Structures for the first citrus fair ever planned to represent the entire array 'of | counties north of Tehachapi began to rise {in the nave of the ferry building in this | city yesterday. Shasta, Sacramento, Tu- |lare and Butte County booths are the | bresent care of carpenters, who are rush- | |ing work as fast as possible. Altogether i | sixtéen counties have engaged space to | | show their products, citrus and otherwise. The exhibition will open next Monday |and will last two weeks. Altogether, according to the latest ad- | vices, it wili be showy and instructive. | By reason of the early ripening of the {citrus fruits of Northern California it is | possible to open the cxhibition in Thanks- | gtving week, and it will be known as the | I'hanksgiving fair. The counties that will surely be represented on the opening day | are Tulare,. Kern, Fresno, San Joaquin, Sacramento, Placer, Butte, Shasta, Te- hama, Glenn, Colusa, Mendocino and Yuba. The Asti Colony wifi have an .ex- hibit of Sonoma County citrus products, but the county does not show as a whole. Electricians have been busy for some days preparing to illuminate the ferrry building. The lighting is supplied free of cost by the Independent Electric Light and Power Cumpany. In the nave the ef- fect will be made more brilliant than ustal by making the side lights white, while leaving the arches in colored light. The dome will flash out nightly to give notice of the fair, and a flaming sign will be over the front of the ferry building to tell that the fair is there. Admittance will be free. In addition to the county exhibits there will be included | displays of wine and some other collec- tions of products. The California State Floral Society is ready to proceed with the floral decoration of the booths, and ail will be treated alike in this regard. A band will supply some of the music. { 1 | @ il oo ferfefesioerfenfe he.

At that moment car No. 1201, south-bound, came along at a good rate of speed. The girl had clear: ed the track and the little fellow was in the middle as the car bore down upon Iim.

RED BLUFF, Nov. 20.—James aley, a farmer who had lived with his \family for ten years on Reeds Creek, four miles west of town, showed signs of violent in- sanity Wednesday evening. He became deranged immediately after ge death of Lena K. Nangle, Democratic nominee for School Superintendent. He was much in- terested in her contest and had a great desire to see her elected. Yesterday evening Healey ordered his wife into a buggy and drove his family before him to Red Bluff, where he an- nouncéd a desire to baptize them in the Sacramento River. After arriving in town he became vio- lent- and beat his daughter on the head with a cross. He was placed under ar- rest by Sheriff Bogard, who, assisted by Policeman Slater and Constable McGov- ern, had a hard time to get him to the County Jail, where he was placed in the insane ward and strapped to a bed.

Vigorous Steps Taken for Appropriation to Be Made. A determined effort will be made by members of a number of local public spir- ited organizations to get a bill through Congress at the coming session for an appropriation to purchase the Calaveras Big Trees and have the tract containing these wonders of nature turned into a national park. The preparatory step in this matter was taken yesterday at a-meeting called by the members of the California Club at the apartments of Mrs. A. D. Sharon in the Palace Hotel. At this meeting it was decided that no time should be lost, and it was decided to invite a number of local organizations to appoint from their muster rolls a dele- gate each, to form a central committee | to see that no stone shall be left unturned in endeavoring to get the appropriation | through. The big grove of sequoias is on what is known as the Sperry tract and comprises 2300 acres of land. Should Con- gress pass the bill, that calls for an ap-| propriation of $200,000, Robert B. White- side, the present owner of the property, would be tehdered the money, and should he refuse to accept such a sum condem- nation proceedings would at once be in- stituted. 3 At the meeting yesterday those present were Mrs. Lovell White and Mrs. Sharon of the California Club; Lewis M. Bying- ton, Henry Lunstedt and Dr. Washington Dodge, representing the Native Sons; Professor. Dudley of Stanford Universit; for the Sierra Club and Clarence Worces- ter for. the State Boad of Trade.

MOKEY A 6000 WITNES: She Is Called to Stand and Questioned by the Court. Most of Day Taken Up by Reading of Long Depositions R Almost all of the time devoted vester- | day by Judge Coffey to the hearing of the petition of Harry N. Mandeville of Bos- ton to have his mother-in-law, Mrs. Gage H. Moxey, declared incompetent, was | taken up by the reading of rather dry | depositions, but toward the close of the afternoon session Attorney Hoefler, rep- the petitioners, called Mrs. Moxey to the witness stand and she man- aged to enliven interest in the day's pro- ceedings. - The elderly wife of the youthful in- structor of physical culture sat beside her athletic spouse all day long and when | the reading of the depositions, most of | which were made by people living in Bgs- | ton, dragged, the spectators in the court- | room spent their time with their eyes | riveted upon the couple whose names | have suddenly become linked with every- | thing that pertains to love, money and | ouse Want To Get An & Airship. ‘Whenever Attorney Rix of counsel for | petitioners would read anything in the | depositions that savored of a smack at Mrs. -Moxey's questioned intelligence, | Moxey would throw his eves upon his wife | with an expression that seemed to say, | “Rubbish,” and whenever Rix read any- | thing from his voluminous record calcu- | lated to fmpugn the motives of Moxey in | annexing himself to the rich widow and her fortune, she looked aghast, as if such a thing were entirely out of the ques- tion. GLANSY’S GOOD MEMORY. Frank J. Glansy, clerk in the office of the Register of Deeds at Suffolk, Mass., made a deposition in which he told of the | filing of the deeds to Mrs. Moxey's valu- able property at 124 and 126 Sumner street, Boston. The deposition set forth that a man representing himself to be a Mr. Young filed the deed. The petitioners claim that the Mr. Young in question was none other than Hoover, the physical cul- ture" instructor, whose name is brought | out in every important step in the case. He was in Boston at the time and had several talks with Mrs. Moxey’s relatives. | Glansy testified that the deed was filed | on July 22 and that he looked up ti#e title for the man who filed the instrument. In the deposition, which was taken in the East, Glansy was asked why he remem- bers so much about the transaction. “Well,” he answered, “when he first ap-| plied for information about the property | he had me look up the title. If I remem- ber rightly it went back to Mrs. Gage Phillips. When he filed the deed the next day he state@ that he wanted to get it back that day, as he wanted to catch a train fgr New York. “I told him,” the deposition ran, “that he would have to wait until the next day for the deed. This seemed to worry him | very much and as he was going out he | chucked me half a dollar and told me to | get -some cigars for myself. When he | came back the next day he gave me $2 50. That is why I remember so much about it.”” “Do you remember him on account of the two and a half?” was asked. “Yes,” was Glansy's reply. “I'm not likely to forget in a hurry a man who gives me two and a half.” ‘When Rix read this answer the courl- room rippled with laughter and the bailift had to rap for order. Several other afii- davits, including one made by Mrs. Mandeville, in which she said that it was her belief that her mother was crazy and irresponsible, were read, and then Mrs. Moxey was called {o the stand. “Did you ever see these deeds before?” asked, Attorney Hoefler when Mrs. Moxey had comfortably ensconsed herself in the witness chair. “Yes; they are the two deeds I made | for the property in Mendocino County,” replied Mrs. Moxey, without hesitation. ‘““Where were they made?” “One 1 made here in the office of D. M. Delmas, and the other I made in Ukiah.” COFFEY TAKES A HAND. The attorney attempted to get Mrs. Mokey mixed up as to which deed was made here and which was made in Ukiah. Attorney Stephen Costello, attorney for the Moxeys, came to her rescue with an objection, but before he could stop her Mys. Moxey had already specified the place where she made each document. They were then offered in evidence. Judge Coffey then took Mrs. Moxey in tow. The Judge wanted to ask a few questions himself, simply for the purpose of testing her memory. “I don’t mean to offend you, madam,” said Judge Coffey, “but I desire to test your memory. You know that enters into this case as much as any other phase of it. “It has been sworn here in one of these depositions made by the elevator boy in your Boston building that you are color blind. Can you describe these colors in this document?"” Mrs. Moxey took the deed and success- fully mastered the test. There were four colors in the deed, including the seal and the notary’s certificate. Mrs. Moxey was @qual to the test and:Judge Coffey took another tack. made her write several samples of her pignature and asked nu- merous other questions, which she an- swered in a rational style, much to the sotisfaction of Moxey, who seemed picased that his aged wife was doing so well on the witness stand. When she was allowed to go Moxey stood up and arranged her chair so she could sit down without inconvenience. Attorney Rix announced that all of the | petitioners’ testimony save that of one witness was in, and they would be ready to rest their case after they examined this particular witness. The matter went over until 11 o’clock Monday morning. Gavin and Kirk Case Closing.
