The French Vintage

The facts and figures relating to the
French vintage have just been published
and contain much interesting information.
Though the ravages of the Phylloxera do
not appear to be widespread as they were
fifteen years ago. there are other enemies
to the vine which have been doing much
damage, for the area under vine cultivation
has been steadily decreasing. Some fifteen
years ago it exceeded 100000 acres, and
was last year only little over 4,2o0, COO The
quantity OF '"ine made for the last ten
years has averaged something like 7oO.-
100000 gallons, although in 1896 it exceeded
1,000, 000,0 600 Last year the production was
not so large, though it exceeded the ave-
rage Of the last decade. 1t might be
thought that with SO vast a production,
France would not require to import any
wine from abroad, but in addition to about
100000 gallons coming from Algeria, al
most as much came over the Spanish
frontier, while the exports were not more
than fourth Of the imports ''Wine" to
the extent of 80, 600 gallons is made from
ralsins, and from a mixture of sugar and
water with the second press Of the grapes,
and 1t is to be feared that no little of the

are chiefly interested in the result of a big

The people do not wish war, rather, they
are Indifferent, as they always have one in

with the United States as different from
the others. The feeling that exists hero
exists also throughout the provinces. The
queen regent is taking very active part
in the negotiations and has thoroughly
identified herself with the war section of
the cabinet. Her attitude IS much ap-
proved by the officials in the army and has
undoubtedly strengthened the dynasty for
the time being. Her majesty is reported
to have told Senior Sagasta: II received
from my husband heritage for our son
and will never agree to have that heritage
curtailed." At the same time 1t is reported
that the queen regent, is doing much to

ATE, BUT REFUSED TO PAY
Toy Yit Tried to Play With Chinese

Some weeks ago all Chinatown was agog
with the discussion of a swell banquet that
was given by the Celestials. Everybody
that was anybody in Chinese society at

the Mark Twains, the Marshall p. Wilders,
the Gen. Horace Porters, in fact all the
famed after dinner speakers Of the local
Chinese settlement went to the banquet,

The aftermath Of the banquet occurred
yesterday afternoon. Banquets, whether
given by Chinese or Americans, are the
same. Each fellow is supposed to pay for
his plate, no matter If he gets chance to
speak or not, and collectors were sent
around to collect from the delinquents.

A sign of the coming exhibition is the es-
tablishment Of a society here to help peo-
pie coming from the provinces to see the
great show. 1t is called the 'Tirelire," or
little savings bank
This institution sells railway tickets to
and from the exposition to any part of
France on the installment plan, ana also
to the exposition, board. lodging and con-
veyances while here, and guides If neces-
sary. The intending visitor is to pay a
small sum per week for the next two years
and then get 1t all back in a visit, long or
short, to the exposition.
The Tirelire people guarantee hotel room,
board and conveyance at a fixed price in
advance. so that the visitor cannot be
fleeced by the inf1ictiont of exorbitant
charges against which he cannot protect
himself.-From Paris Gable.

ON THE DIAMOND
Winners of Games Played by State
League Teams

SACRAMENTO, April 3.--The San Fran
ciscos defeated the Gilt Edge baseball team
today by score Of 8 to Z. The game was
closely contested throughout and brilliant
team and individual plays were the rule.
Johnson, who pitched for the visitors, while
he was touched up for twelve hits, was
very effective at critical times. The fea-
lures of the game were home run made
by little Drews and a wonderful lefthand
stop by Lockhead. Attendance 1000.
Standardization 10, San Jose tells
the story of the baseball game here today
at Goodwater cove. 1t was a fast, exciting
game all the way through and only one
error was marked up against the home
team, when Third Baseman White made
an overthrow to Selma on first and allowed
the only San Josean to reach second. For
seven innings only one man reached third.
Iberg and PeterV were the battery for
Stockton and Fountain and Ford were the
San Jose battery.
Fresno-Athletic park was we'll filled this
rafternoon to witness the opening of the
baseball season Of 1898 in Fresno, under the
auspices of the California state league in
game between the San Franciscos and
Fresnos. The home team Is not yet COM
pleted, two players being unable to arrive
in time for today's game. Both teams put
up good ball. but the lack Of team work
in the home team was quite in evidence,
and resulted in their losing the game by a
score of to 8. \
Santa Cruz nine defeated the Oakland
team today by a score of 2 to l. The batter
les were BALI and Daubenis for Santa Cruz
and Krug and Hammond for Oakland.
San Oakland won easily to-
day from Sacramento at Recreation park
The Statesmen were defeated by the score
Of to 0. The exhibition, however was a
pretty one and Sacramento is entitled to
credit for holding such team as the Oak
lands down to a lower score than the aver
age of the National league. The features
Of the game were the double plays from
Moskiman to Dean and from Smith to
Reitz to Caverly. Donovan. first basenar

glory by several sensational stops Of

The total displacement tonnage of the
United States flying squadron is 3,1O9, and
of the Spanish $4,000.
The average horse power of the United
States vessels is 1850, and that of the
Spanish l,750.
The average rate Of speed of the four
United States ships is 21as knots per hour,
while the Spanish fleet has to content itself
with 10 knots. 1t Is possible that the
battleship Massachusetts will be supplant-
ed by the New York, and the aver
age of speed and fighting capability of the
squadron will be increased, 1t must be
remembered that the Brooklyn and New
York are two of the finest types of fighting
machines in the world, having their main
batteries supplied with rapid-fire guns
with which very few warships are equipped
except in secondary battery. The great
point of advantage Of this fleet, however,
is in thickness of armor, calber of guns,
and the fighting quality of the men. There
are five 1S-inch guns on the American fly
ing squadron, while the whole Spanish
navy has not one, and only two Pinch
guns. OF 12-inch guns, our squadron has
four, and of S-inch guns, fourteen. Spain's
four selected vessels have five 11-inch
guns, and the rest are mainly 5-inch
These are the points of adantavge that
Commodore Schley's feet would be Likely
