Tne Latest and Biggest Yarn
sbout Him.
A. Washington correspondent tells
this pleasant yarn:
Senator Jones of Nevada is one of
your self-made men. tHe commenced
life poor. But'a year old when his pa-. °
rents came from Herefordshire, England, he bas made his way to the top
by dint of hard work and the exercise
of considerable shrewdness. Like
Senator Sanders of Montana, who
made his first ten-strike out of a claim
he staked out in a graveyard, Senator
Jones’ first streak of luck was purely
accidental, as pearly all streaks of luck
are.
,The story goes that when Jones was
in California he stumbled ‘across his
pile in the following remarkable.manner: He lived in a certain county that
Bret Harte made famous—Tuolumne,
the veracious chioniclers assert—and
during the gold excitement. kept a
small grocery store. He did a thriving
trade; prices were high in those days
in Oulifornia, and after a few years
Jories had amassed a few thousand
dollars. Up the mountain a piece
lived a solitary miner. He was poor,
had the reputation of being shiftless,
but despite the report was always
busy.
One day he called on Jones.
“Say, Jones, I think I’ve got a bonanza in that claim of mine,” said the
poor miner.
Jones smiled, He had heard these
stories before. He knew how great
expectations were frequently never
realized, Time, labor-and money
were usnally wasted on. what looked
like something rich, bat that developed into snares,so Jones merely smiled.
“It’s a big thing,” persisted the
visitor, and he proceeded to explain
what the claim was und his. reasons
for being so sanguine. After several
hours’ talk the miner asked for an advance of $1,000 with which to buy
tools and food. Jones’ demurred. A
thousand dollars was a big enongli
sum, saved, as it had been, with much
trouble and labor: But, after all,
$1,000 cut no figure in comparison
with the profits of a good mine.
Jones finally told the miner he would
see what could he done,
After nightfall, when the Chinamen
tuken their departure, Mr. Jones allowed the embers of his fire to die out,
When satisfied no one was about he
scraped away. the ashes, raised the
stone on which the fire was built and
weighed out the neceesary gold dust
to make the $1,000. These litile
precautions were always taken in that
‘region, where even rabbers were more
plentiful than fortunes.
The tools were bought, Jones lending the money aud-the miner prominine. For months the solitary miner
labored, but he did not atrike the lead.
He grew wan ard hollow-eyéed, and
occasionallly dropped in to see Jones.
The latter had by this time abandon‘ed-all hope of ever seeing his” money
again, : :
“There’s no gold up there,’ he
would inform the exhausted miner.
‘*Yes there is,’’ insisted the later,
“if Lcould only strike it.’’
Affairs were now becoming desperate with the hopeful but penniless
man. One day he called on Jones,
and, and after coughing apologetically,
asked for some meul and bacon. He
knew he would be successful eventually with his search, but provisions
were out. Jones smiled again.
“T's like throwing it in ‘a rat-hole,’”’
a side of buconand gathered up a
sack of cornmeal tor his luckless partner. For four months nothing was
heard of the old fellow, and Jones presumed he had either gone away or died
at bis post up the gulch. Both suppositions were erroneous. The miner
dashed into the store, one day, irradiated with joy. He had really struck
hisbonanza. The mine was gold for
$3,000,000, and, faithful to his promise,
the honest miner gave Jones one-third
froth that tine.

A GOOD PLATFORM.
A Full Account of Wednesday’s
Proceedings in the Republican ‘State Convention.
Sacramento, Aug. 183—The followingis a brief summary of the Evening
Bee’s report of today's proceedings in
the State convention : '
When Chairman Campbell called
the body to order at 10 o’clock this
mo-aing the Assembly Chamber. was
jammed in every part, the galleries
and lobbies being thronged with
spectators.
The chairman announced that the
first thing in order was the report of
the committee on credentials.’ The
report.was presented and showed 677
delegates to be present. The report
was adopted without the roll being
called, there being no contest.
Next in order was the reportcf the
committee on permanent organization
and order of business, The report
named the temporary officers as the
permanent officers of the convention
and continued the order of business.
Senutor Williams said he found no
fault with the report of the committee
except that the executive committee
should consist of 21 members—15 from
San Francisco and 6 from the country. He madea motion to that effect.
Davis of Alameda moved to amend by
having 12 from San Francisco and 9
from the interior. The amendment
prevailed by a vote of at least three to
one, and the country delegates cheered
loudly over the victory won from San
Francisco,
Metcalf of Alameda read the report
of the commitiee on platform and
resolutions. ll telling points were
enthusiastically cheered, and at every
mention of Blaine’s name the delegates fairly went wild.
THE PLATFORM’S SUBSTANCE.
The platform as adopted reviews
the history of the Kepublican party
which hag in the face of the most persistent and unscrupulous opposition
successfully conducted the government
of the nation for nearly thirty years,
performing deeds of statesmanship and
military achievements worthy tolive
forever upon the brightest pages of
bistory. It has contributed to the
country statesmen such as Lincoln,
Seward, Chase, Sumner, Garfield, Logan, ConkI'ng and Blaine, and such
soldiers as Grant, Sheridan, Sherman
and Thomas.
The platform urges a free ballot, reaffirms the principles announced in
the Republican national convention
platform of 1888, renews former declarations in favor of the most rigid exclusion of Chinese from this country,
and urges that restriction be made
permanent. It urges that it is the duty
of the federal government by adequate
appropriations to straighten and deepen the channels of California’s rivers,
approves legislation already enacted
for the reclamation of our arid lands,
and urges euch ‘further legislation as
may be: necessary to fully accomplish
that purpose. It declares unchanged
belief in free public schools as a necessity to free government. The
course pursued by Speaker Reed is endoreed. It commends the administration of President Harrison and
marks with approval the manner ip
which Blaine managed the Behring
Sea difficulty with England.
It pledges the convention’s nominees to give support to the enforcemeat of the eight-hour law, declares
that an anoual State tax of fifty cents .
oneach one hundred dollars’ worth of
assessable property is enfficient in
place of the unprecedented rate of
seventy-two cents fixed by the Democratic party, arraignet he Democratic
party for the waste and extravagance
shown: by the last Legislature, applauds the Republicans of Congress

He Claims to Have Robbed a Nevada City Bank of
"$20,000,
oe
The following story is taken from
the Melbourne Argus of recent date:
The extraordinary career of a man
named F. P. Williams has been
brought tolight in a curious manner,
and the circumstances, when related,
will recall to the memory of many old
residents of Geelong and Ballarat the
facts ofa long forgotten and extensive
robbery committed at the gold-fields’
city when it wus still in its infancy,
and while the events of the Eureka
Stockade were but of recent occurrence. -It appears that Williams,
who latterly-has been a hotel-keeper
of Auckland, New-Zealand, divulged
some of the details of his misspent life
while under the influence of drink,
and afterward,-onbeing interviewed
by the police, volunteered a lengthy
statement, implicating himself in
numerous audacious embezz!ements
committed in England, America, and
the colony of Victoria.
A SLICK STEAL.
In the course of his recital he narrated the circum’tances under which
he had robbed Mr. Joshua Vines, of
this town, of a sum of £2,000, while
employed. by that gentleman in aconfidential capacity at Ballarat in the
early part of 1855. The authorities at
Auckland communicated with the
police here to ascertain if such a robberyhad occurred, and it was then
found, on referring to official records,
that the robbery had actually occurred
in the manner described by Williams.
Mr. Vines, who isthe principal partner in the well-known stage-coach
proprietary of Vines and McPhee, was
carrying on the business of gold
broker inthe year named. He met
Williams atBallarat, and first became acquainted with him through
purchasing gold from him. On one
occasion Mr. Vines gave him a £10
note in mistake for £1, and Williams
shortly afterward returned it. This
act of honesty on his part impressed
Mr. Vines so much that he afterward
gave him an engagement in connection with hig business as gold broker.
However, though Williams could
afford to be honest with a few pounds,
he entertained no ecruples about appropriating thousands. One Saturday
afternoon Mr. Vines was taking a bay
containing £2,000 to the bank when
he heard.that a coach which he had
running between Ballarat and Creswick had knocked down a woman and
seriously injured her. In his anxiety
to ascertain the nature of the accident
Mr. Vines altered his original intentien, and handsud over the bag andthe
money to the care of his virtuous
clerk. ~~ .
TOOK FRENCH LEAVE.
The latter left with the intention of
depositing the money inthe bank, but
never reached the institution, and Mr.
Vinesbeard nothing more of tie’
whereabouts of his clerk orhis money
until he was communicated with’ by
the police. A large reward was offered at the time for Williams’ apprehengion, but it was always thought
that he had gone to England or the
United States. According to his own
statement, Williams must have commenced his career of roguery at a very
early age. He is now about 64 yeurs
old, but says that he first went astray
in 1832. In that year he was employed as junior collector for Coates, Heald
. & Co., cotton munnfacturers, of Manchester, and, having a desire to travel,
cleared out with £500 belonging to his
employers. He made his way to New
Orleans, in America, and after a time
secured a position as clerk in the office
of a merchant named Massey. He
gained the confidence of his employer,
and in return absconded with $5000.
He returned to England, and alleges
that he joined the Sixteenth Lancers.
The new occupation proved irksome,

BOODLED AT NEVADA CITY.
Hisold luck continued, and he must
farthermore have been an accomplishéd swindler, as he secured ‘4 position
as manager of a bank in Nevada City.
“After a short period he retired from’
this post and took with him $20,000
from the funds of the bank. He did
not remain in the States longer than
ittook him to reach the seaboard, and
he returned to his native city of Man-}
chester.-.Although there were numerous rewards offered for his arrest, he
never altered his name, and after
spending some time in England -he
proceeded in search of new fielda for.
his enterprise. He visited Cape
Colony at one stage of his career and
started farming, but was obliged to
leave his homestead owing to the outbreak of the Kaffirwar. After this he
paid another visit to America, and
then came to Ballarat, where he committed the robberyon Mr. Vines. It
is not likely that Mr. Vines will take
any steps to bring him back. :

Her “Version of the Suit Against
Capitalist Lones of This
City.
. S. F. Examiner of Tuerday,. :
Mrs. Louisa Marion Reeves,-a notice
of whose suit for breach of promise
against Henry A. es Was published
in Sunday’s Examinér, fell and broke
her wrist on Sunday. She wason her
wav tu correct an erroneous statement
in & newspaper in regard to the. suit
when the accident occurred, and: the
damage she suffers from her injury will
be added to the $50,000 she sues for, on
the ground that if Lones.had married
her as he promised she would not have
sued, consequently there would have
been no publication, no error could
nave been made, she would not have
gone down town to correct the error
and the banana peel that lay in ambush for her would have been cheated
ofits prey. So it is all Lones’ faultand
he must pay for it, : '
To an Examiner, reporter Mrs.
Reeves confided her story of a ’49r’s
duplicity and a woman’s confiding
patience, #
Tueyw were cousins, it seems, in
Knoxville, Tenn., in the days before
there was any Montgomery street for
the water to come up to. When the
light-hearted Harry, Alexander Lones
quit tossing hay and tried his hand at
argonauting he left her there to wait
for Lim,
BACK TO THE OLD HOME.
Being an argopaut proved a lucrative
j>b and ten years ago Cousin Harry returned to Knoxville and found her
widow, ‘With the memory of their
boy and girl affection about them, he
courted her-again, in regular Mrs.
Braddon style. To be sure, there wae
and had been another wife for twenty
years, but the pioneer, in his breezy
California way, didn’t mind that, He
said he would divorce her,
Su they became engaged, and when
he returned to Qalifornia he brought
her with bim,
She pressed him to._hurry up his di’
vorce and keep his compact with her.
Finally he confessed that his heart was
too tendex to divorce his wife,
“She te Ne delicate,” said the
argcnant; ‘it isn’t worth while getting
4 divorce. She will die ina little while
and all the trouble and expense will be
avoided,
“His wife knew he was to marry me
when she died,’? said Mrs. Reeves.
‘A good deal of the property was in
ter name, . She had a fine lot in Neva
da City and sie homesteaded it, Mr.
Lones put lots of improvements on i:
—aspent lots of money—and when she
finally went under, three yeurs ayo,
sho millad it oll away te lomraditive,

A SUDDEN PREJUDICE.
‘The pioneer somehow " blamed hir
cousin and fiancee for his wife’s post

$150,000 of his own and Mrs. Reever
still had hopes, For several years Mr
Lones continued this engagement.
Once he gave her a box of handkerchiefs. Butthe time canie when the
lover, now nearly 70 years old, found
that there existed within him a prejudice againgt cousanguineous marriages
His prejudices didn’t count us far ar

but never, she says, will she forgive
bim for the other chances be has made
her lose by keeping her waiting for
him. A $200,000 Englishman named
Murry is one of her moet poignant
memories.
(Mr. Lones does not‘ seem to mai.
fest the slightest alsrm as to the eutcome of this :emarkable proceeding,
und many persons here who are acquainted with the facts do not believe
it will ever come 6 trial. Mrs. Reever
and ber husband came out here with
Lones the last time he returned from
Nashville and made their home at this
city for several months. Reeves work:
ed in Seaman’s carriage factory, but is
now supposed to reside in England.
Whether the pair were divorced since
coming to California is not known,
Mrs, Reeves, who is estimated to be between fifty-five and sixty years of age,
lived with Mr. and Mss. Lones for
awhile, and her relations with the latter are said to have been so unpleasant
as to precipitate her departure. If the
cave should by any possibility come to
trialitis expected that the testimony
offered by Mr. Lones will be “rich,
rare and racy,’’ and that some of the
must sensutional of it will be certain
