1.-The harbor master had nothing to say
to this and started back, but he had no
sooner done SO than the main halliards
were pulled, the bundle at the peak
broke out, and in second the stars and
stripes were waving before the aston,
ished eyes of the harbor master, the Yam
kee shippers and Captain Semmes of the
Alabama. Indeed, so large was Old
Glory in this particular case that it al.
most brushed the Alabamas decks, the
vessels being SO near together. The huge
flag had been presented to the ship at
her launching and to the excited spec
tators on this occasion seemed larger
than the ship herself.

swore to blow the Humming Bird out of

He never did it, however. as this voyage
hung fire as SO many others did, and as

common falling of lawyers that never
take any account of it.

A Remarkable Edition to Be Issued
Next Saturday by the Wasp.
The Wasp will on Saturday next pub
lish one of the most remarkable numbers
ever issued by weekly journal. 1t will
be pictorial history of San Francisco,
containing sixty pages of splendid half
tone engravings, which show at glance
the progress San Francisco has made,
architecturally and otherwise, since pio-
neer days. The Wasp has purchased the
copyright for the rarest collection of old
photographs of early San Francisco IN
existence. These are all reprod uced faith
fully in the special mum ber TO be issued
next Saturday. They are printed upon
the finest and most expensive paper and
beautifully bound in red green and GOLD.
All the exciting scenes of Vigllante days
are depicted-the shooting OF James King
OF William; the surrender of Casey and
Cora by the authorities, their execution
and that OF other offenders.
The pictorial contrasts presented in the
Wasp's special number are most interest
ing; For example, Market street as it
looked before the Palace Hotel was built
ana New Montgomery street cut through
is contrasted with that great thorough
fare as it looks to-day. All the famous
olu LANDMARKS are thus reproduced and
the great buildings that have been erected
upon their sites are portrayed.
Among others The CALL building tow
erlng to height OF sixteen stories is de-
plcted. Interesting articles by we'll
known writers add 10 the valne of the
Wasp's number. George E. Barnes dis

BEATEN AND ROBBED.
Experience of a. Boysen, an Oakland
Storekeeper, in Saloon on sac

Experience of a. Boysen' an oakiah"
Storekeeper, in Saloon on sac
ramento and Kearny.
Edward Place, a recent arrival from Los
Angeles. was booked at the City Prison
yesterday by Detectives Gibson and Wren
on the charge of robbery.
On the night of July % A. Boysen, who
lives at Lorln station, Alameda County.
and has a store at 223 Eighth street, Oak
land, was in a saloon in the neighborhood
of Sacramento and Kearny streets. Two
men, one tall and the other short, took
him into rear room, knocked him down
and robbed him of a very valuable gold
watch and all the money he had in his
pockets. They beat and kicked him so
brutally that he is still confined to his
bed.
The case was reported to the police and
Gibson and Wren were put on it. They
had meager description OF the two men
10 work with, but they succeeded in arrest
ing Pl ace on Monday, and when searched
at the prison Boysen's watch was found in
his possession. Place positively refused
to give any explanation of how he pro-
cured the watch, and was accordingly
charged with the robbery yesterday. He
answers the description OF the short man
of the two, and Gibson and Wren say they
will be able to connect him with the rob-
berry. They are now looking for his COM
panion.

been visiting Cripple Creek and other
mining centers, and has returned home to
renew operations with greater energy and
with increased forces of men.
He thinks Amador and Calaveras coun-
ties have mining resources that are in
every way striking and little short of
phenomenal. One enormous advantage
over many other regions, he points out is
that mining may be carried on every day
in the year. He says there is unusual ac-
tivity on the mother lode not only in the
vicinity of Suffer Creek, but elsewhere
along the lode.
There is almost double the activity
that have seen in many years." he said
last night. 81 estimate that there are now
fully 1000 miners at work in Amador
County. This is good many for small
county like Amador. There is more in
quiry, 100, for claims than for years.
Amy amount of prospecting is going
on. Many small properties are being
worked, and the mines are in general
way opening out well. The Exploration
Company of London is doing good deal
of WORK. 1t will take the company three
xsars to sink their shaft. The county is
paving for labor and supplies between
s75 600 and 500 900 a month. The work
exfends principally for eleven miles on
the mother lode A good deal of moneytis
being taken out of large number of
properties.
am Amador County there are nearly
200 stamps running. These stamps will
average two and half tons of ore each.
MANY of them crush four tons each day
but putting it at the average OF two and
n half tons there are at least 700 tons of
ore crushed daily.
"a good many Colorado men have re-
Gently come in and gone to work at vari-
ous places on the mother lode. There is
a .nrinkling of men, too, from other parts
of the West. The advantage OF that region
is that the miners can work every day in
the year. The miners have their families
with them. They are all happy and con-
tented"
Senator VOORHEES, is one of the owners
OF the noted Gwin mine on the mother
lode, in Calaveras. Asked about this, he
said the work was now being pushed to
the l400 level, the men sinking as fast as
possible.
"There is good deal of ore in sight" he
said; "It IS low grade. but altogether the
mine is looking exceedingly well. We are
working between forty and fifty men, and
are grading and getting ready to erect a
forty stamp mill. The Union Iron Works
has the contract for the mill.
"Ir regard to politics up on the mother
lode, continued Mr.. Voorhees,, ''the peo-
ple are for silver, though they are digging
for gold. They are for both gold and
silver. BY saying they are fer silver.
mean they are for it in the way that is
best for the country. Tkey want free
silver when il can be had on a feasible
basis, so that no injury will be worked to
the State or Nation. For this reason l
look for the miners to support the Republ-
can ticket this year. and so far as am able
20 Judge they will do so. / think Califor-
5ornia will this fall give sale majority
for Mr.. Mckinley.
''In Amador and CaIaveras we have
been thinking, however, more about put
ting men at work than anything else. We
