Some.of the absurdities which still-find a. place in the maritime laws of -the United States, have been illustrated in a small but an noying way in San Francisco. Some time ago a wealthy resident, interested in aquatics, purchased a small steam launch for his own entertainment on the bay. The launcli was, however, a foreign bottom. Whenever he wanted to sail in her he had to get a special permit from the Port Collector, as the maritime laws forbid foreign bottoms sailing from one domestic nort to another. But the stonni yacht-owner's troubles had onlv j begun. On 'top rf the restriction mentioned came a multitude of regulations concerning boiler in spections, engineer licenses, etc., which had to be complied with, j These became so oppressive that the owner, as a matter .of self protection, was forced to resort to -strategy. The subterfuge of plac ing the steam launch at the service of a United States revenue cutter, and "borrowing" the launch and two of the cutter's engineers when ever tl)e owner wanted to take a pleasure cruise, answered vcrv al,l3' were mauo out in me on well for a while. But like many sul's office, which was construct- other human plans it haditsdav.ivel.v American soil, and papersi and had to be abandoned. The upshot of it was the shipment of the launch to British Columbia, the United States regulations be ing drawn so tightly as to make it impossible to use her here without constant violation of law and lia- bMity to heavy fine. Another illustration'of some 0 the absurdities of the United States maritime laws in relation to steam vessels is now lying in Mission f bayJuEbisis also.. a steam .launch built for pleasure purposes only, and owned by the Spreckels Bros. She differs from the launch just mentioned in the fact that she is home-made and not of foreign build. She was fitted with a beau tiful1 engine nd .boiler, .and the United States Inspector was iu vited to inspect her for the issu ance of a license. The boiler was condemned because made of Eng lish iron, the law requiring that it should be made of Pennsylvania iron. A Pennsylvania boiler was substituted, but the Inspector then directed attention to the omission of a certain pump required by the . law. The pump was provided, when the owners were informed that she needed a licensed engi- -.neer and a licensed master before she could go into service. It end- t-u in MiuiJiiiiir iiii- iit;i mill hiu o be stated, parenthetically, that all Jstenm vessels, irrespective of size, are required t8 be provided with licensed engines Jind 'boilers, licensed engineer, a licensed as sistant engineer, a licensed master and a licensed mate. Another of the absurdities of .the maritime laws is likely to be , brought out. conspicuously before Ipngin this harbor. .A member of one of the yacht clubs who has been .recently sojourning in Eng- , (land haspurchased and shipped on board a vessel bound to this port, a 10-ton English cutter. The ves-, sel is ?o be used only for the pur pose of pleasure. The owner and his sons anticipate lots f pleas--ur in cruising in and out of the ""Bay But the -question winch puzzles the knowing ones is, how shall tins English cutter be landed and used here? TheEnglish cutter Madge, which has -for the past eight or nine daysjbeen racing in New York waters had to get a . special permit from the New York Collector of Customs, which per- r mlfe.provides that the -Madge shall birrreturned" to England. Many 'years ago the ' "Western Union Telegraph company was confronted ) How Uncle Silas Run a Caucus, with a similar problem and solved When poor old Uncle Silas Pat it in a very ingenious manner. The-terson went to his grave not a company " was at the time con- mourner followed, and nuver will a structing the Collins Overland tear moisten the earth above him. Russian American telegraph line. In b'-gone days he aspired to be To connect the two continents at ' a political leader, and there are Behring straits, an English-made cable was purchased. After the purchase of the cable the construe- tion of the line was abandoned. The company then purchased the British ship Egmont, which car ried the cable, and left it in her hold to save storage on shore, un til such time as the cable might be sold or used elsewhere. It subse- qently appeared necessary that the ship should ply between two or more American poits in the dis charge of her cargo. But the im pediment of "foreign bottom" was m the wa3'- To overcome this obsta cle, the Egmont was placed on the ways at Victoria, V. I., and in the presence of the United States Consul a plank was taken out of the bottom of the ship below the water line and a piece of timber grown on American soil substi tuted. Necessary afiidavits of the change of the Egmont's nation- were issued to her as an American ship. The simplicity of the change only draws out more strongly the absurdity of the law which made such a change necessary to enable the vessel to trade in American waters- Phaps tho owner of the j 10-ton English cutter will find it an equallv convenient method of naturalizing the craft. Tf not, she will no doubt, have to go the way of the foreign-built steam launch, and his day dreams of pletibtiro cruising will' vanish in thin air. 5. F. Bulletin. Technical Esthetes. A couple of cattle thieves at San Jose were convicted in 1870 and sentenced to live years' imprison ment in San Quentin. In writing j out the verdict a juryman improp erly spelled the word defendants. The document read: ""We find the defendances guilty." On this quibble the case of one of the thieves was appealed to the Su preme court. After long ponder- ing on the weighty subject that ! august tribunal has just decided in the thief's favor. The case is not one of striking importance, save that it illustrates what is constantly occuring in our courts. The law j no longer inquires: "Is this man a tlfief? Is he a swindler? Is'he m nrf nrorr I nri no nniii'UM'nnin.L ...... .-.... ku...., uum On the contrary, it turns its large magnifying glass on the case and practically .says: -'Is there any pos- a.sible 'tochnicalitv bv means of! which this worthies scoundrel can be shielded from punishment? Ii there is, we want to find if." The law seeks to exclude from the jury box men who read the daily pa pers and wlio are wide awake and intelligent, and in the case, under consideration, nullifies a verdict because, naturally enough, a jury man is too ignorant to spell cor rectly. A thief is turned loose jiot.because he is innocent, but be cause a juryman proves to be ig norant. The juryman was really on trial, at great expense to the pub-J lie, instead of the thief. The in vestigation was one concerning orthography and not cattle-stealing, as was erroneously supposed. And this is what they call law in California an article that costs taxpayers and litigants vast sums 'of money ..annually. ,Our courts have become arenas in which tech nical esthetes assemble -to split hairs, strain atlegal gnats and save tne,vguilty frompunishment. JS. F. Chronicle. plenty of men who remember how he once ran a ward caucus. Know- Hng his ambition to become a power in the third ward, three or fourold jokers put up a plan to make him chairman of the caucus whortly to be held, and they visited) him in a body and explained: "Everything will depend on how you run this caucus. Be calm. Be dignified. Don't let any one ride over you. One will move this and the other that, but you must refuse to entertain any motions until 3011 have ascertained the pleasure of the meeting." Uncle Sile was delighted and puffed up, and he could hardly wait for the hwur which was to witness his triumph. lie was called to the chair, as planned, and after a few remarks to prove his gratitude, he called for order and said: "Now, then, what is the pleasure of the meeting?" A citizen rose in reply and be gan: " - - "J. move you, Mr. Uh&irnian. that we now pro "Order! Order!" called Uncle Sile. "I am in order." "You are not! Take your seat or I'll have you put out."

I now ask you for the third time, what is the pleasure of the meeting?" The-electors were dumbfounded or a time, but one of them re covered a little sooner than the rest and asked: "Is this a caucus?'' "You bet!" aswered Uncie Sile. "Are we here to 'nominate, ward officers?" "We are." "Then, sir, I move that we pro " "Order! order!" yelled the chair man. "That's the third or fourth I time that trick has been tried here, rn. r.ip novt man who mnkp :i ... , , motion before I have found out the pleasure of the meeting will be put out.

" About twenty men rushed for him at once, and he wont out of the window like a bap; of sand, and before he had'eome to, the caucus had trans acted its business and adjourned. The incident not only cured Uncle Sile's ambition to be. a politician but it is doubtful if he ever cast another vote. Detroit Free Pieas. Something New. A Coeur d'Alene correspondent of the Spokane Chronicle thus de scribes.a newly discovered 4feature of that ceuntry: "I am able to give you the description of a new feature of interest which ufsituated on Cceur d'Alene river and about sixteen miles from its 'mouth in what has been called by Capt. Sorensen, Green Island, from the fact that from a distance it looks as though 'it was entirely sur rounded by water and graen meadows.
