YOLO'S TERRIFIC STORM
The Heavens Open for Fifteen
Minutes and People Stand
Appalled,.
A Man and a Mule Struck by Light.
ming and a Stubble.Fie1d
Burned.

WOODLAND, CAL, Aug. 20.-One of
the most terrific storms ever witnessed in
this locality swept over the Southern por-
ton of Yolo County about noon yesterday
and it is miracle that no human lives
were lost.
The tierceness of the storm was not gen.
eral. The only part of the county where
any destruction was done was on the north
side OF Putah Creek, exte nding from
George Pierce's place, near Davisville. to
the ranch of F. E. Russell, about four
miles east of Winters.
The storm consisted of a heavy down
pour OF rain, accompanied by binding
flashes of lightning and heavy peals of
thunder. 1t lasted about fifteen minutes,
and half an hour later everything was
sunshine. The horses and cattle became
frightened and ran around the fields in a
furious manner.
At ]. E. LaRue's place the lightning
struck yearling mule which was running
with a band of horses, killing it instantly.
An employe working on the farm of
George Pierce was struck by the ligb thing
AMI is probably fatally injured.
A flash of lighting ignited stubble- field
and before it could be extinguished mile
of fence was destroyed. While the storm
was in progress the residents of the vicin-
ity were badly frightened, for it was one
of the most terrifying scenes ever wit
messed by them, especially when at the
beginning of the storm nothing more seri-
Gus was apprehended than a summer
shower.

Grizzly Bluff Creamery and Cheese Fac
tory Consumed
FERNDALE, CAL, Aug. 20.-The Griz-
Ely Bluff creamery and cheese factory, the
largest and best equipped in Eel River
Valley, and situated about five miles from
Ferndale, was destroyed by fire this morn
ing at about O'Clock, together with all
the machinery, thirty boxes of butter and
twelve tons of cheese. The creamery had
a capacity of 1000 pounds of butter per day
and about the same for cheese. 1t was
built in 1890, and had become famous for
the good quality OF its cheese, which was
said to be the best in the State. The flames
were first discovered by daughter OF j.
Davenport. managerof the crea merry, who
resides within short distance OF the fac
tory. A small dwelling in close proximity
was also burned. The exact cause is I'M
known, but it is supposed to have been
from the boiler-room. 1t was joint stock
company, of which Messrs. Wheaton,
Breon & Co. of San Francisco are agents.
The total loss will amount to $4,000, with
$4,000 insurance. recently taken at low
rate for three years by the Fireman's Fund
OF San Francisco. Joe Davenport is the
heaviest loser.

said, that deeming the relationship that
existed between himself and Turner to be
a relation of the third degree of affinity

no blood relation, having married two sis

u pom the law and to avoid creating ire
mendous expense to Trinity County, he
would deny the motion, and he submitted
a manuscript which contained his written
opinion to the clerk for filing, from which
the following in substance was distracted:
Hon. Edward sweeny, Judge of the Superior
Court OF shasta County, has informally held
that no affinity existed and cited an authority
from the Supreme Court of Tennessee, found
IN the forty-third or forty-fourth American Re-
ports which sustained his position exactly
and led me to believe that was perhaps mis-
taKen. Upon visiting San Francisco last spring
thoroughly investigated the question and
my n!nd was changed by the right of anthor-
lty being the other way. To grant the motion
would at once deprive me of Jurisdiction and
poss bly, render nugatory ali proceedings here

to try the case. The progress that has been
made in the trial has been such that do not

four jurors having been added. making
the total OF jurors chosen ten, the defense
having exhausted eighteen peremptory
challenges and the prosecution one, a
venlre OF twenty was called for from which
to select the remaining two, and it was
decided to take recess to Saturday that
an officer might find time to serve the
subpenas and secure unpreiudiced men.
the Judge considering one day sufficient
remarklng that around the basin IN which
Weaverville lies there are plenty of men
in the woods who do not come to town
once in coon's age.
The question arose as TO whether the
Sheriff was not disqualified to act on ac-
count of his pecuniary interest in the re-
ward offered for the apprehension OF the
murderers in consequence of which an
other party was chosen to perform the
duty. Jim Dockery, as elisor, will have
twenty-five men at court by 10 o'clock
Saturday morning.

FIRE At NEVADA CITY.
ChIorination ForEs at the Providence
Mine Destroyed.

COLONIZATION Works at the Providence
Mine Destroyed.
NEVADA CITY, CAL, Aug. 20.-At
8 O'Clock this morning the chlorination
works at the Providence mine were discov-
cred on fire. William Hooking, the fur
naceman IN charge at that hour, had gone
to the changing room in the lower part of
the building only few minutes before
and on his return found the fire blazing
fiercely. 1t had started near the irebox
on the side of the building next to Deer
Creek. Hooking gave the alarm to the
mon on duty at the mill and soon two
good streams of water were playing on the
burning building from the hose that Is
kept In readiness for use in case of fire.
Adjoining the chlorination works was a
small room in which the retortiI.g was
done. This room was not over twenty
five feet from the large forty stamp mill
building, being connected Herewith by
tramway. What little wind there was
blew away from the mill, but even with
this advantage the men had to work hard
to save the mill. The Office, just above
the works. was burned. Several tanks
containing gold in solution were de-
stroyed and their contents lost. All the
chemicals, assaying material aud appa-
ratus and other contents of the building
were destroyed. 1t is thought that the
furnace was not badly damaged.
The loss will probably be from $500 to

body of his victim, eventually breaking
into run as the gathering crowd started
in pursuit. Then began most exciting
chase. in which hundreds joined, all shout
ing 'tStop him Stop him. As the lead
ing pursuers neared him Lee calmly
wheeled and fired two shots into the
crowd, without effect, and resumed his
flight. Dodging into an alley he calmly
stopped and began loading his pistol.
At this moment Policeman Talbot drove
up in hack, sprang ont and made dash
al the fugitive. Luckily for the fearless
officer Lee had a cartridge iammed in the
cylinder OF the pistol and was unable to
shoot Seeing that the policeman was
rapidly approaching he hurled the weapon
at Talbot's head with all his strength.
The officer lodged the missile and the
next minute had the irons on Lees wrists,
loaded him into the hack and drove
rapidly away before the main portion of
the crowd arrived.
On arriving at the police station Lee
calmly told his story TO the Chief of
Police, City Attorney ana others, admit
ting his guilt and seemingly showing abb
solutely Indifference to his fate; in fact,
he had scarcely entered his cell before he
was smoking cigarette and laughing.

The Utopia Crashes Into the
Rapid Passenger Boat
The Flyer.
LIVES M1RACULoUsLY SAVED.
Slow Running of the Vessels Alone
Prevented Another Dire
Calamity.

SEATTLE, WASH, Aug. 20.-In dense
fog of Browns Point five miles out from
Tacoma, the swift and handsomely APP
pointed passenger steamer Flyer, which
plies regularly between Seattle and Ia
coma, and the freight and passenger
steamship Utopia collided this morning at
$3.50 o'clock. Miraculously enough, no
lives were lost, but the fact that the Uto-
pia. which is big and powerful vessel,
was running slowly at the time alone pre-
vented the sinking of the Flyer in this in
land sea with all on board-about fifty
people, including the crew.
The Flyer. bound from Tacoma to
Seattle, was in the act OF crossing the bow
OF the steamship, which was en- route to
Tacoma, when the Utopia struck her with
terrific force on the starboard side, tearing
a great hole amidships just above the
water line. CONSERVATION reigned aboard
both vessels for few moments.
Seeing that the Flyer was badly disabled
Captain O'Brien of the Utopia went to her
assistance, and in few minutes the pas
sengers and crew were transferred to the
Utopia and the Flyer was towed into Ia
coma. Though only five miles out 1t re-
quired the greatest exertion to get the
crippled craft safely to port.
When Tacoma was reached it was found
that the Flyer had four or five feet of water
in her. She will probably be laid up for
two or three weeks, as in addition to the
hole in her side her boilers aud steam ap-
paTatus were badly injured.
The Utopia, which runs between Van
couver, Seattle and Tacoma, had her bow
more or less broken, the damage amount
ing perhaps to $500, while the Flyer, which
is laid up at Tacoma. can hardly be re-
paired short of $1,000. The Utopia, after
making Tacoma, came back to Seattle to-

Ben.ota,. Woo, pu1l.rv Bvrn.d.

BENICIA, CAL, Aug. 2O.-A fire that oc-
CURED here this morning at 2:15 might
have caused great loss to this town by
the destruction of Mckay tannery. The
fire destroyed Brown & McArthur's wool
pullery, which stood about 500 feet west of
the tannery, and the high wind that W as
blowing in that direction completely COW
cred the tannery with smoke and burning
cinders, and it was only by the greatest
exertlons and the great facilities for hand
ling fires at the tannery-twelve streams
being used-that the tannery was saved.
The pullery was totally destroyed. The
loss is about $1000, with no insurance.

csc Consul Nosse, stationed in Vancouver,

ATTEMP1BD SUICIDE.
a Fatsrtoo Farmland Shoots Himself
the Head,

the Head,
STOCKTON, CAL, Aug. 20-A young
farmer named Huntemann, who resides
at Linden, has brought TO this city the
news of an attempted suicide at Waterloo.
While he and a lady companion were
waiting at a blacksmith-shop at that
town at s o'clock yesterday morning for a
horse to be shod, a farmland named
John Won Dohlen entered the place and
passed through to the rear of the building.
Shortly afterward shot was heard from
the direction in which Won Dohlen had
gone. Those in the shop hurried to the
spot and found him lying apparently in
the throes of death with bullet hole in
his head aud revolver lying near his
outstretched arm. There had been no
one in the rear of the shop besides Won
Dohlen and it was plain that he himself
had fired the shot. Won Dohlen is about
40 years old. When not at work in the
harvest field he hung around saloons
great deal and was frequently intoxicated.
This afternoon word was received from
Waterloo that Won Dohen was still
alive and it was thought the ball had not
entered the skull, but had circled around
under the scalp. He will live.
