Boxton, who is chairman of the Po- lice Committee, opposed the granting of the permit and read from the or- dinance to show that the association is correct in its contention. Boxton held that the section on that point would have to be repealed if the board pro- posed to grant permits to clubs not members of the Pacific Amateur As- sociation. Eggers, who, with McClellan, had recommended in a majority report of the Police Committee that the permit be granted, declared that the Amateur Association had itself violated the amateur rules and that the ordinance had been declared unconstitutional by the Superior Court in that it dictates that amateur clubs must belong to a particular association to the exclusion of others. ing around to in a blg automobile $1000 of my coin was up as his forfeit and still he says: ‘I thought was my friend.” 1 was his friend und always did what I could for him, but when it comes right down to the point I fail to see what he ever did in the way of friendship for me. “I have only heard one man say that Corbett won and that man was Biddy Bishop.

CHICO, March 28.—Professor Stu- Jbenrauch and P. H. Dorsett, repre- senting the United States Department of Agriculture, to-day finally selected a site within three miles of Chico for the. proposed plant introduction gar- den, for which various lecalities of the State have been striving for months past. Several.localities in Southern California made most liberal offers of lnrv\l%‘nnd water rights, e Sacramento Valley Develop-~ ment Asscciation, working in the ins terest of the Sacramento Valley, rec- ommended Chico to the committee, which a couple of months ago selected the Hooker Oak Tract of Bidwell farm, but this was unavailable, and the committee returned to make a new selection. Ninety acres, three miles southeast of Chico, being part of the J. F. Entler farm, were selected, and final papers were drawn to-day whereby the Government enters into immediate possession. The first work will be done to-mor~ row, preparatory to receiving plants. The purchase price is $9000, and $2000 or $3000 will be required for an irrigation system and other improve- ments to be made by the public. Tt is proposed to maintain and study at the garden all of the plants which the De- partment of Agriculture introduces from different parts of the world. “Bridge Whist,” “Five Hundred” and all other tally cards, “Military Euchre,” | o SAN TS5 Jarch 5 Sapatons Blosom ;:émch‘i’ “‘Panie,” '!"llflt"‘ and all new by San Jose Blossom day, ‘April 7, Con; aying Cards.
