WICOW FINDS GOLD IN A LIFELESS GOOSE Woman Living Near Old Placer Claims Makes a Queer and Prof- itable Discovery. | NEVADA CITY, July 19.—Mrs. Lavinia | Thomas, a widow, residing on Gold Flat, this week killed a large, fat goose from the flock. While cleaning it she discoy- | ered several shining nuggets inside. The gold was taken to an assay office ard netted $18. There are many old placer claims vicinity of Mrs., Thomas' place, nndmnmi: presumed that the goose in its search for food among the old diggings picked ap the precious metal.

CARSON, Nev., July 19.—Word was re- | ceived here this afterncon in the form of |a dispatch to H. H. Yerington, superin- { tendent of the Virginia and Truckee Rail- | road, that a gold ledge of great value has | been found twenty miles from Sodaville ! and in the direction of Tenopah. It is re- ported to be the richest find yet made in that vicinity. Twenty-five years ago some float rock | was found near there and was of great value. Much time and an enormous | amount of money were spent in hunting | for the ledge, which is now said to have | been found. | The news of the find spread rapidly and | people are rushing to locate at Tonopah |and points adjacent. It is claimed that the find is but a continuation of the great Tonopah ledge, which is now regarded as the richest in the world. Should this be true the ledge, over forty miles in length, will produce an output of gold that will make Nevada the greatest gold-producing State in the country. Mrs. Lily Langtry de Bathe, who locat- ed some mines in the vicinity of Carson about ten or twelve years ago, writes from London, under date of July 4, that she will return to Nevada during the coming year and develop her properties.

SANTA CLARA THE MACKENZIE POWER Citizens All" Over the County Vote Al- most Unanimously BREAKS in Favor of Primaries and Bossism Receives a Death Blow Special Dispatch to The Call. AN JOSE, July 19.—All over Santa Clara County the citizens turned out to-day and wrested the selec- tion of State and county delegates from the hands of John D. Mac- kenzie by voting almost unanimqusly in favor of primaries. The total vote cast will go a little over 3000, and not over seventy-five are opposed to the selection of delegates at primaries. Many of the precincts voted unanimously, and in but one or two were more than three or four votes cast in the negative. The action of the citizens to-day means that the Mackenzieites are not to control the county nominations this fall. Com- ing on the defeat of the Harbor Commis- sioner in San Jose at the last city elec- tion, Mackenzie is shorn of practically all his power. Heretofore the boss has named the delegates to the county nominating conventions and selected the delegates to the State convention. This election promises to cut an im- portant figure with Gage’'s renomination. Mackenzie will be unable to deliver the Santa Clara County delegation. All of Gage's appointments in the county have been_ at Mackenzie's dictation and when it comes to electing delegates to Sacra- mento the citizens will remember this. San Jose did not vote on the question of primaries, as under the law they are obligatory. There are about 8000 votes outside of the city and nearly one-half of these were cast to-day. For vears the reformers have suffered by the appointments of delegates by Mac- kenzie, who has dominated every conven- tion, but their asking for primaries has always met with a flat refusal by the central committee. Foremost in the de- mand for primarjes has been the Repub- lican Gcod Govefament League, of which E. A. Hayes is president, and which has been such a factor in dethroning Mac- e Gow month ew months ago the league set about the task of sect:fing a majority of the signatures of the voters of Santa Clara County to a petition to the Board of Su- pervisors asking that the question of pri- maries be submitted to a vote of the peo- ple, which the law firuvlded for. This ne- cessitated over signers, but the league accomplished the feat, and the election was called. Elections will now be called for ' the election of delegates to the county and State Republican conventions. In the county districts the Good Government League is well organized and has its main strength, and it is probable they will elect all the delegates the Republican party. Date for Yolo. WOODLAND, July 19.—A meeting of the Republican County Central Commit- tee was held to-day for the purpose of calling a primary election lndpl conven- tion for the election of delegates to the State, Congressional and Senatorial con- ventions. The primaries will be held on Tuesday, August 13, and the convention on Saturday, August' 16. After a long wrangle it was decided to refer to the county convention the question of wheth- er eight delei&tea shall represent the county in all the conventions, or separate delegates be elected to each conventlon. The Yolo delegation will be unanimous for Coombs for Congress, but it is very uncertain how it will stand for Governor. L e e e e e e e S T S e e S o e S Y ) FRIENDS DOUBT HINCKLEY'S TALE Los Angeles Lawyer Says Oath Requires Silence. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, July 19.—The weird ory told by Attorney A. G. Hinckley, no suddenly returned home yesterday after a mysterious absence of two meonths, far from being taken seriously, is causing amusement among his friends und already evidence has been found which shows that his tale of having been captured by a gang of brigands and kept captive for weeks is hardly true. Hinck- ley still refuses to make a statement aad whenever questioned shows a copy of an alleged oath of secrecy which he says he took and in which he states that his life is the forfeit should he reveal where he has been. When Hinckley arrived last pight he intimated that he had been ac- companied almost to the door of his hoyse by two mempbers of the band who had held him cap#ve and who had told him they would kill him if he attempted 1o communicate with any person on the street. It is not known where Hinckley has been, but it is known that on Tues- day . morning he boarded the steam schooner Ruth at Mission pier, San Fran- cisco, and made the trip on that vessel to San Pedro. The captain says Hinckley kept in his stateroom most of the time end there wrote many pages on his type- writer. The name he gave on the steamer was C. H. Clayton, but he was positively identified by a neighbor, who saw him leave the vessel. He came from San Pedro alone and shipped his own trunk hiome. When confronted with positive evidence that he was a passenger on the boat he | sought refuge behind his oath and re- fused to talk. It is believed here that Hinckley took a trip to Alaska in search of mining property. To-night he declared that he would consider any more ques- uons on the subject as insults and would answer no more inquirie: Falling Log Kills a Passenger. WHATCOM, Wash., July 19.—At Blaine last evening, while the ferry-boat *con- taining six persons was passing a pile- driver in the river, a log which was being hoisted_broke loose and fell across the boat. J. F. Douglas, whose real name is said to be C. S. Sawyer, and whose home is in Eureka, Cal., was struck and killed. The /other five persons ‘were ‘thrown into the water, but were rescued. WOMAN WANTS WIDOW'S SHARE Suit Against a Big Es- tate in Shasta County Begins. Special Dispatch to The Call. 3 REDDING, July 19.—Papers were filed in the Superior Court of Shasta County to-day in what promises to be.the most sensational and hardly fought will contest case ever brought into the courts in Northern California. It is a case in which a woman who claims to have been the wife by oral contract of a wealthy merchant contests a will made by him prior to the contract marriage and asks for a widow’s share of the large estate. ‘When W. L. Smith died on the last day of May this year he left an estate valued at 3120,000. He was the principal stock- holder im the McCormick Saeltzer Com- pany, a large mercantile corporation of this city, and besides owned considerable property and had cash in bank. For several years previous to his death his relations with Mrs. Maggie McKin- ney, a widow of 45 years, were generally known, and at the ‘time of his death it was believed that if he had made a will she would be provided for. A few days after the funeral a will was found, dated January 13, 18 By _the terms of the will Smith's sister, Mrs. Sarah Bacon, was made sole beneficiary and provision was made that in case of her death before his her daughter, now Mrs. Mae Helene Boggs*would be the sole beneficiary. Mrs. Bacon died, and Mrs. Boggs was considered sole legatee. Mrs. McKinney stated on the day of the funeral of Smith .that she had evidence that would prove she had rights above these of Mrs. Boggs and she is now be- ginning to prepare the way to prove those rights. Smith spent most of his time in Mrs. McKinney’s company. She nursed him in sickness, cooked for him in health and to all appearances was a wife in every way. During his last illness she was unable to attend him, he being at the home of his niece. After the will was found and Mrs. Mc- Kinney was not mentioned she immedi- ately took action to contest. She employ- ed Braynard and Perry of this city and D. M. Delmas of San Francisco and the proceeding to-day is the beginning of the legal fight. Mrs. Boggs has applied to the court to be allowed to probate the will. PITTSBURG, July, 19.—The United States Steel Corporation has accepted the offer of the citizens' committee of McKeesport and will tuild its $10,000,000 tube plant in that city. ADVERTISEMENTS.

BANDIT STOPS A PLUCKY GIRL Fair Youngfi Mail-Carrier Held Up in Trinity County. REDDING, July 19.—Miss Eugenia Wil- son, the pretty fourteen-year-old daughter of J. W. Wilson of Lewiston, Trinity County, was held up at 6 o’clock this even- ing by a stranger on foot as she was car- rying the mail on horseback between Lewiston and Lowden’s ranch station, a @istance of four miles. Whether the high- wayman’s Intention was Tobbery of the mails or an attack on the girl is undeter- mined. Miss Wilson had covered about half the route on the mountain, when a rougih looking man of heavy build stepped from one side and grasped her horse’s bridle. He then pulled the girl and the mail sacks from the horse and threw the girl on the ground. She struggled pluckily and screamed loudly for help. The highwayman was attempting to drive off her horse, but the faithful ani- mal would not leave its mistress. Just then two men appeared on the road a quarter of a mile away. The robber, or assailant, fled into the brush. When the girl told her story a deter- mined search was made in all directions. At a late hour the man had not been taken. Members of the community say quietly but firmly over the telephone to Redding that he will never hold up an- other zirl if he is caught to-night. Woodmen of the World at Cripple Creek.
