ON THE ROCKS.
A Coal Laken Steamer From
Tacoma to San Francisco
Is Wrecked.

San Francisco, Cal, Nov.
"a dispatch from Point
Arena says the San Benito is
ashore three miles from Bruce s
creek. She is on the rocks
about an eighth of a mile from
shore. Chief Engineer Woods
and five men are on the steam
er Point Arena and twenty
nine are still on board the
wreck. The lite-saving station
sent its line gun and life boat
TO the scene, but it is thought
the gun will not be Of service
as the ship lies too far out.
The San Benito was command
ed by by Capt, Smith and car
ried a crew of forty men. She
left Tacoma Wednesday with
$4,000 tons of coal. This was
5000 tons short of her usual
winter cargo.

H. M. Thurman, who recently went from Prescott to Randsburg, Califor- mia, writes as follows from that camp: "This is wild camp. From twenty five to fifty are coming in every day. One cannot get a bed for cash. There are fifteen hundred people in the camp. There are over 300 tents and shacks up and more building, but there are only about seventy1five men working. The money to support the camp most ly comes from the outside. Very lit tie development work has been done yet on the mines, but for the amount of work done there is the biggest show ing 1 ever saw.

THE SUGAR BEET.
An Extensive and Profitable Industry
 in the Pecos Valley.

Among the delegates to the irriga- tion congress is A. c. Campbell of Eddy, New Mexico, legal representa- tive of the Pecos Irrigation Improve ment company, which has the largest irrigation plant in the country. One reservoir is over eleven miles long and irrigates over 5000 acres of land. A distributing reservoir in the lower val ley covers 5000 acres and in the upper valley there are two large natural springs that feed sixty acres. Water enough flows from these springs to ir rigate from 10000 to 30,000 acres with out storage.
 MT. Campbells visit is of especial interest because he comes from a sec tion where the manufacture of sugar from the beet is the most important agricultural industry
 ''The experiments there have been more than satisfactory said MT. Camp bell to a Republican reporter. 'The sugar beet raised in the Pecos valley contains 99 6-10 per cent pure sugar more Saccharine matter than is found in the same product raised elsewhere. The beet factory in operation there now turns out 225 tons of sugar per day and the farmers this year raised 15,- 900 tons of beets. This is the largest sugar product in the United States. An idea of the value of the industry may be formed when I tell you that 5000 worth of beets have been sold off five acres of land And here is this country practically importing all it's sugar when it ought to be raised at home. The sugar beet raising indus try is practical and profitable, and could be universally introduced in ir- rigated countries. It would take 400 factories with a capacity of 800 tons each to supply the United States with sugar for campaign of 120 days, yet there are only six sugar beet factor ies in the country-at Norfolk, Neb.; Grand Island, Neb.; Lehi, Utah.; Wat sOnville, Cal. Chino, Cal, and in the Pecos valley. We have been experi- menting with the sugar beet for four years, and the people of the Pecos find it the best proposition in the az ricultural line"
 MT. Campbell has samples of the Pe- cos valley product with him, and they are enough to encourage the general introduction of the industry. He will probably place sugar samples with the Chamber of Commerce

The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO

Having met with the highest sue
cess III the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, il has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products The
great value of the remedy as Il medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose OF
manufacturing and selling laxative
remedy, which would be more
pleasant to the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process of manuiact-
uring, figs are used, as they arc
| pleasant to the taste, and healthful
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination OF
plants known to be incidentally lax
ativc, and TO act most benefcially.
II in the enjoyment of good health
and the system is regular, then
| laxative or other remedies are not
needed. II afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but il
in need of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup Of
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most genera
! satisfaction

Thus the heaviest expenses to Korean
man in life are his laundress' destructive
ness, his pipe and his hat Quite poor
man will pay as much as SO for "a hat, and
the amount Of tobacco he consumes is enor-

Korean women to the western eye are
both hidcOus and ungainly, whereas the
men and young boys are often extremely
handsome and picturesque There is no
grace or elegance in the female dress,
which in some respects resembles that Of
the Chinese In Korea all ceremonial
visits are paid In a carrying chair.
Korean women labor under terrible
bondagcs Women of the upper classes
live life Of seclusion. They do nothing
at all They are totally uneducated, and
they are allowed to see no one but their
husbands, parents and n very few female
friends. The horny handed daughters of
the soil enjoy more liberty, although they
are nothing better than human machines.
Besides her household duties and the
bearing of children the Korean wife com
bines the duties of gardener, stable boy
and field laborer, and she has to wait per-
sonally upon her husband. The male la
borer on the contrary, has a very good
time. If he is fortunate enough to own a
small patch of land, he need only help his
beast of burden (wife) during the harvest
season. The land is so fertile and his de.
mands on the luxuries of life are SO mod
crate that the rest of the year he may
spend in idleness and smoking.
