BURNING FORESTS.
rIarin County Residents
Alarmed.
The Flames Are Brought Into SUBJ
lection Before Any Serious
Damage Is Inflicted.

The forest fire in the hills west Of San
Rafael, mention of which was made in
The CALLS dispatches yesterday. caused
no small amount of anxiety to the residents
in that vicinity, who recalled the desiruc-
tive fire of two years ago. which burned
for more than two weeks and left behind
it thousands OF acres brown and desolate.
When the alarm was given on Wednes-
day a repetition Of those scenes was
feared, and from all the countryside help
came in abundance and one nights hard
work served to check the flames.
The fire is supposed to have been started
by lighted cigar or cigarette which some
person had careleSsly thrown by the road
side. and which Immediately ignited he

discovered it was burning tuIiously on the
Porteous ranch.
From there it spread to the adjoin-
ing johnson and Lezzini ranches and then
jumped across the Bollnas road aud was
soon making in Dads on the reserve of the
Marin County Wafer Company.
By this time, however. a campaign had
been inaugurated against 1t, and while de-

subdued, and when yesterday mornings
sun rose over the hills only a smoking
stump was left here and there where few
hours before the midnight sky had been
made livid by the reflection OF the flames.
The district burned over was about three
miles long and two miles In width and con-
tanned about $3.50 acres.
The land was mostly pasture land, part
of il being covered with brush and some
also by forests.

HIS WIFE ABSCONDED.
A DiscOnsOIate Celestial Tells a Tale
of Woe,

of Woe.
A prosperous looking Chinese named
Lee Juck Chum, who halls from Santa
Rosa. called at the marriage license office
Yesterday and told pitiful tale to Cupid
Haley. The tale was one of matrimonial
infelicity. Lee Juck said he had married
a young Chinese in this city four years
ago. Her name was Jun Sui. and she was
as pretty as any maiden who ever left the
Celestial Kingdom. Lee Juck took her to
Santa Rosa and the couple lived very
happily until recently, when one of his
countrymen appeared on the scene and
began to make love to his wife.
About week ago his wife and the
stranger disappeared from Santa Rosa
She took with her all the jewelry of the
household aud considerable coin, the re-
suit of Lee Juck's toll.
When Lee Juck found he had been de-
serted by his better half he hurried 10 this
city. but has thus far been unable to find
any trace OF the runaway couple.
Lee Juck supposed that the guilty pair
might GO to the marriage license office IT,
get a license. so he repaired there and
found that they had not done so
Lee Juck was much disappointed when
he discovered this. but left picture Of his
wife with Cupid Haley and asked him if
she appeared there to have her appre-
hended.
The picture represents very handsome
Chinese woman. and any BODY who saw the
likeness ould not blame Lee Juck for
pursuing his wife.

Next season,s Colors.


French color cards for the winter Of SO,
shown by buyers for the large millinery
houses, give most prominence to q series
of luminous blue shades in which there is
much green. These are somewhat like
the peacock and lophophore shades, and
are very different from the clear blue the
young Duchess OF York has shown such
liking for in her trousseau gowns. One
pale blue shade with an electric cast is
called Loie Fuller, another of deeper
shade is marked lumineux, and third is
hbeiiule, or dragonfiy blue. The next Sc
ries of colors is of the pinkish purple tinus
beginning with Bengale and Aubusson
pink, and deepening to the aubergine and
dahlia shades SO long i n favor. Six brown
shades beginning with beige, take on
more yellow and deeper tones, such as
tabac, mordore and loutre, and to these
are added maroon or chestnut with its
reddish tinge. There are two distinct
sets of green tints, one OF the clear old
Russian shades, the others with great
deal of yellow in them. The pretty mauve
and Ophelia tints are repeated, also bish-
ops purple, and very red purple which
the French call Henri ii. Some rose
colors and dark red shades are shown. but
none are particularly new. The grays
retain the metallic hues of last season.
