Edwin Fitzgerald, the Mohican sailor
who assaulted a woman on Madison street
and then vainly tried to outrun a man on
a wheel, was yesterday given most ex-
emplary roasting by Lieut. Comman-
der Wadhams, of his ship, states Tues
days Post-Int elligencer. When he came
up for "a hearing before Judge GLASGOW
Commander Wadhams, who had been
summoned to testify as Ito his reputation
as sailor, said he was absolutely the
worst sailor aboard ship, and had often
been placed in double irons for smuggling
and getting drunk, and he was disgrace
to the American fago He said no true
man-of f-warsman would do such a despic-
able act as Fitzgerald was accused Of and
Thought no punishment too severe for
him. Mr.. Crotty, of counsel for Fitzger-
aid, propounded "a lot of questions to Mr..
Wadhams about his duties aboard ship
and finally asked him what he knew
about mis- position. This question angered
Mr.. Wadhams, and he said: "A d-n
sight more than you do about yours"
The Lady Madge glided into the water
from Hume's slip at exactly high water
yesterday afternoon, surrounded at the
time by a large number of people who
witnessed the Launching ceremony with
much interest. There was considerable
difficulty in getting the cradle to run
freely into the river, and it was only af-
ter considerable hauling, shouting, and In
discriminate assistance from volunteers
that the yacht was got down to a level
with the river. Then the new "nameless"
napuha launch took a line at her stern,
and, after breaking the rope once, man
aged to tow her down into the water.
Miss Eta Strauss stood at the edge Of
the wharf as the Madge broke away and
threw q bottle of wine on her bows.
The boat took a deep plunge by the stern
as she struck the river but Immediately
recovered and righted herself. AS soon
as she was fairly launched the critics
started to make stump speeches on the
dock about her appearance. Some de-
clared she was too short, Others that she
was too deep, and more that she wasn't
deep, wide broad, or slim enough. In
their anxiety to impress on gullible au-
dience the immense quantity OF knowl-
edge they possessed on the subject OF
yachts, they entirely ignored the fact
that the boat was floating with heavy
wooden cradle attachment underneath
her keel, and that she was lying minus
mast or sail. The work Of rigging her
will be Immediately started and by Tues
day she will be ready for running.
Though her ability to cope with heavy
seas is still in doubt, 1t is reasonably
certain that given a fairly good breeze
over the course selected for the regatta,
anything of her inches will have hard
work to catch her.

The reported race" between the Potter

and neither Captain Larkins nor Captain
Sullivan has any intention of making a
contest out of the run. 1t is believed
that the racing controversy that culmi-
mated in these columns in a wager some
time ago, has caused the officials Of both
companies to shut down on any attempt

interrupted run such as the trip from

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced 1t local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to he s con. stitutional disease, and, therefore, re quires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.

4 Vegetable Freak.

The mountain region of Venezuela 8 the home of one of the most remarkable botanical freaks known to grow upon the American continent. It IS e tree which hourishes only upon the mountain sides, and always at the height of about 5000 feet above sea level. It is lofty and slender for its height, and has broad, stiff leaves of dusty white color, whiJb give 1t the appearance of being almos, dead. What is queer about this tree with the tall, slender trunk and dead looking leaves and branches? It is odd enough sure. for although it IS yer, stupid.looking forest growth, it is known the world over as the "milk" or "cow" tree--the famous "palo de vaca," which Hnmbold. So glowinQly describes. It is an evergreen variety, and those who have used it's milk" pronounce it "perfectly delicious" When the traveller, hunter or native of the Venezuelan mountains IS tired, hungry or thirsty, he needs but to cut the bark of the "cow tree' in or. der to be rewarded with copiocs flow of this milky sap, which IS said to be even sweeter aud richer than the milk of the best high. grade Jersey. If col. lected in vessels and allowed to stand Tor some time-say from eight to twelve hours-it grows thick and yellow, and the "cream" goes through the process of rising to the top" st az it does in ordinary milk. At about the time of sunrise, according to Humboldt and other well-known scientists, is the hour chosen by those acquainted with the trees peculiarities for tapping the bark. At that time the milk is believed to be more palatable and nutritious than if taken after the sun has been acting for some hours upon the leaves. Attempts have been made to cultivate the COW tree both in Mexico and the smaller Cen. tral American republics, but 60 tar all such innovations have been failures. As soon as it is removed from the mountain sides, even in its native land, where the natives have tried to grow it in the val ieys, it withers and dies.

About once in generation old mining events and experiences are related, al. ways win interest to olG.timers as we'll as the new generation, to whom they are new. One of these old acqusintances comes across the mountains from the Pacific. It Is of the struggles and sue. cess of Alvinza Hayward, still vigorous old man. He was a partner of man named Chamberlain in a little mine in El DJrsdo county in the sos. At iast Chamb ,rlain became disgrsted, sold out and bought lirtIe farm. Hayward went to Amador county, got possession of mine and proceeded 10 sink for the ore he was snre was there His money at last was gone, the men were disconten.ed waiting for their pay, and still he kept following the instinct which made him feel that bonanzs was beneath his feet. Three hundred feet were sunk, and no ore was in sight. He was working a heavy force of men, was thousands of dollars in debt, and was finally refused a sack of flour. A merchant politely told him that he knew he was honest, would pay him when he could, but he could give him no further credit. Hayward begged for one more sack of flour, and promised when that was gone, if he had rot struck ore, he would not ask for nothing more. On these conditions he got the four That sack was exhausted and still no ore was in sight. Hayward didn't say much about it--he isn't a man of words--but he quietly mounted his horse one day, rode over 10 Chamber. lain's ranch and iaId the situation before his former partner. Chamberlain heard him out without coinmen or sign of any kind, and, when he had finished the tale quietly rose and notioned him to follow Going out behind the house, he took a pitchiork standing there, and scratched away some straw that lay on the ground near by. From a small hole thus disclosed he took out bag. and without word handed it over to Hay. ward. The bag contained $6 5000. No scratch of the pen was wasted, no more words were exchanged. Men acted in those days. Hayward rode back to his mine, paid off his men and quietly went to work again. At a depth of 300 feet ore wss struck, and rich lead il WAS. In a few months a 60-stamp mill was erected ard the mine paying handsomely. When about $35, ,0O0 month was com. ing in, cHsy~srd had the property di. vided into threo equal parts. deed made out for one of them and sent with. out comment over to Cham berlain's little farm in Fl Dorado county.

Flying Snakes of the Antipodes.

The race of flying dragons, which spread such dismsy and terror in olden times, is not yet entirely extinct, If we are to believe the utterances in late Queensland (Austrslis) paper. The Queensland Mercury of March 18th says {: "James Bass, of the sandy fiat, lying beyond the Blue Hill, near the head waters of Csrns Greek, has brought sn- other specimen of flying serpent to this office. It is somewhat smaller than the one exhibited by him at Gulley last year, and larger than the one which he presented us on Christmas Day. Like the other two it has four three. jointed legs, each seven inches long. Between these legs. which are situated two on each side of the body, is a lesthery membrane, much resem bling bats wing. MT. Bass declares that he has often seen them fly across Carns Creek at places where it is sixty feet wide." Exchange.

The panic of 1893 was artificial. It was brought on by New York finsnciers for their selfish purposes. The revival is equally artificial. The advance in wages and pices in 80 many places, and in few things, is in accordance with agreed plans. Some day the people of the United States will awaken to inc fact that power to do SO much is too strong power with which to invest any association of bankers and other cor porations. When they do that there will be fun enough in the way of history making to he worth seeing Mining In. dustry and Trsdssman.

headed, leave John Browns Grave
Alone". Assigning for her reason for go
doing, that she did not desire TO have
slab, or such monument as was placed
ny John Browns family or friends dis.
turled. Mrs. Matthew's forwarded US
copy of Miss Fields paper and we there
upon wrote to Miss Field at Washington,
and IN the letter assured her that it was
not the intention of the association TO
disturb any slab or stone that had been
previously placed there by bis family or
friends. We only desired permission oi
the owners of the property to enter the
grounds, and there in proximity to the
grave, PLACE a 6ttiCss monument, showing !
our everlasting gratitude to this grand
old hero.
We have never received reply to our
letter, to Miss Field, but instead there.
of, we lind the article in your paper OF
the 10th inst, to which our attention has
been called, and which is presumably
her answer to the letters which have
been written to her on this subject.
We are going to erect monument to
the memory of John Brown, if not at
North E!ba, where he ''sleeps the sleep
that knows no waking, then some where
else.
We think that spot at or near his
grave is the most appropriate place to
lift the shaft towards the sky, which |
should tend in slight degree to indicate
the reverence We have for his memory,
as smybol to the world, that we, as a !
race, have not forgotten how much he |
suffered. that we might be free, and thai
thereby the stigma of ingratitude to his
memory might not be applied to US as
race.
Is there anything in this desire that
Mis- Field or any citizen can criticize?
The only objection that she seems to
rise is that she does not wishs that lone
weather. beaten slate.colored stone
should be desecrated."
Would it be Dissertation to any part
OF this grave if We should erect near it
fitting monument, 80 that,in after years,
the world could point to the shaft there
erected, and say "this cmonument Was
built by the Afro.Americ ms, for whose
freedom John Brown died?"
Would not the fact that the Afro-A n.
ericans had such an objec: in view, and
we're laboring to perpetuate their feel
ings of respect to John Brown haye
tendency in itself to educate them to
love the freedom they enjoy; unite them
in the attainment of grant objects, and
, teach them gratitude? And does this not
show that our race is being rapidly re-
leased from the bondage of ignorance.
All nations and all races OF the world
are now, and always have been bound
down more or less by ignorance, and
poverty, the Afro.Ame rica race no more
than any other, and they have the same
rights as any other race to slow their
gratitude by erecting monu ments to
worthy heroes.
No one but myself in the West, has
written to Miss Field, and I wrote to her
to obtain permission to place the monu
ment near the grave of our Hero, I did
not think she would oppose the monu-
ment because she was strong friend to
our race, and because the grave had
been neglected for thirty-five years, and
che loved and Jevered the memory OF
John Brown. whom we al a race wor-
ship "a the grandest hero of the Nine
