ONCE A RIVER VALLEY
PROCESS OF FORMATION OF cay
OF SAN FRANCISCO.
Not Always the Magnificent Land
locked Harbor That It 10 Today
Report Made by the Geo.
logical Survey.

Few people in viewing the Bay of
! San Francisco think of it as other than
a magnificent land-locked harbor about
which has grown the commercial me-
tropclis of the Pacific coast of the
United States. Yet this harbor did not
always exist, according to a report on
the geology of the region recently pub
lished by the United States geological
survey. for at one time through the
depression now occupied by the bay
ran a great river that drained the Sac
ramento and San Joaquin valleys.
This river probably flowed between
the Tiburon peninsula and Angel
island, and then through the gorge of
the Golden Gate, where at present the
greatest depth of water is 400 feet.
After the river valley was formed the
coast slowly sank and the ocean en-
tered through the Golden Gate, flooded
the valley, and formed the present
bay.
Thus the valley occupied by the bay
is really not so very different from
Santa Clara and Santa Rosa valleys,
and should the Pacific coast sink few
hundred feet lower, those fertile val
leys would form great additions to the
present bay.
But the change from a river valley
to a bay happened very slowly, for
even great earthquakes as a rule do
not move large areas of the earth more
than few inches and it is likely to be
thousands of years before the outlines
of the present bay are greatly changed
by nature.
The region is particularly interest
ing, for it is one of the newest parts
of our continent. Some of the rocks
belong to the geologic period known as
the Jurassic, but many of them are
much younger and were laid down on
the floor by the ocean long after the
Appalachian mountains were formed.
Although these rocks are relatively
young, yet they are hundreds of thou
sands of years old and have been
raised out of the sea and tilted until
in places they stand nearly on end.
The forces which have raised these
rocks and have folded and broken
them are still active, yet their effects
are so gradually accomplished that for
the most part they are inappreciable
in a generation or even in several cen
turtles. Sometimes, however, their ef-
feet is more apparent, as for instance
when they cause earthquakes. Earth
quakes are due to slight movements
along what biologists call faults"
which are really broken places in the
eaTth's crust where the rocks on one
side of the break or crack move past
those on the other side. Some of
these faults may be traced for miles
not, of course, as open cracks, for to
anyone but close observer the rocks
seem as unbroken in most places along
the fault lines as they do in any other
part of the region.
Most of these breaks are fortunately
old, and it is to be hoped that move
ment along them has ceased, but two
are alive, and along one of these oc-
Cured the movements that resulted
in the earthquake of April, 1906. Only
once in several generations are seri-
Ous earthquakes to be expected.

War Aids jap WOODEN Industry.


The army clothing orders received
in Japan since the outbreak of war
have stimulated the tagging ambition
to make Japan great wool manufac-
turing country. The Mainichi (Osaka),
points out truly enough how the in
dustry had subdivided itself in Europe,
where England, Germany and Austria
each had its own specialties and ma
nipulated the fiber in different stages
of manufacture. Seeing that Austria
liza is the great country for the supply
of the raw material, the Osaka paper
thinks it would be much more ra-
tional for Japan to receive the wool
and manipulate it in all stages before
it was passed on to Europe than it is
for it to go the round on to Europe and
then come out to Japan in the manufac-
tured state. 1t therefore exhorts the ia
panese manufacturers to put the nee
essary energy into the task of building
up trade which European compel
tors will not be able to take away
again after the war.-Japan Chronicle.

Turkish Women Most Industrious.

The Turkish women are to be count
ed among the most Industrious women
of the earth. They certainly do vast
amount of work. They make carpets,
screens for doors, work bags, horse
clothing and blankets. A Turkish girl
makes all the kibitka or tents, domestic
carpets and other household requisites
before she is married. If she gets
married without completing this task
it is expected that she will by her own
labor refund the money which her
parents have given her as her dowry.
This dowry usually consists of 100
sheep and a certain amount of money,
which a bridegroom either pays down
in lump sum to the parents of the
bride to collect his friends for sue
cession of horse races and other
sports. An important part is to dec
crate camel with the handsomest
trappings, which are sent to the
brides tent On this she goes forth
to receive congratulations of her rela-
tives and friends. 1t is on this she is
carried away by the female relatives
of the bridegroom. She and her at
tendants feign to resist the act by
throwing raw oats at the other
women.

GOVERNOR RECOGNIZES FORMER srUDEN
BOOKS AND POWERS.

What words can declare the
unreasonable worth of books;
what rhetoric set forth the i'm
portance of that great invention
which diffused them over the
whole earth to glad its myriads
of minds? The invention of
printing added new element of
power to the race. From that
hour, in a most especial sense,
the brain and not the arm, the
thinker and not the soldier,
books and not kings, were to rule
the world, and weapons, forged
in the mind, keen edged and
brighter than the sunbeam, were
to supplant the sword and bat

With a one stamp mill Hersey is now crushing a ton of rock daily that goes $500 to the ton at the head of Palmer creek MT. Hersey had rock before go- ing a hundred dollars to the ton, but has recently run into far richer ore &C., cording to Arthur Jett who arrived from that district yesterday. Mr. Jett also says that quartz mining in that district has recently received a won derful impetus. New quartz prospec- tors are constantly showing up around Palmar Resurrection, Sixmile and its tributaries and doing lots of work with the most promising results. The placer miners are also doing finely. Gus Sci ffert, on Resurrection creek, is cleaning up lots of money. Just before Mr. Jett came over the Seiffert ground had one cleanup of ninety ounces. Dick Daw- son, he had heard, is also doing splen- didly, and Anderson on Palmer creek has a crew working with fine results. On the whole the district looks fine, and MT. Jett says there is a wonder fully large area of good ground still to be developed.

The people of this city should feel duly grateful to Capt. Cochran for his ef- forts in bringing over the mails as the matter is one that is in no sense in the lines of that vessels duties and the early arrival of the consignments com ing by that route is solely due to the kindness of the master Were it not for the Bear We would probably have to wait for another four or five days before getting the eagerly awaited let ters arriving on the aL Touche.

There was nothing of importance de- veloped at the meeting of the city coun- cil last evening, due largely to the absence of quorum, as there are sev- eral matters of extreme importance awaiting the action of the body Councilmen Thompson, Ross, Lehman and Mayor Diamond were the only ones present at roll call and the business was of the most prefunctory nature and soon over Following the reading and approval of the minutes the Clerk read lost of new bills against the city including the pay roll of city employees which totaled the sum of $1,401. A bill of $5.50 which was stated to have been advanced to an indigent for the purchase of a steamboat ticket to the outside was also read. On motion of Thompson and Ross the bills were or dered paid as were also bills to the amount of $52O approved by the finance committee. Owing to the absence of a quorum the ordinance vacating that section of the townsite required for bridge construction, the ordinance re- quiring the payment of licenses by Inherent merchants and vendors and the resolution offered by Councilman Ross relative to the postponment of the date of taxation to Nov. 1, were all carried over until the city dads can get together some day
