STRUCK 4 NINE IN a CITY IoH
A Rich Deposit of Cinnabar intno IIeart
of San Francisco.


John w. Mccarthy paid A. B. Mccreery
$4,000 for the lot on the southeast cornes
Of McAllister and Deyisadero streets.
II was his intention TO erect a row OF
buildings on the site. and with that end
in view he commissioned Owen McKugh
10 grade It and construct a brick foundas
ton for him.
The men had been grading away for a
rev weeks or so when they struck q hard
clayey substance that contained n large
amount OF rock Of a crystallized form.
A foot below this a stratum OF hard red
rock vas found. These circumstances
attracted no attention until about week
ago, when one Of the laborers who had
worked In the mines, noticing the weight
OF the substance, examined IL closely, and
Immediately recognized it as cinnabar.
He sraightway made his discovery known
10 McHugh, who i'm turn notified Me-
Carthy. The latter took several pieces OF
the ore To a mining expert and had them
tested. The result was so hattering that
he Immediately decided TO forego his
determination to erect the row Of fats.
Several experts have valued the ore so
far mined at from 500 TO 500 ton.
Since the discovery OF the deposits
has been made known hundreds OF Curl
Gus visitors have visited the vicinity,
among them many old and experienced
quicksilver miners. who all agree that the
find is an exceptionally rich one +. r.
Hook, who for many years has been SUI
perintending mines throughout this State,
Arizona, and New Mexico, said that tho
specimens submitted to him were the
richest he had ever seen.
Mr.. Mccarthy Is trimming over with
good nature and humor on account Of
the streak Of luck I'm which he is appar-
entity playing. He has been approached
by scores OF confidence men, who are
endeavorlng TO have him form stock COM
panies TO work the mine. but TO all he
has turned a deaf ear. lie has sufficient
money himself TO work IL for all IL is
worth, and he is willing 10 run any and all
risks that may be incurred. BY this
evening he expects 20 have the lot sur
rounded by a fence ten feet high. and
Monday morning a party Of experienced
men will proceed to sink a shaft-San

Professional PoIsoners in IndIa.

A band Of prisoners is believed 10 be at

Der Of deaths in carriages among the
native third-clasS passengers travelling

thorities TO the police. who dispose OF
them as eXpeditiously as possible. In
most cases there is little or no property
found on the bodies, not even railway
tickets, and generally they are found I'm
an empty carriage. These facts do not
appear to have awakened the suspicious
OF the police. or perhaps they have re-
cognized their Incompetence TO prevent
or dtect such crimes. As, however the
native passengers contribute over ninety
per cent Of coaching receipts. il Is time
some efforts were made 10 protect their
lives and property-Bombay Gazette.

The spot selected in Hollywood by Mrs

Of this sub-plateau Mr.. Davis will be

Running THE OLD RoMANcE orr.
Radical Naval Changes That are Taking all
the Poetry Out Of Life Ahoat.

The advent Of steam and steel engines
and electricity, to the navy has robbed the
life Of a man-of-war s-man Of much OF
the rCmaLce which clings 10 it for CEN
turtles. and scarcely q month now passes
without the Introduction Of some new
custom or the modification or abolition
Of some old one for the purpose OF adapting
TIE routine OF a war-ship TO altered con-
0itiOns.
The latest change is one OF the most
radical Of all, and calculated TO give
rude blow 10 the conservative old salts
who have maintained that the service
has been going steady 10 the dogs since
the removal Of sails, smooth bores, and
boarding spikes. II is no less a reform than
the abolition Of the time-hOnOred custom
OF dividing the ships company into two
equal watches, the starbOard and the
port. one of which had always i'm the
past, 20 be on deck at sea, pursuant 10
the watch and watch" system, which
gave the jack tar four hours of rest alter
mating with four OF watch.
In the old days Of sails IL was quite
necessary 10 have half the crew standing
by at all times in readiness 10 lay aft
the braces, to reef tOpsails 20 shorten
or make sail. But we have changed all
that. and the Navy Department now pro-
poses another system. The huge ma
chlnery, with its pOnderous boilers and
powerful engines Is now the motive
force. and the deck force has little 10
DO when under way beyond the hosting
out Of ashes, keeping a lookout, and pre-
serving cleanliness. Were Il not Tor the
mannina, OF guns the deck force required
on a modern war-ship would hardly eX-
coed one-tenth OF the number formerly
maintained. The ancient sleep-prevent-
ing practice Of keeping a hundred or
more men on deck at all times is accord
ingly an anachronism.
SO il is now proposed TO divide the
crew into four instead OF two parts.
and but one OF these quarter watches,
perhaps but half quarter watch. will
be kept on deck under ordinary condi-
lions at sea. These four equal divisions
will be based upon the disposition of the

day morning. preparations for impressive
ceremonies are being made. Here the in

setting surrounding the picture.
