There is also an immense body of iron ore near Bee Gum, in this county, that is now attracting a good deal of atten- tion. It is just over the line in Tehama Coun- ty and is owned by James Hesslewood of Red Bluff, who has taken steps to develop it. He filed twenty-two mining locations and has a ledge 400 feet across, with more than 500,000 tons of ore in sight. In fact, there is a solid body of ore more than two miles long. It is about forty-seven miles southwest of Redding. DREDGERS AND OTHERS. Concerning the gold dredging operations | near Folsom, the Pacific Coast' Miner says: The holdings of the dredging companies who | | are prospecting and dredging in the vicinity of Folsom are very extensive and cover nearly all the mineral lands on both sides of the Ameri- | can River. Nearly, if not all of the claims were bought outright, it is said, by R. G. Han- ford, who is said to be backed by the Armoure pecting near Folsom are known as the Folsom Development Company, the Syndicate Dredging Company and the Colorado-Pacific Gold Dredg- ing Company, all of which are managed by R. G. Hanford. About three miles southwest of Folsom & dredger is at work, and also one, on, the east bank of the river. In addition to this, two new_dredgers are being built at Milwau- kee that dre due on the dredger grounds next October. . The mew dredgers will be run by electric power, have five-foot buckets and will cost §70,000 apiece. Each will handle 3000 cubic rds of gravel daily. The company is also erecting a large machine =hop, stores, houses and blacksmith shops. Dealing with dredging operations near Oroville, Newton Booth Knox, in the Mining and Sclentific Press, writes: Upon a strip of land_nine miles long by two miles in width, bordering on and adjacent to the Feather River, twenty-one dredgers are working. about twelve companies, who own dredging Jand varying from 80 to S00 acres. The com- panies are all close corporations, and though {he official figures of working costs and profits are dificult. 1o obtain, it is well known that they yield their stockholders excellent divi- dends. For instance, one company's working expenses, including Jabor, repairs, power, in- terest on capital invésted, ‘depreciation of plant, cinking fund, etc., amounted 1o but 32 per cent of the bullion output, leaving the remaining 68 per cent clear profit. The total general aver- hee of the drillings of several of the largest companies” holdings, covering a period of sev- eral years, gives the value of the gravel be- tween 17 cents and 19 cents per cubic yard and average depth of 11 yards. As a dredger han- Qles from 1200 to 2000 cubic yards per day at a cost of from 5 cents to 8 cents—average of 6 cents—per cublc yard, it is evident that the returns in this work are considerable. In the carly days of California history Oroville dis- irict was extensively mined by first the white man and later by the Chinese. It is claimed that $82,000,000 bas been taken out within a radius of eight miles of the town of Oroville. The gravels were worked to water level and washed mostly in hand rockers. Pits and small shafts were sunk untll a rich paystreak was encountered, which was followed, - dritted out, holsted_to the surface and rocked. Water in- terfered greatly with this style of mining, and only the Tichest streaks could be worked. The gravels left made excellent dredging ground. The Shenandoah mine, near Plymouth, Amador County, is down 1000 feet in the south shaft and more than 500 feet in the north shaft. The two shafts are con- nected at the 500-foot level.

A3 GRIEVANCES | Many Unfortunates Dis- | | cover That Brown's \ in Town. | J. M. Brown, who registered at the Pal- ace Hotel and latér at the Occidental from Evanston, Ill., created & scene in | | the Market-street ticket office of the Southern Pacific Company yesterday aft- | ernoon, when he threatened to sue the | | corporation for delaying him on his trav- | els and otherwise disturbing his tendr of | mind. It later developed that his mind | was apparently affected and efforts were | made to pacify him. Brown arrived here three days ago and stopped over night at the Palace. The | first day there he entered a complaint | against the entire methods of manage- ment of the big hostelry and finally was encouraged to'move, which he did, tak- ng quarters at the Occidental. He also | | caused no end of annoyance to the clerks | of that establishment. | He went yesterday to the office of the | | | Transcontinental passenger bureau on New Montgomery street, to have an over- land ticket validated. It was discovered by the agent that his ‘ticket was im- properly signed and Brown was asked for | some means of identification. Apparently | laboring under the idea that he was be- ing unjustly treated he went around to the ticket office on Market street, where he remained for more than an hour loudly abusing everybody and threatening to sue | the company for damages, The actions of Brown were those’ of a man whose mind was unsettled. At- tempts to quiet him proved of no avail and the only way the clerks got rid of him was when the time for closing the office arrived. The unfortunate man bears the appearance of one in comfort- | able circumstances and he exhibited {large roll of bills at the ticket office yes- | terday. He claimed acquaintance with many | prominent men of Iliinols from the Gov- | ernor down, but telegraphic inquiry at | | Chicago and = Evanston last evening | brought the response that he is unknown | there and that his name is not in the di- rectories. ———— Monterey Will Be Total Wreck.

WILLIAMS died suddenly from an attack of heart failure at his resi- d.nce, 1019% Clay street, shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday morning. The death of Senator Willlams was most unexpected and was a great shock to his relatives and friends Senator Willlams took charge of Divi- sion No. 1 in the United States Internal Revenue office on May 1, his district em- bracing all that portion of the city north of Sacramento street. He attended to his duties in the office on Thursday until near the hour of closing, when he com- plained of what he believed to be an at- tack of Indigestion. He crossed the cor- ridor of the Appraiger’s building and en- tered the office of the Marine Hospital Service, where he asked the clerk for a spoonful of bicarbonate of soda to relieve what he believed to be acidity of the stomach. The surgeon in attendance entered the room at this time and after examining | Senator Willlams informed him that his afMiction was heart trouble, not indiges- tion. The doctor advised the Senator to g0 hemé and to bed and to send for his family physician. Acting upon the advice of the doctor, he went home, but did not retire until 8:30 o'clock in the evening, as he- stated that he was feeling much better. Shortly before midnight he awoke, again suffering severe pains, and the fam- ily physician, Dr. Davis, was immediately summoned, but all efforts to relieve the sufferer were vain and he soon passed away. The deceased was well known in politi- cal circles throughout the State. He was elected Senator in the Twenty-fourth Sen- atorial District last November and there- fore had three more years to serve.

The speed of both cars was about eight miles an hour. The first intimation the gripmen had that the switch was open was when car 1146 struck it and the two vehicles came together with a crash. ‘Windows crashed and passengers were pitched about. There were three occu- pants in the first car and four in the sec- ond. All escaped uninjured with the ex- ception of Mrs. Nolan, a dressmaker, who was seated in the forward end of the westbound car, where she was caught and crushed. It is hard to tell just how the accident happened. It is a rule that conductors must close the switch after they pass over it and the conductor on the car pre- ceding car No. 1146 says that he did so.

EXTREME PRIGES FOR OSCULATION Miss Marian Green Sells Kisses at Exorbit- ant Rates. Then It Develops Her Com- pensation Is Only Stage Money. Kisses from the red lips of Miss Marian Green come high, if the testimony of wit- nesses in Justice of the Peace Lawson's court yesterday are to be believed. It is of record there, as sworn tosby several men, that she placed a value of $100 on an osculatory salutation delivered to one M Doolan of Oakland, and for a similar ser- vice performed to Dr. William P. Hicks of this city she demanded $125. Mis: een is a tall, blonde beauty, and she looks as though her kisses might be worth considerable as such things go, but the above amounts are away above the prices since the days when Antony mad threw away a world for Cleopatra’s Kiss Since then the market has been bearish. The scene where these costly embraces were bestowed was in the rear room of a drugstore at Polk and McAllister streets. There during a night in the damp month of last January a merry party gathered. There were half a dozen men and Miss Green was the only one of her sex pres ent, but she made up in vivacity what she lacked in numerosity. The flowing bowl, filled with that fierce brand of boozeé that is obtainable only in Kansas or a drug- store, passed rapidly around, and under its inspiriting influence the one Doolan of Oakland aforesald concluded that life was not worth living unless he could kiss the fair Marian. She was coy. but finally agreed to permit his caress on the pay- ment of $10. Doolan didn't care about the price, but he lacked 5 cents of having any money at all with him, so he gave Miss Green a promissory note for $1% and took the kiss. Inspirited by Doolan’s example, Dr Hicks concluded that he, too, must taste of Miss Green's lips, but she had raised the ante for him.
