YOSEMITE AND oLIvET.
A Pleasant Evening at the German
Lutheran Church,

AT the German Lutheran Church last
night there was preliminary address
by Rev. OehleT, the pastor, which was
followed by an address by Rev. ]. w.
BAH, President of the California Synod.
Rev. Mr.. Oehler's lecture was in Ger
man, the latter in English.
Rev. Mr.. Ball is on his way to York,
Penn, to attend an annual conference
of the leaders of the church, and he has
just been in the Yosemite on pleasure
trip. So at the outset of his address,
he said:
1.-THE outlook from Glacier Point is
one of indescribable grandeur, impress
ing one with the infinite power of God;
but from Mt. Olivet We get a glorious
view of the realities of heaven. In the
ascension of Christ we get the picture
of Christ's last attitude, which was one
of blessing, and such is his constant at
titude. The disciples glorify God, and
the best praise we can give God is to
render life of Christian service until
the time shall come when we shall be-
come like Him and see Him as He isl

RULES FOR QUARTZ MINES.
Sonoma Democrat Banner: Sixty odd
representative miners assembled in the
Superior Court room last Saturday to
take action upon the important question
of locating and working quartz veins
in this county. William Sherwood was
chosen Chairman and Richard Inch was
selected for Secretary.
District Attorney Otis made motion,
which was accepted, that the chair ap-
point committee of five to draw up
rules and regulations to govern quartz
miners in this county. F. w. Street, j.
F. Rooney, F. P. Otis, w. H. McClin-
took and H. NJ Stanley formed the COM
mittee. The convention then took re-
cess until 2 p. M, at which time the
committee made report.
The old rules and regulations of 1872
were presented by the committee as
being as good as could be selected, and
they were adopted. In brief the rules
demand that the locator shall post two
notices on the claim, giving descrip-
ton thereof. The County Recorder
shall be the Mining Recorder, and his
charge for recording claims shall be
81; all other requirements are to be in
conformity with Section 1924 of the

CRUDE PETROLEUM.
It is stated as general proposition
that Pennsylvania crude petroleum will
yield about rs per cent. of illuminating
oil and less than 10 per cent. of resi-
dunn, the balance being composed OF
gasoline, benzine, naphtha, lubricating
and other products. In Russia it has
been generally accepted that 30 per
cent of illuminating oil is about the
proportion to be obtained from Baku
crude. Consul Chambers, however, is
of the opinion that this proportion has
not been realized for some years past,
owing to the deterioration Of the crude.
