dike-bound," Watson says, 'I was told a strange story. A son of Chilkoot Jack, one of the chiefs, had been pack ing between the coast and Dawson during the summer and fall, during which time he claimed to have met an Indian from one of the Yukon tributar- les who had struck a peerless district. This latter Indian said he was hunting some distance from Dawson, when he happened to examine the bottom of a creek and found in it what he took to be gold nuggets.
 Not certain of his own judgment, he got a few and travelled down the stream until near Dawson he found a white man living with squaw. This man pronounced the nuggets pure and importuned the Indian to tell where they were found, without avail. The Indian said he returned secretly to the creek and labored there all summer, gathering along it's bed as many mug gets as he could with his limited facili- ties. He erected a cabin and stored his findings there. until he had sevenfold more than he could carry. He then left in search of his friends who lived along the coast, who were to aid him in car rying his gold out of the mountains.
 "ChilkOot Jacks son told me this in confidence, and I believe he really met some Indian who furnished the infor- nation. The nearest he could locate the place was Klondike, which meant anywhere along the Yukon or tributar- ies south of Dawson, probably on Stew art or Pelly River"
 Watson is organizing an expedition in Alaska to search for this treasure.

 Ago.
European Trip Each Had Planned in San Francisco Turned Into
 Bridal Tour.
Special Dispatch to The Call.


 NEW YORK, Jan. 8. Although Alderman Alderman of Brooklyn car ried off the honors for the first mar riage in Greater New York, Alderman Thomas Mcclure was boasting that he had officiated at the most romantic of twelve marriages performed in the City Hall to-day.
 The high contracting parties in the romantic marriage were Crittenden Robinson, 47 years old, and Mrs. Min nie H. Holtau, a widow, seventeen years younger. Both of them are from San Francisco. Both had arrived in this city on their way to Europe. They met in this city by chance last week. MT. Robinson suggested to Mrs. Hoi- tau that she remain here for the cele- bration of the birth of Greater New York, as he intended to do, and she accepted his suggestion.
 Together they saw the carnival on Friday night from the City Hall. They were there again the next day to see Mayor Van Wyck inauguraIed, and together they attended the first ses- sion of the Municipal Council. As they were viewing the sights of the City Hall on Saturday they saw the marriage bureau. They drifted to it again to-day; then decided that they might as we'll take advantage of its facilities, and Alderman MeGuire was asked to make them one. The Euro pean trip each planned in San Fran cisco was thus transformed in this city into a bridal tour.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Smokelass powder has been thoroughly tried i,, the smaller guns with satisfactory re- suits. The new powder is a special va rlety of nitro cellulose, and it is e,ar- anteed not to deteriorate with age nor to lose its efficiency through climatic changes.

 Captain Charles O'NeiI. chief of tbe Bureau of Ordnance, describes inc powder as "a colloid of extreme toueh- ness that burns progressively in a very regular manner, and which may he converted directly into smokeless now der. It decomposes when burned wholly. Captain O'Neil states that . new form of colloid velocities of a about 2oO0 foot seconds have been obtained with hve and six inch rapid fire guns By this is meant that the proiectilas of the foregoing caliber guns are given yeiocities of 2500 feet per second at tba tune or leaving their pieces.

 The usefulness of the Fire Depart ment and it's efficiency in the protec- ticn of property would be greatly en- hanced, he thought, by the addition or a chemical engine to its equipment. He believed the time was near when Sacramento could afford to consider the question of a new City Hall in Keeping with her industrial and com nercial importance. The public health demands that the sewer system be improved and extended. He closed with the hope that his relations with the Council would always be harmo- nious.

TULARE'S DEPOT SITE CLEARED
in Readiness for the Coming of the Valley
 Road.
Heavy Traffic Assured the New Line When Its Extension Is
 Built.
Special Dispatch to The Call.


 TULARE, Jan. 3.-The last house on the depot site of the Valley road right of way in Tulare has been removed and everything is now in readiness for the extension so far as Tulare is con- cerned. The right of way committee has done successful work in clearing away Instructions, and, while some cash subscriptions are still outstand- ing and will be needed before rails are laid to Tulare, these will be forthcom- ing at the proper time.
 It is understood that the work of ex- tension from ViSalia through Tulare to a junction with the Hanford- Bakers field line will be resumed at an early date, and that trains will be running over the new road early in the spring.
 The late frosts, which have been unusually severe, have had the effect of keeping back the buds on the vines and fruit trees, consequently a large fruit yield is anticipated. Every avail able foot of land has been or is being put into wheat, so that with the spring rains, which are now promising. the yield of grain will again be very large. The shipments of stock from Tulare in the past two years have increased many fold, and those of next year win be larger than ever before in the his tory of Tulare County The Valley road people are fully alive to this and will leave no stone unturned in order that they may get their share of the traffic already in view.

stationing of ships at Port Arthur is but temporary and is due to the fact that they would be frozen in if they were to anchor in the harbor of Vladivostok during the winter. They will leave Port Arthur during the com ing spring."
 Do you believe, MT. Secretary" l asked, that there is danger of a gen. -eral European war?'
 NO; I have no idea that war will grow out of the Chinese question at this time. In the first place at the points at which Russian ships are lC- cated, Japanese are established, the Germans have landed and the British and French are stationed at several hundred miles apart. AS I have said before, I do not believe there is any present probability of the division of China. Should such division occur, then this government would have to determine what steps would be neces- sary in order to adequately protect American interests"
 One of the effects of the Herald's elaborate presentation of the Chinese situation is the consideration which the President is now giving to the appoint ment of a new minister to China. It was decided some days ago to allow the name of MT. Page Bryan to be laid before the Senate for confirmation. Since the publication in the Herald this morning, however. the eyes of the au- thorities have been opened as to the importance of the Chinese mission and the necessity for having it filled by the iI, T., fC folr it. This matter will be discussed at the Cabinet meeting tomorrow also, and if they decide upon a good man, some other place than the Picking mis- sion will be provided for MT Bryan.
 Ii Hung Chang's appeal for inter- national justice meets with hearty sympathy from most all of the public men here. While public men gener- ally sympathize with China, and while some Senators and Representatives go so far as to advocate firm mremonstrances by the United States, it is not prob able that anything will be done. l was told at the British embassy to-day that no official information has been re- ceived in regard to the Eastern situa- tfon. The report that a British man. of-war had fired on a Russian vessel is believed to be unfounded, but the action of the British authorities in urging the reinstatement of MT. Nc Leavey Brown, a British citizen, who occupied a high position i'll the Korean customs service. and who was dis missed in order that his place might be taken by a Russian, is looked upon as an indication that Great Britain will see that her rights and the rights of her citizens are fully respected.
