IS AGRICULTURAL LAND.

Land Once Decision In a California
Mining Contention.
A very important decision was rendered
today by the commissioner of the general
laid Office in. reference to a well-known
mining contention In California, known as
the Santa Clara Mining Association or
Guadalupe mine in contest with various
agricultural claimants. The mine is sit-
uated in Santa Clara county, and is claimed
by the Mineral Association as a portion
Of the Guadalupe quicksilver mining claim.
The claimants contend for the whole as
one compact body, while the agricultural
claimants claim in separate tracts.
The defendants are all settlers upon the
= land and contest this claim and submit
proofs as to the agricultural character OF
the land.-oSFhe same land as far back
as 1888, was decided by the Secretary Of
the Interior to be mineral land, when the
same issues were involved, but the claim
of the mineral contestants being subse-
quently declared invalid the contention
on the part Of the agricultural claimants
was renewed in 1898, and the contest has
been waged from that time to the present.
aff1rms the decision Of the local land Office
at San Francisco upon the facts and holds
the land to be agricultural in character,
and in passing upon the CUES sion OF law
involved decides that mineral survey
alone does not segregate the land involved
from the public domain, and that the char
acter Of the public land, whether agrfcul-
tural or miner, Is open to question until
title thereto passes

Queer Way to Pay Rent.
From the London Times,

For nearly seven centuries a curious
old ceremony has annually taken place in
the exchequer on the rendering of quit
rents for certain lands in the counties of
Salon and Middlesex, consisting Of the
choppiag in twain two small fagots of
wood, one with Ratchet and another with
billhook, and counting a certain number
of horseshoes and nails. These are prob
ably the most ancient rent services now
rendered in this country. The earliest
known record Of the first service is found
On a roll of Shropshire serjeanties of the
date of 18th John, 1911, which merely saws:
Riehard de Medler holds one virgate of
land, and renders for the same at the
Feast of st. Michael, two Knives
On Wednesday last the city solicitor and
secondary, as representing the corporation,
into whose possession the properties came
nearly three centuries ago, attended before
Mr.. George f. Pollock, the queens re-
membrancer, when proclamation was made
thus: Tenants and occupiers of a piece
of waste ground called the 'Moors,' in the
service
Thereupon the city solicitor rendered a
Ratchet and a billhook, which have been
long since substituted in lieu of two knives,
wood.
Further proclamation was then made
thus: Tenants and occupants Of a certain
tenement called the Forge in the parish
u ~. SACulcuI 1auGS, IN Inc County sOf
Middlesex, come forth and do your SER
vice"
The city solicitor thereupon counted six
horseshoes and sixty-one hobnails. The
queens remembrance pronounced them
Good numbers"
The horseshoes ard nails, which are very
ancient, are retained in the custody of the
queens remembrance, and are used from
year to year.
Some people may think that such a very
antiquated ceremonial should be allowed to
cease; but the corporation of London wise
ly think otherwise, and prefer to keep in
touch with by-goEe ages in retaining this
very interesting and quaint old quit-rent
service. Her majesty took so much inter-
est in 1t that last year she desired that the
implements used on the occasion should be
sent to her. and they were accordingly for
warded to the queen. through the lord
chamberlain. inclosed In handsome oak
case. with silver shield thereon. upon

Madrid Papers Stirred Up by Senior
Salvani's Publication.
EI- MINISTER TAYLOR ATTACKED
Proceedings in Competitor Case
Justified.
OFFICERS ARE DEFENDED
OFFICERS ARE DEFENDED

MADRID, November 4.-The letter of
Senior Salvani, published in the Spanish
newspapers yesterday, replying to the ar
ticle of Hannis Taylor, the former United
States minister to Spain, on the Cuban
question. recently published in an Ameri-
can magazine, has created the greatest
stir here.
The Spanish papers hotly attack Mr..
Taylor for his utterances.
The Spanish cabinet has now decided to
reply to the United States minister's ac-
acknowledgement of the receipt of the Spanish
note in reply to the representations of the
United States on the subject of Cuba, de-
claring in guarded terms that in reference
to granting autonomy to Cuba, Spain will
do what she deems fit.
1t Is also understood that the Spanish
government is determined in the case OF
the American schooner Competitor, cap
tured in Cuban waters, in April, 1896 tc
maintain that the Spanish officers acted
correctly in making the capture of the
Competitor and that the protocol of 1877
solely referred to American citizens resid-
ing in Cuba.

A Profitable Throw.

From the Detroit Free Press
Had l caught my train that night. -
laughed the man who had nothing to do for
a quarter of century but sit and watch
pine trees grow to swell his bank account
i would probably be a farmer now, trying
to raise mortgage and few other things.
l had gone to little town in lower Wis
consin to see colt that a man there want
ed to sell me. I was good Judge of stock
and shrewd on trade, but greener coun-
try lad never broke into a town. 1 would
have walked back to the farm after found
myself too late for the train, but saw a
hand Dill announcing show that night and
couldn't resist the temptation to see it.
though it did cost quarter.
In my hilarious appreciation was more
CT an entertainment than they had on the
stage, especially as was utterly oblivtous
of the fact that 1 didn't look like any one
else in the audience. Toward the end a
huge fellow came out, tossed cannon balls
In the air, held men out at arms length
and lifted heavy weights. After this show
ing or his prowess he offered $40 to any
one whom he could not throw inside of two
minutes. / was the crack wrestler in all
our section, though none present knew it,
and l felt as though the challenge was aim
ed directly at me. l turned hot and cold
during few seconds of intense silence
Then l sprang up and as 1 came out of
my old blouse shouted: TIL go you. b.
gosh! There was roar of laughter and
then some of those about me urged me not
to go up there and have my neck broken.
But one old man told me to go in. 1t was
g. tough job. but 1 finally threw the giant
almost through the floor with a hip lock-
There was little hesitancy about giving
me the $40, but the crowd shouted till
got 1t. Then the old gentleman took me
home with him and in a week had charge
of all the teams in his lumber camps In
time became a partner and he cleared the
way to make me rich. That was really a
match for a million"

CALIFORNIA; NEW LAW.
Reply to Criticism of the Eastern
Press.

Press.
Los ANGELES, Cal, November 4-The
criticism Of many eastern newspapers In
regard to the law recently passed by the
California legislature, In connection with
the use Of home products in state insti-
buttons. has brought reply from J. W.
Zehandelar. secretary of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association in this city.
The spirit and intent of the home prod
ucts law, prohibiting public institutions
from advertising for any specific brand or
any patent article apparatus, is evil
IDENTIFY misunderstood in the east. The GUS
tom heretofore adopted of advertising for
any brand of manufactured article dis
eliminated against all others of the same
character, and as a consequence eastern
as we'll as California products of the same
character were practically excluded.
The present law does in no way contem-
plate the exclusion of eastern competition
simply providing that quality and price be-
ing equal, preference must be given to Cali
fCrnia manufactured articles. If it is
shown that the price being equal but the
eastern product is of superior quality, that
product will be awarded the contract.
1t was not the intention of the California
legislature to erect a barrier against east
ern manufactures, but simply, as far as
possible, to protect them as Well as Cali
fOrnia products.
