There is no staking of claims here, as all the prop erty is held under title.

The mint, by the way. coined $26,000,000 in geld, but the din. covery of the California field and thd war broke up minlne here except in si small way and the mint was abandoned.

Those on. erauuns are turned over to State func tionaries, by whom alone, or under u ho3e direction, they are to be carried on Discussing the allegation that the law was an inspection law, Justice Shiras reviewed the decisions of the court upon State inspection statutes to regu late otner articles and the opinion mn. eludes: In the lie-ht of those riwa tdo ot of South Carolina of January 2, 1895, must, as to those of its provisions which affect the plaintiffs in the pres ent suits, stand condemned. It is not an inspection law Ttio nm. hlbition of the importation of the wines and liquors of other States by citizens of South Carolina for their own use. Is made absolute, and does not depend on the purity or impuritv of the rtir-ie Only the -State functionaries are per mitted to import Into the State, and thus citizens who wish to use foreisrn wines and liquors, are deprived of the exercise of their own Judgment and taste, in tne selection of commodities. To empower a State chemist to pass upon what the law calls the 'alcoholic purity' of such importations by chem ical analysis, can scarcely come wimln any definition of a reasonable inspec tion law. "It is not a law purporting to forbid the importation, manutactuie. sale and use of intoxicating liquors, as articles detrimental to the welfare of the State and to the health of the inhabitants, and hence, it is not within the scope and operation of the act of Congress of Augrurt. 1S90. That law was not in tended to confer upon any State the power to discriminate injuriously against the products of other Spates in articles, whose manufacture and use aie not rorbidden, and which are. there fore, the subjects of legitimate com merce. The question whether a given state law Is a lawful exercise of the po lice power Is still open, and must re main open, to this court. Such a law may forbid entirely the manufacture J.nd sale of intoxicating liquors and be i-aliu. Or it may provide equal regula tions for the inspection and sale of all lomestic and imported liquors and be valid. But the State under the con gressional legislation referred to, es .ablishes a system which, in effect! dis criminates between inter-State and do- .jiffiic commerce in commodities tn make and use which are admitted to ue lawful. "This phase of the sublect Is and interesting but we do not think It necessary for us to consider it. It is efficient for the present cases tn hniri is we do. that when a State recognizes the manufacture, sale and use of into-r. icating liquors as lawful, it cannot dis- nminate against the brimrlntr of mch articles in, and importing them from j win oiaies; tnat such legislation is ii'ia as a ninarance tn HOTELS AT INAUGURATION. .

Gave in to Four Cops, Though She Had a Dirk as Well as a Hatpin. New York Sun, 18th. To a large, if not admiring, circle of police, Bridget Harris, of 433 Wash ington street, is known as "the man eater." She doesn't really devour hu man beings, but she does carve them up with knives or hatpins, for which eccentricity she has dene "a pair of sixes, as she would term two terms or six months each on the island, and three State prison terms of one. two and three years respectively. Bridget wandered on Saturday into Youman's coal office at Washington and Canal streets and said that she wanted a quarter. This didn't surprise any one. single glance at Bridget would sus- ' gest to the dullest mind that she was the sort of person that would be likely to want a quarter.

Ifwill cost a dollar to get supper at ' consider the money in the light of a the inaugural ball in addition to $5 that must be paid by everybody except President McKinley and Vice Presi dent Hobart and their ladies, for a ticket of admission. The contract for furnishing the supper has, as known, been given to a Philadelphia caterer, Carl G. Essner, who pays the Inaugu ral committee a. per centage of his gross receipts. This, as well as the re ceipts from the sale of the ball tickets, will be devoted to the payment of ex penses of the inauguration. A guarantee fund of $50,000 is sub scribed by the citizens of Washington. This is done in order that all bills for the preparation for inaugural day may be met promptly. Then the receipts of the ball are divided among the sub scribers to the guarantee fund, as far. as they will go. Four years ago the expenses of the inauguration were about $36,000, which was ail covered by the receipts at tne ball, and a little-over was given to the charities of this city. This year the ar rangements are on a larger scale, and it is intended to expend about $o0,000. A temporary kitchen will be built in the j.orm of a "lean-to" in the rear of the pension office. Thirty cooks and 100 waiters will be brought from Phila delphia on inauguration day. with all the china, silverware, linen, kitchen utensils and the food prepared as far as possible in advance. The caterer has arranged for a special train over the Pennsylvania Railroad. His plans and prepai aliens are all un der supervision of the committee on j banquet, of which Gen. George B. Wll. ' Hams, of this city, is t he chaii man. and their estimate requires him to furnish . 10,0t0 assorted Fandwiches, 8 000 chicken cutlets, 7,000 sweetbread patties, 300 gallons of consomme soup, 300 gal'.ons of terrapin soup, 500 gallons of chicken ; salad, iOO gallons of crab salad, 200 gal lons of lobster salac, i50 hams. 8.000 oysters, 200 tongues, ISO boned turkeys. l.isOO quarts ( f ice cream. 100 gallons of Roman punch. 150 pounds cf cakes, 100 pounds of game patties and 200 gallons I of coffee.

The two men grappled Bridget, who squirmed away from them, and. with her left hand, drew a long, thin hat pin. Her right hand was thrust under her bodice. Now, a hatpin, well direct ed, may mean the loss of an eye or per haps sudden death from a pierced brain. Besides, no man might know what Bridget held in her right hand. Messengers were tent forth for more aid, and three other policemen respond ed, on seeing them. Bridget drew out from her bodice a dirk with an eight- inch blade, and threw it upon the floor in tokan of surrender. "Cowards yez are." she observed scornfully : "an' I cud lick the lot av yez but I won't," she added in a burst of magnanimity. This was taken into account In her favor when she was arranged in Jef ferson market Court yesterday. Magis trate Flammer sentenced her to six months tn the island. "A sixer, is it?" said Bridget airily. burc, 1 can do that on me head. ENGINES, BOILERS; SAW MILLS, T i PRESSES, PULLEYS, SHAF riNG, HANGERS, COUPLINGS,! CASTINGS OF ALL KINDS. FIRE BRICK.

Gem Valued at $1,400 "Feathered" Dropping on a Marble Floor in Hoffman House. New York World, 18th. A diamond weighing carats and valued at 1,400 was destroyed -.alii uay aiternoon at tne nortman House. ihe gem was the property ol J. .r Roche, a diamond dealer. Mr. Roche was exhibiting thediamond to Capt. Peacock, the clerk of the hot-1, and several other friends. Through some m.'shap the diamond slipped out of a eneet or suit white paper and feii on the marble flooring. It struck on iho girdle and the shock sent "feathers' through it. thus rendering it unsalable. While diamonds are known to be the hardest of gems, they are liable to be destroyed through shock. Mr. Roche say that silvers, or feathers, will be sent through a diamond should it fall and strike on its outside centre circular girdle. According to him. a diamond may fall 999 times out of 1,000 without hitting its girdle. "I am not superstitious." he remark ed, ' but a few days ago I began wear tng for the hrst time an opal pin. My theatrical, political and sporting rrienas warned me against wearing the opal. Well, all that I can say is that I am out 1,400 unless a lapidary can save me part of the big stone."
