Another Storm.

The signal service officer reported last
evening that another storm had appeared
and was central off the Washington coast
A portion of the storm. which had been
central there since Wednesday, had passed
eastward, while the remainder continued
west Of the Rocky Mountains and was
facilitating the developments of the one
which appeared last night. The influence
Of this storm extended southwark over
Northwestern California and eastward
over Washington and Oregon. The move
ment Of the storm eastward and the in
crease In the pressure over the central
coast of California led to the belief that
clearing and fair weather would prevail
over California and Nevada to-day. but
the appearance OF the storm will destroy
the idea, and in its place cloudy, weather
and rain will prevail over California north
Of the Seth degree north latitude.
Rain was falling last night over the
northern portion of California, with cloudy
weather over the greater portion of Cali
fornia, Nevada and Utah.
The temperature has fallen slightly save
| over the southern portion of California,
| where it has remained nearly stationary.
| The extent and duration of the storm
approaching last night could not be FORE
told, for it was but approaching; IL can be
| expected, however, to continue the cloudy
! and rainy weather for the next thirty six
hours, which has prevailed during the
past forty-eight hours, except In Southern
California and Arizona, where fair weather
will prevail to-day, with increasing cloudi-
ness in the afternoon.

A CLEVER SCHEME.
Opium Sent Through the
Mails.
Collector Wise Discovers q New
Method of Smuggling Being
Practiced by Chinese.

Collector Wise yesterday unearthed a
new scheme on the part of the Chinese to
smuggle opium into the city free IF du.y.
1t is the rule in the Postofice to turn all
suspicious-loo ooking packages from foreign
ports over TO the Collector for inspection.
Packages from domestic ports are not
subjected to this scrutiny. ana on this
knowledge the willy .Mongolians built
their scheme to defraud the Govern ment.
For some time past the Postoffice en-
ployes have noticed that an unusual num-
ber of registered packages from Portland,
Port Townsend, Tacoma and Seattle con-
signed to Chinese merchants were being
received at this Office. As the packages
were always of the same size
picions of the Postoffice authorities
were at last aroused On Thursday Post
master Backus sent two of these packages
to Collector Wise with an explanatory note
detailing the conditions under which they
had been received. The Collector opened
the packages and found that each one con-
tainej two nye-tael cans Of prepared
opium.
The matter was put into the hands of
Deputy Collector Ruddell for investiga-
tion, and be at once set on foot scheme
to catch the guilty parties. A carefully
worded postal-card was sent to the Chi
nese merchant to whom the opium was
consigned telling him that two pack
ages addressed to him awaited his call at
the Collectors office. The willy heather
evidently suspected trap, for be failed to
put in an appearance TO claim his goods.
Fearing that the Chinese would take fright
and secrete any cOntrabaDd goods he might
have in his store the Deputy Collector de-
tailed six men to raid the store at 813 Du-
pont street last evening.
The proprietor. QuoDg TAX. was in
when the officers arrived and was exceed
ingly indignant because he had been sus-
pected of smuggling. His Indignation did
not deter the officers from making a
thorough investigation of the premises,
and their search was rewarded by the dis
covery Of over a hundred cans of opium
slowed. about in different convenient hid.
| ing places. The cans were all done up in
packages of two each and remained for the
most part just as they had been received
| through the mail.
The raid will probably have the effect OF
| putting stop to this clever mode oi
| smuggling.

and reached well armed vessel that had
been sent him secretly by his agent In
France. In that ship he sailed to Boston
to enlist the Puritans in putting down n
common enemy.
After entering Boston harbor an incident
of the voyage took La Tour ashore upon one
of the islands which happened to be the
country home of Governor Winthrop. The
governor and his family were on the beach
when the Acadian chief appeared. Learn
ing who the voyager was, he extended the
usual civiities, and to the dismay of all the
conservative and righteous souls in Boston
sailed up the harbor to town on board La
Tours ship. In point of fact, as Winthrop
soon made known, Boston harbor was de-
fenseless and at the mercy of the idol
atrous" rebel, and If courtesy wouldn't dis
arm any hostile feeling he might nourish
there was nothing else to fall back upon.
After duly praying and arguing over the
knotty problem the canny Puritans decided
that since D'Aulnay and La Tour were

main. A real, true knight, one Claude
Razilly, took possession in the name of
King Louis in 1886. Razilly was lieuten-
ant general of the king, and two lieuten-
ants or subordinates were named to share
the emoluments and honors of Acadia with
him. These were one D'Aulnay and
Charles de la Tour. La Tour meanwhile
had abandoned Cape Sable and built a
fort at the mouth of the river st. John,
where extensive grants had been given in
| reward for his forlorn defense of Acadia
| against all the world" D'Aulnay's seat
was at Port Royal, across the bay of Fun
dy the oldest European settlement in the
region. D'Aulnay was blessed with friends
| at the Paris court, and bitter rivalry soon
| took place between the two chiefs. Both
of them made war upon the Puritan trad
| ing posts of Maine, and as a result the
| Plymouth colonists were drawn into the
| dispute D'Aulnay wanted La Tours help
| in raid on the English, but his willy rival
refused in the hope that D'Aulnay would
go in alone and get worsted and quit the
| country for good. Instead of that, D'Aul-
| nay sailed for France and shortly returned
with bride--an evidence to La Tour that
| his rival intended to stick to Acadia. La
| Tour also took wife from among the
daughters of La Belle France. Her name
was Marie Jacquelius, and she proved to
be an intrepid amazon, almost as strong
an ally as the court favoritism and armed
ships and battalions that supported D'Aul-
nay.
D'Aulnay's forays into the Puritan coun-
try led to royal battle between the rival
Acadian lords. La Tour, with two armed
pinnaces, attacked two of D'Aulnay's YES
sells that were headed for the Maine coast,
dismasted one of them and was on the
point Of winning when his chief officer was
killed. D'Aulnay came of victor and car

the rebel, and three ENJOYS went ashore to
