SHE WILL Be A
SOLDIERS BRIDE
Miss Alice McCrea and
Lieutenant John Joyce
to Wed.
SHE rs AN ARMY BELLE
The Groom a Popular Officer of
the Gallant Fifth Ar
tillery.
INSTRUCTOR AT WEST POINT.
The News of the Engagement Comes
With the Tidings of the Trans.
fer of the Fifth.
INSTRUCTOR AT WEST POINT.

Army circles and society at large as
well are more than usually interested in
the announcement of the engagement OF
Miss Alice McCrea. only daughter of
Major McCrea, the gallant senior major of
the Fifth Artillery, and Lieutenant Joyce,
also of the Fifth. The engagement, to-
gether with the news OF the transfer of the
Fifth Artillery to New York. were the
main topics of conversation at the Presidio
yesterday.
The bride-to. be is reigniug belle in ex-
elusive army circles. To her nature has
been more than lavish. Endowed with
rare personal beauty, she is gifted as an
artist, and possesses contralto voice of
exquisite sweetness and rich quality.
Miss McCrea is a member OF the Art
Student League of New York and the
Hopkins Art School of this City. Devoted
as she is to her art studies she has never
theless found time for out-of-door amuse-
ments, and is graceful rider and swim
mer.
Lieutenant Joyce has recently been
transferred from the Presidio to West
Point, where he is an instructor in the
military academy of that post. He gradu-
ated from West Point with high honors in
'93 and was Immediately assigned to duty
at the Presidio. During his stay in this
City he was a general favorite with his
comrades, commanding officers and in
social circles.
The wedding of Miss McCrea and Lieu
tenant Joyce will probably not take place
until next June. It will be celebrated at
West Point, which, by the way, is the
birthplace of the charming bride, and
there the young couple will make their
future home.

MONTEREY TANBARx INDUSTRY.
An Enterpnsing San Jose Firm Secures a
Monopoly and is Doing THIRTY
ing Business.

MONTEREY, CAL, Sept. "a. - The
schooner Bessie e., Captain Andersen,
took 11S tons of tanbark from Motley
Bros landing, cove about thirty-eight
miles down the coast from here, to Alviso.
The bark>was consigned to Motley Bros,
San Jose. This last shipment completes
an order of 500 tons. part of which was
shipped by rail from this place. This
hrm commenced operations in this locality
in the summer of last year as venture
and cleaned out in four months time
about 1900 cords of wood, from which they
peeled the bark. The bark had to be
hauled by six-horse teams for forty miles
over the toughest road in the State up the
coast TO this place, where it was shipped
Dy rail to San Francisco and San Jose.
Finding ready sale for the bark. how
ever, Motley Bros. increased their forces
this year and moved farther back in the
mountains, where the BARK was more
plentiful. This year they have already
cut about 5000 cords and will continue
working for several months yet, having
found landing-place about due west from
the scene of operations where small
schooners could anchor and take on car
goes safely, which materially assisted
them In shipping. The country In which
the choppers are now at work is altogether
inaccessible to teams, and all provisions
have to be carried in and all bark has to
be brought out on pack mules. The bark
when brought to the summit of the
mountain is bundled up and slides down
the mountain side in a fiume to the land
ing on the coast.

stdcred Of Great Importance.
FRESNO. CAL, Sept 24.-Mrs. John w.
Lambert, whose husband was acquitted of
charge of murder yesterday, stood about
IL O'Clock last night in her front yard and
overheard the conversation of two men,
one OF whom was threatening to inform
the authorities on some one who had been
the cause of the fires which destroyed the
Baptist and Presbyterian churches in this
city within the past few weeks. The other
fellow was trying to dissuade him from
carrying out his threat. The two men
were standing under a tree, short dis
tance from the Lambert house, and thew
did not see Mrs. Lam bert, who was await
ing the return of her husband from up
town.
Mrs. Lambert thinks that the man who
made the threats to inform on some third
party was under the influence of liquor,
Judging from the manner of his conver-
sation. He said that this party had
Wronged him, and that he was bound to
get even by sending him to the pen.'
L. u. Hart, Chiefo of the Fire Department,
considers Mrs. Lambert's information
very valuable for the reason that he be-
lleves 1t confirms the theory he has held
that the destruction OF the churches was
oil lncendiary origin. He has been totally
unable thus lar, however, to obtain any
ciew as to the guilty party. He hopes 10
work something out of what Mrs. Lam
bert heard last night

FATAL LEAP FROM A CAR
Mrs. Kate Taber, or Tahey, Of
San Francisco Meets an
Awful Death.
Was on Her Way to Butte, Montana
and Is Supposed to Have Be.
come Insane.

PORTLAND, Or, Sept. 24.-General
Passenger Agent w. II. Hurlburt last
night received brief dispatch from his
agent at Wallula to the effect that an un-
known woman, holding ticket from San
Francisco to Butte, Mont, had jumped
from a tourist-car on the o. r. and N.
Railway while the train was in motion,
near Wallula, and received injuries from
which she shortly after died. The act was
either suicidal one, or committed while
the woman was laboring under an insane
spell.
The information telegraphed to Mr..
Hurlburt was of the most meager kind,
with nothing in the way of description
from which to identify the unfortunate
woman, beyond her own signature to her
ticket, which is not very clear, and reads
either MRS. Kate Taber" or "Mrs. Kate
Tahey."
The woman was on the train that left
Portland at o'clock Tuesday evening,
and she jumped from the train about 2
o'clock yesterday morning. When the
train backed up to where she lay she was
found unconscious, with her face badly
bruised and one arm broken. She was
placed on the train and taken TO Wallula,
and left there for medical attention. She
never recovered consciousness, and died
shortly after, leaving the mystery as to
her identity or cause for the fatal leap
deeper than ever.
