AN ABUSED CHILD.
A Little Girl Compelled to Stay Out
 in the Cold All Night,

It was a pitiful case of cruelty and neg lect that Mrs. Prescott of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in-' vestigated yesterday. During all of Wednesday night little girl had been compelled to stay out in a damp yard, at- tired only in thin white dress.
 Joseph Bini, a baker, going to work early in the morning, heard the sob of a child, and looking around found little Jen- nie Briceno sitting on small mound in a yard at 16201a Stockton street. The child was stiff and numb with cold The kindhearted baker took the little one to his home, where he and his wife worked for over an hour to restore the outcast to her normal condition. Mrs. Prescott was sent for and she found that 1t was a case of cruelty on the part of Jennie Bri- ceno's mistress, Pauline Fernandez. The couple live at 1925 Stockton street.
 There are two other children living with the couple, the man having been divorced from his wife. All complain of being abused, but the little one found out in the cold yard has suffered the most Mrs Prescott found that the little one's arms and body bear the marks of many beat ing and .pinches. The father returned home at o'clock on Wednesday evening and was told that the child had run away. He notified the grandmother, who is the guardian, and in time the mother learned of what had happened. The children were returned to their guardian.

Mr. Moore has brought back with him many Specimens of gold that he claims are of tha finest quality, some of the ore assaying s20 an ounce. Large deposits of cooper were also found by the party. Mr. Moore asserts that there are miles of the coun- try that have never known the presence of the white man that are rich in the precious ore
 c. A. Thompson of Sierra, Cal, a well known mining man, and C. B. Perry, d civil engineer of British Columbia were in the party.
 MT. Moore states that on the 18th of August the party received a copy of The Call containing the account of the de- struction of Cervera's fleet, and that then and there they determined that the next nugget of suitable size found should be sent to Captain Clarke of the Oregon, in token of the party's admiration. By a unanimous vote it was decided that this golden trophy should be sent to Captain Clarke through The Call. Only few days later Mr. Moore picked up from the dry earth on the pr. Thorpe claim a nugget weighing about eight ounces. This will be sent by The Call to Captain Clarke. MT. Moore has 1t among his other mug gets. It is a very beautiful specimen.
 Mir. Moore leaves to-day for his home in Santa Barbara for a brief visit.

WINE PRICES GOING UP.
Have Recently Advanced Six Gents
 Per Gallon.

The shortage in the wine crop of lS9S and the fairly good demand that has existed during the past year have re- suited in advancing the prices or the vinous product during the past few weeks. In speaking of the sit uation yesterday Secretary Hotchkiss or the Wine Makers Corporation said:
 Prices of wines have been advancing steadily for some time, and since October 1 the increase has amounted to cents per gallon. Of course, this is good luck to the winemen who now have. wine for sale, and we feel confident that prices will go higher Our opinion is based on the facts of the long continued dry weather, which will weaken the vines, and the ravages of the phylloxera.
 Whether the condition of higher prices and reduced product will balance re- mains to be seen, but the producers are not much pleased with the prospect.
 'The story that one of the big wine cor porations had cornered the cooperage market is not correct. It is true that the price of cooperage has advanced one- quarter of a cent per gallon, but that Is due to the floods in the Southern States. where the slaves come from, and to the enormous demands of the Standard oil Company and the sugar trust. The con- sumption of the oil company alone is 30, 900 barrels daily. While there. is some scarcity there need be no fear that there will be insufficient cooperage to handle

GOLD NUGGET FOR THE HERO
 oF THE OREGON Captain Clarke Re-
 membered. THE CALL WILL SEND IT THOMAS R. MOORE BACK FROM
 A GOLD HUNT. He Went Into British Columbia Last Spring and in Six Months
 Found Much Precious
 Ore.

Thomas R. Moore arrived at the Palace yesterday from Omenica, British Colum- bia, where for the past six months he has been prospecting for gold in the interests of the St. Anthonys Exploration Com pany of California, of which he is mem Der. Mr. Moore does not talk extrava- gantly about his search for gold, in fact he is inclined to say nothing all that will throw any light on the extent of his success. He went in last spring on a two years prospecting trip and in six months was so successful that he deemed it worthless to waste any more time looking for more claims, but decided to return to prepare for working those that he has To- cated.
 The St. Anthony's Exploration Company is we'll known in the State. Last May MT. Moore with twenty-two pack horses and twelve men, started up the old Telegraph trail for the Germansen and Mansen Creek claims, which are now operated by his company Since their discovery these claims have paid several millions of dol lars. It was the purpose of Mr. Moore and his party to proceed farther toward Northeast British Columbia, in that DOT tion of the country that is practically unknown, and attempt to ascertain if gold was to be found there. The party followed the old Telegraph trail to Stuarts Lake and thence took the trail to Germansen Creek. distance of 315 miles. In and around the Germansen, Mansen and Ev- ans creeks MT. Moore says that he found the richest kind of ground. He admits that it Is far more profitable than Alaska. It has also other advantages. The gold is of much purer quality and the ground is sufficiently thawed out by May to admit of it's being mined So far nearly all the mining has been done on the crudest and simplest lines, and yet the yields have been far more profitable than similar claims in Alaska
 Arrangements have been made with the Hudson Bay Company to carry in from Victoria all the necessary material for the

MRS. PINKHAM's STANDING
INVITATION.

Women suffering from any form of
female weakness areinvited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re-
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk OF her private illness TO q woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish IL she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.
