2 THE SAN FmNCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JUNE -12, 1904. . EAST WONDERD ABOUT NATIVED Prospective Arrival of Army of Californians at Fair Arouses Great Curiosity LARGE CAMP PROPOSED | Rumors of Influx of West- erners Create a Furor on| the FExposition Grounds| | BY PAUL EDWARDS. | —_— | CALL BUREAU, WORLD'S FAIR, ST. LOUIS, June 11.—Storles are be- | ginning to float ebout the World's Fair | grounds of 5000 native born Califor- | nians who are coming to the fair in a body some time In the fall and who will camp under the maples up in one corner of the grounds. There is much inquiry about this rumored coming of the native Californians and much cur- iosity on the part of foreigners nnd‘ “way down Easters,” who have never visited the coast. There Is argument as to whether these natives are dark as the Maccabebes and whether they affect the costume of the Igorrote and pugilist or cover themselves with skins. It being generally known that Call- fornia hes & temperate climate, the Igorrote theory prevalls. Besides the savants of New Hampshire and Maine, who have waded clear through the ad- vanced geography and thus gained enviable reputations for learning in the Eastern culture belt, explain that it is the Esquimaux, up about the north pole,who wear skins other than thelr own. | it is generally conceded that the California natives do not eat dogs as do the Igorrotes, so in case the pro- ject of an N. S. G. W. encampment at the World’s Fair carries, the flower of California’'s young manhood will not be charged, as the meek Fillpinos have the crimes committed by the sly wienerwurst man. Lewis F. Aubury, State Mineralogist, who has charge of affairs for the Na- tive Sons at this end, is waiting for redentials to be forwarded him by the d president. As soon as he re- s them he will see the fair officials r ve to the proposed excursion of the parlors. He thinks the encampment ject feasible and believes the offi- p it along, as the visit of men to the region from e fathers of many -of them began the oxtrain journey to the Pa- cific in pioneer days will have a ro- Aubury will gath- as advisers'the other Na- ne in the California colony here, of which there are several.
