Not rare picture at the rendezvous
of the white rats of the water front"
under the rocky brow Of Telegraph
Hill, overlooking the foot of Sansome
street, is that Of lot Of poorly clad
youngsters busily engaged in pouring
into their outlets, the rich milk Of the
cocoanut. AS they pat their stomachs
in acknowledgment of the fresh re-
ceipt, it occurs to the observer that
milk and honey never received more
cordial welcome to the insides Of
thirsty new arrivals in promised land
than this milk of the c0coanut receives
as 1t flows into. these eager mouths.

Whenever vessel arrives here from
Tahiti or some other of the islands of
the South Seas, with a cargo of cocoa
nuts, the rats prepare for a picnic.
Not that the consignees of the cocoa
nuts are reckless in their liberality.
They are not in the habit of distribut-
ing nuts gratis around the water front.
When cargo Of 10000 to $4,000 cocoa
nuts arrives, and is piled on the wharf
awaiting the wagons Of the commits

usually watches the mountain of nuts
with an eagle eye. His task is not an

The waterfront urchins know just
about when to expect the South Sea

When there are a couple Of piles Of

the attention of the guard by rather
noisily making their way to one Of the

in getting themselves chased of.
These uyhins, let it be understood, are
as spry as cats, fleet as greyhounds,
shrewd as foxes. The clatter Of the

signal for another division of the gang,

woman was not molested. Later In the
evening Runge was brought into the
detectives room and questioned. He re-
fused to make any statement, merely
saying that he bought the STUFF. He
gave his name as Frederick Rugen, but
was confronted with his picture in the
rogue's gallery and finally admitted that
his name was Ruffgee~, or ~
On. April 5, 1895, Runge was arrested
In this city by Detectives Goodman and
Bradish on a petty larceny charge. From
his house was recovered a wagon load
OF fine liquors and champagnes which he
had stolen from the San Francisco
liquor house Of Holtum Bros. while en-
ployed by them as salesman. He had
taken the goods piece by piece and some
how the charge could not be made to
stick. GrN N|
On the 18th he was discharged and the
case dismissed. Runge is German,
30 years old and has been employed for
q time In the Philadelphia brewery. OF
late he has not been doing much, In q
legitimate way, but has evidently kept
himself occupied otherwise.
He owned a horse and wagon which
he used to carry off his plunder. Some
times he borrowed a wagon from
neighbor across the street as his own
was not big enough. The detectives
claim that something over twenty burg
laries and petty thefts can be traced
directly to his door and that the
amount Of his stealings will foot up
over $1,000

THROWN INTO THE BASTILE
S. E. Fulton Arrested by a Policeman
Without Cause
Put Up Bail, but Was Jailed Because
He Had the Temerity to Ask
for Receipt.

1t Is really getting extremely and un-
comfortably "perilous to be secure" in
this holy city.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. 8. E. Fulton
was standing on the street with a roll
Of printed notices of the great Sunday
night debate at. the Wigwam. He was
not scattering nor distributing the pa
pers on. the street. One. officer Rey-
nolds, who saw him, arrested him and
took him to the police station. When
they arrived at the station Clerk ]. A.
Bean was, on duty. Mr.. Fulton was
charged with distributing handbills on
the street without q license. and bail
to the amount Of S. was demanded.
Mr.. Fulton produced the IS and asked
for a receipt for it.
What do you want a receipt for?"
demanded the astonished Bean.
-..'- tss "a -fnatter~ of business, SIR" said
Mr.. Fulton. You may die or be dis
missed before this case is called, and
1 want receipt to show that 1 have
put up. bail to the amount of So"
y9 Search that fellow and lock him up
at once!"sthundered Police Clerk James
A. Bean. Vof
e Thereupon Mr., Fulton was carefully
searched. everything found in his pock-
cts. including a toothpick, was taken
from him, and he was locked up in
jail, after he had given bail.
when the city has come to such a
dark pass that innocent people must
put up bail for their appearance at
court, and may be put in a dungeon
for the awful crime of asking for a re-
ceipt-as business men, always do when
h1oney is paid-the people are in need
Of little reform and little referen-
DUN.
AS soon as it was known that Mr..
Fulton was unjustly locked up, Henry
7. Hazard, j. r. Armstrong. E. L..
Hutchison, S. o. Long and dozen 9TH
ers volunteers were at the bastile for
the purpose OF eeffectingsthe release of
Mr.. Fulton. He was released without
further indignities being heaped upon
him, and he is already looking up the
law concerning Imprisonment without
lawful cause.
If he should win a few thousands, 1t
would be reasonable lesson to some

Buried Thermome eters.

Recent observations made by Prof.
A. Agassiz in the Calumet and Hecla
mine, near Lake Superior, to ascertain
the rate at which temperature in
creases toward the center of the earth
give a slower rate Of increase than has
been found in previous recorded obser-
vations. The observations were made
at various depths by placing register
ing thermometers in holes drilled ten
feet into the rock and plugged with
wood and clay. After the thermome-
ters had remained in place three
months the holes were opened and the
results obtained. The highest tempera-
ture recorded at depth of 1850 feet
was 79 degrees Fahrenheit. At depth
of ten feet the rock temperature was
SO degrees. Between these limits there
was a column Of rock, or 4,475 feet,
with difference of temperature of 20
degrees. or an average increase of I
degree for each 223.7 feet The obser-
vations in the St. Gothard tunnel gave
an increase Of degree for each so feet
and those of Lord Kelvin elsewhere
made the increase degree for each 81
feet. The thickness of the crust of the
earth deduced from Lord Kelvin's rate
Of increase of temperature downward
was twenty miles; from the St. Got6ard
rate, twenty-six miles. Prof Agassiz'
rate would make the crust over eighty
miles thick. 1t is conceded, however,
that the close proximity of the enor-
nous mass of cold water in Lake Su-
perior is possible source Of error in
observation made in the Calumet and
Hecla mine.-PopuIar Science Monthly.

TREED BY A MONSTER 3

Wild Hogs of C.Iifornia's Bottom Lands
Are Very Ferocious =
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, of New
York, Is fond of talking about his ex-
per1ences in California, and during one
OF these narrations, he said:
The most exciting and risky hunt
Ing on the Pacific coast to-day is
among the wild hogs. down on the bot
tom lands of the Colorado river, fifty
or sixty miles south of the old town
OF Yuma. party of us was down
there last year, and l believe we had
adventures enough to thrill our sports
men friends Tor a full generation" A
great many hunters in California in
dorse every word of Commissioner
Roosevelt's opinion, and no hunting
ground for big g.Ine is probably be-
coming more popular than this in the
winter time, wnen the climate along
the lazy, muddy Colorado river is like
that OF July il the eastern states. Two
years ago al experienced sportsman
from Southern Illinois was spending
the winter in Yuma. Tic had a pair OF
very fine. large stashounds, which the
owner claimed could run down and
kill any wild hog along the Colorado
river. One day. he took the dogs and
rifle and went down the river 4 nice
little boar, just right for the oven. He
had not. gone tnir,y miles, a1d land
Ing, before he found band of hogs
and little pigs, and turned his dogs
loose on them when cut Of the tules
near by jumped an enormous boar,
monster. who, with mouth wide open,
paying no attention to the dogs, made
for the hunter. The latter drew up his
rifle and fired, but on cane the boar,
the dogs nipping Kim at every Jump.
The hunter fired a second shot, but on
came the beast. The hunter turned
and ran for mesquite tree a few
yards distant, the hog close to his
heels. He dropped his gun, jumped
for life, grasping a limb Of the tree.
Just as the hog grabbed his pants. and
tore one-half Of them from him, but
he was safe, just out of reach. The
dogs all this while ran grabbing the
hog by the hind legs, to which the
beast paid no attention. The mad boar
seized the bark of the tree in his
great tusks and tore it into shreds.
Finally he turned upon the dogs. in
stantly killed one, wounded the other
SO that it died soon after. Then he
turned his attention to the tree where
the hunter sat. He guarded him until
1t was dark. Twice did the man get
down and try to get his rife, but his
foe was on guard and drove him back
up the tree. During the night the boar
left Daylight came, and so did help.
The men had hardly reached the river
and got in their boat when down came
the old hog after them, in vain pur-
suit.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
