DAY CREEK ALLE AOA The Survey for the Proposed Line Completed Nearly to Healdsburg. It Will Terminate in the Redwood Belt at the Head of Ander- son Valley. . Shea i HEALDSBURG, Cav., July 3.—The sur- veying party that bas for the past several weeks been laying out the route for the proposed railroad from this city through the Dry Creek Valley and up into the big redwood belt, aiong the Mendocino coast, is camped in Dry Creek Valley, three miles above town, and will probably run the lines into Healdsburg on Friday. The survey is completed to within four miles of town, and the distance covered by the surveyors is 121 miles. Members of the surveying party claim that Chicago capitalists would build the road, but many here believe that the Southern Pacific is behind the move and that the Santa Rosa branch of that road will be extended to Healdsburg and on up the route surveyed. The country through which the surveyors have been working emb-aces the rich Dry Creek.

The fact that nearly 4000 votes were castin the choosing Merchants have decorated in a most lavish manner, and from the plaza far out into the residence section, especially over the line of march, the liberality of property owners and ten&nts is in pleasing and con- spicuous evidence.

Miss Price is unusually bright and vivacious, yet withal modest and un- assuming. She is very pretty and has a wealth of beautiful blonde hair. Miss Mamie Richardson, who will repre- sent Columbia, is another of Angels’ fair- est daughters. She is a handsome bru- placed on scratch, making the race, accord- ing to local judgment, between Ulbricht and McCrea. ‘The entries include so many, however, who have never made_records that few pools have been sold. Ulbricht is a decided favorite. BEARS FOR A DBARBECUE.

DR. GUNSAULUS TALKS. An Eloquent Discourse by the Famous Chicago Divine. TO-DAY THEY WILL CELEBRATE. ’ Extensive Preparations Made for a Proper Observance of the Fourth. PACIFIC GROVE, CarL., July 3.—The City of Pines fairly swarmed with visitors to-day. The Chautauqua is in full blast, and those not busy with their classes were engaged in decorating the dwellings and streets with bunting and evergreens. To- night the National colors show out bril- liantly from under the electrical illumina- tion. 2 At Assembly Hall this morning things took a lively turn, as classes were being formed and every one was anxious to get through so they could get down to actual work. Several of the ladies decorated As- sembly Hall forthe reception of Dr. Gun- saulus of Chicago, who gave his opening lecture to-night. The rostrum was one mass of ferns and flowers. Dr. Hirst called the assembly to order. The house was well filled and the organiza- tion of classes took up considerable time. The classes show a great increase in mem- bership over last year, and every one is taking great interest in the work. The forum hour, 11 A. M., proved very popular. Professor Blackman opened the meeting with an address on the late Pullman strike and its influence on the United States as a whole. After this talk the meeting was opened for debating, and any one was wel- come to ask such questions as they wished to. The forum hour closed the morning session, This afternoon Professor John Ivey gave his first lecture on art before a large class. Mr. Ivey always brings with him a large collection of fine works of art and uses them in his demonstrations. At 5 p. M. the round-table convened at the Museum building. A reunion ot Chautauquans was held and reports were read. The feature of to-day’s programme was the lecture by Dr. F. W. Gunsualus of Chi- cago. It was one of the finest ever aeliv- ered during the Chautauqua sessions. The subject was, “The Eloguence of Puritan- ism.” In his remarks the speaker dwelt upon the fact that every age brings out great puritanic eloquence. He began with Abraham as being the first great Puritan— a man whose every word was a word of eloquence. ism, that -/ has gone with the oc- cident of activity, and not knowing whither it has gone. He upon the great puritans of the world, the ends they have accomplished by their few words—their few burning words of elo- quence that has saved nations. He spoke of Wendell Plillips as the greatest man of our times; the man who saved the Nation from slavery, and who, said Dr. Gunsaulus, was the greatest orator who has used the English tongue for the last seventy-five vears. No man, he said, ever mastered the mob by ideas as did Wendell Phillips. He gave personal reminiscences of his as- sociations with Wendell Phillips, which added greatly to the interest of the lecture. He considers the greatest orator of the hour Dr. Parkhurst of New York. Dr. Gunsaulus is a man of magnificent physique. He is eloquence itself. To-morrow being the Fourth there will be no regular sessions, but the day will be given up to the Chautauquans. Extensive preparations have been made. At 3 p. M. there will be a free lecture at the Metho- dist Episcopal church by John Flournoy of San Francisco. Mr. Flournoy is an orator of rare gifts, and an observer. The lecture will be a treat, as there will also be a musical programme arranged. In the evening there will be an 1llustrated lecture by Rev. H. H. Rice of Oakland. BAOIS SHOT T0 DETH Mexican Justice Meted Out to Four Men Who Robbed a Stage. Executed After They Had Confessed the Crime and Revealedthe Hid~ ing-Place of the Loot. NOGALES, Ariz., July 8.—Four of the five men who held up the paymaster of the Nacasari Copper Company on June 13 were captured by the authorities of the State of Sonora, Mexico, and Sunday they were taken to the scene of their crime and shot to death, under the new law providing for the punishment of train and stage robbers in Mexico. The paymaster was on his way to the mines on the day named, when the stage was stopped on the highway by five men, who murdered the driver and rifled the money bags of $6500. The bandits were captured, and proved to be prominent men. Oneof them was Jesus Escalante, Mayor of Fronteras, Sonora; another was Robert Tribolet, a well-known and respected citizen of Bisbee, Ariz.. and the otber two were servants of Escalante. ‘When the doomed men were taken to the scene of the murder and robbery they confessed their crime and revealed the hiding place of the stolen gold, after which they were blindfolded and shot to death.
