T the Veterans’ Home Assembly Hall, Napa County, last Saturday evening, Frank W. Bacon, the gifted comedian of the Alcazar Theater, played to an audience of seven hundred members of the home. The introduction of professional talent of a high order afforded the audience especial delight. The patriotic spirit displayed by the Alcazar management was appreciated by the veterans. Mr. Bacon, Jane Weid- man Bacon and Bes: Bacon presented “An Easy Liar,” a playlet in one act, and “Budweiser’'s Wooing,” a comedy in one scene. Other interesting features of the performance were violin selections by Miss Elizabeth Kavamagh, accompanist Miss Genevieve C.

LOWE FIRM FOR GOLOR LINE Head of Federation of Women’s Clubs Now in Loos Angeles. LOS ANGELES, April 28.—Mrs. Rebecca Douglas Lowe, president of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, arrived on a special train late to-day. She was met by a local delegation of club women. Mrs. Lowe is of Atlanta, Ga., and is a typical Southern woman. She stands firmly, it is reported, for a strict color line in club life, and, coming direct from the South, is in a position to understand the feeling of most Southern women on this vexed question. She arrived with the Georgla and Kansas delegations. The delegation from Texas arrived via the Santa Fe to-night. The combined delegations from lowa, Nebraska and Minnesota are due at 8:30 o'clock to-mor- row evening. Nothing in connection with the coming blennial meeting is agitating the minds of local clubwomen so much as the presi- dertial candidacy, and just how affairs are to develop along this line is an enig- | Make Strong MEN 'S YOU OVER—It beats t trom dissipation and meglect of the laws can be made better and stronger by using ity into the body, and that does wonders. fering.

Bonnard had disregarded the court's order by failing to pay alimony to his divorced wife, | Marie Bonnard. The latter recelved a le- gal separation from Bonnard a year ago last December after many domestic quar- rels, and the ex-husband was directed by the court to pay $30 a month for the maintenance of his minor children and $0 for attorney's fees, together with a like sum for court expenses during the divorce proceedings. . Bonnard testified to-day that he had aid $437 to his former wife, and that he could not at present further comply with the order of court. He had spent a portion of the funds he had at the time the divorce was granted in attempting to find a location in which he could en- gage in business to earn sufficlent money to pay the alimony. He had spent more money for court expenses In a recent en- deavor to obtain possession of his chil- dren in the Superior Court of this county, A letter written in San Francisco on January 8 from Bonnard to his former wife was read. In it Bonnard _declared that Mrs. Bonnard's attorneys had tried to obtain money from him, but he had been ‘“too crafty” and “too smart.” Bonnard is at present under bonds to appear before a San Francisco court on a charge of sending obscene matter through the malils, he having sent some very ungentlemanly letters to his for- mer wife.

Burdette are reticent about being quoted for publica- tion, but mn.n{ and various are the state- ments regarding the stand that the Los Angeles clubwomen will take, Latest re- ports from the Friday Morning Club are to the effect that the delegates “are not prepared to urge her claims.”” A meeting of the delegates from this organization has been held and the question discussed freely, although no’definite declsion was reached. 5 3 Mrs. Kate ¥. Bulkley, president of the California’ State ‘Federation, arrived in Los Angeles from Oakland to-day. She was accompanied by Mrs. J. W. Orr, s'#e secretary of correspondenée, and Dr. Ddrothea Moore of the California Club. They were met at’the train by a commit- tee of local club women, and Mrs. Bulk- ley and Mrs, Orr were driven @t once to the ‘home of Mrs, Mary Stilson on Ken- sington, road. The rumer to the effect that Mrs. Bulk- ley will oppose Mrs. Robert J. Burdette's candidacy for president of the General Federation is not sustained by the stan that the Oakland woman takes, and Mrs. Bulkley showed her friendship for Mrs. Burdette by attending the reception given in the Jatter's henor this afternoon at Ebell Hall. £ » “Mrs. Burdette,” she said, “is well liked in San Francisco and Oakland, and if of the State I do not know it.” WILLIAMS, Ariz., April 28—A special train arrived from the Kast last night, bringing delegates to the Federation of Women's Clubs from Minnesota, Nebpas- ka, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Iowa. They went out to the Canyon and upon their return proceeded to Los Angeles. there is opposition to her from our part | CARMEN CALL VINING'S BLUFF Employes Discharged by Manager Refuse to Be Put Off. Change of Mind Results and Men Will All Be ! Reinstated. The former employes of the United | Rallroads who were discharged for ex- pressing union sentiments enjoyed a vic- tory over General Manager Vining yes- terday. The aftermath of the strike fur- nishes few incidents as interesting as that which transpired in the offices of the street railway company yesterday. Twenty-elght of the discharged em- ployes, led by President Cornelius of the carmen’s unfon, appeared at Vining's of- | fice yesterday afternoon for the purpose of filng their applications for reinstate- ment. The men met at the Turk-street Temple and marched to the Wells-Fargo buwlaing. ’The party sent in a card t Vimng requesting a conference. After a | few minutes’ delay the men were told by | 2 messenger to call another day. The carmen discussed the matter ameng | themselves, and during their conference Vining appeared upon the scene. He } brusquely intormed the men that he was | t0o busy to see them. “I'm t0o busy to take up your matter | to-day,” he said. ‘“Come back to-mor- | row.” Vining returned to his office, and with muttered imprecations upon their lips some of the men left the hallway. A few remained, firmly resolved to settle the matter with the defiant manager. “He is up to_his old tricks,” said one | of the men. “That is _all I could get| out of him when I was fired. Eyery time I called to find out why 1 was let out | he would send word for me to call again.” “Only a week ago last Saturday nhe re fused to see us,” another remarked. * thought the strike had taught him a les- son.”” VINING CHANGES HIS MIND. President Cornelius was appealed to, and he decided that the matter should be settled at once. He instructed the men to wait outside, and called upon Vining. The two cfficials held a long con- | ference, the result of which was that Vining reconsidered his action, and in- | strycted Chief Clerk Jessup to take the names of the applicants who asked for reinstatement. The men departed in bet- ter humor. Some of the men hdd been out of em- ployment since last September, others | only a few weeks. Those who flled ap- ications were: Richard Cornellus, | Seavy, James Carroll, B: B. Burke, | M. V. Burke, W. T. June, George Ding- wail, A, C. Castro, M. Campbell, A. C. Belknap, J. D. Wilscn, J. Giguere, H, C. Bond, A. V. Shaw, R. N. Shurtleff, A. Kunst, H. C. Wallace, A. Sorensen, 3 Miller, O. A. Kittinger, M. M. Gopche- vitch, Willlam Goldkull, M. Martenson, C. H. Clair, H, Eiken, H. Johnson, R. H. Keyes, W. 8. Neal and W. G. Burton. When Cornelius rejoined his associates he stated that Vining had volunteered to reinstate him to his old position on the Sacramento-street line. He had accepted | the offer with the understanding that he | be allowed a few days in which to close sainy private business of a pressing na- ure. Of -the twenty-eight who filed applica- tions the majority will be notified of their reinstatement to-day. It is understood that some of the applications will be in- | Guiired into before final answers are givel, | Under the terms of agreement with the union carmen the company has until June 1 in which to reinstate discharged em- ployes, but it has been decided not to wait the limit of time. All employes who were discharged because of their union afliations will be placed back on their runs without loss of time. MAYOR IS GRATEFUL. In response to the resolution of confi- dence adopted by the Board of Super- visors Mayor Schmitz transmitted the fol- lowing communication to the board yes- terday: To the honorable the Board of Supervisors— Gentlemen: - Permit me sincerely to thank you for your warm and friendly resolution of in- dorgement of my course during the late strike, and to express my appreciation of the confi- denos thus manifested by you in me. In times of great responsibility the genlus of our Ame ican people for consolidated action In the pub- lic_interest may, as in this case, safely be relied upon to efface party lines and personal differences. You have again justified - this Américan characteristic. Again thanking you very sincerely, 1 am, yours, & April 28, 5. E. SCHMITZ, Mayor. The Mayor's reputation as a mediator between striking ‘employes and their em- ployers has enjoyed a boom by reason of his conduct in the carmen’s strike. The labor unions .which have grievances are calling upon him for hjs good services. Among those is the Bakeérs' Union, which declared a boycott against Roediger & Loesch, a Larkin-street firm. The prin- cipals in the boycott called upon the Mayor yesterday and asked him to act as mediator and adjust the differences ex- isting between the firm and ithe union. The Mayor consented to do so, and the matter will be inquired into to-day. Little of interest developed among the carmen yesterday. The men are wonder- ing when Vining will step out and Huff assume, the management of the system. Huff is now in Baltimere and is expected to return within two weeks. Vining has informed the directors of the company that he is willing to resign when Te- | quested to do so, but the chances are that | he will continue in charge until June 1. CONGRATULATES CRRMEN.
