RAINFALL IN THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY. STOCKTON, March 17.—Special tele- | phone messages to the Mail from all over | San Joaquin County and from points in | Merced, Stanislaus and Sacramento coun- | ties, indicate that the rain of last night | has been pretty general throughout the San Joaquin Valley. From nearly every point the report comes that the rain has been a great blessing, but that showers occastonally will be needed to insure first- class grain crops. The outlook on the whole, however, 18 good and farmers are jubilant over the prospects. It is con- | ceded that the usual showers which come | in April and the fore part of May will keep the sofl sufficiently irrigated to as- sure the largest grain crop for some years in San Joaquin, Stanislaus and the north- ern part of Merced counties. The report comes that on the west side of Modesto | there was an inch and a half of rain, with .63 of an inch at Farmington, .61 at Mont- pelier, with half an inch of snow and | nearly an_inch of rain at Linden, and all | the way from a quarter to half an inch | at other grain raising points in this part of the valley. In Stockton the rainfall for this storm was_.53. Converted Into a War Vessel. NEW YORK, March 17.—The May- flower was taken to the Brooklyn navy- war vessel, | and Jackson streets.

Pretended to Represent a Rich Syndicate in Quest of Mining Property. So Considerable Money Was Ob- tained to Pay an Expert to Examine Claims Offered for Sale. Special Dispatch to The Call. RIVERSIDE, March 17.—A neat swindle or confidence game has been worked in this city on Ike Witherspoon, E. H. Gruwell and other prominent cit- izens who own several mines in the Tanquitz mining district. A couple of months ago two men, H. W. Clay and D. T. Jackson, came here and stated that they represented a rich syndicate of Kansas City which wanted to buy mines. They at once gave the mine owners to understand that there was a good opportunity to sell at a good figure if the mines would prove what was claimed for them, and to bring the matter to a head it was pro- posed by the schemers if the owners of the mines would furnish the necessary funds to have a test of the mines made by a competent man they would un- dertake to make the sale. The men were of good address and told a very plausible story and were not suspected, and so were given some- thing like $1000 to be used as stated. Time wore on, and as Clay and Jack- son did not report, Witherspoon and Gruwell became suspicious. The lat- ter demanded an_explanation last Monday of Clay and soon after he and Jackson left, since which time they cannot be found. Clay claimed to be president of a railroad in Kansas, and Jackson the president of a bank in the same State. Other partles whom they tried to swindle learned that their representa- tions were false. The precaution prob- | ably saved them a large sum of money. Since the operations of the pair have come to light it has been learned that Clay and Jackson have swindled more than Riversiders, for it is stated that Mr. Judson, a well-known Colton min- er, fell a victim to their schemes, and also that Joe Brown is a victim to the extent of several hundred dollars. Dur- ing one of the trips of the precious pair to this city they were accom- panied by three other men named Dr. Davis of St. Louis, and Fred and Charles Fuller of Kansas City. These latter were sald by Clay and Jackson to be the capitalists who were seek- ing investment in the mines. The | Sheriff received word this evening that Jackson had started East on the Cen- tral Pacific, and it is expected he will be arrested at Ogden. Clay is thought to be in hiding in this vicinity.

At Least Five Thousand Dollars Fed ‘o the Flames in a Miner’s Cabin. an Absence He Found a Lunatic at Work. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEW WHATCOM, Wash., March 17. Tom Perry, a miner of Ruby Creek, this county, has gone insane. He has acted queerly at times and neighbors thought him eccentric. A few days ago he became worse and in a destruc- tive fit burned up the savings of his best friend for ten years, amounting to thousands of dollars. The money be- longed to John McMillan, who has suc- cessfully carried on placer mining ope- rations on Ruby Creek. McMillan has been afrald of banks, particularly since every bank in Whatcom was closed for a time during the panic of four years ago. Before the banks closed McMillan saw clouds in the financial sky, and with- drew his money. He has since kept it in a secret hiding place in his cabin. A few friends knew he had it, but they were to be trusted and as his placers are entirely off any route of travel he has felt absolutely secure. Year by year he has ‘increased hi tending eventually to g lead an easfer life. Last weelk Mc- Millan had to leave camp and go to Mt. Vernon on a semi-annual trip for supplies. It has been his custom when going away to leave some one in Perry, who has been visiting him, was asked to remain. Perry consented and McMillan rode away, feeling perfectly secure. During his absence Perry became im bued with an insane desire to destroy everything in sight. He split chairs into kindling wood, broke dishes and turvey. The dogs were left unfed and the cow turned loose to pick her living among the snow covered hil's, savings there and apparantly hunted consisting chiefly of treasury certicates, put to- cash, notes and silver put into the fire. Perry probably chuckled as he saw the flames devour ten years’ savings of his friend. He was still grinning when McMillan re- | turned, thunderstruck at the destruc- | tion that had been wrought. He looked in vain for his money. Demanding to the stove. Inside were found the black- ened double eagles and & small ash heap which he recognized as the re- mains of his paper money. ' Perry’s leer and incoherent talk denoted his condition so completely that MeMillan refrained from upbraiding him. He does mnot state his exact loss, but friends place it at over $5000. Perry has been taken to Everett for treatment cr commitment to an asylum. PYTHIAN ROSE CARNIVAL TO BE HELD AT SANTA ROSA. Elaborate Preparations for a Daz- zling Display and a Long, Gorgeous Pageant.

Fast and Furious Battle for the Lightweight Championship of the World. Vicious Bouts, in Which the Pugilists Each Showed Themselves to Be Exceedingly Clever. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. CLEVELAND, March 17. — The twenty-round go between Kid Lavigne and Jack Daly for the lightweight championship of the world at the Cen- tral Armory to-night resulted in a draw. The fighting was fast and fu- rious from the start, but the contest- | ants were so evenly matched that | neither could gain an advantage over | the other sufficient to get a decision in his favor. The story of the fight by rounds: Round 1—Lavigne landed left on neck. Lavigne and Daly landed right and left. Good scientific work: both jabbed fre- quently. Lavigne reached home three or four times more than Daly. Round 2—After Lavigne had landed heavily on the face several times, Daly caught him unawares and sent in a straight left drive, bringing blood and bruising Lavigne's eye. The round was decidedly warm. Round 3—The men never rested and it was a pretty round. Just before the gong sounded Lavigne landed stralght left on the stomach. It was a bad one. Round 4—Lavigne landed with the left in the face. Lavigne rushed Daly. Daly | sent in right swing. Daly landed left full | on the jaw and sent Lavigne down. | vigne came up quickly. he finish was | lively. Lavigne went down again. Round 5—Opened with lively spa.fl'inF. Daly got a left on the jaw and a y followed. In-fighting followed. Daly land- | ed heavily with left on Lavigne's jaw. Round 6—They were up against the | ropes and Lavigne was cuffed hard. La- vigne landed a hot one on the eye. Daly | countered on the jaw. Quick work fol- | lowed. Daly landed on the cheek. Round closed with both men in good shape. Round 7—Opened with right and left counters. Daly landed heavily on stom- ach and received a hard one on jaw. | Round $—Daly landed with right on the aw, but Lavigne countered hard. The d landed viciously with the left on | face, the hardest blow yet. Daly again landed with the left on jaw, and in re- | turn received a tap on the stomach. | “Round $—Lavigne jabbed hard with left, but Daly stopped him nicely. They went at it hard. Lavigne landed on the cheek. Lavigne landed hard on suoulder. Signs of weariness shown. Round 10—Harmless tapping. Lavigne slipped, going down on all fours. a- vigne made false move, received a a blow in the face and put his head through the ropes. Round ended with easy infighting. Round ll—Lavigne sent in an effective drive on Daly's chest. Daly countered on Both ducked and Lavigne landed Daly displayed good generalship. Round 12—Bad mix-up. Vicious spar- uarters. Lavigne guarded landed on chest with heavily on chest. ring at close well and finally right. Round 13—The Kid landed heavily on ribs. Daly ducked; Lavigne landed heav- ily on chest. Round 1i—Daly was dodging, but re- celved a right swing on the face. He re- sponded in the same fashion and after- ward landed with the left twice. Round 15—Daly landed on the jaw with a right swing.

Circumstances That Form Links to Show the Evidence ‘Will Be Conclusive. That the Prisoner Murdered His Brother Is Clearly Shown by the Prosecuting Officers. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NAPA, March 17.—The prosecution is putting in its evidence slowly, but is tight- ening the chain link by link about George W. Clark, notwithstanding the aggressive fight his attorneys are making for him. To-day Constable Spurr of St. Helena re- lated how he went to the murderer's cabin and found him in bed; the finding of the shoes in his room with fresh mud on them and how in company with Marshal John- son he examined the shoe tracks leading from the Clark house to the defendant's cabin on the Osborne place; how he dis- covered the paper under some books which was purported to be written by Clark, deceased, and which Clark told Sheriff McKenzie in the County Jail on the 21st of January that he wrote himself. P. Yorke, the man who saw Clark run- | ning down Madrone avenue on 918 morn- ing of the homicide, told his story on the witness stand in a straightforward man- ner, but he did not know whether it was the defendant or not. Dr. S. McCurdy gave testimony as to what was the cause of death of William Anderson Clark, and G. W. Schmidt iden- | tified the deceased's handwriting. The District Attorney offered this in evidence, Attorney Hogan entering vigor- ous objections, which were overruled. H. Schwarz gave strong evidence against the prisoner, identifying him as the man who bought a pistol at his store on January 5, 1898, but he could not say that the pistol shown him was the one he had sold defendant, but did identify the box of cartridges the defendant bought on that day. Attorney Webber, junior counsel for the defendant, conducted the cross-examina- tion and made a point for the defense be- cause the witness could not say it was the istol he had sold the defendant. Sheriff cKenzie testified in regard to the papers which were supposed to be written on by W. A. Clark, and produced them and they were admitted in evidence. The defend- ant admitted to the Sheriff in the County Jalil in January that he wrote them aim- self, and not his brother. McKenzie also related the story defendant told in the jail about the pistol; that he had lied about it and it was his. L. M. Turner corroborated the testi- mony of Shwarz, and Professor Gunn gave expert testimony on the handwriting on the papers in evidence. Attorney Ho- gan made strong objection to the same, but was overruled. The professor was not shaken on cross-examination. Court adjourned until Friday. HOW NEN FOUGHT THE Continued from Bighth Page. the real returns from them are as yet indefinite and uncertain. This is their period of demonstration. They are be- ing prospected, and their value will be determined this winter. The stampede is still busy, and the staking of known and unknown creeks goes on steadily as ever. Suspicion of crookedness in the Gold Commissioner’s office has become so widespread that it is the common talk of the street, insomuch that Commis- sioner Fawcett posted notices in sev- eral public places calling upon all who had knowledge of any queer doings on the part of his clerks to send their ad- dress, and their evidence would be taken. In the meantime he suspended two of his men, Robert Craig and Wil- liam Bolton. It was said that they regularly sold information as to va- cated claims and such things. No one coming forward with the evidence, they were reinstated. The great number of men compelled to go down the river has had a revivi- fying effect on the Birch Creek mines. They are nearly all at work again. Be- sides, a great deal of prospecting is being done in the streams of the lower river. A big stampede is on from this place to Mission Creek or American River, that enters the Yukon near the Ameri- can side of the boundary line. Excel- lent prospects having been found there, Several parties have started for the Tanana, and others are going up the Kuyokuk and beyond. In a word the country is being pros- pected as it has never been before, and great discoveries may be recsonably expected as the result. That gold lies under the ice and snow all over this frozen land seems to have been dem- onstrated. The keenest interest is felt in the development of the Tanana, and its fastness will be invaded, and some of its secrets discovered, 10 doubt, this coming summer. Both the big trading companies in- tend sending boats up there and estab- lishing posts, and Captain Geiger will take his boat from St. Michael as far up the stream as h: can get before the river again closes. If the vague rumors that come to us in here really betoken the coming new spring of such an army (the stampede of the world), as some people say they do, the grim old Yukon that has frozen and flooded and flooded and frozen all down through its hoary old life and heard no sound save the croak of its ravens and the drone of its siwashes will then hear and witness such things as it never dreamed of in its long, long sleeps. FAST WORK ON THE CLINTON PARK TRACK. LITTLE ROCK, Ark.,, March 174—1'110' gates of Clinton Park racetrack of the Arkansas Jockey Club were thrown open to the public to-day and a great throng went out to see the horses work. The feature of the day was the splendid ;er— formance of McGuigan's 3-year-old, Ban- nockburn, who worked a mile in 1:43%, unds up. The record was the practice work ever performed on the track. The spring meeting opens on March 30 and many of the most famous horses have already arrived. — e — NO SPRING MEETING. LEXINGTON, Ky., March 17.—For the first time in its history the famous Ken- tucky Association will have no spring meeting. Manager J. Hull Davidson ar- rived here from New York a week ago, intending to get up a meeting, but after consultation with turfmen to-night an- nounced that the project will be aban- doned. It was attempted to get legisla- tion confining each track to thirty days each year, but without success, and since Newport has taken dates claimed gy the Kentucky association it was decided to declare the meeting off here. The course -is now owned by Charles Green and a party of gentlemen of St. Louis. [CY DEATH Death in Dust. Every time you feel the wind blow you are certain to draw many millions of disease germs into your body. Theyare of all kinds and are all poisonous. “But," you say, “I cannot help this ; they are bound to come." Very true, but you can drive them out. «How? ' By using a good, powerful stimulant, which will kill them before they have a chance to get their hold on you. Such a stimulant is not easy to find but it is found completely in Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey which is so highly recommended and is so popular. It is the essence of purity, and if you begin to use it at once you will be surprised to find how much better you feel and how your health improves. Philadelphia Shoe Co.
