A song recital was given last evening in Sherman & Clay Hall by Miss Christine La Barraque, assisted bv Hother Wismer, Frederick Maurer, Daniel Sherin Jr.; Miss Alice Dunn and Alfred J. Kelleher. It was a pleasing and well arranged enter. tainment. Miss La Barrague is blind, but notwithstanding this obstacle to her musi- | cal progress she gave evidence of con- | scientious study and of sensibility, which is the soul of all real music. She sang | two songs, “Without Thee,” by D'Harde- lot, and ““When the Heart Is Young,” by | Dudley Buck: a number from “Der Freischutz,” an Alpine melody by Weker- lin, and Gounod’'s “Ave Maria.” In the last number she was accompanied by Mr. Wismer, Mr. Kelleher and Miss Dunn. In this variety of selections her voice was exhibited to good advantage. She was thrice recalled and her performanco caused much enthusiasm. Miss Dunn was a clever and pleasing uccompanist and added much to the excellence of the enter- R d Mr. M: Mr. Wismer and Mr. Maurer performe with fine finish two movements of & suije | in A major by Goldmark, and a Spohr | dagio, E flat, op. 145.

Large Number of Papers Bearing on Man’s Ailments and Their Cures Are Read and Dis- cussed. —_—— SACRAMENTO, April 16.—The annual | meeting: of the Medical Society of the | | State of Californla was opened at 10 | o'clock this forenoon in the Senate cham- ber at the State Capitol by President Thomas Ross. Mayor George H. Clark, who was ill, sent Colonel H. Weinstock to deliver an address of welcome. Dr. ‘Ross In his annual address spoke ! of the progress in surgery and medigine | in the past twenty-five' years, giving fig- | ures to show the gain which has been | made through modurn investigation and discovery. Dr. J. A. McKee, president of the Sacramento Society for Medical Im- provement, contributed an address of wel- come on behalf of his society. Dr. Wil- liam Z. Briggs, chairman of the commit- | tee of arrangements, also bade the phy- sicians welcome. The afternoon session of the State Med- i ical Society opened with a discussion on bubonic plague, a paper being read by Dr. David Powell of Marysville, who gave something of the nistory of the disease. Dr. H. D. Lawhead of Woodland followed | with. a paper entitled “A review of the chemical features and treatment of the | plague,” which was largely technical. A paper was ready by Dr.-W. H. Kel- logg, bacterlologist of the Board of | Health of San Francisco, on "“The_ Pathol- | ogy and Bacteriology of Bubonic Plague.” 'he paper described minutely the piague ! baciili, which Dr. Kellogg claimed were | much better known and understood than | { baciili of other diseases much more com- | mon. 7The germs of the disease, he said, wer> soon killed by sunshine and drying | | winds, but remained alive for long periods | in dark and damp localitie: The bacil- | lus caused plague. The £ was as well i established as that the earth was round. The Prophylaxis of Bubonic Plague’ was the subject of a paper by Dr. 8. J. S. i Rodgers of Marysville, read by Dr. Rodg- ers Jr. The paper dealt with the treat- ment of plague and with the anti-plague serum which has been used with success, | and also explained how the dread disease | could be and is spread. . | "Dr. J. J. Kinyoun, Federal Quarantine | Ofticer of San Francisco, opened the dis- | cussion of the plague papers and said that owing to the long period of inaction of the disease the medical fraternity was prone to_treat it lightly. Dr. W. A. Briggs offered a series of res- i oluticns censuring the State Board of | Health, which were referred to the execu- | tive committee, as was a similar resolu- | tion offered by Dr. J. H. Parkinson of Sac- ramento. | r. M. Henderson of Sacramento read a paper for Dr, P. K. Brown of San Frarcisco entitled “‘Leucopenia in Acute | Septicemia.” T'he papers on “Actinomycosis,” by Dr. F. D. Bullard of Los Angeles; “Sarcoma of the Stomach,” by Dr. S. P. Black of Los Angeles; ‘‘Rectal Ulcer, with Sec- ondary Infection of the Liver,” by Dr. ‘Willlam Opnals of San Francisco; ‘“‘Col- lide Cancer of Omentum,” by Dr. G. T. Brady and Dr. P. K. Brown of San Francisco, were read by title and turned over to the publication committee. At the evening session papers were pre-* sented by Dr. H. B. Ellis of Los Angeles on “Empyema of the Frontal Sinus,” Dr. M. W. Frederick of San Francisco on “Avral Gymnastics,” Dr. K. Pischel of San Francisco on “‘Acute Affections of the Maxillary Sinus” and by Dr. R. D.

The engagement is one of more than ordinary note, owing to the prominence and popu- larity of the parties. They are Miss Francesca Vallejo, granddaughter of the late General M. G. Vallejo, whose name is one of the most familiar in the early history of the State, and Dr. Charles D. McGettigan, who has rapidly risen to a place in the front rank of San Francisco physiclans. Though the ddctor and his handsome fiancee have known each other since child- hood and have always been much in each other's company, their engagement will be a surprise and a pleasing one to their friends. The couple were children to- ether in Vallejo, their respective fami- ies being close friends, and it seems that J. C. STUBBS OCCUPIES THE LECTURE PLATFORM Speaks to Large Audience on “Soldier Spirit” and ‘“Success in Life.” An interesting address was delivered by J. C. Stubbs, third vice president of the Southern Pacific Company, at the parlors of the Central Methodist Episcopal Church . on Mission street last night. A large audience of both sexes was present and listened to the address with marked interest. Mr. Stubbs reviewed the events of the civil war and the late conflict with Spain. and dwelt upon the ‘“soldier spirit” dis- played by the citizens of America. He claimed that this spirit was shown in all walks of life and that it was displayed, not for the hope of future promotion or reward, but for self-pride and consecience. Mr. Stubbs said that all great men of history had woa their fame unselfishly. He eulogized Grant, Lincoln, Garfield and President McKinley and begged the young men of to-day to follow in the footsteps of the heroes of America. i s in lite,” said Mr. Stubbs, “miz‘n‘;:"the doing’ of ordinary_things in an extremely +well manner. ~Success is not the doing of great things. A steady and constant striving to overcome the ob- Stacles of the day will lead to success in life and happiness.” L] COMMERCI L AL Co B 0_gn LAPRR R Bt S o o0y — e Do(Series B)107% — NCN Do (1908) ....110 — NRof Do (1912) ... — — NRot SPC lst g 58.106% — NPR SP Br R fs...13215183% NPR SV Water 6a.118 — 3 6 L &iswaion Do 3 ik i G 5.110% — o Oak Tr Co 85,115 116 |Stkn G & B 6e.100 — WATER STOCKS.

Miss Francesca Vallejo's name and fea- tures are familiar throughout the State, she having been one of the most goaj)ullr of the Vallejo girls, upon whom ifor- nians looked with pride. She has been glven places of honor at many public etes, and_was queen of the splendid | Monterey festival. She is of sweet dis- position, vivacious and a fine conversa- tionalist. In appearance she is tall and | slender, having the dark hair and bright | eyes that are gifts of Castile. Miss Vallejo was educated at College San Rafael and is one of the most accom- plished musicians that ever graduated | from that institution. She is a daughter | of Dr. Platon Vallejo of Vallejo. | Dr. C. D. McGettigan is a son of Ed- ward McGéttigan, formerly of Vallejo, and a power in Democratic State politics.

PIPE-LIN GRADE NEARS SHN DIEGD Great Otay Water System Is Being Hurried to Completion. LA ‘Will Insure a Plentiful Supply for the Southern City and the Adja w$ Country LA Special Dispatch to The Calf. SAN DIEGO, April 16.—In its prepara- tions to carry out tne contract whereby the city of San Diego is to be supplied with water from the Otay reservoir the Southern California sMountain Water Company has been crowding the work un- til the graders who are preparing the grade for the immense pipe line are now within sight of the city. In less than three weeks they "will have the grade finished. The pipe line, which is to be made of redwood, bound with steel ban like a long barrel,” will be built on the grade and not made in sections and laid, as is steel or iron pipe. Between 250,00 and 3,000,000 feet of carefully selected lum- ber has been,delivercd at the drying yards on Coronado beach znd 2,008,000 pounds of steel bands comprise the tirst order for that sort of mater: The reservoir whe is to come is located on the Otay River which is dammed a narrow gorge the mesa, backing up the water until it covers an immense tcrritory. The water leaves the reservoir by a five-foot tunnel through the surround.ng hill and the steel lining of the tunnei will be fastened di- rect to the forty-inch wooden pipe. The pipe will remain that size until it leaves the Otay Valley, and the branches taken off thers to conduct the water to Otay, Coronado Heights and Coronado Beach pe being made smaller ches tne Sweetwater ines are expected to the water supply | diminish the quantity of water so that a thirty-inch pipe will be sufficient to con- duct the supply into this city. Here it is to be deiivered, ding to comtract, at the reservoir on University Heights. This reservoir is 378 feet above the sea level and it is possible that a different - site will be obtained, which will give the city a pressure of twenty-flve feet more. Though the distance from the Otay reservoir to the city is not more than twenty-five miles, it is considered quite a long route over which to bring water under pressure. The ditch in which tas pive line will be laid is carefully graded to insure a solid foundation throughout the line’s entire length, but it is unlike a railroad grade, because it is possible ta follow the general contour of the hills There are four tunnels on the line, ail of them through the hiils which separals the Otay Valley from Telegraph Canyon. The four aggregate a mile and a quarter in length and night and day shifts have been kept at work at either end of each tunnel. The buflding of the line insures the city a bountiful supply of water from the mountain reservoirs of the company and the contract binds the company to sup- ply all the water needed by the city up to inches a day. The essential part of the contract to supply the water is found in the fact that the whole hinges on the voting of bonds by the city next Saturday for the urchase of the distributing systems now n use In the city. Thus far no opposition to the bonds has developed. The distri- buting systems to be purchased are those now in use by the rival companies doing business in the city and will form on= complete system for the use of the city The pipe line being built will be able t» handle more water than the contract call for, se that San Diego will not ba in any danger of a shortage of water in tha future. JUDGE TROUTT DENIES COBURN’S PETITION Joseph M. Coburn failed to appear in Judge Troutt's court yesterday morning to offer proofs In support of his petition for the probate of a “last will" of the late Mrs. Almira S. Townsend. In con- sequence the court denied the petition on the ground that it was a sham and fraud. Whep the case was cailed Attorney Herman J. Custer, representing Coburn, whom even the mandate of a subpoena had failed to bring to court, asked for a continuance for four weeks, “that he might procure depositions from the East.” ‘Attorney Matt Sullivan, representing Mrs. Ella F. Murray, decedent’s daughter, objected to a continuance. The request for a continuance was denied, and Custer was called upon to furnish his proof. He had none, and hence the order dexryl:s the petition was entered on the grow stated. The denial of Coburn's petition practi- cally frees the estate from litigation. The greater portion of the estate, which is valued at $600,000, has already. been dis- tributed to Mrs. Murray by Judge Troutt, only the sum of $25.000 being withheld to pay any debts against the estate which may hereafter be nfipmved by the court. Sullivan & Sullivan have represented Mrs. Murray, and within less than a year have practically closed up the estate, a record for quick work seldom equaled in a Cali- fornia court. —_——————— Spencer Eddy Reported Engaged.
