Fuller, General Secretary of the Association
in this city, returned from the Bay yesterday.
On Sunday meetings were held at San Jose
by Mr.. Fuller and the General Secretaries of
the Associations st the Bay. for the purpose
OF raising funds for organizing an AssOcia-
ton, and placing in charge Of it a General
Secretary. A portion of the amount necss
sary to open the work at that point was SUBJ
scribed, and the balance it is expected will
soon be obtained, an organization effected,
and secretary employed. The meetings
held in connection with this object at that
place on Sunday were largely attended, and
much Interest manifested in the subject pre-
scented.
AN IMPosToR.-A man who is pretending,
in many places where he calls. to be mute,
and at other places other lodges for awaken
ing sympathy are resorted to, is canvassing
the city and soliciting funds. His general
method is the mute dodge, but speaking in
half audible manuer-a few words some.
timSss IN UafDaa, sometimes in English and
AZ other 10 Latin, and in connection with such
expressions, presents a small book. in which
the names of donors are entered with small
amounts bestowed. Yesterday he called at
house in the upper part Of the city, and was
met by well-educated gentleman, who dis
trusted his inability to speak, and who ap-
piled rather severe tests as to his power of
utterance, which excited the anger of the
mute" and he proceeded at once in most
fluent English language to dsnounce in I'M
sparing terms his hard-hearted questioner.
He is man Of about 30 years of age, and is
an impostor, against whose wiles Sacrament
ans should not fail to give deserved cold
shoulder.

of the Board of Supervisors yesterday, plans
