A~ S S LU S ACRAMENTO, Sept. opening day there was a large at- tendance at the California State Fair. There arg-many strangers in the city and -at-the pavilion this ‘evening the attendance was gratify- ing. The pavilion never presented a more attractive appearance, with its great dis- play of products from orchard, vineyard, ‘field and factory. :The exposition build- ing has been decorated artistically. Much interest attaches to the excellent year. W. F. Jackson, superintendent of | the Crocker Art Gallery of this city, is in charge of the exhibit and has succeeded in bringing to the State Fair a rare collec- tion of gems from the brushes of many of California’s most noted artists. The hanging of these beautiful works of art was completed this afternoon. In the great collection presented, besides the works of California’s best-known artists, are the contributions of a number of for- eigners of acknowledgedgenius. ‘William Keith has an Alaskan gcene, a glimpse of the interior of California at a chosen spot and a dainty conception in landscape. These three pieces repre- sent the best effort of the Californian. C. D. Robertson has nine pieces in his collection, the strongest of which is his depiction of the blockade of Mobile Bay L e e Southern trip, shook hands with those about his car. It has been his custom to refrain from handshaking, but when a man in the crowd asked him to shake bands the President said: . ‘““Well, this is a-small crowd, and I will shake your bands,” He told the people he had been over the battlefleld of Chickamauga, and said if a man were half an American he could not help becoming a better citjgen after such a trip. KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 8.—President Roosevelt braved the elements late this afternoon, and in defiance of a hard rain- storm was driven through the streets lined with people to a stand on Nain street, nearly a mile from the depot, where he spoke to 12,000 people, who stood in a drenching rain. i The Presidential party arrived-at 5 o’clock, and ‘'was met by a ldrge recep- tion committee, the Sixth Regiment band #nd a battalion of militia. ~After the President had stated that he could stand the storm to see the people if the people could stand it to see him, carriages were taken, and, preceded by the troops, the procession moved ‘up the main: business street to the speakers’ stand, erected in front of the Women'’s bullding. All along the line of march the President stood with bared head bowing to the cheering throng. Introduced by Congressman Henry R. Gibson -of this district as a man who combined all the sterling traits of char- acter of Andrew Jackson and James Knox Polk, the President thanked the People for coming out in such weather. He said: I want to say how much I appreeiate your having come out to sec me and I take it that your National Guard are not fair weather sol- diers. It has been an inspiration to come through East Tennessee to-day as I have. I am sorry for my sake that the rain should have come at this moment, but you needed it, and I am glad that you have got it.. (Applause.) Yesterday I svent the time going over the great battleficlds of Chickamauga and Chat- tanooga, partly within the boundaries of your own State and partly within the boundary of my mother's State of Georgia. Now I come here along the upper waters of the Tennessee to the seat of the first com- munity settled by the people of our stock on the waters which flow into the Guif of Mex- ico. It was six years before the outbreak of the revolutionary war that the first little set- tlement out of which grew the State of Ten- nessee was founded and it was here in this region that the mounted rifiemen gathered um- der the leadership of Sevier, the shaft in mem- ory of whom you see thire—gathered ‘to go across the mountains and- strike -at King's Mountain the decisive blow which in the end freed the Southern States in the revolutionary war. (Applause.) Right from the beginning the Tennesseeans showed themselves to be typ- ical Americans in the way in which they proved their ability to contend in time of peace. Great has been Tennessee’s share in the lead- ership of the country, alike in war and- peace. Because, my fellow countrymen, while you have been a great agricultural State, while you are now rapidly becoming in this section one of the greatest industrial centers of the entire country, you have acted throughout with credit. While it is great to rroduce works.of man, it is greater to prodice man himself. (Applause.) - It is a great thing to have a factory, a mine, a railroad, but greatest of all is it to have the high ‘citizenship in the community that you have—the men with the power to pro- duce the gentler virtues and, the rougher vir- tues as needs be.

WILKESBARRE, Pa., Sept. 8.—Two Italian striking miners named Frank Portay and Sistino Van Costello, left their homes in Swoyersville, near here, to-day to go to a hunting trip. As they approached the Harry E. colliery they were held up by yokels, who mistook | them for armed non-union men going to | work. Van Costello was shot in the leg and his brains beaten out with stones and clubs. His companion was beaten so badly .that his life is despaired of. The | friends of the Italians threaten to kill the | men who committed the assault on their | countrymen. A crowd of striking miners, mostly for- eigners, remained all night around the | lockup at Edwardsville, where Hiram | Fischer was confined. The prisoner was | held up last night as he was returning from the mine where he is employed as | a coal and fron policeman. He fired into | the crowd and two of the bullets struck | Mrs. John Kasmaugh, who was seated on | a stoop a short distance away. After firing the shots Fischer was set upon by | the mob and beaten so badly that he was | left for dead on the road. Later he was taken to the town lockup.

NEW YORK, Sept. 8—Judge Foster, in the Court of General Sessions to-day, sustained a demurrer interposed to an in- dictment charging Ridge Levein and Lon Stedecker with running a poolroom. Counsel for the accused men, in demur- ring to the indictment, argued that the law prohibiting the making of bets in | a poolroom was unconstitutional, because | it prohibited a man from doing a thing in one place that he was allowed to do in another—that is, that betting on horse races was prohibited in poolrooms, but was allowed on the racetracks. Justice Foster, in upholding the demurrer, say “The questions of law presented by the Gemurrer are so interesting and so im- | pertant that they should be passed upon | by the appellate division for the future guldance of this court.” Debris Barrier Plans Approved.
