Pasadena Residents Encountering a Wave of Moral Ref PASADENA, CaL., 8 As a coun- ter attraction to the M. E. Conference Pasadena is being treated at this time with a great wave of moral reform, origi- nating with the members of W.C. T. U. and L O. G. T. and under the auspices, for the most part, of the M. E. church, which has ra church services very con- siderable sums of money to carry on the work, being seemingly desirous of washing nen in public upon this THEIR Pasadena’s dir g the liquor ordinance, and whos Is have been in progress during the past week, has been followed by the arrest to- of two men for keep- ing gambling-places (all that could be found here), and fifty half-grown hood- lums for participaung in a percentage game. Al this is an unsavory expose at this time, and suggests to visitors the idea that Pasadena is a hotbed of vice and in- iquity, while in truth Pasadena is one of the most moral, quiet and peaceable abid- on ing-places v the face of the earth. Local pay severely condemning the methods pursued, and the better class of citizens prophecy that the tyrannicai despotism of fanatical cranks will bring about a reaction in Pasadena which will end in high license. The public pulse is at fever heat; the present sitnation is the general topic of conversation, and the only outcome of the attempt at reform thus far is to arouse antagonism and sow discord. ATHLETIC CLUB QU ARRELS. Proposition to Throw a Match Makes Trouble at Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Sept. 26.—There was no exhibition at the Angel City Ath- letic Club rooms this evening. In fact, there is some doubt as to whether there will ever be any more contests before that club. Thewhole difficulty has been brought about by a proposition Fred Bogan made to George Arbuckle, the backer of Jack Frazier, to throw his mateh with Frazier and allow the latter to win. Arbuckle was to bet $600 or §700 on Frazier with Fox and Kellerman, Bogan's backers, and aiter the money had been won, Bogan was to receive half of it for Eermi!ling himself to be whipped. Ar- uckle did not expose the proposition to the directors of the club until the match bad been declared off. KEverybody was greatly surprised, and more particularly Mesirs Fox and Kellerman, who had had the utmost faith in. Bogan, ! on Saturday. charges against Bogan are not disproved it may result in the disrnption of the club. Already some members haue resigned. It seems strange to them that a square fight cannot be put up in this city. - e BRUTAL ASSAULT. H. A. Lowell Attacked by a Barkeeper at ZLos Angeles. LOS ANGELES, Car., Sept. 26.—C. M. Pete a bartender, was arrested this morning at the instance of H. A. Lowell, who charges him with assault with a deadly weapon. According to the state- ment of Lowell, the assault was a most brutal and cowardly affair. He states that in company with a friend he went into a salgon on South Main street, near Winston, formerly the Senate, and called for a glass of beer. He was standing at the bar when a drinken man challenged him to fight. The trouble was easily adjusted and Lowell stepped to the telephone, he saye, to order a gurney, when, without the least rovocation, the bartender came from be- iind the bar and struck him with a piece of leadpipe about eighteen inches long, felling him to the floor. Peters was arraigned before Justice Mor- to furnish bail to the rison and ordere amount of $1000. y AFFRAY AT SANTA MARIA. Thomas Hanley Seriously Shot by J. Brugge. SANTA MARIA, CaL., Sept. 26.—An at- tempted murder occurred to-day about a mile and a half from here wherein Thomas Hanley, an old resident, was the victim. The assault'was committed by J. Brugge, a hired man. He fired at the old man with a double-barreled shotgun while Han- ley was doing some repairing around the house. The first shot blew his right shoul- der off and the second missed him. Han- ley then ran across to a neighboring ranch and was brought to town. Officer Klink was-sehit after the murderer, who was cap- tured and *brought to jail. Threats of lynching were induliged in, as the old man was very quiet and inoffensive, while Bragge has a very bad reputation. The latter is the brother of the murderer who recently escaped from the Santa Rosa jail. It is thought that Brugge was after the old man Hanley’s money. Hanley is ex- pected to live. The two men have had several quarrels before. SEATILE COUNTERFEITERS Jake Terry, a Cowboy, and His Accomplice, David Dixon, in Custody. One an Ex-Convict and Member of the Seattle Police Department. SEATTLE, Wash., Sept: 26.—A notori- ous cowboy, Jake Terry, and an accom- plice named David Dixon are under arrest, the former in this city, charged with coun- terfeiting. A complete and costly outfit was found by Deputy United States Mar- shals, who apprehended the law-breakers, in the possession of the accused. For several months the small townsin Snohomish and other counties bordering on the British Columbia line have been flooded with spurious coins and the Fed- eral officers are contfident that they have apprehended the men responsible for the work. Terry is an ex-convict and was formerly a member of the police department of this city. His accomplice, Dixon, is in jail at Everett., The coins found in_possession of Terry are very clever imitations of genuine silver money: FRANCISCO. Stockton’s ‘High School Athletes to Com- pete for the Interschiolastic.” .

Ormandy Pleads Guilty and His Wife . Goes Clear. L0S ANGELES, CaLn., Sept. 26.—Mrs, M. V. Ormandy was acquitted in the United States District Court this morning of a charge of passing counterfeit coin. It was shown that though her husband was engaged in the manufacture of spurious | coin in the same house, yet they occupied different rooms, and the husband kept his room locked and the wife never went into it. Another indictment charging her with having in her possession molds of coin was dismissed. The husband of the woman, J. Ormandy, pleaded guilty and will be sentenced Monday. There are | three indictments against him, all con- necting him_with the manufacture and possession of counterfeit coin. AUN- DOWN AT VACAVLLE, Josh Rust and a Boy Named De Haven Injured by a Train. Their Horses Took Fright and Ran in Front of an En- < gine. VACAVILLE, CarL., Sept. 26.—Quite a serious accident occurred at Elmira about 4 o'clock this afternoon. As the engine of the Vacaville train was backing down to the train -a wagon occupied by Josh Rust and two boys was near the crossing. The horses became frightened and ran on to the crossing. Thinking they could save themselves, the occupants of the wagopn jumped out, Mr. Rust and one of the boys, about 16 years old, named De Haven, falling on the track. The engine came upon them, injuring the De Haven boy so that one arm had to be amputated at the shoulder, the other | above the elbow. His wounds may prove fatal. Rust had one finger taken off, his head cut, and it is thought he is internally. injured. Hé will probably recover. it s OREGON M. E. CUNFERENCE. Women Will Be Admitied as Ministerial Delegates. PORTLAND, Og., Sept. 26.—At to-day’s session of the Oregon Methodist Episcopal conference delegates voted unanimously to change the reading of a restrictive rule re- garding the ministerial delegates to the General Conference by striking out ‘‘male members only” and making it read, *‘Delegates ‘may be men or women.” The delegates will be elected to-morrow. Rose- burg was selected as the place of holding Ii these | the conference next jyear. T d AT MISSION SANJOSE New Hall of the Ancient Order of United Workmen. BUILT BY NATIVE SONS. Some Striking Features of the Old Pioneer Architecture Displayed. GRAND OPENING NIGHT BALL. The Seventeenth Anniversary of the Lodges to Be Very Prop- erly Celebrated. MISSION SAN JOSE, CaL., Sept. 26.— Tbe Ancient Order of United Workmen's new hall, the first of the order in this county, will be formally opened to-morrow night, the seventeenth anniversary of the order in this town. For seventeen years the Mission San Jose Lodge has gradually grown and all that time it has held its lodge meetings and entertainments in a rented hall lacking many of the conveniences so acceptable to fraternal societies. About a year ago the members concluded that it would be a wise move to build a hall that would be their own. The idea became popular, and the necessary encouragement and coin were soon on hand. There is still a little outside ornamental work to be done, but the new hall is now ‘available for all the purposes for which it was built. Very few of the lodges of the Ancient Order of United Workmen have lodgerooms of their own and the Mission lodge acknowledges that it is rather proud of its own enterprise. The outline is simple, with a tinge of the old mission style aboutthe cornice and roof. The projections at the sidesof the main entrance, with tile-clad roof, are stronger features of the same style. The interior is very pleasing, all the large rooms being elegantly decorated, conven- iently arranzed and well lighted. were drawn by A. L. Sun- ect, and the contract as a whole was let to James W. Turner. Both architect and contractor are local work- men and natives of the Mission, and much satisfaction has been expressed with their work. The dedicatory services were held two weeks ago, when the members of the Grand Lodge were present. To-morrow the Workmen and their ladies will for- mally open: the new hall with a grand ball. The board of directors of the new building are James Stanley (president), S. Ehrman, Thomas Bedard, H. Dusterberry and John Coffaney. SANTA' ROSA SENSATION Starkey, the Stabber, Fails to Show Up in the Court. His Bond Is Forfeited and a Bench Warrant Issued by Judge Crawford. SANTA ROSA, CaL., Sept. 26.—A sensa. tional phase was put in the case of the People vs. G. W. Starkey of Petaluma, which came up in court here Thursday. It was caused by a peremptory oruer issued by Judge Crawford for a bench warrant for Starkey. % Starkey was accused of stabbing a man named Mahew, also of Petaluma. He was charged with an assault with a deadly weapon 2nd when arrested was taken before Justice Scudder, who fixed his bail at $500 and released him on his own recogniz- | ance. He failed to appear on September | 16, when his preliminary examination was | to have been held, and it was continued to | September 23, when he again failed to { appear. ; | 'he matter came up in Judge Crawford’s | court Thursday ard he again failed to ap- | peared that day, and afterward a search was made, but no trace of him could be found. As he had been paid off 1t was thought he bad gone to some other locality. It seems, however, that he had followed a hunter’s trail to the top of the mountain between the Sonoma and Napa valleys directly from the home. He stuck his cane near the trail with a handkerchief upon it in which were the strange letters he wrote. He then went to a bald peak near by where there were only three or four pine trees, made a bed of brush, upon which he lay down and took the quick-acting dose of poison which ended his life. The body when found the other day rested on the back, the hatsulled over the eyes, which bad not been disturbed, The body had dried up considerably, but no animal or bird of any kind had dis turbed it in its long exposure. The body was buried, as he requested, where found and a large stone placed over it. Altogether it is quite a remarkable suicide. Those who knew the man believe he bad a secret and at some time in his life haa been more than he seemed. T RIVERSIDE RAISINS. Picking Has Commenced Though Not on an Extensive Scale. RIVERSIDE, Car., Sept. 25.— Raisin grape picking has commenced, thought not on a very extensive scale as yet. The crop this season is only medium in quantity, bat good in quality. The present warm weather is very wel- come to grape-growers, for it is just this kind of weather thatis needed to ripen and sweeten the fruit. Several weeks of ood warm weather will be welcomed now Yy grape men as it is reqaired to insure a proper curing of the raisins. The raisin crop of this city i§ not near as large now as a few years ago, owing to the fect that many vineyards have been up- rooted, yet this valley will have many car- loads to ship. N R . OCEAN WAVE COLLISION. Examination Into the Cause in Progress at Portland. PORTLAND, Og., Sept. 26. — United States Inspectors of Steamboats Edwards and McDermott are conducting an investi- gation into the collision between the Ocean Wave and the yawl Ranier, which was run dewn on the Columbia River on tlie night of August 18 and by which two lives were lost. There is a large attendance at the exam- ination, and on the second day of the in- quiry a mass of evidence was taken. It is evident that civil proceedings for damages against the Ocean Wave Company will fol- low & conclusion adverse to the steamer. The testimony adduced showed that at the time of the accident the yawl was ‘mot showing lighis. IT THUNDERED LONG Aco, An Ancient Spanish 12- Pounder Abandoned to Sands and Tides. Over a Hundred Years Ago It Fired ‘the First Salute Heard on the Bay. An old bronze cannon of Spanish make lies on the beach at Alameda Paint half sunken in the sand. Its cumbersome car- riage has been stolen or has rotted away. The tide buries it continually deeper, and soon if left there to the effacement of the sea it will be lost to sight and to memory. And yet this particular cannon, with- out doubt, was one of the two that rang out across the bay the first artillery salute that the bay ever heard. This salvo was fired in September, 1776, precisely 119 years ago. It was to celebrate the comple- jon of the Presidio, on which the soldiers of Moraga bad been working nearly a year. Just beyond the point was anchored the ship San Carlos—first to enter between the pillared gates of San Francisco Bay—and her guns answered the uproar from the land. The San Carloslbrought along with the | supplies from the Presidio at Monterey two cannon. These were placed on the ramparts of the fort that lay next to our present Presidio on the western side. Later the San Carlos brought six more guns of larger caliber. These were for the Castillo de San Joaquin, and they now oc- cupy prominent places at Fort Mason where the old relics stand pointing across | the water like veterans in their dotage. They would be useless for defense, but they are martial and picturesque monu- ments of the old Spanish days. They are the marks of the foundation-stone of San Franciseo's history. In the Presidio there is now only ene piece of Spanish ordnance. “Its com- panion is across the bily behind a wood- pile where the high tide covers it. When and how the gun was taken from THE OLD SPANISH GUN ABANDONED ON THE BEACH AT POINT ALAMEDA. ear. Judge Crawford ordered that the ond be forfeited and that a bench warrant be issued for his arrest. ‘What has become of Starkey is the ques- tion that is agitating the minds of a good many who have been watching the case, Some say that he has not been seen around Petaluma for some time and entertain the belief that he has fled from the couhtry. The case attracted great attention when it commenced and set all Petaluma people talking. cia g L THE GLEN ELLEN SUICIDE. Body of Remee, the Missing Man, Found on a Bald Peak. SANTA ROSA, Car., Sept. 26.—Judge Overton has returned from the Glen Ellen Home, of which he is a director, and gives some further particulars of the suicide of Remee. Remee had been employed at the home about a year. He was a Frenchman, who had evidentiy received a superior edu- cation and was an all-around useful man. He was specially well up in chemistry. Last month he left the home :~m£y told some persons there they would never see him again as- he contemplated suicide. They did not pay much attention to him as they supposed he was- joking.. He disap- its old stand isa matter of speculation. It is thought, however, that several years ago Captain Zalinski, who was then evolv- inE designs for his dynamite gun had it taken from one of the forts to Alameda Point, and used it for experimental pur- oses. Guns that it stood beside a hun- red years ago now occupy places of honor. Itis forgotten. The North Pacific Coast Railroad runs within twenty feet of the place where it lies, and the labor of trans- ferring it to the place from which it was taken would be very shght. ————————— STBMI).ED SEALERS.

PORLAND, Or., Sept. 26.—The jourteen members of the crew of the confiscated sealing schooner Rosie Olsen have appealed to the Federal court to see that they get their wages.

If There Was a Doubt, Rosebud Convinced Skeptics She Could Run a Mile. Frank Taylor is daily expecting the arrival of Happy Day, Cicéro, My Luck, a pony named Duke, recently purchased by Sam Hildreth. The horses leit New York on the 12th of the present month. By the steamship Alameda that arrived yes- terday from Australia, the well-known turf- man F. de B. Lopez was in receiptof several ad- ditions to fhis Merriwe stock farmstud, situ- ated near Pleasanton. Four finely bred brood- mares and four young fillies, the latter the get of First Water, a son of Fireworks, were brought up in echarge of his son, H. 8. de §. Lopez. The horses of J. G. Brown & Co. that arrived in Sacramento from the East prior to the State Fair came down from the Capital City yester- day and are now quartered at the track. Their owners, the popular horsemen, Galen Brown and John Arkenburg, were busy all day renew- ing old acquaintances. There are nine horses in the string, including the crack sprinter, Libertine, with a mile record of1:38 4-5. The othersin the lot are Tres chery, Uncertainty, Claude Hill, Princess Rose 11, Moran,Wyoming, Buccaneer and a chestnut colt by Strathmore, dam Zo0zoo. Macklin, the clever colored light- weight, who was seen in the saddle at Sacra- mento, comes with the stable. It is only of late that the majority of horse- men have learned the advantage of taking their horses out to the ocean beach and gallop- ing them in the salt water. So many horses that have undergone the ‘“beach work' have been returned winners of late that now there is & general scramble among trainers to secure stabling quarters on the edge of the Pacific. The well-known trainer, Frank Taylor, was one of the first to grasp the situation, and the gray horse, Sir Richard, a pronounced cripple, has clearly demoustrated the beneficial results of training there. Walt Viveli, perhaps the first at the game, is snugly enscounced in snug quarters a short distance from the water's edge with Articus, Charles A, and the other horses of his string. The well-known veterinary sur- geon, Dr. Masorero, has plans drawn up for 200 -stalls to be constructed well up on the beach below the Ocean House, sixty-four of which are now well on toward completion. He is also having made a covered track one- eighth of a mile in length to walk the horses during the rainy weather, the foundation being clay with & covering of tanbark. These should be ample to shelter all the ‘‘suspicious” horsesin the country. With fields of but six to pick from in the first two races yesterday, and four each in the remaining three races on the card, the talent wended their way- out-to the track, fully prepared to enjoy another day’s sport at the wily bookies’ expen: They said guessing the winners was “just like eetting money from home,” but at even- tide there was a different tale to tell. A favorite started the ball rolling all right in the opening race, but thereaiter matters were decidedly mixed, until summing u at the end of the day, the situation stood, two_ favorites, one second choice, a third choice and an outsider, and the pencilers had the long end of it. The first race, five and a half furlongs, for horses that had labered along and néver had the pleasure of hearing their names called first during the year 1895, was taken by Frank Phillips’ selling glater Portugal, backed from 4 to 5 to 1 to who was bard rigden the greater nortion ear-olds—Mabel T 109, Ruinart 112, Rejected 106; Lad Valiente 107, Bill M- Closkey 151, Lowry 0’Connor 109, Von Dunk 104, Phyllis101, Little Flush Aliy 104, Decision 104, Marigold colt 112, Rhaetia 104.

The general sonvention of the Pmtcs.mnt Fpiscopal churih meets at Minneapolis in trieninial sessiop on the second da Oetober.

Towell of Los An: and Judge Winder There will be br t before conven- tion three important matters, tv f which are of general intercu(.und one bearing di- rectly on the California diocese. The most ptominent matter to be de- cided yn is “the proposed revision of the constitution of the Protestan scopal hurch.” Next is the division of the dio- ese of this State’ into a northern and southern diocese. The question of div a inte two dioceses has Jong been discussed by the leading members of the church here, and at the last annual convention at Los Angeles, during the month of M. it was unanimously decided to divide the State, thus lightening the labor of the Bishops. Before this can take effect, hqwever, both houses of the general convention must pass upon it. z A similar case will be considered regard- ing the dioc of M land.

Bishop Paret, now residing in Baltimore, will probably be transferred tc Washington.

Clacquer, a 12 to 1 shot,. tried to make a runaway race of it, and had Favory not been in the race would have succeeded. The latter, second choice, collared him about fifty yards from the wire and won by a length in 1:15. Nor- mandie finished third. Rosebud struck another soft spot in the mile handicap. Having shown herself to be a mare of some class, she was handled with kid gloves by the handicapper, who let herin with 95 pounds in the saddle. Going to the post 7 to 10, she ran undera “choEe" all the way and, never relinquish- ing the lead, won looking backward in 1:4137. Little Bob was second a couple of lengths before Ike L, both very ordinary performers. The fourth race was a mile selling dash, and was considered a good thing for War- rago, who was made a 4 to 5 favorite. Ad- die M, the second choice, went out and made the running until nearing the turn for home, when she tired out and gave way to the favorite. The latter appeared to be winuinf until Ledalia drew up on even terms, when in a wild drive she was beaten cut easily by a length in 1:4234. The last race was also a mile selling dash, for which imp. Ivy reigned favorite, opening at 3 to 5 and going to the post 4 to 5. The once erratic Lforven upset all cal- culations. Backed from 10 down to 6 Flynn went to the front when the flag sent them away, and running under restraint the entire distance passed the winning post a length and a half ahead of the fa- vorite, completing the route in 1:4214. Neilie G, well backed, finished last, Uncle Giles taking the short end of the purse.
