There he joined ti:e crew of the Alameda on his | own account, and later on was put to work | in the kitchen.

Freight is now being carried as far as Cooperstown, nineteen and & halt miles from Oakdale, whence it is teamed to its destination. | Considerable changes have also been hin the past three weeks in the service to points along the mother | iote, in many cases materially decreasing the time. | Tt is expected that the road will be con- structed to the top of the range, thirty miles from Oakdale, by the Ist of August. At this peint it will cross what is known as the Don Pedro’s Bar road, whera a | 1ght and passenger sration will be es- a cailed Don Pedro. This 1 be about a mile south of the ol1 and well-known Crimea Eouse.

Jamestown lies within about a mile and a half of Stent, and a strong effort is ba- ing made by the people of the former town to have it made the terminus of the road in place oi Stent. The survey, how- ever, has already been made to Sient, and it will undoubtedly require considerable inducement to have the railroad change ! its present plans. | As fast as the road is extended the stag- ing will be shortened. The freight haul, nowever, will not be lessened until the road reaches Don Pedro. It1s the purpose of Captain Nevills to rate his siages to Bodie whenever the rra Railway reaches to or beyond So- nora. (CHARLEY ULRICH'S PLAY, | It Was an Artistic Suceess, but the | Author Obtained No Substantial Returns. Charles Ulrich, author of the play called ‘A Celestial Maiden,” has sued | Lou Hallert, theatrical manager, for breach of contract. ! Mr. Ulrich sets forth in his complaint | that he agreed in writing 1o give Mr. | Hallett the exclusive right and privilege | to produce the aforesaid play in the States | of California, Oreeon, = Washington, | Nevada, ldaho, Montana, Colorado and | Utab for one year, for 734 per cent of the gross receipts, Proceeding in his complaint Mr. Ulrich | alleges ‘“‘that defenaant induced and | procured plaintiff to enter into said con- | tract by falsely and frauduleutly repre- senting himself to be a man well and | favorably known among theatrical people | and in the theatrical profession, and well able and willing to"produce said play in a good and satisfactory manner; and said | defendant falsely and fraudulently repre- | sented himself to be a man of financial | standinz and ability in all respects equal | to the task of properly siaging and pre- senting said play.” All these repret::tations, Mr. Ulrich | avers, were false and iraudulent, and | move than that it is the opinion of the Ehimm that the press notices sent out y the defendant have been injurious to the future prosperity of the play. For these reasone, and because he has received nothing of vaiue from the defendant, Mr. Ulrich asks that the contract be annulled and that the writing be delivered up to be canceled by the court, ——— J.

Mss. Eliza Thorrold Has Applied for a License to Be a Master of Her Little Tugboat. 1f Mrs. Eliza Thorrold of 315 Jersey street passes a successful examination before the local inspectors of steam vessels next week, she will have the proud distinction of being the only lady master of a steam vessel ou the Pacific Coast, and probably in the | United State. Yesterday she made an application to the board for a licanse as mas- ter of her own boat, the little tug Etheland Marion. As it is now Mrs. Thorrold is master as well as owner oi the stanch craft—that is so far as being able to navigate 1t | is concerned. She can handle the whee! like an old salt and she is perfectly familiar with the manipulation of the ropes, the towing of vessels around the bay, and the man- agement of berlittle tugin all kinds of weather. Allshe wants is alegal right to do so. | There is a good and laudable reason for her wishes. The lady is the widow of the late owner of the boat, Captain Cnarles Thorrold, who died four years ago under the most painful circumstanczs. He was playing with his daughter, then 12 years old. The occasion was her birthday, and he playfully undertook to give her a spanking in | honor of the occasion. In the scuffle he ran a crochet-needle into his band. Blood- | poison set in; the amputation of the arm followed, but for all that death was the re- sult. Since then the widow has taken eharge of the business of the tug, and day and | frequently night has found her practically doing the “‘ekipper’s’’ work, but she was obliged to have a licensed master on board in order to transact business. This figure- head master has been a very expensive luxury for her to keep on the tug, and she decided to attend to her own business as soon as she could lezally do so. Last evening Mrs. Thorrold was at home surrounded by her little family. The lady is a modest, unassuming woman, of medium height snd pleasing appearance. In discusving her application she said: “] have long contemplatea this move. In fact, my circumstances compel me to become the master of my own boat. As you know, my husband died several y ago and left me with five little children te support, and only the tug Ethel and Marion to do so with. Times are not the very best, and it takes all I can make to pay the men, let alone providing for my children. What I am u_nnecnnnly obliged to pay for a master for the boat would support the entire family. our years on the bay has made me familiar with the practical handling of the boat, and ali { want isa license to do what I am competent to do. I'know that this kind of occupation is not regarded as that for which woman is most fitted, but I have no choice. I would much rather be at home with my children, who wou!d sadly require my care were it not for my eldest daughter, who fills the place of their mother while I am away on the bay looking after the shipping business. All I want is the legal authorization to do what I am competent to do.” The lady smiled when asked if she had mastered the vocabulary that tagboat masters are accustomed to use when addressing their men, and answered: “Well, I can make them know wbat I want, butI don’t think it will be necessary to make use of much violent language to get them to obey my orders.’’ The Percy Edwards was still for sale when Ileft Suva.” Belt fared better than Mittman. He did pull a few dollars out of the fire, and was able to pay half fare from Auckland to San Francisco. According to him, the trip to the Adamless Eden was one of the greatest swindles ever perpetrated. Belt says those who engineered tihe scheme never had any island in view, and ounly expected to receive so much cash and then leave the “‘gulls’’ in the furch. The promoters of the scheme, according to Mittman and Belt, have succeeded. The Alameda wss detained nearly twenty-seven hours at Honolulu, Steam plows from Germany caused the delay. These articles were msde in England, shipped to Antwerp, were carri that point to Sydney, N. 8. W bottoms and sent from there to Haw This roundabout passage is made prac- ticatls by the sub idy paid the German ships by the German Government.

There was a nasty little tempest in a teapot yesterday at the meeting of the Eureka Society for the Protection of Chil- dren, which resuited in the president, Mrs. John Pettee, being expelied from the organization and in the election of A. R. Fredericks tothe presidency. The society, it will be remembered, is a new organization, the objects of which are the protection ana care of poor, neg- lected and abused children. From its very beginning the spirit of discord has hovered over the body. In fact, its very inception was in a spirit of strife, the members being those who went out of the California Society on account of the pres- ence of Secretary Welch, since removed. ‘When the new society was formed Mrs. Pettee was elected as the president, but it was not long before the other members of the board of directors began to disap- prove of her ways of doing business, and much dissatisfaction was expressed that she did not fulfill the promises she had made to keep the society’s exchejuer filled. Another complaint was that she interfered too much with the duties of the other officers. Several days ago half a dozen directors met and decided that it would be best to call a special meeting of the society and boost Mrs. Pettee out of office. The meet- |ing was called for yesterday, and the president got wind of what was in the She determined not to be out- done, so she was prepared with a nloc the whole crowd, ana incorporated the same in her letter of resignation. When the letter was read at the meeting yesterday it produced a sensation, for in it she accused the officers of using the so- ciety for personal gain, and not for the For all this it was the intention of letting her down easy, and not making the disturbance public. While the meeting was at fever heat it was learned that Mrs. Pettee had poured her tale of woe into the ears of an evening | paper reporter, and in such a manner as to cast serious reflections upon the whole organization. Then there was a row. Lady members stormed and the male contingent fumed. Mrs. Nathan Schlessenger excitedly arose and demanded of Mrs. Pettee if she was responsible for the newspaper publication. The laiter declined to answer, and she was denounced by nearly all for her ut- terances. Finally Mrs. Schlessenger saw a way by which the dignity of the society could be maintained, and upon a motion another member was placed in the chair. A second motion that Mrs. Pettee's resignation be not accepted was passed as quickly as it was made, and a third mo- tion declared the office of president vacant. The fourth motion was for the expulsion of Mrs. Pettee from the organi- zation, and, iike the others, it went through without a dissenting voice, and the late president quickly found herself on the outside of the fold, so to speak. Of course there were tears and denun- ciation, in which nearly all took more or less part. Once outside Mrs. Pettee had many very bitter things to say, but on the inside the anzel of pence quickly spread its wings. A. R. Fredericks was elected to fil the chair vacated by Mrs Pettee and E. L. Moulton was elected as vice-presi- the former vice-president, R. E. Tuttle, being obliged to go KEast very shortly. And so it is believed that the matter ended. COALIFORNIA VOLUNTEERS.
