Rails are at hand to go as far as La Luz.
Work could be prosecuted somewhat
faster, were it not, that it is hard for the

contractor claims, that he will be in La

cars by the middle of March,

Two Of the handsomest and fastest four
masted American schooners afioat are
now engaged in an interesting ocean race.
They left San Francisco within twenty
four hours of each other and are to load
lumber at Tacoma for Sydney, n. S. w.
From Australia they are to take coal to
Hawaii, and from Honolulu will bring
sugar to San Francisco. Both vessels are
owned by Hurd, Rolph & Co. of this city,
and the captain of the losing vessel is to
pay for a champagne dinner for the en-
ployes Of the firm on the return of his
vessel to San Francisco.
The schooners are the Muriel and Hon
oipu. They are as alike as two peas, their
measurement being 4S3l IL tons net burden,
1872 feet long, 1858 feet broad and II. SIS feet
deep. The only difference is, that of age,
the Muriel having been launched in 1895
and the Honoipu being on her maiden
voyage. So far the Muriel has had the
best of the race, as she went to Puget
Sound in II days. while the Honopu took
Is days. This result was not a fair test
and was expected, as the Muriel went up
loaded. Captain Olson of the Honoipu has
yet to know what his vessel can do, while
Captain Carlson knows all the good and
bad points Of the Muriel. Nevertheless
Captain Olson has every confidence in his
vessel and was willing to gamble that he
will be first back to San Francisco.
Judging from the reports, vessels on
their way to Pacific Coast ports must be
having hard times of it off the Horn. The

former was SO badly damaged that she

REPORT OF PENSION
COMMIe Sl0NER EVANS
Tells Of the Enormous Sums Paid Out
to Veterans of Past
Wa~s

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-The annual
report Of Hon. H. Clay Evans, Commits
sioner Of Pensions, was made public to-
night. The Commissioner says that the
roll is not increasing in number but ip
value. 1t is believed that it will in
crease from the war of the rebellion,
as there are probably 100000 ex-Union
soldiers living who have never had
pensions, and it will increase in amount
naturally by reason of increased dis
abilities, as provided by law. The
amounts paid out by the several
agencies for the year on account Of
pensions under the general laws were
$75,275, 1856, and on account of pensions
under the act of June q, 1890, $66, 255, :
60 The number of pensioners in for
eign countries at the close of the fiscal
year were 1871, having increased 300.
The total amount paid to pensioners
living abroad was $699,S62
There were II survivors and I'll wild
ows of the Indian wars, and As survi-
vors and 502 widows of the Mexican
war pensioned during the year. There
are surviving five widows and seven
daughters of the American revolution.

and the minority. Much, however,
as has been done, a good deal still re-
mains to be done, and it was to this
point that many of the addresses which
have been delivered during the last few
days at the meetings of the congress
have been directed
Concurrently with the congress there
has been opened in the Royal University
buildings public health exhibition,
the inaugural ceremony at which was
attended by the Lord Lieutenant. 1t
would be gross exaggeration to say
that this exhibition is one that attracts
much public interest, for, after all, the
average man and woman sees but little
to look at or admire in sewer pipes and
disconnecting traps, baths and other
lavatory accessories, disinfectants,
drugs, cooking apparatus, and the
patent processes for producing acety-
lene gas. The most interesting portion
OF the exhibits, perhaps, was Profess
sor McWeeny's highly respectable and
genuinely representative collection Of
bacteria. Professor McWeeny, who is
the son of a well known Dublin jour
nalist, has made a name for himself
throughout Europe as bacteriologist,
and has crowded into this collection the
results of his searches and expert
ments during the last few years. With
the aid of a magnifying glass one may
we'll feel terror struck in looking at his
show, at the risks to which he is daily
subject, and but that a good many of
the minute animals which Mr.. Nc
Weeny has brought together and to
which, we are told, every human being
gives hospitality every day he breathes,
are harmless, the human race would
soon cease to exist. Another rather in
teresting set of exhibits is that of
peat manufacturing company, the arti-
cles shown by which are made from
Irish boys. 1t proves indisputably that
the Irish boys might be made almost
as profitable as coal fields If the requi-
site capital and scientific knowledge
and skill were available, and it conveys
in itself a downright reproach to the
Government, which has done nothing,

Love for the American Flag.

The German Methodist Conference OF
California closed yesterday after a three
days session, and before winding up al

resolution was unanimously adopted as
presented by Revs. Boun, Baab and Schu-

Whereas, BY the favor of Divine Prov

cessfully terminated and peace seems now
to be assured;
Resolved, That we highly appreciate
the Christian moderation and wise lea
dership of our honored President McKin-
ley, the loyal support of his able coun-
selors and the bravery, fortitude and
skill of our army and navy.
Resolved, That We, as the German Cal
ifornia Conference, rejoice over the ad-
vanced steps in our country's evident des-
tiny, as indicated in the terms of peace
and we hope and pray that not only shall
Cuba be free, but for the sake of human
ity and the cause of Christ our flag shall
continue to float wherever American
valor has planted it."
