Blazing IN autgm nal glory
Do.gbe nils aboas u stand,
Rivaling The miirners' windows
In their e0loring SO grand.
Every itful gust that bleweth
Scaitreth showers Of golden leaves,
And the busy reapers ioiling
Bind the golden grain in sheaves.
Still the silverites keep talking,
.H With this wealth OF gold in view,
Conscious that their iOnged-for silence
Would prove very goIden, too.

potatoes, some with white flowers. 9TH

tubers also varied in color rs well as
In shape, some being round, others OBJ

in height, and the leaves quite small
and of grayish-green color, out the
whole plant resembles our cultivated
varieties so closely that there would be
no difficulty In recognizing IL as pota-
to, but of n diminutive type Later in
the season ] collected several hundred
of the tubers, come of which were dis
tributed among friends, others planted
in my garden, where they have since
received as much care as the cultivated
varieties, and occasionally more, for

in order to lengthen the growing sea-

eELL.RINoINo FISH.


Fish have many times been iatight 10 per

had much more int .ligenec than is attributed
to them. Mr.. janice A. Bailey of circus fame
once had two brook trout In a small aquarium
in his private residence that wou jump cut
of the water aud take file, held between tho
forehuger and thumb. and would also ring -
little bell when they required food. They
would also leap over little bars OF wool
placed about two inches above the surface OF
the water, says the New York Herald.
1t was very simple matter to teach tho
fish these ircks. At first little tower con-
tanning n tiny. sweet-toned bell was fastened
10 the iron work of the aquarium with II picc.
of string attached to the tongue OF the bel

were. On the loose end OF the string IN Ia

A Prominent Engineer Who Sue
ceeded.
Louis Napoleon Beauregard died at his
daughters home, 1417 Harrison street.
Tuesday, after an illness of some months.
His death was not unexpected for some
time past owing to his condition. which
was oreless toward the end. He lived at
43O Geary street until few months ago.
The last month of his residence at that
address was continued struggle with
him against the insidious disease which
had settled on his digestive organs. he
complained repeatedly of strange illness,
and at last when it overcame him Beaure-
gard removed to his daughters residence
on Harrison street, as her care was needed
then.
The deceased, though not man OF the
world in any sence or one to make him.
self known among men. was remark
able character in his own way. It is GER
tain he left his mark behind him In Cali
forna.
He was born in Burlington, Vt. of a
French family. At an early age he gave
evidence of exceptional talents. which
were even then directed IN the line of me-
clianics and engineering. While still a
young man he came 10 California and
identified himself with his chosen profess
sion. 1t was not long before he reached
the top of the ladder here, for he soon
afterward carried to successful compile
tion the largest engineering enterprises in
and around San Francisco.
Mr.. Beauregard built the Pacific Rolling
mills on the Potrer0, the Judson Iron
Works near Shell Mound on the railroad
to Berkeley. After completing the extern
sive works in the Potrero he became con-
nected with the foundry and machine
shops across the bay Up to the time of
his death he was superintendent of the
Judson works.
He was popular among large circle of
friends, who express sincere sorrow at his
loss.
Mr.. Beauregard was 81 years of age. He
will be buried at p. NJ Friday from the
home of Mrs. c. A. Douglas, 1417 Harrison
street. Interment will be in the Odd Eel

BOWERS TO BLAME.
Whites Name Coupled With a
False Announcement.
The Pacific Monopoly Has Not Lost
the Contract for Carrying
South Coast Mails.

SAN DIEGO, Oct 4-Mayor Carlson to-
day received a dispatch from Senator
White and Congressman Bowers stating
that the contract with the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company for carrying the South
Pacific Coast mails has been annulled and
adding that both the Postoffice Department
and the company desired the annulment.
A later dispatch came from Senator
White stating that he had just learned
that the contract had not been annulled.
1t is now charged that the entire story of
the annument of the contract originated
with the Pacific Mail Company. and Bow
ers is scored for taking his information
from ex parte sources instead of inquiring
at the Postofice Department. 1t is charged
that he induced White TO unite with him
in sending the erroneous dispatch. and
White, being deceived by him. allowed the
use of his name. Later inquiries ex-
posing the trick which had been played
on him White lost no time in correcting
the mistake. In conjunction with the dis
patch received from Senator Perkins it Is
now evident that. despite the statement to
the con trary. the contract with the Pacific
Mail has not been annulled and the depart
ment has no intention OF allowing it TO be
laid aside.
