GILMORE, Staft Correspondent of The Call. CAMP ATASCADERO, Aug. 24— Qovernor Pardee arrived in camp to- he got here, but for a time it looked as | though he was going to be allowed to find his own way out to camp. It was| | thought here that the Governor and party intended getting off the train at | Paso' Robles and Colonel Joselyn, rep- resenting General MacArthur, and Gen- eral Lauck, representing the State mi- litia, took an automobile and went| there. The Governer arrived at Paso | Robles and, seeing no one to meet him and his party, he again boarded the train and proceeded up to Asuncion station. To his amazement there was no one at this point to greet him. In the meantime the train pulled out, leav- ing the gubernatorial party on the lit- | tle temporary platform. Finally the | news of the Governor's predicament reached camp and Captain F. L. Winn | took the signal service corps auto- | mobile and drove full speed for Asun- | cion. After an hour's delay the Go | ernor reached camp. He was accom- | panied by Mrs. Pardee, Colonel | Mrs. E. F. Beck, Lieutenant | Robert Weinecke and Colonel H. T. \ Sime. Lieutenant Colonel F. W. Chap- man came up from Los Angeles and ‘Joinml the par here, 1 | After a short v in camp Mrs. Par- | dee and Colonel and Beck left { Paso Rcbles in an obile. The | Governor and the othe wko are mem- | bers of his staff will remain here over | night. He will leave to-morrow night { at midnight for Long Eeach, returning north early next week. | Problem No. 8, the last of the series | of maneuvers, took place to-day. The troops were under arms shortly after | sunrise. The exercise was called the | passage of a defile. It was full of in- terest and instruction to the troops taking part and of a highly spectacu- lar nature. Hundreds of people who followed the troops for miles were well rewarded for their trouble, for the troops did fine wc all through the day. Very few of the men dropned out. The um- ypires were lavish in their praise of the cellective and indiv: al work of the scldiers. The militia showed great im- provement over their work in the first exercise. The problem of the day consisted of a tion with the intention of attacking an inferior brown force, which was said to be holding the Graves Creek road to the south. The brown force, en- camped at Paradise Sorings, having been informed Ly scouts of the arrival of the blues, moved up to Needle Gorge and attemnted to stop the progress of ‘he blues at that point. Colonel Mark- ley was in command of the blues and Colonel Ward commanded the browns. The blues pushed forward under forced marches. The cavalry and ar- tillery succeeded in gaining a position | commanding the mountains and the blue infantry dashed into the defile. Tn the meantime cannonading was be- ing carried on from the tops of the mountains by the the brown artillery having climbed an adjacent hill. The result so far as the casual observer could note was vic- tory for the browns. What the um- pires may say about it may be an- other matter. General MacArthur and staff will leave for San Francisco on Saturday. A span of spirited horses ran away day and made straight for the big mp. They dashed about at full peed among the hundreds of tents. In hot pursuit of them was a Mexican on a polo pony and one of the colored troopers ¢n a saddleless steed. The chase lasted for half an hour and threw the whole camp into a state of great excitement. The team finally ran into a small tent, and tent, horses and all came down with a crash. an 1 ran toward Colonel Pitcher’s pro- nal headquarters, where the col- ed trooper caught him. Nearly 1000 soldiers took a hand in trying to stop the terrified animals, Following is a roster of the troops in camp here to-night: Division headquarters, 220; First Brigade. 1710; Second Brigade, 1716; divisional cavalry, 331; divisional ar- | tillery, divisional field hospital, 108, and divisicnal signal corps, 118, a total of 4488, as against 4548 on Au-! gust 14. When Governor Pardee was shown | these figures he expressed himself as highly gratified with the splendid showing of | mented them highly for the good work they had done here, reports of which he had received from General MacAr- | thur and other officers. e — INSTITUTE DELEGATES MAKE CHANGES IN LAWS Consolidate Offices of Grand Secretary and Organizer and Provide for an Assistant.

Conaty of Los Angele: the Young Ladies’ Institute and Lloyd | Sterling. The report of the committee on the state of the Institute was presented | and adopted. The report embodies an | approval of the grand president’s rec- | ommendations regarding the support of | | the Institute Journal, the co-operation | with other societies looking to the erec- : tion of a Catholic headquarters in San | Francisco and the rejection of the pro- | posed amendment to hold biennial ses- sions. The remaining hours of the morning session were devoted to a fur- ther consideration of the ritual. During the afternoon session the of- fices of organizer and grand secretary were consolidated. The salary was in- creased and provision made for an as- sistant secretary.

The resolu- | ot e by T. A. Rickard, editor { of the Mining and Engineering Journal, favoring that city as the place of the next convention was adopted this after- noon by unanimous vote.

Resolutions will be reported, includ- ing one requesting Legislatures of the mining States to enact laws requiring mining engineers to pass technical ex- aminations and secure license to prac- tice their profession. A reception was tendered the dele- gates and visitors to-night by the citi- zens of Portland. Late to-night it was announced that proxies held by delegates to the Amer- ican Mining Congress cannot be voted and that delegates not regularly elect- ed members of the congress will not be allowed to vote with the members, thus | preventing cities seeking nent headquarters of the congress from voting large numbers of proxies and delegates sent here for the purpose of swelling their votes in the fight for the greatest gifts in the hands of the con- gress, President Richards has named as | members of the committee to nominate nine members of the board of directors | Thomas Ewing of California, G.

She came here three weeks ago and went to work in a North First street nc tion store.
