When Cali- fornia sent forth the good ship Oregon to defend the flag of our country, the fame of the Western workman spread from one end of the world to the other. Many of the men who drove the rivets that hold together the steel plates of the Oregon are working on the yard to-day.

His speech was very short and was practically a repetition of the words of the men who had pre- ceded him. He closed his remarks with the wish that the mechanics of Mare Island and the men of Vallejo would seriously take ' the words of Senator Perkins and Congressmen Bell and Metcalf. “Do as you have done,” said Schmitz, “and the reputation of California work- men, the foundation of which was laid when was laid the keels of the Charles- ton, the Olympia, the Oregon and the Monadnock, will enable you to demand that your navy yard be given a chance to build something besides a collier.” The banquet ended the day’'s demon- stration and was a most enjoyable af- fair. It was presided over by George J. Campbell, secretary of the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce. Toastmaster Campbell called upon Senator Perkins to respond to toast, “Our Honored Guests.” The response of the Senator was a felici- | tous one, as was also the response of | Lieutenant Governor Alden Anderson to the toast of “California.” Walter MacArthur responded to the | toast of “Organized Labor and Its Re- lation to the Navy Yard.” The re- sponse of Frank R. Devlin, president of the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce, to the toast, “The Vallejo Chamber of Commerce,” brought forth hearty lar reception was given the remarks of Congressman V. H. Metcalf, who, when called upon, told what he knew of “Governmental Shipbuilding.” James Roney, Vallejo's Mavor, told what he knew of *“Vallejo, Its Past, Present and Future,” and Mayor Schmitz responded to the toast, “The City of San Francisco.” The “United States Navy” was the | toast to which Rear -Admiral B.

In his depar- ture he left a trail of blood from sev- eral wounds which the plucky woman inflicted. . Mrs. Perkins was working | in her garden when she heard a noise | in the house, and she at once started te investigate. As she enteréd her bedroom she | came upon a man in the act of rifling a dresser drawer. The man heard her | and turning started to draw a pistol, but she was too quick for him. Rais- | ing her hoe she struck him on the | head with the blade. He tried to grapple with her, but she eluded his [grasp and struck him another blow, which sent him to his knees. Then she began calling for help and the | man staggered out of the house, close- ly pursuéd by the woman. She suc- ceeded in striking him a third blow, but did not fell him. When assistance reached her Mrs. Perkins gave a de- scription of the man and then, as if such encounters were every day af- fairs, returned to worle in her garden.

FINDS A NEW STEEL PROCESS Speclal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, June 1.—Steel and iron men throughout the world will be in- terested to learn that James Gayley, vice president of the TUnited States Steel Corporation, afer a long series of experiments, has practically per- fected a new process for making steel ‘which he believes will greatly reduce the cost to manufacturers. For years Gayley has been working on the process. He has recently told his friends that his experiments con- ducted at the Isabella furnaces in the Pittsburg district ‘belonging to the United States Steel Corporation have Indicated that the new method will prove a practical success, It is under- stood that they have resulted in reduc- ing the moisture of the air applied in the converting of ore to pig iron and steel. Other new features have also been introduced. Briefly stated, the Gayley process of making steel is a modification of the Bessemer process, which revolutionized iron and steel industries. The process will be applied to the manufacture of pig iron as well as steel. Friends of Gayley assert that the process will greatly cheapen the cost of production. —_————— CHEAP RATES TO YOSEMITE. $25.90 There and Back.

OFFICERS TRAP Captain of Arizona Rangers and a Deputy United States Marshal in a Battle Special Dispatch to The Call. TUCSON, Ariz., June 1.—After a ten days’ chase, Tom Rinning, captain of the rangers, and Jack Foster, the plucky little Deputy United States Marshal, yesterday captured Wil ‘Woods and Kid Fluker near Paradise, a new town in Cochise County. Woods and Fluker are the two most notorious men of the road in this country and the officers knew that they could not be taken without a fight, The officers caught theé trail of the renegades at Paradise, striking that camp a few hours after they had left. At the San Simon ranch, Rinning and Foster were but a short distance be- hind the fugitives and a few miles further on they came upon the out- of a lonely cabin in the foothills. Fluker and his partner took refuge in the cabin and, poking their rifles out between the logs, opened fire. The officers ran behind trees and rocks and then put bullet after bullet through the cracks of the cabin, compelling the out- laws to lie flat on the floor, in which position they could do very little firing. In this way Rinning and Foster closed in on the cabin and made a rush for the door. The outlaws surrendered. They were taken to Nogales, as.the crimes for ‘which they will be tried were committed in Santa Cruz County. ———— LOSES CUSTODY OF CHILD.—The Su- preme Court yesterday refused the petition of May Shaw that her daughter, Violet Lund- burg. be taken from the custody of the So- clety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and given Into her own charge, She said she had not been notified of y attempt on the arf of any one to take the child away from er.
