    FORGOT HIS HOME WEALTH.
It ft Fortune la Cellforala to
Become Rich la Coat a Africa.
t- Another strange discovery haa coma
to light In the Hlbernl. Bank deposit
that, have been neglected for many
years by tholr owners. It appears that
Jeremiab Pendergaet, Ion mourned aa
C'ini, Is llve ami prosperous In South
Africa, where be has made a fortune.
It Is learned that he haa apparently for
gotten that 12,000 await him In tha HI
tern la Bank of San Francisco.
The history of Tendergast's deposit
la one of the roost Interesting of all the
old estate that have lain unclaimed fotv
yeara In tha vaults of San Francisco
banks. In the first place It now amounts
to f 12,000, being the largest turn of all
the unclaimed deposits; and. In the next
place, It has perhaps been more widely
advertised and more generally claimed
than any other sum In the list. Strange
ly, however, nearly all the Fendergaeti,
are the real owner seem to have beard,
of this money and laid claim to it, whllq
the original depositor baa lived quietly
In South Africa all these years, heedless
of the fact that his gold lies In the bank
awaiting the owner's orders. Attorney
Oscar T. Shuck haa Just located the
original Jeremiah Pendergast In the
Congo Free State, where tha old man
lives In great luxury, having amassed
a large fortune since he went there as
one of the pioneers of nearly twenty
years ago.
"Pendergast went to South Africa In
1S78," said Attorney 8huck, "being one
of the leaders of a California colony,
'lie left a good sum In the bank here,
since which time no one has ever heard
of him until I got word that he was well
and rich. The nearest trace we ever
got of him here was that he was at the
old Empire Hotel on Pacific street some
time between 1868 and 1870. Hundreds
of alleged heirs have been after the es
tate, but it will no doubt, soon reach
the original depositor." j
A strange fact about the case Is that j
the nubile administrator recently petl-
tioned for letters of administration, al
leging In a general way that Pender
gast died some years ago In Nevada.
Judge Slack went so far as to appoint
Atorney J. J. Dwyer to represent tne
absent heirs, but Attorney Shuck sug
gested that Pendergast still lived,
whereupon the letters of administration
were withheld.
It in quite probable that the claimants
were really Induced to believe that
their ancestor died In Nevada, where
an old miner named Pendergast ex
pired In a fire that destroyed his cabin
and himself at midnight in a mountain
fasmess. They will soon learn, how-
ever, inai me irue

In the Hlbernla Bank to 1S68, went to
South Africa with only a little money,
and is now grizzled with age. but gilded
with gold also. The real heirs to thit
strange pioneer lived In Massachusetts.
The bankers and attorneys, as well
as the public administrator, are won
dering why the pioneer of '49 deserted
his gold here, even to become a pioneer
in the African gold fields. At any rate,
the money Is safe. The distribution of
a living man's funds has been prevent
ed, and $12,000 now awaita the owner's
order. San Francisco Chronicle.

A QUICKSILVER MINE.
Cnforteaatal tor the Dlaeeverara I aa
' Qavernmeal Laud.
San Franolaoo, Oct 1. For a short
time yesterday Christian Soli and
John P. Green, two old prospectors, be
Ueved they said good-bye to poverty
and had jumped into rlohea that
olonded tha fame of Monte Criato from
view. They were the possessors, they
were confident, by means of filing a
mining olaim on a portion of the ocean
shore near the oliff bonis, of the rich
est quicksilver mine in tha world. A
moderate estimate of its value they
thought would reaoh 110,000,000, and
as the ledge was on property owned by
Adolph Satro, a they thought, they
believed they could aoquire it under
tb mining law.
The dream waa abort-lived. Tbey
bad soaroely left the oity ball, after
filing their mineral notice, when they
learned that they bad looated on a
pieoe of tha Presidio, instead of tha
possessions of the mayor. With this
knowledge away went shimmering
dreams of untold wealth, for title to
military reservations is beyond the
reaoh of tha oaveat of the law regard
ing mining claims.
But even in the faoe of this disheart
ening turn of fortune, Green and Soli
atill hope, altbough an inaurutable and
immutable band bad banished them
like Adam from their Eden. Tbey
hope that the government will allow
them to develop as muoh of their olaim
aa lies between the lines of high and
low tide, tor even with this morsel
from the feast they think they can ao
quir wealth enough for all praotioal
purposes.

Omaha, Neb.. Oot 18. Merchant
ftoeenbloom, of Omaha, was today re
fused eitisenahip papers in the district
court because he could not name the
number of representatives each state
has in congress. Judge C R. Soott,
who has obtained notoriety through in

sided. '
Rosenbloom was subjected to a severe
fire of orosa-questiona. He answered
correctly aa to the manner of electing
a president in this country, the re
quirements of a foreign citisen desir
ing to become naturalised, the number
of senators snd representatives in
congress, and the number of senators
and representatives Nebraska has in
oongraa, but when asked the number
of representatives from each state, be
waa stumped. He offered to name

them, but this was not satis
factory to the court Becoming some
what indignant,Bosenbloom exclaimed:
I am only a plain business man,
your honor, and do not have the time
to study up all these questions."
"That does not make any differ
ence," haughtily replied the court,
"if the people don't know any more
about the requirements than you do,
they should never be naturalised."
The oonrt closed the book with a
slam, curtly informing the applicant
that he talked too muoh and could not

THE ARGENTINE WRECK.
The Dlaastar Waa Dae ta a Deaaa Fog
Prevailing; at the Tuna.
Kansas City; Oot. 13. A ouriout
combination of wrecks took plaoe in
the Santa Fe yards at Argentine. A
dense fog caused the trouble. Font
trains were wrecked, but, strange to say,
only one man was hurt, and be not
fatally.
An eaatbound freight train, in trying
to enter the yard, was stopped by a
switch that refused to work. Before
the trouble could be remedied, spe
oial freight, which was following close
behind, came along. On account of
the fog, the danger aignala were not
seen until too late. The second train
dashed into the first one, , wrecking the
engine and several cars. Hardly bad
this collision occurred, when passen
ger train No. 8 crashed into the rear
of the wrecked special, and a few min
uses later passenger train No. 3, the
California limited, plowed through the
rear cars of No. 8.
The only person hurt in these wrecks
was a switchman named Gdbrge Slater,
who bad bis arm broken and his head
badly cut. His injuries, although
painful, are not considered dangerous.
The passengers were somewhat shaken,
but no one else was injured. The
damage to railroad property amounts
to $50,000.

in pugilism. Sharkey was informed
of the latent phase of the attempt to
make a match by Dan Lynoh. Shar
key, who ia thoroughly beut on fight

became quite indignant
"I will wait and bear what Corbett
has to say in hia letter," aaid Sharkey.
"If be does not mean buatness I will
leave for the East and will make either
Corbett or Fitssimmons fight or I will
stamp both as pretenders and ihow
thein up to the world."
Sharkey waa asked if he was satisfied
with the winner taking all of the
$10,000.
"That ia perfectly satisfactory. I do
not want a cent if I lose tbe oontest"
Sbarkey told hia frienda that Corbett
and Fitasimmona were "dead" ones
and related how tbe Antipodean waa
willing to give a bag punobing exhi

Thia is one of the reasons that makes
Shaikey think that both Corbett and

James Porter, engineer of No. 18, and

death October 0, 1806, half a mile
south of Green's station, on the South

tween two locomotives. It was elicit
ed from tbe evidence that tbe south

and did comply with thia regulation

half south of Green'a ttation, which
straight track they bad a right to run
over unflagged when they oocld see.
It being daylight they dropped down
this straight track with the intention
of flagging through the fog aud around
a small curve. We find no one guilty
of breaking the regolationa of running,
but deficient jugdment wat shown as

tbey were Intending to resume.
