Promptly at 8 2. m. the Blues started out and, after a long, tiresome march of eight miles, during which they were permitted to =top freguently, to refresh themselves under the shade of friendly spreading oaks, they arrived at their objective point and succeeded in dis- Jodging the enemy.

The dropping out was entirely due to the heat and the desire of the men to preclude pros- tration in the march by returning to cemp before they had to be carried | | there. | | MAJOR HAVEN LUCKY. | Major C.

The major made a leap out of the falling mass and escaped without injury.

HONOLULU, Aug. 6.—Under the | ! store. direction of the Territorial Board of Agriculture and Forestry about a thousand crates of California fruit which arrived here on the Sonoma were refused a landing and were de- stroyed, as it was found that they were Infected with an Injurious worm. Many California peaches are being kept out on this account. The board also keeps out Samoan lmes and a careful guard is being maintained on all shipments of fruits or plants, as it is known that some injurious diseases have been brought here by such ship- ments in the past.

RRESIRE - Seleis Spectal Dispatch to The Call, CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo., Aug. 20.— Intense excitement prevails in Cripple Creek. A mob is in control of the town and wholesale deportations were begun this evening. Prominent men not in entire sympathy with the citizens’ movement have been run out of the district. Armed men on horseback are | now making a round-up of the district. | Among those deported are: Former Attorney General Eugene E. Engly, Frank J. Hangs, attorney for the West- ern Federation of Miners; J. W. Hig- the Cripple Creek Carpenters’ Union and Republi- can candidate for Alderman in the| | Fourth Ward in the last city election; H. M. N. Heimerdinger, one of the principal owners of the Interstate Mer- cantile Company of Butte, Mont.; J.| Hall, heavy stockholder in the In- te Mercantile Company of Butte, | .; J. C. Cole, former Deputy Dis- w. state Mercantile | employed by she Inter Company. ~ These men were corralled at various| | points in Cripple eek, beginning at| 5 o’clock, and at 6;30 o'clock, when all! ™ had been herded together, they were started over the hills west of town and marched toward Floissant under a heavy armed guard. Just as the miners were going on shift at 6 o’clock they were stopped and formed into a crowd which marched through the streets, gathering known union men and sympathizers together practically as prisoners. The first to be taken was Engly. Next the crowd picked up Cole and Hangs, attorneys for the Western Fed- eration of Miners. It then marched to the union store and took John W. Hall, the manager, from the place. The crowd then gathered in front of the Courthouse and wWaited there for other union men to be apprehended. The expressed design of the mob was to hold the union men together and march them over the hills and out of the district. The claim was made that a conspiracy had been discovered to commit and that the prompt deporta men would pre- vent further bloods TUnder a guard of 2000 men the pris- oners were escorted to a point on the old Canyon City stage road three miles from the cit The spokesman stepped forward and said: “You men are not wanted in this} camp. You are not going to be allowed to live here. You do not seem to be happy unless you can stir up trouble. We have had trouble enough. You are going on and you are not coming back. If you do there will be either a bullet or a rope for every one of you. Now, go and keep going.” Up to this time there had been no abuse, but as the men started down the road a yell went up and the crowd indulged in threats and jeers, J. W. Higglns suddenly wheeled upon the crowd and drew a revolver. He was promptly struck on the head with a revolver by one of the crowd and his BOHEMIANS CREMATE CARE WITH CEREMONIOUS REVELRY feathered owls of for presentation who also designed the costumes. setting of the stage was in the artistic care of George E.

GUERNEVILLE, Aug. 20. — The Bohemian Grove hooted to-night at the nimble wit of a flock of talking and singing city owls, who annually gather on the banks of the Russian River and for a season, brief but joyous, forget the troubles and worries of the work-a-day world. The bird owls hooted because they were owls and not because of any lack in jests and quips that the the guality of the ily upset domestic ocratic The ¢ peace justed becaus 3 midsummer jJinks, the night set apart for the cremation of care. The Bohemian Club's midsummer jinks of 1904 passed into history will entitle the historic annals of one of the worid's most interesting clubs. Will Trwin, whose wrote the high jinks play, “The Hamadryads, a Masque of Apollo,” is in New York and the pro- duction was sired by Dr. J. Wilson Shiels, chairman of the jinks commit- tee. The music was composed by W. J.

Returning to the city, a part of the crowd made an attack upon the union store. Officers at first repulsed the at- tack, but they were overpowered and about twenty men entered and com- pletely wrecked the stock. The stock cost about $3000. To-day’s outbreak appears to have been planned by the miners and inde- pendent of the Citizens' Alliance. No attempt was made to wreck the union John W. Hall came to Cripple Creek two weeks ago from Butte, Mont., rep- resenting the Inter-State Mercantile Company, which purchased the union of care to celebrate Apollo. the return of Care was cremated with becoming solemnity.
