Judge Wal- | lace, being extremely anxious to present to the regents, and conceal from the pub- { lic, the contents of a communication from thé newly elected president, moved that | the board go into executive sessfon. | The sec session lasted for more than an hour. It transpired that the comm: | tee appointed at the last meeting to in- | form Dr. Wheeler of his election to the | presidency at a salary of $10,000 per an- wum received a reply from him setting rth that he would not consider the offer s the regents agreed to certain con- ditions.

The allusion to Du Pont romotion was so obvious that the K shington in the veins of Re- Foote grew warm.

More Lawless People Punished for Violating the Statutes. The violators of the game laws in sev- | eral parts of the State are beginning to learn a few things about what is on the statute books, and, more than that, they are paying dearly for their knowledge. A few days ago four men were heavily fined in Mendocino County for Kkilling deer out of season, and their deer meat cost them enough to _keep their families for several months. Yesterday the State | Fish and Game Commissioners were in- formed by their deputies, members of the Santa Clara Fish and Game Association, that another party had paid the penalty of shooting out of season. The man was fined $40 for killing doves before the proper time. Had he waited for two weeks, when all hands would have had a chance, there would have been no trouble for him. To the war- den in that district the fellow stated that he had had all of the shooting he wanted for many months. The sports- men in Santa Clara are watching care- fully for violators of the law, the deter- mination belng that no one shall violate the laws if vigilance will prevent it. e The Lady’s Adventures. The brilliant production of Anthony Hope's romantic comedy, “The Adventure of the Lady Ursula,” by Henry Miller and the special company at the Columbia The- ater, is to be continued for another week. The demand for the play has surpassed all expectations and every one of the re- maining performances, including the spe- cial holiday matinee on Tuesday, July 4 should command a crowded holise. Mr. Miller and his company have been mak- ing an unusually fine impression upon | theater-goers. No such organization of merit has appeared here in some time. There will be a matinee to-day. e Park Concert July 4. | { | | Special patriotlc and popular programme, Tuesday, July 4: “*American’ _overture. Catlin Popular _melodies, selection.
