WOODLAND, Sept. 16.—Mrs. Dan Nason wil soon inherit the estate of her father, which is estimated to be quite valuable, and in connection there- with is quite an interesting story. About twenty years ago a man named Mrs. | John Connors and his young daughter, Miss Katie, arrived at Dunnigan, Yolo County, and took up their residence. About eight or nine years afterward Mr. Connors went to Arizona to engage in mining. His daughter remained in Dunnigan and made her home with Thomas Mitchell. On August 7, 1888, she married Dan Nason. For several years previous she had heard nothing from her father. It was about six years after her marriage that she recelved the first positive in- formation that he was ali At that time he returned, unannounced and un- expected, to visit his daughter.

In the present discussion the spheres | pertaining to both countries are contend to be on an equal footing. The eviden showed that the Dutch sphere was much larger than Spain’s and Venezuela had produced few acts of control by Spain be- e Spain then had no control. There- fore the theory of overlordship had been adduced in order to reinforce the few acts | done by Spain. Sir Richard urged that Venezuela had no titie to Barima. Though it might have been offered by various Ministers as a concession, it belonged by ground right to England. | —_————— | WEDDED IN THE NORTH. | Typewriter Marries Wealthy Klon- | diker on Short Acquaintance. TACOMA, Sept. 16.—The steamer { Dirigo brings from Juneau the story of the romantic marriage of a Seattle girl to a rich Klondiker. W. J. Part- | ridge while in Seattle employed a type- | writer, Miss Stewart, "to accompany him to the Atlin country to take care | of his correspondence. He was dispos- | ing of a half million dollars’ worth of | mining property and had a good deal | of business. Miss Stewart accepted the | position and the two left on the steam- er City of Seattle. On the way up Miss Stewart met the rich Klondiker, who fell in love with her. Before Juneau was reached he had proposed and had been accepted. As an evidence of his love he gave the bride $10,000. She went to her employer and begged for release from her con- tract, and Mr. Partridge complied. The Klondiker and his fiancee left the steamer at Juneau, hunted up & priest and were married, and then continued the journey to the Klondike. The name of the Klondiker escaped the memory of Mr, Partridge, who made the story public. STATE FAIR COMES TO A SUCCESSFUL CLOS FRANCISCO CALL SACRAMENTO, Sept. 16.—The forty- sixth annual State Fair, the most suc- cessful affair of a similar character conducted in this State for many years, closed in an auspicious manner to- night. Hundreds of people who had not attended the pavilion since the opening of the State Fair visited 1t to- night. There was an immense throng in the vast structure and the exhibitors vied with each other in disposing of the surplus samples of their stock. The musical and vaudeville programmes were specially arranged for the last night and were excellently rendered in every respect. The representative of the California Paris Exposition Commission has been in attendance at the fair and he has made known his desire to procure a number of the finer exhibits for the use of the commission. This request was made known to the managers of the splendid exhibit of Sacramento County, who will lay the matter before the Board of Supervisors, who mno doubt will heartily comply with the commis- sion’s request. Since the beginning of the fair this city has entertained thousands of strangers and they were pleased with the treatment accorded them by the residents of the Capital City. From the very outset President A. B. Spreck- els and his colleagues of the State Ag- ricultural Soclety, working in conjunc- tion with the Citizens’ State Fair Club, labored assiduously for the success of the State's great annual show, and their labors have not been in vain. The directors speak in glowing terms of the valuable tance rendered by the citizens’ committee and every one else in making the fair a most complete suc- cess. Beyond a doubt the work done by the citizens’ committee this year will be a criterion for similar commit- tees in the future, and will be renewed with increased interest and enthu- slasm. From 9 to 10:30 o’clock to-night the Citizens’ State Fair Club gave a recep- tion to the exhibitors in the directors room, and a few hours were spent in soclal intercourse and congratulatory It Is Roughly Estimated That the Profits Will Be at Least Ten Thousand Dollars. speeches by members of the Agricul- tural Soclety, the State Fair Club and the exhibitors. J. O. Coleman introduced President A. B. Spreckels to the exhibitors and in- vited guests, Mr. Spreckels said that the people of the State were to be con- gratulated for the fair being such an unqualified success. On behalf of the society he thanked the Citizens' State Fair Club for its valuable assistance in the conduct of the fair. He also thanked the exhibitors for their efforts to make the institution a success and for the extraordinarily fine display of the products and resources of the State. When Mr. Spreckels finished speaking he was heartily cheered by those In at- tendance. Vice President Frederick Cox also ad- dressed those present. He, too, thanked every one connected with the fair for their efforts in assisting to make a suc- cess of the show. The members ofithe club of '99 also held a reception and en- tertained a large number of women who had been invited to partake of their hospitality. Refreshments were served at both receptions. The total receipts for both park and pavilion for this year are $22,600. The total for last year was $14,700, an in- crease for this year of $7900, or over 50 per cent gain. In addition to this there was an increase of $§5262 for betting privileges, of $321 for prégramme priv- ileges and of $100 for pavilion privileges. The expenses of administration this DAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1899 E| BARBARA OPPOSE BURNS year, notwithstanding the great growth | of the exposition, do net exceed those of 1898. The only particulars in which added expense was incurred was in the electric light and power serviee fur- nished exhibitors, carpenter work in preparing the grand stand and pavilion to sustain the vast crowds which thronged them, in plumbing and In preparing the great poultry annex. The management has paid liberal and in- creased premiums to breeders and pro- ducers, has provided a more perfect police service and has improved the grounds and kept them clean and orderly. Notwithstanding this a hasty casting up of accounts to-night indi- cates that there will be a clear profit of over $10,000 to apply to the indebtedness which accumulated in past years.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 16.—Patients in the County Hospital have filed com- | plaints with the Board of Supervisors alleging the greatest cruelty and gross | negligence on the part of nurses em- ployed In that institution. Charles H. Earley, a patient, is the author of the‘ complaint. He says that John Howle, a Scotch boy, dled in ward 10 under the most horrifying surroundings from | hemorrhages—in fact, in his helpless- ness he fell from his bed and lay for hours unnoticed until the nurse, Dougherty, finally covered the boy with flithy clothes. Earley cites another pathetic fin- stance of abuse on the part of the| nurses in the case of Barney Silver- man, who was brought to the hospital dying of consumption. On the night of September 6 Silverman was in a dying condition. He wanted to get to the night chair, and pleaded for help. Dougherty was at the time helping Howie, and one of the patients named ‘Wheaton went to his assistance. Silverman got to the chair and | Wheaton was waiting to help him back, when Dougherty saw him and ordered | him to bed. Then he stood in front of | Stlverman and eommanded him to “get up and get into bed.” Silverman could not and Earley interposed. Dougherty | then assisted him to bed and, having done s0, said roughly to Earley, “I want | you to mind your own business.” : am minding my business,” Earley re plied. “I'll come over there and I throw you out of the window Dough- | erty sald. Earley made some repiy and | Dougherty said threateningly, “I'll put | you in the insane ward.” Silverman was a corpse the next| morning, declares Earley in his report No Is | Dr. John Murietta was the physician in | charge of ward 10 at the time. While this recital is dreadful, Earley declares and he corroborates his state- ment by that of other patients that when & colored man, Tobe by name, died the attendants robbed the pockets of the corpse. The whole matter will| be investigated, as the people are de- termined to settle these scandalous re- ports regarding public institutions. INTERESTS THE COAST.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.—The at- tention of the State Department has been drawn to the situation on the frontier of Arizona, where Mexican[ and American troops are confronting | each other and trouble is threatened as the result of the killing of some Mexican soldiers by cowboys. The Mexican Embassador, Senor As- plros, now at Manchester-by-the-Sea, has received a communication from his Government on the subject, and this was deemed of sufficient importance to warrant a presentation of the facts sent out to-day to Acting Secretary Adee by Senor Santo Banos, the resi- | dent member of the Mexican legation. Mr. Adee, In turn, has called on the Governor of Arizona for a statement of the conditions on the border. Extra- dition proceedings can take place di- rectly between the Governors of the States without recourse to the State Departments of either the United States or Mexico. In the present instance some of the parties to the killing o° the Mexican officers have escaped into Arizona, and serfous resistance may be offered to any effort to secure their arrest and return. The assistance of the United States Government may be invoked. KILLED IN A MINE.
