CRUISER ETNA WILL DOCK FOR REPAIRS She Will Go to the Navy-Yard. A RECEPTION FOR THE CREW TAIN OFFICERS AND MEN. Steam Whaler Thrasher Brings News From Kotzebue Sound—The Miners Were in Win- ter Quarters. The officers and majority of the crew of the Italian cruiser Etna came ashore yesterday to see how an election was conducted in America. They visited the polling booths in the vicinity of the water front in crowds during the day, and both officers and men commented upon thg orderly nner in which things were done. The Etna will be in port a During that time the Italian colony will give a grand re- ception and ball in honor of the crew of | the warship, and there will be return functions aboard the Etna. During her stay the cruiser will go on the drydock at Mare Island, but as the date on which she will go to the navy-yard has not been fixed no time can be sct for the projected festivities. There was a great outpouring of the Italian colony during the day, and Peter- son’s launches were kept busy carrying tors to the warship. No one was taken aboard in the ship's boats, but all the visitors who went out were permitted to board and inspect the cruiser. The officers of the Etna are Captain Giovanni Giorillo; Lieutenant Commander Stanis- lois Lorecchio, executive officer; Lieuten- ant Angelo Frank, navigating officer; Lfeutenant Gionnelli, D. Loreto, Mouray, Lechi; ensign, Coltelletti Contracan midshipmen, Gandolfo, Vigo, Perce, Pofsi, De Orentis; ‘chief engineer, Montaldo; as- sistant engineers, tena, Penzo, Ver- zeginetti; surgeon, Caforio; paymaster, Pinetti. First Lieutenant John B. Bennett of the Seventh Infantry, aid to General Mer- riam, officially called on the commanding officer of the Italian cruiser Etna se: day morning for the purpose of formaily offering to the vessel and its officers the courtesies of the harbor and neighboring | post on the part of the department com- | mander. This visit will be formally 1e- turned by the officers of the vessel to- day. The steam whaler Thrasher arrived from the Arctic yesterday with 15,000 pounds of whalebone. She brought down two of the Kotzebue Sound gold hunters who walked from the Kubuck River to Point Hope in the expectation of catch- | ing a whaler bound for San Francisco. They left the other gold hunters in wi ter quarters on October 5. The rivers were not- frozen then and it looked as though there would be a couple more weeks of open weather. Provisions were plentiful and four houses had been erect- ed at the mouth of the Kubuck and three schooners were wintering there. There was an Indian village and a missionary in the vicinity, so the miners will not be lonesome during the winter. There will be a great amount of prospecting done during the cow weather. One miner found some rich quartz, but it was only float rock, and a party was searching for the ledge 'when the camp broke up. The river steamer John Riley, that went on a sandbar, has been shored up for the winter, and it is expected that she will be got off in the spring without any dam- | ge. The returned miners bring word that | all letters for Kotzebue Sound should be | sent via St. Michael, as a dog team is to be sent to that point at different times during the winter. The river steamers T. C. Walker and Dauntless were in coilision at Benicia early yesterday morning. The Walker was backing out when she took a sheer and bore down on the Dauntless. The latter had three or four of her stanchions and a number of timbers broken. The Walker was not injured to any extent. The Alaska Commercial Company’s steamer St. Paul will sail again on_the | 17th inst. for Manila. She has been char- tered by the Government to take down the surplus freight left behind by the other transports. Captain J. B. McCulloch lost his vote yesterday.. He was detailed to pilot the transport Newport to sea, but as she was | to sail early in the day he thought he could take her out and get back in time to cast his ballet on his way home in the evening. Owing to the non-arrival of freight and one or two other matters it | was after 3 p. m. before the transport left the wharf, and it was nearly 8 p. m. be- fore McCulloch got back to terra firma. And that was the way Alameda lost one good Republican vote. The new ferry steamer Berkeley is not what she was cracked up to be. Either owing to the fact that her engines are ot down to their bearings or from some other cause, she is not nearly so fast as she was expected to be. Then she does Tot steer any better than the law allows and her twin screws are a sad drawback When it comes to entering and leaving the ferry slips. All these defects are be- ing overcome, but it will be some time before the Berkeley is put permanently on the run between San Francisco and Oakland.

He Tells Fantastic Stories to Captain Wittman. A. Ballinger created a sensationaround police headquarters yesterday by de- manding the protection of two detectives, as he was afraid that he was to be mur- dered by three men who persisted in fol- lowing him around. He declared that he was the champion feather-weight of the world, besides being the champion swim- mer, jumper and runner. The reason why the men wanted to murder him was because he was engaged to be married to a girl worth $10,000,000, and he showed her photograph which he had in a locket. His backers would cor- roborate his story. The freaky visitor was sent downstairs to Captain Wittman, where he repeated the same story. The captain thought he had been celebrating too freely and ordered him locked up ir the prison on a charge of *‘drunk.” Late: he was sent to the insane ward of the Re- ceiving Hospital and will be examined by the Insanity Commissioners this morn- ing. He was attired in training costume and wore a big yellow chrysanthemum in his buttonhole. —_——————————— *“Anakesis,”” the great external pile rem- edy, is indorsed by the best physicians.* — ADVERTISEMENTS.
