DEL MONT CAL., Sept. 3.—The autumn season, which is always so charming at Del Monte, is opening delightfully this year, both | regarding beauties of nature and social pieas- ures. The gorgeous Sepiember blossoms are lighting the lovely park with a flaming bril- liance and when & bunch of these flowers is gathered into the belt of the D:l Monte autumn girl her vivacity is in no measure dimmed by the comparison. The principal amusement of the past week has been horsebeck riding, several parties having gone round the drive and to nearer points of i:terest. Among the ladies there are some expert riders.

COLONEL POTT RESIENS. Hotel Accommodations at Ukiah Were Not Assigned to His Liking, He Construed the Arrangements as a Personal Insult—His Record in the National Guard. Lieutenant-Colonel F. 8. Pott, who was paymaster on the staff of Major-General James, division commander of the Na- tional Guard of California, has severed bis | connection with the guard. He fendered his resignation to the commancing officer and it was accepted without delay. The commandine general declined to say any- thing about the matter beyond the fact that the resignation had been presented and that it had been accepted. It appears that after the First Regiment of Infantry of the Second Brigade went into camp at Ukiah Major-General James decided to visit the camp and to take his staff with him. The major also decided to take his daughter with him, and, asshe is quite yqung, he asked Lieutenant-Colo- nel Pott, the paymaster on his staff, if Mrs. Pott would not accompany the party and act as chaperone to the young lady. The lady, at the request of the pay- master, agreed to be one of the party; end | another lady, the wife of one of the offi- | cers of the First Regiment, accompanied the party. Ason previous occasions, the pavmasier was requested to make all arrangements at the hotel, and when he | came to count the number in the party and the number of rooms at the hotel | reserved for them he discovered that there | were but eight rooms, and consequently there would ve to be some doubling up. He so reported to the major-general, who said that that wou!d be all right, and it | was agreed tkat the major-general and the paymaster should occupy one room | and that Mrs. Pott and the major-gen- | eral’s daughter should occupy another.. After supper the paymaster had occasion to go into the hotel office, and upon looking over the register discovered that not only had all hiy plans as to the rooms | been completely disturbed, but that ‘in | the new deal g¢verybody had a room but Mrs. Pott. He called upon the major-general for an explanation and was given to under- stand that the major-general was arrang- ing the rooins to suit himselfand that the new arrangement was perfectly satisfac- tory to him. The paymaster, who had for along time been very close to the division commander and expected different treat- ment from him, looked upon the treat- ment of Mrs. Pottasa direct insult to her and to himself, and lost no time in ex- pressing himself about the division com- mander. When an attempt was made to | placate him he re:used to be placated, and told his superior officer that all social in- tercourse between them was at an end, and that as he would no longer meet him so- cia ly he cou.d no longer rema:n on his staff, and added **You have my resigna- tion."’ All attempts 1o arrange matters between the two proved futile and on the following Monday, when Lientenant-Colonel Poit reached this City, he wrote out his resig- nation in due form, forwarded it to the commanding officer and it was accepted. Lieutenant.Colonel Pott was a member of the old City Guard, has held several posi- tions 1n the National Guard, and when N. T. James was chosen major-general Pott was appointed major and aid-de-camp on the d.vision staff. “Shortly after the death of Paymaster Fred F. Follis Major Pott was promo‘ed to fil: the vacancy. Colonel Frank W. Sumner, who was called from the retired list to the position of inspector on the staff of Major-General James, has asked to be vlaced on the re- | tired list again, on the ground that his! health—he being a sufferer from asthma— | will net permit him to attend to the du- ! ties of the office. Colonel Sumner had ili~ | idea of retiring for some time, put decided not to do so until after the close of the encampments. . . .——— Fthel and Marion Mortgaged. J. F.

Y., Aug. 30.—It is ru- mored that George Crocker will erecta towering apartment-house 1n the vicinity of Mount Morris Park. Ii rumor has it half right, Mr. Crocker will figure promi- nently 1n the affairs of this burrough of Manhattan. Another rumor is that Al Hayman, the ever wise, is quietly déveloping plans for erecting a theater and hotel combined. | Thisis an indirect tir, so to speak, but thoughts travel quickly through the electric charged atmosphere nowadays; therefore be not surprised 1f you soon read an authoritative statement that Mr. Hayman’s gigantic scheme is being realized. He will most likely select the site for the new structure on Herald or Long Acre squares. K.ith avenue will be one of the most perfect driveways in America as soon as Colonel Collis finishes his reformed sewer- age sysiem and the asphait pavements are laid.

He will join the staff on the Century Magsazine as a sub-editor. Mr. Norris' father is B, F. Norris, a mil- lionaire jeweler ot Chicago. ' Unlike the majority of wealthy men’s sons Mr. Norris is ambitious to make a fame and fortune for himself and is put- ting forth every effort to that one end. E. Saunders is paying a flying visit to the city. Charles L. Hopkins is a recent arrival here and is stopping at the Marlborough. K. A. Lundstrom, A. 0. Lundstrom and B.

S raus, the well-known busi- ness manager in the newspaver world, reached town on Tuesday evening. Mr. Straus will remain in New York as the Eastern representative of one of the prom- inent Coast newspapers. Mr. Siraus has many friends in this city, and consequently does not feel so lonely as the average newcomer to Gotham confesses to. The general public does not pause as a rule to think of the inner life of our famous people.

I saw her at the Manhattan Beach a week ago with her husband, and those are their children with her you know; aren’t they perfectly charming?’ I zlanced in the direction the ladies next me indicated and beheld, in all her girl- ish motherhood, Mrs. Jonn Philip Sousa with ber three children grouped about her. They were in astage box and a pret- tier family group one would not ask to see. Between the acts I had the pleasure of chatting with Mrs. Sousa about her in- teresting little family, and as I looked at her lovely girlish face and figure and marveled at the wonderful gray hair, which serves as a silvery aureola about her face, I could not refrain from saying, “How have you managed to look as young as your own children? It must be a secret all your own.” She laughed merrilv, and gave no reason for her youthful appear- ance. However, though she is prematurely gray, her youth shines through her eyes and in the flush of pink in her cheeks. John Philip Sousa Jr. is just 16 years olu, and will finish his high school course in another year. He will then be sent to Princeton Co lege to finish his education. He shows no inclination to follow in the footsteps of his father, the celebrated march king, but rather seems to show an inventive turn of mind. He is a fine looking boy, swarthy, like nis father. The two little girls, aged 8 and 12, attend a young ladies’ seminary at Red Bank, N. J. John Philip Sousa is busy on an opera which will be produced early this winter. Miss Annie L.

Print- ers’ Ink can't say anything fairer than that.” The theaters are in fuil swing, only a few more new plays remain to be pro- duced for metropolitan approval. The tad for long-winded titles for a drama 1s coming into vogue again evidently, be- cause nearly every ore of the new plays bas a long title. For example, “The Good Mr. Best,” ‘“fhe Wrong Mr. | Wright,” “The Idol's Eye,” “The Little Minister,”” “A Southern Romance,’”’ ‘A Devil’s Discivle,”” *“The Girl From Paris,” “One Round of Pleasure” and ‘*‘What Happened to Jones.” It is a fine array of suggestives, is it not? *'A Coat of Many Colors,” by Mrs. Ryley, will be Herbert I{elcys.and Effie Shannon’s vehicle for riding into public favor or disfavor.

I will be pleased to make reasonable inquiry. £ TRELLA Forrz TOLAND. 34 Park Row. POLICE AS CANVASSERS, Fin.ncial Success of the Entertainme; for Widows and Orphans Already Assured.
