This season Miss Miskel, who is in pri- vate life Mrs. Charles Hoyt, is playing the leading role in “‘A Contented Woman,"” the very latest of Hoyt's comedies. The critics have praised her creation of the character from which the play is named. “A Contented Woman will seen 1in San Francisco for the first time Monday next at the Boldwin Theater, THE TROOPS IN ALASKA. Captain Hooper Ordered to Washing- ton to Give Information. From dispatches received in this City last night it was learned that the report of a company of troops raised in Juneau by revenue officers, published in yesterday's CaArrL, was receiving the attention of Secre- tary Olney. Captain Harper has been directed to pro- | ceed to Washington, not only to give in- formation as to the Bering Sea Canadian ailors’ claims, but on the situation in- voiving the Alaskan Canadian boundary as well.

The value of plenty of water, good streams and a water-tower to prevent the spread of a fire was made manifest at the | conflagration at the northwest corner of Beale and Mission streets last night.

Mrs. Sbarboro is the actiye proprietor of the old grocery busi- ness on Washington street, which her husband bhegan years ago as a pioneer. The business was successful and Sbarboro became prosperous, and in the mudst of which he married in 1882 But the “liquor habit” fastened itself upon him and year by year the business slipped aw from him. Then the wife borrowed some money and took charge of the store under the firm name of Sbarboro & Co. She has managed it ever siuce successfully. The tesumony goes to show that Sbar- | he wheelcd and darted back to the sidewalk, saying as he left: ““Oh, vou are fixed, are you? Well, I'll see | you again.” “Well, 1 guess he will, for I have to-day sworn out a warrant for his arrest, which will be served to-morrow.

It wasn’t very long, however, before the New York pub- lic was well acquainted with her, for her name was in every mouth, and the news | columns of the dailies contained interest- | ing bits connected with her which appeared | with a frequency that would have satiated the appetite of a co! opera queen for free advertizing. | |, Miss Miskel was first heard of in connec- tion with Augustin Daly’s company, in | which she played small parts, but her real | triumph on the stage was when she joined | the company of &mrles H. Hoyt and I'made her debut in one of Lis comedies. But little was known of her except that | cutters now in this port failed to elicit any | definite information reiative to the re- | ported encampment of troops 110 miles from Juneau. But that was explained hy the fact that the letter of Dr. Dowdall, a practicing den- tist in Juneau, was written after the steamer sailed and sent south on a small vessel bound to Puget Sound. It received its first postmark at Seattle October 22 and arrived here two days later. No mail has since come out of Juneau. The Corwin and the Walcott have been in that port lately, but possibly Captain Hooper is not ‘the officer who organized the company of soldiers. ‘‘There is not the least doubt that the information given by my brother in his | Juneau letter of October 15 is true in every particular,” said Druggist Dowdall yester- day. “The officers and_others here, who rm(ess to known nothing of the affair, | have not received any later advices. Of | course, I do not know the reason of the | movement, but the Government officers | are not drilling and feeding militia for no object, and those young men are not marching through the wintry woods of Alaska for fun. The statement in yester- | day’s CALL coming from my brother is | true in every particular, and will be cor- roborated by his next letter from Alaska, which will be received next week.” Captain Smith of the cutter Perry could |give no information relative to the matter, but stated that it was not Hooper. Noth- ing so serious as that would be done by | any of the revenue officials, except by special orders from Washington, and those £ | orders would only come to the senior offi- | cer of the cutter fleet. | Prolessor Davidson stated in an inter- | view last night that the Canadian mounted | police were an efficient body, and if thrown | on the Alaskan frontier would be an ag- | gressive body of troops. | . *“They would not be at all backward in | interfering with American miners,” said | the professor, *and the miners would resent with the ritle and the revolver any meddling on the part of the Canadians. The Dominion surveyors are there and bave been there constantly working on that frontier summer and winter, while we have been doing a little summer work along the line. They have been imposing on us constantly.”” e e A South American Fireman. Signor Salmonica, who is an oflicer of the Volunteer Fire Department of Chile, South America, is at present in this City. He isona tour of the world. Yesterday the visitor was mtroduced to the officers of the San Francisco Fire Department. He was placed in charge of District Engineer Fernandez, who escorted the South American around the City and explained to him the working of the San Francisco de- vartment. The visitor was highly pleased with what he saw St B BT, Piano Contest at St. Paul’s Bazaar. Among the many prizes offered to the patrons of St. Peul’s Bazaar, now in progress at St. Paul’s Hall, Twenty-ninth and Church streets, is & magnificent upright piano. The piano is to be presented to the school or college receiv- ing the largest number of votes. At the clos- ing last evening the vote stood as follows: Notre Dame College 107, St. Vincent’s School 138, Immaculate Conceg!lon Academy 104, Sacred Heart College 100, The bazaar will close on Thursday evening. room of the San Francisco Planing Mills in the northernend of the structure, a two- story one of comparatively small value, and an alarm was turned in from station 265, corner Main and Mission streets. Five minutes later a second alarm was sent in from the same box, and by that time the entire structure, having a front- age of 100 feet on Beale street and a like frontage on Mission street, was a mass of flames. ‘Water tower 1 was run up in front of the burning building on the Mission-street side and one in the rear, and in a few min- utes it wassending forth a powerfnl stream fed by six engine companies. Thisat first was directed against the three-story frame building on the west, which is now vacant, but for many years was Joshua Hendy’s foundry. This three-and-a-half-inch stream saved that building and prevented the flames from spreading in that direction. While this figgt Was %einrz made streams from engines 9, 10 and 12 were turned on, and they struck the fire with so much force that within fifteen minutes after the first alarm was given, while the fire was still burning fiercely, it was under control. The management of the fire is_one that redounds to the credit of the officers who directed the movements of the men. No. 12 in use is the steamer that was used by Peunsylvania Engine Company of the volunteer, and is the first first-class engine ever received in this City. After the fire was under control the six streams were disconnected from the water tower and two of the streams were turned into a Siamese nozzle, furnishingan excellent stream. The buildings were old, of no great value and the insurance comvaratively light. During the evening the water tower was moved and in doing so came in contact with a Jive wire of the Mission-street electric car line, and in a moment the tower was chargzed with electricity to such an extent that the men were forced to wear gloves while working around the epparatus. This was kept up until an erctrician disconnected the current and gave an opportunity to remove the tower. Some of tge men had their hands scorched by the electric fluide i The flames were not long in sweeping through Young’s planing-mill and up into a small planing-mill conducted by a man named Chase. The rear of W. H. Thomp- son’s planing-mill on Mission street caught next and a minute later Powers’ woodcarving establishment, also on Mis- sion street, followed. By this time George Brucker’s saloon on the corner of Beale and Mission streets was being rapidly destroyed, and within ten minutes it was almost totally con- sumed. % Thomas, a_building contractor, also had a small planing mill in the midcdle of the building on Beale street, which was com- pletely wiped out. The estimated loss was set at about $30,- 000, and so far as could be learned ihere was not over $6000 or $7000 insurance carried, as the insurance companies de- clined to take such risks. The loss on the Young building was set at about $3000, as it was an antiquated frame structure. The heaviest loss was on the machnery in Young’s establithment, which supplied the power to the other 11 Flaning-mius and shops. The loss on the umber and similar materials was not very great, as only such amounts were carried on hand as were necessary for immediate use, Those who will feel the blow the more severel will be the workingmen. In| mill thirty-five men were em- - Five found work in Thomas’ mill. In all between sixty-five and seventy men will be thrown out of employment by the fire, William Hughes, the night watchman employed at the Lonmeister flouring wills, at the corner of Main and Mission streets, a block away from the scene of the fire, turned in the alarm. The total loss is estimated at $20,000. CHARGES BRCUGHT. Walter S. Brown Hunting for Secret Service Agent Harris’ Sealp. The Federal officers in this City, includ- ing Secret Service Agent Harris, are much amused over the efforts of Walter S. Brown to get Mr. Harris into trouble with | the authorities at Washington. Mr. Brown was on the jury drawn to try | Howell, who is accused of counterfeiting, and was summoned before the United | States Grand Jury to tell what he knew about a charge made by Mr. Harris that he had been offered a bribe to influence the Howell jury in favor of the defendant. Nothing came of that investigation, but, as a result, he was excused by District At- torney Barnes from serving on the Dur- rant jury when the latter learned of the trouble in the United States District Court. Since this latter episode Mr. Brown, as- | sisted by Mrs. Finnengass, wife of the | Secret Service agent whom Mr. Harris | superseded, has been gathering evidence | to be used in charges against the Secret | Service agent. It is said that these charges will include exceeding his duties, Whether or not these charges have been | forwarded to Washington is not known, but Mrs. Finnengass has admitted that | the material was being looked for for such a purpose, and, that in case sufficient was | found, they would be sent to headquarters. Though denying that he has taken any steps in the matter Mr. Brown admits | that he may do so at any time, and would be glad to see Mr. Harris removed from office. Mr. Harris exhibited a mixture of amuse- ment and surprise when told of the pro- | jected charges. “I have but done my duty,” he sad, | ‘“and if Mr. Brown desires to have my official acts investigated he is at perfect | liberty to do so. “I have not the slightest fear of the con- sequences. In fact had I neglected to pur- sue thenvestigations I did I should have | been remiss in my duty and then certainly liable to censure. “I have no ill will against the gentle- man, but feel that he is taking a wrong course.”’ | The opinion is expressed among Federal officers that Mr. Harris is a careful, con- scientious official, and that any charges based on the allegations made will fall to | the ground. — . i A New Wine Company.

NO ACTS TO MAKE UP A CASE, Unless the Governor Dies He Does Not Know How the Question Can Come Up. Senator Thomas Flint Jr. of San Juan came into town yesterday, but does not | seem to be bothering himseif at all about the lieutenant-governorship. He says that he hasno intention of takingany steps toward determining whether he or Mr. Jeter is entitled to the chief sinecure in the gift of the people of California. Ha claims that as president pro tem. of the Senate he is entitled to succession to Gove ernor Budd in case of the latter's death, but as there is absolutely nothing for the Lieutenant-Governor to do until the Legise lature meets he does not see that anything | can be done upon which the question could be brought before the Supreme Court for determination. Asked about the mattes yesterday he said: “Ihave no intention of doing anything in the matteratall. In fact, [ don’t seas that there is any use in raising the ques~ | tion now. There is absolutely nothing for the Lieutenant-Governor to do except pre« side over the Senate, and that will not meet for over a vear. Then I do not see how the question could very well be raisea. “Ido not see that the question be brought before the Supreme Court in any way, unless there should be some official act required to be done by the incumbent of the office. If the Governor should die of course the question of his legal suc- cessor would have to be settled. Idon't understand that the question can be brought before the Supreme Court in an agreed case.” , ‘“‘How about a special election being called next year?'’ wasasked. ‘“‘From all I can learn it is very doutfnl if a special election can be called. I am Fresulem pro tem. of the Senate, and be- ieve that as such I am entitled to succes- sion to the Governor in case he should die. My term expires when the next Legislature meets, when my successor will be elected, and 1t is probable that upon the question of recognizing Mr. Jeter as Lieutenant- Gove -Juor his right to the office will be Thave nodoubt that the Legislature will pass a law on the subject. It is not likely that this action of the Governor will be sustained. To show its absurdit uppose the Governordied and Mr. Jeter succeeded. He would then appoint a Lieutenant-Gov- ernor, and could resign, and so on ad in- finitum.” It was stated at the British Association meeting on the 19th uit. that in Scotiand alone the long-line fishermen use nearly 100,000,000 of mussels to bait their hooks every time all lines are set, and they have to import annually many tons of these mussels at a cost of from £3 to £3 10s a ton. e One man in Chester, England, has been i justices 130 times for ve times, , and another twenty-nir . e COst, of prosecuting the family and keeping it been over $10,000.
