THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1901. CALIFORNIA LEADS THE COUNTRY IN THE HORTICULTURAL DISPLAY Orchard and Vineyard Exhibit of This State Occupies One-Third of All Floor Space Given to This Line, and Embraces Fruits, Wines and Other Products That Are Admired by All Visitors prominence of their State at this exposi- tion, and when I am told it is all done without a cent of State aid I marvel and wonder whether it is that they know their business better or whether God has made them different in the matter of pushing thelr powers than the average of other Americans. They have somehow got even the barbers in Buffalo to saying that “if you don't see California’s "exhibit you don’t see the show,” and half ‘the strangers are impressed. with the idea that the horticultural building belongs to the State of California.

The ipstalla- tlon of California’s exhibit is striking beautiful and the great varlety of prod- layed, as well as their size and quality, combine to make the show of this State very popular. California not only has the products to e an interesting show, but it seems to have artists or men who have the art of showing their goods to the best advantage. And vet, as though an artistic show of their su- rior products were not attractive enough. the Californians give away from one to two thousand pounds of delicious seeded raisins in quarter pound sample packages each day to the passing multi- tude, and they maintain a booth pre- sided over by handsome young ladies in uniform in which they prepare California prunes in all the hundred and one edible ways and give them, along with a neat and costly receipt book telling how they are prepared, to all the visiting dames who care to partake. 1 have been impressed with the kill and en- the SECTION OF SPLENDID WINE AT BUFFALO.

PHOENTX, Aug. 18.—Juan Flores, aged 16 years, on Saturday afternoon shot and instantly killed Angel Movoyoque. Both are Yaqui Indians and reside in a Yaqui settlement eight miles from Tempe. Angel was sitting in a chair with his arms folded, when the boy, without warn- ing, pulled out a revolver and shot him. The bullet entered his upper lip to the left of the nose and ranged upward, but did not pass through his head. The boy had been drinking, but those present claim that the victim had not. Immediately after the shooting the boy tried to escape and ran for the brush, but had only gone about fifty feet when he was caught by one of the bystanders. His hands were tied behind his back and his feet tied together. His wrists were tied so tight that his hands were swollen to nearly twice their natural thickness when he was released by Constable Ben Cummings. The boy tells a story of extreme cruelty. He has a scar on his nose which he claims Is the result of a blow given himn by Angel with a wine bottle several years ago and says Angel has whipped him on sundry occasions. He also says that An- gel threatened to take him off his horse and thrash him. The dead man bore a good reputatio! Dangerous Anarchist Under Arrest.

Seaver found himself physically and mentally unable to undertake the descent of Mount Wil- son, and was put under the influence of an anesthetic and carried down on a lit- ter. Seaver is a graduate of a noted Eastern university, a student of geology and bot- any, a lover of the sublime in nature, but withal a_very modest as well as a very nervous young man. On Saturday, August 10, Seaver started up the trail astride a ourro. For the first five or six miles of the ascent Seaver’s love of the picturesque and the sclentific was abundantly requited. Climbing high- er there came upon his senses that pecu- liar giddiness that the rarified air of greater altitudes produces on some deli- cately organized temperaments. The trail began to narrow and wind its tortuous way about the sheer wall of mountain, and beneath yawned canyons gaping out like pits of death. Fears the Dizzy Heights. It was here that Seaver began to ex- perience that strange phenomenon of the mind which frequently lays its hold upon those who stand on dizzy precipices, im- pelling them to fling themselves into the pths beneath. Pursued by this terrible e, reeling with dizziness at the depths h opencd at his side and trembling in every limb, Seaver ciutched his saddle bows. With face averted from the chasms he clung .with might and main to his burro and was carried the two remaining miles into camp by the surefooted beast, suffering the while all the mental torture which an imaginative | a ob- | g s | and_agonies of e | mind is capable. Even on the pleasant plateau, with its white tents and their cheerful occupants, | Painter plants. and the fear is expressed that if any | demonstration be made against the men | Seaver's composure failed to return. Special Dispatch to The Call Every view tended to intensify the strain upon his overwrought nerves. By Sun- day afternoon his condition had become so serious that he knew that it would be physically impossible for him to under- take the downward journey alone. Guides were available at the camp, but he could not bring himself to endure the mental torture of looking once more upon the sights that had wrought such havoc upon his imagination. The fear that the dread- ful impulse to leap into space would seize him once more and lead to his self- destruction was ever present in his agi- tated brain. Summons for a Physician. It was while confronted with these con- ditions, yet realizing that the descent was inevitable sooner or later, that Seaver hit upon the most novel of recorded plans for escaping the dreaded danger while in transit. Word was sent to the foot of the trail, and a telephone message forwarded to Pasadena summoning Dr. Charles Lock- wood to the mountain top and requesting him to bring the necessary help to carry a man down to its base. It was late in the evening when the doctor received the call and it was impossible to go up the trail Defore the following morning. Other men were communicated with and requested to supply the men and a stretcher. Early Thursday morning Dr. Lock- wood and three assistants started up the ‘Wilson trail on burros, packing upon cne beast a litter such as is used by the Red Cross ambulance corps. At the top of the trail, and before entering the camp, the litter was. left out of sight so as to aveid causing any sensation among the peoplc. After a brief talk with Seaver, Dr. Lockwood administered to him a suffi- clent dose of ether to render him partially unconscious. He was taken by the arm and auickly led out of camp, but by the time he had reached the litter the drug had taken effect and he collapsed. His Hmp form was placed upon the stretcher and with a strong man holding the han- dles at either end he was carried down the first two miles of the trail. The way was steep and the burden heavy, but the third man alternated with his fellows at the handles and good speed was made. After that part of the way which had made such an impression upon Seaver's SCIENTIST FEARS DIZZY HEIGHTS AND IS CARRIED DOWN MOUNTAIN Physician Administers Ether to a Geologist on the Summit of Mount - Wilson in Southern California in Order That He May Make the Descent of the Crags Without Ending His Life by Leaping mind had been passed he was allowed tq come out from under the influence of the anasthetic. The drug seemed to have quieted his nerves, and he was able ta sit up and soon to walk. With a man on either side of him he walked .down the remaining miles of the trail and was driven to this city.

SANTA CRUZ, Aug. 18—This morning | Judge Lucas F. §mith of the Superior | Court met with a painful accident. While playing with a dog at his residence he ac- cidentally fell from a porch, striking L side_against a banister. He will be co fined to his home for several days.

The strain of the strike is telling upon’| the physical strength of President Shaffer. | He was ill to-day and kept to his bed most of the time. He declined to s=e any of the many callers who sought him, and hiz_wife, who met them in his stead, ex- plained that he was worn out and sick must have rest in order to carry on work. Tt is expected that he wiil be |} at the strike headquarters as usual to- | merrow. but his friends are afraid that if | the strike should be prolonged he will | break down. Ever since the strike began | he has given his personal attention tu[ every detail of it and although he has had | istance and the counsel of his assist- ants, the real responsibility has rested upor him. He was not well on Saturday awl in discussing his health said: “I simply must not get sicl rot time to spare at this stage.

There was talk to-night of the possibil- ity of the extension of the strike to other trades. The structural ironworkers and | bricklayers are becoming directly inter- | ested through the question of handling | material made by the United States Steel | Corporation. The strike leaders say that they have the absolute promise of support from those two trades, and that they will refuse to randle non-union made mate- rial. They cite a number of instances where the structural men and brickma- so_ns;‘have shown their sympathy and spirit. "Ben 1.

A fight between union and non-union men on the streets last night, coupled with the action of the steel company in obtaining lodgings for the new men throughout the town. has great- y incensed the strikers. Sheriff Noragen and Deputy Chris Breck arrived from Lisbon at 7 o’clock to assist the local po- lice in maintaining order throughout the night. e UNION MEN ARE DISCHARGED.
