The Alaska Brewery.

4 representative of the News visited the Alaska Brewery the first of this week and requested the proprietor, Mir. Ernst Beihl, to show him through the establishment that he might see how beer is made in Alaska.
 This new brewery is located on Third street, between Ohman's hall and MT. BeihPs store, and is large frame struc- ture with a cupola over the front part, and it was to this room that MT. Beihl first took the reporter. Here is stored great quantities of malt in sacks, hops, shavings, bungs, etc, and from this room run the chutes to the large tanks or vats below. From this room we pro- ceeded down flight of stairs to the level of the great iron boiler or kettle, which rests over the furnace and in which all the heating and boiling is done. This kettle is connected by a large pipe with vat in which the mix ing is done, and from which the liquid is returned to the boiling kettle by means of a force pump. It is then pumped out and runs through a cooler "a series of cold water pipes-and from there into another tank and so on un- til it is finally drawn off in kegs ready to be delivered to the consumers.
 A great help to the process is the stream of ice cold water that flows win ter and summer through the mains of this city's excellent water works system.
 MT. BeihI has spent over S4,OOO on this brewery and says he can make beer enough to supply all of Alaska. The crewing is in charge of MT. Schick, who thoroughly understands every branch of the business.
 Mir. Beihl is very pleasant gentle man and takes pleasure in showing visitors through his new establishment.
 The steamer, City of Kingston, was cut in two and sunk on Sunday morn ing, April g, by the steamer Glenogle, at Tacoma.

E. d.LOck Sues E. K. Stow for Breach of Mining
 Contract.


 Seattle P-I.
 A suit growing out of an alleged breach of contract for the purchase of valuable mining claims on Douglas Is land, Alaska, was filed in the superior court yesterday by Ernest G. Locke against E. Kenyon Stow. Locke claims that through the failure of Stow to per form his part of the contract, he was compelled to forfeit an undivided two thirds interest in mining property worth 86OOO0. He sues however, for but 5000. for reasons notstated in his complaint.
 Locke's story is that on July 30 of last year he entered into an agreement in writing with Fl. I. Cleaver, Joseph McComb and William Borbridge for the purchase of the Vance and Flor ence lode claims, owned by. them in the Harrison mining district on Doug las Island, for the sum of S6O,O00, to be paid, Sl,OOO on Feb. ], 1889; S5,0OO on May 1, 1899; $5 ,OOO Aug. 1, 1899; S2O,0OO Feb. 1, 1900; and S3O,OOO on August 1, 1900, all payments to be made at the Puget Sound National Bank, in Seattle.
 On Nov 1, 1898, he says, he entered into an agreement with the defendant Stowe by which the latter contracted to assume the original contract and to make all payments upon it in consider ation of receiving an undivided one third interest in the claims when paid for, and further agreed to advance S5,OOO to be expended for development work.
 Locke alleges that Stow on Feb. l paid for the use of Cleaver, McComb and Borbridge the first installment of S1OOO, and advanced 83,OOO of the money agreed to be paid for develop ment work. But Locke claims that this is all that Stow has ever done, and that by his refusal to pay the install ment of 5000 falling due on May l, the original contract with Cleaver, Me Comb and Borbridge was broken, and all rights under it forfeited, causing the plaintiff to lose a two-thirds inter- est in the claims, valued at $60OOO.
 Against this sum Locke allows an offset of S1OO, being the portion of the S3,OOO development money remaining uneXpended. For some reason how ever Locke demands judgment for but 5000. A garnishment in the suit was issued against the Puget Sound Ma tional Bank, where, it is understood, Stowe has on deposit about S4,0OO.

Portland, that two cases If smallpox
existed in the family OF Del Clef-
ton, Lying miles southeast OF Port
land. This is in the neighborhoOd Of
Bitter Creek, where thirteen cases Of
smallpox occurred last year.
There is no cause for alarm over the
presence OF these cases, as they have
been practically Quarantined for over
two weeks. The CleftOn family, con-
sisting Of four persons, said over
night with a family in Arkansas City
about fifteen days ago, in which there
was a person sick with the disease.
The nature of the disease was not
known then. As soon as its charac-
ter was discovered, the CleftOn family
Isolated themselves and we're carefully
watched, Two Of the members OF the
family broke out with the disease
yesterday, and were reported to the
county health officer.

Albuquerque EYiensinn.

Yesterdays dispatches say that the
Choctaw railroad, which has been
making bluff towards cutting the
White Oaks line and building into El
Paso, Tex, now announces that the
road will build direct to Amarillo,
and will then devote all its energy to
pushing the extension from that point
to Albuquerque.
There are the best reasons for
believing that this move is inspired
by the AtchisOn, Topeka s. Santa Fe,
in order to get a more direct line
from the east to the Pac fc coast, and
that If the rad is bIit il will be
built with Santa Fe money under the
direction OF the Santa Fe manage
ment.

WE'D A GOVERNESS.
FOURTH VENTURE FOR A NEW
YORK BROKER.
Twenty Years Her Senior-Third Wife,
Trained Nurse, Had Recently OBJ
aimed Divorce from Him-He Is a
Millionaire.

James Wood Quintard, millionaire
broker at so Wall street, son of George
Qu;n,ard, founder of the Quintard
Iron works, married the other day in
Paterson, N. j., Miss Fedwig Johanna
Baltensberger who for several years
was the governess of his daughter.
The bridegroom is AZ years old, and
this is his fourth marriage. The bride
is 27, and is member of a family
as well known in Switzerland as the
Cu!ntards are in New York.
Owing to the fact that Mr.. Quin-
tard's third wife had obtained a di-
yorce from him it was decided to have
the wedding take place in New Jersey,
and several days ago Mr.. Quintard,
with Messrs. Pennington and Beam,
Paterson lawyers, obtained license.
Miss Baltensberger then gave the
Plaza hotel as her residence, stating
hat she had lived there one day.
The bridal party journeyed to Pat
dent of the Erie railroad, arriving
here shortly after II o'clock. Mr..
Beam was awaiting the party at the
station, and they drove at once to the
econd Presbyterian church, at Church
and Ellison streets. The doors were
Ccked Immediately after the bridal
arty's entrance The ceremony was
erformed by Rev Charles D. Shaw,
rastOr of the church.

sister. She was given away by George
euintard, father of the bridegroom,
who is IS years old. The bridegroom
was attended by Mr.. Theall, a New
York lawyer.
After the ceremony it was discov-
cred that in the marriage license Mr.
Quintard's middle name was given as
Weed" instead of Wood" but it was
decided that another ceremony was
not necessary, the error being merely
a clerical one.
Mr. and Mrs. Quintard Immediately
after the ceremony, went to Jersey
City in the special car, and then start
cd on a southern tour. On their re-
turn they will occupy Mr. Quintard's
residence, in Port Chester. Mr.. Quin-
tard, since his return from Europe last
July, with his daughter, has been liv-
ing at the Savoy hotel.
The first wife of Mr. Quintard was
