He Was Aftervard Arrested for Dis charging Firearms in the
 City Limits.

Jerry Marshall, a colored man en- ployed as a waiter at the Hoffman Sa- loon on Market street, shot at his wife last evening during a quarrel. in their rooms in the Rosedale at 321 Ellis street. Soon after the shot was heard, police off, cers hurried to the scene, but people in the room denied that anything had hap pened.
 A search revealed the fact that a small bullet had lodged in the folding door be- tween the rooms in which the couple had been stopping, and, after going through the door. had fallen to the floor.
 Upon being questioned the parties at first said that nothing had occurred in the building, but afterward stated that they had heard shot Upon being taken to the prison Marshall denied having at tempted to take the life of his wife. No charge was made against the man by the woman, but charge was placed against him by the police for having discharged firearms in the city limits.

FLAMES FILL
 THE TUNNEL Santa Fe Railway Once More Blocked Near
 Williams.
Scarcely Cleared for Traffic Before the Fire Breaks
 Out Anew.
WOrknnen Paid a Dollar an Hour to Risk Their Lives for the
 Company.
Special Dispatch to The can.

WILLIAMS, AriZ., Jan. 2S.-Shortly after Il o'clock last night the tunnel at Johnson's Canyon, nine miles west of here, was ready once more for the passage of trains, after a week of ar duous labor by a large force of work men and great expense for the railroad company.
 Suddenly the smoke began to pour forth from the entrance, and the ca tastrophe of last week was repeated. In an incredibly short period the whole was a mass of flames, which mounted high into the air at either end of the tunnel, with such intense heat that all efforts on the part of the woTkmen to fight the flames were useless. The sup position is that it kindled again from the timbers being in contact with the heated limestone rocks, of which the sides of the canyon are formed, and the crumbling of which caused so much danger to the workmen last week. Fortunately, there were no men In the tunnel at the time, as trains were ex- pected to pass through soon, the rail- road company having given notice that the traffic would be resumed to-day.
 Men are very 10th to work at the clearing away of the debris, and those who face the danger are paid at the rate of $1 an hour by the company. many workmen making from $15 to s20 a day The railroad officials and a corps of engineers are at the tunnel ready to begin the work of retimber- ing as soon as the flames have spent themselves. The employees of the com- pany at this point are using every pre- caution to see that the passengers are not greatly inconvenienced during the transfer, and good trail has been con- structed around the mountain, over which the baggage, mail and express are carried, thus causing no delay in the mail matter.

KNAPP AT LAST
 UP FOR TRIAL Must Answer for Havinq Defrauded the City
 of San Jose.
Brought to Book Through The Calls Expose of Laxity
 of Officials.
For Months His Case Has Been "Pocketed" and the Records
 Have Disappeared.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Jan. 2S-The case of Charles Knapp, who was convicted over a year and a half ago of obtain ing money under false pretenses and which would still be "pocketed" but for the expose recently made by The Call, came up on appeal before Judge Lorigan to-day.
 Knapp, who is an ex-saloon keeper and tinhorn politician, obtained SIP from the city treasury for work sup posed to have been done by him on the creek. Investigation showed that Knapp had done no work, and he was arrested for obtaining money under false pretenses. He was convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of $500 or serve 300 days in jail. An appeal to the Superior Court was taken and he was released on bonds. The affair was hushed up, and for over a year and a half no action was taken. The Call S expose altered the situation, and at the request of District Attorney Her rington the case was put on the cal endar.
 A strange feature of the affair, and one which was the cause of continuance to-day, is that all the papers in the case and the bond on which Knapp was released nave been stolen. trustee Goss says the papers left his court in charge of some officer of the law to be filed, and the District Attorney says he never received them, so they must have been lost in transit. The regis ter in the County Clerks office does not show they were ever filed. It Is understood that Attorney Edson, who represented Knapp in the lower court, has a set of duplicate papers, and these will be used.
 Judge Lorimer continued the case until next Friday.
 suit against ex-Justice of the Peace w H. Dwyer and his bondsmen was filed in the Superior Court to-day by the District Attorney The action is to recover various sums to the amount of S793, alleged to have been illegally withheld from the public treasury by the ex-Justice while he was in office
 In the complaint filed it is alleged that the ex-official has withheld a num- Der of sums that he collected as fines ir his court. He also compelled a number of persons to pay costs for malicious prosecutions and neglected to turn over the proceeds to the county. It is al legged that in twenty-four instances the defendant fraudulently appropriated tC his own use bail money that had beer placed in his hands. Dwyer Is now ir Oakland.

SEEKING 4 SUCCESSOR
 70 ADMIRAL MATHEWS.
Secretary Long Desires q Competent Man to Act as Chief Of the Bureau or
 Yards and Docks.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-A Washington correspondent of the Herald telegraphs: Secretary. Long told me to-day that he IS considering the question of succession to Rear-Admiral E. O. Mathews as Chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks. The latter's term of office will end March Is. and he will be retired on October 24 As Congress may use additional docks, which will have to be built under the direction of the chief of this bureau, the Secretary is anxious to get a man who will be able to prepare plans and speci- hcations intelligently and be in office long enough to see that they are properly ex- ecuted. He does not propose to have any trouble such as that which has occurred in the Brookly Navy-yard with dry dock No. or at Port Royal. Naval Con structor Bowles might be appointed chief of the bureau. but his rank in the service is not sufficiently high. Other officers whose names have been presented to the Secretary are Commodore G. c. Remey, commandant of Portsmouth Navy-yard; ; Captain A. S. Baker, recently of the bat tIeship Oregon, and Commander F. w. Dickins, assistant to the Chief of the Blu reau of Navigation.
 Secretary Long, I understand, favors placing the Bureau of Yards and Docks under the bureau of Construction and Re- pairs, believing that as naval construc- tors have to dock vessels they should build the docks. Representative Hilborn especially is in favor of such transfer.

He Is a Locomotive Engineer and Comes from the Cracker
 Neck District.
PICKED UP IN THE STREET
Being Thrown From Horse Some Very discriminating Articles Are
 Found in Ills Possession.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 2S.-John F. Kennedy, a locomotive engineer, who comes from the notorious Cracker Neck district, not far from Blue Cut. and whom the police have endeavored to connect with some of the many re- cent train robberies in the outskirts of Kansas City. was taken into the hos pital at police headquarters at a late hour tonight under circumstances that have caused a commotion in po- lice circles.
 A man was picked up on West Sev- enteenth street tonight in an uncon- scious condition by persons who had seen him thrown from a horse which he was riding, the horse having slipped on the pavement.
 The injured man, on being taken to police headquarters, proved to be John Kennedy, disguised by a false chin beard and equipped for an expedition that could not have meant peace for his fellow men. In one of Kennedy 5 pockets was black domino mask Dis tributed about his clothing were the several pieces Of a disjointed shotgun. In addition to these were a 45-caliber revolver and liberal supply of cart ridges and shotgun shells. He also carried a lantern.
 When Kennedy recovered at the hos pital he refused to talk, further than to say that he had started on hunt ing trip. The rolice have learned that a second man, who was riding with Kennedy, rode away at a rapid gait after Kennedy's horse fell
 Kennedy has been twice tried for train robbery. He was indicted for complicity in the Chicago & Alton train robbery at Blue Cut on Thanks giving eve, 1896. when between s20,000 and $30.000 Is supposed to have been secured, and for another robbery at Blue Cut on Christmas eve of the same year. He was tried once and the jury disagreed. On his second trial he was acquitted. One indictment still stands against him in connection with these robberies. The detectives have main tained that Kennedy was the leader of the robbers. Kennedy is detained by the police.
 Kennedy boarded with Andy Ryan, a foreman of a brigade of the Kansas City Fire Department, who Is a brother of the notorious Ryan of the James and Younger gang of train robbers. This was Andy Ryans night off.
 As soon as Kennedy'S mishap was known all the railroad headquarters were notified. and through fear that another robbery might be attempted at Blue Cut, guards went out on every train that left here during the night.

HRGERTiHA'S BOUNDARY
 COMMISSIONER DISMISSED.
Officials to Be Retired From Chile at a Time When the War Talk Has
 Somewhat Subsided

Copyrighted, 1898. by James Gordon Bennett
 VALPARAISO, Jan. 2S.-Advices from Santiago this afternoon are somewhat startling. They state that Senor Moreno. the Argentina boundary commissioner, will be retired within two days. 1t is now believed that the retirement of Senor Moreno will be followed by that of the Argentine Minister to Chile, Senor Pinerra. l am informed by the highest authority that Senor Moreno started this thence will take a special train for Buenos Ayres. Minister Pinerra is in Santiago. During the recent agitation over the Argentina and Chile boundary, when it seemed that war was a possi- bility, the dismissal of Senor Moreno as boundary commissioner was loudly de- manded in certain quarters. Just what ms retirement now means is an open question. as war talk has subsided.

MO MAN HAVING THIS DREADFUL lN disorder can afford to refuse himself
 the proper treatment, for if he does not attendi to his case it is certain to de- velop into more serious disorders, which no man wants. Varicocee is a disease that can be cured and cured before your own eyes. Sometimes varicocele is com plfcated with other troubles. A man may also suffer from a weak back, listless feeling, he may be the victim of his own vice or abuses. Drinking, late hours, abuses bring men to think of their troubles, and, like men, they wait until the last moment and then expect a cure while they wait.

COULD SCARCELY RAISE HIS HAND,
Vet took care of seventy head Of STOCK
The farmer who found a friend.

Serious results often follow a strain,
especially when it affects the back, and
few people are so liable to strain as those
who, are lifting heavy loads of various
kinds from day to day. The teamster
rarely. ever overtaxes his strength. Fa-
1niliarity with the class of wares he
handles, enables him to entirely gage the
load he lifts SO as not to put an excessive
burden on himself. But with the farmer
it is different: He is lifting loads of sucl,
varying weights and under such varying
conditions that he is very liable to lift
little too much some day, with injurious
results. Many serious affections of the
great organs Of the body originate in
strain. It was SO in the case of H. R. W.
Bentley, Of Towner,. North Dakota, "A
strain resulted in serious trouble with the
liver. How he recovered and was enabled
to feed seventy head of stock during the
winter, let him tell himself:
"About year ago, sustained an injury
IN my back and shoulders by lifting a
heavy weight. After a time, liver trouble
came on, which so weakened me that
could scarcely lift my hand to my head
while IN this condition, began the use of
pr. J. G. Ayers Pills, and finding. almost
mmediate benefit, continued until I was

cured of my complaint, so that was able
to take care of seventy head of stock all
through the winter, which shows that the
cure was not temporary but permanent"

The action of DR.. Ayers Pills on the
liver makes them invaluable for those
living in ma1aria1 climates. c. F. Aston,
Quitman, Texas, writes:
IT have found in DR., J. c. Ayers Pills an
invaluable remedy for constipation, bill

BUSY BUMBLE-BEES.
The Part Which These Busy Little
Workers Play in the Fertiliza-
ton of Many Flowers.

Barney Hoskin Standish writes an ar
ticle on ''The Bumb le-Bee'' for St.
Nicholas. Mr.. Standish says: The work
of the bumble-bee in bringing about the
Decentralization of flowers is as i'm
portant as that of the honey-bee, and
these two stand at the head of the list
Of insects useful in this respect. Each
has it's flowers which it alone visits, but
there are many flowers on neutral
ground, visited by both. So we may
say Of the bumble-bee, as of the honey
bee, the more bumble-bee the more
seeds; the more seeds the more flowers
especially wild flowers, as the tall bell
flower, touch-me-not, Solomon s-seal,
gentian, Dutchmen's- breeches and tur-
tle-head. But probably the most i'm
portant work this insect does for agri-
culture is upon the fields of red clover
There is abundant proof that this plant
will not produce seed without the CO.
operation of the humble bee. It is i'm
possible for the wind to bring about the
fertilization of the seed, as it may do in
the case of Indian corn, grain and some
forest trees. The tube of red-clover
blossoms, too, is SO long that other in
sects fincluding the honey-bee) are not
regular visitants.
Here is proof that this plant must
have visits from the bumble-bee. This
insect is not native of Australia, and
red clover failed to produce seed there
until bumble-bees were imported. AS
soon as they became numerous the
plant could be depended upon for seed.
Again, the blossoms Of the first crop Of
the medium red clover" Of our own
country are just as perfect as those of
the second crop, but there are too few
bumble-bees in the field so early in the
season, to produce fertilization; hence
little or o seed in this crop. If bumble-
bees were sufficiently numerous there
is no reason why much larger yields of
clover seed might not be expected than
at present. ..
Here is what well-informed farmer
says about it: .s..~
ut was formerly thought that the
world rested on the shoulders of Atlas.
I can prove that its prosperity rests on
the bumble-bee. The world cannot
prosper without the farmers product.
The farm will not be productive with
out clover. We cannot raise clover
without seed, and we cannot have
clover-seed without the humble bee, be-
cause it is this insect that carries the
pollen from flower to flower: securing
its development and continuance. Let
us learn to know and to protect our
friends" &.&&

concrete, to be built to near the top,
where the cemented brickwork be-
gins which is to make a watertight,
"bug-proof" joint with the floor and
weil-curb of the well-room. Of course
this brickwork must come up through
the floor, and the joint must be out
SIDE, and not On top of it, because the
wall will settle. 81. ..
The hanging platform, and the ad-
Unstable form behind which the con-
crete is filled in, would require
separate article with illustrations.
But l consider concrete much the best
as well as cheapest wall, chiefly be-
cause it is as easily built 21% or feet
in the clear as smaller; thus giving
ample room to let down inside tub
ing and do the work in case it should
become necessary to sink, the we'll
deeper.
The practical limit Of size for sewer
pipe well is about two feet in the clear,
but even that is too small to work in
with comfort. But sewer-pipe seems
such an ideal wall that it will be ex-
tensively used, anyway. In that case
the we'll should be dug two Or three feet
deeper after the average we'll digger
says ''it is plenty deep enough" even
if pump has to be rugged to keep out
the water. Then it should be enlarged
for gravel, the bottom pipe rested and
plumbed on three brick bats, filled be-
hind with the.washed gravel to above
high water, and the bottom of the we'll
covered with gravel to a couple Of
inches above the bottom of the sewer
pipe. This gives free circulation be-
tween the water in the gravel behind
and that in the we'll, but no trace Of
mud can enter.
One thing more and the bottom Of
the well is complete. Make the space
wide enough behind the next sewer
pipe above high water to back it solid
with concrete, made, say, of Akron
water lime and gravel poured in be-
hind and, if need be, broken stone
tampcd into it.. This protects the
gravel and water behind from any rats
or vermin that might burrow into the
cavity behind the sewer-pipe bove. 1.
The sinking Of the bottom sewer
pipe through quicksand, by shrinking
on to the bottom end hoop, say Of
heavy galvanized iron, with the cutting
edge projecting a couple of inches be-
low; and the mode Of standing on a
strip Of hard wood laid across and Of
cutting away and dipping out from un-
der water the sand, clay, ETC., and the
mode of making the pipe go down
plumb by striking the high side, On said
wooden strip, with a heavy jar can
only be indicated here. In the case Of
old wells where the wall cannot be dis
turbed with safety,I generally sink
deeper by this method. w. Pike, in
