Jack Winters Confessed to the
Theft of Gold Bars.
Took the Officers to a Spot Where llo Hod
Wroiipiul SJSBO.OUO In tho liny mid
lllmaclf Kestoreri It to tliu
Superintendent.
San Francisco, Aug. 11. Jack Win
ters, who was arrested for tho EJclby
smelting works robbery, 1ms confessed
the crime and so far $130,000 worth of
bullion has been recovered from tho
bay where he had sunk it. Tor thrco
days the detectives had tried all sorts
of intimidation to mako Winters con
fess, but their threats apparently had
no effect upon him. Finally, ho asked
to see Superintendent llopp, of tho
works, who he said was tho only friend
ho had. In his conversation with
3topp, Winters' iiiauncrMndicntcd that
lie knew where the gold had been hid
den, llopp told him that they had a
strong case against him and that ho
would be sent to prison for 30 years.
Ho said: "You will be an old man
when you get out and it will do you
no good to hido the gold. Wo know
it is hidden in the water near tho
works and we will search every inch.
You may be sure that the gold will bo
found before you get out of prison."
Winters finally weakened and told
llopp that ho hnd taken tho gold nnd
would take him to tho spot where it
was hidden. The criminal, in company
with Superintendent llopp and a force
of detectives, left On a tug for
v-v Crockett. There they waited all night
for low tide. Winters pointed out
the place at tho end of tho railroad
wharf, behind the coal bunkers nt the
beginning of the Vallcjo ferry slip. At
that point at low tide tho mud is about
four feet deep covered by a foot of
water. When tho tug first reached
Crockett Winters pointed out tho
spot where he said he had thrown the
gold. Superintendent llopp marked
tho spot on tho wharf and the tug
steamed away to wait for low tide.
Then Winters himself got into tho
mud nnd wator up to his neck and for
an hour and a half groped for the
mising gold. Up to ten o'clock $110,
000 worth had been recovered. This
includes the four bars of lino gold.
Winters had put some of the bars in
bags. Ho said that one of the bags
had broken and some small bars had
dropped out. It is now only a, ques
tion of careful search to find the rest
of tho $280,000. Winters claims that
he did the job all alone. He says that
ho made 14 trips from the vault to the
whnrf from which ho dropped the
gold. Tho smelter officials, however,
arc positive that ho received help from
Rome one. The detectives think that
l his story that ho did it alone is cor-
- rect.
IRON MASTERS JUBILANT.
i
' Amalgamated Kmployon In Thrco JJIjr Steel
Mills Itofuso to Join In tho Strike
Ordered by Shaffer.
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 12. The iron
masters are claiming victory in the
great steel strike. They base their
claim upon the refusal of the Amal
gamated men at South Chicago, Joliet
and Bayview to obey the general
strike order of President Shaffer
and their success in maintaining oper
ations in other plants where if. was
anticipated that there would bo seri
ous trouble. Tho strike leaders meet
tho claims of victory with the asser
tion that their cause is making satis
factory progress and that thej' will
show themselves masters of the situa
tion before tho contest has progressed
much further. They do not conceal
their disappointment at the refusal
of their western brethren to join
with them in the strike, but none of
the leaders would discuss the defec
tion. ACCIDENT OR DESIGN?
A llollor That Boor Sympathizer Tried to
lllow Up n IlrltUh Transport at
Now OrlcuiiH.
New Orleans, Aug. 11. What is re
garded as an attempt of n Boer sym
pathizer to blow up a British trans
port occurred shortly after midnight
when a terrific explosion occurred nt
the stock landing whore tho Harrison
steamer Mechanician is moored. The
Meohananician is to carry mules to
South Africa. Most of the crew of
tho ship were asleep, but the explosion
brought them quickly from their
berths to the deck. An examination
showed a large dent on tho starboard
side of the ship. Two plates at the
water's edge had, been sprung and
considerable water was let into the
ship.

ENGLISH TATTOOING FAD.
Member or inc Arlatocrncy nml the
Clcrirj rnntnntlcally Marked
In Kniflnnd.
The tattooing crazo seems to bo
spreading in society circles, and thero
are few people whom one meets now
adays "nt the best houses who have
not some design indelibly marked
upon their skinsfl says tho London Ex
press. Tho idea that tho process of being
tattooed is a painful ono is quite er
roneous, for if it were it would never
have become so fashionable among
society dames as it has done.
As a matter of fact, you feel only a
slight prick now nnd ngain when you
are being tattooed that is to say,
provided tho artist bo a skillful
craftsman. During tho courao of a
chat nn artist said: "For obvious
reasons I cannot give you any names,
but my clients arc of all classes, in
cluding bishops I did a largo cross
crushing a dragon on tho arm of ono
whose name is a household word in
everybody's mouth members of the
aristocracy, Salvationists, royal dukes,
princes nud foreign nobility of all
countries.
"You would no doubt like to hear
about what I consider to havo been
my most remarkable achievement.
It was tho case of a lady who, having
no eyebrows, came to mo a short
while ago with tho somewhat remaric
ablo request that I should tattoo her
in such a way as to give her tho ap
pearanco of possessing dark-brown
eyebrows to match her hair.
"I hesitated first of all, for it was
somewhat of a dangerous undertak
intr: but in tho end I consented, and
my client went away delighted with
tho result of my labors, and I am
proud to think that I succeeded so
well that nobody would for a moment
imagine that the fine, dnrk-brown
markings on the lady's brows were
anything else but hair."
What will happen to the fair ono
when her hair turns grny, should sho
live to that period of life, is an inter
esting speculation, for nothing can
alter the color of tattoo marks. Per
haps she wijl find ample consolation,
not to say a source of .pardonable
pride, in the fact that she will carry
about with her a permanent souvenir
of tho fine color of her hair in tho
days of her youth.
"I have frequently been asked,"
said the tattooist, "to tattoo pale lips
red, but, though I have succeeded In
supplying the appearance of the eye
brows, I have always considered tho
idea of meddling with lips a danger
ous one, and have made a rule not
to undertake such cases."
Rolled reach Cnlte.
Beat 12 eggs and one pound jf su
gar together until very light, then
stir in three-fourths of a pound of
sifted flour. Line shallow oblong
pans with light brown paper (do not
uso grease on pans or paper), and
pour in tho batter. Bake in a mod
erate oven. When done remove from
the oven, lot cool a few minutes, and
while it is still warm, but not hot,
turn out of the pan upside down,
Then with a soft cloth wet in cold
water brush over the paper and pull
it oil". Pare and mash very lino ripo
peaches, make them very sweet, and
whip into the pulp the stiffly
whipped whites of two eggs. Spread
this over the cake, roll it up and pin
it securely to a napkin to keep it
from unrolling. When cold cut in
slices one inch thick and servo with
a spoonful of whipped sweetened
cream flavored with almond. This
cake must be eaten while fresh.
