10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1895. BUCKLEY NOW IN SORE DISTRESS FGR COIN, Had to Borrow Cash to Make the Fight for O’Brien. THE REVIEW TO-NIGHT. Followers of the Ex-Boss to Assemble at the Occi- dental Club. DAGGETT AND M'NAB ALERT. The Plan of Campalgn Adopted to Defeat and Overthrow the Blind Boss. Democrats of San Francisco who have again consented to follow the leadershipof Buckley will gather at the Occidental Club to-night. From the talk that is going on one infers that the word has been passed | along the line for all the faithful to assem: ble, with a view of displaying Buckley | strength and awakening Buckley enthu- siasm. It is a sure thing that the Blind Boss, whose daring, whose strategy and whose strength in, the past impelled the | proudest of Democratic statesmen to cool managers are not in favor of taking any chances. Tuey have laid outa programme for the Deuprey committee of twenty-five, which was appointed by the last Demo- cratic municipal convention, to meet this evening and request Chairman Watkins to appoint twenty-five men to join the Deu- prey committee, thus creating a body of fifty Democrats to reorganize the party. It is on the programme for Watkins to ap- point—not for the committee to elect. There is to be one member appointed from each Assembly district, and then seven at large are to be named. Should this pro- gramme be carried out Buckley’s defeat will be disastrous to his followers. John Daggett of Siskiyou, the Superin- tendent of the Mint, is gtanding in with McNab, but with Congressman Maguire | and Warren English on his flank in Wash- ington and the attitude of Senator Stephen White somewhat doubtful, Daggett may not care to get too deep into local politics. He may need some of his patronage to make his own fight. John H. Wise, Collector of the Port, is not casting his political fortunes with the McNab wing of the Democratic party.

Chautauqua Lake is one of the most picturesque sheets of water to be found on thig continent, lying away up among the rugged hills of Western New York, more than 700 feet higher than Lane Erie, but seven miles distant. The lake is twenty.miles long with an average width of two miles, ahd its shores are lined with picturesque summer resorts, chief of which is Chautauqua itself. where every summer congregate thousands of students and pleasure-seekers, who come from all over the world. The summer schools at Chautauqua open July 1each year and continue uninterruptedly for two months. Instruction in every art and science under the sun is given by adepts, the Chautauqua managers literally ran- sacking the world for the best specialists. There are normal halls, a magnificent gym- nasium whose enrollment reaches each summer above 500, a beautiful children’s temple where every morning the little folks are instructed and entertained, a | museum filled with curios from all over the world,a park model of Palestine where daily lectures are given by recent travelers in the Holy Land, schools of theology presided over by the most noted theologians of the age, a splendidly equipped kindergarten; a girls’ outlook club and a boys’ congress, | wgare regular sessions are held, the incipi- ent statesmen assuming the names of act- ing Congressmen, and gravely discussing such questions as *‘Shall the United States | Annex Canada?’ and kindred topics. | There is a_school of languages where the foremost linfiuists of the world give in- | struction, schools of vphotograpby and | wood carving, sketch clubs, a business | college, a magnificent school of music, a Woman’s Club, presided over by Emily Huntington Miller. In fact, not a topic of | interest in the scientific or artistic world is | left out, and any man, woman or child | who visits. Chautauqua will be sure to fall | | into some niche exactly suited to hisneeds. | | There is an immense amphitheater which | | seats 6000 people where the general lectures | and entertainments are given three times | a day—forenoon, afternoon and evening. | The Chautauqua grounds, comprising hun- | | dreds of acres, are owned and controlled | absolutely by the Chautauqua Association, MILLER-LUX PARTITION, Proceedings Had Yesterday Regarding a Division of the Property. JUDGE SANDERSON'S ACTION. Forty-Three Tracts of Land Soid, Which Realized a Sum of Nearly $2,000,000. Another stage in the Miller & Lux matter was reached yesterday. The scene of operations was the office of the estate on California street. An action has been pending in Judge Banderson’s court and was originally brought by the executors of the will of Charles Lux, deceased, who were then his widow, Miranda W. Lux, and his stepson, Jesse 8. Potter, who was Mrs. Lux’s son by her first husband. In this action Mrs. Lux was also plaintiff in her individual capacity as devisee under her husband’s will, and the brothers, sisters and nephews of Charles Lux, who took, under his will, one-half of his property, were made nomi- nal defendants, though they were in reality plaintiffs, and had joined with the plaintiffs in demanding the relief, to ob- tain which the action was brought, to wit: The compelling of Henry Miller to account to the estate of Charles Lux for the part- nership assets and business which had been in his hands for seven vears from the date of Charles Lux's death up to the time their heels in his anteroom and await his | Berry, Assistant Treasurer; Will 8.

IS SAID TO BE FIGHTING BOSS BUCKLEY. pleasure for an interview, has again ap- peared on the scene of party politics, and will fight with his old-time desperation 4nd cunning to wrest the party machinery from Gayin McNab, John Daggett and ‘Max Popper. Had Buckley triumphed in the recent contest wherein O’Brien was defeated for chairman of the general committee he would have dispersed the old committee without much delay and created a newand smaller council to direct affairs. Theslate was already prepared fora small commit- tee whose members could be reiied upon to register the will of the dictator.. He planned to secure complete control in six weeks. Men who profess to know the true ins and outs of local politics, who get behind the scenes, so to speak, assert that Buck- ley is in desperate straits. Ina word, his barrel of coin is very nearly empty. 1t was full at one time—the time when John Boggs sought to preserve the auton- omy of Colusa County and when the Glenn boys wanted the county of Glenn on the map of California. It was fuil when pliant Supervisors deliv- ered street railroad franchises on the order of the boss. 1t was full when the Legisla- ture did Buckley’s bidding. It was full when the gas company, the water com- pany and the Southern Pacific Company permitted a golden stream to flow into the barrel. Since then there has teen a con- stant drain from the reservoir and the sources of supply have been diminished or tapped by a legion of smaller .bosses. The barrel is now empty and Buckley is & borrower. that with.all of his sagacity in politics “‘for the stuff,” he is lacking in business' sense a8 regards investment. His property near Livermore has never been productive. His City real estate has not been remunerative, and hebecame so hard up for ready money that he was compelled to borrow $3000 to make O'Brien’s fight for the chairmanship of the general committee. Buckley has been obliged to sustain heavy pecuniary expenses since his de- thronement. The flight to Carada and the tour of Europe cost a deal of ready coin. It was not alone the spending of cash {hat made the position so embarrass- ing as the cold fact that there was no welcome. In a financial sense things have gone on from bad to worse. Shrewdest of politicians know that nothing discredits a boss so much in the eyes of the rabble as the knowledge that their dictator is broke. He may be a moral delinquent or a social bankrupt, but that counts for nothing with the ‘“push’ as long asthe boss has the “dough.” Hence the report is spread that Buckley bas vast personal treasure— that his fortune is so large and his invest- ments so profitable that the spending of $15,000 or $20,000 in a little political skir- mish cuts no figure to speak of. To-night the old guard of Bucklev’s | army will be assembied for review. The situation is so critical that the boss must fight one more hard battle to get on the payroll of the corporations. The Demo- crats in the camp of Gavin McNab and John Daggett know this, and while they profess no alarm they cannot conceal con- cern lest some of the men on whom they count will fall down. They know that if Buckley once becomes intrenched in the Déuprey committee or the general com- mittee the fight of factions will have to be settled by the Democratic State Central Committee. Frank Gould, chairman of the State committee, is counted upon as so hostile to Buckley and Buckley political methods that be would not recognize the boss if the entire local machine was set up in the Occidental Club. Gavin McNab has the greatest faith in Chairman Gould’s fidelity to the cause of pure politics, and cannot conceive of any condition that would in- duce the Democratic State Central Com- taittes to acknowledge the return of Boss Buckley to power. Admitting that Gould #asy be as true as steel, the anti-Buckley Men who know him_best say | | Surveyor-General; John P. Dunn, Re- | ceiver; Frank McCoppin, Postmaster, and ! General P. F. Walsh, Pension Agent, all belonging to the Federal brigade, seem to concede that enough was done in the canse of pure politics when they were ap- pointed to office and will consequently keep out of the local arena. The name of every Democrat that at- | tends the Occidental Club meeting this | evening will be reported atonce to the headquarters of McNab and Daggett. The assertion is openly made that not one of them will be appointed on Watkins’ com- mittee of twenty-five. It is on the pro- -gramme thatonly anti-Buckley men of the truest kind can serve on the committee of reorganization. CHAUTAUQUAWORK BEGINS The Pacific Coast Has 6000 Students in the People’s College. | Winter Season Rsadings In This Popular and Unique Educational Movement. ‘With the beginning of October over 6000 students on the Pacific Coast commence | the required readings of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle for 1895-96. In this age of many reading clubs, social societies and literary circles none has re- | ceived the worid-wide recognition and ap- | preciation that has this Chautauqua idea, that originated in the fertile and active brain of its honored chancellor, Bishop John H. Vincent. England is copying it in her university extension methods, and the universities of the entire world have taken many a hint from this American Oxford, as it is sometimes styled. The Chautauqua system of reading is designed to give a college outiook. Itisa school at home—a school after a school; intended for busy people—for people in middle life who never enjoyed a college education; for people of wealth and leis- ure who do not know what to do with their time: for college-bred men and women who feel that they are growing rusty; for mothers who wish to keep step with their sons and daughtersin their uni- versity training; in short, for any one and every one who is looking for self-improve- ment. A large majority of the students are men and women in middle life who never enjoyed the advantage of a college training, but, by devoting a short time each day to home reading as laid down in the Chautauqua course, they gain an in- telligent outlook over the whole four years oi_the regular college course. In the terse language of its founder, Chautauqua is a sort of John the Baptist for the colleges, and its influence will probably be greater in the next generation than in this, in that it will awaken an ap- preciation and a longing for a higher edu- cation, which twenty-five years hence will make itself felt. ‘The Chautauqua reading circle was or- anized seventeen years ago at its present eadquarters, Chautaugua Lake, N. Y., and the following summer the California branch was established with headgquarters at Pacific Grove, Monterey. Since then fifty other Chautauqua assemblies have sprung up in the United States alone, five of these being on the Pacific Coast. . There are now over a quarter of & mil- ion readers in this literary and scientific circle, which has spanned the world. Japan has 3000 native readers, and not a country 1n the world but has its Chautau- qua rendinF circle. The Chautanqua idea is absolutely non-sectarian, its counselors including all denominations and creeds. One of the most flourishing circles is a Jewish one formed two years in Phila- delphia, and recently a Catholic Chautau- qua assembly, modeled after the alma mater at Chautaugua, N. Y., has been established on the shores of Lake Cham- plain, and every season during the session of summer schools at Chautauqua come fraternal greetings from the neighbor in the northeast corner of the same State. Every reader of the Chautauqua Circle is There are hundreds of handsome cottages | built by private parties subject to the rules and regulations of the association, a mag- nificent hotel athenmzim, miles and miles of boulenards for driving, beautiful parks elegantly laid out and scores of handsome public buildings for educational and busi- ness purposes. One of the handsomest private dwellings is that of Hon. Lewis MiIFer, father-in-law of Thomas A. Edison, the Menlo Park wizard, and each summer Mrs. Edisonand her little son and daughter pass the season | here. Mr. Miller is the president of the Chautauqua_ Association and its chief, financier. He has been literally the father of this Chautauqua enterprise since its be- ginning. Of all the many departments of study | offered at the Chautauqua summer schools it is easy to see that the entire plan clus- | ters round the pet department and the one which reaches throughout the entire year —the Literary and Scientific Circle—whose | many members regard Chautauqua, N. as the gracious all-mother.to whom they come home once a year for fresh inspira- tion. The course of lectures and the various branches of study taken up at the assembly correspond with the studies to be pursued during the year in the circie. 1f English literature, history and_art are to be taken up in the circle special refer- ence to this is observed in the preparation of the Chautauqua course of lectures. HEenRIETTA B. FREEMAN. OFFICIAL RED TAPE. The Result of a Complaint Concerning Presidio Laborers. Several weeks ago people interested in | labor unions called the attention of Labor | Commissioner Fitzgerald to the fact that | laborers at work on the new Presidio bar- racks were obliged to work more than eight hours a day. This being a Federal institution instead of a State affair, the Labor Commissioner referred the matter t6 United States Attorney H. S. Foote, :ho in turn submitted it to Colonel Gra- am. The latter passed it over to a lieutenant at the Presidio, who gave it to a subordi- nate to inyestigate. The latter locked up the law in the matter and found that while the statutes stipulate eight hours as a day’s work, there was nothirg said about restricting the time for labor to eight hours on contract work. However, for all overtime double wages will be paid, and so the matter stood. Laborers at the Presidio may have to work over eight hours, but they can secure double wages for all overtime. AN OLD MAN'S SUIOIDE. " Body of Justus Held of Oakland Found in the Ocean. The body of an old man—probably 60 years of age—was found by A. Berkley floating off the Seal Rock House at the Ocean Beach late yesterday afternoon. During the night it was identifiea as that of Justus Held, a German property- owner of Oakland, who had been suffering from brain troubles, and despondency in conse?nence for some time,and had fre- quently told his wife and Dr. Kuckein that he would commit suicide. 1t is sup- posed he went out to the beach and jumped into the water, Held resided at 1666 Telegraph avenue, Oakland. He leaves one son, married, be- sides his widow. ————— THE OLABROUGH WILL. A 8200,000 Estate for Relatives Here and in England. John P. Clabrough, who died last Satur- day, left a $200,000 estate, which, by will, is bequeathed as follows: .

As a partial relief in this action Judge Sanderson ordered that partition be made of certain tracts of land belonging to the partnershig of Miller & Lux, and which are situated in half a dozen or more coun- ties in this State. To accomplish this par- tition the court appointed three commis- sioners, who were John T. Porter of Wat- sonville, J. C. Franks, formerly United States Marshal, and H. Mayo Newhall of this City. These commissioners commenced the performance of their duties early last vear, and about July of this year they filed an elaborate report accompanied by very extensive maps, twenty or thirty in num- ber, showing both by description and de- lineation upon the maps the result of their Inbors in partition. Of course, where lands of such variety in location and value and of such vast extent as some of the tracts involved were to be divided, an absolutely accurate division in kind could not we{l be made. It was therefore part of the order of the court that after the commissioners had finished their lavors and presented their report the par- ties should meet at a time and place to be by themselves selected, in order to equalize by their own acts as far as might be what- ever inequalities might exist in the work of the commissioners. % The scheme of equalization was this:} As each separate tract of land subdivided was called by the referee the parties were at liberty to bid against each other for the rrivilege of choosing which of the two halves made by the partition they would take. The parties met accordingly at the oftice of Miller & Lux, California street, yesterday. There were present Thomas B. Bishop of the firm of Garber, Boalt & Bishop, representing the plaintiffs in the action; D. M. Delmas and James H. Camp- bell, representing the brothers, sisters and nephews of Charles Lux, who in the pro- ceedings have been generally called the German heirs and who take one-half of the estate uncer the will. Eugene Garber represented the defendant, Henry Milter. Besides these counsel Henry Miller and Henry Lux, a brother of the deceased, Jesse S. Potter, whose powers as the lasc surviving executor of the will of Charles Lux have been lately suspended by the Superior Court of San Mateo County on an nllegnion of his unfitness to discharge the duties of that office, and a number of clerks and stenographers. At 10 o’clock the bidding commenced, and it was carried on until 3 in the after- noon. The diversity in the bids showed the great divergence of opinion that may obtain in matters of this character, as the amounts &;id for choice ranged from $50 to over $100,000. About forty-three different tracts were disposed of 1n this way. They were mainly located in San Francis Santa Clara, Monterey, Fresno, Madera and Alameda counties. The total value of the tracts treated yesterday was about $2,000,000. A curious featurein yesterday’s proceed- ings was the small advance in bidding made on each occasion by the defendant’s side. Each time a bid was made the Miller contingent raised it by as smalla sum as or $10, indicating a desire to shave things pretty closely. Upon seeing this Mr, Delmas put forward a proposition that the parties agree not to bid below a $50 raise; but this proposition was re- Jjected by Eugene Garber, representing Henry Miller, the defendant. TosAcco Insomyia—Many brain-workers suffer from inability to sleep. This is fre- quently met with among those who work late at night. The sufferers complain that they feel most lively just when the time for retiring has come, and that a long period of restlessness precedes a troubled slumber from which the slightest noise awakens them. This is very often caused almost entirely by ‘over-indulgence in to- bacco. They smoke just before going to bed, ignorant of the fact thatnot only may tobacco prevent sleep temporarily, but that it may render. it s deep, and conse- quently less refreshing. A grave résponsi- bility attaches to those who lightly seek to relieve a symptom which is really a warn- ing bf recourse to a dangerous palliative. The inability to sleep is often merely the outcome of an unnatural mode of life, and if this be corrected the disability disap- pears of itself. Men who work late are commonly addicted to the tobacco habit. To them tobacco is not a relaxation after a day’s work, but a nerve stimulant which enables them to accomplish tasks which would otherwise be difficult of accomplish- ment. When the mouth becomes dry al- cohol in some form or other is resorted to as a fillip to enable the smoker to_tolerate still another cigar or two. Under these circumstances tobacco acts as a cerebral irritant, and interferes with the vaso- motor centars of the brain to such an ex- tent that the vessels are unable to adjust themselves forthwith to the condition re- %lured for healthy and untroubled sleep. scretion in tobacco use would save many from thisdistressing condition of chronic insomnia. Smoking early in the day should be discountenanced. and it is e?ual]y undesirable within an hour or so of retiring to rest. The best remedy for the tobacco habit short of total abstention is to take a short walk in the open air after the last pipe. Under no circum- stances should drugs be used for this form of nocturnal restlessness. OUR FIRE. DEPARTAIENT, It Is Viewed Through French Eyes and Favorably Com- mented Upon. The Commissioners From France Do Not Approve of 'Men Not Permanently Employed. The Fire Department of San Francisco was seen through French eyes yesterday. The visitors were Colonel Viregault, Major Kerbs and Captain Cordier of the French army, assigned to duty in the Fire Battalion of Paris. These gentlemen, as has already been announced in THE Cary, were delegated by the French Govern- ment to visit the principal cities on the American continent for the:purpose of studying the various fire departments. At 10 o’clock in the forenoon, the offi- cials named and M. Posseli, Consul for France at this port, were met at the Grand Hotel by Chief Engineer Sullivan and As- sistant Chief Dougherty. After an intro- duction, the visitors expressed a desire to inspect the department, when Chief Salli- van, who, in anticipation of the event. had been sitting up nights studying French, replied in the suavest manner, “Avec plaisir, messieurs,” and when one of the visitors remarked, ‘“Ah, le Chef parle Francais,” the Chief excused himself from further conversation in' the language of France, and appealed to the Consul to act as interpreter for him. | The visitors were taken to the adjunct of the Fire Department, the Fire Patrol, where Captain Comstock explained the en- tire system to them. The captain then gave them ‘‘a hitchup” from the bunk- room and one from the floor. At thesound of the gong the horses started for their re- spective places, the men came down the sliding posts and in three and a half s*c- onds after the gong struck the horses took the first step toward leaving the house. The visitors, with one voice, exclaimed, “C’est magnifque. The ‘‘hitchup” from the floor was equally successful. After lunch they were again taken in charge by the Assistant Chief and con- dueted to engine 17, on Mint avenue, where they made a minute examination of the house, from sleeping-room to base- ment. 1n the latter they were shown an invention of the Assistant Chief for keeping a cellar free from water. In this bouse water sometimes flows into the cellar, and the floor isso arranged that it flows into a well. In thisisinserted a pipe connected with the house main. The other end of the pH)e is turned into the waste pipe con- nected with the sewer. When the water is allowed to flow below the point where the pipe is run into the well it produces a suc- tion that draws the water out of the well and empties it. A lamp, also the in- vention of the Assistant Chief, which throws a light 100 feet ahead. also inter- ested them very much. An exhibition of the method of using a | plain nozzle, and one which at will is con- vertible into an umbrella spray for the protection of the hoseman from heat, was watched with much interest. They were taken to engine-house 2 and then to truck- house 2 on Broadway, near Dupont street, where they were met by District Engineer Dolan, who explained to them the work- ings of the Hayes truck. When told that OUSTED FROM THE LODGE: Trial of the Suit of Dr. Ragan Against Foresters’ Court 7 Apollo. HARD FEELINGS DEVELOPED. Dr. Rottanzl Left the Lodge Meet- ing In Disgust on Account of the Actlon. “I have been led by the nose long enough by Chief Ranger Hart, and I don’t propose to submit to it any longer,” testi- fied C. J. Solc before Justice of the Peace Barry yesterday. It was in the suit of Dr. D. T. Ragan against Court Apollo Lodge Nos. 81 and 82, Ancient Order of Foresters, for services rendered. Dr. Ragan was the physician of the court, and under his contract was to receive $2 56 quarterly for the treatment .of eacl{ mem- ber. Some time in June a combination was formed against the doctor and he was ousted from his position. His quarterly p ayments were stopped. It was over these q\xarter#y ayments that the members of Apollo YLodge No. 82 disputed before Jus- tice of the Peace Barry yesterday. Forest- ers have differed in opinion before, but no court ever came s near to disruption over salaries and fraternal politics. Fraternal feeling over the matter had been simmering for some time before the meeting in which Dr. Ragan was ousted. Dr. Rottanzi and other zealous Foresters heard what wason the carpet and flocked to the meeting. What they heard there of themselves made their ears tingle. Solc was at the meeting with the rest. “Chief Ranger Hart said to me,’”” he testi- fied, “ “We'll have to fire Dr. Ragan.” The doctor never had any chance. Hart drummed up men to vote hisway in get- ting rid of him. Every time one of his IulFowers entered the lodgeroom he'd say, ‘Here comes u vote for me.’ “‘I’ve had enough of that kind of work. I’ve been led by the nose long enough by Chief Ranger Hart, and I don’t propose to stand it any longer.” According to the testimony Chief Ranger Hart was in the chair most of the session. ‘When the vote on ousting Dr. Ragan from his position was called Subchief Edward M. Forster was in the chair. The doctor claimed that the question was not carried by a two-thirds vote. Chief Ranger Hart jumped to the floor, so the doctor claimed, and called for another vote. He counted noses and announced that the motioy was carried by a vote of 29 to i7. Dr. Ragan objected to his count, but was ruled out of order. Then he appealed to the grand session of the lodge and the appeal was dismissed. Chief Ranger Hart claimed that Dr. Ragan was not attentive to his duties. Dr. Ragan produced balf a dozen witnesses to Jestify that he was zealous and con- scientious in looking after the health of the Foresters. Among them were Dr. C. T. Bower, Druggist W. W. Campbell and Louis Berger. Dr. T. A. Rottanzi told about his visit to the lodgeroom on the eventful evening. “‘Forster kept order while in the chair,” he testified. “Hart kept anything else. He said he was willing to meet any one inside or outside the meeting. He was ready to see the motion carried and to fire Dr. Ragan. He made personal remarks on the visitors who entered the lodgeroom I was among them, and took the matter personally on account of condition. Hart was very arbitrarv in what he did. It was not a court of Ameri- “can Foresters. I left the place in disgust.” There are a lot more witnesses still to be heard in the greenwood dispute, so the case went over to October FOR ADULTERATING MILE, ‘Warrants Against Vendors to Be Sworn Out This Morning. ‘Warrants will be served on the following parties to-day for selling adulterated milk: my physical this was the invention of a San Francisco California Milk Company (Ewell, Schafer UMBRELLA NOZZLE.

San Franciscans Show Their Ap- preciation of Professor Hunyon's Honest Methods and Demand ki Remedies and Will Take Ro Substitutes. It is simply wonderful, said Munyon's representative, to watch the growth of the public’s confidence in our new method of treating disease. About five years ago we bogan our first free distribution of Mun- yon's remedies. At thattime very few per- sons in the United States had ever heard the name before; but his honest, frank and fearless letter to the press demandinga public investigation of his claims opened their eyes to the fact that there was atleast one medical company in the world who had the honest conviction of the value of their remedies and pelieved that they had dis- covered positive cures for disease, and over 3,000,000 people have called at_tbe various newspaper offices in the principal cities to test his[])fl)nrnl offer of free distribution. The distribution just ended broughtover 20,000 people, who now know that Professor Munyon’s remedies eannot be surpassed or their curative qualities equaled. Where can you find a parallel to this wonderful confidence of the public in Munyon ? Curiosity may have prompted some, and others may have thought there was some- thing behind the liberal offer.
