A PEIuErs1tS DIa------
Prevalent Among Cattle in San Bernar-
dino County.


Prevalent Among Cattle in San Bernar-
dino County.
Dr.. Davidson, the we'll known veteri-
marian OF this city, reports a strange
complaint prevalent among the cattle of
this region. 1t ia disease of the bone,
best likened to ray fungus, which starts
ineide the bone and consumes it until
only thin shell is left. 1t generally
starts in the bones of the left shoulder,
gradually reaches other portions of the
body, and invariably terminates in
death, generally in from three to five
months. 1t is as fatal as glandere, and
supposed to be as contagious. 1t some
times attacks the flesh, but not fre-
quently. The horse is alec liable to the
etrange malady, but few cases have been
reported go far. 1t generally attacks
cattle pastured on heavy dark loan.
Last Sunday seven cattle belonging to
Gal Patton, which were suffering from
the peculiar complaint, had to be killed,
and other caees are reported. DR..
Davidson is making q study of the dis.
ease and sent some OF the bones Of
animals that died from the disease to
Los Angeles for microscopical examina-
tion.
The disease has excited great deal
of interest among stock-owners and
cattlemen. 1t is something new to
them, and they are at eea as to the best
method of guarding against it.-TSan

The Occidental Mine.

Anda Ssuser recently shipped car
load of ore to San Francisco from the
Occidental mine in Aqua Caliente dis
trict says the Bakersfield Californian.
and obtained yield of over 200 ounces
in silver and $50 in gold per ton.
Three tons Of the same ore were re-
Gently worked at the Rogers mill and
the results we're very satisfactory. 1t
was found that by crushing in Hunt
ington mill and concentrating, over 80
per cent of the value was saved.
Two shafts As feet apart have been
sunk each 20 feet and from the bottom
drifts are being run to connect, 80 far
in pay. The pay vein averages about
IS inches and altogether the indica-
tions are very hattering.
Mr.. Sausa has recently sold the mine
to San Francisco parties, who propose
to develope it extensively and will
probably soon erect mill.
Chris Moore is working ON an ex-
tension of the same vein, which he is
opening with shafts and tunnels, thus
far making an equally good showing
with the Occidental.

OUR NEW NAVY.

Four OF the largest Battle Ships Yet Built
in This Country.
The Examiner says that the launch of
the Massachusetts by the Cramps leaves
the Oregon at the Union iron works the
only one of the three battle ships
authorized by the fftv-frst congress
still on the stocks. The Cramps are
building the Indiana and Massachusetts,
and have launched them both. These
two vessels, when finished. will be able
to destroy all the ships OF our navy now
afloat. They are by far the largest ves-
sells ever launched in American waters.
The Cramps have the honor of having
launched the four largest ships ever
fioated in the western hemisphere,
namely, the Indiana, Massachusetts,
New York and Columbia. To these
they will shortly add five steamers for
the American line, of 10000 to $4,000
tons each, and three more war ships
OF the largest size, the Iowa, Brook
lyn and Minneapolis. This will
make twelve vessels from this
one yard, each larger than any
launched up to thie time anywhere else
in the new world. The smallest of the
IL is the Columbia, of 1850 tons. The
largest ship thus far launched in Amer
lea outside OF the Cramps yard ia the
Maine, OF 6648 tons, at the Brooklyn
navy yard, and the next largest is the
Texas, at $500 tons, at Norfolk. But
when the Union Iron works launch the
Oregon, OF 10000 tons, they will have
one ship afoat that will rank with the
greatest sent out by the Phjladelphisns.
AS soon as the reconstruction of the
American feet was fairly under way
our naval designers began to shower
novelties upon the world. Our guns
are now the finest in existence, we have
developed the newest wrinkles in range
finders and torpedoes, and the British
navy is to be protected wiah armor con-
structed by an American process. The
last congress- waa not very 0anarous in
its provision for new snIps, but the law
department succeeded in producing
some novelties, regardless OF its limited
opportunities.
Three gunboats, of 1900 tons eech,
were authorized at the last session.
Two of these are to be constructed on
the composite plan--the jrst departure
from the all-steel rule eince the work OF
rebuilding our navy began-and the en-
ginea of these two composite vessels are
to be the fret of the kind in the world.
A warahp has peculiar requirements in
the matter of engine power. 1t needs
high speed at rare intervals, and the
rest of the time it needs machinery that
will Jog along economically at moder-
ate gait. 1t has been found heretofore
that the engines of great power have
not been economical at ordinary speeds.
The bureau of engineering has set itself
to produce something that will, and it
thinks it has succeeded.

THERE seems 10 be very strange hap
penihgs in connection with the trial OF
Hesth and Policy, charged with the
murder OF Louis B. McWhirter, at
Fresno. The trial WAS set for yesterday,
but some of the principal witnesses for
the prosecution are found to be absent
from the state. DR.. O. V. p. Watson, a
very important witness, has disappeared.
He was to testify that he saw Heath and
his companion in the alley at the rear of
McWhirter's residence Immediately be-
fore the shooting took place, and it is
said that it was largely due to his evi.
dence that the grand jury found ths in
dictmente. Since he gave that tssti-
mony the DOCTORS house was destroyed
by TIRE during his temporary absence,
Last week he was subp@naed and was
requested to come to the district attor-
neys office on Monday last. He prom
ieed to do 30, but did not, and when a
messenger was cent for him it was dis
covered that he had left the state, pre-
sumsbly for Arizona or Texas. Being
outside California, he is now beyond the
jurisdiction OF the court. These mys
terious happenings and disappearances
look as if there we're powerful Influences
at work to secure mistrial OF the ac-
cused. The district attorney, however,
says that, though the testimony OF Wat
son and other of the absentees was ma
terial, he believes the people still have
evidence enough to make out a strong
case

A TERRIBLE rEMBLoR.
1t Is On the Bills with an October
Data.

1t Is On the Bills with an October
Date.
The San Francisco Chronicle of Mon.
day says: An eclipse of the sun which
will affect this country to considerable
extent has been arranged for October
9th at S:1s in the evening.
The astronomical phenomenon will be
visible on the western coast of South
America, Mexico and some portions OF
Canada, but it will not be necessary to
light the gas in this city on account Of
the eclipse. as 1t is generally lighted at
that hour.
Immediately after the sun has been
doused large and energetic earthquake
is billed to entertain the inhabitants of
the western hemisphere. According to
Frank Neidl it will be loo-loo.
Mr.. Neidl is a. modest professor of
astro-meteorology and astrology in this
city. When weary of studying astral
bodies and predicting things he invents
something useful. One favorite brand
of smokeless powder has been attrib-
uted to him, and he is now engaged in
trying to invent noiseless cobble-stone
for use in large cities.
Astralogy, however, ia Mr.. Neidl's
great hobby. By looking at the stars
and then referring to an almanac, inn
ported at great expense from Europe, he
can tell things that other people never
dreamed of. Still he gets nothing for it.
He does other peoples predicting for
them simply because he likes the work.
The eclipse, with the earthquake on.
the side, which he has arranged to come
off this fall, is going to be we'll worth
seeing. II not too tired Mr.. Neidl will
remain up himself to observe the phe-
nomena. immediately after the eclipse
the earth will begin to shiver like mold
of calves foot jelly, and also split open
in places.
Large islands that have long broken
the monotony of the Pacifc's watery
wastes will be swallowed up, but new
ones are expected in other places.
Gigantic tidal waves created by the up
heaval will break chunks off the edge OF
the United States and carry them out to
sea, never to be seen or heard of again.
People living along the coast should
take timely warning and move back into
the interior counties before October 8.
1898. OF course great loss of life will
attend the disturbance, but there is no
fear OF the earth being entirely de-
Mr.. Neidl says himself that
nature can never entirely exterminate
herself.
No matter how great the shock, there
would still remain few ragged edges OF
the earth to which those fortunate
enough to be in the vicinity could cling
until rescued. During Mr. Neid'ls seis-
mic disturbance the shocks will be
frequent, but he is prepared
for the worst.

THERE are sometimes cases in which
the law is frightfully abused. Yester-
day a young girl of Is, named Tina
Beegle, was arrested for forgery and
sent up to the county jail to await her
arraignment before Justice Bsrtholo-
new this morning, at 10 O'Clock. Her
crime ia alleged to have been the writ
ing OF an order on livery stable keeper
for buggy, and signing the nnme of
the complainant to it. The poor girl
says that the man who procured her ar
rest authorized her to sign his name if
ahe desired to do 30. She also adds that
he has tried to prostitute her, and that
the prosecution from which she so
cruelty suffers is the result of his enmity
at failing to accomplish his nefarious
ends. Whatsoever the facts of the csse
may be, the angels of heaven must weep
at the immurement in jail, with hard
ened criminals, of such mere child.
She is said to be the daughter of respect
able parents residing in Alhsmbra, and
her father is supposed to be at the point
of death from a stroke of paralysis at
hearing of her arrest and imprisonment.
And yet this is said to be Christian
country The story sounds like an echo
from barbaric laude.

Tho cedros Island Mine.

The San Diego Union says An amend
ed complaint was filed in the county
clerks Office yesterday in the case of
Joseph Goldthorpe VS.. the Cedros Island
Mining and Milling company. The
plaintiff succeeded to the interests of
Jones Anderson in the matter, and sues
for $1,000 alleged to be due in transac.
tion whereby the defendant became own
er of the mines on Cedros island and
which were discovered by Anderson on
March II, 1889, being subsequent sold
by him to the defendant for 10000.
The amended complaint also prays the
court that The Cedros Island company
be decreed to turn over to the plaintiff
one-third of said mine.

THE litigation which has followed on
the expiration of the time for registra-
ton allowed by the Geary act has GER
tainly had some interesting features. 1t
would naturally seem that law which
was plainly intended to have some pro-
nounced exclusive features ought to
have some operative effect. Nothing iu
more certain, however, than that the
word OF promise held out by this law
has not been kept to the ear, while it
has been greatly broken to the hope.
The Democratic party in the old days
incurred considerable unpopularity by
the enforcement of obnoxious laws, par
ticulsrly the Dred Scott decision. 1t
looks very much, just now, as If on this
coast particularly it is liable to suffer
some diminution of popularity by not
enforcing law of the United States
which was intended to bring the
Chinese evil within the power
of the federal authorities. AS to
the average sentiment OF the
people of the Pacific coast there can be
no doubt. 1t is in the line that the law
is just and ought to be enforced. That
was probably the opinion of the con-
gress that passed the law, of the presi-
dent who signed it and of the suprems
court that affirmed its constitutionalty.
Thus far the will of the Chinese Six
Companies is the supreme law of the
land.
