Menotti & Jackson, boat-builders of Sausa- lito, have just completed a gasoline launch, which is creating quite a sensation in the bay town. The boat was built for Attorney L. C. Pistoles| of this city and is of peculiar con- struction. It is built on what is known as the torpedo model. It has a ram bow and a stern on the plan of the rear end of a torpedo. { 5 feet long, 6 feet beam, is equipped with rsepower ine and has a speed of st eight knots. Soon after the Sequoia, as the boat is named, was launched, Poundmaster | Black began to receive complaints of a stray | at made Sa lito evenings hideous with | es. The cow frequented the bay shore judging from the persistence and pathos of its cries, had been recently bereft of its off- | epring. Thrge nights Black laid in wait for the wanderer. He had heard the cries himself, I his vigilance was unrewarded by & sign, even of bossy’s tracks. The chase ended on Tuesday night, when Black, awakened hyi cow followed the sound to the bay re no sign of the animal, but | sh Th just as he was about to return home the Se- quoia glided past. A voice came out of the right: “‘Hello, Biack! How d’ye like this for | a siren?’ Then there rose in the night the | melancholy wail for which Black had blamed a vagrant cow. There is said to be nothing just like the Sequoia’s siren in existence. Its tone is a perfect imitation of a cow's cry, and it is sald that several enterprising Sausalito milkmen have offered Pistolesi fancy prices for his brass whistle. a5 gee o Bl Enterprise Arrives. The Matson Navigation Company’s steamship Erterprise arrived vesterday, ten sdays from | Hilo. She brought thirty passengers and 2500 tons of cargo. Head winds and a desire on Captain Miller's part to save ofl prevented the pioneer of ocean-going oil burners from making better time. Captain Matson’s oil enthusiasm is not diminished by the fact that the Enter- prise did not make o g0od a speed showing as on the previous voyage. The vessel's engineers are more than satisfied with the success of the liguid fuel experiment and deciare that ofl has succeeded coal and has come to stay. p—" Fumigating Barges. \ The Government is going to improve its quarantine equipment at this port, and the days of the old fumigating hulk off San Quentin are now numbe; At first it was proposed to re- place the hulk with an iron dock, but this was abandoned in view of certain engineering ob- stacles. It has been decided to construct two large barges and equip them with modern fumi- geting apparatus. They will be stationed off Angel Island, and with their ald the Federal quarantine officials will be able to fumigate vessels with less delay than at present. New Schooner Launched. The three-masted schooner Oakland was launched yesterday afternoon at Stone’s ship- voyage. The Oakland was rigged and ready for sea before she slid down the ways. She is owned largely in Oakland ‘and will trade be- tween that port and the Nehalem and Siuslaw rivers. The Humboldt Lumber Company will manage the new vessel. She has a carrying cupacity of 600,000 feet of lumber and is equipped with double steam hoists, fore and Her hull is on the scow model, and when laden she will draw only ten feet of water. Her hatches are unusually large, having been spe- clally designed for the rapid handling of cargo. A R 23 Passed Through Sea of Lava. The schooner Pearl, which arrived yesterday from Sanak, Alaska, with 60,000 codfish, re- ports that on June 26, between latitude 52.18 north, longitude 157.24 west, and 51.30, north and 155.45 west, she passed through a lot of floating lava. The pumice stone was in- pleces of varying sizes and is supposed to have come from one of the Alaska volcanoes. The ship Fiorence, which arrived at Tacoma the other day, reported a similar experience in about the same vicinity. i The Pearl also reports that the schooner Viking, reported wrecked and supposed to be a total loss, salled from Sanak on June 24 for this port.( —— An Artistic Folder. The Pacific Mail Steamship Company has just issued & “‘round the world” folder, which con- tains a number of artistic {llustrations of some 07 the world’s most beautiful spots. The serles of {llustrations starts with a view of the beach Japan, Manila, India, Egypt and back to the New World, winding up in the beautiful Yo- semite Valley. The descriptive matter is writ- ten in interesting vein and contalns informa- tion of much practical value to travelers. iy T Captain von Helms a Pilot. Captain John von Helms, formerly com- | mander of the steamship Curacao, and one of the best-known navigators on this coast, was yesterday appointed a bar pilot to _succeed Captain Lonis Meyer, whose health made neces- sury his reeignation.

Missing Vessel May Have Succored the Burning Fannie Kerr. ity Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., July 9.—Considerable alarm was being felt at Honolulu when the steamer Moana left there on July 2 regarding the voyage of the training ship Mohican, which has 200 men and boys of the Urited States navy on board. The Mohican was then forty-one days out from Yokohoma for the island port, and Admiral Terry in an interview given at Honolulu expressed the opinion that she had in all probability met with heavy scutheast weather, such as had prevailed for some time previous at Honolulu. On July 'l a report reached Honmolulu that the overdue training ship had been sighted, trimming ship, oft one of the outer islands of the Hawalilan group. | The report could not be confirmed, how- ever, and the steamer Mikahala, which reached port the following morning from the island of Kaual, off which the Mo- hican would likely be first sighted, | brought no report of her. The Honoluly Bulletin advances the theory that the overdue training ship has in all probability fallen in with the burn- ing ship Fannie Kerr, which was aban- doned off the islands on May 20. The Bulletin says: “The Mohican was expected here a week ago and there is the possibllity that | she has met with the roaming hulk of | the steel Britisher, and she would. not | likely desert her if an opportunity oi- fered to put a crew aboard. Few vessels would be more likely to discover the Fan- | nic Kerr than the Mohican, for the latter ! would not necessarily confine herself to the beaten track of travel.” AGED FARMER DISAPPEARS WITH POCKETFUL OF COIN ‘Well-Known Resident of Oak Grove Near Salinas Disappears in Peculiar Manner. SALINAS, July 9.—William Downs, 73, years old, for over forty years a resident of Oak Grove and a wealthy farmer, has | been missing since yesterday morning. i Downs left his house about § o’clock and was seen in a barber shop here, where | he had his beard shaven off and the white hair on his head closely cropped. He had | several hundred dollars in his possession | when he left home. No reason is as- | signed for his disappearance.

WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao, July 9.—General Castro, Presidént of Ven- ezuela, arrived at Barcelona, in the State | of Bermudez, Venezuela, on board the steamer Ostun. The Osiun towed two schooners laden with Government troops | to Barcelona from La Guaira, whieh port | she left last Sunday. Barcelona, which is three miles from the coast, is partly surrcunded by the revolutionists, who are sald to be quite numerous. President Cas- tro dees not intend to attack the ememy before next Sunday. | WASHINGTON, July 9.—Among the of- ] ficials at the State and Navy depart-| ments the opinion prevails that President | Castro of Venezuela is “on his last legs" and that before long the revoiutionists will have proctaimed General Matos the new Presiaent of the republic. No ad-| vices were received to-day regarding the | as it now exists, but there is every reason to believe that it is critieal end that a battie between the Govern- ment troops whom Castro left Caracas to lead and the revolutionists, who are fully 10,000 strong ‘and well armed, is at hand. Should the fortunes of war turn against Castro he probably will flee the He is supposed to-have gained | sreat wealth by successful financiering during his incumbency as President. At last reports from Venezuela Castro intended going to Barcelona. According | to a report received from Commander | McLean of the Cincinnatl, the revolution- a1y forces were strong there. ‘I'nat the situation at Porto Cabello was grave was evident in the communication from Commander McLean at La Guaira, received by the Bureau of Navigation to- day, In which he states that Commander Nichols, commanding the Topeka. had, in response to a request from United States Consul Ellsworth at Porto Cabello, taken Miss Jessie Ellsworth, his daugh- ter, and Miss Winifred Estrey, his niece, from Port Cabello to La Guaira. Porto| Cabello was at the time surrounded by | insurgents. The conditions were extreme- | ly unsettled. It is understood that re-| ports have been received from Command- er McLean bearing on the true aspect of the situation, but have not been made public.
