THE MILLER'S PLEA.
1t Was So FIatterinE That 1t Silenced
 Frederick the Great.

1t Was So FIAtterinE That 1t Snenced
 Frederick the Great.
 When Frederick built his famous pal ace of Sans Souci, there happened to b ca mill which greatly hampered him in the execution of his plans, and he asked the miller for how much he would sell 1t. The miller replied that for a long series of years his family had owned the mill, which had passed from father to son, and that he would not sell it for any price. The king used every solici- tation, offered to build him a mill in a better place, and pay him besides any sum he might demand; but the obsti- nate miller still persisted in his deter mination to preserve the inheritance of his ancestors.
 Irritated at last by his conduct, the king sent for him, and said, in an angry tone: "Why do you refuse to sell your mill, notwithstanding all the advan. tages have offered you2"
 The miller'repeated his reasons"
 "Do.you know," continued the king, ''that could take it without giving you penny2"
 "Yes," rejoined the miller, calmly; eff 1t were not for the chamber of justice at Berlin"
 The king was so flattered by this an swer, which showed that he was inca pablo of an act of injustice, that he dis. missed the miller without further en. treaty, and changed the plan of his gar den.-Wide Awake.

DANGEROUS RAINoRoPS.
Conditions in Which They Would En-
 danger Human Life.

Conditions in Which They Would En-
 danger Human Life.
 Of course we all know that it would be an utter impossibility for storm clouds to form and rain to fall were it not for the forty odd miles of atmosphere that rises above our heads. But, supposing it were possible for hu- man beings to exist in an atmosphere that only rose to level with their mouths, and that storm clouds could form in the region outside such low grade atmosphere, then every raindrop would prove as fatal to earthly crea- lures as if it were steel bullet fired from dynamite gun.
 All falling bodies, whether they be crystal raindrops or meteorites, fall with what philosophers term "a uni form accelerated motion;" in other words, if body be moving at a certain velocity at the expiration of one second from the beginning of it's fall, it will be moving with twice that velocity at the expiration of two seconds, gaining in speed at a uniform rate throughout the whole course of its fall.
 Careful experiments have shown that the rate at which body acquires veloc- ity in falling through the air is thirty. two feet per second at the end of the first second from starting. At the end of the next second it is going at the rate of sixty-four feet per second, and so or through the whole time of falling. Where the velocity is known the space through which the body has fallen may be ascertained by multiplying the veloc ity at that period by the number of sec onds during which 1t has been falling and dividing the result by two.
 This rule applies, however, only tc bodies falling through a vacuum. The resistance of our atmosphere materially retards raindrops, hailstones, aerolite' and all other bodies which fall through it, and were it not for the resistance il presents every rainstorm would be dis astrous to the human race, as each droI would fall with velocity great enougl to penetrate the full length of a man. body.-Golden Days.

MAZAS PRISON.
Description of the Jail in Which the Pan'
 anna Criminals Were Locked.

Description of tho Jail in Which the Pan>
 anna Criminals Were Looked.
 "Mazas prison, in which the French Panamaters are incarceratcd," said P. G. IFousc, of Philadelphia, to a repre- sentative of the St. Louis Globe-Demo crat, "is one of the meanest and dreari- est on tho face of the earth. Each cell Is about eleven feet long by six and one half wide and less than nine high. The walls arc dirty yellow, and the only light is admitted through a small pane of roughed glass. The prison is cold, and q prisoner needs to wear an over coat there all the time at this season. It was of cell in Mazas that Victor Hugo, who was one of the first to en- joy the hospitality of this prison, said that 'one's first impression is the dark ness, ones second the cold Each cell is fitted with a small table, a stool. which is chained to the wall, a ham, mock bed and a small quantity of tin plate utensils.
 ''The hours in force at Mazas are as follows: At seven o'clock the bell rings for prisoners to rise. Half an hour later a warden opens the cell door, by which time the prisoner must have swept his cell, folded up his hammock and be ready for inspection. The warden hands him his loaf of bread and fills his jug with his daily allowance of water. At eight o'clock his first meal of vegetable
 soup is served, meat soup being only al lowed on Sundays and holidays Al
 three o'clock the second and last meal of the day is served to the prisoners. Ii consists of Q gamelle of beans or lentils
 meat being given only twice week
 At eight o'clock the bell warns pris oners to get their cells. ready for the night, and at ten o'clock all lights arc put out.
 "Each prisoner is allowed to exercise himself for three-quarters of an houl every day in small yard or passage which lies between high walls with iroI grating at either end. During his exer else he is under the constant surveil lance of a warden and can neither SC, nor communicate with any other being
 The rest of his time he spends in hi cell, where he may work for the prisou contractors or for his own amusement as he chooses. By working all day a stitching copybooks together, making slippers or brushes, he Is able to carr about four pence, which he can spen' with the cantiniere for win ordinaire, cot fee, garlic or tobacco. Prisoners wh' can afford may order meals from a res taurant, but these arc limited in quan tity to one plate of soup, plate of nea and vegetables and one dessert" -

REWARDS STILL GOOD.
The Captors of Sontag Will Receive
Five Thousand Dollars.

Last September the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company and Wells. Fargo &,
Co. announced TO the public that they
would jointly pay $4,000 or $4,000 each for
the arrest of Evans and Son,ag the Tulare
murderers. 1t was stipulated that the out
laws should be delivered to one of the San
Joaquin sheriffs.
1t has been rumored that the offer of re-
ward had been withdrawn, but such is OF
the case. E. M. Cooper. general superin-
tendent of Wells. Fargo 81 Co., stated yes
terdav that their offer was still in force
and the companies will take pleasure in
paying the money when the conditions of
the offer ire complied with.
The offer does net state whether the men
must be delivered alive, and in the event
of their being killed some of the officers
have been doubtful about securing the
reward. This feeling has no doubt caused
them to avoid killing the bandits, prefer
ring to await an opportunity to capture
them alive.
In the case of Sontag there will be no
question about the reward, and each of his
five captors will receive $1,000 for their
services.

LAST OF THE OMAHA.
The Old Boat to End Her DAYS
in Quarantine.
She VIII Be Moored at the Angel
Island Station for the Marine
Hospital Service.
Special to THE MoRN1Na CALL.

VALLEJO, June 12.-Another of the CID
wooden warships now occupying berth
in Rotten Row at the Mare Island Navy
yard has been detached, the commandant
of the navy-yard having received official
notification that the Omaha has been trans
ferred from the navy to the Treasury De-
partment. The instructions received direct
that the commandant of the Mare Island
Navy-yard turn the Omaha over To the
Marine Hospital service at San Francisco
and render such assistance as NAV he
necessary for tie safe removal of the
Omaha from Mare Island to Angel Island
where she will be utilized as a Quarantine
ship.
In accordance with the instructions a
representative of the Marine Hospital
service visited the navy-yard, surveying
the Omaha and preparing plans and specif-
cations Of the changes necessary to lit her
for the quarantine service. These plans
have been forwarded to Washington for
approval. Of the changes necessary it is
specified that the spar deck be housed over,
the same as the Independence, and that
the present berth deck be remodeed suit
able for the accommodation of cabin pas
sengers.
To your correspondent the representa-
tive of the hospital service stated that the
berth deck would be fitted with fifty state
rooms and other accommodations neces-
sary for the comfort of cabin passengers
transferred from infected steamers. Be-
fore being turned over to the Treasury
Department the Omaha will be moored
alongside the nayy-yard quay wall and the
greater part of her machinery removed.
The cabin will be fitted up for surgeons
quarters and made ready for occupancy.
An effort will be made to have the neres-
sary changes made at the navy-yard.
though this is thought 10 BE- impossible.
As soon as she is ready the Omaha will
be towed to Angel Island, where she Will
be moored alongside the present quaran-
tine station wharf 1t is considered more
than probable that the Ir0Quois, which Is
mOored alongside and dashed to the Omaha
in Rotten Row, will be the next of the old
timers to go into the quarantine service.
and thnther destination will be San Diego.
