LIVELY TIME IN MARIN. | ¥uch Damage Dflonie to Property in | the Entire County. SAN RAFAEL, March 2.—Marin.County was visited by a severe wind and rain storm last night and great damage re- suited. The wind blew at a high rate eatly in the evening, and before nightfall increased in velocity. Trees were uproot- ed and fences suffered greatly. The Jor- dan Hotel uated on a high hill, was damaged by a portion of the roof being blown off. For some time pandcmonium reigned among the guests. The Domini. can Convent zlso suffered from the wind A large tree was uprooted and blown through the kitchen. Several persons nar- rowly escaped bodily harm. At Tiburon and Sausalito along the water fronts the small eraft suffered, but, owing to the continued storm for the past few davs, very few boats were not safely tied up. —.——— DAMAGE TO RAILRCAD. Wires and Rails Are Injured By Wind and Water. OAKLAND. March 2—The storm of Saturday night did much damage to the Southern Pacific Company, but that to the wires was more extensive than the damage to the tracks.

OWRE to the lack of wires it has been difficuit to discover the exact location of the va- rious washouts. The coast division was tled up as a through line by a, washout somewhere north of Santa Barbara. As the wires have been down all day the exact location is not known to the general railroad of- ficials. It was found necessary to divert I'all through trains from this line to the oxd San Joaquin Valley line, and thea into Oakland over the western division. They: all arrived to-day, but some of them quite late. * The O hour late. Y Next to this the most disastrous wash- out is on the old California. Pacific, near Swingles switch, about half-way between Davis and Sacramento. This country is badly flooded, and the heavy wind from the south last night drove the water from the Sacramento River up over the country and washed out the roadway badly. The Sacramento local train that con- nects with the Oregon/ train at Da- visville last night nearly ran into this washout. The train worked back to Davisville, and finally a train was sent around from Saéramento and both met at the washout, the passengers being transferred around. The regular train then returned to Davisville, where it was laid up. This washout caused all of the overland trains from Oregon and the East to be sent around by way of Stockton and Martinez. It was thought safer to | bring them by way of Martinez than over the Altamont. hill.” There was a bad slide at_Vallejo Junction last night, but the railroad officials put on a gang of forty | men and cleared that up in a hurry so ;hi‘; the overlands could get into Oak- and. F The country between Benicia and Davis- ville is under water, the strong south wind piling the water from the river into the low lands, but the raflroad. track 1s be- lieved to“be intact. There has been no trcuble on the) Livermore line, and the line by way of Martinez+is in good shape. In the San Joaquin Valley there is no trouble either with tracks or wires. The worst damage seems to have been along the bay shore between Oakland and Port Costa, where the wires were open (o the full sweep of the wind. There were 118 telegraph poles broken off between Oakland and Port Costa. Many of these ‘were snapped off and some were torn out ofithe ground.

How Ike Smith Saved the Berkeley. That the fergy-boat Berkeley was not destroyed on Saturday night with a fear- ful loss of life is due to Captain Ike Smith of the tug Sea Queen. he Sea Queen was the first boat to reach the imperiled ferry-boat. There was but twelve feet | of water where the Berkeley was lying, | jammed against the wharf, and the ses | was breaking flercely. The Sea Queen went too close at first and narrowly es- caped belng wrecked. Smith managed to clear the breakers, however, and before making another attempt to get a line un the Berkeley got his own anchor ready for use. His first attempt with the an- chor was a failure. The however, he went further to windward, let go his anchor, and by paying out chain dropped down on the ferry-boat un- | til near enough to throw a heaving lnc, Passengers and crew seized this lfne and soon had the Sea Queen’s hawser aboard | the Berkeley and made fast. To get this | line aboard Smith virtually had to take his boat right into the breakers. He risk- ed his vessel, his life and the lives of all his men. The Southern Pacific officials realize that the escape from death and destruns- tlon of passengers and ferry-boat is due to the towboat man that dared, and it s sald that official recognition will be taken of Captain Ike Smith’'s bravery.

The river steamer City of Stockton ran ashore at Polnt Pinole on Saturday even- ing and remained in the mud all night, The river steamer Onisbo went ashore during Saturday’s storm at the mouth of the San Joaquin River, i B L For Sprains Use Salva-cea.

The dog s.ept in a woodshed back of the ranch house, and at the rear of the shed there was an open window, or rather a place where it had been intended to put a win- dow. Last week the two men were awak- | ened by the noise of a struggle in the woodshed and Rowe ‘found that an im- mense wildcat had crept through the win- dow and pounced on the dog. . When fowe opened the door of the shed the cat left the dog and attacked him, and when Cole appeared on the scene he in turn became the special ob- ject of the feline’s wrath until Rowe could bring a jamp. The cat ran from the light; and, making her way into the kitchen, hid behind the stove. The dog was called in and made a game attack on the wild beast, the two rolling out of the kitchen door In the struggle. Rowe grabbed his gun, but in attempting to he.p his dog out of a predicament he shot both dog and cat with the same bullet.
