This evening there was a repetition of the scene in the State House grounds, where the pines of the far Himi- layas grow by the side of the sturdy native redwoods, and California could not have asked for better homage from its sonms. There could be no better proof of the char- acter of a class of young men than their be- havior when a whole city is placed com- y under their control. ery organization in the order was re- g its friends to-day at some special, odious headquarters, and every ve Sons was provided for manner.

Stores are open and business is going on as usual—rather livelier than usual, so as not to cause any inconvenience. There is no restriction of any kind to-day in the deco- rated Cradle City. The press headquar- ters at the Mayor's office has all day been one of the liveliest and best places of the city. Editor J. N. Larkin of the Sun- day Leader is in charge, and with him is Dr. J. 8. Curtis, who supplies all sorts of historical information about Sacramento County, the Native Sons and the State. The “New Sacramento,” as everybody and every newspaper expr s 1t, is doing a wonderful work of entertainment, but in this it is the same old Sacramento. There has been little to-day in the way of celebration except the grand concert at Sutters Fort by Roncovieri's band in the afternoon, and the evening concert at the Capitol grounds. Thousands of people vis- jted the historic old fortification in the afternoon and strolled through every nook and corner ot the place. The fort is now marked according to the use to which the various sections were put in the days of old—the aays before the gold. Going to the right front, the main entrance, the visitors went through the stores and apart- ments of C. C. Pichetts, miners’ supplies; Hensley, Redding & Co., miners’ supplies; Priest, Lee & Co., miners’ supplies; the toolhouse, the distillery, the northwest bastion, the wagon-repair shop, Carey’s boarding-house, the granary, the black- smith shop, the fort headquarters, the body-guard rooms, General Sutter’s apart- ments, the office of the fort, White’s bil- liard-room, the storehouse, Peter Slater’s saloon, the southeast bastion, the imi- grant’s building, and the central building, that is now used as a museum. When the fort was dedicated—two years ago last April—the museum was of exceed- ing interest to the Pioneers and the Native ©ons. There were relics of General Sutter and of Marshall, the gold discoverer, that brought the bebolder back to the pioneer times almost in spirit as well as in his- torical record, but the relics were loaned to the proprietorsof the Forty-nine Mining Camp at the Midwinter Fair. From San Francisco they were taken Ato Chicago, it is supposed, without permission, and nobody pl the hotel the vi lation, ESCORTING THE NATIVE SONS TO THEIR HEADQUARTERS AFTER THEIR {Sketehéd by @ 4Catl?? arti D] . !;:‘ 4/ ARRIVAL AT 2 A. M. SUNDAY. them. The relics were given in trustto! the men in charge of the restored fort, and there were many inquiries about them this afternoon. It is quite probable from the statements made that some of the influ- ential members of the Order of the Native Sons will cause an inquiry to be made with | a view to prosecuting the men who failed | to return the relics. | At the door of General Sutter’s room in the fort Henry C. Martin of San Francisco, the pride of the order, met Jack Scroggs of Sacramento Parlor. “How much do you weigh?’ asked Scroggs. | I weigh more than you do,” said Mar- | tin. | “I’1l bet you don’t.” “T’11 bet T do.” “How much do you weigh, Martin?"’ | “Three hundred and forty. And you?'” There was a jovial laugh from the two | solid men who will together weigh 800 | pounds by the next celebration; and then | Senator Bert, the thinnest man in the | order, intérjected: ‘“Well, you're a pretty | pair."” “Where is your badge, Mr. Martin?” | asked a Sacramento young la " said the | “My badge? I haven’t any secretary. | “Well, you have lots of room for one,” remarked the girl. And so the famous treasurer continued to supply the native sons and daughters | with amusement. | The evening scene was at the Capitol | grounds, where a sacred concert was given from 8 to 10:30 o’clock. It was estimated that from 5000 to 10,000 persons were present, and it is doubtful whether the park will be more popular even to-morrow night, when the big building and all the trees will be covered with the electric | lights. Aside from the concert, the even- ing was without incident, and the city is getting ready for the great events of to- niorrow. The Native Daughters have already taken a prominent vart in the celebration as an organization. They had charge of the reception at’ Sutter’s Fort, and several important social events have been con- ducted by them. California Parlor has presented to Sacra- mento Parlor of the Native Sons a banner, the materials of which cost $500. That | banner will be one of the features of to- morrow’s parade. It is of silk and gold, and is adorned representations of Sut- ter's Fort, a g ¥ bear and other familiar | emblems of the Natives. The banner was presented by Mrs, C. N. Post of California Parlor and accepted by E. J. Weldon, pres- ident of the Sacramento Parlor. Itis stated by the police to-night that a lot of crooks have arrived, and several cases of pocket-picking have been reported. A purse containing $15 25 was stolen from Miss Recting of San . HOMES OF THE PARLORS. Where Visiting Brethren Arve Assured of Open Hospitality. SACRAMENTO, Car., Sept. 8.—The various headquarters of the Native Sons’ parlors throughout the city are a scene of constant activity and excitement and their decorations are beautiful beyond deserip- tion. But head and shoulders above the rank and file are the headquarters of Stan- ford Parlor No. 76 of San Francisco, which is located at Turner Hall. * A step within the rich portieres that guard the entrance is a step into the mythical fairy land of. nursery days; a realization of the early ceems to know what has since become of | held high carnival with aill her attendent | spirits. By the aid of having double curtains draped over the numerous windows the rays of King Sol have been entirely ex- cluded while the heavy portieres that guard the main entrance materially assist in re- pelling the advances of the lighted shafts from the heavens. As the visitor crosses the threshold a blaze of electric lights greets him softened by cardinal-colored shades that add addi- tional beauty to the interior. 1n the ex- treme end of the hall is a representative of a sunburst from the clouds. This consists of a draping in the form of half a golden globe of mammoth dimensions rising above a dark background, with golden rays shooting upward and outward, andds | a solid flame of incandescents consisting of ights. In the center of the hallisa pyramid of vari-colored lights that gleam | and sparkle, throwing delicate tints over much of the vast apartment. There are long, trailing curtains of lace suspended within_the double curtains that act as guards against the sunlight, and extensive and elaborately arranged draperies of red, | orange and green in delicate tints are sus- pended from all portions of the interior. A reception committee is on hand at all hours to receive and administer to the wants of visiting brethren who may enter their hospitable quarters, and especial at- tention has been accorded the representa- tives of the press, a private room having been furnished and decorated for their | benefit. The members of this parlor will appear in the Admission day’s parade as the guests of Oakland Parlor, and will recipro- ™ 45010 NG MAYS o cate in the eveningbya'grand ball ten- | dered in homor of Qakland Parlor.

This is distinctively the haunt of that nocturnal intruder, the owl, and his hoot can be heard at all sea- sons. Mission Parlor of San Francisco, which occupies a Senate chamber in the Capitol building, has its apartments elaborately decorated and is dispensing hospitality with the free-handedness of the Natives’ forefathers. Nor are the Sacramento County parlors, who claim the Assembly chambers as their temporary domicile, be- hind any of the others in point of deco- ration and open-handed hospitality. Oakland Parlor No. 50 has camped in the Supreme Court chambers and the halls of justice reechoes with the sounds of was sail and revelry. The Placer County Par- lors have not fairly got settled in the State Printer’s office, but Placer County’s hospi- tality is too well known throughout the State for an existing doubt that they will gain a place of prominence as regards | generosity. Rincon Parlor No. 72 of San Francisco is | located at Granger’s Hall, and 1insures every one a generous welcome. Pacific Parlor No. 10 has apartments at Pythian Castle, and its tables are spread as were those of the olden-time lords of Merrie England. Alcalde Parlor inhabits the forest glades of Red Men’s Hall, and the wigwam is always bounteously supplied. Golden Gate Parlor No. 28is at Pythian Castle, and its tables groan with bounty. California Parlors occupy Liberty Hall— fitly named. All brethren are at home when they enter this domicile. ‘Woodland Parlor No. 30 has camped in the Foresters building and the greenwood shades fully exemplify the days of Robin Hood and Friar Tuck. Sequoia Parlor No. 160 has also chosen apartments in the Foresters building, and although venison and the other rich attributes of the table that are supposed to frequent the groves from which they derive their cognomen are conspicuous by their absence, there is an abundance of those eatables and drink- ables that go to make merry the heart of man. San Francisco No. 49, although located in the basement of the Pioneer building, are close to the roof in point of hospitality and are exemplifying the fact that though the mantle of their early fathers may have further to fall yet when it strikes it resembles clearly the open-handed gener- osity of the early Argonants. El Dorado Parlor No. 52 is at Smith’s Hall and is fully in line with its brethren.

Stockton Parlor No. 7 has the Hale build- ing. Like the resideatsof the San Joaquin city the membere are ambitious and any one partaking of their good cheer willing- ly returns. The Amador parlors occupy Steinway Hall. Vallejo Parlor No. 77 has Chickering Hall and South San Francisco Parlor No. 157 has invaded with little sense of ven- eration the Supreme Cougt Department, where it is hail fellow well met. National Parlor has located in the Dennery resi- dence at Seventh and M streets and holds high jinks at all hours. Hesperian Parlor No. 137 holds its clambakes in Atkinson College and Olympus Parlor No. 180 has carried the Mansion House by storm. National Parlor No. 118 has turned the Supervisors’ rooms in the Hall of Records into a place of revelry by day and night. Bay City Parlor No. 104 has Superior Court Department 2. Niantic Parlor No. 105 has captured the beautiful rooms of the Bureau of Highways and the weary tramp of the order is accorded a hearty welcome. Pre- cita Parlor No. 187 is located in Foresters’ Hall, and Friar Tuck's famous venison pastries are not a circumstance in com- parison with the hospitality extended to all comers by these descendants of the pioneers of early days. fa s e SAN DIEGO0'S CELEBRATION. The Festivities of Admission Day Already Commenced. SAN DIEGO, CaL., Sept. 8.—The Native Sons’ celebration of Admission Day really began here yesterday, when an excursion of 1500 people arrived from Los Angeles and interior points, followed by 2000 more {o-night. ‘The city is covered with decora- tions and lights, the center being a grand triumphal arch at D and Fourth streets, covered with electric lights. Soon after dark the carnival began, and the streets all night were filled with masked merry-makers. The light under the great grch and the plaza, where the City Guard Band gave an open-air concert was brilliant in the extreme. In the afternoon bicycle races at Coronado attracted large crowds. The races and winners were: One mile, novice, Al Bayer, 2:574; « half-mile -open, class B, Emil Ulbricht of Los Angeles, 1:14 4-5; mile open,. class A, W. B. Vaughn, San Diego, 2:13; mile ‘open, class B, Ulbricht, 2:35; half-mile open, class ‘A, Vaughn, 1:08; mile tandem, class A, Edwards and Hannahs, San Diego, 2:36; five-mile lap, class A, Vaughn, 15:50 1-5. Vaughn was the hero of the day, and experienced men predict a great future for him. / To-morrow there will be concerts, ex-— cursions, etc., and a big celebration. At- tractions of various kinds have been pro- vided for the entertainment of visitors for the entire week. ADMISSION DAY AT GILROX. Preparations for a Big Firemen’s Cele- bration To-Day. GILROY, CAL., Sept. 8.—The town is in holiday dress to welcome the many thou- sand visitors who are coming to celebrate Admission day in Gilroy. Every business house on Monterey street has been decorated. Men were busily en- gaged by day and night completing the decorations, which are very elaborate and are the cause of many flattering comments. The local fire department, headed by the drum corps, marched to the depot to meet the Veteran Volunteer Firemen of San Continued on Secgnd Page, IGNORED A WARNINC. Osceola Mine Workmen Brought Death Upon Themselves. THIRTY-FIVE PERISHED Bodies Cannot Be Recovered Until the Flames are Extinguished. TWENTY FAMILIES DESTITUTE Detalls of the Horror Which Cost the Lives of Nearly Two- Score Men. HOUGHTON, Mich., Sept. 8.—It is now positively known that thirty-five men are entombed in the Osceola mine, and their bodies cannot be recovered until the fire is entirely extinguisbed, which may not be for months. It is the opinion of some of the oldest officials of the mine that the fire was the work of an incendiary. The saddest feature ot the disaster is that all of the doomed men might have escaped had they heeded the warnings of Captain Edwards, who was the first person to detect the existence of fire. He dis- patched messengers to every slope where miners were known to be working, but as the mine is not heavily timbered except in the shafts the idea of serious danger was scouted. By going a round-about way the last men who were in the lower level of No.4 shaft might have escaped, but they preferred a shorter route of ascent, and when they got up to the eighteenth level found themselves cut off. Some passed into latter drifts expecting to reach other shafts. Captain - White descended with Anton Secysik, who said he had left his father in the level, but. Secysik lost his head and finding him unmanageable, White aban- doned him to his fate and reached the sur- face in safety. He was the only one of the party in No. 4 shaft to escape. He reported that trimmers had offerred to carry one of the drill boys to the surface, but the boy was so frightened that he refused to move and was left to perish. Additional names of missing men are: A. Winzia, Andrew Ross, Stephen Byth- bere, joseph Slutta, Isaac Harvey. Two Austrian trimmers, names un- known, are missing. Twenty of the thirty- five are married men and most of them have large families. The opening at the surface of the burn- ing shaft of the mine has been rendered aittight by a covering of heavy timber covered with securely packed dirt. The next shaft north has been similarly cov- ered and the smoke from the burning timber in No. 4 shaft and the drifts adjoin- ing is now rolling out in dense volumes from No. 4 shaft, several hundred feet to the south. Owing to the sealing of No.3 shaft, it is impossible to judge whether the fire is making headway or abating. The only precedents from which the probable direction of the fire can be guessed are gupplied by the three big fires which have ravaged the Calumet and Hecla mines.

Hearty, healthy whole- someness is better than mere beauty of features.

If there is a drain on the system and strength, the record of it will show in the face. If there is nerve naggin, “‘bearing-down”’ pains, dragging an pulling at the most sensitive organs in a woman’s body, the face will show it. Abused nerves draw lines of care and worry on the face. Nervous prostration writes its warning on the face long before it comes. Sleeplessness, nervousness and debilitating drains make more wrinkles than age. Nine-tenths of the sickness of women comes from some derangement of organs distinctly feminine. Nine-tenths of this sickness can be cured and avoided by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. ‘There is nothing miraculous about the * Favorite Prescription ’—nothing super- natural. It is the result of rational thought and study applied to medicine. It has been prescribed by Dr. Pierce for over 30 years. It has made thousands of women healthy and hnpfp v, and has ‘brought joy to thousands of homes. In “female weakness” it acts directly and strongly in healing and strengthen- ing the parts that are most severely tried. It clears out impurities and promotes regularity at all times.
