Dr. Simpson had instructed the nurse to give the patient doses of magnesium sulphate. The medicines are kept in a closet and no drug clerk is retained by the Government to dispense the rem- edies. On Bunday evening Miss Willey went to the medicine closet to get a bottle of magr sulphate solution.

Johnson hovered be- and death till 1:30 o’clock afternoon, when he passed away Detective Ed Gibson was detailed on the case, but did not arrest the girl pending completion of the autopsy, which wi be performed this morning. r mpson is of the opinion that Johnson died of a punctured lung, caused by a broken rib being forced through his respiratory organ during & fit of coughing, induced by the ef- fects of the poison. Detectives Gibson believes that death was caused by the poise which was the indirect cause, even though a lung was punctured. If it is found that death was due to the bichloride, Miss Willey will be charged to-day with manslaughter. The nurse is not a graduate, but is known as a trained nurse. She was about to take the examination to grad- sete. She spent eighteen months in the California Women's Hospital and had been six months at the Marine Hospital. She is 20 years of age and keenly feels the awfulness of her mis- take. Johnson was a sailor on the ship Glory of the Seas. —_———— MAYOR GIVES CITY'S KEYS TO THE CARNIVAL QUEEN Sacramento’s Midsummer Fete Held | Under Auspices of Native Sons Is Opened. SACRAMENTO, July 18.—The Na- tive Sons’ midsummer carnival opened here to-day auspiciously. Queen Alleen Newton was escorted by a troop of cavalry and her maids of honor to her throne, where the Mayor | delivered to her the keys of the city. The carnival is held on the Tenth- street plaza and surrounding streets, with & host of shows and amusement booths. The week will be filled by a ribbon parade, forty-niner parade, a parade of Native Sons and Daughters, receptions, tennis tournament and the like. The promise is for a success- ful week of fun and wholesome amusement. The purpose is to raise money to add to the fund for the State celebration of Admission day by the order next year. DR.

The one used for members of the Grand Lodge and their families and friends carried 2000, and the one for members of the press and others had 1000 persons aboard. As the steamboats returned from a | cruise to Coney Island the twelve Ken- ! tucky suburbs and the river front of | Cincinnati and “its Ohfo suburbs riv- aled one another In a display that | really asumed the proportions of a bat- | tie of fireworks. The boathouses of various clubs were equipped as bat- tleships along the shores, and the wharf boats were arranged in similar form, presenting a magnificent naval display in action as the fireworks were operated. This great exhibition closed with a huge illuminated picture of Grand Exalted Ruler Fanning at the Cincinnati public landing. It is esti- mated that more than 100,000 persons witnessed the scenes along both banks of the Ohio, after which various enter- tainments were given. | The Grand Lodge will open with a public session at 10 o’clock to-morrow in the Music Hall, preceded by an organ recital and other musical num- bers. Following the address of wel- come and responses, the annual re- ports will be presented and the election of officers will end the animated con- tests that were going on to-night for grand exalted ruler, grand exalted secretary and other offices. While there have been no material changes during the day, a very hard fight is being made by the field against what is known as the administration slate. O’'Brien of Baltimore, for grand ex- alted ruler, and Robinson of Dubuque, for grand exalted secretapy, are still favorites as the so-called administra- tion candidates, but the election of no | one seems to be assured. —_— SEVEN WOMEN LOSE THEIR LIVES IN CLOUDBURST | Hundreds of Bufldings Are Inundated at Valparaiso Through Phenom- enal Downpour of Water.

Pollack, at the Cadillac; J. W. Brockhage, at the Sinclair; O. F. Brown, at the Astor House; J. Harris and wife, at the Ven- dome; F. M. Harvey, at the Sinclair; B. E. Knox and wife, at the Everett; E. F. Marks, at the Grenoble; C. H. ‘Murphy, at the Ashland; H. C. Schaertzer and wife, G. W. Turner, at the Hotel Imperial. From Los Angeles—W. W. Best, at the Herald Square; Dr. H. M. Bishop and wife, at the Ashland; F. L. Bul- lard, at the Grand Union; F. Hersch, at the Herald Square; M. A. Newmark, | at the Savoy; R. A. Thomas, at the ! Hotel Grenoble, other citrus fruits owe their origin to this common ancestor, evolution and the science of horticulture having im- proved their flavor and given them the prettv coats with which they cut such a dash in the world of fruits. The humble shaddock with its rough, thick rind and its tough interior is the ancestor of the orange. One of these, | of enormous size, arrived for Frank | Kimball, the commissioner from San and | Diego, and it was by Kimball through thie shaddock that the visitors were enlightened as to the famiiv his- tory of the golden fruits that so de- | light the eye and the palate, and which every one firmly believed came with all their golden glow and nectar flavor direct from the garden of Eden. “The father of all citrus fruits,” said Kimball, as he gazed affectionately at ! the homely shaddock, almost as big as his head, that had made the trip to | St. Louis from the yard of W. H. Put- nam in the city of San Diego. THE SHADDOCK'S CHILDREN. “By grafting and hybridizing,” said Commissioner Kimball, “the horticul- tural scientists have evolved the shaddock. The Chinese did part of { this, and the shaddock’s better flavored | children, finding their way across Tibet and Russia to the Mediterranean, were still further improved until we have to-dav the perfected fruit grown in California and other favored parts of the world.” The grape fruit, or pomelo, so gen- erally used as a breakfast dish, is but a civilized shaddock—a citrus hybrid struggling on its way to the upper tendom of the aristocratic orange and lemon. The new arrival from San Diego has been given a place of honor in the Cal- ifornia display in the Palace of Horti- culture, and, as the venerable father of the proud citrus family, it is gazed upon with respect by all the other fruits from their jars and dishes. Mr. Kimball says that in the early sixties a Chinaman brought from his native country to Oakland some shad- dock seed, which he planted in the yard | of the home where he was employed, and that there must be some shaddocks standing there to-day. The Sacramento Valley is going to secure a total of more advertising out of this fair than it has obtained during almost all its previous existence. It has awakened to the fact that advertising is necessary to draw homeseekers, and it is entering into this fair with a de- termination to win. It will win. Re- sults are coming already, and the ex- position is not half over; neither have the gPi8 crowds passed through its gates. The three closing months will in all likelihood make a new record for attendance at world’s fairs, and every lccality properly represented will reap the benefit. DISPLAYING GREAT ENERGY. Not only is the Sacramento Valley making a great and successful effort to show its resources, but the city of Sacramento—the central city of this rich section—is doing something on its own account. It has three paid repre- sentatives in St. Louis working for the good of thé whole valley during the fair. The leader of these is General J. G. Martine, and he is assisted by J. H. Devine and H. P. Rowley. They have headquarters and an office at the Hamilton Hotel, and work there and at the other large hotels of the city— the Southern, Planters and Jefferson particularly. Their efforts are confined to meeting visitors of means and inter- esting them in the Sacramento Valley. They talk with many of these, and their work should bring good results. They also assist in giving information to visitors at the Sacramento Valley displays at the palaces of Agriculture and Horticulture. Sacramento, Butte, Colusa, El Do-. rado, Glenn, Placer, Shasta, Sutter, Tehama, Yuba and Yolo are the coun- ties embraced in the association. Equally effective work is being done for each of them by the representatives here. The nut industry of California is re- ceiving full exemplification at this ex- position and the result will probably be the sale of many small tracts of land to homeseekers who see possibili- ties in this branch of horticulture. The nuts of California find a good sale in the East, but the finer and selected ones do not usually reach the aver- age person and the masses of visitors are surprised at the great size of some of the walnuts and almonds shown. It is the almond of which the greatest display is made and the English wal- nut is a close second. There are also filberts or hazelnuts, peanuts and some other varieties, San Joaquin County even showing pecans, which are grown on an island ranch below Stockton. ' The principal display of al- monds and walnuts is made in the hor- ticultural building, where stand pillars of them two feet square, each surface showing a different varfety of nut. Every county in the Palace of Agri- culture display exhibits nuts. In some cases the ugly pillars that support the roof of the building are encased with glass frames, behind which are poured nuts, the pillars thus being made or- namental and none the less useful. Nuts are shown everywhere in cases, both in the shell and also shelled to show the excellence of their meat. PARDEE TAKES NOTES. Governor Pardee, while here, took a great many mental notes in regard to exposition work to aid him in securing proper representation at the Lewis and Clark exposition in Portland next year. The State has appropriated $20,- 000 for an exhibit there and the Gov- the | orange and’ other citrus fruits from | | | revenue cutter service, was at the fair during the week with his wife, on his way to San Francisco, where he will assume command of the revenue cut- | ter Rush. Captain Kilgore’s home is at Sag Harbor, New York, but he was, stationed at San Diego for a long time and has a great love for California. ! After he had partaken of ripe olives and raisins at the San Diego booth, Wwhich brought back memories of the delightful * conditions there, he was more anxious than ever to reach the Golden State. The cool breezes of the | Pacific will be quite a contrast to him | to the heat waves here. ERWIN'S LEOTURES POPULAR. | | J. W. Erwin's lectures in the San | Francisco building have proved so suc- cessful that he has consented to deliver | ’a series in the evening at the Cali- | fornia building. The few he has al- ready given at the latter place have been well attended. D. M. Delmas, Judge Coffey, Edward | Coffey, M. F. Tarpey, Arthur Tarpey, | Al McCabe and George Cleary, San| Franciscans, and all left over from the | Democratic convention, have been | among the energetic fair visitors. | | They covered a great deal of the ex- ! i | 1 | | | position in a short time and got a look | | at most of its wonders. | E Marion de Vries, formerly Congress- | | man from the Second District of Cali- | | fornia, but now a United States Gen- | eral Appraiser, spent one day in St.| Louis during the week trying customs | cases. He was given a hearty wel- | come by the Californians here, as his| popularity never wanes. He will pay the exposition a more extended visit in| September. i ol PR | | CALIFORNIANS AT THE FAIR.

D.| Friends of Deposed Commissioner Gen- eral of France to St. Louis Fair File Strong Protests, PARIS, July 18.—The removal of | Michael Lagrave from the commis- sioner generalship of France to the St. Louis Exposition and the appointment of Alfred Pickard, formerly commis- sioner general of the Paris Exposition, to succeed him, has brought out strong protest from influential quarters. Bussiere, deputy leader of Premier Coombes’ majority in the Chamber of Deputies, has writen an energetic pro- test to Combes, asserting that the re- moval conflicts with the assurances the Premier gave the Chamber, and has notified him that he will bring up the question later, Mascurand, president | of the leading organization of the ma- jority, has written to the Minister of Commerce protesting against Lagrave's removal. He says the latter’'s efforts alone secured a worthy French repre- sentation at St. Louis. M. Dupont, president of the French section of the St. Louis Exposition, has written to Combes expressing the protest of 7500 French exhibitors against the removal of Lagrave. The letter asserts that Combes has sacri- ficed Lagrave through personal ani- mosity. 2 JULY 24 There Will Begin in The Sunday Call Magazine A new series of the famous Mr. Dooley articles. .

Some incipient fights occurred between the strikers and those who attempted to work. The Mayor is again endeavoring to arbi- trate. Many non-union men are at work at the wharves, which are giarded by the police. Several non-union work- men were attacked by the unionists in the streets to-day and twenty of the latter were arrested. President Palma to-day summoned | the representatives of the principal steamship lines and expressed to them his hope that, iIf not incompatible with the general business interests, a con- ciliatery attitude be adopted toward the strikers. The steamship men re- plied that they were willing to con- oede the question as to wages, but not the recognition of the union. A sympathetic strike of every union is being urged by the strikers.
