He succeeded iu cashing several chocks iu San Jose bearing the signature of his gunrdiau, Dr. E. M. Patterson of 10'MJ California street, Ban Francisoo, drawn on a Sun Francisoo bank.

Tho wolves tore their packs to pieces, and iu a fow min utes not eveu a vestlgu of tho leather striis remained. A snowstorm raged for severul hours and a heavy wind fol lowed, bat the wolves still kept up their vigil through tho night and tho next duy. The employer of tlio moil had, iu the meantime, started out to look for them, and finally rescued them ufter shooting a number of the wolves. Charles Briggs, while drilling for oil for the Riverside company, a mile and a half south of Volcano sprlugs, a sta tion ou the Southern I'acillo lif Halton basin, 265 feet below the sea level. knocked the bottom jut of the well at a depth ot 350 foot, and the men ut work barely escaped being blown to plows by the sudden emission of gas, hot wafer, steam, boiling mud and stones. There are more than A1 mad volcanoes iu the vicinity. Tha one just tapped bouts all the rest in size and violence. A column ot steaming mud is spouting 1M feet into the air, and tho fountain of boiling mud can be eoeu for miles. Brlgga has lost his eutlre rig. as no one can venture near the point of eruption to rescue the tools. Colonel W. R.

Brace, a negro divinity stu dent ut Harvard nuivarsity. Judge Almy said the case was clearly one of diseritulnatiou. The barber had the right to reject objectionable onatomors, but uot for reasons of race or color, Yldll Yliltlsou, a Jewish rabbi, says a Denver disatcli, was attacked by six men aud 12 women lu his synagogue at Colfax and had his robes torn from his body and his faoe badly bruised. The Jewish colony, previously to the coming of the rabbi from the east, had beou dis regarding tho Mosuio law which says that one mun shall kill beef and another Inspect it. The Hebrews took sides on the question, and the rabbi declared a boycott upou the butcher shop. It was the mothers, wives aud daughters of the men employed In the butcher shop who wreaked their vouguauoe upon the rabbi.

At tho national convention of the Knights ot Labor at Indianapolis, Gen eral Master Workman Simon Burns at tacked the Amorican Federation of Labor, and said that the steel ootnpanloa iu the reoeut strike were victorious be cause of treachery aud the failure ot organised labor to do Its duty.
