July 22.—The investigation | | of marine life of the waters of San Diego | | Bay by Professor Ritter and his assist- | ‘ s of the University of California has 1 resulted in valuable additions to the | | ar knowledge of marine biology of the Pa- cific.

SAN DIEGO, July 22—The Sir Thomas Lipton challenge cup, presented by Sir Thomas to the Corinthian Yacht Club of this'city, as a prize cup, in races on the Pacific Coast, arrived this morning. It is the handsomest cup that has over come to this coast or probably to the United States. It stands thirty-two inches in height, is of solid silver on a hardwood pedestal and the design and workmanship are exquisite, This cup 18 to become the prize in a series of yacht races that will begin in July or August of next year, open to 3)-foot cabin sloops of any Pa- | | eific Coast Yacht Club, e Values in Sonoma Increase. SANTA ROSA, July 22.—The assessed valuation of Sonoma County for the pres- ent season will show an increase of over $1,225,000 over last season. Assessor Frank Dowd and his deputies are just ®omplet- ing the work, having but three road dist- ricts now to compute, and the incredse has already amounted to the above figure, This is a substantial gain, and is highly gratifying to everyone. The greatest gain is in the incorporated cities, of which there are six in Sonoma County. These are Santa Rosa, Petaluma, Healdsburg, Sonoma, Cloverdale and Sebastopol. —_—— Primrose Is Arrested. EL PASO, Tex., July 2—A, D. Prim- rose, representing himself as purchasing agent for Forepaugh's shows, was arrest- ed here this morning for swindling, and is held awaiting advices. Primrose as agent for the circus made bogus contracts for supplies with dealers and secured money under false pretense. He is said to have successfully operated the same scheme in Pacific Coast towns, where he was ex- posed three months ago . Picturesque Structure Is Rapidly Nearing Completion. Special Dispatch to The Call RESNO, July 22.—Rapid frogress is being made here in erecting the new home of the Fresno County Chamber of Commerce weeks more will see the tion that is doing so much to promote the nterests of Fresno County and herald her resources and opportunities abroad comfortably installed in quarters of which it may justly be proud. For many years the chamber has talked of having a building of its own, but it remained for the present executive com- mittee, the most enterprising and ener- getic ever in control of the chamber, to take up the actual work. This committee, consisting of John A. Neu, president; G. M. Boles, vice president; A. Frank Neate, secretary; Leopold Gundelfinger, treas- urer, and F. Wyer, L. R. Payne, Wil- llam Robertson and C. Allison Telfer, was elected last January and has accomplish- ed more in the six months it has been in office than was accomplished for the Chamber of Commerce in all the previous years of its existence. When the committee first went into of- fice the total membership of the cham- ber was less than 3%. A membership campaign was at once instituted, with the result that at present the list numbers more than 700 names. Several big adver- tising schemes were inaugurated, the principal ane and one involving, too, the expenditure of several thousand dollars, being the placing around every carton of raisins shipped from here of a sheet of raisin recipes with a writeup of ¥resno County un the reverse side. Exhibits were established and maintained in the San Francisco ferry building, in Los Angeles, in Chicago, one even as far away as Swe- den, and oge also from which results have already been felt, at the recent national encampment of Modern Woodmen at In- dianapolis. But the most important work undertak- en by the committee was the erection of this new bullding, and the success of its efforts is shown by the handsome struc- ture now being built. The cost of the new building is upward of $10,000, all of which was raised in a week's time by popular subscription among the business men.- The site selected is In the city park, adjoining the Southern Pacific de- pot, where the building will be surround- ed by a splendid lawn and a garden of palms, shade trees, flowers and shrub- bery, an ideal environment for the home of an organization engaged in advertis- ing to the world the glories of the queen county of the San Joaquin Valley. The building faces on H street. It is in the Spanish mission style of architec- ture, which is itself almost Californian, and is of brick cemented with a yellow sandstone effect. The interior space Is devoted principally to the exhibit room, where a fine display of the county's prod- ucts will be made. The exhibit will be arranged on shelves extending from the wall to plllars about ten feet out. Inside the pillars is an oblong space that will be used as an assembly room for the chamber. There are vestibules front and rear, a waiting-room and a private office for the secretary. Situated close to the Southern Pacific depot, the Chamber of Commerce build- ing will, it is believed, be visited by many passing tourists and thus be in itself of material assistance to the:chamber in its work of advertising Fresno. L BAKERSFIELD, July 22 —Mrs_ Henry L. Borgwardt Sr., a ploneer of Kern County, died here this afternoon at the age of 75 yea: She was a native of Germany and came (o Ca ifornia forty years ago. She leaves a husbaj and several children. GED PRISONER OUTWITS POSSE Arizona Farmer Is Cap- tured by Pursuers but Escapes. TUCSON, Ariz., July 22.—A special from Benson says that W. 8. Sessions, a well- to-do farmer and a man of family, 50 years of age, attacked an 8-year-old daughter of a neighbor to-day. Afterward he mounted a horse and rode toward the Mexican line. News soon spread through the valley and a posse of ranchers formed and start- ed in pursuit of Sessions. He was cap- tured fifteen miles from that place and taken back to St. Davids, where he was identified by the child and then locked up in a storeroom until word could be sent to Benson for an officer to take the pris- oner to Tombstone. When the officer arrived the door was unlocked, but the prisoner was not in the room. Investigation showed that he had removed a plank from the floor in a cor- ner of the room, got through the hole and | dug out from beneath the building and escaped. Sheriff Lewis of Cochise County immediately formed a posse and started in pursuit, but as Sessions has six hours’ start of the posse the chances are he has succeeded in crossing the line. —————————— Garden Fete at Mill Valley. SAN RAFAEL,/July 22~The ladies of Mill Vailey have for a number of months had an association for the improvement of the town of Mill Valley from a sani- tary standpoint.

NEW YORK, July 22.—An elephant hunt in Abyssinia on a grand scale is reported to have been planned by several promi- nent brokers in Wall street. One of the leading spirits is personally acquainted with King Menelik, for whom many val- uable presents will be taken along.
