It plowed a furrow of Grogan's head, but hout doing any serious Grogan had been the terror of the neigh- borhood of Ni and Franklin streets for a long time on account of his habit of get- ting drunk and abusing every one who got in his way. He had cleaned out the saloon on one or two occasions before, and been warned by Stanley that if he attempted to repeat the operation he would get hurt. He had been on a spree for several days past and wound up in Stanley’s place with the avowed intention of throwing the pro- belongings into the street. illade of dishesand other vabies for a few seconds and then drew is revolver and started to shoot.

William Bartlow (colored), administra- tor of the estate of his wife, Hannah Bart- Jow, is short $196 in his accounts. He wad rested yesterday on the charge of felony embezzlement. The estate is valued at $1000, and it was to have been divided equally between the husbandfiof the de- ceased and Mrs. Rebecca Douglas. The administrator, when brought before Judge Greene to render his account, could not tell where the $196 had gone to. He has turned his share of the estate over to his attorney in order that a settlement might be made. The court has given the Public Administrator charge of the matter. Young Men Visitors. The Young Men’s Christian Associations about the bay have formed a new plan of intervisitation. Unaer this plan the local association received a visit from the San Francisco association lastevening. A ban- quet was served and a merry time enjoyed. The young men remainud over night in s simply court in Oakland and the following programme will be_ carried day: 9:30 4.

The four-year-old son of George Lovie of Railroad avenue, near the depot, has been complaining for the past year and a half of a nasal trouble. Embedded half way up the right nostril was found a shoe button of vulcanized rub- ber. The child was placed under opiates and the ‘obstacle removed without opera- tion with the knife. A portion of the but- ton had been absorbed. The child had not known a full night's rest for months, and immediately went to sleep. Church Musie.

Dawson of the State Board of Pharmacy will soon commence the enforcement in Alameda of the State law against pharmacists. He will proceed under the law which requires that all practicing pharmacists shall present their credentials to the board and receive a cer- tificate of registratian before they may compound prescriptions or mix drugs. The purpose of the law is to prevent the incompetent fellows from handling drugs. Demurrers to the Injunction Suit. Attorney J. W. Goodwin, representing Messrs. Knowland, Jensen and Husband, u;]ho were appointed the library board by the to the injunction proceedings brought by the old board. The demurrer admits the facts on which the injunction was issued, but denies that they constitute sufticient cause for the issuance of the injunction. Suit on a Note. N. C.

The Alameda cyclers have received an invitation from the Benicia wheelmen to become their guests and participate in the parade in that town on the Fourth. BERKELEY. The Board of Town Trustees held its meeting on-Friday evening. President ‘P. R. Boone of the Board of Education was granted permission to pur- chase :a lot at the corner of Rose and Milvia streets, for $1100, upon which the Rose-street schoolhouse should be moved. The report of the License Committee recommended that all free licenses now beld be revoked on or before January 1, 1896, and that solicitors’ licenses be raised from $5 to $13 a quarter. The West Berkeley Gazette filed bonds for the faithful execution of the town printing contract, with J. B. McIntyre and 1. Zellerbach of San ANCisco " as sbreties. Bills to the amount of $365 61 were ordered paid. The liquor license question was brought up, and it was decided that the original ordinance requiring a fee of $50 from all saloon men be enforced at once. A resolution was adopted declaring all orders purporting to grant liquor licenses to J. B. Cassabone, Frank Gimbel, Charles Peterson, Eli Guiterre, H. Dagas, C. E. Waulferding, H. Peters, D. H. Brunns, John Weiman, Nammany & Sim and H. Oster- man null and void. Yesterday morning, acting under the in- structions of the board, the Marshal noti- fied certain saloon men that he would re- fuse them licenses as applied for under the $100 law, and would arrest ail who refused to make application at once under the original $200 ordinance. It was ordered thatthe Town Marshal notify the holders of the void licenses; also to inform other persons to whom licenses were ordered issued that they are uow selling liquor without licenses. The men thus notified utterly refused to make further application, on ‘the ground of the injustice and illegality of the new ordinance. The men who refused to obey the man- date of the Marshal are: Messrs. Unda, Landregan, O'Brien, Hirschiield, Higgins and Dugean. If they do not comply with the orders of the board before to-morrow morning, they will be arrested. They propose to let the Marshal take his course, and are prepared to fight the matter in the courts. The question of licenses has been pend- ing for several months past, and both the town and the saloon men have been put to considerable expense without reaching any amicable settlement. and it would now seem that there would be a lively time in the courts before a conclusion as to the legality of askinz another $100 from men who had already held licenses for which they paid at the rate of $100 a year. Wedding of Deaf Mutes. A rather unusual wedding will take \nlnce (o»dx'afv at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Harms, on Fairview street, Harry Raymond and Miss Dorothy West- phal, both deaf and dunrb mutes, being the contracting parties. The couple have been deaf and dumb since their birth and it will be necessary to perform the wedding ceremony by means of sign-language. Oniy a few of the most intimate friends have been invited.

The citizens of Berkeley, in accordance with a request from Oakland that all citi- zens of Alameda County participate in celebrating the Nation’s birthday in that city, have decided to accept the invitation.

City Trustees, has filed a demurrer | THE SAN FRANCISCO® CALL, SUNDAY, JUNE 23 FOR CALIFORNIA WOMEN, Exhibits to Be Sent to the At- lanta, Ga., Cotton Ex- position. MRS, W. TAYLOR'S MISSION. The Lady Commissloner Wishes to Organize Committees All Over This State. Mrs. Walter Taylor, one of the ladies whom ex-Governor Markham last Novem- ber appointed as a commissioner to the At- lanta (Ga.) Exposition, called at the Califor- nia State Board of Trade rooms yesterday to ask the advice and co-operation of the members of the board in the work contem- plated. Mrs. Taylor isa stranger in this City. Shecame to this State with her hus- band and child two yearsago from Atlanta and stopped in Los Angeles, and she was in that city when selected by ex-Governor Markham. Andrew Glassell of Los Angeles, and a lady in Pasadena. Mrs. Glassell is unable Mrs. Walter Taylor, the California Commissioner. [From a photograph.] to attend to the duties of the position, so the werk is likely to fall heavily upon Mrs. Taylor, especially as she is chairman of the commission that will represent the ladies of the State. The objects of the commission are fully explained by a letter from Emma Thomp- son, president of the women’s department of the exposition, which reads: My Dear Madam: The board of women managers of the Cotton States and Inter. national Exposition is anxious te secure the co- operatios of women of influence and ability t aid in making the woman’s department a suc cess. We have committees on fine arts, statu- ary, woodcerving, ceramics, embroidery, silk culture, charities and. reforns, kindergartens, training schools, inventions and ail the i portant lines of work in which women are now epgaged.

We would like to have you form committe in your State to secure n representative exhibit from your artistic, industrial and scientific women. We will endeavor to furnish an at- tractive location and do all in our power to make the exhibit creditable to your State and 10 the exposition.

The considera- tion in the first place was $1000, but the saloon was turned over to the defendant, as auctioneer, with the understanding that it was to be sold at once and all above the $1000 realized was to be divided between the plaintiff and the defendant. The saloon sold for $1950 and the suit is to re- cover half the amount. The contention of the defendant was that the plaintiff was not the real party in in- terest but that Baker & Hanilton were the real owners of the saloon. This was denied, members of the firm declaring that they were not in the saloon business. The defendant’s counsel had introduced, a long affidavit declaring that Baker & Hamilton had tried to deceive the court by representations to the effect that it would require two wagons to bring the books of the firm into court, and by state- ments denying that there wasany refer- to the Mills saloon in their books. These declarations were made at a pre- vious hearing in the ca: Yesterday both the bookkeeper and the books were in court, and it was found that there was an open ‘account in the ledger entitled “The Mills Saloon.” The case was continued until to-morrow morning. A GOLDEN GATE MIKTURE, Similarity of Names Causes a Very Laughable En- tanglement. | J. W. Noble, No. 1, Saved From the Sheriff’s Collector by the Directory. Golden Gate, Oakland, is convulsed with merriment over the queer predicament into which a similarity of names has led two residents of that town and their troubles | have become a common source of amuse- ment. There are two J. W. Nobles in Golden Gate, and to distinguish one from the other in conversation they are designated {as J. W. Noble No.1 and J. W. Noble No. 2. 0.1, who is a clerk in the railroad moved to Golden Gate about a year ago and built himself a cozy home. A little later No. 2 turned up and en- sconced himself in a handsome house, and then the trouble began. No. 1 received a great many letters, and soon after the advent of No. 2 these began | to stray into the hands of No. 2, who opened them and returned them to the | Postofiice to be transmitted to their right- ful owner. Mr. Noble No. 1 sees, one peculiar thing | about the transaction, however, which | gives him food for reflection. It is that | while No. 2 gets many of his letters he | never receives any notes belonging to No. | 2, which leads him to believe that No.2 | does not receive uny mail of his own, and | should, therefore, not open those which are | handed to him. Mr. Noble No. 1is writing to his | spondents to put a distinctive ma H{;eir letters to him, and hopes by thi means to be able to get Lis letters at fi hand. But annoying as the matter. of the let- ters is, another incident occurred a few ago which threw it entirely into the shade. Bill & Harris, clothiers, failed some time since, and the name of J. W. Noble appeared on the firm’s books as a debtor. « The Sheriff in rounding up the assets of the firm hit upon this entry and proceeded to collect the bill. Of course J. W. Noble No.1 was called upor to pay and his wrath was great when the claim was pre- sented to him. He declared that he did not owe a cent in the world, but the collector was obdurate and threatened to get the money through the medium of the courts if it was not paid peaceably. Finally Mr. Noble {'No. 1 prevailed upon the Sheriff to look into the directory and note that two J. W. Nobles made their abode in Golden Gate. Then the collector saw his mistake and pology to Mr. Noble No. 1 started of his namesake.

As soon as Mrs. Taylor bas arranged for a working committee in this City she will proceed to all of the interfor cities and form similar committees. Delegates from these committees will probably hold a meeting or two and decide upon a general plan for collecting, segregating and for- warding the articles to be exhibited. Mrs. Charles D. Willard and Mrs. Frank Wig- gins of Los Angeles have already taken the matter in hand in the interests of the women in that section. not wish to see one section more favored than another, and her main efforts will be to equalize all. The matter of transporta- tien of the goods is practically under the charge of the board of lady managers, and President Emma M. Thompson writes: “The railroads have given us free trans- portation for the women’s building, and this will facilitate you in getting exhibits.” The plans for the women’s building have been decided upon, and the picture sent to Mr. Filcher sggws it to be a beautiful structure. It will contain art galleries, colonial room, exhibit_hall, assembly hall, reading-room, educational room, organi- zation room, pressroom, executive com- mittee room, salesroom, kindergarten cooking scboo}, dining-room, kitchen, and the only emergency hospital on the grounds for the use of both male and fe- male patients. Mrs. Taylor is very anxious that the California women’s exhibit shall rank sec- ond to none in the buildin, “THE MILLS” SALOON, Its Sule Gets a Tangled Case and Well- Enown Names Into the Justices’ Court.

That's not so. When a frog bellows he is lying flat out on the water, this way.” and the speaker spread out his broad paim. “I've seen ’em. {20“ know he has a sort of wattle under his throat. Well, he fills that about half full of water and blows out the air | throughit. You’ve all put waterin a bottle and then blown into it?” There was no response, but Mr. Camp continued: “You know how that sounds. Well, a frog bel- Jows in that same way, and it sounds just like blowing in a bottle partly filled with water. Just this way,” and the speaker expanded hisown wattle and gave an imi- tation so natural as to alarm the cook in the hotel kitchen. *Do you know where a frog’s teeth are?” continued Squire Camp, encouraged by the absence of argument.

THE COGSWELL COLLEGE. A Corps of Compstent In- structors Elected for the Ensuing Year. COURSE OF STUDY APPROVED. Students to Be Instructed In Art, the Sciences and Vari- ous Trades. The board of trustees of the Cogswell Polytechnical College met yesterday and appointed a competent corps of instruc- tors for the ensuing year, and decided upon the prospectus of study which will be hereafter used for the instruction of at- | tending students. L. A. Buchanan, M.E., was appointed principal and instructor in science. Other appointments are as follows: , instructor in mathema- nets and practice in fitting for hat brims, making of bows and rosettes, using cotton flannel, sateen and cheese cloth to repre- sent respectively velvet, ribbon .or silk. When sufficient skill has been acquired hats will benade irom choice material, suitable for the season. Special eourse in cooking, combined with the above, willalso be given when the lab- oratory is properly arranged for such pur- oses. z The time required to complete the pre- liminary course, including English mathe-/ matics, science, history, with industrial training in shop work, mpdelmf, wood- carving, mechanical drawing, freehand drawing; shorthand and typewriting, dress- making, etc. (for the girls), will be two years. The student is expected at the end of such time to select some speciaity, to which the major portion of the remaining time of two years must be given, combined with such studies as may be essential to the best progress in the chosen specialty. The special branches offered as tradeand vocation specialties are: : Carpentry, pattern-making, cabinet- making, Iorfing, molding, machine-shop, architectural drawing, technical design, modeling, odcarving, cookery, dress- making, millinery, stone and sculpture work, industrial and decorative art, short- hand and typewriting, with such business methods and commercial law as may be expedient, preparatory tor technical uni- versity course. The scholastic year will begin on July ance, consisting of two terms of twenty ant in physics 1, A.M., princi- weeks each, The board of trustees consist of Dr. H. THE COGSWELL SCHOOL. [Sketched by a ¢ Call” artist.] pel of the art department and instructor of modeling and sculpture; R. Herring Jr., wood- working department; Miss Ada Brown, dress- making and millinery; Miss Martha Patterson, assistant in art department; Miss May E. Cogs- well, instructor in English and history; Miss Nellie Gallagher, instructor in shorthand and typewriting. The Cogswell College is a school to train the student in such occupations as will, when combined, make such students educated men and women both mentally ly. The endeavor is to make the academic courses applied; that is, the institution has a definite practical aim which the student may and will apply in after life, and appeals to the class that hope to work and earn their livelihood by their toil, by some mechanical, industrial or artistic pursuit. The courses of the institution will be so | conducted that the student when leaving the college at the end of the required time for completion will be practically able to compete with the person who has spent | tne same time at similar occupations in a shop, and at the same time have a broader general knowledge of subjects pertaining to his chosen vocation or specialty, that | will make him more useful and allow ;;re‘ er scope for his ambition and latent ability. The system of apprenticeship to-day is ofttimes one of extreme selfishness. The | apprentice is not employed and taught for the sake of the apprentice and the good of humanity, but for the Ermit of the em- ployer. Heis put and kept at such work as may be most productive,ofttimes spend- | ing weeks and months at a machine, or piece work, thatthe same number of days would make him thoroughly proficient in if under careful instruction.” The appren- tice in the shop learns his trade by erring and trying generally without the aidgof any formal instruction or concise descrip- tion of what he intends to do. In the Cosswell school and similar institutions it is different: he is told what to do and how to do it and shown by practical demon- stration the best possible manner of exe- cuting a certain piece of work and without having to measure the time of doing it in dollars and cents. The synopsis of instruction will include instruction in English, mathematies, sciences, which include physics and chem- istry for the present, history, mechanical drawing, freehand drawing, sewing, dress- making, millinery, cooking,‘ woodwork, blacksmithing, machine-shop and foundry work, including -ali metal work generally carried on in commercial shops, shorthand and typewriting, and numerous special courses open to those who have received preliminary -training elsewhere, or have reached an age when they could not give the required time to the regular course of instruction. The special art course will consist of a course in_drawing and painting in water- colors and oil from models. casts, araperies, still life and the living model. Mechanical drawing, embracing letter- ing, plane and descriptive geometry, espe- cially the geometric principles of shades and shadows, perspective, eic., historical, ornamental and original design. Lectures will also be given on anatomy, pertaining to art, architectural ornament, furniture, cabinet work, pottery, glass, etc. Designs for industrial and “decorative purposes, such as fabrics, oilcloth, stained glass, hall Sketching from nature and for news- paper work, time sketches, etc. A special course in clay modeling pre- scribed or combined with the above, in- cluding studies of ornament from casts, details of the human figure and animals from casts, ornaments from photos and vrints, studies from the living model.

Sundries Were Expensive. Among the items of expenditure of the Carlton Club last year *‘snuff and tooth- picks” figure, I read, at £15. The institu- tion is evidently not deterred from re- newing these latter articles, as was the proprietary club which declined any longer to provide them upon the ground that members never returned them. The out- lay on snuff, considering the cheapness of the other commodity and how few snuff- takers are left even in Pall Mall, sounds so large as almost to suggest that it covers some other expense that would not look so well in the schedule, says a writer in the London Illustrated News. It reminds me of what happened on the occasion of a ukase issued by the Governor of the Woolwich Academy many years ago. The cadets were younger than they are at present, but still not schoolboys, and yet it was decreed that three guineas of pocket money should be considered sufficient for the term. That this wa® scarcely conso- nant with their expenditure may be gath- ered from the fact that one of them kept a pack of beagles. However, each was re- quested to state the items of his expendi- ture for the current quarter—a delicate matter in some cases and rather difficult to comply with. The returns were a little vague. 1 remember one of them—*Luci- fers and sundries, £40.” T According to Muller the total number of words, or rather ideas, expressed by Chi- nese characters is 43,59. 22, 1895, and _have forty weeks of attend- | MILLIONS FOR THE STATE The Princely Offer of Lands Made by the General Government. NO MOVE MADE TO ACCEPT. It Means Ranches for Thousands of Farmers at Comparatively Little Cost. For little more than the simple ask- ing the State of California can come into possession of 1,000,000 acres of lands, which will be worth anywhere from $2,500,000 to $20.000,000 in cash. But in addition to | covering this vast amount of re ady money into the State treasury, the proper action by the authorities will make fit for settle- ment 1,000,000 acres of land within the | State which is now almost useless. By an actof the last Congress, it was | provided that the Federal Government shall donate to each State in which there | are arid lands 1,000,000 acres of such lands, oh condition that the reclamation is done by the State, and that not more than 160 | acres are sold to any one person. The | Federal Government retains possession of the land for five years, and if at the end of that time the reclamation appears to be permanent the title to the land passes to the State and thence to the settler. Idaho, Wyoming and Montana have al- ready taken the necessary preliminary steps for securing the gemnerous gift for their respective commonwealths. but no move of any kind has yet beey made by California, w?lich stands to be the greatest beneficiary under the act, by reason of the fertile character of her arid lands when placed under irrigation, her climate and the ample supply of water obtainable for irrigation purposes under a suitable sys- tem of operation. Few men have given greater attention to the subject of arid land reclamation in the State than W. 8. Green of Colusa and United States Surveyor-General for Cali- fornia. “‘There is no doubt,” said he, “that Cali- fornia has a great opportunity in this con- nection, but it will require careful and considerable preliminary work to make such arid tracts as remain in this State available for sale by the State. “There are easily a million acres of de- sirable desert land in the State that have not yet been filed upon by intending set- tlers, but they cannot be found in one compact tract. Large areas exist in the counties of Lassen, Modoc, Mono, Plumas, Inyo and San Bernardino, and there are also smaller tracts in the northern portion of San Diego and the southeastern part of Los Angeles County, but there is very little of such land in either the San Joaquin or Sacramento valleys. “So far as I have any knowledge, no step has yet been taken by Governor Budd looking toward taking advantage of this magnificent offer of the Government, though his attention has been directly cflllefi to the matter by a letter I sent him during the session of the Legislature. “It is too bad that the session was | allowed to close without the Legislature | baving authorized some one to take up the | matter or having passed some measure | that would permit of preliminary steps | being taken.” Two more years must now elapse before anything can be done, and in | the meantime much of these lands will be filed upon through the Federal iand offices. Had action been taken it might have | helped along the work on the big ditch iout of the Colorado near Yuma, which is designed to irrigate about 300,000 acres. “Itis difficult to tell what method will | be pursued by the State. There are three | that now occur to me, but each will meet | with more or less objection. “Which ever of these schen.es may be de- cided upon there is certain to be a big profi to the State from the sale of the lands, ps | ticularly if they are sold at anction. {will be all the way from 500,000 to | $20,000,000, or even more if the lands are | favorably located In London only a twelith of the post- | office is employed on Sunday duty, and the average length of Sunday’ cuty is less than six hours. e —————————————————————————————————————————————— Thousands Have Been Nothing succeeds like success. It is their success in the treatment of chropic diseases, as attested in every cese by fresh and interesting testimonials published by Drs. Copeland, Neal and Winn. It is their success in their chosen field of work which their army of pa- tientsare ever chanting. It is thelr success that enables them to treat for so low a fee all who come to them for treatment, to furnish medicines in addition and to give the most perfect satisfaction in their work. An illustration of the testimony given by grateful patients is shown in the following statement by Mr. 8, P. Leeds, a gentleman very well known, not only in this city, but over the ‘whole coast. He says: “Some time ago 1 placed myself under the care of the physicians of the Copeland Insti- tute for the treatment of a combination of catarrh and bronchial disorders. I took treat- ment for a month or two, and was rapidly re- covering my health when circumstances pre- vented my continuing. Subsequently I re- newed the course, and now am fully restored 1o health and am free from all the disagreeable symptoms. I had an almost continuous die- charge of mucus from the nostrils, causing an irritatfon of the membrane of the nose. It gradnally extended to the throat, and there was an incessant irritaiion, producing violent coughing spells, a fetid breath and a general weakening ot the entire system. During the cessation of the treatment the disease greatly increased, and when I resumed the treatment it did not vield so readily, but I persevered, and as I have stated a radical cure has been effected. I make this statement with a desire that those who are similarly afflicted may be cured, and advise all such not to be discour. aged if they do not find immediate relief, but to persevere and they will be_certain of being completely cured, as T was, My case is not the only one. Several of my friends, when thew were convinced of the efficacy of the treatment in my case, have followed my advice, and now not only rejoice in being restored to heaith, but express their gratitude to me for calling their attention to the means of being cured.
