Prof essor Siinnionds says: "Evidenc ing the skill of the Maoris in fork ing this hard material, the second iutliis respect to the diamoud, al- tmnirh nitifh more fraaile' etc. This would leave one to infer that the material possesses great hard ness when, in fact, the hardaess of jade is 0.5, less even than that of rock crystal, and it can be worked with sand, bv which labor ou? means,undoubtedlv,a!l ot the ahoii ginai oruainents or the Maori were made, bo tav as its tniguitv is concerned, it is the toughest of a known minerals, and this is the reason whv it is so difficult to work It would r quire less tune to polish twenty surfaces ot agatj, which is haidrr th: n jade, than it would to oolish one of jade on the same wheel, Krantz, tfte miueral dealer of Bonn, having a tifty-pund piece of jade which he wishes brok n into small Irsnd specimens, a irieud kifidiy offered him the use of a large half ton trip-hammer to ItMR it witfi.

Newsy Items AIoest the Coast Wires from the East All Cut 0ff-0ue of the . W rat 'Storms on Record, The Hkralu'o Special Dispaicii- s. Sax I'r-xncisco, Jan. 4. This cilvwas almost entirely cut off from the East yesterday, as far as nut-grapiiic communication is con cerned. A fierce storm raged in the Sierra Nevada mountains Mon day iiiht, completely leveling, nearly thiee miles of telegraph poles and wires between Truckee and Boca. A construction train left Sacramento early in the day to repair the damages. The south ern wires were also down until toward evening when one wire began to work. The storm also caused a breaki.'.s in telegraph communication between ban Fran cisco and Portland. A fierce storm is raging in the Klamath and Sis kiyou ranges, and the north-bound passenger train has been delayed at Ashland, having been unable to proceed north from that point by reason of a storm. At 0 o'cIock vesterday evening the Western Union lost all wires to the East. 810KHS AT SEA Several Vessels Di-iven 4liore Willi I'atal IC'-Miils. Sax Feaxcisco, Jan. 4. The steamer Arago, which arrived to day from Coos bay, brought the Ibst news of the wreck of thxs steamer John Hancock, off Mendo cino coast. The wreck was occa- 1 sioned bv the kf;e storm.whicti was ivpurtevl to be the most, severe that has visited the coast for vears. The Hancock left Humbolt" bay with a cargo of lumber n Dec. 3i, bound for Livene ,1 The b;:r was breaking badly and a heavy wind was rapidly increasing, but no ap prehension existed in the minds of the captain or crew at that timo. The gale increased and t he vessel was much strained. She tossed from one side to another until shortly after midnight, when it was discovered that she had sprung a leak forward her bows. She grad ually settled and the captain and his wife an. 1 crew were compelled t j leave the vessel hastily in small boats. The weather was so thick that it was impossible to find land, and the boats drifted around for twelve hours, when the occupants were picked up by the steamer Ar ago and brought to this citv-. Ke norts at the Slercfiants Exchange to-day tell of the fatal wreck at Bowen's landing last night of the schooner California, of this port. The crew were all saved. Anxiety is also expressed for the schooner Julia G. Slarks, which sailed from San Pedro on December 7th for Humboldt, and has not arrived yet. The Los Angeles Fire. Los Angeles, Jan. 4. The prin cipal losers by the fire yesterday was the Los Angeles Furniture Co., of which H. H. Slarkham is resident. The concern had a large stock on hand, and the total loss is estimated at from $125,000' to $150,000, w hile the insurance is estimated at-$70,000. The Larzc or the Small Cow. Farm and Garden. Whether the large or small cow is the most profitable on small farms is a disputed queston. For our part we like a good cow, whether she is large or small, and are better suited by quality than size. The large animal consumes more and should yield an increase of milk and butter to compensate for the extra feed We saw, not long since, a statement in which the extra cost and possible profit and loss were very nicely calcula ted, and the balance seemed to be in favor" of the smalier cow. We do not believe there is much dif ference in profit yielded, by an in dividual cow of either class, if they are good specimens of their kint . We believe good keep makes the profit in all cases, be the breed what it may. It requires a certain amount of feed to sustain life and keep up animal waste; whatever additional proper nutritious food is supplied well,in a good cow,goea into profit in milk and butter. The advocates of the large cow urge that there is an increased value in such stok when it comes to the butcher; but this is not of much consequence, for such beef does not have a high market value. Select whatever Kind we may for the dairy, if we consult our profit we must look for the one that makes the best returns for her keep all others consideration of size ami weight are only of minor impor tance. The best caw at the milk pail will be the best breed for the owner. The most a rascal will do for a living is to do" other people. r"' ' V X 1 V I i.
