Probably one of the most novel commit- | tees appointed to make arrangements was | that on “morning awakening.” Its duty is just what the name signifies—to awaken | the people. A half hour (from 7 to 7:30 | A. »r.) has been set apart for the exclusive | of that committec. It has decided to offer prizes to those persons devising the est means of making & noise.

Street Superintendent Frodden is not much worried over the injunction suit to stop the tearing down of the fences at Schuetzen Park and to recover $1000 dam- ages from the city. Plaintiff J. Dunn claims that he owns the two strips of land covered by Kings and Centennial avenues, and it was to satisfy himself on these points that Frodden examined the deeds at the Hall of Records and found that W. Brown many years ago sold the land out of the Oak Shade Tract to the Schuetzen Verein, at which time the two streets named were laid out. The Schuetzen owners afterward sold to Dann, and the deed excludes from the description of the purchased property the strip covered by streets, the benefits of which have been enjoyed by the park for many years.

THE CHILDREN TO TAKY PART. Talk of Inviting the Rev. Anna Shaw and a Girls’ Military Company to Asslst. A meeting of the executive committee having in charge the Fourth of July cele- bration was held at the headquarters in the Mills building yesterday. Many ladies were present. 1 Various committee reports were received. Chairman Worth reported that the decora- tion committee desired to wind with bunt- ing all the telegraph poles on Market street. He claimed that the decoration of | the city was half the celebration, and made a strong plea for the appropriation of $4000 which his committee had asked. Mrs, Sarah B. Cooper suggested that the literary committee add a half hour to its vrogramme and ask Miss Shaw of Woman’s Congress fame to occupy tlmc; time. Her request was referred to the | literary committee. Secretary Owen read the following let- ter: | | SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 3, 1895. Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, Chairman Ladies’ Auzili- ary of the Fourth of July Committee: DEAR Mapay: Learning through the dally papers that any suggestions relative to the &firrauch- ing Fourth of July celebration would be re- ceived, I write to suggest that a sufficient num- | ber of misses from the High School to represent the several States in the Union, each bearing a flag upon which the name of her State shall appear, the whole body escorted by the High School Cadets, assembleé at_the “Liberty Tree,” Conservatory Valley, Golden Gate Park, and there salute the flag, sing “America,”or engage in such other literary exercises as your com- mittee may deem appropriate. You will recollect that the *“Libert: was planted by Sequoia_Chapter, Daughters of the Revolution, of San Francisco, on “Patriots’ day,” April 19, 1894, as an object lesson de- signed to_foster true patriotism, and to per- petuate the memory and spirit of the men and women who achieved American independence, and was deposited in soil conmtributed from battle fields and made memorable in our Revo- Intionary War, and from near monuments, buildings and tombs_erected in commemora: tion of the servicesof the Revolutionary sol- diers, sailors, patriote and heroic women who have bequeathed to us our noble heritage. Hop- ing the suggestion will meet with your ap- proval, I am, cordially, I. IsazELrLA HUBBARD, 1912 Pierce street. The suggestions in the letter Jwere re- ferred to the parade committee. Mrs. T. E. Smith suigested that those who contribute fiowers should be instructed to make them up beforehand in small bou- | quets suitable for distribution in the hos- pitals. She said that Clara Morris, the actress, had requested her friends so to do | on her opening night and her wishes had | been respected. All the flowers received on that evening were donated by her for distribution in the hospitals, and her fore- | thought had saved much labor to the ladies of the Fruit and Flower Mission who took | charge of the distribution. Grand Marshal Forster submitted the following report of progress: Thus far the follewing have accepted inyita- tions to participate in the parade: The entire Second Brigade of the State militia, eight com- | panies of the regular army; twenty-one parlors | of the Native Sons (the éntire membership of | this city. who will iniroduce two appropriate floats, one representing the ‘“Days of '49” mining incidents, etc., and the other not yet decided upon); the Veteran Guard, whichisa branch of the G. A. R.; the Mexican War Vet~ erans, the Pioneers and the Exempt Firemen, Tree” tofore, will have it drawn by four horses. Colonel Graham of the United States army has kindly consented to permit the color guard of his regiment to act as the celor guard for the procession. This guard will be placed at the head ,of the proces- sion. A special invitation is extended to all of | the public schools in San Francisco re- | guesting them to place in line a class of either boys orgirls of one of the higher | grades from each school. A banner with the name of the school inscribed thereon will be furnished to each class participat- | ing in the parade. The grand marshal | specially requests any of the older mem- | bers in” the schools’to organize a class for | the purpose suggested and report to him at the headquarters of the Fourth of July | committe, room 2, fifth floor, Milis building. g | A special invitation is also extended to the members of the Grand Army of the | R;.Ambhc to pan_lci}_)me in the parade in a | b A place in line will be reserved for them. Itisrequested that they report at the headqfuarlers of the committee the number of men who will likely be in line. Mrs. Rose French suggested that the military company of young ladies in the Horace Manu School be invited to take part in the entertainment of the day. The grand marshal has prepared the | following address to the business men of | this Cit; | Dear Sir: Your attention is respectfully called to the approaching Fourth of July cele- | bration to be held in this City. It is intended | to be one calculated to inspire and enlarge the | spirit of patriotism, advance the progress of | our City in every material respect, and to be of such a character that, without doubt, thou- sands of people will be sttracted to our City, The arrangements are in the hands of some of our best and most prominent citizens. It is | t0 be a celebration of the people, for the people | and by the people. Such a celebration as fhe one suggested cannot, however, be made a complete success without the combined efforts of all our citizens. The street parade is expected to be the grand- est the geo]ue of this City have witnessed for | years. No pains or efforts will be spared in | making it such. The most elaborate prepara- | ticns are now under way. All military com- panies and societies, clubs and organizations of every class will be invited to participate. Already many of the organizations and soci- eties invited, as well as the entire militia and & portion of the regular army, have accepted our invitation to participate in the parade. There will be many floats and features in line representing patriotic and historic events. Societies will bring out floats appropriate to the purpose of their organization. We are very anxious to have the industries of our State and City made a prominent fea- ture in the parade. Will you assist usin this matter by placing in line a float or business wagon, appropriately decorated, representing | your particular business? We trust that your | patriotism and love for your State and City and their progress will prompt you, as an American cltizen and well-wisher, to comply With this our earnest request.

The Interest Five Times the Amount of the Principal. The curious way in which interest com- pounds when its principal remains unpaid was illustrated in a case in Judge Murphy’s court vesterday. Asa Fisk, a money-lender, was suing Cameron H. Kini on a promissory note. Following were the explicit terms of the note, showing the interest agreed to: SAN FrANCISCO, Cal., March 21, 1890. Six months after date without grace I prom- ise to pay to Asa Fisk or order the sum of three hundred and ten dollars, to be paid only in gold coin of the Government of the United tates of America, for value received with in- terest thereon in like gold coin from date at the rate of 3 per cent per month until paid. interest to be paid monthly in advance, and if not paid to compound monthly and bear there- after the same rate of interest as the principal sum for value received. This note tobe paid at the banking house or office of Asa Fisk in the City of San Francisco. % CAMERON H. KING, Under this simple-appearing document King became indebted on a §310 DOIE&' $1602 interest, making his debt $1912. evidently did not expect to be able to pick any hole in the wording of the note, for he did not appear in_court yesterday and Fisk obtained a judgment for the full amount by default. Mr. Fisk also asked for counsel fees, and although Judge Murphy exhibited some indignation at the request he found the ! applicant was within his right under the | law. He, therefore, allowed him §5 for | counsel fees. | CHARLEY FARLEY DEAD. H Heart Disease Ends the Carcer of a| Well-Known Man About Town. Charley Farley, brother of John Farley of the Peerless saloon, dropped dead in a stable at the corner of Front street and Broadway yesterday. He had been around | all day, but once or twice complained of not feeling very well. About 4:30 ». m. he said he was going home to lie down, but | before he reached the door he smfgered‘ attemped to recover, and then fell in a heap on the floor. 3 o A surgeon was called in, but his services were not required. P, The Coroner was notified, and a message was also sent to his brothers. Dr. Barrett made an examination and reported that death was due to heart disease. Charley Farley was known to many of the young men in San Francisco. Atonetime he was worth a great deal of money, but helost 1t all, ang latterly he has been hard | up, although his brothers never saw him ‘ wanting. Years ago he was proprietor of a popular resort on the corner of Commer- cial and Kearny streets, and later owned a place on Pine street. After losing his money he was barkeeper in some of the best known places in the City, and subse- quently engaged in the livery business. JUST ONE DAGP OF BLOOD Upon That Hangs the Life of a Man Who Was Convicted of Murder. Freeman Smith in the Shadow of the Gallows Awaits the Result of Analysls. ‘When Frgeman Smith, found guilty in Colusa County of murder in the first de- gree, was on trial he claimed that certain stains on overalls he wore about the time the murder was committed were stains of blood from a hoe that was slaughtered. The prosecution claimed thatit was human blood and that it was the blood of the man he was accused of having killed. Recently Governor Budd was appealed to, to- save the life of Smith, who, unless the executive interferes will be hanged next Friday. The plea was set up that the testimony against the prisoner was purely circumstantial, and it was not suffi- cient to establish guilt beyond all question. The Governor heard all that could be | said and then read the transcriptof the testimony given on the trial. There was | one point that troubled him, and that was | e | the ‘one in relation to the blood on the | 4 overalls. He did not feel satisfied that it was human blood, still the proof presented did not convince him that it was that of a hog as claimed by the defense. Before he is convinced on this point he will not de- cide the fate of the prisoner who is now under the shadow of the gallows. To act without positive knowledge in so grave a matter is contrary to the Govern- | or’s principles, so he has invoked science to nelp him. He requested Dr. Douglass W, Montgomery of this City to make all known tests, to determine if possible the c})]amct.er of the blood on the stained over- alls. The doctor ascertained that an analysis had been made by Professor Thomas Price, assayer and chemist, and that that gentle- man had come to the conclusion from the tests that he had made that the stains re- sembled very much those of human blood. Yesterday a microscopic test was to have been made at the doctor’s office on Sutter street. Drs. Spencer and Abrams were present, as was also Professor Price, but the test was postponed until to-day. ‘‘Professor Price,” said Dr. Montgomery yesterday, “will not have anything to do with the tests we shall make. He simply called to tell us the method he followed in making his analysis. We have already made tests, and while our method is not quite similar to that of the professorit leads to the same end. We have also made a microscopical test, the enlargement being between 800 and 900, but neither that nor the analysis satisfied us that it is either with human or bogs’ blood that the over- alls are stained, and for that reason we will make further tests to-morrow. Itisan ex- tremely difficult task at this time, the stains being over a year old, to determine with absolute certainty what the blood is— that of a human being or that of an ani- mal. The average corpuscle of human blood is from 3.200 to 3.250 of an inch, | while the average of that of a hog is 4.230. That has to be measured on a micrometer under the lens. The corpuscle dries, dis- integrates, and we are forced to restore it to as near its normal size as possible, a most difficult task. Still we will do the pest that science teaches us, but it will take some time before we reach any con: | clusion.” a 1 “Meanwhile, doctor, the prisoner’s time is getting very short, and it seems that his life depends on a drop of blood.” “That is true,”’ answered the doctor, ‘‘but we hope to reach a conclusion in time to notify the Governor, whatever that con- clusion may be.” The first English jester on record was Hitard, who served Edmund Ironside, the gallant son of Ethelred the Unready. Out of gratitude his royal master bestowed on him the town of VVValwo\‘th, which he held during the reign of Canute, Harold Hare- foot and Harthacanute. ——— - ..

Dana’s Criticisms Indirectly Pro- ductive of Good, Says Mr. Eggers. According to Herman Eggers, the Fresno viticulturist, California wines are just now having quite a boom. He ac- credits the exertions of the wine producers of the Btate ‘with the result, as having been in the right direction. He explained how yesterday. “The increased demand and conse- quently increased value of our wines,” said he, “‘have followed logically. Then, too, we are sending our wines to districts that never asked for them before. Orders { from the old centers are so much larger that the output each month for some time | past has been over a third more than for the corresponding months of last year.” “Then you do not think Editor Dana’s strictures on California wines were hurt- ful?” was asked. “Ontheconcrary,"Mr.Eg§ersres onded, “I think they were helpful. They in- directly called attention to the fact that California produces some glorious wines. I have no doubt that Mr. Dana had im- bibed some that were bad, but his criti- cisms aroused the winemakers to the necessity of showing that such were not representative products. = *‘1t is true that some inferior wines are disposed of in the East—mostly the prod- ucts of small vineyards whose proprietors do not yet know how to make good wine. These growers, finding the market here closed to them, send them away whenever they can secure buyers. “It isalso true that as high as 15and 16 cents a gallon is realized for inferior wines there, which is about what dry wines could easily command in the cellar here. It practically means that the net price_there 1s from 4 to 6 cents, because the freight is from 5 to 7}4 cents, and the coogemge costs about 414 cents more. The cheapest sal- able wine here brings 15 cents a gallon clear at home. “The present good prices are due largely to a shortage of last year's crop. There are many things that have assisted, how- ever. The growers are better organized | and are branching out so as to supply | the trade that formerly purchased from the wholesale merchants who owned no vines. Poor wines are being sent to the distiliery instead of being put on the market to pull down prices. The growers are no longer cutting each others’ throats financially by trying to underbid. They have found that if they hold fora | reasonable figure they can get it now they | have combined. | _“But the best reason of all, perhaps, is | that we have riper wines on hand and make better wines every year. Experience has taught most of the vineyardists many | valuable, though costly, lessons. 3 | “Everything is promising for the coming | year. The weather so far has given the | growers of Fresno reason to expect a heavy | crop of grapes.” | Mr. lggers elaborated upon the many advantages oi Fresno, particularly in the | matter of climate. “There is a phenom- | enal proportion of saccharine matter,” he | continued, “in the Fresno grapes. In the | muscats, for instance, there has to be ‘25 per cent’ before they are considered ripe nough to pick. Sometimes 38 and even 0 per cent of the juice is pure sugar. Of | course, wine produced from such would | contain a maximum of strength and alco- hol-producing qualities. | . “As to bouquet, I think it would be hard | to find anything superior to our finest mus- | cats and tokays. Our sherries and an- | gelicas are also of sglendid quality. None of these wines are the kinds whica Editor Dana critici b Joy’s tor the Jaded ana Good N0 SECRET i¥ THIS WOMAN’S CASE.
