PREPARATIONS FOR THEIR ENTER
TAINMENT.
How They Spent the Day Yesterday-Res-
olutions Passed in Honor of General
Chapin-A Warm Eulogy.

There will be meeting of the Native
Sons OF the Golden West and the
pioneers of this city, at Major Horace
Bells Office in the Temple block, this
evening, to complete arrangements for
the reception of the visiting pioneers.
The reception will take place tomorrow.
The excursionists spent yesterday at
Pasadena. In the morning many of
them went to ride in the surrounding
country. In the afternoon the celebra-
ton at Pasadena took place. In the
evening ball was given at the Ray
mond by the people of the hotel. The
whole building was magnifcently dec
grated with flowers, and the affair was
made a memorable event.
The train which carries the excursion
lists is the heaviest vestibuled train that
ever crossed the continent. 1t contained
seven Pullmans, two dining-room cars, a
baggage car and combination car.
At meeting OF the eXcursionists, held
on Friday, the following resolutions
were adopted:
WHEREAS, Death has entered our asso-
citation in the midst of life and hope and
taken away one of our most valued and
beloved members ; and,
WHEREAS, The Great Divide has been
crossed by one whose memory we shall
ever cherish, whose virtues we shall
always esteem therefore,
Res0lred, That in the sudden departure
of General Samuel A Chaplin from this
mortal sphere we have been bereft of
comrade whose presence with us, as
pioneers, at home and upon our eXcur-
sion to the Pacific Slope. or wherever he
has met with us, has always been a de-
light and qualification.
Resolved, That while we bow submis-
sively to the stroke which has severed
our comrade from us and mourn over
loss, we cannot but feel that the
brave soldier, the fearless pathfinder
and pioneer, the noble citizen and friend,
passed away triumphantly, having fin
ished his course; leaving his benedic-
ton with those he died among.
Resolred, That our sincerest sympa-
thies be and are extended to his invalid
wife at home, the devoted son
who accompanied his beloved father
toward the goal of his anticipations, and
the afflicted family whose expectations
so soon to be realized, as they had
fondly hoped, are now so unexpectedly
blighted.
Resolyed That the gratitude of the
Society of California Pioneers of New
| England is due and extended to the
Pioneers of San Bernardino and the
gentle ladies and friends of that city,
whose kindly offices and tender sympa-
| thies were shown in all their manifesto
tions in the hour of our sadness and
! bereavement.

Probably no system of practice ever employed
has been so universally successful as tnat IN

sumption
CATARRH.
Catarrh is often regarded by the patient as
a cold in the head and he often expresses his
astonishment at his remarkable tendency to
contract fresh cold. Indeed he declares that
he is scarcely free from one cold before he
takes another, and he is always exceedingly
careful; it is also matter OF surprise to him
that the cold always seems to settle in the
head and throat.
At times many of the symptoms of catarrh
seem to abate and the patient is led to hope
that the disease is about to wear of; but an
other class of symptoms soon appear and he
learns to his horror, that instead of recovery
from the disease, it is somewhat changed in its
character AND has extended to the throat.
sense of WEAKNESS is sometimes felt in
reading, speaking or singing; hoarseness at
times, occurs, sensation OF dryness is felt in
the throat, or it appears that some foreign
substance, as, for instance, a hair, Obstructed
the throat; there becomes sense of languor
and fatigue; the breath lessons on a little
exertion short hacking cough, peculiar
sound in clearing the throat, feeling as
though there was not room enough in the
chest to breathe; these and other symptoms
occur after the disease has made considerable
progress. Then it is a time when consumption
is about to begin its dreadful work. Up
to this time, the press of the disease may
have been slow and the patient may, in
expressing his confident hope that it will
"wear off," declare that he has had the catarrh
for years and has not seemed to become much
worse, and trusts that he will "by and by"
recover. But this deluson is the grand error
which has peopled our cemeteries with con
sumptive forms, all forms of catarrh end
finally in consumption.
Every case of catarrh is durable when prop
erly treated Eastern visitors and invalids
should avail themselves of the opportunity of
being cured before they return home

to their cases had better call at the Office for an

THE PAPAL GUARD OF HONOR.
A Small Standing Army Within the Vat
lean Always on Duty.

A Small Standing Army Within the Vat
lean Always on Duty.
Visitors to Rome are not usually aware
that the Pope still has a small army of
his own within the walls of the Vatican,
with which the Italian Government does
not interfere. These form what may be
called the Papal Guard of Honor, and
they are, on great ecclesiastical functions
in ST. Peters, always on duty. At pres
ent this is composed of eight gendarmes,
seventy-five Swiss guards. whose pictur-
esque uniforms brighten up the som bre
corridors of the Vatican, and about TWEEN
ty-five noble guardsmen. These latter
are chosen out of those noble families
who still are stanch adherents of the
Pontiff. Besides these there Is troop of
officers who formerly belonged to the
Palatine Guard. which was disbanded in
1870.
The pay of the Switzers and the gend-
armes is small, merely sixpence a day,
but it is sufficient for them. as they are
clothed, lodged and fed comfortably in
what is technically known as the Leonine
City. The noble and Pontifical guards
serve for nothing, as they are all men of
independent means. The Pope's ex-
penditure, however, does not end here, as
ne still pays large sum in pensions to
the officers and men who served in the
Papal army prior to the entry of the
Italian troops, and these are regularly
remirted to them in whatever, part of the
world they are now residing. 1t was the
soldiery of st. Peters which lent such
splendor to the functions in the old times,
but what remains OF 1t still greatly adds
to the dignity and solemnity of the re-
ligious ceremonies which from time to
time take place within the sacred pre-
einctg

ADAMS EXPRESS MEN TO STRIKE.
The Helpers and Clerks to Quit Work
This Evening.


This Evening.
Everything was quiet at the Adams Ex-
press wharf in this city this afternoon.
but it was rather the quiet before storm
than anything else. Although there was
no strike in progress several of the en-
ployes said that the helpers and the clerks
had agreed to go out at six o'clock
this evening. What the effect of this
will have upon the business of the COM
pany it is difficult to ascertain from the
officers as all who appear to be in author
ity refuse to say anything upon the sub
ject of strike actual or supposed.
The trouble has been brewing for some
time and is said to be due to a disposition
upon the part of the company to over
work its employees and to reduce salaries.
1t is said that many of the men are kept
at work from six O'Clock in the morning
that according to the new rules every man
is docked for the time he is away. If any
one takes vacation it is at his own ex-
pense. Salaries have also been reduced
to an extent which the men declare is
outrageous, and several men have been
discharged, making the work Of those
who remain more ardous.
Ever since the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road has obtained an entrance into New
York it is said that the United States Ex-
press Company, which runs over that
route, has been eating into the Adams
Company's business to Philadelphia,
Baltimore. Washington and points west
and southwest. This, however, is denied
by the officers of the Adams Co mpany.

TIRED OF LIFE.
Gustaye Steib Could Not Stand the
Sea Of Adyersity, So He Shot
Himself.

Gustave Steib, a shoemaker, forty years
old, residing at No. 43 Thorn street, at
tempted suicide by shooting himself in
the left breast, yesterday afternoon,
about four o'clock. Stelb was probably
insane when he attempted to end his life.
About year ago his wife died, and a
little after this one of his children sue
cumbed to privati0n and disease. The
double misfortune, combined with the
most distressing poverty, deprived Steib
of his reason, and he was found one night
digging hole on Franklin street with
pasteboard box lying on the ground near
him. He said he was burying his child.
In the box was the dead body. Steib was
taken to the station house. and after food
and medical attention were given him, he
recovered and went back to his bench to
earn bread for his three remaining chill
dren.
Adversely, however, pursued him, work
was scarce, business bad, and things con-
tinued TO grow worse instead of changing
for the better. His poverty deepeneu, his
misery increased and he finally decided
to escape future so discouraging.
tlYesterday afternoon he locked himself
in small bedroom behind his cobbler's
shop. and holding cheap revolver over
his left breast discharged it. He fell back
on the bed unconscious and lay
there an hour. At five O'Clock
his eldest daughter Knocked at the
door and, receiving no response. peeped
through the keyhole, and saw her fathers
body upon the bed. She ran out and
summoned the neighbors, some of whom
broke in the bedroom door, and, perceiv-
ing the condition of affairs, sent word to
the Webster avenue police station.
DR.. Nevins was notified and an ambul-
ance summoned. DR.. Nevins ordered
Steib's removal to the City Hospital,
where he now lies in precarious condi-
ton. Neighbors are caring for the
