The Dutch have an original way
of collecting the taxes. If, after
due notice has been given, the

place one or two hungry militia

the tax is paid.

CHM bling mountains is better than medi-

Van Allen & Logan, with several men,
have taken up the work on the placer
grounds, which were first opened 21 years
ago, with every prospect for success.
tunnel is being driven into bed rock, the
sluices put in thorough repair, and 30
confident of success are the men that all
the work under way is of a permanent
character.
short distance above is an other placer
claim which is being developed by M. p.
Pels, jr. The gold taken from these
placers is coarse, and q pan of sand shows
colors in great numbers. The other
claims visited in the Urraca district are:
The Jones tunnel, already so feet into the
mountain, to cross cut vein which has
been assayed, but the result kept secret.
This claim is owned by Atkins d Jones, the
proprietors of the Missing Link.
The Elk Horn, Craig g. Hixembaugh
owners, with tunnel 1913 feet in length,
when finished will be $50 feet and will
cross,cut a vein, the outcropping of which
shows 80 in gold and one ounce of silver
to the ton.
RICH MINERAL DISTRICT.
The curiosity of the district, the Black
Tail, is located in side gulch and shows
vein 400 feet in width. The work on
this claim has not progressed far enough
to show what it is worth, but in 400 feet
of rock something will certainly be found.
Aside from the properties here men
toned there are number of Others in the
two districts which are under develop
country on the Bonito and Urraca is prac.
tically UNEMPLOYED. Prospectors are COM
ing in every day, and miners of long ex-
perience are of the opinion that these dis
trlcts offer great advantages to miners.
The metals found are gold, silver, copper
and lead, and judging from surface in
dications there is a world of wealth in the
mountains surrounding the Black Peaks.
OF course more thorough work will be
necessary to fully determine the value Of
the claims already located, but as Mr..
Clutton said yesterday, "what everybody
says is true must be true" and every
district said that better indications for
gold and copper had never been seen by
them, even in the cam ps that are now con-
sidered the Eldorados of the country.

DIED ON THE GALLONS.
After Three Trials on Charge Of
Kayishing, in as Many Days.

Fairfax, Va, June 4.-James Lewis,
colored, was hanged this morning in the
jail yard in the presence of about fifty
people. Lewis was cool, and walked to
the gallows without any assistance. The
charge against him was ravishing Mrs.

her son, some miles below Alexandria.
Lewis had three trials, in as many days,
the jury in the first two cases, being
unable to agree, and in the last trial,

until yesterday, when he admitted that he
committed the assault, and also confessed

THROUGH GROVE STREET.
Hayes Valley lmprovers Contemplate
Boulevard to the Park.

Hayes Valley Improvers Contemplate
"A Boulevard to the Park.
The members of the Hayes Valley I'M
provement Club have taken hold of a
scheme to open Grove street through
Alamo square.
At the meeting held in Mowry's Hall
Wednesday this scheme, which has been
contemplated for years. assumed some-
thing like definite form.
Casper Zwierlein, on being called upon
for an opinion as to the probable cost of
grading Grove street from Steiner to Scott,
distance OF two blocks, stated that pur-
suant to the resolution passed by the Su-
pervisors in $780, at which the opening of
the street had been aut oriZed, ii was
stipul ated that the grade should conform
to that of the park, since which time the
park had been cut down to grade; conse-
quently the expense would not be large
and could be easily met by the property
owners on the street.
A committee was appointed to obtain
the cooperation of the persons owning
property on that street 1t is composed
of W H. Middlehorffe, Armour McLAugh-
lin, A. Parker, J. Peters, G. Zwierleln and
William Currler. They will prepare a
prospectus and have it delivered to each
propertv-owner from Larkin to Baker
streets, and at the same time will invite
them to attend the next meeting OF the
club, when final action will be taken upon
this undertaking.
A. A. Reiter spoke upon the necessity of
having Grove street declared a boulevard,
over which prisons can go direct to
Golden Gate Park without the necessity
OF having to cross any of the streets over
which straeicars now travel.
These ideas meet with the unanim GUS
approval of the mem bers of the club.

for back salary alleged to be owing to the

for back salary alleged to be owing to the
old incumbent OF the Office.
The appointment of A. L. OFT has reused
Joseph McClain, who was made chief ten
years ago, and who declares that he is chief
yet and proposes to find out why a sue
cessor was summarily appointed without
notification to him.
II don't propose TO have the m ride over
me like that" said McClain to-day. ~
was appointed fire chief ten years ago and
have never resigned, nor have I been no.
titled of my removal from Office. For four
years 1 served at a salary of $40 per
month. Then 1 worked for nothing, never
drawing my salary. Now there is SIX
years pay due me, and unless the town
board rays me or makes some explanation
l shall put my claim in the hands OF an
attorney.
"Simp ply because I have not been max
ing demands for my salary is no reason
why it should be decided that l have not
been serving. l have acted as chief and
have turned out TO every fire, and do not
propose to stand the treatment l have re-
ceived."
McClain was appointed under the old
ordinance organizing a fire department.
The present Board OF Trustees have passed
new law creating department. The
records of the town do not show that Nc
Claims resignation was ever offered, or
that be has ever been formally removed
from Office.
In the scramble of candidates for the
office the iact has been entirely over
looked that McClain was still chief of the
department. The passage OF a new law re-
creating the Fire Department of Berkeley
repeals the old ordinance and thus invali-
dates the old appointment of McC ain.
He proposes accordingly to bring the
matter up at the next meeting of the Town
Doard with a view OF righting matters.
Meanwhile Chief OFT. who was appointed
last Tuesday night, is assuming control o.
the department and is planning for its
Improvement.
