MINISTER RESIDENT T0 GUATEMALA, Consul - General Grimaldi Promoted by the Itafian Government. f DR. PESCIA EONORED. Some Expressions of Opinion From the Local Italian Colony. A POPULAR APPOINTMENT. A. Sbarboro Says That He Is the Right Man in the Right Place. The Italian colony is in a happy frame of mind just now. Events of | the last few days seem to have ush- ered in an era of good feeling as evi-| denced by the grand banquet Wednesdny| night in honor of the retiring Consul- | General, Chevaljer Francesco Bruni Grim- 1 aldi, and the incoming of his successor, Dr. Joseph Pescia, as well as the expres- sions of satisfaction with the latter’s ap- pointment. Minister Grimaldi, when seen by n CaLr reporter, was busy with prepa- | rations on the eve of his departure. “I have been in the consulste abouta year and a half, and I have just received the appointment as Minister Resident to Guatemala. My sojourn here has been an enjoyable one and I shall always retain store the other man had disappeared. The man who wanted the room toid Vaissivie that he would call again about it and hur- ried awa; Thinking that something was wrong Vaissivie fooked into his safe, which he had leit open, and found that a steel box containing $66 was missing. He imniedi- ately notified Captain Gillen at the Seven- teenth-street station and gave the follow- ing descrintions of the men: No. 1, gbout 5 feet 8 inches, long nose, small light mustache, about 22 years of age, well dressed in light clothes and soft dark hat. No. 2, stout build, about 5 feet 6 inches, round, rough red face, mustache and whiskers, deep hole in chin, wore dark clothes, soft hat, about 34 years of age. A policeman had passed the store a minute or two before the two men enterea it, and they had evidently waited till he bad gone out of sight. POLICE COURT ACCOUNTS The Grand Jury Will Ask Judges to Keep a Record of All Fines Imposed. As a result of the delving of the Grand Jury’s expert intd the accounts of the Police Courts a recommendation will be made by the jury in its annual report that the present method of keeping the finan- cial accounts be materially changed. It was found that the Judges do not keep a record of the amounts of the fines they impose, and that should the clerk be inclined to be crooked he couid collect $20 as a fine when the Judge imposed that penalty, but only enter §10, ‘Ihe Judge, not having a record of the fine in the case, would probably fail to remember after a few days the amount, and the clerk cquld easily pocket the difference betweerr the real fine and the amount entered. The Judges will be expected to keep a record of every fine imposed that the same may be compared with the clerk’s accounts and with the treasury. WA WOMAN SHOULOVOTE By Her Healing Touch the Pool of Politics May Be Purified. If Men Are as Bad as They Paint Them- selves They Are Not Good Enough to Represent Women. While at Stanford University, attending the commencement evercises, I inquired how it happened that the new Professor Powers was invited to speak before the Woman’s Congress. I learned- that the secretary wrote Dr. Ross of the economics department, asking him to recommend some one. Dr. Ross thought it would be a nice thing to give the new professor a chance, so he asked him how he stood on woman suffrage. *‘I have no objections to it,” said Professor Powers, and therefore his name was sent to the secretary. The public knows the result. The professor learned one thing, at least, by his experi- ence. Iasked Dr. Jordan how the profes- s = i Dr. Joseph Pescia. pleasant recollections of it.”” In answer | to a question regarding the new consul he held up his hands in mock distress. | ““There, I don’t want to hear a word about | Dr. Pescia! Since I appointed him I have been overwhelmed with congratulations on it until I have what you Americans | call ‘that tired feeling.” Seriously, how- | ever, I will say that the doctor was ap- | ointed on authorization of the Italian i Government with the knowledge that he | would well fulfill the difticult and honor- | able guties of the position.”’ Consul-General Pescia is disposed to | bear his bonors modestly. | One [ “It was all a surprise to me, month ago I didn't know the Con- sul-General. When he deciited to resign he appointed me to fill the office till a suc- cessor should beappointed. I felt flatterea, | of course, at the compliment paid me, re- cognizing, as I do, that the position is 8 responsible as well as an honorable one, While ] am not especially versed in inter- national law I think I may safely say that I have an intimate acquaintance with the wants of the people whose interests have been committed to my charge by the Ital- ian Government. 1 shall endeavor to ad- rainster the duties of the office with the same care that I should devote to my pri- vate affairs; and it is my hope that my ad- ministration will be as satisfactory to the | Government as to my successor.” | Joseph C ris, president of the Italian Chamber of Commerce, a position second in importance to that of the consulate, speaking of the appointment, said: “Iam convinced it is the best choice the Consul-General could have made, for there is no better qualified man to per- form the duties of the position than Dr. Pescia, He is a man of wealth and liber- slity, and the large emoluments of the | oftfice will cut no figunre with him. Although of italian birth, he has resided | here since childhood, being a thorough | Californian. His ability and integrity are | recognized and are pretty familiar to the | public from his record as Supervisor. You | recollect thut when he ran for Supervisor | his popularity was shown by his running | abead of his ticket by alarge majority. He has on two occasions declined the | nomination of his party for Mayor, as| well as for the Legislature. Tt is the gen- | eral wish that the doctor may retain his | present position for a long period.” | ““With Dr. Pescia at, the Italian Consul- | ate,’' said Cesare Crespi, editor of the Messaggiero, a Socialistand labor journal, | *‘we shall have a man thoroughly equipped | for the office and well calculated to render valuable services to ourcolony and govern- ment. *The doctor has never taken sides in local differences. He is popular with people of all shades of opinion among us, who respect him also for his independence of character. “‘The list of people whom he has helped forward in life is a long one, for his purse is ever open to the claims of benevolence, But this 1s a subject,” concluded the editor langhingly, “tbat the doctor wouldn’t thapk me for dwelling on, much as I might wish to.” 2 Dr. Perrone coincided with the views expressed by the others, “‘Dr. Pescia well deserves the honor that has been thrust on him. He 1s a broad- gauge man and admirably suited for the position of Consul-General,” A. Sbarboro, the well-known secretary of the Italian-Swiss Agricultural Colony and prominent in financial circles, ex- pressed hisapproval of the appointment. “Dr. Pescia is 2 man of extraordinary {opuhrily with the members of the talian colony, He is liberal in his ideas respecting the opinions of others and noted for hisindependence. He has the knowledge, ability and time to attend to the dnties of the consulate and I believe him to be the right man in the right place.” TWO CLEVER THIEVES. Theophile Vaissivie, Liquor-Dealer, Robhed of a Steel Box Con- taining $66. A smart trick was played by two men upon Theophile Vaissivie, proprietos of a liquor-store at 3121 Sixteenth street last evening. Shortly before 6 o'clock two men en- tered his store and one of them said he wanted to rent one of the rooms upstairs. Vaissivie took him upstairs to show him the rooms, and when they returned to the | ently enjoying themselves. | the theater, the church, the drawin, sor happened to siray into the Stanford paddocks, where he seemed very much out of place. *‘Well,” he said, with his quiz- zical smile, ““all his life he has been teach- ing in ‘down East’ sectarian schools. He must have time to become broadened and enli-htened in this free atmosphere.’’ “Then, for the credit of the university, keep him at home until the process | is completed,” I replied. The president laughed and said he never tried to control the opinions of any member of the faculty. I wonder how many college presidents could say as much? I found Professor Griggs enduring with as much philosophy as he could command the position into which the newspapers had forced him as the *“Ideal Man.” “There is nothing to do but bear it in silence the nine days till something new catches the public fancy,” he said. “Iam going to write to THE CaAty,’” said Mrs. Griegs, “and say that I have lived with bim seven years and found that he is not an ideal man.” Several times nine days have come and gone and the newspaper paragrapher is still baving his small fun. And to think that, witl all this fuss, Anna Shaw never said that *‘Prolessor Griggs is her ideal man.” All she said, after listen- ing 1o his magnificent lecture on “The Modern Chanze in the Ideals of Woman- hood,” was, ‘The man who thinks these thoughts and lives this life is the man to go with that ideal woman.” Only this, and the newspapers have done all the rest. Nothing seems to cause men so much amusement as the thought that a woman can find any “ideals” amone them, and nothing makes them dislike a man more than to have him admired by woren. They experience no keener pleasure than in discovering and pointing out the flaws in such a man. I have thought wmany | times, during the present suffrage cam- paign, that if our women said one-half the mean things about men. that they say about themselves, they would be justified in refusing us anything we ask. From one end of the State to the other a chorus of male editors apd male contr butors beg and implore us not to step down to the level of men; not to soii our spotless robes by coming in_contact with them; not to delude ourselves with the hope of ever being able to reclaim men from their low | estate, or to lift them up from the depths into which they are plunged and appar- It does not seem to cause these men any anxiety be- cause we come in contact with them every day and on every possible occasion, in the streets, on the ferries, at the market, in -room. They do not hesitute even to ask us to as- sume the close relations of marriage, and consider they have honored us by so doing. It is only when we talk of coming | into politics, that, like the lcper, they gather their garments about them and cry | out, “Unclean, unclean,” There is just one of all the variea de- partments of life that men bave tried to conduct entirely by themselves, and that is the department of politics, What is the result? It is in such a state that they are positively afraid to let respectable women enter it. Now, if political conditions affected only the men themseives we might be tempted to let them pay the penalty of their own neglect and mismanagement, but every evil inthe body politic affects directly the women, the chiliren, the home, the whole social organization. We are so thoroughly conscious of our own strength and integrity that we cannot be frightened by all the criminating things men say about themselves and their polit- ical domain. It will be umembfledptbnt the 1amous pool of Bible history had no healing gunlitl s until an angel stepped down and touched the waters, It is a%out time that the waters of the pool of politics responded to a purifying touch. e de- cline to believe that men are as bad as they paint themselves, but if they are one- baif as bad, then they certainly are not ood enough to represent women, and the atter uejuatined in demanding that they be allowed to represent themselves, The masculine ongoncms of equal suf- frage are not satistied with telling us what vile creatures they are and warning us not to come among them, but they paint us such a picture of ourselves as would make the old masters di-couraged. The latter, it will be remembered, were fond of de- pictins their women sitting on the edee of & cloud, with a halo around their heads and a far-away expression on their faces asif they never had spanked a baby or cooked ameal of victuais orsat up till daylight waitin = for a convivial husband to come home, To read the flowery edi- torials and interviews one would suppose all the women of California were crowned with flowers and sitting on pedestals with barps in their hands, while one or more adoring men sat at their feet ready to obey t ‘eir slightest wish. Or, to put'the maiter a little less poetically, one would think every woman was queen of a hapoy bome, with a faithiul and devoted nus.

These fortunate women are implored not to exchange their throne for the ballot- box, not to take the awful step which leads from the parlor to the polis. I am reminded of a discussion 1 once had with 2 man on this subject, which he ended by, declaring, “Never shall my wife undertake the rough work of politics; her place is in her boudoir.”” I happened to be driving past their house a few days later but his wife was not in her boudoir, she was outin the back yard splitting kindling wood. There are two sides to this question; one is set forth in the sentimental editorials and interviews as above quoted, the other may be found in the telegraph and news columns of the papers. “Life is not all beer and skittles’ for women. Nobody knows this better than men, and yet in opposing the granting of further rivileges to women they always argue from the standpoint of that woman who hasa com- fortable :lnme.l delvdoud husband and a family of young children. The);r nle noziccount of the millions of women who have no home except such as they make for themselves, who have no protector, and only the bread they earn by the sweet of their brow, They do not con- sider those women who have pever mar- ried, or those who have been widowed, or those who are neglected, abused or for- saken by their husbands, ‘‘Man to man so oft unjust, is always so to woman, sang—not a woman but a man poet, and not in any one point is he so conspicu- ously umjust as in his treatment of this uestion of women’s enfranchisement. I 30 not believe in bringing personal mat- ters into a aiscussion of this kind, but for my own satisfaction again and again I have investigated the characler of the men who talked the loudest and longest in onposition. Almost without exception I have found that the men who prate of the holy duties of maternity, the obligations of women to be mothers, etc., are bache- lors living around in clubs and hotels. The men who declaim about the sacred- ness of the fireside, the holy functions of wifehood, etc., etc., are the ones who ha- bitually neilect their homes and do the least to make 1t a place so desirable that a woman would never wish to leave it. Those men who are continually laying down the rules as o what a woman must do and be if she wants them to love her are usually the men whose loye would be declined with thanks if it were offered. There are exceptions to these rules, but 1f any one doubts their general application let him make the experiment. You do not find big-hearted, broad.souled, just and lovable men making these petty, prejudiced and unmanly objections. Is there no way by which men can be made to see the impertinence of such expres- sions? The very fact that women suvmit to these things without protest or. re- sentment shows the effect of years of de- pendence and subordination. If a man believe that under the consti- tution a woman is notentitled to the privi- lege of the frauchise he has an unques- tioned right to say so, or if be thinks it would not he for the goad of the common- wealth, or if he has any legitimate objec- tion. bubl chall the right of men to define by fixed boundaries the sphere of a woman's activities; to limit ner privileges except as they are defined by statute; to say whether she shall or shall not marry; to instruet her in her duties as wife an mother. The true woman h knowledge of these duties far beyond what it is possible for any man to conceive. The instincts of nature are her gunide, They are as old as the race; they will endure as long as the race. the mothers a rest. REY DEL BANDIDOS FIRST, The Son of True Briton Proved a Great Stayer Over a Distance. Chartreuse II S:t a New Mark at Seven Furlongs for Ingleside. Five Favorites Downed. Rey del Bandidos, the strapping big chestnut son of imp, True Briton, covered himself with glory in the long-distance event at Ingleside yesterday. Before the race was called ramors were flying around that the stable trainer had made the dis- covery that the horse’s nostrils had beeu plugged with sponges, but this did not deter the public from backing him, and when the horses were called for the two and a quarter mile journey he was a prime 4 to 5 choice, backed down from 6 to 5. Of the other five starters Wawona and Little Cripple were accorded the principal support. The race proved the softest sort of a snap for the favorite. At the end of the first mile Little Cripple was showing the way. Wawona then took up the run- ning and was in front until nearing the bend for home the second time, where H. Brown gave Key del Bandidos his head and he won in a big gallop by six lengths in 3:57). Wawona had no difficulty in taking the place from imp. Fullerton Lass, who was fully tweive lengths further awa Tg:a winner, a three-year-old, carrying “THE CALL” eighty-seven i;pounds, broke the long- standing coast record of 3:5814, made by Duchess of Norfolk some years agy, and this on a track not considered bullet-fast. Had Le been pressed the chestnut could easily have bowled over the world’s record, made by Preakness and B%ringbok in 1875 in their dead heat for the Saratoga cup, when they crossed the wire nose and nose in 3:5614. There was an increase in the number of pencilers laying odds yesterday, ten book- making firms cutting in, and they were hardly adequate to handle the amount of coin that was thrust atthem by the big crowd that filled the betting ring. Instead of looking like hard times, one would think the racing season but just begun, The favorites did not meet with much suc- cess, but two of seven sent to the post be- ing returned winners, so the talent were slightly worsted. As though it was a day for record- smashing the little chestnut mare Char- treuse I1 hung up a new track record for seven furlongs in the Owners' handicap, setting the mark at 1:27 tat, the old record being 1:28. The mare was allowed to go to the post at odds of 4i4 to1and getting away third gradually moved up and struck the stretch three lengths be- hind the second choice, Bellicoso. The latter began backing up a furlong from the wire and in a drive was beaten out three-quarters of a length. The 8 to 5 favorite, Yankee Doodle, was lapped on the place horse at the end. A very warm thing was cut loose in the opening two-year-old race at four furlongs, The books posted 6 to 1 against Lady Heloise, and the money poured in an avalanche, cutting her odds down to 11 to 6.

The odds indicated that the jockey- owner was not in need of a purse, and the result fully -justified the fast gelding’s ‘price receding in the betting. e sponge story again went the rounds yesterday. Willliam Murray, the Lone stable’s “trainer, exhibited two sponges previous to the long-distance race that he said had been removed from the nostrils of Rey del Bandidos. He also said that sponges bad been found in the nostrils of odestia, the two-year-old filly who ran on Friday.
