Mrs. Wells, mother of | Marie Wells, debutante, has come to the | front, makes the fight a more or less | personal one between herself and Mrs, | | Monroe Salisbury, the organizer of the | Fortnightly, and offers much spicy matter in evidence. According to Mrs. Wells, Miss Marie has, previous to this season—the season | that has witnessed her unfold her dainty petals and bloom from a shrinking bud to a full-blown belle—been a prominent member of the Fortnightlys, and always attended their dance: But this season all-that has been changeu; and thereby hangs a not uninteresting tale of “‘cash— ambrosial cash.” Said Mrs. Wells: “We have always been good friends of Mrs. Salisbury..

But finally | there came from the lady a request for a loan. | _“Mrs. Salisbury wanted $3000 very badly, | and she asked Mr. Wells for it. Mr. | Wells told her he really couldn't spare | the money, as he expected a call from his Mexican mines that would take all | his ready cash. Mrs. Salisbury said if Mr. Wells wanted to he could get the | money for her from a certain_ capitalist, |and when Mr. Wells declined she was Vvery angry. “We thought no more about the mat- | ter. Marie signed away all her germans for the season, never once dreaming that she was to ge left out of the Fortnightly. “But her ‘invitation never came. At | first the child thought it an oversight, but when our friend Mr. Colin Smith, who knows Mrs. Salisbury very well, asked her about Marle, Mrs. Salisbury said that Marle had been very rude to her. “‘Mr. Smith said he doubted Marie bein, that sort of girl, and Mrs. Salisbury sals she had been so rude as not to call upon her_for a year. “Now, none of us care at all about this.

The con- dition of the weather will not interfere with them or the others who wiil take part in the Wild West Show, for rain or shine they will carry out their part of the programme.

The directors met yesterday afternoon, and decided to have the rafters of the Pavilion covered with blue cloth, dotted with silver stars, s0 as to resemble the sky.

Governor Budd yesterday issued the following proclamation declaring Jan- uary 24 a legal holiday: SACRAMENTO, Jan. 15.—It is con- | templated that the fiftleth anniversary | of the discovery of gold in California be celebrated on the twenty-fourth day of January, A. D. 1898. Recognizing the significance of that event, and the influence which that discovery has ex- ercised upon the destinies of California, and the history of the world, and hav- ing been thereunto requested, I, James H. Budd, Governor of California, do | herebv proclaim and appoint Monday, January 24, A. D. 1898, a legal holi- day. In witness whereof, I have here- | unto set my hand, and caused the | great seal of the State of California to | be hereunto affixed, this 10th day of | January, A. D. 1888. ! JAMES H. BUDD, Governor. | Fresno County is preparing to make | an exhibit of her products at the Gold- | en Jubilee which will be highly cred- itable to that county. A splendid dis- play of raisins and drled and citrus fruit will be made, and the matter of collecting the exhibit is now being en- ergetically pushed. Messrs. Nourse, Butler and Hermann of the Chamber of Commerce of Fresno, who were ap- pointed to get up the exhibit, appeared before the Board of Supervisors of that county yesterday, and asked that Horti- cultural Commissioner Marshall be per- mitted to visit San Francisco and re- main in charge of the Fresno County exhibit during the five weeks of the Golden Jubilee. The Chamber of Com- merce will bear all the expense of his stay. The Board of Supervisors grant- ed the request unanimously. Mr. Marshall will call upon the growers throughout Fresno County and collect exhibits, in addition to those which have already been promised. The intention is to make the Fresno County disp! a_striking one at the Jubilee, and Mr. Marshall will work with that end in view. The Chamber of Com- merce Is enthusiastic in the matter of making a notable exhibit, and is work- ing hard to have the county well rep- resented. One of the most elaborate floats Wwhich will appear in the parade will be that which will be presented in the Celtic Division. A committee con- sisting of Colonel T. H. Barry, Frank | Conklin and P. H. McGinney have se- lected a design which will picture the history of Ireland. The float will rep- resent one of the famous round towers of the anclent isle. This will be pre- sented In glistening granite covered with moss and ivy from Ireland. A wolf dog, indigenous to that count will be a prominent figure. The four prov- inces, Ulster, Munster, Connaught and Leinster, will be presented by four 1i ing figures. In addition to this thir two young ladies horne in the float will nt the counties of that country. s there will be twelve shields on which will be depicted the charae- teristics of the most noted heroes in Irish history In addition to this an Irish harpist will seated on the side of the mountain In the rear of the tower, and will play national selections during the parade. Several waterfalls realistically arranged will add color to whole scene, An invitation was extended last night to Brigadier-General M. W. Mul- ler, commanding the Second Brigade, N.'G. C., of Fresno, asking him and his staff and command to parade in this city on Jubilee day. If it is Im- possible to secure the attendance of all the companies of the Second Brigade, General Muller and the officers con- nected with his personal staff will prob- ably be present. CRIMINALS SENTENCED. The Davis Brothers Get Seven Years for Attempted Robbery | of the Mails. Yesterday was sentence day in the Tnited States District Court, and Judge de Haven pronounced judgment upon four criminals. The first to stand up Charles B. White, a Stockton man, who got into trouble by advertising an unlaw- | ful medicine through the mails. He was sentenced to pay a fine of $300, or in de- fault to be imprisoned in the Alameda County 1 until the fine should have been paid. James and Edgar L. Davis, the brothers who tried to rob a mail coach | near Willits, in Mendocino County, last Christmas night, were sentenced to seven years' imprisonment with hard labor in the San Quentin penitentiary.

C., Jan. 15. | ‘Washington soclety is tranquil again, | | having settled a momentous question of | soclal precedence. The British Gov- | ernment has decided that the Vice- | President of the United States takes | precedence over the British Embassa- | dor, and Sir Julian Pauncefote has, un- | der its instructions, made the first call on Vice-President Hobart, which the latter has returned. | The question was raised by Sir Ju-| llan, under the last administration, | when Vice-President Stevenson good | naturedly waived his claim of preced-j ence, but Vice-President Hobart did not | feel that it was right for him to do so | and so refused to call upon Sir Jullan | Pauncefote until the latter should call | upon him. As the dispute, although compara- | tively unimportant, was liable to make | some friction at official functions, Pres- l ident McKinley wrote, unofficially, to | Embassador Hay, with the approval of | Vice-President Hobart, asking him to | sound the British foreign office on the | subject, with the understanding thatl whatever it decided would be accepted by the United States. | Colonel Hay did so and replied that | the British Government accorded the precedence to the Vice-President, and that was quickly followed last week | by Sir Julian's formal call on Vice- President Hobart. Thus ends a controversy which has made infinite talk in official and social circles, although It has not figured much in the newspapers. —_— e———— William H. GodKin's WIli. William H.
