Txkuxwt, Chrooomoter and Instrument Maker No 18 Market street, TBE ffTKB ALARM Anaaal Mrs ft at the Condition nnd Warning of the Line. Mr. Curraa, the Superintendent of the fire Alarm Telegraph bas filed bis annual report, in wbich described with ootif iderabls minuteness the condition and manege-ment of the line and apparatuA The most important portion of the report is that in which the Superintendent calls the attention of the Board of Supervisors to the advisability of substituting the automatic for the crank alarm boxes. Mr. Curraa on this point says "The attention of Your Honorable Board is respectfully called to the urgent necessity of discarding the crank-boxes and substituting therefor the automatin.

Improper turning at boxes from which the signal is given by crank is still the rule, and A rxxrtcr bioral thb Bxeunon. Although thb attention of key-holdess has been called to thia defect repeatedly, both by printed and personal explanation, it noticeable to as great an extent as ever, and there is but little hops of any improvement La this respect until the signalling apparatus of the boxes is changed. Nothing but a long experiencence and a thorough familiarity with the instruments and boxes, which have taught the operators tha various shapes into which a signal can be tortured, has in many instances prevented the giving of a wrong alarm, and the conse-ssqnent sending of the Fire Department to a different locality from where a fire was located, and with all our care this has sometimes happened. Something is needed that shall place it beyond the power of an ovsK-Bxcrran or an over-cautious party to give an imperfect signaL Our own experience, and that of every city that has used crank-boxes, shows conclusively that they are unreliable, and should be discarded. automatic piak-alakm boxes need not to be seen to convince one of their superiority over the crank.

One pull at the hook, which a child tnll enough to reach the box can give, seta in motion train work that gives the signal with unerring accuracy. They bare been adopted by every city that has our system of fire-alarm telegram in operation; among others, New York Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Louisville, New Orleans, and are unquestionably, tha most perfect instrument yet invented for communicating an alarm of fire. It seems to be a necessity that all our old crank boxes should be replaced by them. Where so much is at stake, no argument is needed in favor of employing the very best means that can be obtained to accomplish the desired end, vis: an instantaneous and definite fire signaL If the telegraph is worth any thing to the Fire Department, it should be pushed to its utmost efficiency.

We have in use at present 91 crank boxes, and I cannot too strongly urge their retirement from the service, and ths substitution of the automatic boxes at as early a date as possible. The pertonnel of the Fire Alarm Service consists of John Curran, Superintendent Operators Alfred Clarke R. W. Silvey, William Morton RepairersWilliam E. Ackerson, John M.

Klein and Daniel Shay. Each operator has eight hours duty in twenty-four. TEX CEST8 A TKAXSFCB. 7 JCLY 30. High Water I Low Water I High Water Low Water Large.

On Saturday sight Piatt's Hall was tilled with spectators to witness what the bill and advertisements called a sparring-match. The audience was a very mixed assemblage, including ail the grades from the short-haired "tough," whose ambition it Is to be thought a ''hard man," Up to a United States Congressman. In the audience were noticed city officials, well-known gamblers, party leaders, ex-Assemblymen, State Senators, brokers and other. After some preliminary exhibitions of wrestling and boxing, which were probably intended as appetisers for the piece-de-resistance, the struggle between Mavnard and Hogan. Both men were drssssd In white undershirt, knee-breeches, and stockings, the only difference being a red, white and blue sash, which Hogan wore around bis waist.

The men are very nearly the same height, Hogan being a trifle tbs taller, but May-nard is much better built than his opponent, with a round, full chest. Hogan is a little broader in the shoulders, but his chest is flat and he seems to lack atrength in the loins. The men fell to and hammered away at each other until the fourth round, by which time Hogan was evidently exhausted, and Mavnard struck him all over the face and body, Hogan butting wildly and weakly, the round ending in Hogau slipping down to avoid punishment, after receiving a stinger on the right eye. The fifth, sixth and seventh rounds were merely repetitions of the last round, Mavnard simply waiting for his man to coma up and be hit, fighting him down in his own corner every time. At the conclusion of the seventh round, the referee, Thomas Chandler, stepped forward and said that it was evident to all that Hogan stood not a ghost of a chance to win the fight, and it would be simple brutality to continue it, although Hogan did net wish to give it up.

He therefore declared Maynard the winner of the fight and mouey. Tha men were visited after the fight was over. Maynard bad not a mark on him, aad seemed perfectly fresh; Hogan' right aye was black, bis upper lip cut and swollen, and he seemed very much exhausted. Maynard declares that this shall be his last fight, as ha does not care to be known aa a prise-fighter, and prefers to make his living at hia regular business of musician and jig-dancer. The affair was called a glove contest, but the gleves had just enough padding to keep within the law, and the punishment was almost as severe ss if the bare fists had been used.

LOCAL. BREVITIES. St. Alban's Church proposes organizing a full surpticed boy choir. Five arrests were made yesterday for fast driving over crossings.

The Jury Caldendar will be called in the Fourth District Court on Monday next. The left wing of tha First Regiment will have a drill to-night at Horticultural Hall. It is understood that the Grand Jury will investigate the political assessment recently levied. Work on the new pilot-boat is progressing rapidly. The stem and all the midship frames are up.

The ship David Crockett arrived yesterday, in another of her flying passage 116 days from New York. From the memoranda of the Gutti Telfair, it is learned that the Chinese cook fell overboard at Empire City and was drowned. Tha new organ of the Metropolitan Temple will be tried on Thursday evening. It is blown by water-power, has three banks of keys and a pedal of thirty notes. At the monthly meeting of the Marine Board of Examiners a certificate of competency was awarded to Daniel A.

At the Recreations Grounds, a ball contest was waged yesterday between the California and Reno Clubs.

Both Clubs played badly The score was 27 for ths former to 13 for the latter. The Renos were very weak at the bat and still weaker in the field. Their pitching was wild, and three of the Calif orniaa went to base on exiled balls. The game is sufficiently described in saying that the Calif orniaa made twenty-seven errors and the Renos twenty-nine. The latter Club is now out of the race for the season, the contest being between the Calif orniaa, Athletics and Eagles.

A project is now under consideration by J. MoCloskey of the Recreation Grounds to bring to this Coast play a series of games with resident ball-players, the champion Club of the National League. From what can be ascertained at present it looks possible that the Bostons will be the Club. This Club contains many famous players, among them the Wright brothers, formerly connected with the Red Stockings. Ths project will be submitted to the Pacific Baseball League at their quarterly meeting to be held on Thursday evening- in the City Criminal Court-room.

A Communication has been received by Mr. McClos-key from A. D. Wheeler, of the Deseret Base-ball Club of Salt Lake City, relative to a starring visit by ths Club someftims in September. This Club proposes to play all the Clubs of this city and any picked ninethat may be selected from California's ball-players.

They will come, provided their expenses are assured from the proceeds of the gate money. It is also possible that the Chicago White Stockings will visit this city, as they have expressed a desire to come and try conclusions with eur base-ball clubs. An Impostrr's Tricks. Charles Johnson was arrested last svening on a charge of grand larceny, preferred by John Williams He has for some time forced himself upon the acquaintance of theatrical men through the representation that he was the agent of an illusionist troupe which he said was In Japan, but which bas been dissolved. Yesterday, bs visited the residence of John Williams, usher in the Bush-street Theatre, at No.

138 Silver street, and was Intrusted with a suit of clothes valued at $80, which he said he had been sent for. He pawned them in a shop on Third street for $4, and had the audacity to visit Williams in the Theatre. He told him that be was in straitened circumstances, and Williams waa telling him that he could stay at his house for a time, when a younger Williams entered the theatre and told his brother about the clothes. Williams turned him over to officer Harford. The fellow visited the dwelling of Charles Goodwin, of the Baldwin Theatre, laet evening, presumably with the same intention, but Goodwin answered the call and the swindle was frustrated.

The Accident ta Father Baeaard. The following particulars of the accident which befell Father Buchard, of San Francisco, and another clergyman, is taken from the Jacksonville (Oregon) Timet: "Rev. Father Buchard was severely injured by being thrown from a wagon on Tuesday last while out driving in company with Father Bianchet, George Schumpt and M. Dillon. Aa the party was ascending the hill near 14.

Hanley's place, one of the animals hitched to the vehicle gave a sudden start, the lurch causing the back seat, which was unfastened, to slip off backward with its occupants, Father Buchard and Bianchet. The former fell upon hia Lead and waa rendered insensible for a time by the shock, while the latter was also considerably bruised. The sufferers aae improving, though slowly." A Barglar Overtakesu About nine o'clock last evening. Officers D. Marshall and T.

W. Field discovered three men entering a clothing-store, at 1,511 Mason street, and gave chase, when the fellows ran away upon ther approach. The burglars separated, and two ran up Vallejo street, followed by the ofBcers, and one of them made good his escape, although Marshall fired two shots at him. Field caught the other in a vacant lot, and found upon him a duelling-pistol stolen from the store. The burglar proved to be an old convict named Ike Smith, who has just been released from San Quentin under the Goodwin Act.

The place entered is occupied by George Magner and Mayer. Fire Depart an rat Chances. James J. Maloney has been transferred from Engine Company No. 2, to Hook and Ladder Company No.

"nocKTAUf This gray-haired old fellow, known as the "Cwptafti of the Can-can Brigade," is a pioneer of '49, who came Into this port as the Captain of aa English merchantman. He is frequently seen with bis can under his arm, draining the contents of some almost empty beer barrel at the corner grocery. At times he is well-dressed, having quite a number of frisnda throughout the city. "Pete Donahue," said he, "used to give me a piece once in a while, but that racket is too thin now." "What did you do with that coat I gave you yesterday asked a gentleman of him this morning.

"Well, you see. I got tight as usual, when some other fellow, who needed it more thaa 1, came along and collared it." He also is possessed of a certain degree of learning, has often been arrested by the police but for no crime other than drunkenness. "One night," Jack took occasion to remark, "I was down in Third street with a poor devil whom I had just shewn the rounds. We were waiting for an opportunity to tap a keg when the police bore down upon us. I ran, but the other poor fellow was too sick to move, so I slid him into a doorway.

The next morning I saw him at the Morgue, dead as a mackerel." Jack says he cannot and never will reform. Here, then, is an opportunity for our humanitarians to exert themselves in the cause of reformation and Christianity.

The ocean beach may or may net prove a profitable field for labor, but there is no doubt but that a vast number of people are daily being attracted to the locality of the alleged auriferous sands. Yesterday ths ocean beach, from far above the mining camp to the Cliff House, every avenue er highway leading thereto and every wayside inn, aristocratic hostelrie, or roadside saloon were crowded. Pedestrians, too, by the hundreds, or thousands, rather, plodded over the weary miles of bard adam or yielding sand, wbich led from their homes to tne ocean r-i uoraao. II tne Bands of the Pacific Ocean yielded no gold yesterday, the purse of the curious panned out luquriantly. At a low estimate the beach was visited by from 1,000 to 1.500 vehicles, and bv some 10.000 or more people of all grades, ages, sixes and nationalities yesterday.

Work was an impossibility, for the ground waa covered with sight-seera. High jinks, moderately conducted, held supreme sway. All wss mirth, merriment and anticipation of good times. Hundreds of samples of the black and SOLDBX SAN OS were borne away in small quantities by amateur del vera, many of whom thought that by a little home industry they could make up the day's expenses by separating the golden molecules from their worthless associates. Perhaps, after all, the wisest remark waa made by an old '49er to his old "pal." who bad stood side by side with him in many a gulch and in many a camp.

"This all rignt. Bill, far the youngsteis who ha vent seen the true color, but it wont do for old stagers like you and me."

It was better to hunt gold then te grumble, aad a good thing might turn up, after alL Others thought that there was nothing in it. There wasat enough of the "stuff." The grand rule of life, "Anything to earn an honest penny, was happily exemplified yesterday. Competition waa rife in every quarter, and everything went down to bed-rock prices.

Food for the hungry, and drinks fur the thirsty, and rides for the tired and weary. Even the aristocratic Cliff House 'busses, with their forty cents for a single and 75 cent a return fare, offered, in the face of an impetuous opposition of twenty-five cents to Kearny street, to carry people for ten centa. There may be millions secreted under the ocean's discarded de bris, but, if not, the excitement bas done this much good It has taught thousands of persons that there is a beauty ou the peninsula's coast, which, blended with exercise, will call up a blush of health, renew the vigors of body and mind, and save many a doctor's dul. how to wobb thb claims- A good many of the claimants of the newly-located claims on the ocean beach met last evening at a private dwelling on Trier street to determine ss to the best mode of proceeding to work their claims.

Congress has appropriated 88,000 for the expenses of Government astronomers, and five parties hare been sent oat from the Naval Observatory at Washington. Besides these, many private individuals will also take the field.

Burn ham and Dr. Swasey will be at Central City, Colorado, and a variety of other private expeditions of more or less importance have been organized. The locations of the observing parties will be distributed at wide intervals along the line from Wyoming to Texas, in order to reduce the chances of bad weather neutralising their assertions. thx curxr ixtxrxst in the various objects to be attained by these observations is cantered upon three points- First The determination of the exact path of totality as a check on the calculations of our present lunar tables. Second The study of the physical constitution of the sun by an examination of the corona and the protuberances that jut out from behind the moon when the sun's disc is wholly obscured.

Third The discovery of any planetoids or group of planetoids thit may be between Mercury and the sun. During a total eclipse there appears around the black body of the moon a halo or glory of light, brirht, close to the place of the concealed sun, but gradually fading away outward until its light is lost ia tha general tint of tha sky. It is a sort of solar atmosphere, and its chemistry and composition, as well as the nature of the streaks which extend out from it, have been the subject of much controversy, upon which more light is likely to be thrown by the improved instruments which will be brought into use on the present occasion. Its exact time of the commencement ia in doubt, as, according to the A merican JiautfctU Almanac it was to begin in this city at 61 minutes 6 San Francisco time, and euds at 3.17 minutes seconds r. at.

while, according to the computations of Thomas Tennent, whose figures have generally been accepted as authority on this coast, it begins at 0.51 minutes and ends st 3:12 r. M. As both sun and moon appears to be moving eastward, aad the moon overtook the sun, the beginning of the eclipse was seen on the western edge of the sun, the moon seeming to eat into the latter diagonally, and with the aid of a piece of colored glass, the exact moment of contact was easily distinguished. steal Estate Matters.

Burnett, the City and County Attorney, baa decided that all corperationcdoilig business in this State are liable for the tax of ten cents for the certificates of transfer. The point was raised by the Ontario Mining Company, having its office here but issuing its stock and making its transfers in New York; also by ths Oregon Steamship Company, wbich is incorporated under the laws of Oregon and only has a branch office here. The City and County Attorney declares that the Secretary of each corporation in the State is to make a return of the number of certi tificatea issued, and it is of no consequence where the mere manual labor is performed. The following is the correspondence between the License Collector and the City and county Attorney ajHTON TO BUBJTSTT. i JDRB 6, 1867.

C. BCBAETT, City and County Attorney. TME MINIXC DEBMJS CASE. EflTeet at Hydraalle Mialag an Bear stiver as Detailed by Witnesses. The trial of the Bear River Mining Debris case was resumed at Marysville on Saturday, when the witness Chandler further testified that Bear River filled up a great deal about 1862, since that time the old channel has been almost completely obliterated, and the water runs elsewhere.

James Harrison testified that he resides in Placer county, near the junction of Bear River and Greenhorn, and has lived there twenty-two years. He mined on Bear River from 1856 to 1861 then took charge of a portion of the Bear River ditch, about fourteen miles long. He first noticed the filling of Bear River in 1867. It bas continued till the present. Up to 1862 there was no sediment of consequence in the water.

About two yeara he tested the water and found about one-fourth solid matter in suspension. He knew that large quantities of sand, pass over the ditch dam down the river. The water of the ditch is settled by several reservoirs in mountain gorges. Reservoirs about one hundred and eighty feet long by some ninety wide, and twenty-five deep. The reservoirs have sluice-ways at head of ditch to remove deposits from the water.

He sluiced out the reservoirs about three times a week. The reservoirs would fill up with shekens in one day, and heavy sand would sink through to the bottom. I hava seen hydraulic mining at You Bet and Dutch Flat. The water in the river gets low and clear comparatively about August. I have noticed this for years.

I have been at the mines in October; they were then stopped. I saw heavy stones in Bear River twelve or fourteen miles below Greenhorn, which came down since 186L The water in the early freshets carries down more sliefcens, but is by no means clear. It could not be used for domestic use or for animals. There is very little difference in the water of succeeding freshets. FEMALE BWIMMEK.

Tha Lady's Contest Wan hy Hiss Teresa The swimming contest for young ladies, which took place on Saturday afternoon, at the Mermaid Baths, foot of Larkin street, attracted a large crowd of spectators. The match waa for the championship of the Pacific Coast and a gold medal. Early in the morning a westerly breese spang up and continued throughout the day, causing more disturbance of the water than was favorable for the contest, besides keeping the temperature out of the water unusually low. Nevertheless the race waa exciting, well contested and finished in good time. Six competitors entered for the race, and at half-past two they were started oa their way by Mr.

Bob Cunningham. The course was from the raft in front of the boat-house to a stake-boat anchored in the bay and return a distance of over three-quarters of a mile. Miss Teresa Hill, the winner, covered the distance in twenty-two and a half minutes; Miss Campden, second. Miss Hill is a young lady only sixteen years of age, but of compact frame, possessing great muscular power, and an expert swimmer. The young lady was formerly a pupil of Professor Mohr, who yesterday acted with Messrs McDowell and Shotwell as judges.

The medal won by the lady is inscribed on its face, and M. S. B. Co. Ladies' Championship of the Pacific Coast, July 27, 1878," with a apace for the name of the holder, and on the reverse an engraving of the sport.

Miss Hill wa warmly congratulated and enthusiastically cheered by the spectators. None of the other contestants returned to the stake-boat. Kahhed In Ben. A Frenchman named Alexander Ramasse went on a spree last night, and ended up in a lew den on Pacific street, near Virginia alley. Here he was robbed, sad in the struggle received two deep cuts on the back of the head, which knocked what little sense he hsd out of his head.

He was then kicked out into the street, when officers Cohen and P. K. Rodgers picked him up and carried him to tha Prison Hospital. They subsequently arrested Peter Stanly, whe was identified as the assailant by Ramasse. The latter is still unabled to give a distinct account of the affair.
