ations on the Yukon.
TACOMA. WASH, Oct. Son Klondike
River and Bonanza Creek quartz veins
have been found which indicate that
within a year or two quartz mining will
become an important pars of the gold
producing operations on the Yukon.
Across the river from Dawson some NAM
moth ledges are being opened by men en-
ployed by the Cudahys oil Chicago and
the North American Transportation and
Trading Company. Powder has been
taken up the river on the com pany's
steamers, and with this extensive blast
ing operations are in progress. The
Juneau Mining Record publishes a letter
from Henry kaufman al Dawson which
says that the opening of these quartz
ledges is so expensive that the ore will
have 10 be very rich to justify develop
ment, nevertheless quartz running high
in free milling gold has been found, and
the work already done shows the exist
ence of large bodies of the ore.
1t Is announced at Dawson that the
North American Transportation and Trad
ing Company will have a stamp mill on
the ground next'summer, and, if IL pro-
duces the results expected, other mills
will be taken up. People at Dawson are
very much interested in the outcome of
this quartz mining, because, if successful,
it will pave the way for prospecting and
DEVELOPMENT on larger scale than would
be possible for placer mining only. The
quartz found on Bonanza Creek was 10
Gated las; summer by William OIer of
Baltimore, who will return in the spring
to work it. 1t contains free gold. but ,he
extent of the deposit is undetermined.

The Calabasas Constable Again Goes

San Jose creek includes, of course, all
of its tributaries, and among them the
so-called Little Stream.
"The contention of the defendants, that
they have acquired the right to the ex-
elusive use of the waters of the Inter-
ditch, or Little Stream, by prescription,
is untenable. AS shown, the waters of
that Little Stream could not be used by
the East Side during their turn through
the East Side Ditch. and hence was al
lowed to run down the stream.
ut is essential to establish title by
prescription that the use should be open,
notorious, uninterrupted, adverse and un-
der a claim of title 1t clearly was not
adverse to the East Side users or the
plaintiff, simply because they were at
the time unable to make use Of 1t and al
lowed it to run down the stream. A
claim Of title or right by prescription or
adverse possession Is an affirmative de-
Tense, and the burden of proving the
same rests upon the defendants, and I
am Of the opinion that the defendants
have failed to make such proof. Find
ings and judgment will go for the plain

THAT FORGED NOTE
The Supreme Court Grants New
Trial in an Old Case


The supreme court has handed down
an opinion in the suit of Joe P. Taggart
respondent, VS.. John D. Bosch, appel
liant, carried on appeal from department
two Of the superior court of this county
There were two trials Of the case, the
first time the jury returning a verdict
in favor Of the defendant, and the sec.
ond time in favor of plaintiff. The ap-
peal was taken from an order denying
defendants motion for a new trial.
The action was upon a promissory
note alleged to have been made and de-
livered by the defendant to the plaintiff
on August 8th, 1890, for the sum of $4,000
payable one year after date with inter-
est at per cent. The answer denied
that the defendant made, signed or de-
livered said note.
The plaintiff testified that he saw de-
fendant sign the note, and that immc-
dlately after 1t was signed the defendant
delivered it to him; that it was made
and delivered in the private office of
Taggart & Bosch, no one else being pres
ent; that it was made and delivered
August 9Th, 1890. the day of its date;
that it was given in part consideration
for the sale of an undivided one-sixth
interest in an antimony mine to the de-
fendant, the whole consideration o.
which was $3250.
The defendant testified just as posi-
lively that he did not give the plaintiff
the note; that he did not sign it; that the
signature thereto is not his; that he first
heard Of the note some time in the fall of
1891. after suit had been commenced.
while he was in Leipsic, Germany. ami
first saw it after his return from Europe
in June, 1892.

ground that certain testimony was ad.

Sad One Told in Undertones
Mrs. A. v. Bailey, quite a dashing
young woman, was anxious that Judge
Smith should grant her a decree divorc-
ing her. r.from F. O. Bailey, a dry goods
salesman at San Francisco. Cruelty was
the ground upon which she made her ap-
plication, and she informed the court
that her husband had compelled her to
submit to an operation for abortion
Department one has been reeking with
the details Of this kind of crime, and
Judge Smith lowered his brows. Then
this fair plaintiff went on to tell such a
story of filthy depravity, such as ought
to blister the lips. A gentleman who
had taught the plaintiff music for three
years in San Francisco corroborated
Mrs. Bailey's story. He seems to have
been opportunely present in an adja-
cent room on several occasions, when. he
overheard conversations between the.
husband and wife. The court refused to
grant the divorce, not considering the
corroborating evidence sufficient.
In department five Mrs. Lena Blaich, a
very modest and retiring little woman.
poured out story of desertion on the
part of her husband, while she was living
in Kansas, in the ear of Judge Shaw, who
had to bend over to hear the eubdued
tones Of the complainant. Recently she
came to California with relatives, and
desires her freedom from the husband
with whose whereabouts she is totally
unacquainted. Judge Shaw granted the
decree.
