Contractors Propose to Use Quartz on the Thorough- fares. —— Special Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, April 17.—Redding’s strests may be paved with gold. That sounds somewhat extravagant, yet in a measure it not only a possibility, but a very lumin- ous probabtlity. This morning Charles W. Pope and J. H. Bingham were inspectihg the quallty of rock and granite handy that can be used for street improvements. Bingham is here from San Francidco with a view { to bidding on street work. While look- | ing over the country adjoining the old Dakin place on the hill in West Redding they uncovered a ledge of quartz. The specimens carried traces of gold. 5 Bingham states, that this is excellent material for street work and when he succeeds in getting contracts for the im- provements his firm will place a rock crusher on this quartz ledge, crush up the quar(s dnd,spread 1t OB the thorough- ares. The rock is a low-grade quartz and will assay $3 or $4 a ton. The next thing ln order will be to make gutters of copper ore, which is abundant. . |@BCAPES THE BUSTLE BUT LOSES HIS MONEY Vallejo Delegate to San Jose Conven- tion Sees Sights, Mostly Those of Pistols. SAN JOSE, April 17.—C. R. Hathaway, a delegate from Vallejo to the Repub- lican convention, had a thrilling experi- ence with two highwaymen in Alum Rock Park, the city reservation seven miles east of this cit; During his stay he stole away from the bustle of the convention to see the sights. While walking along a secluded path in the canyon two men stepped in front of him ,and at the point of a revolver com- pelled him to put up his hands. One of the men went through his pockets and took $25. Hathaway was then commanded to move one. He came to this city and reported the robbery. The police kept it a secret until to-day, in the hope of capturing the robber: —_———— Sunday-School Convention Closes.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, April 17.— A complete dramatic success in to-night's presentation of Sophocles’ Greek tragedy, “Antigone,”’ crowned the efforts of the students and the professors who have been engaged during the past four months in its preparation. Superb music, fitting scenery and careful costuming added to the perfect presentation of the tragedy, and the large audience which packed the assembly hall showed their appreciation by repeated applause. The stage setting, thoroughly Grecian in style, represented @4 space immediateiy in front of the king’s palace. On the _right were the entrances from the city of Thebes and on the left the wings repre- sented a forest adjoining the royal dwell- ing. At the back of the stage were rep- resented two immense Grecian doors, which allowed the ingress of the royal personages to the scene of the play, As in all. Grecian plays, the scene in “Anti- gone” is never changed, and the curtain does not fall from the time of the first appearance of Antigone until the final cgorus by Theban elders. To-night's pres- entation was dignified and without a de- lay of any kind, yet over two hours were consumed in_the performance. Enter Fair Antigone. A Mendelssohn overture, rendered beau- tifully by the university orchestra of thirty pieces, preceded the play in which Antigone and Ismene, her sister, are the first to appear. The former reminds the latter of the royal edict that one of their two brothers, who had fallen in battle, should remain unburied, which-would de- prive his spirit of peacé and happiness in the after life. Ismene, although pleaded with by Antigone, refuses to be a party to her sister's plot to defy the king and bury the brother, Antigone leaves to do the act alone and Ismene returns to the palace. The acting of the parts of the sisters by Miss Cooksey and Miss Crandall dur- ing this scene was full of feeling, even to those who did not understand the Greek. A guard brings news of the burial of the slain brother, and later, An- tigone is brought before King Creon as the culprit and pleads guilty. Ismene at- temgtl to share the blame, but is.ignored by her sister, who is sentenced to con- finement in a cave. Haemon, the king's son, and the betrothed of Antigone, pleads vainly with his father to save An- tigone from such_cruel punishment, but the king remains firm. ; Tragedy and Lamentation. The old: seer, Tiresias, warns the king of divine vengeance if the sen- tence is carried out, but his warnings are spurned. The king, however, is touched by the prophecies and starts for the cave repentantly, When he reaches it he finds Antigone dead by her own hand.. Hae- mon, his son, also commits suicde before his eyes. A messenger brings the news of the double death to Queen Eurydice, and she in anguish takes her own life. King Creon returns to the palace with Hae- mon’s lifeless body, and the curtain falls a%e?r’ Creon’s heartbroken lamentations. fessor Murray, as King Creon, could not \have been improved upon, his ren- derln’ of the Greek being given with deep feeling. This was true also of Pro- fessor H. ‘airclough, Professor 8.° S. Seward and the other leadin, of the drama. -J. K.

Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, April 17.—Some sensational charges havp been made agalnst Alex Peers, a prominent resident of this coun- ty, in his administratioh.of the estate of Narcissa B. Hollenbeck, deceased, by the heirs of the estate. In a petition filed to-day, Willlam Hol- lenbeck, Mabel Gordon and Louise Krah- enberg charged him with misgppropriating $6511 from the estate. Peers has been ad- ministrator of the estate since 1881. At that time ti: estate was appraised at $30,000. The legatees allege that only 0 accounts with the estate have been filed since that time, one in 1888 and another in 1894, until several days ago, when the third account was présented to the court. ‘This showed that the estate had shrunk to , a notable decrease from the first valuation. The heirs accuse the executor of mak- ing fraudulent and improper charges against the estate, and also of continually ;‘uggling the accounts, and claim®that he as run the esate to his own interests rather than to the interests of the heirs. They further claim that thousands of dollars have been taken from the estate through improper charges by the execu- or. .The Probate Court is asked to open up the accounts flled {n 1888 and in 1894, and that an investigation into the transac- tions of the executor be made.

POINT RICHMOND, April 17.—By the explosion of an ofl burner at 10:30 o'clock to-night at_the Santa Fe pumping sta- tion Hiram Pope, the engineer, was blown out of the fireroom and fatally burned. The pumping plant was damaged to the extent of $5000. Shortly before the accident Pope had gcne out of the engine room to throw a switch for a train. He returned to at- tend to the fire. When the explosion oc- curred he was standing directly in front of the bollers. It is supposed that during Pcpe's absence the flame was accidentally extinguished, that gas accumulated in the furnace and was exploded when the en- gineer again ignited the oil. The flames attracted John Bayliss and R. Chevosich, railroad workmen, who, at considerable peril to themselves, went into the pump house and dragged Pope out, his clothing all ablaze. He was terribly burned about the body. Such temporary relief as was at hand was given the injured man and he was taken on a special tugboat to the Rail- road Hospital at San Francisco. Pope is about 60 years of age. His family resides at Emeryville. 82 A Ccmpany Leaves a Combination.

HEROES STRINE T0 SIVE A LIFE Men Hold Companion’s Severed Vein on Long Journey. Special Dispatch to The Call. TUOLUMNE, April 17.—While sawing a log in the woods, nearly a score of miles from this place, H. Harvey, a former resident of Rushville, Iowa, received a fatal injury yesterday. A fellow work- man was driving a steel wedge, when a splinter of metal broke from it and sev- ered Harvey's jugular vein. The injured man would have bled to death In a few minutes, but his com- panion, with heroic solicitude, seized one end of the divided vein, and pressing the edges tightly between finger and thumb, prevented a further escape of blood. ‘The place where the accident occurred ‘was far out In the woods and medical at- tendance was not to be obtained at any place nearer than Tuolumne. The men immediately resolved to attempt the long Journey, and accompanied by another la- borer, they started. Harvey's comrade walked at his side, hold firmly the sev- ered vein, while the third man supported the injured sawyer. When the party had traversed a few miles blood began to flow from the vein, for the hands of the man who held it had become-numb under the strain. Then the laborer who had helped Har- vey along undertook to stay the flow. alternating in this severe task every mile or two, arvey's friends managed to bring him here. An operation was imme- diately performed, but it was too late. Harvey died soon after his arrival. Grays, Tam,l
