CHRISTENSEN ESTATE.
A Real Heir at Last Found to the
Vast Properties.

STOCKTON, Nov.37.-The real heir
to the vast estate left by the late Peter
Christensen, the aged hermit who died
intestate few months ago near Stock
ton, has been found at last. She is no
less than Catharine Christensen, sister
of the deceased. She resides at the
city of Davenport, Scott County, Ia,
and Attorneys Delegh and Beardslee
of this city have filed a power of at
torney with the County Clerk.
There are other claimants to the
estate represented by attorneys in this
city These claimants are undoubtedly
relatives of the dead man on his moth
er's side. Attached to the power of
attorney is the Notary's certificate of
the authenticity Of the signature.
At the time Christensen died sister
was mentioned as residing somewhere
in the East, and several attorneys have
been using their utmost endeavors to
locate her The attorneys who repre-
sent the sister decline to say what their
proofs are of the relationship, but say
that there is not the slightest doubt
about the matter.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7-Colonel
Hecker with Colonel Lee of the board
which was sent to Cuba to select camp
sites Tor the American army OF occL-
patton, has reached Washington, and
has had several conferences with the
PRESIDENT and Secretary Alger.
Mr.. Alger has approved the locations
selected by the Hecker board for the
principal garrison, which will be in the
neiShborhood of Havana. The place
selected lies about eight miles south CT
Havana, in the neighborhood of the
town of Mariana. Two camps will be
pitched at this point, one ON either side
OF the splendid aqueduct which sup
plies Havana with water. This aque-
Duct will be tapped, and the water
drawn by steam pumps from it to sup
ply the camps, which will be pitched on
a plateau about 100 feet above sea
level
AT the nearest point to the camp on
the sea beach dock is being con-
Structed, and while it will not reach
WAFER deep enough to permit the ac-
conlmodation of large transports, it
will serve to receive good-sized light
ers. The troops will be landed at this
point and marched directly to the
camp, the purpose being to avoid ex-
posture to possible infection in Havana.
Similar arrangements are making in
the neighborhood of Puerto Principe,
which will be the first point to be gar
r1sened, the principle being observed
there as in the case of the Havana gar
rison, of keeping the troops from con-
tact with the towns.
This is done under the best medical
advice, but one consequence of The
ADOPTION of the rule is to oblige the
Government to- look to some other pow
er than the military to- police the
towns. Colonel Hecker has been able
to make a most fiattering report as to
the good qualities as to wha. is known
as the Guarde Civil in Havana for
this work. The men composing this
force are usually chosen from the best
men in the army, and at any rate all
are picked for their physical and intel
lectral qualities. They are able to
command at once the respect and ODE
dience of the rather restless Havana
population even better than soldiers. 1t
is not doubted that they would be will
ing to continue in the discharge of their
duties when the United States takes
military possession of Havana.
CUBAN CAMP AT CIENFUEGOS.
HAVANA, Nov. Lieutenant Col
onel Clous and Captain Hart of the
United States Evacuation Commission
this afternoon delivered to General
Parade, President of the Spanish Com
mission, note touching the location
of the Cuban camp at Cienfuegos which
conveyed the assurance that the Amer
lean officers commissioned for this
special purpose had taken measures
whereby all possibility of friction be-
tween the Spanish and Cuban troops
there would be avoided.
Talking unofficially regarding tvacu-
alton, General Parade said he had re-
ceived no answer from Madrid instruct
ing him to accept as final the date fixed
by the Americans. 1t is expected that
a joint session for determining this
matter will be held soon.

MINING IN SOUTH AMERICA.
A Cleveland Man Returns With
$4,000 in Gold.

CLEVELAND, Nov. Franklin
Ransom of this city, who went to Terra
del Fuego year and half ago in
quest of gold, has returned with nearly
$4,000 in gold. Ransom will return to
South America in the spring. He said
to-day that he had endured many hard
ships during his absence.
Ransom says all gold is obtained from
placer mines, or is washed out of q
magnetic black sand that is blown up
on the seashore. This sand sometimes
runs $3.50 TO the pan. The belt Of
black sand lies under the low tide level,
SO that it is necessary to wait for a
storm to wash it up in reach of the
miners.

Clever Smoke Device,

The japanese have a curious way of
clearing railroad tunnels OF smoke and
gases. Each end of the unnel is provided
with a canvas curtain, hung at the top SO
that when 1t is dropped it covers the en-
tire mouth of the TUNE When a train
enters the tunnel, the curtain ut that end
is dropped, and it is kept down until the
train leaves the other end of tho tunnel.
The result Is that all tho smoke and gases
are carried along with the train and forced
into the open air at the farther end of the
tunnel. 1t asserted that this plungor ac-
ton is so perfect that smoke from an en-
CINE seldom reaches as far back as the
middle Of the train. Scientific men are
puzzled to account for the success of the
