Question.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2S.-The board Of
supervisors at a special meeting yesterday
rescinded the resolution passed at theiI
last meeting, endorsing the action of the
board of health in condemning China
town. The resolution of Endorsement to
the committee of health and police to in
quire into the best methods of carrying out
the measure, and the resembling of the reso-
luton, was based on the ground that no re-
port had been received from the commit
tee.
A communication was received from the
mayor objecting to the recent order in
creasing the police force, holding that it
was unnecessary. Referred to the com
mitteee on health and police.
The resembling of the resolution endors-
ing the action of the board of health will
not necessarily affect action on the con-
demnation of Chinatown, and the board of
health has full power in the premises.
L. j. Cannon. chairman of the committee
of unemployed, who has been prominent
in calling upon employers of the Chinese,
asking the substitution of white men.
speaking on the sand lots and generally
heading movements of unemployed, was

ing him with the use of incendiary Ian
guage at the sand lots day before yesterday

SPECIAL NOTICES.


Fees of Doctors.
The fee of doctors is an item that very many
persons are interested in just at present. We
believe the schedule for visits is s., which
would tax Il man confined to his bed for q year
and in need of daily visit, over $1,000 year
for medical attendance alone! And one single
bottle of Hop Bitters taken in time would save
the 81, 600 and all the years sickness.-Ed.

Antique Furniture

At Henry VOLTS furniture warerooms,
East King street, nearly opposite the court
house, may be seen some antique furniture
not less than $50 years old. The lot con.
Sists of a sofa and about twenty chairs,
all of solid mahogany upholstered in black
hair cloth. The furniture belonged to the
estate OF the late Hon. G. Daw.
son Coleman, and had been in the
Coleman family nearly century
and half. 1t is ofvery peculiar design,
elaborately carved and very substantial
Eight of the chairs are of unique pattern
and it is said there are none others like
them in the United States except three,
now in Independence hall. The sofa is
fearfully and wonderfully made, with i'm
mensely high back and arms, broad seat
and no springs. This old furniture was
brought to Mr.. VOLTS by Colin Cameron,
agent of the Coleman estate, to be newly
upholstered. 1t is valued very highly.

sHOOTING AFFRAY.
Rob Gilmore severely wounds,

Bob Gilmore Severely Wounded.
Tuesday night, between nine and ten
O'Clock A. Campbell and Bob Gilmore
had difficulty, which came near prov
ing fatal to the latter. The trouble orig
mated i'll John Campbell's saloon where
they quarreled for some time, and after
wards met in Mr.. Bakers saloon where
they again engaged in an angry dispute.
Returning thence TO Campbell's saloon
they met again at the time above
spoken of, drew their revolvers and
began indiscrimiaate shooting. Several
but the audience considered themselves
dismissed and left in less time than we
can write it, Five or six shots were
fired, one taking effect in Campbell's
hand and another striking Gilmore in
the temple ut the corner of the eye, pass
ed through the side of his head and out
behind the ear. Had the ball struck
one-eighth of an inch closer To the eye it
would have taken an inward course
and the result would have been almost
instant death. Ihe shooting seems to
have been deliberate and premeditated,
as neither party was thought to he intoX-
icated. Gilmore Is well known in this
vicinity and throughout the west as a
sport, spending much of his time in
haunts of vice. Campbell has lived in
this vicinity some time past, clerking in
various saloons Roth nartieS are unler
arrest.
The parties were taken before Judge
Bachelor Wednesday upon the charge
of discharging fire arms in the city limits,
and pleading guilty were fined twenty dol
lars each and costs amounting to $3.50
In default of payment, they were COM
mitted to Jail, and will, we understand,
be prosecuted for felony by the county
attorney

EmpOrIa Atheneum.-A Fair Propose
For Its Denetit

H.lnDOEh AIneneum.-A Falr proposed
For Its benefit
This institution, whose doors have
been open to the public less than month,
has demonstrated that the fact that it was
needed and is now appreciated. 1t Is
not known TO majority of our citizens,
yet an average of sixty persons day
come and make use of the reading room
Over eight hundred persons visited it
during the last two weeks. No extra eff
forts have been made to raise funds for
carrying ON this noble enterprise, yet the
amount of money expended has been tri-
fling. There are no useless appendages
connected with it, and every dollar has
been made to count. All we ask now is
that every person interested in the wei
fare of EmpOria and wishing to see
her noted for her good works,
win come and see for themselves
the institution that bears the above
name. Through the kindness of the ed
itors of the newspapers and ministers of
Emporia we have been able to supply
our reading room with greater variety
of reading than can be found in any
reading room in the state. The leading
papers aud periodicals of the country
are always on hand, fresh and free. AS
nothing yet has been done TO raise mon
ey outside of the regular subscriptions
IL Is thought best to hold fair for the
purpose Of replenishing the library,
which is in a very depleted state. The
time fixed for this fair is st. Valentines
day, and it is the earnest desire of all the
friends # the Atheneum that our people
will all come forward and patronize il
with a will that will do US all credit.
More will be said about this enterprise
in the near future.
