j. r. WATKINS.

In the year 1868, Mr.. ]. R: Watkins first began
the manufacture of DR.. Wards Liniment. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established a living,
paving business, and made the name ''Dr. Ward's''
household word in thousands of homes. Dur
ing all these long years OF tolllng and waiting,
Mr.. Watkins little thought that men could be
found so lost to every principle OF right and
justice as to undertake 70 despoil him of his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, in this
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents Offering medicines said to be DR.. wards or
Gust as good as DR.. Wards" frequently leading
Customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his busi-
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr.. Watkins bought from Richard Ward, the
mark for fullline of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the U. S. Patent Office
All customers are hereby cautioned to see that

Route of the Railroad to the Mother Lode

From T. S. Bullock, general manager Of
the road, it was learned yesterday that
passengers are being carried to the end of
the line, where they are transferred to the
stages operated by Captain Nevills.
Freight is now being carried as far as
Cooperstown, nineteen and half miles
from Oakdale, whence it is teamed to its
destination.
Considerable changes have also been
made within the past three weeks in the
mail service to points along the mother
lote, in many cases materially decreasing
the lime.
1t is expected that the road will be con-
structed TO the top OF the range, thirty
miles from Oakdae, by the 1st of August.
AT this point it will cross what is known
as the Don Pedro's Bar road, where
freight and passeng ger station will be es-
tablished and called Don Pedro. This
Will be about mile south of the OLD and
well-known Crimea Rouse.
Heretofore the mail for CoulterviIle and
vicinity has been carried by stage from
Merced to CoulierVille, distance OF forty
SIX miles. 1t is now taken by rail to Coop
erstown, which leaves only twenty-eight
miles OF staging to Couterville.
Under the old method 1t took thirty six
hours for mail TO reach Coulterville from
tenn this time is reduced to twelve hours.
All the country lying about Columbia
has been receiving Its mail by way of
Milton, and the bulk of travel 10 Sonora
has also been by this route.
What is being effected by this change
may be learned when it is stated that the
staging from Milton to Sonora was over a
distance of forty miles. Under the new
arrangement there is but fifteen miles of
staging from the present terminus OF the
Sierra Railway 10 Sonora.
People previously did not get their mail
until twenty-four hours after its dispatch
from San Francisco. They now receive it
within twelve hours. AT the present time
the passenger rate from Oakdale to Sonora
is So 90. 1t is expected that the new road
Will shortly reach its eastern terminus,
which it is now understood will be Stent
forty miles from Oakdale. When this is
accomplished the fare will be red uced to
s. so.
The cost of freight, which is now being
transported by teams, is from $40 to $l2 a
ton between Sonora and Oakdale. When
the projected line Is completed to Stent
this rate will be cut in half.
jamestown lies within about a mile and
half of Stent and strong effort is be-
Ing made by the people OF the former
town TO have 1t made the terminus of the
road in place OF Stent, The survey, how
ever, has already been made TO Stent, and
1t will undoubtedly require considerable
lnducement 10 have the railroad change
its present plans.
AS fast as the road is extended the stag
ing will be shortened. The freight haul,
however, viii not be lessened until the
road reaches Don Pedro.
1t Is the purpose of Captain Nevills to
operate his stages to Bodie whenever the
Sierra Railway reaches to or beyond So

CHARLEY ULRICH'S PLAY.
1t Was an Artistic Success, but the
Author Obtained No Substantial
Returns.

Charles Ulrich, author OF the play
called "a Celestial Maiden" has sued
Lou HalleIt, theatrical manager, for breach
of contract.
Mr.. Ulrich sets forth in his conn plant
that he agreed in writing 10 give Mr..
Hallett the exclusive right and privilege
to produce the aforesaid play in the States
OF California, Oregon, Washington.
Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Colorado and
Utah Tor one year, for III per cent of the
gross receipts.
proceeding in his complaint Mr.. Ulrich
alleges that defendant induced and
procured plaintiff to enter into said con-
tract by falsely and fraudulentIy repre-
senting himself to be a man well and
favorably known among theatrical people
and In the theatrical profession, and well
able and willing to-produce said play in a
good and satisfactory manner; and said
defendant falsely and frauduently repre-
sented himself TO be man of financial
standing and ability in all respects eoual
to the task OF properly staging and pre-
senting said play"
All these represe atations. Mr.. UIrich
AYERS, were false and fraudulent and
more than that it is the opinion of the
plaintiff that the press notices sent out
by the defendant have been injurious to
the future prosperity of the play. For
these reasons, and because he has received
nothing of value from the defendant, Mr..
Ulrich asks that the contract be annulled
and that the writing be delivered up 10 be
Cancelled by the court.

lecting about $4,000 day for the public
treasury in the form of collateral inherit
ance tax. The Legality of this tax was
Questioned, and great many estates re-
fused to pay. Mr. Curry brought suit and
pursued the litigation to the court OF final
resort with the effect that the constitu-
tionality OF the statute has been upheld.
Since the decision of the Supreme Court
many OF those who were holding off in
their payments have hastened to send in
their money, not wishing to incur the ad.
ditional cost OF court proceedings.
The rush OF payments will not continue
at its present speed long, for as soon as
the deficiency is met the business will
come TO its natural dimensions.
The latest ayment is from the estate Of
Julia Morrison, deceased, the contribu-
uoa amounting to S3350. Other smaller
sums are IN process OF adjustment Tor pay
ment.
new point in this matter has been
raised by Mr.. Curry. An effort was made
by the last Legislature to amend the law
so that while phews and nieces residing
outsiue this State may be- taxed for col
lateral inheritance, snch persons who are
inha abitants of this State may receive their
legacies without payment OF the collateral
tax as requil ed bv the original law.
According to Mr.. Curry's opinion the
amendment was not properly made and
is imperative. He expects TO knock it out
in the courts, and in that event the pub
lie treasury Will be greatly benefited. In
the matter of the estate of the late Mrs.
Annie Donahue alone there will be
difference of more than $4,000, which
sum if collected will be subtracted from
the amount that was bequeathed to J..
Downey Harvey, nephew of the deceased.

BACK FROM THE
ADAMLESS EDEN
Passengers on the Percy
Edwards Return by the
Steamer Alameda.
Found No Maidens, No Para
disc and No Home of
Plenty.
Captain Carroll of the Steamer Queen
Will Seek a Fortune on the
Klondyke.

The Oceanic Steamship Company's
Alameda had an exciting trip of it from
San Francisco and back again. While in
Sydney John Anderson, quartermaster,
fell down the hold and broke hi. neck
Two of the crew of the brig Percy Ed
wards were stowaways, and even with
that extra load the vessel made the run
from Auckland, New Zealand, to Homo
lulu in better time than the Moana.
When the Alameda was we'll on her
wav to New Zealand it was found that
there was a stowaway aboard. He was
Edward M Mittman, erstwhie cook and
steward of the brig Percy Edwards. 1t
will be remem bered that the brig sailed
from here last year for an Adamless Eden,
and some of those who put money into
the venture are still seeking the new
elysium.
Not so with Mittman, however. He de-
serted the vessel at Suva, Fiji, and made
his way TO Sydney, N. S. W. There he
Joined tie crew OF the Alameda on his
own account, and later on was put to work
in the kitchen.
At Auckland, New Zealand, Harry Belt
another deserter from the Percy Edwards,
Joined the steamer. He had a few dollar,
left and was able to pay half fare to San
francisco. Chief Officer Dowdell put h m
to work, and he was the happiest man
that ever stepped over a gangplank when
the Alameda docked at Paclfc.street wharf
yesterday. In talking about the trip of
the Percy Edwards yesterday Mittman
said:
ct was one of the most foolhardy ex-
cursons ever heard OF. There is no one
10 blame but myself, because 1 went into
the venture with my eyes open. We
sailed from San Francisco to found new
Atlantis, ana they ran US up against q
poverty-strlcken place called Fiji. Al
Levuka we discovered there we're no
islands we could pfe-empt and no place
on which We could lay the soles of our
feet without the permission Of some one
of the European powers. Then the trou-
BILE began. We wanted to break up the
com bination and sell the brig. All OF Us
wanted money with which to get back to
San Francisco, but we were all fooled.

guests of the evening. Judge Cooney,
chairman of the committee, gave an in
teresting account of the work thus far
performed by the officers of the league,
and said satisfactory progress was being
made in securing the funds required for
the erection in Golden Gate Park of the
proposed statue in memory OF Abraham
Lincoln.

Belt Jared better than Mittman. He
did pull few dollars out OF the fire, and
was able TO pay half fare from Auckland
to San Francisco. According TO him, the
trip to the Adamless Eden was one of the
greatest sWindles ever perEetrated. Belt
says those who engineered the scheme
never had any island in view, and only
expected to receive so much cash and
then leave the s'gulls" in the lurch. The
promoters of the scheme, according to
Mittman and Belt, have succeeded.

twenty. seven hours at Honolulu. Steam
plows from Germany caused the delay.

that point to Sydney, n. s. W., in German

COL. TOBIN Will QUIT.
Requested by Collector Jackson
to Vacate His Office by
August l.
Stanley Jackson, Son of the Collector,
Appointed as Deputy in
Tobin's Place.

Colonel Jackson, Collector of the Port,
has informed Colonel TobIn that after Au-
gust l there would be no room in the
Custom-house for Colonel Tobin, Colonel
Jackson having appointed his son Stanley
to the position held by Colonel Tobin as
Deputy Collector of Customs in charge of
The warehouse department.
Colonel Tobin accepted the inevitable
with what grace he could and bowed his
resignation to the fates. He had been
under the impression that he was holding
his position under the civil service sys-
tenn by the grace of Grover Cleveland.
But there are more ways of putting a man
out of office than by making him resign.
Under the Collector of the Port there are
TWO official positions not under the civil
service rule, namely, the cashier and one
chief deputy or assistant collector. Col
onel Jackson considers Colonel Tobin as
an assistant collector coming under his
power.
His action in appointing his son Stanley
has been Endorsed by Secretary Gage in
letter dated at Washington July %, and
signed by the Secrela himself. The fol-
lowing is copy of the letter:
AS commended in your letter of the 18th
inst. emp loyment from date of oath of StanIey
Jackson MS Deputy Collector No. 2. class 8, ex-
cepted position. vice j. j. Tobin, superseded,
with compensation at the rate of $3625 per
annum, is hereby approved. Respectfully
yours, L J. GAGE.
On August Collector Jackson will ap-
point Deputy Jerome as Special Deputy
Collector, the position he now holds.
Stanley Jackson is 26 years old, grad
uate of the California University, and
