JOHN ASHBY TUTT DIES AT WOODLAND, Special Dispatch to The Call WOODLAND, May ‘20.—John Ashby, Tutt, nearly 85 years old and a native of Virginia, died in this city this morning. | | The deceased came to California from Missouri in 1849, He was the first City Assessor of Sacramento and the first Con- stable elected after the organization of | Sacramento County. He served as chief Hé was not only a prominent and leading | citizen, but he was a member of the | Grand Lodge of Masons of California and | one of the most influential members of the order. He was one of the most active organizers of the Grand Lodge of Call fornia, having been the principal delegate from Connecticut Lodge Ro. 7 o the con- vention which organized the Grand Lodge of California, and was elected deputy rand master. He presided over the Grand | fodie "at the first annual communica- tion in May, 1550, at which time he was | chosen grand lecturer. At the second an- nual communication of the Grand Lodge of California, held on May 6 to 9, 1851, inclusive, he was elected most worshipful grand master of the Masons of California. Wwhich office he filled with honor and credit to himself as well as to the entire { body of the craft. The funeral will probably be held or Tuesday, but definite arrangements have Dot yet been made. As Mr. Tutt was such a conspicuous Mason his funeral will probably be held under the auspices of the Grand Lodge of the State. st FIREMEN TO DECORATE GRAVES OF THEIR DEAD Memorial day will be fittingly observed by the San Francisco firemen under the auspices of the Veteran Firemen's Asso- clation. The Exempt Fire Company and the Sons of Exempts have appointed com- mittees to co-operate with the Veterans and arrangements are being perfected rapidly. Chief Bullivan has notified the committees that he will be present and will assist in paying tribute to the brave bters, many of whom lost thelr lives Ve performing their duty. The firemen’s organizations will gather at the firemen’s plat in Laurel Hill Ceme- te v at the noon hour on Memorial day details will be sent to other ceme- feries. Ex-Judge Robert Ferral will de- liver a short oration on “‘The Heroes of the Past,” and tain McDonnell, one of the first members of the present de- partment, will tell why Firemen's day lhuuld be tuated. Then the graves f Frederi Kohler, the first chief of e Gepartment, F. E. Whitney, and David Scannell, his successors, as well as those of other firemen, will be decorated.

Much interest is being manifested in the Butchers' day celebration to be held next Wednesday at Shell Mound Park. The Oakland track has been engaged, as well as the park for the racing events. All the races have been arranged. Much discussion arose as to entries, but this has all been adjusted. The steer race will probably be one of the interesting fea- tures, as an clement of uncertainty re- garding the winner surrounds it. The speediest of steers is likely to take fright and turn back in the middle of the race, allowing the common cow, with the snail walk, to pass under the wire first. The butchers’ horse race. in which each meat carver will drive his own pony, has also attracted attention. Gate prizes are numerous and valuable. All the butcher shops in San Francisco, Oakland and Alameda will close on the diy of the picnic. The crowd is expected to be as usual, the largest of the season. BOLD HIGHWAYMAN ROBS A HOTEL STRONG BOX | With His Revolver Holds Two Clerks at Bay and Escapes With Much Booty. AS CITY, Mo., May 20.—A lone yman entered the corridor of the KAN highw | Coates Hotel at 11:30 o’clock to-night, and after forcing the strong box of the cigar- ind escaped.

He held the night clerk and another employe of the hotel off at the point of a revolver and escaped on a horse that he had tied to the curbing. Night Clerk Gosset claims that the rob- ber's name is Fishback, and that he knows him well. CAPE NOME MACHINERY and SUPPLIES.
