Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Or
gan and Piano mar of Washington, N. j.,
is buster than ever. In 1870 Mr.. Beatty
left home a penniless pillow boy, and by
his indomitable will he has worked his
way up so as to sell SO far, nearly 100 900
of Beatty's Pianos and Organs since 1870.
Nothing seems to dishearten him obsta-
cles lay in his way that would have
wrecked an ordinary mar forever; he
turns to an advertisement and comes out
OF it brighter than ever. His instru-
ments are in USE everywhere. We are
informed that during the next ten years
he intends to sell 200. 600 more of his
make. That means a business of $2O,-
900 900, if we average them az 800 each.
it is already the largest business of the
kind in existence. Read his advertise

IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
He Was Out Hunting With
Some Friends When He
Was Killed.
ONE BULLET CLEFT HIS HEART
One Of the Boys Was Trying to I'm
load a Pistol, When a Cart
ridge Exploded.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, Sept. S.-Roman
Silva, whose home is at 1913 Jackson street,
between Powell and Stockton, San Fran
cisco, was accidentally shot in Ralph Pc.
terson's hopyard on the Santa Rosa Greek,
near this city, this afternoon about II 80
o'clock.
Silva, in company with two other lads,
Robert Zaroate and Joseph Oseguedta,
went out on shooting expedition in the
morning. They took a gun and pistol
with them to kill birds. Silva lent the
pistol to Zaroate to shoot a bird, and Ia
roate after firing the shot proceeded to
take out the empty shell. In doing so he
accidentally pulled the trigger and dis
charged another cartridge.
The bullet struck Silva above the left
nipple, penetrating the heart. He was
bending over at the time and fell dead.
The body was at once taken to the
morgue, and an inquest was held soon
after by Coroner Young. Zaroate says he
believed that he took the pistol in his hand
to put in new cartridge and did not
notice that it was cooked. While putting
back the cylinder it went off and killed the
boy. The body of Silva will be conveyed
to San Francisco on the first train Monday
morning,

VACAV|LLE'S BIC FIRE.
Flames Swept Through the
Business Section of the
Town.
Before the Blaze Was Got
Under Control.

VACAVILLE, CAL, Sept. 8.-Since soon
after 8 o'clock this evening fire has been
raging along Main street, andeit was not
until nearly II o'clock that it was put
under anything like control.
1t started in one of the rooms of the Cen
trail Hotel. A lighted lamp had been left
on table, and the report of its explosion
gave the first alarm The burning oil was
thrown over the walls of the room, and be-
fore any attempt could be made to stay its
progress, the flames had gained too much
Roadway to be stopped.
When the fire department arrived the
hotel was mass of flames, and famed by
the strong southeast wind which was
blowing, they commenced to envelop the
houses to the eastward of the hotel. First,
however, the flying sparks ignited Robes
stable, just opposite the hotel, and this
was entirely destroyed with all it's con-
tents, excepting the horses.
Up the street, the first building destroyed
was the opera-house, owned by A. ].
Bowles, who also owned the hotel. 1t is
now but mass of glowing embers. Be-
yond the opera-house was 1. NJ. Burns
saloon, and that with SlidePs saloon, next
to it and chophouse beyond, were soon
in ashes. Then Charles Wehr's saloon
caught fire, and right after it Randall's
confectionery store.
From Randalls the wind carried the
sparks over into Chinatown and eight or
nine of the ramshackle buildings there
were burned. The eastward progress of
the fire was stayed when it reached that
point.
In the meantime the flames had been
creeping westward and had destroyed A.
]. Gobbins' law Office and it was with diff
ficulty that he saved part of his library.
Next to Gobbins' office building was Mrs.
Regan's confectionery store and this, too,
went up in smoke with Melbie's bakery,
which was right next door.
While the fire was raging along Main
street, the sparks flying in every direction,
and it was not long before the residence of
Milt Davis, in the northern part of the
town was ablaze. AS the entire depart
ment, and nearly all the townspeople were
gathered near the center of the burning
district, Davis house was Ieveled to the
ground.
The total loss will reach up to nearly
$40 900. Estimates made hastily put it at
anywhere fIom $35, 900 to $45, 900. and it is
not supposed that more than $20 900 of this
is insured.
Bowles, who owned both the hotel and
the Spira House, is thought to be the
heaviest loser. He will lose at least $4,000
on the hotel and $500 on the opera-house,
but some of this will be offset by insurance.
The hotel was comfortably filled at the
time and while many of the guests lost
clothing and personal effects, so far as
could be learned no one was seriously
hurt. Others lost from $500 to $1,000. The
burned district stretches for over block
and half along one side of Main street,
and it was only by the greatest effort that
other side, or spreading along from the
stable.

SAN MATEO'S CREEKS,
Those on the Ocean Side to
Be Used to Generate
Electricity.
Streams Available for that
Purpose.

REDWOOD CITY, CAL, Sept. 8.-The
question of water supply sufficient to
generate electric power is being considered
by practical men who have recently visited
the coast side of San Mateo County. The
possibilities of the Pillarcitos, Purissimo,
Lobitas, Tunitas, San Gregorio, Pomponia
Pescadero, Britano and Gazas creeks have
been under consideration with view of
putting in dams and dynamos to generate
power for an electric railroad to connect
the coastside towns with San Francisco;
also with reference to the transmission OF
electric power to San Francisco for general
uses.
These streams of water rise among the
mountains at intervals of every few miles
and run to and empty into the ocean.
With the exception of the San Francis.
quito and San Mateo creeks they find no
counterpart on the bay side of the county
Heretofore these waters on the ocean
side have been considered most valuable
as being part of the available supply for
the domestic uses of San Francisco The
Spring Valley Water Works is large
owner of lands and water rights on several
of these steams, although all the great
lakes of the Spring Valley storage system
lie on the easterly or bay side of the
county.
The people OF the coast side have waited
many years to learn if additional uses
might not develop, so that the immense
water supply running to waste in the
ocean could be brought under control and
made to produce revenue. The creation
and transmission OF electic power may
bring about this result, and also develop
an electric railway system that will place
one of the most charming sections of the
coast within less than an hours ride of
San Francisco

TROUBLE IN ROSSLAND MINES.
Prospects of o. General Strike of Unto,
WOTknen.

SPOKANE, WASH, Sept. s.-Private re-
ports from Rossland, the booming new
mining camp of British Columbia, state
that strike among the miners is immi-
nent. The majority of the miners there
are from Coeur d'Alene and connected with
the Caur d'Alene union, which has been
the cause of so much trouble and the in
citor of the mob rule of few wears ago.
OF late the mine owners with military
aid have been able to work non-union men.
AS a result the union men have gone to the
Trail Creek district in British Columbia.
They are not satisfied with the wages paid
and propose to make determined and
united effort for raise.
A short time ago some of the miners
went on strike but returned to work the
next day without the increase demanded.
Since then they have been holding frequent
meetings, and it is now expected that a
grievance strike will be inaugurated. The
mine owners do not fear repe tition of the
Ceur d'Alene trouble, for they say the
British Columbia laws are very stringent
in matters of this kind.

ENGLISH PRESS OPINI ONS.
Disposition to Make the Most of the Er-
cursion Boats Interference.

Disposition to Make the Most of the Er-
cursion Boats Interference.
LONDON, ENG, Sept S.-The Telegraph
will say that it is manifest that the De-
fender is wonderful yacht.
The Graphic will say that it can not see
how to explain the defeat of the Valkyrie
except by admitting that the Defender is
the better boat.
The Post in its article on the race will
greatly blame the pleasure craft for crowd
ing on the course, and will say it presumes
that Lord Dunraven will not sail the Val
kyrie again unless effective means shall
be taken to prevent similar crowding in
the future races. The paper will add:
eve must not make too much of Satur-
days race 1t was the Valkyrie's first
match after her Atlantic voyage and the
course was more familiar to the Defend
er's skipper and crew than to the Valky-
Iie's."
The Chronicle will say: Such behavior
as that of the pleasure steamers Saturday
would be hardly possible during an Eng
lish yacht race. The love of sport would
prevent it. The first thing in English
minds would be the race, not merely the
sight OF the race.
The Standard will say: With the best
intentions the American yachting au-
thorities are apparently unable to secure
fair play. The chances are that should
the Defender retain the cup no British
yachtsman will attempt to bring it back
unless it is agreed beforehand to sail so
far from great city as to be beyond
the reach of the excursion nuisance.
The Standard does not admit that the
Valkyrie is the British champion yacht,
and says that her sailing on the Clyde did
not prove that she was better than the
Britannia, except in paltry wind.
GLASGOW, SCOTLAND, Sept. 8.-The
Herald of this city will say tomorrow in
an article on the defeat of Valkyrie III
that the result is exceedingly disappoint-
ing, as it looks so like repetition of the
old disheartening story. 1t will add:
1.-THE Defender won the first race in a
breeze that on the whole presumably
suited her less than it did the challenger.
There seems to be no dissent from the
opinion that she won on her merits. Our
hope rests on the chance of the Valkyrie
developing under different conditions
other superior qualities than those with
which she has been credited which have
not proved superior. If we are doomed to
be beaten it is to be hoped we will take the
licking like men,"
The Mail will not comment on the race.
