STATE RESTS CASE
IN THE SCHM|Tz TRIAL

SAN FRANCISCO, June 11.-Late
yesterday afternoon the prosecution
rested in the SchmitZ case. Ruef
was not called. Attorney Campbell
says he was taken by surprise. and
asked for adjournment to prepare for
the defense.
The entire morning session was
taken up with the argument of the
prosecution that it should be allowed
to show other similar offenses as evil
dence in this case. Judge Dunn finally
at noon ruled that the prosecution
could introduce evidence to show that
the restaurant keepers raised d gen
eral fund, but he excluded the evi-
dence regarding the municipal broth
els as not part of this case.
At the opjening OF the afternoon
session, the prosecution put Camille
Mailhebeau on the stand and he tes-
tified regarding raising the fund to
retain Ruef.
With the close Of his evidence the
state rested.

When work was stopped On the
Sheets-Ish lease its owners secured
an injunction against the holders OF
the Kalfus lease, restraining them
from further operations, on the
ground that they were working the
same ore body.
The Sheets-Ish lease is known to
have opened up one Of the largest
and richest ore bodies in the camp.
In sinking on the vein, in rich float,
Sheets uncovered the famous high
grade ledge at depth Of forty feet
and the company was shipping the
day the lease was closed down by
the injunction.
The estimate of $1O,cJS per day
production was made by the lessees
after careful investigation, and is
regarded as conservative.
The Sheets-Ish lease is held BY
Thomas Hendricks, James Sheets and
Ish and Boles, the former owning one
fourth each, and the latter one-half.

Advantage of Good Seed.

The advantage of good seed to
the man who raises cotton is shown
by the experience of R. L. Edison
who has planted several different
varieties this season. On Monday
he brought to gin 1435 pounds of
seed cotton of the Mabin variety
and received a bale therefrom
weighing SOP pounds. The same
day he brought 1857 pounds of the
ordinary cotton, and by peculiar
coincidence got exactly the same
weight bale he received from the
1885 pounds of Mabin. Here is a
difference shown of Up pounds of
seed cotton to produce the same re-
suit. It would occur that even in
the vegetable kingdom it pays to
breed up" and that heredity
exerts an influence with plant life
as well as among people and the
lower order of animals. The Bee
understands there is no patent on
these improved varieties of cotton
and that everybody is free to pur-
chase his seed and perpetuate it by
taking care of it if he wants to-
