Bluefackets from the navy linked arms with merchantment of all nations, and although in instances the affection was somewhat maudlin and in cases boisterous, it was peace and good will from North Beach to Brannan street. A few of the saflor oelebrants worked up friendly fighis and some of them tum- bled into the bay, but between the police and the ever alert boatman little harm came from these discords in the day's barmony. The steamship Queen and other vessels slong the line of docks were decorated with fir boughs. This was the only kind of @ecoration in evidence, and some of the foreign safling vessels followed the Queen’s example and lashed eVergreens 1o their mastheads.

Japanese Politicians to Compromise, NEW YORK, Dec. 25.—Conferences be- tween the Japanese political parties have commenced, says the Tokio correspond- ent of the Times in a dispatch via Lon- don. The correspondent says a compro- mise on the basls of the abandonment of the land tax, the funds for the naval in- crease being derived from other sources, is not unlikely. o Of 106 allens who became naturalized British subjects last month 62° hailed from Russia. fresh LEAVES HI WET CLOTHES BERIND Christmas Eve Celebrant, Takes a Tumble in the Bay. Then He Climbs Into a Boat, Undresses Himself and Disappears. The water-soaked clothing of a we! dressed man was found yesterday by Boatman John Gately in the bow of one of his Whitehall boats lying alongside the the Vallejo-street launch landing. In pockets were drink checks issued by s eral Market-street saloons; four hal dollar pieces and a commutation ticket the name on which was rendered almost illegible by water. The ticket was one of the regular monthly cards available be- tweeen San Francisco and Oakland, Ala- meda and Berkeley. The owner's name had been written in pencil on the front of the ticket and his address on the back. Of the address all that was legible was the words “Lake Shere.” The first initial of the name was “H.” The middle initial had been com- pletely obliterated by the water, but tha name itself, although badly blurred, ap- peared to be “Sharp.” The clothing consisted of a brown over- coat, fairly long, of heavy material and In good condition; a blue serge suit and a pair of patent leather shoes. In the pockets of the coat were two handker- chiefs, one silk and the other cotton, a cuff and a white laundered tle. The owner had evidently jumped or fallen into the water and later discarded his ap- parel, placing it carefylly in the White« hall boat, and disappeared. A newspaper launch leaves Vallejo stréet between 3 and 4 o'clock every morning and it frequently happens that people living across the bay, having missed the last boat, avail themselves of this early morning launch to reach tha other side. It is possible that the owner of the wet clothing may have gone to the Vallejo- street wharf In search of the newspaper launch. Being Christmas eve he may have been not too steady on his legs. If he fell into the water he was sober enough to climb out again without as- sistance. The drowsiness that follows submersion, combined with the possibia overindulgence in seasonable potations, may have confused the night wanderer's ideas as to locality and the disrobing might have been done under the impres- sion that he had reached his bedroom. That he undressed is evident. Whers he then betook himself the police are try- Ing to find out. Wherever he went, he appears to have taken with him his shirt, underwear, stockings and hat. New Mexican Coasting Line. SAN DIEGO, Dec. 25.—According to the Echo de la Fontesa, published at Ense- nada, Lower California, the Mexican Sec- retary of Communications and Public ‘Works has given authority for the estab- lishment of a new ship service between the ports of Guaymas, Topolobampo, La Paz and San Jose del Cabel and the ports of the United States situated on the Pa- cific Ocean. 1 had been troubled a year, off and on, with constipation, biliousness and sick headaches. One day a friend asked me what the trouble was. When I told him he recommended Ripans Tabules. That evening | got a box, and after the second box I began to feel so much relief that I kept on with them. I have Ripans Tabules always in the house now and carry a package of them in my pocket. At Druggists’. The Five-Cent packet is enough for an ordinary occasion. The family bottle, 60 cents, contains a supply for a year.
