ADVERTISEMENTS. A A B THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY MARCH 10, 1904. CORS) ETS ) YOUR ROUTE. F you came West over a northern route, you should return via a soythern route. In like manner, if you made the trip to Cali- fornia over a southern route, the thing to do is to go East over a northern route. By doing this you will see just twice as much as if you used the same line in both directions. Look into this matter of return routes and you will find that the Rock Island System forms a part of the best northern as well as the best southern trans-continental line. Northern Route is by way of Ogden, Salt Lake City, Colorado Springs and Denver. Southern Route is via El Paso. Through car service both ways. Particulars are given in our folders, at all Southern Pacific ticket offices. C. A. RUTHERFORD, District Passenger Agent, Market St., San Francisco, Cal.

The sports will start promptly at 1 o'clock at the Presidio athletic grounds, Baker and Francisco streets. They will consist of a hurling match between the Emerald and Independ- ent teams, 100.yard dash, 440-yard run, mile run, twelve-pound weight throw, forty-two-pound weight throw from shoulder, fifty-six-pound weight throw between legs, running broad jump; hop, skip and leap and Gaelic dancing. The Emerald and Independent hur- ling teams are admittedly the best two in the United States. They never have met before and the game will probably be the most exciting hurling match ever seen on the Pacific Coast. attracting a deal of interest among admirers of the sport all over the State. The other athletic events are im- portant ones and are open to all ama- teurs who wish to compete. The fleld ay should prove to be one of the best ever held in this city, as the leading athletes from the University of Call- fornia, Stanford University, Lowell, Lick and Pelytechnic high schools, St. Ignatius Gymnasium, Occidental Club and Ariel Rowing Club have all entered in the various events and it is expected Mary’s and Santa Clara colleges will also be represented. Among the likely men who will compete for the gold and silver medals offered are Bell and Dole of Stanford, Victor Ligda of the University of Cali- fornia, Robert Cochrane of St. Ignatius gymnasium, De Manlel and Mandrell of Lowell High School, Nicholas Bar- ron, a well-known Irish athlete, and William Mihehan of the Olympic Club. The committee has decided not to have an oration at the evening exer- cises to be held at Mechanies' Pavilion. Michael Casey, chairman, will make a few remarks and aside from his short speech there will be no address. Neither will there be any religious ceremonies attached to the celebra- tion. A splendid programme has been ar- ranged for the evening. It will con- sist of an overture of national airs by Allen’s Band; songs by Bert Murphy, David Manlloyd and Eugene E. O‘Sullivan; sleighbell solo by Miss Nellie Waters; remarks by Chairman Michael Casey, a drill by Company D, League of the Cross Cadets and a grand ball. B — Rayhill Is Given Verdict. !

The plans for such an or- ganization, in case it becomes neces- sary to institute it, have already been | iures, and puts a stop to | worked out and are ready to be adopt- ed at a moment’s notice. The Order of the Native Daughters of the Golden West for many years kept on growing in members and in- when one of the two factions that have | long been striving for supremacy un- dertook to rule with a high hand, and in the accomplishment of its ends trampled upon the constitution of the order and assumed that force of power was superior to that of justice. © One of the presidents committed acts that ' | met with violent opposition, from individual members, but parlors as a whole. There were other parlors and individuals, however, that sustained these acts under the old idea not only that the president of the Native Daughters, like a monarch, can do no | wrong. STARTING OF TROUBLE. Following this came another presi- | dent, who did many things that her predecessor did, being moved to do so | by precedent. But her actions, in the opinion of -those that supported her predecessor, were all wrong, and when told that the one president had not acted differently than the other the re- ply was, “The other was our friend, but this one ‘s not."” This was the starting of trouble that | threatens to disrupt the order. The particular late arrayed members and parlors against one another is now located in Alta and Buena Vista parlors. The matter, under the law of the order, should be kept within the knowledge of the parlor in which it exists, but it has been “the talk of the town"” for weeks, not only the organization, but among people | that are in no way affillated with the order either by ties of kinship to the members or of friendship for such. | 1In the first named parlor there was presented a certain ‘“official report,” to which exception was taken by Past | Grand President Keith, who asked that it be stricken from the records. This request was denled. In the mean- time a member of Buena Vista Parlor s stricken from the rolls, as she claims, through prejudice, and in her endeavor to have herself reinstated had Past Grand President Keith ap- pear as her attorney. | CHARGES ARE PRESENTED. 4 | Parlor that was held | were issued an | have the report presented to Alta Par- {lor compared with the official docu- ment and allow an arbitration com- | { mittee of disinterested members to | | pass upon it, but this failed. A result in Red Bluff Heurbach and others, who were deje- | gates to the Grand Parlor. The law of the order provides that when charges | are preferred the same shall be re- ferred to a trial committee of five un- prejudiced and unbiased members of the parlor for trial and determination. | There is another law that is in the form of a decision by a grand presi- dent, and which stands as law until |a member under charges is deprived | of all rights until the matter has been | heard and determined. @ The appointment of the committee in Alta Parlor led to a protest on the | ground that the committee was not | selected according to the provisions of |the Jaw, but was composed of mem- | bers that are avowedly opposed to the | past president, and this was fol- lowed by a refusal to entertain the protest. Then came charges against the president of the parlor, the dele- gates to the Grand Parlor for failure to present their report within the statutory time and against the record- ing secretary, and then counter {charges were filed against the com- | plainant. This was followed by de- murrers, objections, appeals and pro- tests. COURTS MAY INTERVENE. In addition to the charge brought against Past Grand President Keith, which is to the effect that she is guilty of conduct unbecomjng ‘a Native Daughter by bringing frivolous charges to harass members, Buena Vista Parlor has preferred charges against her in Alta Parlor to the effect that she made use of language in her argument that was calculated to reflect upon certain members of Buena Vista Parlor. The officers of Alta Parlor threw out all charges preferred by the past grand president and continued the commit- tee that was originally appointed to try her. There is talk that Past Grand Presi- dent Keith believes that she has not been accorded justice in her parlor, and that she may take steps to carry the matter to the civil courts to re- strain the subordinate parlor from pro- ceeding with the trial until certain ap- - The war in the Orient goes merrily on, and repopts of all kinds are being daily cabled only to be contradicted by the | next report.

LOUIS| Craw Puts Up Most Unique of All State Exhibits. Headquarters of Commission Are About to Close. San Francisco Fund Alexander Craw put the finishing tcuches yesterday on what is pro- ncunced by Commissioner J. A. Filcher to be the most unique of all the exhibits that California will send to St. Lous. It is a case, shiny of exterior, furnished with ghelves: books with showy bind- ings, the pages of which are ostenta- ticusly thrown open to show illustra- tions of California fruits in colors; and last and most important, members of every family of beneficial insects that its cottony cushion scales, its black scales, the San Jose scale and all the other noxious organisms that have, at ! different times, menaced horticulture | generally and in particular the proper growth in this State of oranges. When limbs and twigs, leaves and fruit have been covered with one dis- | figurement or another the State of Cali- fornia has, through the agency of its horticultural officers, sought, and hav- | ing secured, has propagated vast num- | bers of insect killers of insects. Some have been introduced from Australia and some from Europe. They are, one and all, epicures of the firat water. | Each beneficial sort of insect will cat | only one sort of scale. Hence continual research and minute observation have beeh necessary to secure for the several varieties of scales that have been brought to California the proper scale enemies. Most of the beneficial insects are ex- tremely minute. Some of them, in fact, are hardly disdernible, except under a microscopic lens. Notwitnstanding this every beneficial insect has been en dowed with a name a foot long and has had an appetite for scales that has proved that it could be relied upon to | pay strict attention to business. SEEN THROUGH LENSES. The exhibition case to go to St. Louis, illustrative of the successful efforts of California to fight scales and other in- sect troubles, is fitted up with micro- scope lenses, one lens for each cluster of beneficial insects. One may look through the lens and rightly distinguish the minute lnsects to which a great | State has, and not vainly, pinned its faith. In the exhibition case are also thin cylinders of glass, the tubes in whkich colonies of beneficial insects are transported from the headquarters of the Horticultural Commissioner at the foot of Market street to infested orch- ards. From all parts of the world scientists, and especially horticulturists, will gaze with fascination on this small collec- tion of beneficial insects. From a small number their associates in the scale- destroying business have increased to countless millions. The money thag {they have directly saved in rescuing | orchards and the greater service they have performed in insuring the con- tinuance of fruit industries that mus( have totally ‘failed without their hard | work can be represented only in mil- | lions of dollars. The insect case was ready to start overland last night. By the end of another week prob- ably all the California exhibits, with the exception of the green fruits to bq | sent next summer, will be on the way ‘to St. Louis. Altogether, so says Sec- retary Willls of the California St. Louis Commission, the California exhibit will | amount to about forty full carloads. Something like half a score of cars have already been dispatched from California points. The exhibits have been assembled at San Francisco, Los Angeles, Stockton, Sacramento and San | Jose as central shipping points. { While there are some tardy parties | who are still holding back under one | pretext or another, practically all the | exhibits are at hand. So near are.the Commissioners to the end of their work | at this end of the line that the head- rqunrters of the commission in the Russ | House will be closed next Sunday. Sec- retary Willis will start for St. Louls | on Sunday. Commissioner Filcher will be detained a few days, possibly to | get the later arriving exhibits under way and to see that all the business of | the commission in this State is closed up as far as possible. The California State building at St. Louls is ready to receive some of its | intended contents. The great buildings | of the exposition in which the Cali- ‘fornh exhibits are to be placed are | completed and ready for the installa- tion of what is to be put on view for the admiration of spectators. & FUND IS STILL SHORT. Secretary L. M. King of the San Francisco committee to prepare the fine show that San Francisco will make on its own account at St. Louis says that there is need for prompt responses to communications that have been sent out to merchants, property owners and capitalists generally in this city ask- ing for support that San Francisco may make a showing at St. Louis that may be a credit and first class adver- tisement for San Francisco. The committee hag received in cash from citizens something more than $12,000. The ‘municipality gives $15,000. As $50,000 is the minimum sum for do- ing the work at St. Louis well, includ- ing the cost of erecting the building, of collecting and installing the exhibits characteristic of this city and of the maintenance at St. Louis during the entire term of the exposition, it will be seen that the San Francisco funds are still something like $23,000 short. To induce prompt action, Secretary King has sent out a circular letter to many citizens, which is in substance as follows: The executive committee in charg San Francieco exhibit at 8t. Louls i of the ks your -+ peals from acts of the plrlor's officers are decided. As it stands now it is one of the most complicated cases that has’ ever engaged the attentior of the Native Daughters, and each day partisanship is growing stronger and more and more | members are becoming arrayed against | one another. Even the parlors in the interior are becoming involved in the matter. Should the verdict be adverse to Past Grand President Keith and the penalty be suspension or expulsion it is probable that there will be a call for a convention of parlors that are friendly to her, for the purpose of organizing ; new order California has employed to get rid of | Is Still Lacking- $23,000| co-operation and assistance in _making a dis- play at the St. Louis World's Pair which will advertise to the world the commercial impor- tance and advantages of San Francisco, and which will be a credit to our city.
