A Phenomenon at Yosemite.
Formatfon ol Hail in the Spray ol Yosemite Fall.
Professor Wm. H. Brewer, at the last meet
ing of the California Academy of Sciences,
described a peculiar phenomenon which occurs
in the Yosemite valley, which is interesting,
not only in a scientific point of view, bat also
to the pnblio generally. On the 19th of this
month, in company with Mr. Oalen Clark,
Custodian of the valley, Mr. Brewer vidted the
foot of the upper Yosemite fall. In the winter
a great "ice cone" forms in front of this fall,

The intelligent nse of the ballot is the most

suffrage is common to every American citizen,
it is only by a conscientious, independent and
intelligent discharge of this dnty that the
maintenance of our political system can be
perpetuated.

is perhaps 1,550 feet to the rocky bottom, and
to tho top of the ice cone nearly or quito 1,500
feet. Over tho ico cone tho spray is driven
nriomly by tho powerlul nir-blait produced.
Professor Brewer says that tho day of his
visit was a warm and clear one, and the time of
observation between 12 m. and 12:30 p. m and
tho fall was in its brightest illumination, as it
faoes nearly south. As they nearcd tho ice
cone certain appearances suecested to Profes-
Eor Browor that the spray which drifted over it
wa& (in part at least) snow. To examine this
when, through profligacy and fraud the worst
elements of society had become the most pow

tion engendered caused their downfall. But

During the week tho well known wool house of

It was reported that tho creditors had granted

PATENT8 obtained promptly: Caveats filed
expeditiously; Patent reissues taken ont;
Assignments made and recorded in legal
form; Copies of Patents and Assignment?
procured; Examinations of Patents made
here and at Washington; Examinations made
of Assignments recorded in Washington;
Examinations ordered and reported by Tele
graph; Rejected cases taken up and Patents
obtained; Interferences Prosecuted; Opinions
rendered regarding the validity of Patents
and Assignments; every legitimate branch of
Patent Agency Business promptly, and
thoroughly conducted.
Our intimate knowledge of the various in
ventions of this coast, and Ions practice in
patent business, enable us to abundantly
satisfy our patrons; and our success and
business are constantlv increasinc.
The shrewdest and most experienced Inventors
are found among our most steadfast friends
and patrons, who fully appreciate our advan
tages in bringing valuable inventions to the
notice of the public through the columns of
our widely circulated, first-class journals
thereby facilitating their introduction, sale
and popularity.
Foreign Patents.
In addition to American Patents, we secures
with the assistance of co-operative agents,
claims in all -foreign countries which grant
Patents, including Great Britain, France,
Belgium, Prussia, Austria, Victoria, Peru,
Bussia, Spain, British India, Saxony, British
Columbia. Canada. Norwav. Sweden. Mexico.
Victoria, Brazil, Bavaria, Holland, Den
mark, Italy, Portugal, Cuba, Roman States,
Wurtemberg, New Zealand, New South
Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Brazil, New
Grenada, Chile, Argentine Republic, AND
EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD
where Patents are obtainable.
No models are required in European coun
tries, but th'e drawings and specifications
should be prepared with thoroughness, by
able persons who are familiar with the re
quirements and changes of foreign patent
laws agents who are reliable and perma
nently established.
Our schedule prices for obtaining foreign pat
ents, in all cases, will always be as low, and
in some instances lower, than those of any
other responsible agency.
We can and do get foreign patents for inventors
in the Pacific States from two to six months
(according to the location of the country
booneb than any other agents.
Home Counsel.
Our long experience in obtaining patents for
Inventors on this Coast has familiarized us
with the character of most of the inventions
already patented; hence we are frequently
able to save our patrons the cost of a fruitless
application by pointing them to the same
thing already covered Dy a patent. We are
always free to advise applicants of any
knowledge we have of previous applications
which will interfere with their obtaining a
patent.
We invite the acquaintance of all parties con
nected with inventions and patent right busi
ness, believing that the mutual conference of
legitimate business and professional men is
mutual gain. Parties in doubt in regard to
their rights as assignees of patents, or pur
chasers of patented articles, can often receive
advice of importance to them from a short
call at our omce.
Remittances of money, made by individual in
ventors to the Government, sometimes mis
carry, and it has repeatedly happened that
applicants have not only lost their money
but their inventions also, from this cause and
consequent delay. We hold ourselves re
sponsible for all fees entrusted to our agenoy.
The principal portion of the patent business of
this coast has been done, and is still being
done, through our agenoy. We are familiar
with, and have full records, of all former
cases, and can more directly judgo of the
value and patentability of inventions discov
ered here than any other agents.
Situated so remote from the Beat of government,
delays are even more dangerous to the invent
ors of the Paciflo Coast than to applicants in
the Eastern States. Valuable patents may be
lost by the extra time consumed in transmit
ting specifications from Eastern agencies back
to this coast for the signature of the inventor.
Confidential,
We take great pains to preserve secrecy in all
confidential matters, and applicants for pat
ents can rest assured that their communi
cations and business transactions will be held
Btrictly confidential by us. Circulars free.
Engravings.
We have superior artists in our own office, and
all facilities for producing fine and satisfac
tory illustrations of inventions and machinery,
for newspaper, book, circular and other
printed illustrations, and are always ready to
assist patrons in bringing their valuable is
coveries into practical and profitable use.
