Ed. Gilbert discovered a hobo going
through his ice chest in the rear of his
house on 18th street last night at about
1890, and by putting in an unexpected
appearance rather disturbed the depre.
dator. He caught the man and pum-
m-lled him up considerably before he
escaped. Gilbert secured his revolver
and started up 18th street in pursuit,
clad somewhat briefly with determined
air, and presenting picturesque but
somewhat undigni6ed appearance. How.
ever, by firing his pistol in the air a
couple of times he att, acted the attention
of Night Watchman Bass, who promptly
jugged his man. The man was arraign-
ed in Justice Borden's court today on a
charge Of petit larceny, and was found
guilty and sentenced to 20 days in the
county Jail. He gave his name as Jim
McConn.

On Tuesday afternoon Ed Everett, a
miner at Eldora was injured about his
face and head by premature explosion
in the Lady Alice mine. Everett had
put in several shots and lit the fuses, but
was still tampering with one of them
when one of the other shots went off
Although dazed by the shot, he escaped
in time to avoid the other shots which
followed in quick succession. The ex-
plosion came squarely in his face, in
juring both eyes and nearly tearing of
his left ear. The physician states that
he may be able to save the sight OF the
right eye but that the left one is hope
less. Everetts is one of the three miners
who was in partnership at the time of
the explosion at Eldora when Johnson
and Metcalf were so badly injured. At
that time it was Everetts who placed the
giant powder in the stove and then went
out of the cabin During his absence
the powder exploded, seriously woundlng
the other two.

Blight Of Fruit.

Oar southern exchanges say the
orchardlsts are very uneasy over
the appearance of the San Jose
scale. 1t is said to be gaining a
rapid hold on the orchards of al
most every southern state, and un'
less prompt measures are taken for
its extermipation will destroy the
fruit of the whole country.
The San Jose scale comes from
California. 1t is said to have ex
listed in the San Jose valley as early
as 1870. AT one time it was be-
lieved to have been introduced into
this country from Chlle, but subse'
quent investigations appear to in
dicate the reverse, and that it was
really carried to Chile from Cali
fornia. Various places have been
suggested as possible sources of its
orlgin-the Hawaiian and Other
Pacific islands, and even Japan and
Australia. While it unquestionably
exists in all these localities, it il
not by any means clear that either
of them can be made to bear tn,
onus Of originating it. The only
we'll established fact in regard tc
its early history is that it was frs
noticed, as stated, in tho Santi
Clara region of California.
In 1880 Professor ]. Ii. Com
stock made study of the scale
and with extraordinary presc ienc'
gave it the decidedly suggestive
specific name of perniciosus, whicl
it has since been proved to have
mented only too well.
By 1892 it had spread over the
entire Pacific slope, from San Diego
to Puget Sound, but the Atlantic
states and the interior were presum
ed to be uninfested as late as 1893
when it was first noticed at Char
