VIOLET FOSTER CLOVES.

members of the cast understood why
the girl was so reserved, so quiet and so
different.
One day she left the house and
boarded street car for the beach. Her
actions were queer and she attracted
the attention of the conductor. Finally
she asked him for sheet of paper and a
pencil, and when they were given to her
she wrote another note to friend and
asked the conductor to mail 1t. When
she left the car the conductor read the
unsealed note, which said:
The moon is Just peeping over the hills
on my way to death. hope you are happy
tonight. ! am in anticipation of what will
happen.
DOT.
The conductor of the street car
warned the train men on the beach
train. The conductor watched the girl,
and just before reaching the beach he
spoke to her and said that he believed
she intended to kill herself. She con-
fessed that such was herpurpose.
"My mind is made up" she said, firm
ly, land tonight will die"
When he arrived at the beach the
conductor warned the men at the life
saving station, and Richard Blum, one
of the crew, was detailed to watch her.
Blum followed the girl as she walked
down on the beach. He stood in the
shadows of pier as she gazed out over
the shimmering sea. lighted by the
moon an hour or two above the horizon.
She finally threw herself on the sand
where she could hear the ripping waves
For an hour she remained motionless
The solitary watcher in the shade grew
cold and went to The life-saving station
aftera warmer coat. When he returned
the girl was gone.
In the morning her body was found
She had removed her jacket and waist
and had folded them carefully before
leaving them by pile under the pier
Then she had piled sand in her under
skirt, tied it firmly so as to weight heI
down, and plunged into the water. In
the cold water her lifeless body was
restlessly tossed to and fro until found
by the life-savers the next morning.

self in the Bay.

After scribbling her name and fare
well message on the sand Violet Foster
Cloves jumped from a pier into the
ocean at San Francisco and was
drowned. The words which she scrib-
bled in large letters on the beach were:
"Violet Foster Cloves. Violet loves
kindness, and she does not always get 1T
in this country"
Her life story is a remarkable one.
She was 20 years old, pretty and refined.
Her early life was spent in Texas, but
she was reared in Philadelphia. When
16 years old she resolved to earn her
own living, and she went from her
home to Pittsburgh. There she worked
for caterer for time, but tired of the
life because it offered her no chance of
advancement, and she went to st. Louis.
She remained in ST. Louis several
months, and then continued towards
the Golden Gate, reaching San Fran
cisco a year ago.
She had taste for music and a long
ing for stage career. Her first employ
ment in San Francisco was as govern
ness in private family. While thus en-
gagged she met Mrs. M. H. De Young,
and to that lady she confined her hopes
and ambition. Mrs. De Young became

For several weeks Miss Cloves oc-
cupied place in the chorus of the
opera, but she attracted far more atten-
ton than she desired. She was prettier
than the other girls and she could sing
better. She seemed to be intended for
something better, and later it was
learned that the dainty little chorus
girl was taking lessons in voice culture
from capable instructor who was paid

The new mill of the Commonwealth Mining and Milling company is near ing completion, and when finished will be of s capacity of GO tons rer day. Iu the construction of the mlll suflicien. space was reserved oa the crusher floor to allow the placing ol an additional cru her of tie same cs- pacity, These crushers are Of the TO- ,ary cylindrical type, using iron balls ss crushers, and the pulp passes through screens fixed in the side of the drum shaped casing and then te the settling tanks, of which there are 9. After passing through eigh, pane and four large settlers, the pulp is then passed over four vanners snd concentrated.
 The new working shaft is being sunk immediately above the dumping floor Of the mill, so that the ore will be dumped from the skip" or "giT- sffs" directly into the crusher, there by saving the time and expense usu- ally incurred in transportation from mine to mill.
 The engine is Of the Corliss type, compound, with capacity of 200 horse power.
 The daily shipments of ore 10 the smelters continue as usual, but no one, not ia the employ et the com pany, is allowed 10 know anything relative thereto; consequently ns es- timate can be placed upon the amount or value of the ere shipped.

Constantinople. July 12.-Queen Vic
toria, Emperor William, Emperor
Nicholas. President Faure and King
Humbert have replied to the telegram
received by them from the sultan, and
all gave advice similar to that sent by
Emperor Francis Joseph.
Emperor William says in substance
that he regrets his inability to disas-
sociate himself from the views held by
the other powers.
Replies to a circular of the Turkish
government to the powers relative to
the frontier question have also been
received by the ambassadors. They
all decline to admit the Turkish pre-
tensions.
The porte has sent another circular
to the powers. proposing that, in view
of the disturbed conditions existing in
Crete, Turkey send reinforcements to
the islands. To this the powers have
also replied. endeavoring to dissuade
the porte from such a course.
This later proposal on the part of the
Turkish governments held to indicate
that the sultan does not intend to yield
in regard to the frontier question.

~ehylrg IN Horses" was the subject
OF an interesting discussion Il a recent
meeting OF English veterinarians. It
is usual 10 connect shying with some
defect Of vision. As theoretical ex-
PLANTATION this has q FEASIBILITY which
disarms doubt and leads one 10 accept
as authoritative the oft-repeated state
ment. II is urged, however. that ex-
peTience Is against this theory. Near
" all young horses shy, but when
properly broken and got into regular
work cease 10 do 50. Some are In
properly broken, and continue 70 shy
more or less. 4 few are guilty Of shy
ing all their lives, no matter what care
is taken 10 form their habits. One OF
the speakers, Mr. K. c. Irving, said:
IF shying depended upon imperfect
vision, one would expect horses 70 shy
in about the same degree al all kinds
Of strange and terrifying sights This
is not the case. Some horses viii new
er face an engine Of any kind Some
viii stand perfectly still alongside
thrashing-machine, but always shy az
q locomotive road-engine. Some horses
shy only when passing a train, ana.
strange 10 say, Of these one viii object
TO meet it, whilst the other objects 70
overtaking IT, 4 horse thSt viii face
a locomotive viii often shy al a news
paper on the road or a brsdge over il
Whilst one horse SHES dangerously on
a country road and will pass anything
in q crowded street, another is steady
slOng the country lane and unsafe in
town. This behavior cannot be rec
onciled with the theory OF imperfect
vision. II seems more a matter Of tenn
permanent and habit The defect, in
fAct. is in his brain, not in his eye; this
is confirmed by experience Of horses
with defective eyes. Horses With par
tlal or complete cataracts, with small
or large eorneal opacities, behave IN
much the same way as before their de-
fects were noticed. A quiet, good
hammered horse remains as he was
and shying does not seem, when Il ex-
lists, 10 get worse as the vision be-
comes more and more defective" II
is notable in this connection that
Hayes, in his book on Horsebreak-
ing" does not treat Of shyness in his
chapter on Faults OF Temper" but in
cludes it 10 the chapter on Faults OF
Mouth" ard gives advice for its treat
ment. II NAY be concluded, therefore.
that he considers shying mainly as a
bad habit which has not been over
come by proper breaking and training.

MRS. MAVERICKS CASE.
President Mckinley Will Aid the Prisoner
in Her Release.

III Her Release
New York, July ia dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says;
The chances of the release of Mrs.
Maybrick from Wol1ing prison, Eng
land, are considered to be more favor
able than at any time during her i'm
prisonment.
Judge L. D. Yarrell of this city,
counsel for Mrs. Maybrick, recently
called on President Mckinley, and the
president is understood to have held
out much encouragement for the pris-
oner. Judge Yarrell says:
MY audience with the president
was very pleasant, and was of some
length. He appeared deeply interest
ed in the matter, and the documents
and letters which l submitted to him
were not given mere passing glance,
as the president considered them faith
fully. 1 believe he has instructed the
proper persons to do all in their power
to secure a speedy release. Embassa-
dor Hay as is known, has already pre-
scented the petition and papers asking
Mrs. May bricks freedom, and I firmly
believe she will secure it. Undoubt-
edly the greatest difficulty experienced
in getting this unfortunate woman re-
leased is the seeming indifference on
the part of the people of America.
They don't seem to care anything for
her. They don't seem to care how long
she remains in prison.
