to pass the bill
at all costs, and stick together as they
always have done.

The defeat of the Torrey bankrupt
cy bill in congress is great surprise
to all who have any knowledge of the
condition of the business interests of
the country. The necessity for some
uniform national bankruptcy law is
generally conceded, and as the Torrey
bill seemed to meet the approval of
the great majority of business men,
its being ruthlessly slaughtered is
either an act of imbecility or one in
fuenced by some Interior motive. Of
course the congressman from this dis
trict helped to do the mischief.

1t is painful surprise that John S.

with Auditor Bierman, should by this

Chewing Gum.

Iasked a very famous physician the
other day if it was injurious to chew
gum-not that do it-and he answered;

'And how" inquired.
ITO chew gum for five or ten minutes
after meal is absolutely beneficial"
said he, especially for hasty eaters, who
do not half masticate their food, because
the action of the jaws causes the gastric
juices to flow, and that is good. But so
few people can use andnot abuse it. They
get the gum in their mouths and keep at
it till they fairly dry up the saliva sup
ply, bring on headache and get geneF-
ally nervous. This will cause indiges-

Manifold Photography.

A simple method Of photographing a
person in five different attitudes all at
once has been invented by New Jersey
photographer, by means of which the
same picture gives five different views Of
the sitter. This is accomplished by using
as background two plane mirrors, form
ing between them an angle of 45 degrees,
and placing the person at the junction.
The usefulness of such pictures will not
be confined to ordinary life, as they will
be most valuable in criminology and an
