In the assembly hall this evening Miss Esther Macomber gave a recita- tion and Miss Kathleen Parlow of San | Francisco rendered a violin solo.

The Chautauqua welcome reception occurred in the assembly hall parlors after the lecture this’evening. An ad- | dress was delivered by Dr. McClish of San Jose and a collation was served. To-morrow’s programme includes a conversation on art by John Ivey and | & lecture by Dr. Hillis in the evening. | ————— | FAIRBANKS A TYPICAL | FRONTIER MINING CAMP superin Metropolis of Tanana District is Pros- | perous and Outlook for the Sea- son Is Good. TACOMA, Wash., July 12—Alaskan | advices state that Fairbanks, the me- | tropolis of the Tanana district, has become a typical frontier mining \town | witn ten saloons. Gambling is carried on in all of them, besides in cigar stores. So far currency has been scarce | and gold dust passes for currency as formerly at Dawson.

Much min- | ing machinery is being taken in in an-| ticipation of the next winter's work. | Most of it will remain on the river| bank until the snows come, because the | cost of hauling it over the rough sum- mer roads is prohibitive. | Provisions cost about twice as much | as in Dawson.

EUREKA. July 12—After three days | of stage travel through a hundred | miles of the finest scenery in Califor- | nia the fourth excupsion party of the | California Promotion Committee ar rived in Eureka to-night at 9:30 o'clock. The party was met at Camp Five, the terminus of the Santa Fe systém in Humboldt County, by a special train and the following gentlemen of Eu- | reka: C. P. Seule, G. A. Kellogg, John | M. Vance, Mayor Clark, H. L. Ricks, | B. F. Porter, N. H. Pine, W. 8. Van| Cott, W, N. Speegle, H. F. Charters, F. i B. Hink, J. N, Adams, L. F. Puter, H. | H. Buhne, W. E. Cook and C. P. Cut-| ten. y | The party came to Eureka, where an | informal reception awaited the guests. | It was natural that the party should be | tired when they reached Eureka. A | stage ride of forty-five miles in one | day over mountain roads is no joke. | But that tired feeling disappeared when the band commenced to play. Not | only did the people of Eureka have 4 | band to welcome the party, but a spe- cial electric car, gayly decorated and brilliant with electric effects, to con- vey them to the Hotel Vance, where they will be the guests of Mr. Dough- erty during the stay in Eureka. Noth- | ing is left undone by Eureka to add to the comfort of all. Everything in this city, of 11,000 in- | habitants, appears anxious to be at me; service of the Promotion Committee | excursionists. To-morrow the surrounding- country | will be visited under the guidance of the Chamber of Commerce of Eureka. | There is ne programme for to-night. | The local committee, with rare judg- | ment and foresight, thought it best to | let the visitors rest. All will sleep with visions of giant redwoods, stage drives, fog effects, bands playing, bril- liant electric cars, hospitable people and at last real bed. Arriving at their rooms each member found his baggage | awaiting him and also cards of ad- mission to the Humboldt Club, as well as all sorts of invitations to banquets and functions prepared in their honor. ———— BOAT IS BEACHED AND PASSENGERS GO ASHORE | Heavy Storms Cause Accident to the Charles R. Spencer, but No Alarm Is Created. THE DALLES, Or., July 12—On her down trip this morning the fast river steamer Charles R. Spencer met with a bad accident about eight miles north of this city near Rowena stat/'wn, break- ing her hog chains and “making it necessary for her captain to beach her | on the Oregon shore. | The accident was due to the exceed- | ingly rough water caused by the heavy | gale which had blown all night and | was still high. Owing to the prompt| action of the officers no alarm was| the passengers, who | were immediately landed and walked to the nearby railway station. The steamer still lies on the beach, from | which position she will be towed to this city as early as possible for re-! pairs. There was little damage besides | the breaking of the hog chains. | ——— AND GAG WOMAN AND RANSACK HOUSE i | | i ! BIND Robbers Use Rough Means to Ac- complish Purpose, but Secure Small Sum.

CALL BUREAU, PRESS BUILD- ING, WORLD'S FAIR, ST. LOUXS_. July 12.—Three stereopticon lectures a day furnish pretty strenuous occupa- tion, yet that is the task that J. W. Er- win has set for himself at the San Francisco building. There are three things over which Erwin is enthusias- tic They are San Francisco, California and the wizard screen. Photography and the reproduction of scenes on the white surface are fountains of delight for this amateur of the camera, and what more natural than with his love for the State that he claims he should use his knowledge of the photczraphic art to advance her interests? He is doing this and in a most successful manner. Erwin gives one of his illustrated lec- tures at 2 o’clock at the San Francisco building in the Model City, another at 4 o'clock and another at 8 o'clock. "e hall, which extends the full length of the rear of the building, seats about 300 people. At the first lecture there were about seventy-five people, who dropped in casually from those coming and go- ing in the outer part of the structure. | O about the pictures, for at the next lec- ture there were double that many peo- ple, including some who had attended the first one. At the third lecture there were about the same number, but the next day the hall was full at all of them and it has been so ever since whenever Erwin gave his tri-daily en- tertainment. Many of the views shown are applauded. Up to date they have all been of San Francisco, but the whole State will be embraced. The lectures will be given during the remainder of | the fair. WILCOMB IN CHARGE. George Marsh, who has been putting in a Japanese exhibit in the ‘building, has returned to San Francisco with his | wife. George P. Wilcomb, who shares with Erwin in the custody of the San Fran- cisco building, has been gramted an- other month’s leave of absence by the Golden Gate Park Commission—he is curator of the museum at the park— and he will remain that much longer at the building, where his time will be well occupied in the interests of the Orange. culture in the Sacramento Valley is a subject of-much inquiry by | Eastern visitors to the fair. The big | oranges displayed by the Saeramento Valley Development Association and the jnformation that they mature in the valley from four to six weeks ear- lier than in any other part of the State, thus assuring a good price, are arousing great interest among pros- pective purchasers of small farms, hundreds of whom visit the Sacra- mento Vallev and othgr California displays. Orange growing is already an important industry in the valley and is destined to become still greater. Surprise is manifested by visitors that such fine oranges can be grown in Sacramento and the more northern counties, such as Butte, Yuba and Placer. That northern California srows great quantities of this citrus fruit of great size and fine qualitv is of the East, though in some cities Sacramento Valley oranges are well known. HOMESEEKERS SURPRISED. That thev can get first-class irrigat- ed orange land for from $50 to $100 an acre is also a surprise to the home- seekers. Colonel Green and Judge WilZ lis, in charge of the display, say that many people with enough money to buy small homes will inspect the Glenn, Yuba, Sacramento and other northern counties. The homeseeker in the Sacramento Vallev exhibit is like a woman in a department store—there are so many articles that look good that she doesn't know which to choose. The display offers a variety of agri- cultural opportunities that causes dal- liance on the part of the man who wants to settle on a small tract, and they nearly all come to the conclusion that there is nothing worth while that cannot be grown on the rich Sacra- mento Valley land. Trees growing on their booth is a novelty by which San Luis Obispo and Monterey counties attract visitors. On top of one of the columns that sur- round the booth is a tiny pine tree .in a vessel. On another is a fig tree. Enough semi-sunshine oozes through the immense skylights in the roof of the Palace of Agriculture to give them life and growth and they stand beauti- fully green and diminutively majestic tually growing in the big structure. GROWING TREES DISPLAYED. But Commissioner Black and his wife, who _represent these counties, have gone even further into the grow- ing-plant scheme of decoration. About each white pillar of the booth an ivy is entwining itself and clambering up- ward to reach the pine and the fig. The living green against the white pillars is a very artistic decoration. Growing sword ferns top the columns not occu- pied by the tiny trees. it is not likely that any one will be appointed to fill the secretaryship of the California World's Fair Commis- sion made vacant by the resignation of E. B. Willis. Miss Pringle, the stenog- rapher, will probably do the clerical work of the office and will be given an hibit of that county, has returned home, | | ifornia are applauding Judge Willis as ! satisfied he had not kept Mary out late, assistant at a small salary. The hard- est work is over with, but there will still be enough to keep this force from ennui. 2 Daily telegrams recording the tem- perature of Santa Barbara are re- ceived at the booth of that county from | l C. M. Gibney, secretary of the Cham- ber of Commerce of that county, and hung up for public inspection. For five days one week this temperature was 71 degrees each day, but that didn't garticularly impress the Easterners, Jeir 'WIZARD SCREEN ENABLES EASTERNERS TO SE =} J. H.

The question with them is not how hot is it, but what variety of “hot” is it. GIER GOES HOME. Theodore Gier, one of the three Ala- meda commissioners, who has been | here some weeks in charge of the ex- | Gier is well satisfied that his county | has the best representation here and | feels confident from the many people | who have visited the booth and made | inquiries concerning the resources of | Alameda that the money expended on | the display will flow back many fold. Gier worked enthusiastically while here and his talks in praise of Alameda did that county much good. Webb N. Pearce is now in sole charge of the exhibit and will be until fall. The com- mission has full confidence in-his abil- ity to take care of the interests\of.the county-at the exposition. Stanley Fish is in charge of the Contra Costa end of the exhibit and is doing good work for his locality. Alameda and Contra Costa show similar products. A coach load of Santa Ana citizens has rcached the exposition under cnrel of J. A. Turner of that city and the ex- cursionists are being looked after by | Commissioner Joplin of Orange. | Harry A. Gillig, the commissioner sent by German wine growers on the Rhine to investigate the “wine industry of California preliminary to the exodus of many vineyardists of the Rhine to the Golden State, registered at the Cal- ifornia wine men’s exhibit and wrote after his name: “This is truly a ‘sun- rise exhibit.” Californians should drink their own wines. They are good enough for anybody.” Gillig explained to Commissioner Ha- ber that a “sunrise exhibit” meant to him one that resembled the riging sun, rather than the setting sun, more fre- quently associated with California; but he also said that, rising or setting, the exhibit would open the eyes of the world to California’s greatness as a wine-producing section and serve to bring customers from among those not now familiar with the vintages of the Golden State. WILLS:A GALLANT. The County Commissioners from Cal- the most gallant man from the Golden State in St. Louis. He was at thé Cal- ifornia delegation headquarters on the night that Dr. Mary Walker made her visit there. The rest of the crowd, which included many Easterners, had | fun with the lady in silk tile and trous- ers, but when she suddenly announced that she wanted some gentleman to es- cort her to the cars, two blocks away, and put her on the right one for the Laclede Hotel, there was a panic. The door was blocked with Democrats’ who suddenly had to go into caucus else- ‘where. Men who had faced heavy ar- tillery, cvclones and Bryan without flinching looked for any sort of a hole when Dr. Mary Walker made her. re- quest. Mary looked pained and sur- prised and repeated her coy invitation, but it appeared that every man present was busy except Judge Willls, who stepped forward and acted as escort. He did not return to the Jefferson that night, but all the Californians were as the Judge is very considerate of the female sex. This little act has brought him sudden fame and also a photo- graph of the lady, which he will exhi- bit with the hop horse and prune bear. M. J. Dillman, one of the Sacramento County Supervisors, is visiting the ex- position. Louis Dreyfus, a Santa Barbara cap- italist, is at the fair. 8. F.
