Bain Saves Arizona Ranges. TUCSON, Ariz., July 22.— Good rains are reported throughout the Southern Arizona counties. The rains have come just in time to prevent enormous losses to cattle men. . . GRASS VALLEY, July 22.-After five weeks of hard work, Joseph and Robert Gassaway, residing near this city, have been rewarded by striking a rich pocket In a mine they were exploring on their ranch. They met with indifferent success until they unearthed this bright bunch of yel low nuggets, worth more thin $7000. The find was made at Dead Man's Flat, a dis trict noted for its pockets in early days, ¦but little worked now. Find a Pocket of Nuggets. COLUSA, July . 22.— Sheriff Sherer and District Attorney I. G. Zumwalt are mak ing a thorough search for the lone high wayman who held up the Bartlett Springs stage on the Brim grade west of Williams on Sunday evening and robbed the pas sengers of about $200. As the robbery occurred in a rough country the trail is very hard to follow. The Sheriff, how ever, came upon a fresh camp fire and found where the robber had burned his barley sack mask and several of the purses he had taken. On the Stage-Robber's Trail. MARYSVILLE, July 22.— The building of four immense restraining barriers across Yuba River, ten miles above Marysvil!e, is not the enly large under taking in this section which the California Debris Commission is looking after. It is now proposed to straighten the channel of the Yuba River, between De Guerre Point, where the final dam is to be thrown across the stream, and Marysville. Nego tiations are under way for the obtaining of rights of way for the Government The grades on both sides are to be made equal and the breaks filled so as to keep the current within well denned limits. To Straighten the Yuba. The motion will be granted. The court -will adjourn out of respect to the memory of Gen eral Barnes until Friday mornintr. Colonel Kowalsky has said that it will be hard to fill his place. His place never will be filled. I think that we realize that there was no one breathing the air of this earth that had Just the qualities of General Barnes. In a courtroom his presence made plain to every one, not only that there was present a great lawyer, but a broad manf His conduct in the trial of cases brought pleasure to his asso ciates, I think to his opponents, and I know to the officers of the court. To young men particularly he was always gracious, he ¦ was always courteous, and it was a very gratifying thing to a young man to find that a laweyr of his standing and a lawyer of his history would deal with the beginner as ne would with a veteran. That applies to the Judges who sit upon the benches of this court as well as to the young lawyers who practice at its bar No one, I think, who observed him much; no one who came into contact with him. but must feel now that something: has been taken away which can never be regained.- It Is my regret, gentlemen of the bar, that I cannot voice the sentiments I feel on the death of General Barnes. I did not have the advantage and pleasure of 'an intimate friend ship with him, but I know that it will be one of my most lasting and pleasing recollections that from boyhood 1 had the opportunity many times of listening to him, of watching his con duct in the trial of causes,, and more than all else, of having had the privilege of presiding over a court in which he apppeared. Judge Murasky made the following ro sponse to Colonel Kowalsky's speech: COURT PAYS RESPECT. I can only add to the common sentiment of the community: "God rest his soul." acter that restored him back with not a single thread of past affection broken, for he always proffered the hand that recemented the friend ship.

Most of the day was taken up in trolley rides to Steilacoom, Spanaway and Point Defiance.

In 1899 he died and at the time for the distribution of the estate the first wife put in a claim for the property. Judge Buckles has sufstained her claim on the ground that the Ohio divorce was illegal in that the first wife was not sued under her proper name. SUISUN, July 22.— Judge Buckles has rendered a decision in the probate of the estate of Charles Smith and has ordered the estate distributed to the first wife of the deceased, Hester A. Smith, who 13 now a resident. of New York. Smith mar ried her in Canada in 1855 and four chil dren were born of the union.

HAKFORD, July 22.— Charles H. Shinn, the Southern Pacific agent at Hills, a email station twelve miles west cf Han ford, was burned to death at 1 o'clcck this morning in a fire that destroyed the depot and all its contents. The depot was in an isolated place and no one • was near when the blaze occurred. After the structure had gone up in smoke the ruins were searched and the charred bones of the unfortunate agent found at the spot where his bed had stood. Shinn was last seen at II o'clock last night, when he was under the influence of liquor. It is believed he went to sleep while smoking in bed and set his couch on fire. Shinn arrived in Lillis -ten davs ago from San Francisco to take the place of A. A. Leonard, the regular station agent, who was then ill and who died yesterday. The former agent's body had been taken from the depot only two hours before the fire that cost Shinn his life occurred. Special Dispatch to The Call.

The appointment of delegates is as follows: Twenty-eighth Dlst..l6 Thirty-seventh Dist. 9 Twenty-ninth Dist.. 19 Thirty-eighth Dist.. 8 Thirtieth Dist 20 Thirty-ninth Dist... 7 Thirty-first Dist 20 Fortieth Dist 7 Thirty-seeond Dist.. 10 Forty-first Dist » Thirty-third Dist 13 Forty-second Diet... 10 Thirty-fourth Dist.. .12 Forty-third Dist 9 Thirty-fifth Distt...ll Forty-fourth Dist 11 Thirty-sixth D!st...l5 Forty-fifth Dist 13 The executive committee of the gov erning body of the Union Labor party issued a call last night for a district con vention to nominate Representatives in Congress from the Fourth - and -Fifth Congressional districts respectively, and also to nominate a member of the State Board of Equalization from the First District, and a member of the State Board of Railroad Commissioners from the Second -District • LABOR PARTY CONVENTION. The Union Labor voters of the Twenty eighth District will meet to-night at Gam brinus Hall. 14 Third street. In the Thirty-second District a meeting will be held this evening at Maennerbund Hall Twenty-fourth street and Potrero ave nue. On Thursday night club organiza tion will be effected in the Thirty-fourth, Thirty-filth and Forty-first district. Next Friday evening the Thirty-eighth District will be organized. The executive committee of the Union Labor party held a meeting last night at the newly. opened headquarters of the or ganization, ' 41 Third street, and decided to organize clubs in every Assembly dis trict in San Francisco and to select dele gates to be voted for at the primary election on August 12. Oftlcers i and chairmen of district clubs of the Republican Mutual Alliance have been called to meet at headquarters at 12:30 p. m. to-morrow for the purpose of attending in a body the funeral of the late General W. H. L. Barnes. Reports sent to the interior that Gage is strong in the city are simply devices to keep the push in the country .districts in line. The worklngmen in the city are asking: "Why did Governor Gage, who pretends to be a friend of American labor, parole a Chinese cook out of the< peni tentiary and employ the paroled China man to work in his own home?" Gage is still debating in his own mind whether it is better to explain or say nothing. Mayor Schmitz and Governor Gage will attend the banquet to be given by the trades unions of San Francisco to the executive council of the American Feder ation of Labor. The banquet will take place at Eintracht Hall, next Saturday evening. The Governor yesterday ap pointed John J. Quinn and Carmen D. Eradford of San Francisco notaries pub lic vice E. H. Short and H. S. Foote, re signed. ; GAGE NOT STRONG IN CITY. The manipulators of the machine are at last convinced that Gage cannot get the. nomination for Governor. The man agers of Gage's campaign have practically thrown up their hands and the secret topic, of discussion in the boss council relates to the disposition of the Gover nor's transferable delegates. The elim ination from the Gage column of Ala meda, with seventy-one yoteaj-and Santa Clara, with thirty-seven, upsets the cal culations of the machine. If Gage's alli ance with the Democrats should enable him to capture the entire : Los Angeles County t delegation and . 100 delegates in . San Francisco — the num ber • claimed' by the machine— he would still be 219 votes short of the number required to nominate. Allowing, him eight in Kern and five in Kings, he •would then be 206 short of the requisite number. The present indications are that he will be third or fourth In the race and will never be able to muster . sufficient strength to place him' second in the con test. There is nothing to justify the ma chine boast that Gage can win a majority of the San Francisco delegation. He is so weak and unpopular in the city that the bosses are afraid to put up a straight-out Gage ticket in any district. The bosses by adroit combination and fusion with the Democrats may win a few Gage votes under cover of independent unpledged tickets, but 20 per cent of the delegates is a liberal estimate of what he can ob tain.

We had been asso ciated in many cases. I knew his worth. I knew him as few men know each other. , He ¦was a man of great Impulse and of great heart. He loved with stromr and manly love, and if he quarreled with a friend, It was only for a moment. He ' showed a graclousness of char- TRUE TO HIS FRIENDS. California has produced great men, equal to the greatest on earth in the profession of the law: The galaxy'of 'names that lights up the firmament of legal life of this State Is nu merous. We recall with splendid applause the name qf Felton; we recall the name of McAl lister; we honor the great name of Colonel Baker. We give place at the side of these Il lustrious men, with full honor and with full Justice to our friend. General Barnes, who was their companion and lived contemporaneously with them. He was associated with them and against them. Great legal battles have been fought in California, and not one of them of any great importance found itself presented at the bar of Justice unless General Barnes repre sented either one side or the other. In his early youth he volunteered to serve for the honor of his country. He came to California at tne close of the war and made this his home. He was as loyal to California as though he had been born on the soil. He loved California and he lived here and gave to us his brilliant life. He gave to us much that will live as example to the young lawyer and to the citizen. It will be hard to fill his place. It will be a long time before this bar will again hear the matchless eloquence that the gifted General Barnes was wont tp give us. His geniality, his personality his general manhood, was affable and 'agreeable' and though he lived many years his life was Btill young because his mind was ever brilliant Words rolled from his mouth like beautiful pearls. He was eloquent beyond the ordinary even the gifted man. The sentiments he ex pressed were worthy to live, using his own ex pression, until time itself grows old with age. And now, your Honor, he has but paid that debt to nature that we will all pay in due time. When the summons goes forth there is no writ that will stay It. He has been sum moned before that Judge of Judges who makes no mistakes and from whose will and decree there Is no appeal. WAS A GREAT LAWYER. If it pleases the court, the motion which I have made woulc'. be hollow if it were not sup plemented by a ltw remarks that must neces sarily indicate to this community and to the world at large that California has sustained a great loss, that our bar has met with an equally great loss. The profession throughout the entire length and breadth of the land has lost one of its brightest stars. General Barnes was a great man and a great lawyer. He was that when we were children at school. He has been that all through our lives. No man that has lived In this splendid State has been more famed for his intellect, his ability, his eloquence or his patriotism, and more and above all. his great ability as a lawyer. If it pleases your Honor, it is my sad duty to announce to this court the death of General W. H. L. Barnei, an honored member of this bar. and to move this Honorable Court that when It adjourns It do so out of respect to the memory of our lamented friend and brother lawyer, and that this motion be noted in the minutes and spread upon the records of the court. In Judge Murasky's court yesterday morning Colonel H. I. Kowalsky made an eloquent address in tribute to the memory of the late General Barnes, who he declared had won the right to be classed in the galaxy of famous law yers produced by this State. He spoke as follows: TRIBUTE TO DECEASED. General R. H. Warfield, who has charge of the funeral arrangements, has been seriously inconvenienced by not being able to secure carriages. The Hackmen's Union intends to hold a picnic to-mor row, and it has refused to allow any of the members of the union to attend a funeral on that day. General Warfleld was notified last night that the union would not permit the livery sta bles to provide any carriages, and that if the livery stable owners force their hack drivers to attend the funeral, all their stablemen and other employes will be called out on Friday. Because of his inability to secure hacks and carriages from the livery stabler, General Warfleld requests that private individuals who can afford to do so cio nate the use of their hacks and carriages for the funeral. Those who have con veyances that can be used are requested to communicate with General Warfield at the California Hotel as soon as possible. The funeral services at Masonic Tem ple will be under the auspices of Com mandery No. 1, Knights Templars. In the absence of Eminent Commander Gus tave H. Umbsen, who is in Europe, the vice commander will conduct the ser vices for the dead. He will be assisted by Bishop Moreland of the Episcopal church at Sacramento. IV.

The room in the California Hotel where the remains have been laid out has been filled with beautiful floral offerings. The Bohemian Club sent a pall of fragrant blossoms that completely covered the casket. Expressions, of sincere sorrow were heard in all parts of the city yesterday over the death of General William H. L. Barnes. The members of the legal pro fession, and especially the older attor neys, who had been associated with him before the courts of the city and State for many years, felt his loss most deeply. In many of the courts during the morn ing sessions attorneys delivered short ad dresses extolling the many noble traits of the eloquent attorney who had been sum moned to his last rest. When the courts adjourned they did so out of respe.ct to his memory. Charred Bones of an Employe Are Found in the Ruins. Sincere Sorrow Expressed Over Death of Eloquent Attorney.
