authority, invited the WOman's Press AsSO-
citation to entertain the female visitors, and

ing between the two bodies of local

Two Organizations withdraw From the
Council.

Two Organizations withdraw From the
Council.
The recently elected officers Of the Fed
Grated Trades were installed last night and
new delegates from several unions were
seated. President Mackay stated that he
would announce the names of his committee
on Friday evening
a letter was received from G. Delougre,
who has been sent by the French Govern
ment to study the labor question in the
United States. He asked for information
concerning the membership, object and
workings OF the labor organizations on the
Coast. The Secretary was ordered to give
the data requested.
The Federated Trades Of Sacramento and
the Machine Wood workers Union of this
city notified the council that they had with
drawn from its jurisdiction. No reason was
given for tina withdrawal Of either body.
II. KretlOW and A. FuTuseth, who repre-
Sented the council at thu Convention OF the
American Federation OF Labor recently
held at Birmingham, Ala, reported that it
had. among other matters of Importance,
adopted memorials to Congress in favor IF
Government ownership of telegraphs, tele-
phones and railroads and against the en-
ployment of Chinese and japanese on ships
subsidized by the Government.
The Executive Committee reported that ii
had been unable 10 settle the differences be-
tween the dry goods clerks and their en-
plOyers, who refuse to keep their agree
ment to close their places of business at au
early hour in the evening. One of these
employers told the committee that he had
lost $4,000 last year on account OF the early
closing system. He fatty refused to return
To the system that had caused him such
heavy loss.
The Executive Committee also stated that
il had been unable to induce the Jackson
brewery TO compel its drivers to pay the $50
assessment levied by the Brewers Union
for defensive purposes in the event of
general lockout. Notice of a boycott on the
brewery was given by the union delegates.
The c0opers reported that three Of their
members, who were prominent in recent
strike, had been discharged without cause
by their employers
The cigar-makerS reported that their trade
is unusually dull, owing to the importation
of tenement-hOuse cigars from the East.
The Brewery WOrkmen's Union Will hold
a special session tonight, at which secret
ballot will be taken to determine what
course the organization shall pursue if the
employers again make war upon il. The
union has leased the three-Story building
at 1888 Mission street for ten years, and will
endeavOr 10 make a headquarters for labor
societies and will call the building Trades

BUCKLEY PROTEGES.
Efforts TO Create Sentiment for
the EXiled Boss.

Printed circulars were scattered broad
cast yesterday among Democrats of the
city who were not suspected Of anti-Buck-
ley leanings. They bore the name of A.
I. SPOTS as Chairman Of the Executive
Committee of the County Central Commit
tee, and invited the recipient to a meeting
to be held at Metropolitan Hall on the 22d
inst, to devise schemes for the advancement
OF the Democratic party during the coming
campaign.
1.-The organization established at 207
Suffer street." by which is meant the Demo
cratic Reorganization Committee, is de-
nounced in the circulars. the real object Of
which is to create a Buckley sentiment
among the Democrats.
A prominent Democrat stated last night
that twO-thirds of the members of the
Democratic County Central Committee pre-
tend to be opposed to the restoration OF the
dethrOned Buckley, but that they lacked
the nerve and the means to fight him openly.
The committee includes such well-knOwn
citizens as the absent Christopher himself,
Jerry Driscoil, Jake Rudolph, James Long,
Alexander Greggains and John D0ugherty.
The genuineneSS of their reformation is
questioned by some members of the Re-
organization Committee
The full text of the circular is as follows:
DEMOCRATIC COUNTY COMMITTED
SAN FRANCISCO,
January T. 1892.
Dear Sir: We submit for your consideration a
copy OF preamble aud resolution unanimously
adopted at a meeting OF the County Committee,
December %, 1891.
The plan published In the newspapers and
offered by gentlemen who have headquarters at
207 Suffer street provides among other things
for persons 10 select delegates 10 the next State
convention. The selection by themselves Of
themselves as an executive or county commit
tee, with extraordinary powers to manage the
local campaign OF 1892, is also contrary TO Dem
Ocratic doctrine and precedent, and In this and
other respects their plan cannot be what the
mass OF thinking Democratic voters want. The
County C0mmltIee alone has the right 10 repre-
sent "the Democratic party of the city and
county Of san Francisco" at the present time II
party rules, the Porter primary law and
the new ballot reioIm law" mean
Section 4, Of the printed plan of 1886,
sit alone shall have power TO ameLd this con-
SiluIiOn." ibis can and VIII be done in The To-
terests OF the whole party If Democrats will
meet and confer with this Executive Commit
tee. We would be pleased 10 have you and your
friends offer our committee any written or vet bal
suggestions that NAV AID the party IN the prtm-
ses. A meeting of this committee Will D5 held
Friday, January o. 1892. at O'Clock in the
evening, IN lower Metropolitan Hall. You are re-
specially requested to be present. Any COM
muuicalions care Metropolitan Hall, Fifth street,
Will meet with action on our part, and ODllge,
Yours very respectfully,
The Executive Committee OF the Democratic
County Committee, by A. L. Spots, Chairman

ABOUT LIGHT.
The Means of Illumination, by
Professor L. c. Lane.
First Of the Tenth annual Course Of Lectures
at Cooper Medical Conege-some
Luminous Facts,

Professor L. c. Lane opened the tenth an
uual course of Lane lectures at Cooper
Medical College last night before an audi
ence of about 200 people in which the ratio
Of ladies TO gentlemen was about three 70
two.
Professor Lanes theme last evening was
Light and the Means of Illumination" DR..
c. y. EIIinwood introduced him as the
founder Of the course and upon his rising
he was most cordially appiauded
Dr. Lanes lecture did not present many
new theories nor any revision of Old ones.
His treatment was modelled on the cyclo-
pediacll school. He was liberal in defni-
lions and reviewed the history Of artificial
light from the taliow candle to the incandes-
cent electric burners.
lie paid tribute to the late Dr. James P.
Whitney Of this city and referred TO his
beautiful theory that light was matter re-
fined by heat. The rainbow he said was the
decomposition of light by raindrops. The
mirage arose from the refracton Of light
and the hand Of man was converting the
mirage into a reality IN the San Joaquin
Valley whenever an irrigation ditch was dug.
The chemical action Of sunlight was utll-
lied by Photography
AN ELEMENT OF HYGIENE.
Exposure tp light was an important ele-
ment Of hygiene. Il was ID evidence that
in a certain town in Europe, where whole
generations lived and died in one city,
the people who resided on the sunny side OF
the street showed the greatest longevity
The great qualities needed m light were
that 1t should contain no impurities, that II
should not heat the air too much, and that il
should contain the same spectrum cOOTs as
are in sunlight Morse had forced cleo
tricty 10 write fOr US and Edison had
made it talk for Us and light our halls.
The professor advised the use Of blue
glasses as relief for the eyes where the
electric light proved tiresOme The gre at
advantages Of the electric light over all
other lights are thatit consumed no oxygen,
did not generate heat and gave out no car
bOnlC acid gas.

Stores by an Insane Woman.
New ORLEANS Jan. 8.-A few days ago
a wel-dressed woman called at the jewelry
stvre Of SkOoleI Il Co. to look at some dia-
monds. She represented herself to be the
niece of Mrs. c. 4. Whitney, one of the
wealthest residents of New Orleans. The
caller did not have the money to pay for
the diamonds and clerk accompanied
her home to get it, She went into Mrs.
Whitney's to show the diamonds to her
aunt, she said, and the clerk renamed out
side.
He waited for half an hour and became
alarmed. He began to search, but the
woman had disappeared, and no one in the
house could account for her. The police
and the detective agencies have been on the
alert ever since. Yesterday she attempted
to pawn some of the diamonds. The police
were summoned but again she disappeared,
leaving the diamonds behind. They were
subsequently, identined by SkOOler

Won Publ as the thief, just as she was about
to leave Tor Baton Rouge. Several dia-
mOnds and other jewelry we're pointed out
