WELCOMES GUESTS ON BEHALF OF THE FAIR GARLDEN CITY the protec- grandson of California’s first Governor, delivered the address of welcome on bebalf of the local parlors and city. In part he spoke as follows: Ladies and Gentlem sense of the honor and name of the Native Sons of the Golden West I bid you welcome at the celebration of the fitty-third anniversary of the admission cf It {s with a deep stinction that in_the | California into the Union, The occasion, the place, the surroundings, 80 fresh and sweet with the historic memories of the State, inspire her sons and daughters with a love and enthuslasm that raise their | pride of State and love of country to a iofty position. These very trees, whose luxuriant follage to- day shelters us from the heat of the sun, cast their shade over the deliberations and acts of ocur first State Government. Hardly beyond the reach of the voice from this spot was con- vened and organized the first State Legisla- ture, and there the entire machinery of tha State Government was put in active motion. Before Congress had granted our prayer for Statehood, before the executive of the nation had penned his name to his approval of the bill making California a State, the ploneers, our fathers and predecessors. had in this city firmly established a complete State organiza- tion In this city of San Jose, more than fifty years ago, without the walt of Territorial no. vitiate, the people of California, represented by men from all climes and countries, of all classes and of all shades of religions and po- litical thought, initiated and put into active life the State Government we have to-day and which will endure as a mark of the abil- ity and hardy honesty of its originators so long as republican form of government has a place in the hearts of men. Can any praise of yours or mine be adequate or necessary to honor the California ploneer men and women? Can we 2dd_one cubit to the shaft by all that we can #ay?

R. McNO- G BLE was the orator of the day. He was received with cheers and delivered an eloquent address. He spoke as follows: Mr. President, Pioneers, Native Daughters, Native Sons, Ladies and Gentleme: ‘What a fitting tribute, after fifty-three years, we, native sons and native daughters, children and | grandchildren of the ploneers, have cume back | to San the first capital of the State of California, we and a few of those old ploneers, to commemorate the birthday of ocur beloved State, What the pioneers began so auspiciously fifty-three years ago to-day, ms their natural heirs we native sons are proud to carry on but the natural impulse of our heart ed by our patriotism and loyalty called us together in the hospitable city of San Jose. The thousands gathered here to- day are but the living evidences of the patriot- ism and loyalty of the citizens of our entire State, . The Native Sons of the Golden West are | not alone organized to preserve the fame of California and glorify the deeds of her found- ers, but to carry on with unceasing zeal the grand work of bullding up our greal State, fostering and developing Its wondrous re- sources and educating its sons and daughters, The order of the Native Sons of the Golden West is not a selfish organization; it is found- ed upon the broad and undying principles of friendship, loyaity and charity. . It was organized for the mutual benefit, ‘mental improvement and social intercourse of its members; to perpetuate in the minds of all native Californfans the memories of one of the most wonderful epochs in the world's history—'‘the days of '49"—to unite them in one harmonious body throughout the State by the ties of a friendship mutually beneficial to all and unalloyed by the bitterness of re- liglous or political differences, the discussion of which is most stringently forbidden in its meetings; to elevate and cultivate the mental faculties; to rejoice with one another in_pros. perity, and to extend the “good Sumaritas hand in adversity. The members must bear a good reputation for sobriety and i{ndustry: they must follow some respectable calling’ by which to make a llving, and, as a vital principle of the as- sociation, it encourages temperance among its members and recommends total zpstinence from all intoxicating drinks. Coupled with us in our deily work—cheerful in their labors, brilliant in their public ex- pressions. loyal in their devotion to our State and its interests, the Native Daughters of the Golden West—our mothers, our wives, our sis. ters, our daughters and our sweethearts are doing noble work for our State and our na- fon. In caring for the sick, in nurturin phans, in burying the dead, in rmm‘n;'-'&é’r'; interest that makes for the betterment of mankind and the improvement of internal con- diticns in California, the Native Daughters of the Golden West are impressing their magnifi- cent womanhood upon the entire State. Every citizen of California owes an everlast- ing obligation to those hardy sons of every soll who left their homes and faced the dan- gers of an unknown land to lay. the founda- tion stones of this great commonwealth; those Argonauts— “Who_crossed the plains, as of old the Pjl- grims crossed the sea, _the East, the To make the West, as they As the descendants of those hardy Pioneers, homestead of the free." | health and plenty SAN FRRNCISCAN |BAD SPECULATION DIES A UIGIDE Registers in New York Hotel as James E. Sharp. —_— Takes Every Possible Pre- caution to Conoeal His Identity. —_— Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Sept 9.—“Failing health— sulcide—Nemo,”’ scribbled on a plece of paper, a glass that had contained car- bolic acid and a new, fully loaded revol- ver were found in the room of a man who committed sulcide to-day in the Broadway Central Hotel. The man had registered @s “James E. Sharp, San Francisco.” It is believed he had intended to shoot him- self, but decided on polson as an easier means of death. He had taken every possible precaution to prevent his iden- tity becoming known. The police of the Mercer-street station obtalned a San Francisco directory and found therein the name, “J. Everett Sharp, clerk of Jus- tices' Court, No. 1728 Golden Gate ave- Little could be learned of the man at the hotel, where he registered last Mon- day and was assigned to a room on the seventh floor. He made no friends, so far as was ‘known, and told no one his business. He seemed to have plenty of money and to be here on & pleasure trip. The man’s last message was written on & leaf of a pamphlet advertising’a patent ice cream freezer. The words looked as it they had been penned after drinking the fatal draught. Sharp had cut his name from the band inside his derby hat and from the well- worn wallet which was found in his pocket, containing $200 in $20 bills. His traveling bag contained personal effects of good material. His clothing was of the best and of fashionable cut. He was of | good appearance, about 20 years old and weighed 180 pounds. A torn envelope was found which, when pleced together, seemed to be addressed to either C. E. or E. E. Chapin, 336 Cen- tral avenue, San Francisco. ‘When a mald tried to enter his room she found the door locked, and called the head porter, James Guthrie, who forced an entrance. The body was removed to the Mercer street police statlon and the Coroner is making an investigation. No trace of the identity of James E. Sharp could be found in this city last night. His name does not appear in the directory. J. Everett Sharp, who it was thought by the New York police might be the suicide, is alive and well in this city. There ie no ‘“No. 336" on Central avenue, and no one by the name of Chapin was known to residents on that avenue. @ il el FOR 3IR THOMAS Is Owner of Shamrocks Caught “Short” in Lard. Compelled to Buy Heavily on a Steadily Rising Market. Special Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—Sir Thomas Lipton, who runs a packing house at the stock | yards in addition to his tea business In | London, to provide funds for the operation | of the Shamrock?, has, according to stories told in the provision trade, been | caught short in lard and ribs. His house has been a buyer in the markets for near- ly & week, and the price has been on rise, The power of the Armour and Swift in- terest has been felt for several days. They control the stock of lard and meats as it | 1s necessary for their enormous trade. | Short sellers, who have been pounding | the price down for months, have reached ! thelir limit. For nearly a week, the price has been moving upward, and to-day there | was an advance of nearly $1 a barrel in | pork, 25 to 35 cents in lard, and 25 to 35| cents in short ribs. Lard has advanced | nearly 38 a tierce since the low point in | July and is now selling about $9 per 100 pounds. One-third of the lnrq stock ot’ tHe country is held by the Swift's here. | Lipton bought more than 1,000,000 pounds | of ribs and about its equivalent in lard | to-day and was one of the factors in mak- | ing the advance. ———————— i MORMON MAKES BITTER ! ATTACK UPON PRESIDENT —_ { Judge King Speaks of Mr. Roose- | velt as a “Grand-Stand ' Player.” CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—Former Congress man Willlam H. King, son-in-law of | Apostle Francls Lyman, heir apparent | to the Mormon throne, made a savage at-.| tack on President Roosevelt at a meeting held to-day. Judge King, in an impassioned speech, alluded to President Roosevelt as a tand player” and a ‘‘colossal He sald that while Mr. Roose- velt professed to oppose the trusts, he was doing all he could to promote an asset currency scheme for the benefit of |' the banks.

He made a prophecy in which ht said | Cleveland and Bryan would be found to- | gether after the next national conven- tion in stern opposition to Republican | policies. | — the destiny of our beloved State rests upon our shoulders, The orders of the Native Sons of the Golden West and the Native Daughters of the Golden West stand as monuments to the memory of those stout-hearted Pioneer mothers and (ath- ers who made it pessible to have the great California of to-day? they are not organized for & day, but for all time. There Is one feature that distinguishes the organization of the Native Sons of the Golden West from all other fraternal organizations, and that feature is loyaity to the State of Call- fornia. It is one of the fundamental principles of_our organization. We love these great United States and our officers of government; we love and admire a citizen of our Government from whatever part of our pos California before our nation. s place her, with all our love and devotion to her, side by side with every other State or Terri- tory of our great Federal bond and we love to feel and know that she Is a etrong and grow- ing link in the great sisterhood of States. Within the confines of our State nature, with a generous impulse, has strewn the fruits and flowers, the mineral and climatic wealth of a thousand _climes. Progress and prosperity, ave been written on every page of her history: vet it remained for the strident volce of Dewey's guns at Manila to fully demonstrate to the world California’s patriotism, _California’s ability, California’s marhood, California’s greatn: are situated geographically in the greatest nation known to ancient or mod- ern history; a nation that commands the re- spect and admiration of the entire world. Within_the borders of our State every citi- zen stands on an equal footing: great as.has been her progress, greater still are her oppor- tunities, There is no boy or girl, however humble his birth, who, if he try, may not rise to be mighty among us and famed In this nation of the free. Such demonstrations as this, into which we all enter so happily to-day, are but the school houses of liberty erected in loving devotion to our patriotic republican form of government. The epirit that supported the tired and weary argonaut as he trudged across the great plains a half century and more gone by; the spirit that raised the hear flag at old Sonoma; the epirit that brought California into_the Union without the process of Territorial child- hood; the spirit that framed the first constitu- tion of our State; the spirit that hanged Casey and Corey to the improvised scaffold, the spirit that lald the foundation of this great common- wealth, is instilled In the sons and daughters of the ploneers. Our foremost object in life is and of right_should be, to foster and.revere that spirit. How well we are performing that sacred trust fs known to every household in our State. While we still have hovering about us the spirit and Inspiration of the golden days of early Callfornia, we associate that spirit at the commencement of twentieth cen- tury with the great and powerful genfus of our present prosperity and the greater possibilities of the future. Bright as are the pages of our fifty-three years' history; heroic as have been the deeds of her bullders; wonderful as has been her progress, it takes no seer or prophet to tell us of her brillfant future. With her golden treas- ure, her millions of fertile acres, her harbors, the wonder of the world; her thousand miles of coast line fondly clasped by the peaceful queen of oceans, the matural roadway of the mother country to our possessions in the Orlent—all these opportunities in the hands of her citizens of energy and ability, who can resist the hope that ere many decades California shall be the empire State of this great nation? “‘California, the idol of our hearts! her valleys shall thrive the poppy, her snow- capped Sierras stand as sentinels to guard her eastern portals, while her myriad golden streams shall feed the peaceful old ocean at her feet, may her sons be ever loyal to her call; may their hearts ever beat with love and kind- ness for her upright citizens; may the God of all nations watch over and guide her desti- nies for ail time to come! The band concert followed and was en- joyed by the large audience. LOCAL POLITICS CROP UP IN SAN JOSE COMMITTEE to-day’'s celebration. While UT one little incident aside from the usual Admission day festivi- ties occurred in connection with That was a dash of local politics that had been hatched up | for the celebration, but the arrival of Grand President McNoble soon straight- ened it out. Because Mayor Worswick and his administration were not favored by the leading lights in the Native Sons’ organization the committee in charge de- cided to snub the city’s executive. of Police Carroll was also on the list to be turned down and no invitation was extended to him to furnish an escort for the parade. By some mistake Carroll was invited by some of the members and then the committee decided to ask that only Native Sons on the force be fur- nished for an escort. When the squad with Chief Carroll lined up to-day in the lead of the proces- sion there were all nationalities in line. Chief | Grand President McNoble when he heard that the Mayor had not been in-| vited to participate in the parade sent | for the committee and declared he would | not stand for any such slight to the head | of the city. McNoble said he would not parade himself unless Mayor Worswick | was invited. The grand president then | invited Mayor Worswick and the Mayor | of San Jose rode in the carriage with | Grand' Presldent McNoble, President of the Day Byington and Mayor Schmitz. Members of the visiting parlors says that the matter may find its way into the next session of the Grand Parlor. The | same kind of a slight was given the Chief | of Police and the Mayor by the Labor day committee.

During the excavations the valley of the Sarno, near San Mar- zano, some most intere antiquitiess have come to light. These had been cov- ered up by a volcano deposit about six feet thick, which points to an eruption of Vesuvius which must have taken place in the seventh century before Christ.
