SALOONS IN Politics.

New York Brewers VIII Oppose Remov-
ing Their Power
New YORK, Dec. 10. The CONNER
cial Advertiser asserts upon the author
ity of a brewer that large lobby and
money, if necessary, will be sent to Al
bany this winter to oppose the passage
of the so-called "Raines excise bill. -
The brewers are willing to spend $780,
600 or more, it is said, to defeat the pro-
posed measure.
The clause to which the brewers OBJ
lcct is the one which provides for tax
on saloons instead of license. The tax
is made a lien on the business of the
dealers for arrears and money penalties,
thus precluding brewers from holding
mortgages On the licenses and fixtures,
as they now do. 1t is estimated that
brewers hold mortgages ON saloons ag-
grcgating over ST ,000,000
The number Of licenses is limited by q
rule OF the excise board, and brewers
control nine tenths Of them. The brew.
crs thus Weld a powerful influence over
liquor dealers and control the so-calleC
saloon vote. An attempt will be made
to deprive them Of this power on the
plea that, by creating a tax and releas
ing the saloon keeper from the grasp o.
the breW"", the saloon will be taken out
of politi'a. The country members il
the next legislature are relied upon tC
support such {, measure. A bill on the
lines indicated is being drafted in thi!
city.

Hers is sad and peculiar case, of
several months duration, and she seems
to be hopelessy insane.
The physician who has been attend

her trouble, and has satisfied himself
that insanity is not hereditary in her
family.
She believes that the house in which
she lives with her husband and two
young children is about to fall on her.
This hallucination, that she is about to
be crushed by falling object, is the
principal form of her insanity. She is
particularly avcrse to residing on the
North side of the city and fears that
any one who resides on the North side
will injure her.

A BOWLDER OF PURE SILVER.
Half-Ton Nugget Found Beside Railroad
Track in Arizona.

(Arizona Letter in San Francisco Ex-
aminer.)
From Peach Springs comes the story of
the finding of nugget, or bowlder rather,
of pure silver, such as there has been no
record of in the history of mining in the
West This bowlder weighed about half
a ton, and its value is any where from
$4,000 to SO, 000 1t was found by William
Tucker and John Doyle, both old pros
pectors, and they have kept the facts to
themselves heretofore because of the
chance that there was more silver where
this lump came from, and they desired
to get the best location for themselves be-
fore letting the rest of the world into the
secret.
The find was made on the 10Th of June
The men had been prospecting in the
Death Valley mining region, and had
started across country to the Grand canyon
of the Colorado, to get into little pleas
anter region for their summer work.
They were camped on the Beach emigrant
road, just where the cutoff comes down
over the low, rolling hills to the railroad
track, about four miles from Peach
Springs, and the nugget was lying with
in 300 feet of the railroad track and not
more than 100 feet from the main wagon
road. 1t projected from the hillside in
plain view Of the road, and stood in such
position that more than one man had
probably sat upon it to gaze up or down
the railroad track. Being exactly similar
in appearance to hundreds of other loose
rocks in that region, it had escaped par
ticular notice until Mr.. Tucker came
alone and rested his hand upon it. Both
Doyle and Tucker are old miners, and
Tucker, especially, was struck with the
peculiar "feel" of this bowlder. He is
foY, ,f
as black metal, 3" found in the dolomite
limestone in the Mescal mine in Cali
fornia, and almost intuitively it struck
him that here was a piece of the same
black metal
He had gone out to bring his horses
into camp when the rock attracted his at
tention, and trying to break off frag-
solid metal. He tried to lift it, but could
not, and then he went and brought Doyle
out to help him. A little digging dis
closed a bowlder in the shape of an oblong
oval, something like the back of a turtle,
about 1-2 feet long, of the same width,
and one foot thick. The top was smooth
and III itrous and the under surface was
coate,, with scales of the black metal
Mr. Tucker says the nugget has all the
appearance Of having been thrown up
from a great vein and smelted by the flow
of the lava which abounds in that region,
cooling in the form in which it was
found; and this theory is borne out by
the find of at least dozen similar pieces,
though much smaller, in the same vicin-
1ty. These pieces of pure silver weighed
from to 80 pounds each.
Tucker and Doyle have located min
ing claim where the bowlder was found,
and intend to sink shaft and drift in
search of the main vein
Mr.. Tucker said today that in 1888 a
piece of smelted silver weighing -four
pounds was found b. William Hooker
two miles west of Peach Springs, but at
tracted no attention, the supposition be-
ing that 1t had been stolen from Mexi-
can smelter and subsequently, lost by the
thief.
