The schooners Guide and vennie Thelin and the ship Spartan had a hard time of it on the coast. The Guide was 8 days getting here from Eureka, the Thelin 28 days from Grays Harbor and the Spartan | 30 "aays from the Sound. The latter is one of the old time clippers and for a | while was given up as lost. Captain Po- lite weathered the gale, however, and came in with all his sails. The Guide lost fifty bundles of shingles and some of her deckload, while the The- lin lost 30,000 feet of her deckload. All | three vessels had a rough time and the Sparian was several times in peril. The old timer is again in port, however, ap- parently none the worse for her rough experience. P Experimenting on Lights. The Harbor Commissioners will make a number of experiments on the penetrat- | ing effect of lights in a fog during the coming winter. Acting on the suggestion of President Kilburn, the commission has | ordered Electrician F. E. Whorf to test all the shades of color from the ferry tower. So far his tests show that green penetrates the fog farther than any other color. Red shows up well and white is almost lost. It is the intention of the | commission to have a searchlight placed | In the ferry tower and during the coming winter the tests will be held. Should | green prove to be the most prominent and far-reaching color in a fog it will be | used on all the signal stations, and also on the ferry tower. The consensus of | opinion among ferry captains and local ‘ shipping men is that green is the coming color in a fog. Wnter Front Notes.

Swan, late of the bark Aureola and later of the tug Hercules, re- turned from a three years’ sojourn in Alaska on the Umatilla. He came from Dutch Harbor on the revenue cutter The- tis to Seattle and thence to San Fran- cisco on the regular liner. He says Alas- ka is destined to be one of the great States of the Union. He sees no reason why it should not be as densely popu- lated as Sweden, Norway and Finland, and asserts that had those countries the same facilities and means of livelihood for the population there would never a Swede, Norwegian or Finn come to the United States. Captain Swan continued: “The people will have to go to Alaska and grow up there. They must get used to the climate and conditions and when the young Alaskans come to maturity Uncle Sam will have the sturdiest race of men on earth to draw from in an emergency.” Captain Swan goes north in the spring.

Mrs. Gonzales of 1121 Kearny street caused the arrest last evening of Aurellio Aballi, a marine fireman, on a charge of burglary. She attended a wake in the Latin quarter Wednesday evening and on returning to her home discovered that the house had been entered and a $20 Mexican bill and jewelry valued at $400 stolen. Suspecting Aballi she went to his home and accused him of having com- mitted the crime. He indignantly denied that he knew anything about the Kurglnry and ordered her away. Meeting Police Officers Holmes and Skain she told them of her suspicions and they decided to ar- rest Aballl. He was found last night and taken to the City Prison. When searched the stolen bill was found in his possession. —_————— Company I Entertains.
