Many are now in the Yosemite and not a few have gone to Shasta County and other counties in the northern part of the State for brief visits prior to beginning their homeward journey. Pathetic Case of Rev. Mr. Sprinkle. A pathetic case which was brought to the attention of Chairman W. H. Waste of the recention committee is that of Rev. R. L. Sprinkle, who is lying seri- ously ill in the Bellevue Sanitarium. Rev. Mr. Sprinkle is a Methodist pastor of Fort Ogden, Florida, and head of the Epworth League of the De Soto district in the ex- treme southern part of Florida. He was | chosen as a_delegate to the Epworth Con- vention and arrived here with pleasant ! anticipations last Tuesday morning. While crossing the Sierras he caught a severe cold, which brought on an attack of inflammatory rheumaiism in the knee joints. Instead of attending the sessions | of the convention the reverend gentleman | was taken to the sanitarium, where he I = Association building to-day, where the final business will be concluded.

B. King struck the | first note of a fantasia. Within a few minutes the galleries, the space given up to the chorus during the convention and the auditorium chairs began to fiil with the admiring muititude. The applause that greeted cach number was most gen- erous. A number of grand choruses were included in the extempore programme and all were received with fervor. Organist King was at nis best, and his§ manipula- tion of the insirument was all that could be desired. It was after 10 o’clock when the final note was struck and the audience | dispersed.

BAKERSFIELD, July 23.—There is a| stupendous project on foot, having for its object the consolidation into one pow- erful concern of all the oil interests of Kern County, with a view of controlling the output of the fields and so regulating the price as to bring the producer a fair compensation on his product. W. S. Por- ter of Los Angeles is the ostensible pro- moter of the plan, though it is said that a number of the strongest companies in this county are giving the support. Already articles operating companies, and these, it re- ported, have been signed by many of the | leading concerns. It is the determination to have the chief feature of the new commercial enterprise the acquirement by purchase of oil pro erties, oil stocks, pipe lines, tanks, pum i oil contracts and other prop necessary for carrying on the ol ness, and to accomplish the manage- ment, operation and disposition of the property and assets by one agenc The | capital stock will not be less than $§75,000,- | 000 nor more than $100,000,000. Although the idea is a new one, a great deal of interest is shown in the movement, which may result in solving the problem surrounding the oil market. . SEATTLE ATTORNEY WEDS IN SAN JOSE James J.

Company, Chmoop, Tenn. Los Angeles Theatrical Man Weds a Miss of Twenty. - Snecial Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, July 23.—Colonel Robert J. Northam of Los Angeles was married here to-day to Miss Leotla Keyll Stoney, a pretty typewriter from the Angel City. There is a tinge of romance to the mar- 52 vears of age and his bride but 20. In procuring the license the groom gave as his native State Pennsylvania and hers Kansas. Colonel Northam and Miss Stoney ar- rived here at 8:30 o'clock this morning and at once went to the residence of the Colo- nel's brother, E. F. Northam, on Willow street. A license was procured and Dr. C. H. Mockbridge of the Episcopal church performed the ceremony in the presence of immediate relatives. A short honey- moon will be spent in the central part of the State. LOS ANGELES, July 23.—The marriage of Colonel Northam and Miss Stoney is the sequel to w pretty romance. Miss Stoney has been engaged in this city for some time as a stenographer. She lost her position two or three months ago and applied to Manager Wyatt of the Los An- geles Theater for a chance to go upon the stage, Colonel Northam is Wyatt's part- ner if the theatrical business, and through this connection he mét Miss Stoney. e at once became an ardent suitor for her hand, and that success has rewarded him is evidenced by the news that comes from San Jose. Colonel Northam lost his for- mer wife some months ago, which ac- counts for the fact that his wedding to Miss Stoney was 80 quietly celebrated away from their home city. Colonel Northam is the capitalist who recently sold the splendid Mesa ranch at Bolsa Chico upon terms which gave to the deal the nature of a life insurance proposition. The Western Coast Land and Water Company was the purchaser and the ultimate consideration is to be $100,000. Under the contract a cash pay- ment: of $10,000 is required, which has 5- commenced taking it and began My Mrs. LIZZIE MANNELL. o8’ Advisory | riage, owing to the fact that Northam is | its rendezvous. OF SMUGGLERS Cutter McCulloch Sails for the Channel Islands. Sneclal Dispatch to The Call. SANTA BARBARA, July 23.—The United States revenue cutter McCulloch sailed this morning for the Channel Islands, to break up a gang of smugglers | that is believed to be making the islands It is said that the oper- ations of the smugglers have assumed large proportions, and the Governmeit | vessel may be kept busy for a time in | ridding the channel of them. The gang | has been clever in evading the Govern- ment officials, and is believed to have a well regulated shore system to handle | contraband goods. | Revenue Collector Greenwell of this| place has been cruising among the Islands " for some time. Storles of smuggling have been reported here from time to time, and a watch has been kept, but so far no catches have been made. Secret service men have been working on the case and there are several suspects in this city. Al ek @ ready been made, the balance to be paid $5000 each year, with interest at 4 per cent. The unusual condition is that if Colonel Northam's death should occur at any time prior to the completion of the | payment of $100,000, the sum then paid | shall be deemed full settlement for the ranch and a clear deed passed according- ly. In other words, if Colonel Northam should die within the present yvear the purchasing corporation would secure the ranch for $10,000, next year for $15,000 and so on. But as the colonel now appears there seems little doubt of his living the entire elghteen vears required for him to receive the full $100,000. Jenkins Wins at Wrestling.
