CALIFORNIA IN 1893.
ft Had Both Depression and Cause Tor
C0nErntulation.

e Had Both Depression and Cause for
ConGratulation.
Says a San Francisco letter to the
New York Tribune: The retrospect Of
the year in California does not show
the usual gains in business and the
customary progress in the material de-
velopment Of tho state. About the
only increase in crops is found in hops,
of which 4S, 900 bales were shipped this
year, q gain of 5000 bales over last
year. There has also been a substan-
tial increase in the gold yield, the out
put for this year being $4,000, 900, a
gain of about $4,000, 900. From all In
dications gold mining will have big
boom the coming year, rs hundreds OF
mines that have not been worked for
ten years will be reopened and new
properties developed. The wine mon
have had a good year, as there HAS re-
Gently been an unexpected demand for
wine and brandy. The decrease in
bank clearings probably serves rs the
best index to the financial depression
on this coast. This decrease amounts
to e1O6, 200, 900. Real estate transac-
tions in this city also fell from sci ,0co,-
600 to S13, zoe, 900. The grain shipments
were heavy, but the low price made the
total returns smaller. The railroad
freight movement surpassed the rec
ords of all previous years, the increase
over the previous year being 47,0o0, 900
pounds, which would fill 21,794 cars
The salmon and cod fishing industrier
were both prosperous.

The Salt Of the Sea.

According to computation of the
Berg und Huettenmaennische Zeitung
the amount of salt in the sea waters of
the globe, if extracted, would be great
er in mass than the land, SO for as it
appears above the surface. The. seas,
it says, cover IS per cent. Of the carth's
surface, estimated at 0,260,0o0 Ger
MANI square miles. The percentage of
chlornatrium in the sea is the same
at all depths. Assuming that the av-
cragc depth of the sea is half Ger
mani mile there are then 3,4OO, 900 GU
bic miles of sea water. A cubic mile
of sea water contains, on the average,
about 25 Kilograms of salt. The S,4oo,-
600 cubic miles of sea water would,
contain $4,000 cubic miles OF
distilled pure salt. There is, there
fore, little danger of . salt famine-;s
the rather logical deduction OF the
writer

Giving the Miteen.

The following is from the Boston
Saturday Evening Gazette: A young
lady in this city is carrying on quite
an original and pretty little philan-
thropic work of her own, and with ex-
cellcnt results. At the beginning Of
the winter she invested in q large num-
Der of warm mittens Of various sizes,
and every cold day, before going out,
two or three pairs Of these are slipped
into her pocket. To use her own
words: 'It is very seldom that re-
turn without having found some man.
woman, or child whose hands look
sufficiently red and cold to justify me
in Offering them pair Of the mittens
from my little stock. 1t is very tiny
charity, but it pleases me to feel can
make somebody even one degree
more comfortable in these depressing
times"

RICHEST FAMILIES IN AMERICA

The Astors and the vandexbilts Control
Between Them Hundreds OF Millions.
A careful estimate of the wealth of
the Astors puts it at 5000, ,OOO, 900, and
this makes the family the richest in
the United States. What is more. the
wealth of the Astors is in such shape
that it cannot but increase, for the
reason that it is gilt-edged New York
city real estate, some of which, accord.
ing to the Washington Star, has with
in the past ten years increased in
value 700 per cent. and is still appre.
ciating. The policy Of the Astors has
always been to buy real estate on the
lines along which New York is now
extending and hold it for rise, rare
ly selling, however, but building and
renting instead. The result is that
the Astor properties are in valuable
lands, in brick, iron, stone and mortar
instead of in fluctuating stocks and
bonds, the fixed value of which is al.
ways uncertain. As family the Van.
derbilts stand next to the Astors in the
must be considered in the aggregate
and in common. since their individual
fortunes are pooled, SO to speak. You
will often see Cornelius Vanderbilt.
the present head of the house, quoted
as being worth 500, ,o00, 900. OF course
he is not worth any such amount Cor.
nelius has most of the Vanderbilt mil.
lions, but those who know say that he
is personally not worth above $50, ,ooo,-
600, if as much.
It must be remembered that the late
William II. Vanderbilt had q large
family to divide his millions among,
and so the shares in the end were not
SO large as some people thought them.
Besides there is disposition on the
part of the calculators who love big
figures to give the Vanderbilts credit
for owning outright their great rail.

thousands of stockholders share in the
ownership.

ACROSS THE YAQUI COUNTRY.

The First White Man Who Ever Accom-
Plislod the Trip.
Charles T. Naylor, an American pros
pector who left the city of Chihuahua
eight months ago for a trip across
the Sierre Madre mountains and
through the wild and dangerous coun-
try inhabited by the Yaqui Indians,
arrived at Hermosillo, Mexico, re.
Gently.
His trip was made in the search Of
silver and gold. and was the most des-
perate undertaking imaginable. Mr..
MAYORS route from chihuahua was by
way of Tomochic, the town which was
entirely depopulated in an attack
made upon the inhabitants over q year
ago by Mexican troops. who massacred
the men, women and children.
Mr.. Naylor stated that in the noun.
tains west of the fated town he came
upon q band of about two hundred
Tomochic braves who had an almost
impenetrable rendezvous upon which
all attacks of Mexican soldiers had
proved futile. Unon observing that
Mr.. Naylor was an American bent
upon q peaceful mission, lie was well
received. He spent two weeks with
the Tomochics and then entered the
Yaqui country. 1t was there that he
met with difficulties. He was captured
by band of Yaquis and held prisoner
for several days pending decision
of the chief as to what disposition
should be made of him. After several
solemn councils by the chief with the
other prominent members of the tribe.
Mr.. Naylor was placed upon horse
and with two wounded Indians as
guards was started across the coun-
try toward the west. He passed
through number of villages, and was
never permitted to tarry longer than
one night at . single place.
At the western confines Of the Yaqui
country his guards left him and he
made his way with great difficulty
across the mountains TO Hermosillo
Mr.. Naylor tells some ma. velous stories
of the mineral richness of the Yaqui
country and states that the number OF
the members of the Yaqui tribe has
been greatly underestimated. He
claims to have seen fully three thou
sand armed braves. Some Of the In
dian towns contain handsome chapels,
and buildings, all of Aztec architec
ture. Mr.. Naylor is the first white
man that Is known to have crossed the
Yaqui country. There have been nu-
merous attempts made, but the va
quis always interfered. This is the
only tribe in Mexico which has never
been conuuered

REAL NEW JERSEY APPLEJACK.

terations Plentiful.
One doesn't hear SO much as former.
ly about Jersey lightning" This,
says the Pittsburgh Dispatch, isn't be-
cause applejack is not made any more.
Quite the contrary. The local name
has departed because the juice of the
apple, which, distilled by the farmers
in the northern part Of the state, pro-
duced the lightning effect, is now
known throughout the country. Jer.
sey applcjack, or apple whisky or
brandy, as it is called in some of the
fashionable city hotels and barrooms,
is now among the brands on hand in
every well-regulated cafe.
It is curious how applejack got its
popularity. Originally it was strictly
local in its manufacture and use. The
farmers of Sussex and Warren counties
were the sole producers and the sole
consumers. They knew the mellow
effect of that distillation. They knew
how, with lump or two of sugar and
a touch of water, to make it palatable.
The instant effects upon the brain and
then upon the tongue were discovered
half century ago. The permeating eff.
fects and the mellowing tendencies in.
creased with age. Consequently every
hospitable farmer in these parts kept
his demijohn of ten or fifteen-year-old
''apple," as the case might be. Farm.
ers' sons emigrated to Newark and
other parts of the state. Others started
in business in New England or out
west. They all sent home for apple
jack and sounded its praise. Friends
sampled the golden-hued liquor and
relished it. Gradually the st; nulant
that humorists styled Jersey lightning
ceased its local features and became
more universal. To-day you can get
New Jersey app-eJack, or something
labeled that way, in the prominent
cafes in any of the larger cities. Plcn-
ty of so-called applcjack is for sale;
but much Of it is made up of all sorts
of ingredients. 1t is fiery enough to
upset the brain and will intoxicate all
too rapidly, but the delicate flavor of
the real article is missing, and the man
familiar with the taste will not take .
second drink.

officer in astonishment.
''The whole thing, including myself,

And then she went around to

to see if the s'singlings" were strong
enough.
