SAN FRANCISCO, March IA
mysterious expedition left today for
Alaska. The steam schooner Excelsior
was chartered and so quietly was the
matter carried out that the owners of
the vessel c. A. Hooper and company,
knew hardly anything of the plans Of
the managers.
Last year some wealthy citizens of
Boston heard rumors of immense gold
bearing deposits at Cooks inlet. and a.
Pennock, an experienced miner, was
sent up to view the country.
Pennock made a thorough search for
the shipping metal, and, in his opinion,
he was successful beyond all question.
Pennock, with a few friends, at
once measured off over ten acres Of
land which showed gold from the grass
roots onto bed rock. Water rights
were secured and the prospectors
washed out Z, few ounces and started
for Boston The gold is both fine and
coarse and the mint values it at SIG
per ounce.
The Boston investigators incorpor-
ated as the Alaska and Boston COM
pany and 100000 was paid in. Henry
z. Spaulding and G. T. w. Drama. the
latter being at the head of the West
Side Electric roads, came to this city
and at once began preparations for
the expedition.
The destination of the expedition has
been most carefully guarded but it is
known that the objective point is about
twenty miles from Resurrection creek
at the head Of Cooks inlet.

Missing Rio de JRneiro Reaches
Honolulu at Last.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 12-The
steamship Alameda which arrived here
this afternoon from Australia, Samoa
and Honolulu. brought news of the safe
de Janeiro at Honolulu on March l.
The Rio de Janeiro left this port thirty
five days ago for Yokohama and grave
Reinsurance Of the ship and her cargo
had already begun.
According TO the news received from
Honolulu, had weather and heavy
westerly winds prevailed for several
days after the Rio left San Francisco
For eight or nine days the sale was
extremely severe with the barometer
falling all the time. On February %.
the coal supply ran short and it was
decided to turn around and make for
Honolulu. The officers thought that
there was more chance Of reaching
Honolulu than there was of reaching
Yokohama.
The state rooms aft were torn down
and fed to the furnace TO keep the
steamer going. Even the mizzen mast
head had to come down and go into
the furnace. Finally land was sighted
and the city of Rio de Janeiro arrived
as stated. Besides the damage wrought
TO substitute wood for coal the steamer
sustained no injury whatever She
took in 1000 tons of coal and resumed
her voyage to the Orient the same
night. Her passengers were not all
lowed to go ashore.

WILLARD BISHOP ExPLAINs.

Frank Nephew, who kept combina-
ton barber shop, pool room and refresh
ment stand on Ninth East street was
arrested last month and found guilty in
the police court Of maintaining a dis
orderly house, but sentence was suspend
ed. The complainant in the case was
Willard Bishop, gentleman of the high
est standing, and from the showing made
at the trial, he was fully justified in pro-
tecttng the peace and quiet of the neigh
borhood. Unfortunately, however the
nature of his connection with the case
was not fully understood by some IN
acquainted with his character, and has
caused him some annoyance. The gen
tleman has sent to The Herald a state
ment of the facts, and the following por-
ton of his communication, which is all
that is necessary to correct any errone-
GUS impression. is published:
Il wish to say in reglrd to the affair
that L have never in my life engaged in
game of billiards, nor have / visited
any place for the purpose of watching
game being played; and further than
this. there was not one single particle
of evidence introduced in court to show
that I was connected with the affair in
any such way. and l defy The Herald
or any one else to prove to the contrary.
| The facts of the case are that I have
the misfortune to be located next door
to the place in question and have suffered
so much annoyance from the patrons of
the place who congregate around cut
side cursing and swearing to such an ex-
tent that business is greatly interfered
with. and cases are known where ladies
passing by have been made the object
of insulting remarks. In consequence
have been compelled to complain to the
police on several occasions, and on the
night in question. while in my own house
there was a general disturbance and
what bid fair TO be a free-for-all fight
outside the place, as well IS d Disgrace
full affair inside. J ran out to see what
was the trouble, followed by my wife and
little boy, and seeing it was something
that required police attention. l took my
family back into the house out of harm s
way, boarded First South street car,
and in short time returned with the
police and patrol wagon. 1 afterwards
swore to complaint against the pro-
prietor of the dive, charging him with
keeping a dsorderly house. and produced
enough evidence to secure verdict of
guilty.

tradicted Mrs Browns testimony that
she objected to Mrs. Stockton as MEM
Der of the choir. He said Mrs. Brown
had nothing to do with the selection of

objection to Mrs. Stockton as a member
of the choir. The deacons were asked
questions about Mrs. Davidson and if

"WoNDERFUL DISCOVERY"
"New Machine seIf-OiIing, scIf-Re-
pairing"


This is a wonderful age, and even a
new invention causes hardly a ripple
Of surprise. 1t is century in which
inventors, or rather those who hold
the patents of the numerous inven-
tons become rich. However, there is
a gravel FOUNDER in Zion which is so
unique in design, sure OF execution,
and costs the city so little, that it is
rather remarkable other municipal
cornora tons do not adopt this method
of forming walks. II would surely be
cheaper than cement. stone or boards.
The working parts of this machine
only will be described. 1t consists of
countless pedals arranged in pairs,
and these go constantly over the
gravel, forward and backward As
is fixed firmly in it's place, some public
spirited person causes another load to
be dumped down, and the ceaseless
treading goes on again.
The citizens of Zion are fastidious.
SO you will not be surprised to learn
that this machine is carefully covered.
On some of the pedals are the daintiest
kid shoes that mortal eyes ever looked
upon. But when the work begins, the
SHOES are soon a sorry sight. The
NO. 10 boots which cover most of the
pedals do not show wear and tear as
soon, but such pedals alone would
not give the machine sufficient
beauty.
The shoe merchants are delighted
and they say gravel walks are just
excellent. We do not have to pay taxes
to keep them in repair, and most of the
citizens are glad to buy boots and
shoes for this machine. It keeps the
money in circulation. and that is what
gives life to trade. We don't want ce-
ment sidewalks. as long as we can
use the pedal machine to such advan-
tage
The men and women who come to
the joint building daily have become
so accustomed to the sight that it is
very doubtful whether they see the
machine working or whether they hear
the. crunchipg of the gravel as it
sweeps back and forth. We get so
used to seeing wonders that no heed
is paid to them. There is a runor
afioat that a party of councilmen from
the east are coming here to inspect
this machine, and it may be that very
soon in all large cities nothing but
ordinary gravel will be used for walks
and the men and women who go shop
ping or on business will just spend a
little of their energy in grinding down
the pretty smooth pebbles which will
be found in the public highways.

JOINT BUILDING COMMITTEE.
Elevator Question to Be Considered
AEnin This Afternoon.

There will be meeting of the joint
building committee at the mayors Of
flee this afternoon, when the elevator
question will come uD for brief con-
sideration. Ever since Commissioner
Christopherson turned his somersault
and landed among the hydraulic sup
porters he has, it is said, been regret
ting it. The claim is made, whether
properly or not, that there is a very
good reason why he should, as the city
will not allow the county to use it's
half of the boiler plant during the sum-
mer without extra pay. Even during
the cold season when steam is neces-
sary in the building il follows that
more coal will be required to run the
elevator. Then experts will probably
be necessary to determine just how
much extra. fuel is consumed in order
that the city may not be compelled
to pay more than it's share.
These and several other propositions
are some that have arisen in Mr..
Christopherson' mind that he had
never thought of before. Probably the
problem will be made clear to some
extent at the meeting today.
