SAN JOSE, May 20.—The late carnival committee was severely arraigned by the Pastors’ Union at its meeting this morn- ing for permitting the “Midway Plais- ance” show to run during the carnival. Various ministers joined in the discussion, and the ears of the carnival authorities would be still tingling had they heard the sharp censure of the clergy. Rev. H. Melville Tenney, who instituted the cru- sade against the shows, was thanked for hig bold and manly protest inst the exhibits, which were characterized as so f,’" oralizing as to mar the Carnival of R0ses, A resolution that was adopted unani- mously declared: That while giving full credit to the commit- tee for its arduous labors in promoting such a magnificent floral exhibition as the Carnival of Roses, the admitting into the midst of it the grossly vulgar, indecent, demoralizing and contaminating “midway’’ shows with gam- bling booth appendix cannot be t0o | severely condemned.

SAN JOSE, May 20.—Ex-Constable Fred Begerow, who shot and killed Joseph Cech and August Berger at the brewers’ picnic last July, must face a jury for the fifth time on a charge of murder. All the other trials have resulted in disagreements.

ACROSS THE SEA INFRAIL GANOE Two Adventurers About to Start on Perilous Voyage. From Vancouver to Sydney in a Thirty-Eight-Foot Craft. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. VANCOUVER, B. C.,, May 20.—Captain Voss of Victorla and Norman Luxton, & newspaper man, will leave here to-mbr- row morning by the early tide on a trip that {s certain to provide many thrilling experiences. They will cross the Pacific in an open boat. If they arrive in Syd- ney, Australia, on Christmas day it will be more than a fulfillment of the present expectations. Voss.is an old sea captain. He claims that the thirty-eight-foot Indian canoe of cedar will, with careful navigation, be as safe as an ordinary schooner of 300 tonms. The ‘canoe is the best model that could be purchased from the coast Indians. It is nearly five feet wide at the top. For near- ly its whole length the little vessel is decked in so that it will be practically impossible for her to ship any amount of water. There is'a little cabin amidships, and altogether the hold of the boat is so tightly inclosed with skins as to be almost water-tight. The boat has three masts, schooner rigged, and a double set of sails is.carried. The outfit is fully as com- plete, comparatively, as that of the larg- est salling ships. The main part of the provisions are stowed away in fore and aft bulkheads, as are guns and photo- graphing apparatus. Luxton is a crack shot, and they expect to dp a good deal of hunting among the South Sea Islands. to replenish their larder. The two carry a sheet-iron stove and a complete cooking outfit, with coal as bal- last. They will stop at Honolulu and New Guinea and other islands. Captain Voss is well acquainted with the South Seas and his experience will be valuable. They will stay at Sydney and Melbourne for several weeks and will then. set sail for Delagoa Bay, in South Africa, where they will_pass some time. Then they will go to England, exhibit their Istrange war canoe and the trophies they will natur- :lly gain in two years of travel and return ome. i CUPID WELDG TWD FAMMILIES Father and Kour Daugh- ters Wed Mother and Four Sons. Remarkable Case of Inter- marriage Recorded in Butte County, Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, May 20.—A story of the re- markable intermarriage of two families in the northern part of California is re- lated by ex-Constable Matt Coschina, who has just returned home from a prospect- ing four. A mother and four sons marry- ing a father and four daughters, and all living happily under one roof, is a condi- tion rarelv recorded. In Paradise Valley, above Oroville, Cos- china became acquainted with a Cornish- man pamed J. Weer and was invited to the latter’s house for dinner. There he found the miner’s wife, a buxom French- woman. Four pretty, plump young ladies gathered around the table and by them sat four sturdy voung men. After introductions the similarily of names and features was remarked upon by Coschina, and then Miner Weer related a portion of family history which makes this household the most remarkable one in the State and shows that a family g::ndl!e surely exists in the valley that s its name. ‘Weer and his wife had but recently been married and both had families before they met. Weer had four grown daughters, all pretty Cornish girls, with the health and color of ‘the old country. Mrs. Weer, whose first husband was named Malarin, hoasted four grown sons, all sturdy, well develcped young mountaineers, who were the pride of her heart. As soon as Weer and Mrs. Malarin were married they set about uniting the remainder.of their fam- illes. One by one the young men selected their choice from the maidens. en Coschina visited the Weers three of these weddings had taken place and the fourth son and fourth daughter were already be- trothed.
