Ferdinand A.

Mr. Haber thinks California is going to be finely represented in this line and is confident that great good will result to the wine indus from the exhibit given and the samp EDUCATION ON WINES. “Mine will be a campaign of educa- tion,” said Mr. Haber to-day. “I want teach the people from sections where wine does not flow as it does in Cali- ornia that the juice of the grape does not produce intemperance. Statistics ow that less drunkenness exists among wine-drinking people than among those of other sections. Wine drinking in moderation is beneficial, and crime and degradation never thrive where the grape purples under the sun I intend that those who are really interested in the industry shall sample our best wines, that they may learn, if they do not already know, that no spot on earth produc ny better wines than those of California.

The interior finish, owing to the lim- | ited amount of money subscribed, will not be as handsome as could have been | desired, but it will look very well. The rafters are left uncovered, but they! wijl be painted. A tongue-and-groove | pine ceiling would perhay. have en-| hanced the interior view. Californians were surprised to hear ! the other day that the first fresh | grapes at the fair would be shown ' by New York State. They were re- lieved, however, when they learned that these grapes had been in cold storage all winter. Refrigerator gnpe»\ do not alarm the Pacific Coasters.

Their “corral,” as it is called, lies in a forest of maples | &t one corner of the Philippine grounds. | Their World's Fair home consists of a | number of thatched huts inside a bam- boo fence. They seem pleased with visitors, though they refuse to dress much to receive them. Their lack of wearing apparel has not attracted the attention of any organization, but their penchant for roast dog has awakened the Humane Society. The Igorrotes love dog and any pups that wander out toward their inclosure never see mama zgain. The Humane Society has been thwarted up to date throush the fact that the Igorrotes are just outside the city limits. The yelp of the disappear- ing pup is still heard in the night and the Government meat bill Is lessened thereby. FILIPINOS ARE ATTRACTIVE. The Congressional Commission that came down from Washington on the opening day went over to look at the ground, . Philippine exhibit as a matter of duty and education. The members called on the Igorrotes just to see how some of ling that will be done. | 1 tumn. || | have been sleeping, packed closely, | ed portions of the Philippines, | is another si ,Vi!ilors to the fair.

A single | totem pole is something that attracts the eye and a forest of them certainly makes a unique sight. Just to show the “ncorrocmeu of the statement” made at the time that America was only getting an ice box from Russia when it purchased Alas- ka and that no good would accrue to this country from it, Governor Brady has had prepared a gilt cube repre- senting the $22,000,000 gold output of Alaska, and this is displayed promi- nently in comparison with the $7.200,000 paid for the northern territory. The gold output, together with that of fish and furs, and not counting the rhu- barb at all, make a story of Alaskan riches that is opening the Zyes of the world to the possibilities of the land that was contemptuously called an ice box, but which has proven itself a treasure chest.

Six California Painters Have Exhibits at St. Louls Fair. ST. LOUIS, May 6. — The works of | six California artists will be hung| among the paintings of the world in the | Fine Arts building at the Louisiana | Purchase Exposition. There are four| | San Franciscans on the list. The six| and their subjects are: Ben C. Brown| of Pagadena, “Mount Lowe at Sunset™; Granville Redman of Los Angeles, | “California Landscape”; Matteo San- dona of San Francisco, portrait of Mr. Unger; G. F. Piazzoni of San Francisco, “The End of Day"; J. M. Gamble, of San Francisco, “The Golden Poppy"; Miss Laura Prather of San Francisco, miniature of Miss Nina Clay. There is great complaint among Cali- fornia painters and these of other States at the alleged discrimination shown by the committee in favor of | foreign work. The reply made is that 80 many paintings were put in com- petition from all over the world that more space could not be given to the Americans without treating the for- eigners unjustly.

Burnham of Chicago was the honored guest of the evening and | he made the opening remarks. James D. Phelan acted as chairman, and after imtroducing Burnham read a communication from Bruce Porter. Porter was unable to be present, so he | sent a letter in which he suggested that Plerce street, from Bay to Haight, be converted into an avenue between the succession of small parks and squares of which it forms the main axis, and that trees be planted on both sides; that hills too steep for traffic be made and resting places, and that there should be more parks and playgrounds south of Mar- | ket street. The communication was well | recejved. * Daniel Burnham next took the floor. He/explained that in order to make any headway in the beautifying of the | city public spirit and enthusiasm must | be aroused, and that all citizens should do their utmost toward carrying out the good work. He said that no artist could be inspired into doing his best work unless indorsed .by public sym- pathy and enthusiasm. Burnham ex- plained that he was not present to speak, but to hear suggestions from those assembled. Mrs. Wagner, representing the Out- door Art League, reported that her as- sociation was enthusiastic over its re- cent victory in the preservation of Tel- and promised that in all resolutions adopted for the adornment of the city the Outdoor Art League will be ready to give assistance. Major Randolph suggested that the Presidio be improved in order that it may be a pleasure ground for the peo- ple of the city. Mrs. Baldwin of the California Club maintained that more attention should be given to the streets and that better schoolhouses be built. Supervisor Braunhart said that the beauties we already possess should be preserved before other plans are made. Mr. Stader of the Fairmount Club sug- gested that the city start a zoological garden in the city, as there is none ex- cept that at the Chutes. Supervisor Brandenstein proposed that a commission on the adornment of the city be elected, the officers of which receive no salaries. Dr. Taylor of the Board of Freeholders made a strong address unon the ugliness of telegraph poles and wires, the ununiform manner in which houses are placed beside the sidewalks and suggested that the tele- graph companies be forced to lay their wires underground. Yesterday morning Mr. Burnham was entertained at an informal reception given by the San Francisco Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. 1 He was the honored guest at a luncheon at the Pacific-Union Club, at which William Bourn. was host.

With attorneys anxiéus to get away to other matters, however, | the question whether Defendants Hyde and Dimond shall be held for trial at Washington will probably be finally submitted to Commissioner Heacock | early next week. An indication of Hea- | cock’s diminishing patience was shown at the close of yesterday’s session when | he announced that on Monday he | would sit at 10 o’clock instead of his usual hour of 10:30. The long ordeal of Henry P. Di- mond's cross-examination ended yes- terday. On returning to the stand he answered “No” to Heney’'s question whether he had read the account of the hearing on May 2, printed in The | Call of the following morning, which exclusively reBorted his errors in writ- | ing “ownes” for “owns” and “dummys” for “dummies.” The question suggest- ed a possible reason for the witness’ improved spelling the next day. Di- mond, however, dropped the admission that on leaving court after his first writing exercise he had sald to his counsel, Wheeler, that he believed he had misspelled “owns,” and that this must have been due to the deep im- | pression left on his mind by the same | | misspelling in the anonymous letter to the Secretary of the Interior. He had previously testified that he had merely glanced over the epistle in question. DIMOND IS RELIEVED. Bert Schlesinger, of Hyde's counsel, | asked a few questions to show that | Dimond, while acting as Hyde's attor- ney before the General Land Office, had not sought to expedite any Hyde- | Benson lieu selections that he knew to | be based on fraudulent State titles. To | all these queries the witness made sat- | isfactory answer and then with an aud- | ible sigh of relief left the stand, where he had been testifying for nearly three weeks. Knight announced that the fol- | lowing well known citizens were ready, if called upon, to swear to Dimond's | good reputation: James P. Langhorne, Henry J. Crocker, Ex-Judge C. W. Van Fleet, William R. Wheeler, Edwin New- hall, Charles L. Patton, Willis G. Dodd, | Curtis H. Lindley, J. B. Stetson, Al- tred Stillman, Thomas Cole, Wilfred | B. Chapman, Willlam M. Pierson, Sam- uel B. Welch, George R. Shreve and Morris U. Bates. Schlesinger made, the next move, re- calling the three rnment witness- es, William E. Valk, Woodford D. Har- lan and Benjamin F. Allen, who told the Grand Jury at the Federal capital that ther had been bribed to further the Hyde-Benson land transactions. Each admitted in answer to the ques- tions of Hyde's attorney that he was still in the employ of the Interior De- partment, but each denied that he had any understanding with his superiors | as to retaining his job. Then Schles- | inger called Detective Burns back to the stand, where he had already a doz- en times refused to give information as to what evidence the Government may have besides that presented to the Grand Jury. BUR IS NOT TELLING. “How many witnesses have you in- terviewed in the State of Oregon while | were working up this case?’ the Q “I decline tc answer,” snapped Burns, tired of saying the : me thing so often. “Your Honor, we ask that the wit- ness be instructed to answer.” “We object,” shouted Heney. “Objection sustained,” said the com- missioner. A score of questions met the same fate, and Schlesinger had to give it up. Leon Samugls, Herbert Clarke and Walter K. Slack were brought back by Heney for further cross-examination. | The additional point was brought out | that envelopes of the sort used for one of the anonymous letters to Secretary | | Hitchcock were lying about the Hyde | offices in quantities when Dimond took | desk room there. Knight made another effort to implicate Samuels and Slack | with_the anonymous letters and there- By provoked some angry answers from each. No new evidence, however, tend- ing to show that they wrote the letters | or that Dimond did not, was brought out. Both of them testified that Hyde | had told them that he engaged Di- | mond as “a confidential man.” | ———— Well" Known Druggist Dies. Emery P.
