Pieces of the Sod of Old Ireland in Demand as Souvenirs. The boys of the League of the Cross attended the Irish Falir lust evening in command of Colonel William P. Sulli- van. They entered the Pavilion to the strain of martial music, and as they made the circuit of the hall they were saluted on all sides by the applause of fair maid- ens and the admiring smiles of the moth- ers of the young men. Last evening a number of bright young ladies, who were stationed at the map of Ireland, did a rushing business in dis- posing of small square pleces of peat at from 10 to &0 cents a piece, according to the size. This was the ning sale of a lot of Irish turf that came across the water in ten casks. It was cut from the bogs in the various counties of Ireland some months ago. Each piece was tied with a green ribbon. These mementoes of the fair are in great demand. The photograph booth, in charge of Mrs. J. T. Bertrand, is one of the great a tractions of the fair, and is very liber. iy patronized. Mrs. Bertrand, who is one of the most popular ladies of the ;{l;h" is a direct descendant of an Irish .

ORGANIZED LABOR WILL CELEBRATE MONDAY WILL BE WORKING-| MAN’S DAY AT SHELL MOUND. Speeches on Labor Questions and the ‘Usual List of Picnic Amusements. Labor day this year is both a State and and the trades unions Lave united to make the celebration one to be remembered. As this day was made @ holiday at the request of organized la- bor, the wageworkers think it but fitting to-let each Labor day mark some progres- sive step and call public attention to the work: acomplished by the trades unions and the necessity of a more perfect organ- ization of wageworkers. This year the volee of organized labor throughout the world will be raised in demand for a shorter workday—more time to rest for those at work and more opportunity to work for the many thrown out of em- ployment by labor-saving machinery. A joint committee was appointed three . months ago by the two central bodies, and it has been working zealously ever since. It has been decided to hold a picnic in Shell Mound Park Monday, with literary exercises in the afternoon, when good apeakers will tell of the objects and work of trades unions to ali who desire to hear, For the others there will be the custom- ary amusements—games, races and dane- in John Hill of the Pattern-makers' Union has been chosen president of the day, and will make the opening address.

The Oakland Exposition People In- terested in This Movement. A few days ago the Council of Associ- ated Industries held a meeting and set in motion several projects that its members hope to have come before the next Leg- islature. Principal of these is the matter of legislation looking to the creation of pure food laws and a stricter enforcement of tnose already on the statute books. Good roads will also receive the consid- eration of the council, which is composed of all of the leading commercial, indus- fari Union, s band and the clos. . J.

The fiscal year of the Paclfic Associa- tion, ending in May, and that of the Ama- | teur Athletic Union in September, it was decided that each club in the assoclation hould pay $2 50 dues from May to Sep- tember, that being the proportion of dues at the rate of $7 50 per annu; An application from the Olympic Club, which has been out of the association for about eighteen months, for reinstate- ment, was made and accepted. The club will send delegates to the annual meeting of the association, to be held at the Re- liance Club, Oakland, on Monday even- ing, September 19. An amendment to the constitution with regard to the definition of junior, inter- mediate and senior oarsmen and scullers was passed. A junior oarsman or sculler is one who has never won a race, an in- termediate oarsman is one who has won ut has never won an inter- mediate or senior event, a senior carsman or sculier is one who has won an inter- mediate or senior race. 5. J. Pembroke of the A.ameda Boat Club, who took charge of the San Fran- cisco oarsmen and scullers who recently rowed in the Astoria regatta, detailed the experiences of the visitors from this city, saying that he had never seen so much sport crowded iInto three days as at the northern city. He also ‘expressed the hope that next vear it may be possible to induce the cltiz of Oakland to hold an aquatic carnival on Lake .aerritt, in which representatives of all tne clubs on the o m; take part, and to which the rowing clubs of Victoria, Vanco T, | Portland, Astoria and San Diego may be invited to send tk best crews and single lers.

Residents Near Seventeenth-Street Pumping Station Signing a Petition. Property owners and residents in the neighborhood of the pumping station of the Spring Valley Water Works, Seven- teenth street, between Noe and Sanchez, are signing a petition to the Board of Su- pervisors asking for the abatement of a nuisance caused by the smoke and soot from the chimney of the pumping sta- tion. In the petition it is alleged that the smoke and soot ‘“‘have blackened the houses in the neighborhood of said pump- ing station and Lave prevented and stlii prevent the residents in the neighborhood | from allowing their windows to remain open and from drying thelr houschnld" washing in their yards or from enjoyin any portion of their homes outside o thair houses.

Ten years ago the California State Floral Soclety came into existence, and | vesterday the anniversary was commem- orated in a quiet way by a social gather- ing at the meeting rooms of the organi- zation at 223 Sutter strect. In ten years the society has distribuied nearly $4600 in premiums and prizes to growers of fanc( and rare flowers, besides many special prizes donated by friends. The feature of yesterday's gathering was an address by J. Burtt Davy of the depart- ment of botany of the State University, Wwhose discourse was on ‘‘Perfumes and Their Origin.” Professor Davy dweit particularly uRon this industry in’ Europe and the methods of extracting perfume from flowers. One reason for the indus- try being successful in France and not in thig country is that labor is cheaper there than here. —_—— 1993-1898. Our anniversary week is on.

THE SIXTH GOES OUT ALSO PROMPT RESPONSE TO HUGH CRAIG'S TELEGRAM. President McKinley Referred the Dispatch to the War Depart- ment, Which Acted at Once. As exclusively intimated in The Call of vesterday, in a dispatch received from Washington, D. C., the Eighth Regiment will remain in service, while the Seventh and Sixth will be mustered out. The troubles of the Seventh California are nearly at an end. There was much joy in the camp last evening, caused by the announcement that a dispatch had been received by Hugh Craig, president of the Chamber of Commerce, from Ad- Jjutant General Corbin, saying that Mr. reply the adjutant general stated: to inform you that orders will issue to- day or to-morrow for the mustering out of the Sixth and Seventh California regi- ments of volunteer infantry.” The result of the agitation in behalf of the enlisted men of the Seventh in their fight against Colonel Berry and other officers of the Seventh Reglment came much sooner than was expected. It was, no doubt, so promptly accomplished by Prestdent Craig's’dispatch and the appeal of Senator White. Mr. Newberry, who started for Washington on Thursday to make a special effort on behalf of the en- listed men, can now return to Los An- geles. The Seventh Regiment, which comes from Southern California, will return to | Los Angeles and there be mustered out at Its armory. The orders for the muster- ing out will be received at military head- guarters to-day, and, of course, will be 1mmed1mel§ acted upon. The Sixth Regiment, in command of Lieutenant Colonel Johnson, is largely made up of men from the Sacramento Valley, and will be disbanded in San | Francisco. Lieutenant Colonel Johnson is stationed at Benicla with the regiment headquarters and several companies of | the regiment, which are doing garrison duty and guarding the arsenal. No gen- eral desire on the part of the Sixth to go out of the service has been manifested, | and to many of the men the order will, no doubt, be somewhat of a surprise. Some members of the companies sta- tioned at Fort Point came over to Camp Merriam last evening and held a sort of Jjollification meeting with men of the Sev- enth, both. unitin, in singing "Home.i Sweet Home.” owever, there was no | great excltement caused by the muster- | ng-out order, as it was the expected that had happened. Colonel Berry was not in camp last evening, and the other officers refused to discuss the matter for publication further than to say that they feel deeply cha- grined at the outcome of this affair, which they regard under the circum- stances as a disgrace upon the regiment, and at present would like to retaliate upon the persons who have brought this thing about. “I\lnetf’-five per cent of my men prefer to stay in the service,” sald the colonel, “rather than disgrace the Seventh by asking for their discharge. It is the re- maining 5 per cent who are doing all the kicking and who have been doing it all along. They are that per cent of worth- less soldiers_who are to be found in every resiment. To kick is all they care for, and they would run !f they got into a, fight. The men of this regiment are will- ing to perform the contract that they en- tered into with the Government. They will no doubt not kick if they snould be mustered out, but they are not going to petition the Government of their own free will to be mustered out. The re-ort that I want to continue the regiment in service because I am getting a good sal- ary is not worth considering. uf-seif and my officers sacrificed business interests in going into the service for which our salarfes do not begin to compensate us. Personally my salary does not begin to meet my expenses, and, besides, T am sacrificing business Interests that would more than amount to what I would get in the service in ten vears. I suall take no further steps in this affair, but await developments. I was visited to-day by two prominent gentlemen from Los An- geles, and they went over the camp and examined the reports of the sfe_: in fact, they made a close Investigation of the whole matter, and they declared when they left that there was no ground for all the sensation that was belng made of the sickness in the camp. —— FURLOUGHED SOLDIERS. Warning to Convalescents to Eat Nothing but the Sim- plest Necessary Food. The following suggestive instructions were received at military headquarters yesterday afternoon from Adjutant Gen- eral Corbin: “It having been reported to the War Department that many convalescent sol- diers who have received furloughs and started for home have been taken ill on the way, and to avold further occurrences of this kind it is suggested in the strong- est possible terms that all soldiers trav- eling homeward on furloughs will exer- cise their best judgment in caring for themseives, especially those who have been i1l with fever. Thelr appetites are very keen, and unless they deny them- selves everything cxcept the necessary food of the simplest character they are in great danger of a relapse. This instrue- tion is sent out hoping that it may catch the eye of those men en route and also for the instruction of surgeons at hos- pital It is ordered that no man will reced a furlough whom the surgeon in charge believes to be unable to travel alone, and that no furloughed soldier | shall leave a hospital without receiving full Instructions as to his diet while en route to his home from his surgeon. - Presidio Notes. Privates W. M. Holden and Louis Dunn of Company 1. Fifty-first Towa, died vesterday at the Division Hospital. The War Department has deflnitely de- clded that it will not muster out the California Heavy Artillery for the pres- ent. This probably means that Major Rice’s command may do duty at Angel Island and Alcatraz. General Miller has been notified of the decision of the de- partment. Captain Granville Palmer, command- ing the Alger Battery, will leave in a few days for the mountains to secure a much needed rest. He has been sick for some time, and his doctor fears that he is threatened with typhoid fever. During his absence the battery will be under the command of First Lieutenant Clarke. A board of survey appointed by Gen- | eral Miller will convene this morning to pass upon some clothing issued to the Nevada Cavalry, which is sald to be of an inferior gquality.

GOOD WORK NOW UNDER WAY SECRETARIES BLISS AND WIL- SON ARE IN ACCORD. Senator Warren Says That Much Aid May Be Received From Con- gress in the Future. Special Dispatch to The Call. CHEYENNE. Wyo., Sept. 2.—At the session of the Irrigation Congress to- day Senator F. E. Warren spoke upon what the congress is doing in aid of irrigation, Senator Warren confessed at the start that the discussion of what the congress had not done in aid of ir- rigation offered a much wider field than that confined to what had been done. The desert land law was the first evi- dence of Congressional interest in re- clamation of arid lands by irrigation. This act was followed by repressiv. legisiation, but during the past five years a marked change had occurred. The Carey act was an evidence of this chenge, but this act had been altered by subsequent legislation. However, there was a hopeful side shown by the spirit and temper of the last Congress. The upper house had given much time to debate in favor of national construction of reservoirs and the larger canals. Senator Warren said the time for investigation was past. The fleld was now ready for actual work and liberal appropriations to per- fect this work must be secured. The progress made in preserving the forests was a step ahead and the Department of Agriculture with a Western man at the head had made a good beginning. Senator Warren believed the Govern- ment should water the lands. Hon. E. F. Best of the Interior De- partment then read a paper upon ‘“The National Forest Reserves and the Re- lationship of Forestry and Irrigation.” Judge Best sald the whole heart of the Secretary of the Interior was in this problem of preserving the forests. He said the preservation of the water sup- ply was the most important factor in the problem. This was, in many in- stances, the sole motive for the estab- lishment of reservations. Judge Best spoke of the intimate relations between the forest and the flowing stream, the latter always being at the maximum when the former was undisturbed. A very earnest debate followed, dur- ing which President Carey spoke in high terms of the work of Secretary Bliss ds the head of the Interior De- partment. State Engineer Mead of Wyoming, in an able address, spoke on “The Obsta- cles to Settlement ingthe Arid Region and the Best Means of Overcoming Them,” and Judge Emery of Kansas led the discussion on the topic, “The Storage of Water.” “Obstacles to Set- tlement in the Arid Region” was ably handled by J. A. Johnston, superintend- ent of Water Division No. 1 in Wyom- ng. In the debate upon this topic Mr. Mead graphically portrayved the obsta- cles to settlement as experience had shown them. Capital was needed to make settlement by the poor man pos- sible and he belfeved that an easy way to get It was to cede the grazing lands to the State and Jet them lease them, thus securing $4,000,000 a year to pro- mote irrigation. Mr. Waitland of Utah also spoke upon this topic, remarking that the congress was losing sight of the purpose for which it wagorganized, viz.: the disposition of the arid lands. At § o'clock the congress selected Montana as the State in which to hold the next annual meeting. The city will be selected by the executive committee hereafter. Adjournment was then had until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. The following were made members of the executlve committee of Lue congress for the ensuing year: Kellogg, Colorado; 8. M. Knox. ulinois; J. H. Churchill, Kansas; R. W. Sylvester, Maryland; Thomas Knight. Massourti: J. D. O’Donnell, Montan: M. Mec- T. G. Frost, Minne- Nebraska; . . . N.

At the suggestion of President Dohr- mann, now in New York, the board of di- rectors of the Merchants’ Assoclation has decided to have L. M. King, superintend- ent of the public work department of the assoclation, proceed at once to the East for the purpose of collecting Information relative to public works In Eastern cities. Mr. King started last evening, and will be absent one month. During that time he will, in conjunction with President Dohr- mann, carefully examine recent public improvements in New York, Philadelphla, Boston, Washington, Buffalo and other leading cities. Special attention will be given to street pavements, electric and gas lighting, sew- erage and drainage, street rallways, cleaning and sprinkling of streets, as well as other matters pertaining to municipal government and administration. At the end of this month President Dohrmann will return, and a report of his observa- tions of municipal affairs in the most progressive citles of Europe and America will be rendered to the Merchants’ Asso- clation, and recommendations for certain municipal Improvements will be made to the authorities of San Francisco. —_—————————— Hale & Norcross Case. The Supreme Court has granted a writ of supersedeas in the Hale & Norcross case. It has decided that the defendants in the actlon of the Hale & Norcross Sil- ver Mining Company against M. W. Fox et al. have the right to appeal from the decision of Superior Judge Daingerfield, which he made to compel Fox as presi- dent and R. U. Collins as secretary to cancel an order of sale of stock belonging to George Grayson. In the Superfor Court it was decided that the levy of the as- sessment was illegal and the sale of the delinquent stock necessarily void. The plaintiffs, however, endeavored to have the Jower court compél them to make the transfer of the stock or be punished for contempt. “A petition for a writ of super- sedeas was presented to the higher court, the contention being that the notice of appeal acted as a stay of proceedings un- til the appeal should be determined. The Supreme Court says that the question cannot be determined by a mere inspec- tion of the order appealed from, but the merits of the order must be considered. While the motion to dismiss remains un- determined it is the duty of the lower court to refrain from its enforcement. ————————— . Rheumatism, kidney, liver diseases cured.
