Exeter, Linds:y and Porter- ville Entertain the Tourists. SRR Special Dispatch to The Call. PORTERVILLE, May 24—The Tulare Ccunty eitrus excursion put in a busy day, starting early from Visalla, whose hospitable citizens had done themselves proud in the entertainment of the guests, and traversing during the day by train and carriages some thirty miles of orange country. The groves of BExeter, Lindsay apd Porterville were inspected with con- stantly growing admiration. The start for Exeter was made at half- past 7 o'clock. J. F. Hixson of Fresno, division freight and passenger agent for the Southern Pacific, whose care for the | ccmfort of the excursionists has left | nothing to be desired, was still in charge of the party. At Exeter the excursionists were met by the officers and executive committee of the local Board of Trade, of which H. R. Stephens is president, Henry Newman | Vice president, Thara Ostrander treasurer and Fred Page secretary. The executive committee consists jof H. R. Stephens, C."W. Preston, D. R. Griffith F.

Exeter is eleven miles east of Visalla, on the extreme edge of the San Joaquin Valley. It is well known to tourists as the railroad station affording the most convenient starting point for Kings River Canyon and all the notable Sierra attra tions to which the canyon is the gatewa AMONG THE ORANGE GROVES. Starting from Exeter about $ o'clock, | the excursionists were given a twenty- | mile drive, lasting until noon and ending at Lindsay. The latter town is but seven miles from Exeter, but the route taken wound southeastward, in and out along the hills, where the fringe of orange greves g beings widened and lengthened year by yedr, until the sanguine residents fee near to them in time the realization of the dream that their groves shall rival in beauty and expanse the famous groves of Riverside and Redlands, of Pomona and Pasadena.

If one were to ask all the nervous, fretted, jaded, fagged-out women who work day aftér day, hardly able to keep on their feet—if a person were to them what their trouble was, one would say dyspepsia, another nervous prostra- tion, “another female weakness, and 50 on. The fact {s, however, that they nearly all have the same disease, and that dis- ease is chronic catatrh. Thousands of people have chronic ca- tarrh and do not know it. They realize that they are they do not suspect that their chronic catarrh. If they have catarrh of the stomach, they call it dyspepsia; if they have gen- eral catarrhal débility, they call it per- vous prostration; if they have catarrh of the liver or kidneys, they say they are bilious or have kidney disease; and if they have catarrh of the pelvic organs they name it female weakness. The truth is, all these organs are sub- ject to catarrh, and the land is full of toiling women, half invalids, who have chrcnic catarrh in some stage or form of some of these organs. 3 Women from all parts of the United States bear testimony to the fact that Peruna cures female catarrhal diseases.

President Frank Hinman of the senior class delivered the opening address. In part his remarks were as follows: In behalf of the senfors I welcome you to this eleventh annual commencement. faculty, alumni, students, friends or sympa- thizers, you are all invited to participate in t | cnjoyment of this senior week's programme. Seniors are thought to appreciate most high- their own festivities, but in this we are greatly handicapped. Tt is not possible for us 1o ignore altogether the fact that this week is | the last of our college life—a life which has | many pleasant. as well as unpleasant, associa- ons connected with it.

The pleasure of the even- ing was marred by the refusal of Man- ager Crarles G. Lathrop to allow the hall to be used for dancing. Lathrop has fur- ther decreed that the senior ball on Mon- day night shall not last after 12 o'clock, given in Encina. The students, partic- ularly the senfors, are very indignant at this action. It has been customary here- tofore for the senior ball to last past the midnight hour. The ball committee will decide either on giving the dance in San i Jose or in beginning it at the absurdly jearly hour of & o'clock. Probably the latter course will be adopted. ADVERTISEMENTS.
