The s wis lormerly the sh_bar Walkato and was built in Sunderland, England. Later she was sold to J. C. Pfluger & Co. of Bremen and was re- named after the head of the firm. 'She carried grain from this port to Europe for several years, and was on her way to Cork for orders when she was dismasted off this coest by & whirlwind.

Dust flies in clouds and for five minutes at & time it is im- possible to see across the street. Fine al is ariven from the bunkers into peo- ?e'l eyes and the attendants at the Har- Eor Hospital are kept busy giving the gufferers relief. Most of the dust comes from the unpaved portion of the front be- tween Lombard and Powell streets. The Harbor Commissioners have a scheme to remedy this evil. The night watchmen on the fire tugs have rarely anything to do and find it hard work to pass the time. In future they will have to spend two or three hours every night in watering the street with the fire hose. The thoroughfare will be thoroughly saturated and will not have time to dry out between each soak- ing. Arrival of the Curacao. The Pacific Coast Steamship Company’s Curacao arrived from Mexican ports yes- terday with the following named cabin passengers: Ramon Barraza, Ysabel H. de Viosca, Lau Rosa_Viesca, Leura Hidalgo, Samuel Tyack, Prank Emith, Samuel Jones. John G. Brick, John Gibson and Thomes Gibson. When the Curacao was here last one of the steerage passengers named Concep- cic Herera was refused a landing at but later GRAPE-NTTS. FEED YOURSELF SCIENTIFIGALLY Some Sure Results From Proper Food Selection. vas given permission on Farmers select certain food to bring about desired results ia their animals, but it is not so easy s matter with the complex machine called man (or more highly organized woman). The food specialist, however, has been &t work, and in Grape-Nuts we find a food containing delicate natural particles of Phosphate of Potash and larger quan- tities of albumen. These unite in the human body, forming the peculiar soft substancé which fills the celis of the brain. desires to use a food directly for brain-building may be depended upon. Fortunately it is one of the most de- licious bits of food used by mankind, the delicate sweet of Grape-Sugar being of the most charming character.

He D pealed to the Mexican Consul and that official offered to his passage back to Ensenada. Herera accepted and on arriving at his destination was ted as a deserter. \When the Curacao left Mexico the ex-pilot was serving a five years' sentence for desertion. His wife has disappeared and the Immigration Of- ficer 18 looking for her. When found she will be sent back to Mexico, as she has broken faith with the Government oill- clals here. -— Australia Delayed Again. The Oceanic Steamship Company's Aus- tralia will not get away for Tahitl until to-morrow at 11 a. Some necessary re- pairs have to be made and a quantity of treight taken aboartl. Forty Chinese, en route to Papeete, who came from Hong- kong on the Nippon Maru, will be trans- ferred to the Australla to-day. Some of the Mongolians have homes in the islands and the others are going there to work. Lot e ‘Water Front Notes. The British tramp steamer Indrapura arrived from Calcutta yesterday with a cargo of jute and grain bags. She was rlnrsfl in quarantine and will not be re- eased until this morning. The cargo is valued at about $1,000,000, The battleship Wisconsin will be open to visitors to-day and Peterson's launches will carry all who want to make the trip out to her during the afternoon.

The Amador Ledger says: The report that Hoyward and assoclates in- tend_erecting an electrlo power plant on Dry Creek, near the Centennial mine, has caused | more or less talk about the resumption of operations at the old Empire and Pacific | mines. While it 1s not improbable thiys, vent- ually these mines will bo reopened, \reed Ap- pears to be no good ground for the bei, that work will begin this season.

Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets GIVEPERFECT DIGESTION,SOUND SLEEP, STRONG NERVES. * A Popular Remedy for Dyspepsia Which Has Made Many Re- markable Cures. The spring of the year is the time for blood purifiers. It is the season when we think we must dose ourselves with sarsa- parillas, bitters and the endless list of so- called blood purifiers and nerve tonics. As a matter of fact, there is but one possible way in which to purify the blood and that is through the stomach and bowels. Pure blood results from wholesome food thoroughly digested. Impure blood results from poor digestion and assimilation. When the stomach refuses to work. prop- erly the food remains too long a time, fermenting, forming gases, shown by sour, bitter taste in the mouth, bloating and belching of gas, and distress and dis- comfort generally.
