Charl Fair was the first witness called After he had testified that he had known Joseph Harvey for the past fifteen years and Silva for four or five years, Attorney Meldon asked him: Q.—Mr. Fair, you remember the date in 1900 thai_a petition for an allowance for Mrs. Net- tle R, Craven,as the wife of your father was filed, do you not?

Q.—Well, did you not on April 26, 1900, from New York, send a telegram to Joe Harvey say- ing the money had been sent? An objection was sustained. QUESTIONS STRICKEN OUT. Mr. Fair was asked no questions on cross-examination. A. C. Sharp was the next witness called. He sald he was custodian of the safe de- posit boxes of the Western National Bank at 505 Market street, San Francisco. He held that position in April, 1900, and he bad awecord of every person visiting the place. tell who had deposit boxes in 1900, but the question was vigorously objected to and ruled out. “We want to show,” said Attorney Mel- don, “that Joseph Harvey and Adolph Sflva visited the vaults on a certain date | and that a certain transaction was con- summated at that time and that Adolph Silva was paid Harvey the sum of $20,000 on that day, and further we, desire to show that Harvey said to Silva, ‘T have $20,000 more to be paid on completion of the work.” " Judge Angellotti would not let the ques- tions as presented be recorded and Sharp was_excused. John Creed, constable of Sausalito, tes- ified to having had a conversation with Harvey in which the latter said that Silva had received from him and other sources more than $25000, and that he had him- self paid Silva. since the Legislature met, more than $7000. “Harvey told me,” gave Sflva $4000, but gave me no reason for doing so and never sald anything about the electric light plant.” Irn cross-examination Creed testified: 1 have no love for Silva and I did In con- versation make the assertion that if I was a younger man and thought I could get away I would shoot Silva. 1 also stated while in con- versation that while acting as Silva's body- guard If any one shot him I would claim it was self-defense. OELRICHS ON THE STAND. The first witness of the afternoon ses- sion was Herman Oelrichs. Mr. Oelrichs that he him and had seen him in Judge Troutt's court. Attorney Meldon asked: Q—Mr. Oelrichs, were you not present at a meeting between Mr. Fair and Silva when the matter of paying money to Mr. Silva for services was discussed? was not. Q.—Did you authorize any money to be paid Harvey for Silva? A.—No. Mr. Oelrichs was not questioned further. William W. Campbell testified that Har- vey had said to him on_the ferry-boat Sausalito, on or about {ne 15th of last October, that he had put Silva on his feet: that he had put him in the electric light business: that he had put him in on the Fair will case and that Silva was un- grateful. Campbell was vigorously cross- examined. To-morrow the defense will rest. after having called Miss Florence Silva and ,}dolph Silva, the defendants in the ac- on.

A considerable delegation of Bakersfield business men accompanied the tourists to the oil fields. VIEW STREET FATIR PAGEANT. In the afternoon the carnival pro- | | | gramme for the day was carried out. This was known as Eagles’ and Mardl Gras day. Under the bluest of skies, the tem- perature being agreeable, the pageant of the afternoon was witnessed. Bands ren- dering lively a gorgeous floats, gayly caparisoned horses, vaqueros, the march- ing ranks of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, and a long line of carriages passed in review on Chester avenue before Queen Theresa Lacy and her brilllant court. The.streets were thronged; ban- ners of brilliant hue, interspersed with numerous national flags, decked the lead- ing thoroughfares; the County Court- house was a muss of bright colors; booths in every street, fantastically and gayly decorated, were thronged by visitors. The San Franciscans were honored guests. To them the choicest places wete assigned, and the visitors from the bay enthusiastically applauded the excellent features of the local display. RECEPTION TO VISITORS. Then came an event tending to bind more closely:together fraternally the peo- ple of the oil metropolis and those of the city by the Golden Gate. This took place on the roof garden of the Oil Exchange building. Desiring to leave nothing un- done that might add to the pleasure of the San Franciscans, Bakersfleld residents had arranged for a meeting that partook of the nature of a public reception. Here speeches were made and a letter written in behalf of the visitors by Rufus P. Jen- nings was read. The 'spirit of the occa- sion was fully set forth in the text of this a report of investigation made by Lieu- | letter. which wes as follows: tenzant Cclonel E. P.

While the San Franciscans were on their way to this city last night a meet- ing was called for the purpose of provid- ing speakers to be ready for all emer- gencies that might arise during the ex- cursion. By unanimous consent the tour- ists selected Andrea Sharboro to be chair- man of the delegation and called upon him to preside on all occasions. Sbarboro represents the Manufactuers' and Pro- ducers’ Association. The speakers chosen were: F. J. Symmes, president of the Merchants’ Asgociation; Manager J. A. Filcher of the State Board of Trade; San- ford Bennett of the Merchants’ Exchange, and C. D. Havens of the Chamber of Commerce. Charles Bundschu was elected official poet. GOVERNOR GAGE TALKS. At the gathering this afternoon these speakers and the poet fittingly expressed their fnterest in the progress of Bakers- field, spoke appreciatively of the enter- prise which In a few years had adyanced Bakersfield to its present rank, compli- mented the rustling residents on the beauty of their city and told of the ef- forts San Francisco was making for the advancement of California. Fred Guenther presided at the meeting. Governor Gage came to the garden with a reception committee and band. If Gage had any ldea that he could turn the event into a political boom for himself he was undeceived. The usual perfunctory cheers due to the high State office he fllls wera given. The Governor praised Kern Coun- ty, and during his talk said: *You know I am in favor of everything now.” The. audience understood the political allusion and smiled. 3 Major Rice spoke of Kern County and welcomed the Governor. Then came the San Francisco speakers. Continued ap- plause rewarded the witty sallies of Symmes and Bennett. Bundschu's poem was sung by its author. It caught the audience, which ‘arose and gave him cheers. Filcher's effort was strong and telling. At the close of the meeting the Bakersfield people gave -three cheers for the San Franciscans. 2 BAY CITY MEN ARE PLEASED. This .evening the San Framciscans ex- pressed warmly their appreciation of all that had been done for them here.

A BOSTON LADY Is Marvelously Restored fo Perfect Health. Paine’s Gelery Gompound Was Her Deliverer From Nervous Prostration, Insomnia, Mental Depression, and Weakness of Her Digestive Organism. A Special Message of Com- fort for Sick and De- spondent Women. Mrs. F. L. Bernhardt, 332 Newbury strest, Boston, Mass., found herself in an extremely perflous condition of health after a surgical operation. Her touching story, written for the benefit of other sufferers, is as follows: “It is with a feeling of extreme grati- tude and thankfuiness and a humane de- sire to benefit others that I write out my own experience in the use of Professor Edward E. Phelps’ wonderful preparation, called Paine’s Celery Compound. Owing to a fall from a horse several years ago I became a nervous invalid, and last year I entered a hospital where I was operated upon by a famous New York surgeon. “The surgical operation was successful, but nervous prostration followed. A sum- mer in Newport with the best medical at- tendance failed to restore my nerves to their normal condition. I was absolutely unable to digest any solid food, and this weak condition of my digestive organs, combined with insomnia, caused the deep- est Gepression. A constant tenderness and sorcness in the region of my stomach with a dull headache and extreme weak- ness created a feeling of helplessness from which I was unable to rise. “It was in" this melancholy frame of mind that I chanced to meet a Boston | lawyer, who said to me: ‘I was in almost the condition that you are now im, and after spending hundreds of dollars with- out receiving any beneiit, I was induced | by a friend to give Paine’s Celery Com- | pound a trial, which I did, and it cured me completely when everything else had A% as rather skeptical about -trying a patent medicine, but I ordered a bottle from my druggist and began to take it according to directions.
