Grand Ratification Meeting To- Night at Metropeolitan Hall. Surprise in Store. At Metropolitan Hall to-night there will be a People’s party and Sliver Democratic ratiflcation meeting. The circulars an- nouncing the meeting contain the signifi- cant line: "LOOK FOR A SURPRISE.” Following the displayed line is the sen- tence: “A distinguished orator will en- tertain you.” Perhaps Judge Maguire, who is in sympathy with the free silver tendencies of the People's party, may ad- dress the meeting, but his name is not heralded as one of the speakers. The managers of the People’'s party present these reasons why Democrafs should vote for Dr. C. D, Cleveland for Mayor: Because, except by advertisement and label, there {s 0 other Democratic candidate for that great office, Because he iz a pure Jeffersonian Democrat. Because he is the only candidate for Mayor indorsirg geunine Demooratic principles, na- tional as well as local, Because he is the only eandidate for Mavor who is openly for Bryan and the Chicago Demo- cratie platform in 1500, Beeause he is honest, capable and possesses a character beyond reproach.

This was well known, and he would not have alluded to the matter had it not been that he had been per- sigtently !led about and misrepresented. r. Davis was frequently cheered as he spoke. I.

Los Angeles will come 0 the convention on November 14 by igea. There is sure to be a warm discus- sion of the subject matter. The subject is of such great importance to the State of California that Mr. Thomas was asked to explain his position, which he did to some extent. “I do not believe that the Government will take up this work by itself, in Cali- fornia, for several reasons. One Is that the people of the manufacturing States of the East, through their representatives in Congress hay lending of Government aid to us. Bu pose the Congressmen from Massachu- setts should be asked to vote for an ap- propriation what would they say? They could not favor it on the ground that it would help us to become a manufacturing State in competition with their own con- stituents, now, could they? Neither could the Congressmen from any other manufacturing State. ““There is o question that cheap power would tend to powerfully stimulate our manufacturing = industries and would ereate many new ones; nor ig there any doubt that the extension in large degree of the area of land susceptible of culti- vation though irrigation would tend to increase our population and business and would invite additional transportation lines to enter the State in search of TA e “California can act for herself because the sources of her water supply all arise within the State.

McCARTHY, 1704 Leavenworth st no longer exists. CHAS. McCARTHY, 1704 Leavenworth st. The foregoing appeared among the “per- | sonals™ of The Call yesterday, and its pe- culiar nature attracted marked attention. Behind it is a e of unrequited affection, obdurate parents and an incensed but constant lover. As appears in the above | personal, Charie: rthy, a plumber whose place of business is at 1208 Pacific street, i3 anxious that the world should | know that he is no longer the prospective | husband of Miss Lottie Ott, daughter of Pilot John W. Ott, who resides at 13 Glover street. The young lady on the cther hand admits having kept company | with McCarthy, but strenuously denies | that she ever was engaged to him.s She | further states that she has been perse- | cuted, slapped and annoyed by him and | believes that her adorer is not respon- | sible for his actions. Her father and step- mother concur in this opinion, and they have even called in the aid of Attorne | Devoto to have McCarthy restraine from inflicting his love on the young lady. Despite_ the harsh opposition of the parents, McCarthy is Wlllinf to descend to the uttermost depths for her, and swears that he will yet win her and if he does she will never talkk to her parents again. He claims that if the stepmother and the father had not poisoned Lottie's mind against him they would have been united ere this. McCarthy's sto: is full of pathetic phases, while that of the voung lady has a num of dramatic climaxes. Miss Ott is confined to her bed through sickness brought on by worrying over Me- Carthy's attentions. She stated that she became acquainted with him while he was engaged in doing some plumbing about the house. While she never cared for him, still she accepted his invitations to go out with him, simply as a friend. She never dreamed of marrying him. No, she did not care so much for him. She always belleved him fickle, having often heard that he was running around with other girls, She stated that when the trans- port Sherman was sighted MecCarthy invited her to view the bay parade in his company and failed to keep his en- gagement, Her friendship for him ceased at that moment, and since then he has been writing her letters asking to be re- leased from the engagement. Miss Ott did not reply to these episties. McCarthy continued his letter writing and the ex- asperated father of the object of his af- fection ordered the ardent lover's letters returned to him unopened. This course was pursued, A week ago Sunday Me- Carthy met Miss Ott on the streét and asked her why she did not respond to his last letter, and upon her replying that her father had returned it he pulled it out of his pocket and told her if she read it she would confer a favor on him. His man- ner of making the request and his re- marks angered the young ‘Rdfi’ and she tore the letter into bits and threw it at him. McCarthy lost his temper and struck the girl in the mouth, cutting her lip. The next moment he was sorry for his action and begged forgiveness. She left him without granting the boon and re- tired crying to her home. This was the last straw and her father consulted with Attorney Devoto, It the latter cautioned his client not to take extreme measures, as it would bring notoriety to his family. The next day a letter was recefved from McCarthy, in which he humbly apologized for what he termed a cowardly action. This_letter is now in the hands of Attor- ney Devoto. So much for the girl’s story. he ardent plumber sighs for his amorata. He is sad, and when not en- gaged In fixing faucets or repairing leaks he gazes on a $65 engagement ring which he had hoped to place on Miss Ott’s fin- ger. He claims that he has been engaged to her for the past four months; that she would have been his but for her parents. His reason for Inserting the advertise- ment was because she would not release him from his engagement. He said he notified Miss Ott, her parentts and At- torney Devoto that he would take this course if he was not released, and as no word was received from them he took im- mediate action. He sald he regretted to bring pain to Lottie, for he loved her devotedly and would marry her at a minute’s notice. He thinks she would make an ideal housewife, as she 18 a 0od cook and a good girl. He cannot orgive himself for striking her, and ex- cuses his action by saying that when he met her he was unstrung, having just submitted to a painful operatfon on his mouth. He will not forgive Captain Ott nor his wife. He says they are the cause of his misery and he will repay them for their interference. Mr. McCarthy does not hear out the statement of his enemles that he is weak- minded. He is exceptionally bright and ] is secretary of a number of well-known socleties. He is simply In love with Miss gtt and to win her he will go through re. —— Death of Mrs. Gately. Mrs. Alice Gately, wife of Deputy Coro- ner Gately, dled yesterday morning after covery for the 8.

Alice Smith, whe is anxious to be di- vorced from George F. Smith, has, through her attorney, Judge Afken of San Franeisco, filed an interesting complaint. The Smiths were married about six years ago in San Francisco. Smith was a sea captain and made long voyages In whaling ships to the Arctic. In 1394 he went north and since that time his wife bas received no direct communication from him, although she has heard many reports of him from other northern-going captalns. It is on these reports and the fact that she has been deserted and not provided for for five years that Mrs. Smith bases her complaint. The deserted wife has heard that at some Indian village, not reached by pos- tal or telegraph service, her husband has an Indian wife and appears far more con- tented than he did in his §an Francisco home. While she has no absolute proof of the breaking of his marriage vows she has testimony of an oral nature from sev- eral captains who claim to have personal knowledge of the manner in which Cap- tain Smith is now living.
