The complaints were sworn to before Police Judge Cabaniss by Mrs. -Rachel Stone on the first ! charge ana by Strathmann’s wite, Jo- sephine, on the second. Secretary White of the California Soclety f the Prevention of Cruelty to Children is looking after Mrs. Strathmann’s in terests. Strathmann at one time had a sa loon on Beale street and later was a partner with his wife’s brother, Gert Schomaker, at 600 O'Farrell street, in the grocery and saloon business. He s0l1d his half interest to his brother-in law on June §, but his wife claim that he still retains his half interest. She also asserts that her husband h transferred his right to property he owns In this city to his brother-in-law with the object of preventing her from enjoying any benefit from it. Mrs. Strathmann says that ever her marriage her husband has supported her properly and has ted her craelly. Just before the since not tre birth of her baby, now two months old, he refused to call in a physician and she had to hire a wagoh to take her to the City and County Hospital, where her baby was born. A week ago last Friday he gave her 50 cents and she said that was the only money she had received from him for over a month e had been compelled to sell part of the furniture for food. She went to the house of a friend at Hunters Point for help in her desti- tute condition. On Friday night thmann called there and, she al- lcges, attacked her viciously. He . d and beat her and when Mrs. | Stone interfered to protect her she | was also beaten. In his blind fury he uck the baby on the head and near- killed it. It was after attacking his wife that he was arrested on Na- toma -street for being drunk. ~ When Secretary White called upon Strathmann after his wife had put her case in his hands Strathmann boast- gly told White that he was heir to large estate in Germany He de- clined to support his wife and babe. —_—— MEMBER OF FAMILY FOR TWENTY-NINE YEARS ly a Answer (o Russian Contest of Korn- { feld’s Will Explains Why Annie Smith Was Left $60,000.

Gushers of both the fluid | and the vapor have been coming up | the wells in different localities of | the southern portion of this| State. It is reportéd from the Coalinga ofl flields that a few days ago a stream of oil suddenly burst 100 feet in air from a well shaft, covering the der- ricks with the fluid. The strike was made at a depth of 1639 feet and is expected to yield 1000 barrels a day. Another gusher is reported in the oil fields of the Watsonville Oil Com- pany at Sargent’s ranch, Santa Clara County. When the oil stratum was perforated by the drill the tremendous pressure forced the geyser of oil high | toward the top of the derrick. | The Santa Monica Times, speaking of its section of Santa Barbara County, | sa | “The Union Sugar Company will be- | gin drilling for oil on its premises in the vicinity of the peninsula that ex- | the lake dried up. Work on the rig is under way. Mr. Tolbutt will have charge of the drill. “The Western Union Company’s test well is down 3800 feet and the pump is to be applied to-day. The oil is 35 degrees or better and exists in great quantity. This is by far the deepest well In California. “The Southern Pacific Company has let a contract to Mr. Stell to go down another 1000 feet or until oil is reached. The well is now 2001 feet deep and has a strong flow of gas. The opinion pre- A Wt 5 | vails among oil men that a fine well | will be got. | “The Union Oil Company is putting | in a new six-inch pipe line between Graciosa and Harris station. The pres- ent four-inch pipe is inadequate to handle the output of its Santa Maria wells.” GREAT FLOW OF GAS. An enormous flow of natural gas has been struck in Ventura at the plant of the Ventura Light and Power Com- pany, which yields 15000 feet a day.| The Independent says of the new gusher: | “The driller has been at work for sev- eral days on the fifth well, and Thurs-i day at a depth of about 125 feet struck | the gas. The new well is the best pro- | ducer in the field, ylelding about 15,000 | feet of gas per day. As the company has already on hand a surplus of 10,000 feet it is now certain that enough can| be obtained to supply Oxnard and in-| termediate points. Material for piping the gas to Oxnard and supplying that town has already been ordered, and as | soon it arrives men will be set to work extending the mains. It is possi- ble that with the development of the wells, the supply being considered in- exhaustible, gas will be piped to Nord- hoff, Saticoy and Santa Paula. The natural gas is giving general satisfac- tion in Ventura. It is found cheaper than wood for fuel and glves intense heat for all purposes. Several hundred residences are now equipped with gas ranges and heaters.” | As an increase In the outlet for oil heavy shipments are being made from is State to the Hawalian Islands, ere the fluid is used for fuel on the large plantations.

Mr. Butler, the purchaser, is a well-known capitalist of San Francisco and is president of the Dabney Oil Company and the Califor- nia and Oriental Steamship Company, and is also well known in mining and A new company will shortly be incorporated, to be known as the West Tonopah Min- ing Company, with a capital of $1,000,- 000, and active development of the | mines will be pushed. The present work on the claims consists of a s xty-foot shaft, and from this float assaying from | $80 to $1400 per ton has ‘been taken. The general impression of the camp is that these claims are among the best in Tonopah, and lying as they do in the | highly mineralized defined zone they should prove large producers. While the company's plans are not yet defi- nitely determined, it has been prac- tically decided that development will| | be on a large scale and that the most | modern machinery will be introduced in working the mine. IMPORTANT DECISION. The United States Supreme Court has just handed down a decision that is bf great importance to miners and mine owners and will possibly forever settle a question that has long been open and one that has brought about many lawsuits. The Federal court decides that the j owner of a mine cannot run a tunnel through an adjoining mine to reach his own property without the consent of the owners of the adjoining claim. This case was taken up from Mon- tana to the Supreme Court. It was the suit of the $t. Louis Mining and Mill- ing Company against the Montana Mining Company. The decision affirms the opinion of the Circuit Court of Appeals and makes it plain that a company cannot work its own property through the claim of | another without its consent. In many instances this is being done. A company owning a large property de- velops that property through a tunnel started on the claim of another ad- joining the company's mine. There have been many lawsuits as a result, but now that the case has finally been decided there may be an end to the trouble in that direction. The Angels Echo says that work is going on in the famous old Utica mine. That journal continues: “Super- intendent Shinn had doubts as to the mine being worked out, and to satisfy himself he caused a drift to be run from level 2 of the South Stickle mine to and beneath the Utica underground works. “Here, at a point 200 feet below the present bottom of the Utica north shaft, the lode of the Utica has again | been discovered, being over thirty feet in width and tending to increase in width as it descends into the earth. The ore is of the same character as that found in the upper levels of the old works and is equally valuable. “The discovery demonstrates the fact that the Utica is far from being worked out and that it is as good a mine as it ever has been in the past. “Owing to the bad condition of the ground the Utica lode will be mined by way of the lower levels of the South Stickle, from which point the discovery drift has been run.” It is reported that the Bluestone cop- per mines at Yerington have been sold to Captain J. R. de Lamar for $125,000. | The Mount Vernon mine at the topi of the divide between Greenhorn and Cherry creeks, south of Yreka, is said to continue showing good quartz in large quantity. CONCERNING OIL PROSPECTS. The Bakersfield Californian says of the ert returned from the East, says that his company is going to proceed to drill | on its well on 34-12-21 in East Sunset. It is also preparing the ground for a reservoir.

A quarter | se€tion on section 8 adjoining this last | has been secured by a company of | Wisconsin capitalists, who are expect- ed to undertake some development | work. These properties are within two | miles of the oil spring.” 1 The Sonora Independent, speaking of | the Sell mine in Tuolumne County, re- ports: “We were shown Monday an exceed- | ingly handsome specimen of gold and quartz all sprinkled over with a tellu- ride of goid. At a rough guess there was probably $200 in the rock, besides a small sack containing more, but not so rich, that was found at the same | time. We are pleased that Divoll & | Fulcher are getting on to theyyellow metal again. They deserve all they ! get for their perseverance in their con- | tinual development of the mine. The present find may result in a good-sized pocket, for when a vein throws out such golden ore as we have seen the end is not yet." The following item is taken from the Jackson Ledger: “At the Wide Awake mine, which is in Rallroad Flat mining district, Cala- veras County, a peculiar state of affairs is presented. The ore assays $10 and $11 per ton, but several milling tests have proved unavailing in saving more than from G0 cents to $1 per ton. The tail- ings show gold value of about $10. It any methqd can be devised to save a fair percentage of the gold the prop- erty may be made a remunerative one.

Is an ordeal which all women approach with milling character. George I. Wright has had an expert from San Francisco visit the mine recently, an experienced assayer and mineralogist, who after a thorough examination gave it as his opinion that the ore might be treated by the cyanide process. The manage- ment has decided to fix up a small plant to test this treatment. An as- sessment of one cent per share has been levied for this purpose. The ore differs materially in character from qther gold ores in that vicinity. There is little doubt some method can be devised to recover the gold. The problem may take a little time and involve comsid- erable experimenting to solve.” ——————— Senator Ankeny understands the In- dian language perfectly and acted as interpreter the other day at Washin- ton when a group of Yakima Indians were presented to the President at the ‘White House. indescribable fear, for nothing compares with BECOMING A MOTHER =~ of the suffering and danger in store for ber, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a <hadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off.
