FRESNO'S BIG CANAL
The Contest Over Its
Construction Now
Settled.
WORK OF SUPERVISORS.
They Elect a Director Who Is
in Favor of Building
the Ditch.
A LARGE DISTRICT INVOLVED.
Two Million Dollar's Worth of Bonds
Authorized for the En
terprise.
FRESNO, Cal., July 9.— The contest be
tween the residents in the Sunset Irriga
tion District,, who are in favor of building
the $1,500,000 canal, and those who charge
corruption and extravagance, was ended,
as far as is now known, this afternoon.
The matter was carried to the Board of
Supervisors of Fresno County, who some
time apo removed Colin Campbell, director
of the Fifth District, becauce he was not a
resident of the district, and consequently
could not serve. This left four directors,
two of whom were in favor of pushing the
work of constructing the great canal.wbile
the other two opposed ir.
P. Y. Baker and T. L. Reed, who were
awarded the contract for building the canal,
have been endeavoring to secure the ap
pointment of R. W. I'emberton, who was
also supported by ali who are in favor of
completing the work. The other candi
date was Colin Campbell. By a vote of
four to one the Board of Supervisors elected
Pemberton.
The district embraces over 360.000 acres,
and recently voted bonds of $2,000,000.
At the la*st meeting of the board of
directors the contract with Baker <fc Reed
was rescinded, but this action will prob
ably be reconsidered and work resumed at
once. The money is now read}-.
RAISIS-OROHERS COMBISE.
They Propose to Co-operate to Secure Bet-
tcr Prices for Their Hops.
FRESNO, Cal., July 9.— At a mass
meeting of the Kingsburg raisin-growers a
new method for marketing the crop was
proposed. It is generally believed here
that the reason for low prices prevailing
for raisins is the competition among
brokers, who glut the Eastern market.
The raisin-growers will make a deter
mined effort this year to gain control of
the marketing in the hope that the busi
ness, which is the largest in the county,
but which is now carried on at a loss, may
be made to return a profit to the growers.
Those who have proposed the new plan
are well-known growers. It is suggested
in the address to the raisin men that only
one firm of brokers be allowed to handle
the raisins shipped to any one city and
that such a firm be required* to handle the
consignment from any packing company.
The Association of Raisin-growers is to be
notified at short intervals of the state of
the market in each city a»d advised by
their agents when to sell. No goods ex
cept, those sent by the association are to be
handled by the agents, nor must members
of the association, ship to other than the
agents of the combine.
Raisins are to be packed nnder the
special brand of the grower and are to be
strictly graded, but the price of one grade
is not to be equalized with another, and
the returns for raisins from different
districts are to be kept separate. One
representative from each district is to
have a place on the board of directors.
The Kingsburg growers ask all raisin
men in the county to hold meetings and
unite with them in" completing the organi
zation.

The Man Shot fry Charles Brotcn Cannot
lie Found.
FRESNO. Cal., July 9.— The trial of
Charles Brown on the charge of assault to
murder Harry Thuson has been begun in
the Superior Court. The complaining
witness quietly left town as soon as he
recovered from the effects of the bullet
wounds, and the ofticers have not been
able to find him. It is believed that
Brown, who has considerable money, lias
Eersuaded Thuson to hide. The case will

A Persistent Burglar.
FRESNO, Cal., July 9.— Alberto Rani
erez was taken to Folsom to-day to begin a
term of ten years for burglary. Just a
month ago he completed a term of two
years on a conviction for burglary in San
Diego.
GOES TO A HIGHER COURT
The Government to Take an
Appeal in the Stanford
Case.
Special Attorney McKlsslck's Rec
ommendation Sanctioned at
Washington.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 9.-Attor
ney-General Harmon to-day telegraphed
to Special Assistant District Attorney Mc-
Kissick at San Francesco to use his dis
cretion in taking an appeal in the Stanford
case on amending the original bill, as he
in his judgment might deem proper.
• When seen yesterday afternoon ex-
Judge McKisick said: "I propose to stand
on tne original bill and not amend it.
When the formal decree of Judge Ross is
filed I will enter the usual petition in the
United States Circuit Court to have an
appeal to the Court of Appeals granted. A
citation will be issued Mrs. Stanford and
the case will be reargued.
"Unfortunately the Court of Appeals is
about to adjourn, but we may be able to
get enough of the Judges to hold a special
session, and in that event we ought to get
a decision by August or September. In
that event, if the decision is against me, I
will have time to get the case to the United
States Supreme Court for the October ses
sion and if it is in favor of the Govern
ment why we can go right on and try the
case."
MARE IS LA Mi IMPROVEMENTS.
Commodore Matthews Urges the Enlarge-
ntfnt of thr Stone Dock.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 9.—Com
modore Matthews, Chief of the Bureau of
Yards and Docks of the Navy Department,
has received rejx>rts of progress made on
the repairs to the stone dock at Mare
Island. He says the dock will be made to
accommodate vessels as large as the lowa,
but that it should be made larger still, or
sufficiently large to accommodate the larg
est ships now building or to be built in the
future. It should be 700 feet long. U» wide
and .50 feet deep. The Puget Sound Dock
will be completed this fall, hut notwith
standing, the Mare Island Dock should be
greatly enlarged, he says
The Hartford is now In dock, and when
she comes out the Philadelphia will go in,
after which new caisson will be built at the
entrance and this will necessitate the con
struction of a cofferdam there.

She Made Twenty Knots With Ease
• Cnrfer -\atural Draught.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 9.-Reports
of the final trial of the Olympia, which
reached the Navy Department to-day,
show that the vessel maintained a speed of
nearly twenty knots in Santa Barbara
Channel for four hours under natural
draught, which is greater than expected.
The vessel was not forced in any way,
accomplishing twenty knots with the
greatest ease. The vessel was heavily
loaded, being 900 tons displacement greater
than on her contractor's trial. The Olym
pia is now at San Francisco recruiting men
for a three years' cruise. As soon as her
complement of marines is full she will go
to Mare Island Navy-yard for two weeks
and then proceed to China to replace the
Baltimore as tlagship.
PL ASS IOR XMW BATTLE-SHIPS.
A Matter That Is Causing Secretary Her-
Bert Much Annoyance.
WASHINGTON", P. C, July 9.—Secre
tary Herbert is still wrestling with designs
: for the new battle-ships, torpedo-boats and
I gunboats. The difference of opinion as to
the best design of battle-ships is giving him
I much annoyance.
The naval bureau chiefs object to the
naval constructor's plans, and Secretary
Herbert has invited the chiefs into a con
ference. Each will give his opinion to the
Secretary and the latter will then decide
upon a plan. "When this, and some other
important matters are settled, Secretary
Herbert will take his annual vacation.

Lieutenant O'Brien's relations with .Tap

WASHINGTON, D. C. July 9.—Secre
tary Herbert this morning issued an order

Civil Engineer Memocal to the New York
Navy-yard in place of Constructor Fernald
ana Civil Engineer Asserson, who will go

took place under Fernald and Asserson.
MANY MILES ON A WHEEL.
Merton Duxbury Travels on a Bike
From Providence to San Fran
cisro.
Merton Duxbury arrived in the City last
evening after crossing the continent from
! Providence, R. 1., on a bicycle. Mr. Dux
bury has been traveling for pleasure, but
! expects to make a record back from here
to New York. He had a varied experience
j on the trip, crossing two deserts, riding over
■ rough railroad beds, sleeping in Italian
' and Chinese camps, at one time living in
the lap of luxury, and at another subsist
j intr on the commonest of fares.
From Kansas City he wheeled across the
plains, going (>SO miles in six and a half
days. The water was full of alkali and the
food was but little better. In Denver he
met Mr. and Mrs. Mcllrath, who are
wheeling around the world for the Chicago
Inter Ocean. He rode with them across
the desert from Grand Junction to Salt
Lake City, a distance of nearly 300 miles.
The tourists slept on bare floors with noth
ing under their heads, and the food along
the route was poor and scanty. From Og
den to Keno, Duxbury rode on the railroad
track, and came to Oakland by the wagon
roads. He remains here until the 25th
inst., when he starts back for New York,
taking the shortest route.

FISHING AT CAPITOLA
Captains Walker and Plummer
Make Good Sport With
Rod and Reel.
They Capture a Salmon Which
Weighs More Than an Ordinary
Sack of Flour.
8. W. Watrous writes to The Call that
Capitola is still on top with the largest
salmon of the season. In proof of this
assertion Mr. Watrous incloses a photo
graph showing Captain T. C. Walker and
Captain H. F. Piummer. who are described
by Mr. Watrous as "the two proudest men
in California," with their fifty-three
pound salmon between them. The fish
was caught near Capuola on the Fourth of
Juiv and it took both of these redoubtable
i seafaring gentlemen to take the bie
. fellow into the boat. The salmon was
game to tne last moment and it was only
after a hard fight that he was conquered.
It required skillful manipulation to bring
him to land. In order to illustrate just
how much of a sea monster they had
! captured, Captains Walker and Plummer
j had him photographed alongside of a
fourteen-pound salmon, |which most
people would consider a good-sized fish
i without waiting to look for a salmon that
! weigh* more than an ordinary Back of
flour.

Selling Platers Furnished Sport
Over the Sprinting Dis
tances.
TWO FIRST CHOICES WON.
Boreas Galloped Over His Field,
Showing Himself a Colt of
Some Caltber.
Chevalier was in front again yesterday with
fou» winners. The colored lad is in great form
at present, his ride on Greenback Jr. being an
especially good piece of jockeyship.
Phil Archibald's name was missed yesterday
from the list of pencilers that cut in. Jack
Atkins took his place, which completed the
solid eight.
Queen, a promising two-year-old chestnut
sister to Mainstay, in the string of Frank Van
Ness, was destroyed at the track on Monday.
Some time ago the filly was injured in a race,
which, added to additional infirmities, left her
in such a state that it was deemed bc&t to end
the youngster's suffering with a kindly bullet.
Both Gonzales Maid and Swiftsure were sup
posed "good things" In the race In which they
started. The former vat backed down from 25
to 10 to 1, but the betting against the latter
horse was of the shifting order. Opening at 12
to 1 the odds against him were cut to 3 to 1,
when they again went back to the original
opening price around post time.
While being taken from his stabling quarters
to the paddock previous to the third race in
which he was a starter, the gelding Rico was
struck by a Geary-street ear and severely in
jured, one of his hind legs being badly cut in
the region of the hock joint. According to on
lookers the accident could have been averted
had the gripman exercised due diligence. The
horse was withdrawn from the race, and his
trainer, Frank Taylor, fears the racer to be per
manently ruined.
Owners that are not fortunate enough to
be the possessors of crackajacks had a day
yesterday at the track. The card was
made up of al! sprinting dashes, and the
starters, with one exception, were a most
ordinary lot. As in all races where a cheap
class of horses come together, picking win
ners was difficult, the pencilers having a
big percentage the best of it.
Notwithstanding the several "bottled
up" good things that were cut loose, two
of the public favorites managed 10 win.
The one long shot of the day to win was
Solitario. who took the opening race, a
five-furlong dash, in a drive from Auteuil,
going to the post 10 to 1. Steadfast was
third, while the 11 to 5 favorite, Lee Stan
ley, and Tyrena, a 5 to 1 chance, weie
fighting it out for fourth place, a head
further oaufc.
Every entry in the second race on the
card, a sprinting affair of rive and a half
furlongs, received more or less backing.
At post time Beraphin was a slight favor
ite at 16 to 5, with little choice in the odds
against Major Cook, City Girl or Bernardo.
The favorite headed the bunch well into
the stretch, where she was passed by Major
Cook and Bernardo, who fought the issue
out. By good riding Hinriehs pot Ber
nardo's nose in front as the two horses
passed the iinishing mark. SerapLin ended
up third.
Bookmaker George Rose's very shifty
performer, Boreas, again showed himself
to be a horse of some quality by running
the third race off the reel, finishing the six
furlongs in 1:1554 with something to spare.
He went to the post a3to 5 favorite. Rose
Clark, the 9 to 1 outsider, downed the
second choioe, Road Runner, handily for
the place.
The fourth event, another five-furlong
spin, proved a mere pipe-opener for the 11
to 10 choice, Johnny Capron, who won in
a jog in l:02<)£. Josie G, the 3to 1 second
choice, took the place by a head from
Mount Carlos.
The last race of the day was another very
uncertain betting proposition for the tal
ent. After considerable shifting about
Amigo finally closed favorite at 2}* to 1.
Sport McAllister, who when he gets tired
gets awful weary, was second choice, with
Dolly M but a shade worse in the betting.
Sport led his field with his usual show of
6p<?ed until a furlong from home, where
Greenback Jr. collared him and be quit,
the : latter winning handily in 1:08%.
Prince DeTine was third behind the Sport.

LATEST CYCLING NEWS.
A Race Mooting to Be Held at
Eureka on July 19
and 20.
A party of prominent local wheelmen
will leave here Friday morning by steamer
for Eureka to race there at the Sequoia
Carnival on July 19 and 20. They are: W.
B. Fawcett, Olympic Club Wheelmen; A.
E. Moody and C. M. Smith, Garden City
Cyclers; F. A. McFarland, San Jose Road
Club, and C. W. Conger, Imperial Cycling
Club. W. A. Burke of the Acme Ciub and
1). E. Whitman of Los Angeles may also
attend.
The races are to be held on a one-mile
horse track, and the events are as follows:
Class A— One mile novice, one-half mile
scratch, one mile handicap, quarter mile
scratch, two mile handicap.
Class B— Two mile handicap, one mile
scratch, one-half mile scratch.
Entries should be sent at once to C. Julius
Janssen, Eureka. The track is very good
and the prizes valuable, so the meet will
undoubtedly be quite successful.
Charles W. Hammer and H. S. Wanzer,
of the Pilot Wheelmen, b'anta Cruz, bare
been in the City the*past few days. They
s"y the few prizes won at their recent race
meet which have not been delivered will
be provided for very soon. The carnival
committee is $r2,000 short, and it may take
some little time to cover this deficit, but
the wheelmen will all get their prizes in
due course and need have no worry on
that score.
It seems likel}' there may be several
race meets in this part of t fie State early
in August. The Garden City Cyclers of
San Joce talk of one by electric light.
They tried this innovation last year, and
it was quite successful. The San Fran
cisco Bicycle Track Association is think
ing of holding a meet at Central Park on
some Saturday afternoon, and Chairman
Kerrigan will call a meeting of the dele
gates from the various clubs to discuss the
matter.
Advices from the East are to the effect
that Arthur A. Zimmerman, the champion
cyclist of the world, will pass through here
en route to Australia in August. He
would be a great attraction, and' the Bay
City Wheelmen may arrange to hold a
race meet at that time to give Californians
an opportunity to see him ride.
A new club has just been organized at
Woodland with a charter membership of
thirty and will be known as the Woodland
Cycling Club. A ladies' annex will be a
prominent feature, and the clv ; j intends to
join the California Associated Cycling
Clubs and individual members will join
the League of American Wheelmen.
Charles S. Wells, the class B crack, will
probably go to Denver in a week, to race
there and at JSalt Lake City.
TO GO A-SWIMMIXG.
There's a red-letter page that is brighter for Its age.
And the finger-marks of Time are never dim
. ming;
It has very much to say of a hot summer day.
When wo fellows ran away, to go a-swimminer.
Creeping through lengthy grass while dancing
gnadowß pass.
Threading deep haunted woods where the squirrel
stows his goods,
And birds nested high teach their little ones to fly.
Where the grape-cluster shines in a wilderness of
vines,
Where are mossy pillows green not aslumberer
hath seen.
And the red flowers grow in a blossom-drift of
snow :
It wag maybe twice as fray that we felt a bit astray,
When we fellows r»n away, to go a-swimming:
And the river and the pool were go heaven-like and
cool, -. ;-;'-:
With fresh baby-breezes overskimming;
Everytlne well contrived for a pleasure short
lived, ,
When we runaways arrived to go a-swimming!
Now all ready— now a plunge! and our bodies like
a sponge
That unduly dry has been, seem to drink the
water in;
We are groping In the caves of the cold, silent
waves, ■ "
We are climbing to the air, flinging torrents from
- our hair. . ■:■ :..;..;. . '.
And we struggle to and fro through the ripples'
"" gentle flow, ," -..'"._ „• .... •>•
And we duels gayly fight with the plashing- waters
bright,
On each other, through the play, flinging barrels
v ful of spray : . . . ■ .
Oh the mad and merry day we went running!
Now the moral of this rhyme Is for youth's careless
time:
Full of pood, sober counsel it Is brimming;
In your labor or your play, your superiors obey,
Don't you ever run away to go a-swlni ruing.
Though the flower-jewels shine with a radiance
divine,
And the daisy-blossoms creep in the meadows half
asleep,
And the clouds are like a high, floating castle In
the sky. -
And the forest, branches dumb wink and be-kon
you to come, ■ ■ ■'. - * ■-.
And a shady nook yon know where the dainty bil
lows flow.
Whose delicious quiet charms would fold you In
their arms,
Be obedient while you may: on the shore of duty
stay; ■ >
Don't yon ever run away to fro a s-swimmlnj?!

The Feminine Imagination.
A down-East dressmaker tells of an ex
acting patron who brought back a dress
because it was too large in the waist and
wanted it refitted. It was left for the pur
pose but before it was touched the lady
sent for it. Thinking her customer was
'•notional," the dressmaker allowed it to
go as it was, saying nothing. The lady
thousht it had been fixed and now com-
Flamed that it was too tight in the waist,
t was left as before, but nothing was done
to it, as the dressmaker had now grown
wise on the subject. It remained a few
days and was again tried by the customer.
This time the fit was perfect and the lady
has since repeatedly declared she never
was so well suited.— Lewiston Journal.
