Then came Grand Marshal James M. Hanley, who was mounted on a black charger and decorated with badges, gold lace and a gold scarf. He was accompanied by Harry I Mulcrevy, Ris chief of staff; John F. Twomey, his chief aid, and forty-seven aids, the latter distinguished from the others by blue sashes and white-plumed hats. The martial strains of the First In- fantry band of the National Guard of { California proclaimed the coming of the | second battalion of the First Infantry, | Major Thomas J.

As the column march- ed down the streets hundreds in the crowd on the sidewalks who had follow- | ed that battle-stained flag on the island of Luzon saluted it, and many gave cheers for the California boys. The grand officers of the order were in line, but not in a body, for each, present and past, marched at the head of the | parlor in which he holds membership. Past Grand Presidents Decker and Grady and Grand Secretary Lunstedt marched at the head of California Parlor, with Grand Outside Sentinel Emmett J.

The Rabacca River is a | stream of fire a quarter of a mile wide. The river bed is continuously throwing up columns and dense clouds of steam, mud and pebbles. The lava has spread farther southward and is changing con- | siderably the appearance of the district | from what it was prior to September 3. | Probably this is caused Dy the ejecta | that flowed down the slopes, filling the | sea_about the coast. |~ The port officer of Chateau Belaire, who | saw tgc Soufriere from the sea yester- day, made the following report: ““fhe mountain is considerably lower than before September 3 and the appear- | ance of the summit has changed A large Proportion has evidently been blown off | and the hill has a much more jagged ap- | pearance.

Twin Peaks Parlor, the baby parlor of the order, which was instituted less than a month ago, turned out about ninety strong in dark clothes, wearing white baby caps and carrying nursing bottles. The parlor also had in line a beautiful silk banner bearing its name and date of institution. As not a few of the members weigh not less than 200 peunds, they were a healthy-looking lot of infants.

Hundreds have found it much more prof- itable to raise sugar beets than wheat and are turning the increased acreage from wheat raising to beet culture with large profits in sight. Especially have these conditions prevailed near La Grande, in Umatilla County, Oregon, and Waverly, in Spokane County, Washing- ton. Superintendent Atterilv of the La Grande Beet Sugar Factory in his report shows that in one year the number of contracting growers has increased from fifty-eight to 125. The average acreage of each farmer is twenty-three, with an average income per acre for this season's crop estimated at $38 50. The success of the sugar beet industry in these counties has been watched with interest, and next season it is expected the acreage will be greatly increased.

Fifteen | hundred arrived to-day as the advance | guards of the host of Native Sons who will be guests of the local parlor during the festivities. The visitors are all de- | lighted with the preparations made for their entertainment and comfort. The local committeemen were busy through- out the day perfecting plans for the re- ception of the thousands who arrived by | special trains from San Francisco to- | night. The business men of the city com- | pleted the decoration of their places and Santa Rosa put the final touches upon | its festival garb. | Many members of Fremont Parlor of ! Native Daughters are here. This parlor | is occupying the armory of Company E, | one of the best locations in Santa Rosa, | and it will entertain to-morrow even- | ing in lavish fashion.

RIVERSIDE, Sept. 8—Mrs. Mary Mc- Canna of Piru caused a furor in the Holyrood Hotel early to-day. She was awaiting examination for insanity and was in charge of Mrs. Horace Lathrop | and her daughter, May Lathrop. Her in- sanity was supposed to be of a mild form. Shortly after midnight she feigned sleep, and her watchers took a nap. They awoke to find the frenzied woman bending | over them. She threw a lighted lamp at May Lathrop, striking her on the fore- head. Fortunately it was extinguished. The two women grappled with Mrs. Me- Canna, who bit off Mrs. Lathrop’s little | finger and mangled the daughter’s arm with her teeth during the struggle. Four men had great difficulty in getting the lunatic under control. The victims fear blood poisoning or hydrophobia. H The insane woman is 44 years old and | weighs less than 100 pounds. She was committed to Highland by Judge Noyes to-day. Shot by Son-in-Law. BOSTON, Sept. S—John Lehnemann was shot in the abdomen last night by his son-in-law, James C.

El Diablo Easily Wins the 2:13 Class - Pace at State Fair. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Sept. 3.—The State Fair race meeting was ushered in under very favorable auspices. The weather was of the melting sort, the attendance good and the track fast. /Nothing bordering on the sensational occurred in any one of the six events decided, but the sport served to whet the appetites of the crowd for better things to come In the judges’ stand General A. W. Bar- rett acted as presiding and starting judge of the harness events, with A. B. Spreck- els and B. F. Rush as associates. J. W. Wilson presided over the running events. William Fieldwick dispatched the run- ners. Four books laid prices on the running events and failed to put away any money. Al Leach dispensed cardboards from the auction box on the harness af- iairs and a pari mutuel box accommo- dated small bettors. A combination book also _caught quite a play. Sometlung of a surprise developed over the result of the Occident trotting stake, ior three-year-olds, with a gross value cf $3265, of which amount the first horse took $2137. Cuate, driven by the elder Dur- fee, ruled favorite in the pools sold, bring- ng 15, Zombowyette 10 and the deld 10. TEe fielders were soon rolling on velvet, for Aristo, a strapping son of Nushajak, a son of Sable Wiixes, driven by Spencer, Went out and won in straight heats. The winner is reported to have worked a mile in 2:12% about four wecks ago, since which time he suffered an attack of dis- temper and was not really fit in to-day's contest. By twice finishing second, Cuate took second money, and Walter behiné. Zombowyette, hiked away with third money. The winner is owned by Alexander Brown, being a product of the Walnut Grove Farm. ‘With seconds in reserve El Diablo an- nexed the 2:13 class place without effort. As usual, he had all kinds of trouble with his hobbles, pedigree and boots in the first heat, which went to Alone in the ri- diculously slow time of 2:17%. Then El Diablo and Driver Farrar looped the loop in three straight heats. In capturing the discarded heat, Alone, looking weary from her hard seven-heat battle at Wood- land, earned second money. The running events, while lacking class, were well contested. In the first, 2 six-furlong number, ‘Loyal S, ridden by Bozeman and 8 to 1 in the ring, beat Se- nora Caesar a half length, after the lat- ter had made all the running. Canderos, fresh from his Montana campaign, ran ihird. King Dellis, the favorite, was prominent to the strentch and then died | away. Garrigan, the Haggin rider, had his sec- ond mount on Prestano, backed from 8 to 5.to 9 to 10, to take the second six-furlong dash. By clever handling Garrigan grad- ually overhauled Malaspina, winning by a long neck, and the horse's victory put 2 well-developed crimp in the books. Ike Tullett landed Tompion in the show. The Major, a likely looking colt by Mid- lothian, trained by “Daggie” Smith, was rext made the medium of a plunge to take the maiden two-year-old scramble at five furlongs, his odds dropping to 3 to 2.

Many New Companies Or- ganize to Send Outfits Northward. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Sept. 8.—Dredges working on the gold-impregnated bottoms of Snake River and its tributaries during the sum- mer have been proving bonanzas for their owners. The results have been so success- ful that many new companies have been formed to build more dredges, and many will be built by individual persons. A monster dredge similar to that now in operation on John Day River is to be built and operated by Portland capital- ists, composing the Empire Dredging Company. The cost of this dredge will | approximate $250,000. The Pomeroy dredge, which _has been in operation during the past thirty days, is handling 1500 cubic yards of gravel daily at splendid profit, and the capacity of the dredge is not be- | ing worked to half its limit. The profits | of smaller dredges on the tributaries of Snake River average $300 to $600 a day. It is estimated that if the Pomeroy dredge worked steadily at full capacity for fifty years it could not exhaust the ;:-n-‘mile concession acquired along North crk.
