IN VARIOUS PLACES.

The recent boom in stocks and the
Wall street, New York, proved a rec
ord-breaker for hotelkeepers. as well
as brokers, and 1t is said that visitors
have been turned away from the hotels
by the hundreds. Visitors flocked to
the metropolis from all parts of the
country and Canada until the figures
Of last year, which were then con-
sidered unusual, have been far sur
passed.
When Lord Darlington OF England
suggested an emigration of eligible
young ladies to Australia-a sugges-

demand for the charming commodity
in Moulton, in Cheshire. The school
board In that interesting village is at
its wits end, because the new school
marms and assistant schoolmarms are
snapped up almost before they put
their feet inside the schoolroom. The
intimation Of their arrival Is usually
accompanied by an announcement that
they are leaving to get married.
Prior to the recent passage OF the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill by the United States senate 1t was
amended so as to increase the salaries
of various United States consuls and
secretaries of legation. The salaries
of secretaries of legation to the Argen-
tine republic, Venezuela and Peru were
increased from 81 500 to $1,000; of the
consuls at La Guayra, Venezuela. from
81 800 to $1,000, and at Pernambuco,
Brazil, from $4,000 to $500. The sal
aries of tne third secretaries of embas-
sy at London, Paris and Berlin were
fixed at 81 800 each. The consulate at
Naples was placed in the $2.50O class,
the consulate of Collingwood, Canada,
in the 81. 900 class, and the consulate at
Niagara Falls in the 81 500 class.

Saved Him from Death and Pat usr.
on the Road to wealth.
San Francisco Chronicle: Captain
George F. Ellis, of Santa Barbara Who
left the city last Tuesday for Alaska
mas mad the experience of being saved
from death by a presentiment to be-
come a Klondike millionaire. -Four
years ago Ellis was a poor man and
gained livelihood as master of q
small craft employed at sea otter hunt
ing along the California coast. Today
he owns several of the most valuable
claims on Ell Dorado and Bonanza
creeks. and he is known to the world
as one OF the miners of the far north
ern gold fields to whom fortune has
been kindest. And this far flight from
the deck OF steam schooner to the
owners stateroom Of the finest private
yacht that can be built, should Ellis
choose to own such a craft, Is all be
cause he obeyed a mysterious mental
warning that kept him, in 1895, from
becoming member Of the crew OF the
schooner E. E. Webster, that was lost
with all on board. Ellis at that time
was financially stranded in Santa Bar
bara, with family to support. He Sc
cured a position OF otter hunter with
Liebes & c., of this city, and signed
contract to go to the coast of Alas
ka, on the Webster. For several DAYS
before he was to start the present.
ment haunted his waking and sleeping
hours that the voyage he was about to
make held death for him. He is
strong, fearless man, but finally he
yielded to his fears and secured release
from his contract. The fate that over
took the Webster entirely vindicated
the occult sdmonition that had reach
ed Ellis, for in terrific gale off Lazy
harbor the schooner foundered, and
the twenty men on board perished. FL
lis worked his way to Alaska, toiled
over the icy trails, and reached the
Yukon in time to locate some OF the
richest claims in the Klondike. Dur
ing his recent visit to San Francisco he
brought his family here from Santa
Barbara and established them in
home worthy his present affluence. Ell
lis has returned to the Yukon country
to look after his interests there. He
will be absent year, and will then
come back to his family and make his
home permanently in San Francisco.

The news was a complete surprise to

believed that the approaching en-

something the Southern Pacific has not
yet had to face on traffic into that

The middle of the largest room in the camp

folded. and having previously drawn lots
for the first "whack," they kneel on the
floor. In his right hand each man holds a
stout leather strap, at the end of which is
a heavy iron buckle. In the left hand of
each man is held. by the end, another
leather strap or rope. The left hands must
either be kept on or very near the floor,
and the strap that is held between them
kept taut. This guarantees a uniform dis
tance between the combatants. They are
quite near enough to hurt each other
severely, sometimes fatally.
