Report on the Final Trial of the Battle- ship Indiana. WASBINGTON, D. C., April 14.—The ‘eport of the Board of Naval Officers ap- pointed to conduct the final or efficiency trial of the battleship Indiana has been re- ceived at the Navy Department.

The trial took place on the voyage between Port Royal, 8. C., and Norfolk, which the Indiana made in forty hours. Although run under natural draught and with four boilers only, she maintained an avarage speed of 1314 knots, | an excellent showing fora ship designed to run 15 knots under the best conditions. The horsevower developed was nearly 5000, There was very little roll, the maxi- mum beirg 20 degrees in a heavy cross-sea.

TACOMA, Wasg., April 14.—The Demo- cratic State Convention to-night adopted the following platform: Recognizing that honest men may differ on questions of party policy and principle we differ from the President upon the financial question. We commend the administration of President Cleveland as honest, able and fear- less, and we now reaffirm our unshaken con- | fidence in the integrity, Americanism and | patriotism of the great chief magistrate of the Nation. We believe in the Monroe doctrine, as in- terpreted by President Cleveland and his able Secretary of State, Richard Olney. We de- mand the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting for the intervention of any other nation.

SAUSALITO, Car, April 14.—The trouble in Sausalito is not yet ended by any means. The encounter between Creed and Brandes was the opening of bostilities. Before the election Creed sald that either he or Brandes would have to get out of the town or there would be trouble. Creed | Creed overwhelmingly defeated Brandes at the polls, so cither Brandes must take leave or await developments. Alfred Brandes is the night watchman in Sausalito and John E. Creed is the Marshal. The night watchman’s remuner- ation is obtainet§ by subscriptions froin the people on his route, and in view of the recent troubles many of his customers, it is said, are leaving him. Whether Creed intends to carry out his threat remains to be seen, but the people of Sausalito who know him say that he will. g the and. Among the election stories goin rounds is one on the Sausalito brass Itseems that Antone Lawrence, the day before election, hired the band to play when the result of the election was an- nounced. T.awrence was confident of being elected and so_had made arrangements accord- ingly. Lawrence was defeatea by just three votes. While the ballots were being counted at the Town Hall the members of the band were getting in trim to thunder forth the strains of country music in honor of Lawrence. Buttons were brightened, the tiny lamps that the members wear in | their hats on dress occasions were refilled and lighted, and neyer before had the boys appeared so well. At the risk of spoiling their uniforms they were going out in the fog to play for Lawrence. They assembled at their room 1n the basement of a local hotel and waited for the summons to march out and cele- brate. It never came. Fiedler had de- feated Lawrence by three v otes.

It Purchases a Grocery Store and Will Operate a Sawmill, BANTA CRUZ, CAL., April 14.—That the Labor Kxchange Association means business and is doing business is no longer a matter of speculation, for yesterday Santa Cruz Branch No. 106 bought the stock of groceries, provis- ionsand general merchandise of W. H. Crowe at 12 Pacific avenue, and that gro- cery is now being conducted under labor exchange methods. The committee that has the mill propo- sition in hand has received all the neces- sary machinery and tools, and in a week or so the sawmill near Soquel will be run- ning in full blast, with a force of from thirty to fifty men. There isin the timber tract owned by the exchange 169 acres, and it is estimated it will produce frem 3,000,- 000 to 5,000,000 feet of lumber. The shipments will not depend upon railroad transportation, as the port at Capitola is as near to the sawmill as is the railroad. e GRADING NEAR MERCED. Valley Road Constructo Rapid Progres MERCED, CaL., April 14.—Three large grading outfits have passed through this city within the past two days, bound for the surveyed line of the Valley road lying between Minturn and Madera and beyond. hey come from the completed work at the Tuolumne River, and are the outtit of the Grant Bros., which were used in grad- ing the road from Stockton out.

SANTA CRUZ, CaL, April 14.—Bert | Waterman was thrown from a buggy this afternoon, receiving injuries which will probably result in his death. Young Waterman and Levi Hanna, son of the late Captain Hanna, were riding in a buggy on the Soquel road, near Arana Gulch. The horse shied at a passing vehicle, throwing the young men to the ground. Waterman’s head struck a post, fracturing the skull. S Fresno’s Electrio Power. FRESNO, Car., Aprit 14.—The pumps at the city water works were to-day run by electricity for the first time. The new company, which is bringing the power from the San Joaquin River, thirty-five miles distant, has turned on the current.

This was her debut into Lnglish society. Both Lord and Lady Bennett while here devoted themselves to evangelistic work with great success. DOGS AND FISHES. A Valuable Canine Shot in the Presidio Reservation—Bass From San Diego. Fish Commissioner Babcock received a letter yesterday from Deputy Al Wilson, who is at present located near the great bass and pickerel lake in San Diego County with his companion, Cross. Wilson says that owing to the extreme cold weather of the past week it was utterly impossible for him to draw seines for bass. He arrived at the lake on the 9th inst., in the midst of a blinding snowstorm, and he imme- diately concluded that it would be very unwise on his part to attempt the capture of bass and pickerel until such time as the weather would permit. He is in hopes that an opportunity will soon permit of the capture of several fish which, on their arrival in this City, will be transported to Clear Lake, in Lake County. A handsome fox-terrier, the property of Mr. Martin, the manager of the Sharon estate, was shot and killed recently by a soldier at the Presidio. Mr. Martin was accompanied by his two favorite dogs while takinga short walk near the military reservation. Something attracted the at- tention of the cunines,and they unfor- tunately ran within the line, so to speak, and before their owner could reach them a soldier leveled his rifle at one and fired. The aim of the ‘blue coat proved deadly, and as he was about to aim at the secona dog its owner interfered and some warm exchanges of words followed. The soldier informed Mr. Martin that he was carrying out strict orders from General Graham and was obeying a command. Dog_ No. 2 was taken in charge and turned over to the Poundkeeper. This should serve as a warning to the owners of valuable dogs to steer clear of the Presidio when out for a constitutional with their canine charges. The Fly-casters’ Club_met last evenin, in the ¥lood building, Market street, an discussed at length the advisability of holding practice casting contests weekly on Stow Lake or some water where the conditions are favorable for exercise and sport. The club expects a large number of entries for its summer tournament. Entries for the Pacific Kenne! Club’s bench show, which will be held next month at the Pavilion, are being received, and judging from the interest that is being shown by fanciers in the show, success is bound to crown the efforts of the mana- gers. WIFE OF A PRESIDENT. Mrs. George Q. Cannon a Visitor in San Francisco. Prominent in the congregation of Latiter- Day Saints at Pythian Castle on Sunday afternoon was Mrs. Cannon, wife of Hon. George Q. Cannon, one of the first presi- dentsof the Mormon Church and formerly Delegate to Congress from Utah, and mother of United States Senator Frank J, Cannon of that infant State. She has been visiting her son, Hugh Cannon, in Nevada, and since February recuperatling her health in Los Angeles. She is spending a few_days with ber old iriend, Mrs. Sophia Kin§. at Alameda, and will leave this week for her home in Salt Lake City. Mrs. Cannon is a type of the Mormon mothers in Israel. She is a small woman of matronly figure and kindly face. There is nothing special in her appearance to distinguish her from the millions of good ‘wives and mothers in the land. But n;l;)on those who come within the radius of her personality she exerts the unconscious magnetism of a forceful intelligence and gentle nature. She is beioved by her peo- ple and is a veritable Lady Bountiful. NORMAL SCHOOLS OF CALIFORNIA, Boards of Trustees Meet in Joint Session at San Jose. PROGRESS OF TEE WORK Encouraging Reports Submitted by the Secretaries of the Institutions. MR. BUDD NAILS A CANARD. The Governor Proves That He Did Not Speak Disparagingly of San Jose Grounds. SAN JOSE, CAL., April 14.—A joint meeting of the boards of trustees of the State Normal schools of this city, Los An- geles and Chico convened atthe Normal School in this city this morning. The meeting was called to order by President Henry French of the San Jose board. The following members were present: San Jose board—President Henry French of | Ban Jose, Mrs. E.

Chipman of Red Bluft, Btate Superintenaent of Instruction S. T. Black; E. T. Piece, secretary of the Los Angeles board; R. F. Pennelil, secre- tary of the Chico board, and Miss Blasdel, secretary of the San Jose board, were aiso present. The principals’ reports were read and thoroughly discussed. The recommenda- tions that the present text-books be con- tinued were adopted. It was decided to leave it with the faculty at the several schools and their Boards of Trustees to graduates of high schools to complete the course. President Childs’ report for the thirty- third year says the raising of the standard of the school had the effect of increasing the enrollment, which is now 710 in the Normal department. This is attributed to school standards of the public schools have been raised. He reviews the work of is in a splendid condition, the past year being in many respects the best. It is also shown that, according to statistics, 800 new teachers are needed annually in California. Of this number the Normal schools furnish 225 and the rest are the re- sult of county examinations and immi- grations. Secretary Robert F. Pennell's report of the Chico school was of a very encourag- ing nature. It stated that the schoo! was niaand causing the demand for trained teachers to continually increase. Becretary E. T. Piece made an extenaed report of the Los Angeles school. In his review it appeared that the enrollment in 1804-95 was 475 and in 1895-96 498. Governor Budd was presentat the even- ing session of the joint board. The first business was the seiection of dates on on whick to hold the meetings of the various local boards. The Los Angeles meeting will be held May 27, Chico meet- ing June 2 and the San Jose meecting June 25. John Bidwell of Chico, T. P. Lukensand Henry French were appointed a commit- tee to suggest changes in the Normal School laws. One suggestion decided upon is that Normal School Trustees be put upon the same footing as trustees of insane asylums and penitentiaries in reference to the allowance of expenses made in the discbarge of duties in the service of the State. The interesting portion of the session was brought about in an informal way. It having been revorted that Professor Childs had quoted Governor Budd as referring to the San Jose Normal School grounds as a ranch, tue Governor took occasion to ask the professor when and where that state- ment bad been made by him. After being pinned down to the question, Professor Childs replied that he did not remember — NEW TO-DAY. Women exchange con- fidences about their own health and that of their husbands. A man’s physical well being is closely watched by a thoughtful wife. It is part of her duty in the world to keep him well. If she sees him running down, she should take measures to stop it. Very few men enjoy being sick. ‘hey won’t admit even to themselves that they are sick. They will go on losing flesh and vitality—working too hard—worrying too hard—taking little or no care of their health. Maybe they need only a little help to be made well. Maybe a good simple tonic is all they require. Maybe it is some- thing more serious. Whichever it is, it should be attended to. When a man gets really sick, his work stops. He can’t tend to business. He loses all he has previously gained. Actual want may stare him in the face. It doesn’t pay to get sick, or to stay sick. There’s no need of doing either. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery will prevent sickness. It isa blood helper and a flesh builder. It restores perfect diges- tion and insures perfect assimilation of the food. Itisa powerful enemy to germs and will search them out in all parts of the y, forcing their evacuation.

As I live by the pen I must say that one | of the most pleasant and affable gentlemen it has been my good fortune to meet po- | printer—a printer known far and wide on People had cold me of | Mr. Monahan, so that T had come prepared | to meet a good-natured man and was not at all embarrassed when he smilingly told | me what he thought of California, her products and her Barsaparilla. Said he: *On the subject of Sarsaparilla my opinion is fixed. While I have no reason to know or to say that other sarsaparillas are of no value, I have every reason to know and to say that Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla is of inestimable value, for not only have some of my relatives used it, but I have actually tried the Sarsaparilla and know its true value. It is a delicate matter for one to speak of the virtues of a proprietary rem- edy. Nevertheless, the truth stands in the bright light of reason and overcomes deli- cate feelings, for the truth is mighty, and the mighty truth is that Joy’s Sarsaparilia is made of California herbs and contains no deleterious mineral poisons. I am personally acquainted with a gentleman who suffered from violent headaches, and he suffered continuously, and perhaps would have been suffering now but that table Sarsaparilla, and so do I. It is a very pleasing remedy for women because it is not nasty to the taste and its effects are pleasant. In the spring of the year, when nature is at work renewing herself, he who desires to renew and make rich the blood can do no better than use the home remedy, Joy’s Vegetable Sarsapa- rilla.” As I left John Monahan, the printer, I | could not help but think what an abund- | ance of philosophic humor he possessed. | HENRY TILLMAN.
