ALASKA BOUNDARY LINES, The Rich Yukon Mining District Is In the American Ter- ritory. The coast survey steamer Patterson sailed yesterday for Portland Inlet to be- | gin the work of running the boundary | minions. It issaid that no attempt will be made this session to settle the dispute over the location of Forty-mile Creek as it is considered by the United States Govern- ment that the forty-first meridian of longi- tude, which is the agreed boundary line | between the two countries, places all the rich mines of the Yukon in American | territory. Two astronomical parties accompany the Patterson, one of which, under Pro- fessor E. F. Dickens, will be stationed on | Marys Island, and the other, under Pro- fessor Fremont Morse, will be at Seattle. The four triangulation parties which are a part of the expedition will be stationed at Portland Inlet. Captain Morse of the | glow of the rising sun burnished the broad reaches of the winding river. When the Capital was in_her prime Uncle George Bromley was_skipper of the commodious and fast-sailing sloop Red Rock, and had a crew of one, who was also his partner in trading groceries for hides and horns. Red Rock, after which the sloop was named, was then claimed by Commodore Selim Woodworth, who kept two men on that diminutive and precipit- ous island to hold his property against all sorts of land pirates. li;m the time came when Uncle Sam decided that he wanted that rock, and Woodworth’s henchmen unceremoniously departed. Mark Twain was the correspondent of Virginia City Territorial Enterprise and was instructed to send to Virginia City a full report of the launching of the Capital. Now, Sam knew something less about a ship than constructing a watch, and he 3| plied to some of his confreres for a reli- able person who could post him on the nautical terms necessary in the description of such an event. He was advised to see Mumph Nicker- son, a saloon-keeper on Commercial street. Mumph was a character in his way, and once when he had strained his hip, and got weary of the many good-natured in- quiries about his_convalescence, pinned a placard on the injured limb bearing the information, ‘“hip better,” and this he would expose to the anxious visitor, and then continue mixing drinks. So Mark called on Nickerson, and Mumph began the story of the panorama man, and the musician who played popular and pro- fane airs when those pictures illustrative of Biblical history were exhibited, an anecdote which the humorist afterward used in one of his books. The story was a long one, Mark enjoyed it, and before it | was published the Capital was launched, that ceremony, for some reason or other, taking place at midnight. So the Enter- r se was defrauded of its technical report, yut Mark secured some good material, and never regretted his interview. After her service on the Sacramento ‘THE STREET COMMITTEE, It Grants a Three Months’ Ex- tension to Mayor Sutro’s Road AND REAPPOINTS JOHN REID. Petty Vengeance Wrought During Chalrman Spreckels’ Absence. The Street Committee yesterday morn- ing decided to grant Mayor Sutro three months’ extension of time for completing his street railroad. This by no means answered the desiresof the petitioners, but it was the best that he or they could | get, for a petition was presented by Colonel | Barry, who represented the company, | signed by 0. D. Baldwin, 0. F. ven Rhein |and the other directors. Colonel Barry | went all over the ground that has been | trodden before, declaring that as hard | cash had been paid for the franchise the | company had some rights that should be | recognized; that the company had been | more than usually diligent; that delays | had been occasioned by rains and big | questions affecting changes of street grades, etc. With regard to the contention | over the material and its not having been I manufactured in California, he said that THE SURVEY STEAMER PATTERSON STARTING NORTH. [Sketched. for the *Call” by Coulter.] Patterson will have charge of the hydro- graphic work of the survey and will carry the outfit of the surveyors to their re- spective stations. The steamer will tow the schooner Earnest loaded with coal, and the steam launch Fuca which will be used in Portland Inlet. The steamship Alameda brings the news that the German bark Triton reported at Honotulu that she had sighted a hulk in 10 south and 113 west. The wreck was dis- mantled and had been a four-masted ship. Nothing could be learned of her name or identity. By the Alameda it is learned that Prince vh of Battenberg is at Hono- lulu, and “-ih arrive in this city from the Hawaiian Islands the 20th inst. He is the brother of Henry of Battenberg who mar- ried the Princess Beatrice, youngest daugh- ter of Queen oria. The Prince is accompanied on his tour of the world by Colonel Townsend of the English Royal Life Guards. They will re- main in this city only a few days, and ex- pect to leave New York for Europe May 1. HER BEST DAYS AR PAST The OIld and Well-Known Steamer Capital Is Bathing in the Mud. A Steamer Which Once Carried Many Partles Up the River. Half a mile or so north of the E1 Campo picnic ground, and lying in a fathom of water, is all that remains of the old steamer Capital, the pride in the “fifties” of the Sacramento River. In the days of her youth she had no rival. In speed, in luxurious fittings, in all that was con- sidered first class in those times, the Cap- The Old Derelict Oapital. ital was the queen of the river. But her sailing days are over, and her timbers blaze on the hearths of the Portuguese dairymen. The rails over which the legis- lator leaned on his way to Sacramento and discussed grave and important measures with his colleagues are pierced by the teredo worm, and nothing remains of the snug statercoms, where many a fair lobby- ist was luiled to repose by the plash of the yellow river. In that golden period when “‘ounces’ were as plentiful as dollars now are the Capital was commanded by Captain Poole, and his beautiful wife' often accompanied bim on these pleasant voyages. The legis- lators were domestic men at that epoch, ana would as soon think of going to Sacra- mento without their wives as without their toothbrush. There was a grand piano on board, and the quaint old three-step waltz was in vogue, and_there were merry souls tor Thomas Flint Jr.; sec- e-president, Dr. Ira G. Hoitt, '60; secre- A. Perkins, '90; treasurer, C. B. Wright, River the Capital was put on the ferry be- tween Oakland and this city, and_earned many a dollar for the company. The time | came at last when machinist and ship- wright could do no more for the old boat, and she was sentenced to neglect and de- cay, a thing of the past, a derelict whose timbers are pregnant with ancient history. STRAUSS IS ANGRY. He Denounces the Pacific Coast Pigeon Soclety as Very Arbi- trary. B. Strauss, the Kearny-street bird-dealer, who has in charge the arrangements for a carrier-pigeon race, to take place between this city and Portland on June 10, is very much disturbed over the question raised &s to his veracity by members of the Pa- cific Coast Pigeon Society, as set forth in yesterday’s issue of the Carn. In a pub- lished interview A. N. Bayley, secretary of the society, intimates that no flight has taken place recently between this city and Portland. “Itisa most absurd intimation,” said Mr. Strauss yesterday. ‘“The fact is well known to hundreds of people in both cities. A large crowd was on hand when the birds were liberated from my place of business,’ and telegrams and letters from the ownersin Portland now in my possession ought to be sufficient evidence that the thing is not as Bayley says, a newspaper story, buta enuine race by men who are well known in the city of Portland. What could be my object in getting up a ‘fake’ race. As a matter of fact, many of the members of this so-called Pacific Coast Pigeon Society are wholly ignorant not only of breeding, but of racing pigeons. There are men in that organization who do not know the difference between a homing pigeon and a night hawk. These people are_doing all the blowing. If they will call I can con- vince them of the truth of my statements in short order.” BLACKMAIL CHARGED. Serious Allegations in a Case in Which Bome FProminent People Are Interested. The case of M. E. Allen sgainst Joseph J. Gateley, a prominent citizen of San Jose, tried before Justice Groezinger yes- terday, involves a charge of blackmail. The son of the defendant, according to the evidence, had embezzled, or was alleged to have embezzled, some $250 from the Kirkpatrick Company of San Jose, while in its employ. Subsequently one F. H. Burge went to the defendant and induced him to sign a note under the thureat that if he did not do 0 bis son would be arrested on the charge of embezzlement. ‘When the note came due the defendant declined to pay it, declaring he had signed it only under the intluence of the threat and that the claim was unlawful. The claim was assigned to Allen for collection. The matter was taken under advisement, —————— The Course of True Love. James Godfrey, 524 Minna street, swore out a warrant in Judge Joachimsen’s court yesterday for the arrest of Catherine Nugent, 28 Minna street, on the charge of embezzlement as a bailee. Godfrey is a fireman on one of the steamers. He and Miss Nugent became engaged to be married, and before leaving on his last trip he gave her his gold watch to keep for him. Wghen he returned %o the city he found that she bad bestowed her affections upon another man and refused to part wi{h his gold watch. ———— on board who didn’t mind dancing all through a moonlight night, until the fire SPURIOUS coin hasino ring. Observe the ring of the Almighty Dollar (Cigar). * | much of it could not be manufactured | here except at great cost. The question of the T rail was not gone | closely into. Dunker moved the three months’ extension, which Colonel Barry and Colonel Little declared was not enough. It carried, however, with the understand- ing that at the end of that time a further extension, if required, would be considered. Benjamin objected to a long extension, with the declaration that the committee was still investigating the charge that the | company was trespassing upon a cemetery. Little answered this, saying that the last board had ordered a street cut through the cemetery at the point of the alleged trespass, and the reason there was any trespass, if there was any, was that thé board had failed to carry out the order. During the afternoon ion the com- mittee showed its disposition to be spite- | ful and work emall vengeances upon the | members of the big four of the minority who have disconcerted their plans se much of late. A faw weeks ago, upon the motion of Chairman Spreckels of the committee, the office of Inspector of Streets and Side- walks, held by John Reid, was declared vacant., When Chairman Spreckels pre- sented the name of George W. Elder for the office, however, he was not sustained. There the matter rested, and but for Mr. | Spreckels’ care the office would still be | vacant and the duties not performed. Mr. | Spreckels employed Elder himself and himself paid the salary, and the work of the Inspector has been done promptly and | thoroughly. | Yesterday afternoon, however, during the absence of Chairman Spreckels and while Supervisor Hughes occupied the chair, & motion was made reinstating Reid to the office, and it carried without opposition. The Street Committee is com- | posed, besides Chairman Spreckels, of Su- pervisors Hughes, Morgenstern, Benjamin and Dunker, all members of the solid | eight who were authors of the late bi- tuminous rock Southern Pacific monopoly | ordinance recently vetoed by Mayor Sutro, and which the big four, at'the next meet- ing of the board, will prevent being passed over that veto. The committee awarded contracts as foflows:: Polk street, between Greenwich and Lom- bard, grading, Thomas Madigan, 373 cents. Broderick street, from Post to Geary, paving with bitumen, J. M. Phillips, 65 cents. Crossing of Guerreroand Nineteenth streets, {v(nving with bitumen, Jordan Bituminous ock and Paving Company, 20 cents. Army street, corners of Guerrero, curbs, etc., Garrett Burke, $78. Twenty-first _street, corner Bartlett, side- walks, Garrett Burk, 20 cents. San Jose avenue, corner Army street, curbs, etc., J. L. Welch, $65. The old trouble over the grade of streets on Liberty Heights was laid over until the first meeting in July. A favorable report was decided upon in the matter of the petition of the Presidio and Ferries Railroad Company to amend its franchise to permit the use of electric motors. Mr. Newhall was present for the company. He said that the change in equipment could be completed in about three months; that they intended to pave their streets with basalt blocks and to ex- tend to the ferry at once. After that,in response to a question by Mr, Dunker, they would endeavor to have Baker street filled in to grade and the road pushed out to the iron works. % The protests against the Clement-street sewer were sustained. ¥ire on Davis Street. A fire started on the roof of G. Baglietto & Co.’s produce commission store, at 421 Davis street, last night and developed into s ‘threat- ening blaze before it was got under control b; the firemen. An alarm was given from box 19 for the fire at 9:30 P. M., and by that time the flames had extended to 423, a produce store occupied by W. J. Murray & Co., and to Giovanni’s restaurant at 419, Baglietto's place was damaged the most, as the others were only scorched and injured by water. The total damage will not exceed $1500 and is mostly on the old frame buildings. The cause of the fire is unknown.

MISS LENA LUX'S CHOICE. Youngest Daughter of Henry | Lux Is to Wed C. G. H. McBride. Both Parties Are Very Prominent and Popular In Soclal Circles. An engagement that will arouse a great deal of interest in society is that of Miss Lena B. Lux, daughter of Henry Lux of | San Jose, and C. G. H. McBride, a promi- | nent young business man of this city, who resides in Oakland. Miss Lux is one of the heirs of the great estate of Charles Lux, deceased, who was of the firm of Miller & | Lux, the great cattle lords of California, whose lands are measured by the league ' money he had saved. Since jthen he had been trying to get employment, but was not successful till Wednesday, when he got a position as night waliter in a restau- rant on Montgomery street at $5 per week. Yesterday morning about 6 o’clock, when he reached home, he told his wife he was disgusted with the place, and burst into tears. About 8 o’clock he went to | bed, and his wife promised to waken him at 5 o’clock in the afternoon, as he had to be at the restaurant at 6. There was a bottle of tincture of opium in a closet in the bedroom, and Woods drank a wineglass of it. His wife did not | suspect anything wrong till four hours afterward. and by that time the poison got in its deadly work. Woods has a wife and three young children. A LAWYER SUED.

McBRIDE. and whose herds of cattle roam over a thousand hills. On tbe death of Charles Lux half of the immense estate went to his widow and the other half to his brother Henry and another brother and a sister who reside at the old Lux home in Ger- many. So the bride will have a very nice portion. She is a very pretty bruneite and is one of the most popular young ladies in San Jose, where she lives at the beauti- ful home of her parents. She is an ac- | complished musician and a bright and at- tractive conversationalist. She was edu- cated at Mills Seminary. The prospective groom lives in Oakland with Lis mother, Mrs. H. A. B, McBride, is a cousin of the Hushes of Fruitvale,and | is well and favorably known in society across the bay, as well as in this city. He is manager of the Union Pressed Brick and Terra-cotta Company of this city, and a successful business man. He came out here about three years ago from Ohio, where he had been connected with the Pennsylvania Railway. i The date of the wedding has not been fixed definitely as yet, but it will probably take place on the 30th of this month at the home of the bride in San Jose. The honey- xsnoon will be spent in a tour of the Eastern tates. e OAUSED BY DESPONDENOCY. A. G. Woods Swallows a Big Dose of Opium. A. G. Woods, 684 Ash avenue, was taken to the Receiving Hospital yesterday after- noon in an apparently dying condition. He haa swallowed a dose of opium with suicidal intent. Until recently Woods kept a restaurant the claim upon which suit was based was outlawed, was tried before Justice Groez- inger yesterday. The suit against the attorney involved the trying of the original suit against the home in a great measure. Foreman, who is 78 years old, testified that he had paid $300 entrance fee to the home, in consideration eof which he was to be cared for until the end of his days. He said that he had been ejected by Mrs. Nel- son, the president, that he had not been well cared for during his stay there and was_compelled to go about playing his violin in saloons in order to get enough to eat, and that this had been charged against him as an .infraction of the ruling under which he was refused the shelter of the home. He had gone to Mr. Beatty to have him bring suit for damages, but in the heat of a campaign in which Beatty was a candidate for District Attorney, he had neglected to bring the suit until the claim was outlawed. Briefs were filed to cover a technical question of law, and the case was taken under advisement. OARPENTERS TO MEET. An Effort to Induce Non-Union Men to Join Local Brotherhoods. District Organizer Lee V. Malsbury, of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join- ers, has called a mass-meeting of carpen- ters for Wednesday evening, April 17, at the Temple, 115 Turk street. Speaking of the object of the meeting Treasurer W. H. Hutchinson of the local Brotherhood, No. 483, said yesterday afternoon: *‘The object of it is to induce, if possible, the non-union carpenters to join either one of the three local unions. "A big mass-meeting was on Howard street, but he had to give it up, as it did not pay. He lost what l'mYe held on the 6th inst., and we hope in the coming gathering to do something mara than simply talk. T mean that we propose to increase the numerical strength of union carpenters so that we can have the same footing with the Builders’ Exchange as carpenters of Chicago enjoy with the con- tractors of that city. Some months agoa committee waited upon the Builders’ Ex- change with a proposition that contractors enter an agreement with us to establish a scale of wages similar to the agreement the Brotherhood has with the contractors of Chicago. We were told that before such an agreement could be entered into it would be m‘cessari' to have such numer- ical strength #s would warrant it.” FATHER AND WOOER. Martin Johnston Viciously Attacked by John Ward. John Ward of Twenty-eighth and Ala« bama streets fell in love with the daughter of Martin Johnston, a neightor. The young girl did not reciprocate his affection, but Ward was persistent, and made lave to her when he had the chance. Her father went to him on Tuesday and told him that unless he stopped annoying her it would be the worse for him. There was a dance in Graham’s Hall adjoining Ward’s residence at which Miss Joi\nswn was present. Her father was waiting to take her home and Ward was there with the same object in view. They had some words and Ward attacked Mr. Johnston. He knocked him down and blackened both his eyes. Yesterday Mr. Johnston swore out a warrant for Ward's arrest on the charge of batter; perkles il SO e His Extra Patronage Gone, Among the many changes in the revenue law affecting the Auditor of this city and county is one that does away with the nece i ing the real estate and erty rolls, which he has had to dc The work costs about $17,000 yearly about 100 persons for a considerable This change will deprive the Auditor of fhis patron- age and those who profit by it of their several jobs.
