POINTERS FROM THE BAY.

A Gossipy Letter from Tammauy Full OF
Local Interest.
Special correspondence to the HERALD.
SAN Francisco, Aug. 1O.-Superin-
tendent of the Mint Daggett is making
his appointments, so far they are
mostly from tho country, and If Mr..
Daggett is quoted correctly, they will
continue to be until the places are all
filed. 1t is currently reported in politi-
cal circles that the head of the mint
desires to don the senatorial ermine two
years hence, and in furthsrsnce of this
object he is giving the hold-over sena-
tors the privilege Of naming some OF the
best places in the mint.
Senators Ames and Mitchell have
avsiled Themselves of the opportunity to
secure places for themselves, while
Senator Dunn il reported as having
named man for place. all OF which
tends to show that the rumor of Mr..
Daggett's ambition is not without foun-
dation.
The calling OF a special session of the
legislature will be hailed with delight by
the members of that body residing in
this city who, since the adjournment
last March, have not been doing as we'll
as they had hoped. The majority of
them had based their hopes of reward
on their fidelity to Senator White, but
with the exception of Assemblymen
Hurley who received the appointment OF
night watchman at the custom house ct
salary Of $40 per month. they are
doomed to disappointment. The ma
jority of the San Francisco delegation to
the last legislature may be seen any day

A Word to the Busy Women.

In paper on Vacations q woman sug-
gestively says: "The fashionable sin Of
today among women, whatever it may
be, is not idleness. To q student from
Norton or South Hadley, Wellesley or
Smith, idlenees is simply an impossible
ity. Ii years of thorough methodical,
intellectual training have not formed
habits and tastes for work, they have
resulted in nothing.
"The lazy woman in wrapper, yawn-
ing half day over o novel, may still
exist in storiee. Out of them she 10 not
often found. The realty and contrast is
trinity dressed, quick stepping little
lady, calling early at the butchers and
grocer's, considering the economies OF
peefsteak and strawberries, preparing
the custard and salad dressing, encour-
aging Bridget to be neat and akilltul by
precept and example-and this only as
beginning to the busy day which she
eets for herself"
It is due to the woman of today that
her ail-round capability should be men
toned. There was a time when, If she
were @ good housekeeper, she was
nothing else, or If she pinned her laurels
to charitable work her family was
slighted. The end of the century wo-
man is skilled in many things and ex-
pert in ct least one.
The writer of the paper goes on to
sound note of warning against women
becoming busy, bustling, anxious,
creatures, whose liveH are marred if not
wasted by sort of oysrproductiveness.
They" she says, "should read the lesson
Of the lotus tree. They should even
stand beside the peaceful-eyed COW, and
mark how she chews the cud of gentle
reflections" and 80 on.
In many ways the hint of reaction is
obvious in the magnificent squirt woman
has taken. She is willing to listen, in
the gospel of progress to which she
hearkens diligently, to an occasionsl
sermon on the text, Make Haste Slowly"

THE MAMMorM NINE.
A New Proosss Of AmaleamAtion-Th
Prospects.

A New Proosss Of Anal gam Ation-Ths
Prospects.
When the recent shutdown OF the
Mammoth was made it was by many At
tributed to the cave-in, remarks the
Tucson Citizen Of last Saturday, which
was supposed to have increased expenses
In handling.
Such was not the case. The shut
down was intended some time ahead,
and was made for the purpose OF reor-
ganizstion. One of the objects OF the
new organization is enlargement, to in
clude the Collins group OF mines, owned
by r. N. Fletcher, the original possessor
OF the Mammoth.
A series of experiments has been made
at the mine since the shutdown, by o
new amalgamating processes, the Clark
q Raber's. This was more than sue
cessful. The ore was worked by five
stamps OF the mill, and some OF it was
more rebellious than tho average ore OF
the Mammoth. Nevertheless the gold
was extracted, leaving very small per
centum. The figures are OF course with
held. What the real returns Of the
Mammoth have been for years have
probably been known to few beside the
superintendent, assistant and stock.
holders.
The CLARK & Raber process has been
found likewise highly satisfactory on
the tsilings. These will be worked, and,
in the total to immense profit. The
amount of tailings piled up these is inn
mense. They have been saved for the
last four or five years, and counting 100
tons day for that period would we'll
demonstrate how great an amount q
few dollars ton would result in.
Something of the value OF the new
process may be judged from the fact
that Superintendent Johnston resigned
to take charge ,ef the Clark & Raber
concern.
Harry Barnhart, former assistant su-
perintendent succeeds Capt. Johnston.
Mr.. Barnhart ia quoted % expressing
the opinion that the Mammoth 10 one
of the greatest gold mines in the world.
Certainly nothing like ite limits have
been found. The late cave.in, ss Is we'll
known, developed large new body Of
ore.
The Collins group, which will prob.
ably be included in the new manage
ment, has ore bodies of precisely the
same nature OF the Mammoth.
When the new management gets un.
der way, the Mammoth will be worked
on much larger scale that at present.
One hundred to $50 stamps will be put
in. The mill may be on q new site.
Either water will be brought to the
present site from the river or rail-
road threee miles long will be built to
the river.
The last expert reported in favor Of
the railroad. The company have an
excellent mill site located at the river.
As the company is part American and
part English, arrangements can be made
but slowly. Therefore it will be some
time defore the mill is again pounding
out the gold at Mammoth.

TERRIBLE FIRE IN DETROIT.
Edison, Moore & Co.'s Mammoth Dry
Goods House Burned.


The worst fire Detroit has ever known
broke out in Edison, Moore Il Co.'s dry goods
establishment yesterday afternoon at one
o'clock. Almost as soon as it was known,
the whole upper pant of the building was on
fire and the nature Of the contents of the
building was such that as expressed by one,
il was more like slow explosion than fire.
The building was completely Quilted within
a half hour from the start.
BY hard work on the part Of the firemen
the surrounding property was saved. The
loss is about 100000 with S550,000 insur-
ance.
The worst feature, however, was the ter
rible loss of life, seven employees having
met their death. Two of these, Bradley A.
Dunning and James Mckay, were killed by
dropping from the fifth story to the Street,
while the other five were burned to death.
Their names are. Ed. N. Viot, Ed Genther,
Patrick j. Markey, Henry w. Rider and
Daniel A. Baker.

Scarlet Glover.

Scarlet clover, Trifolium incarnatum,
is a plant which may possibly prove of
great value in Illinois, more probably in
the southern than in the central or north
ern parts of the state, and more probably
on comparatively poor than on rich Soils
says G. II. Marrows, director Illinois Elk
pertinent Station. 1t is considered val
liable in some southern states, is especi-
ally well spoken of in Delaware and New
Jersey, and has been successfully tried
even in New England
1t is an annual plant, 1t grows from
the seed each year and dies after ripen-
ing its seed. 1t is usually sown in July or
August; sometimes in the spring. In this
case it should be pastured in the fall. 1t
is claimed to do well on some very poor
soils, either sandy or compact, or worn
OUT clay soils. 1t is used chiefly as
crop for improving the soil, but also for
winter or early spring pasturage,
for cutting and feeding when green,
for use as ensilage, or as hay.
The largest acreage sOwn as yet,
the soil. It is especially recommended for
use in orchards. 1t is sown in these after
the last cultivation 1t is often sOwn in
standing corn after the last cultivation,
except that it is sometimes narrowed in.
1t has been successfully grown on wheat
or oat stubble. Sometimes buckwheat or
millet is soon with it. In the south it is
sometimes sown with COW peas. From
five to fifteen pounds of seed are sown per
acre. The seed can be obtained from
almost any reputable seedman. Tn small
quantities, it will probably cost twelve to
fifteen cents per pound The value Of the
plant for Illinois and best methods of
Uultivating the crop are very unsettled
questions. The agricultural experiment
station will have tests made at different
places in the state, and it is suggested
that there is sufficient prospect of the
crop proving valuable to make trials
worth while, especially on soils on which
red clover does not do well
