AN INTERESTING PLACE.
Concarneau Is the Loading Seat OF Sar-
dine Fishing for All brittany.

Concarneau Is the Loading Seat of Sar-
dine Fishing for All Brittany.
But the sardine-opolis of Brittany is
Concarneau, which lies ten miles south of
Rosporden Junction, on the Orleans line,
from Landernean to Quimper.
1t is one OF the most interesting places
in the country. The old walled town is
completely surrounded by water at high
tide and communicates by bridge with
the newer town built round the harbor.
This harbor when the boats are in is a
very beautiful sight. The sardine nets are
all hanging from the masts to dry in the
sun; they are so fine in texture that they
look like silken gauze. Some of them are
brown, others delicate blue-gray, and as
they wave in the wind they give exquisite
masses and biendings of color.
Sardine fishing and ali the processes of
preparing and packing the dainty little
fish form a big industry, which employs
manv thousands of men and women. 1t
is fine sight to see the fleet of boats go
out or come in when the tide is up, but
when the tide is down there are certain
drawbacks to Concarneau.
French harbors at low tide possess pe-
culiar powers in the way of smells. In
deed, they are absolutely Vnrivaled in
this respect. A harbor smell is large and
powerful; single-handed 1t could put to
flight all the smell army of Cologne. 1t is
something you can almost see, and YOU
can certainly feel it. When you run up
against it accidentally roand corner you
feel sad. and go away and bny French Ca
poral cigarettes to try to kill it. It's o
sort of smell that you can hear trying to
climb up the wall under Your bedroom
window at night, and you get ont of bed
hastily and try to push it off with stick,
and you shut your window and use swear
words. But we must console ourselves
with the reflection that sanitary science
and picturesqueness of old walled towns
and harbors do not go much together

De YOUNG AND HIS KNIFE
Vanquished Republicans Begin
to Locate the
Blame.
Kelly.Mahoney Wing Shows No Signs
of Rejoicing Over the
Victory.

Amid the general rejoicing over the
election OF Mckinley and Hobart to the
presidency and vice-presidency of the
United States it has been noticeable in
this City. and never more so than yester-
day, that the Kelly. Mahoney faction of
the Republican party has ''stood mute,'
as lawyers say, refusing TO raise voice of
glad acclaim amid the general rejoicing.
1t was noticed and has been fully COM
mented on by Republicans who are true to
the party, that there was nothing astir at
the headquarters on Saturday night
While others reioiced, the spurious Re-
publicans sulked even worse than the van
quished Bryanites. nor was there a bugle
blast nor red light to signify that the
leaders Of the counterfeit party had sin
gle hope or cause for rejoicing in the gen.
eral result.
The Republicans who were defeated by
the treachery of the Chronicle are grow
ing angry and making more threats of re-
venge every day. They attribute their
defeat to the double dealing of De Young
and his organ, and the accusation is fully
made that lie knitted the. ticket out of
spite. The failure of the local ticket is
almost universally attributed to him, and
his newspaper comes in for censure by all
who know the situation.

Brydn's Dsfeat Causes Him TO GfUe a
Repnbtcan WheeI6arrotc Ride.
MONTEREY, CAL, Nov. S.-The people
on Alvarado street this afternoon were
very much amused at seeing a small pro-
cession coming down the street headed BY
local drum corps. as the result of an
election bet. The wager was between CITY
Treasurer Gunzendorfer, Republican, and
Night Watchman William Fitzpatrick,
fus'onist. The conditions were that the
loser should wheel the winner in wheel
barrow from the plaza at one end of Alva-
rado street to the cus!om-house at the
other end and back to the starting point.
A proviso in the agreement was that if the
loser should at any time during the march
desire to Quench his thirst the one in the
barrow would pay for il.
According to agreement, Fitzpatrick was
on hand and ready at o'clock TO make
the start. DR.. Wesifall, one of the prom
lnent physicians OF Monterey, marched
just in front of the wheelbarrow with
large paper rooster in one hand. bearing
the inscription ''16 to Nit" and his
case Of surgical instruments in the other
hand. fitzpatrick was thirsty at each OF
the fourteen refreshment places on Alya-
rado street while marching both WAYS.

succeeded in doing so by telling him the

of the barkeeper of the little place on
Tenth street, adjoining Ford's Theater,
the place where John Wilkes Booth got a
drink just before he assassinated Presi-
dent Lincoln. The place was run as

telling the story or the assassination, of
pointing TO small demiiohn and saying:
Booth asked me 10 hand him this demi-

and swallowed it down in one gulp. There
is little of the same identical whisky in
it yet
"Frequently some of those who took in
the story would go further and ask for a
taste of the whisky. This wish was al
ways graiified for the price. One day a
Maine man had taste of it. For this he
was charged % cents. The taste was,
however, good-sized drink, of the Maine
regulation size, too. After putting down
his glass he remarked:

PACIFIC GROVE, CAL, Noy. S.-John
Smith, bartender in the Seal Rock, q
faro den in old Monterey that has been
the scene OF many bloody affray, was
shot and dangerously wounded last night
by Harry T. Force, an Eastern tourist.
Force was in turn pounced upon by Mexi-
| can friends of the bartender, who gave
him an unmerclful beating.
After the Mckinley parade last night
Force and two friends, also from the East,
walked up Alvarado street. around the
old plaza and into the oldest portion of
Monterey. They were attracted while
passing the Seal Rock by the rattle of the
keno box inside. They entered the place
and after watching the game for while
they began to play themselves. They won
several kenos during their stay and, &C.
cording to the rules of the house, treated
on each of these winnings.
Their luck and bad whisky did not seem
to agree. Force became boisterous and on
one occasion failed TO treat and on another
did not settle for the trea.. The barkeeper
protested and informed Force that he
would have to settle for his drinks or quit
the game. The Fastener would not stop
playing and claimed he had already paid
One word brought on another until the
stranger followed Bartender Smith into
the front room and said that if Smith
would come outside he would settle with
him. Smith came from behind the bar
and was about to follow Force outside,
when the latter drew a revolver and shot
at him, the bullet taking effect in the arm
and terribly lacerating 1t.
Smith jumped for his antagonist and
Force tried to shoot again at close quar-
ters. The first shot had attracted the at
tention OF Smiths Mexican friends and
they rushed to the rescue. Forces two
friends fled to the st. Charles Hotel, about
block away, but he could not get away.
He received an unmerciful beating at
the hands of the bartender's friends.
Policeman Fitzpatrick appeared on the
scene and Force was taken to Jail and

the church, and it was probably from tn IS
real structure that Nicholas began his i'm
aginary one, only a small part of which
was ever completed. That small portion
alone comprises the basilica and the Vati-
can Palace, which together form by far
the greatest continuous mass of buildings
in the world. Ths Colosseum is 1875 yards
long by 156 broad, including the thickness
of the walls. St. Peters Church alone is
2O5 yards long and 156 broad. so that the
whole Colosseum would easily stand upon
the ground-plan of the church, while the
Vatican Palace is more than half as large
again.
parts of the present Vatican Palace are
not older than his reign. They are gen.
orally known as the Tore Borgia. from

who died OF poison in the third of the
rooms now occupied by the library, count
ing from the library side. The windows
OF these rooms look upon the large square
court of the Belvedere, and that part of
the palace is not visible from without.
Portions or the substructure of the
earlier building were no doubt utilized by
Nicholas, and the secret gallery which
connects the Vatican with the mausoleum
OF Hadrian is generally attributed 10 Pope
John XIII. who died in Alt; but on
the whcle it may be said that the Vatican
Palace is originally building of the

Ang criminals at one time to-day TO see
two of them pass over high elevation of
land just north of Island Mountain. The
murderers, discovering the pursuers,
quickly left the trail and disappeared in
the timber. The horses of the Sheriff s
men appeared fresh and capable of doing
many hours of service before dark.
Under Sheriff Handy and posse show
no fear in such close pursuit. keeping up
rapid riding and plunging into canyon
trails where there is great danger of being
ambushed. The country about Island
Mountain is rough and heavily timbered
and dark jungles are numerous. The
long, damp grasses that almost obliterate
the trails make pursuit slow by day and
impossible at night.
The excitement in this region shows no
abatement, and threats of lynching made
by friends of the dead man are not idle
and grow more alarming. Cooler heads
DO not approve of such swift vengeance
being meted out and have conveyed their
fears to the posse that in the event of a
Capture it can take the prisoners by some
unfrequented trail to Ukiah.
Fears are entertained that the officers
will be ambushed. These forebodings are
based upon the known treachery of the
two half-breed Ind'ans, Noble and Dodge.
Noble, IN particular, has the sneak in
stincts of full blooded Indian. He has
but one eve, has remarkable ability as
marksman. and freque ntly exhibited his
skill about town by tossing up q quart can
into the air and, with a revolver in each
hand. keeping the can dancing in midair
until the chambers of the guns became
empty. Should the officers corner this
man he viii. shoot and will not waste am
munition.
Last night heavy rain and wind Storm
set in, making trail travel more difficult
and delaying the return OF the messengers
sent to the scene. A volunteer party OF
five men, friends of Mudgett, left early
this afternoon to join the pursuing party,
and with this additional reinforcement
the escape of the accused men seems
doubtful.
