CALL BUREAU, WORLD'S FAIR, ST. LOUIS, May 24.—Golden Gate Park, the beautiful, whose charm has in- spired people from every part of the globe, is doing its share to make Cali-| fornia’s display at the World’s Fair a success. It has contributed liberally ';} its wealth of vegetation, and its contri- bution has been used with fine effect: | on the grounds of the California build- ing by George C. Roeding, who has in| charge the beautification of these grounds and the placing of California | trees, plants and shrubs that are used in other places within the fair grounds as decorations. San Francisco's wanderful park has sent on a fine collection, and its com- missioners are receiving the praises of the Californians here for their gener- osity. The most interesting things in the collection are a baby Sequoia gi- gantea (California big tree) and three baby Sequoia sempervirens (coast red- wood). The little big tree is eight feet high and the others ten feet high. They are of about ten years’ growth. These trees are very interesting to Eastern- ers and foreigners who have heard of | the wonderful Mariposa grove and the vast redwood forests of California. There are a number of varieties of Japanese fir and one California spruce tree In the park collection; also speci- mens of the New Zealand flax, a strik- ing flowering plant of variegated col- ors; and a boos. large collection of delicate bam- The park sends altogether 100 varieties of trees, shrubs and plants, and they seem to be doing very well in the Missouri spring. FINE COUNTY EXHIBITS. Fresno contributes to the California building grounds Canary Island date palms, blue palms and windmill palms, all of the finest sort. The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce has provided a | fine collection of palms. R. M. Teague of Dimas, Los Angeles County, supplied orange trees, which may bear fruit here if the severe winter has not chilled their marrow, and Santa Barbara has sent a number of small plants. Stockton and San Joaquin County have made a fine contribution. In this collection are handsome palms and 200 varieties of house plants. The most striking feature of the San Joaquin | contribution are specimens of the Span- ish bayonet, or variegated yucca. It is doubtful whether the yucca will bloom here. Sacramento is to have the honor of placing two pomolo or grape fruit| trees in front of the main entrance of the Palace of Agriculture. These trees have just arrived and they still bear | come ripe fruit. They will furnish a | mento Valley. Wherever California palms, plants or fruit trees are placed for they bear the California label, for all to read. The central part of the Pal- ace of Horticulture, which is reserved | as a place for the weary to rest, is or- namented with five palms from Golden State, by nearly every one who is attracted by their beaut Commissioner Joplin of Orange | County is going to show the fair visit- | | ors what California is capable of in the production of beets. He cannot procure a 250-pound specimen, such as shown at Chicago, but he has sent on for one weighing 150 pounds that has | been recommended to him. The lower part of this he will put in a cube of peat soil he has on exhibition. About three feet of the agricultural specimen will then project into the air and the top will grow. This peat land produces the finest celery and biggest beets grown in Orange. CITRUS FRUIT DISPLAY. C. W. Merritt, the commissioner from Santa Barbara County, is receiving | consignments of exgellent lemons and | pomelos from the Crocker-Sperry ranch | in his county. Potatoes thirteen inches in length, and stock beets forty-five pounds attract many peopie to Santa Barbara’s exhibit. California’s forestry display was given a high compliment the other day by Mr. Elwes of the celebrated Kew Gardens, in England. He especially admired the specimens of polished red- wood burl. Among the distingsished San Fran- ciscans at the fair is Boo Wan Hoy, a highbinder of the Hop Sing Tong, who as several nicks in his hatchet, which | isn’t used for cutting cherry trees, and who about three months ago was ac- | quitted, by outswearing the prosecu- | tion, of the charge of trying to slaugh- ter a Yin Sing Ting man in Waverly place. Boo was walking about oui- etly enjoying the sights of the fair when Detective Reynolds of San Fran- cisco said “Hello!” to him. “Whassa mallah?” asked Boo, look- ing in vain for an alleyway as his mind hurried back over a long list of unexpiated crimes. “What you wantee ?’ Reynolds told Boo he only wished to revive a pleasant acquaintance, and the Celestial head-hunter took his gaze off the entrance to the Tyrolean Alps, in whose labyrinths he woul have felt safer than under the eve of a San Francisco officer. Boo said he only came here to work, and not as an avenging angel. He would be a curi- osity on the pike in this city, where the bark of the highbinder's gun is not one of the discordant notes in a peaceful civilization. CALIFORNIANS ENTERTAINED. gation and the Cali- fornia State Foard of Trade excursion | have ceased to exist as sight-seeing bodies and the members have scatter- ed, each to return home as he wills. Some have gone farther East, some have returned to California and many are still here. The California build- ing has been their headquarters, and Commissioner Filcher has placed him- self at their service as guide. He has conducted the visitors to all the Cal- ifornia exhibits and the principal dis- plays of the fair in general. There is 80 much to see that it can only be briefly skimmed over in a short timé. Some of the Californians now here will return again in the fall, Commissioners H. C. Rapp of Contra Costa and Fred Buck of Solano have returned home, their business calling them away. ‘Woodlawn Gates of Los Angeles, who is Senator Bard's secretary, and Dr. Doremus and wife of Santa Barbara were among this week’s visitors, The representatives of the Sacra- mento Valley Development Association are having some trouble in placing the reproduction of the great ‘seal of California, done in beans, that was sent here from Sacramento.

Western Federation of Miners Seats Rockefeller Delegation. DENVER, May 24—The Western Federation of Miners’ convention spent the entire morning over the re- port of the committee on credentials. The only. contest was in the delegation | from the Butte engineers. The dele- | gation consisting of Joseph Colby, J. F. Lyford, Malcolm Gillis and J. Stodden was seated. The men are said to be employes of the Rockefel- ler properties, while the defeated del- egation was employed on the Heinze properties. One of the most important acts of the convention thus far was the seat- ing of delegates sent by the United Mine Workers of America and the American Federation of Labor. Their credentials were read to-day and al- though they will have no voting pow- ers they will be permitted to engage in discussion upon all matters per- taining to labor. This action is sig- nificant, in that it is the first official recognition of the two organizations given by the Western Federation of Miners since its withdrawal from the American Federation of Labgr. % | feet square.
