INFLUX OF CRIPPLEs.
A Delegation of Beggars Sweep Down
on the City.

A Delegation of Beggars Sweep Down
on the City.
Judging from street indications last
night. there is about to be a convention of
cripples held here. Delegates thereto are
very thick about the lower part of town.
Their favorite caucus-place seems to be
about the corners of Third and X streets.
At 10 o'clock last night RECORD
UNION reporter encountered four men on
crutches at that point, and they were
holding an earnest consultation. A mo-
ment later they separated, and every per-
son that came along the street was
''struck" for dime or a quarter. In
crossing Third street two more one-legged
individuals were met, and on the block
between Second and Third three more.
All but one asked for aims. Among
the number was that intolerable street
nuisance, the legless negro, who some
weeks ago worked the town so
thoroughly, but who lately had been ply
ing his vocation elsewhere.
Police Captain Bradley informed the
reporter that the delegation had just come
to town, most of them from San Fran
cisco, and he had warned them to get off
the streets or stop their begging.
There must be places where these un-
fortunates would be cared for, but they
evidently prefer TO beg on the streets. In
most cases they are victims of the opium
habit, and for that reason they shun hos
pitals, where they cannot indulge their
appetite for the drug.
All helpless persons who reside in this
county are amply provided for, and these
roaming mendicants should be made to
move on, or return to where they are en-
titled to be cared for.

THE GRAND PARLOR.
Its Session viii Consume Part of
Another Day.
There Were So Many Speeches Yester-
day That the Ladies Could Not
Conclude Their Work.

The Grand Parlor of the Native Daugh-
ters of the Golden West convened in the
Senate Chamber yesterday morning, all
the delegates being on hand promptly.
They found there was so much business
to be transacted that it would be impos-
sible for them to finish yesterday, and
there is probably enough to keep them
busy most of to-day.
1t was decided to abolish the Office of
District Deputy Grand President.
A number of minor changes were made
in the constitution.
The new form of surgeons certificate
submitted was not adopted, the old one
being considered satisfactory.
1t was resolved that henceforth the
Grand Officers shall constitute Visiting
Board.
A rule was adopted requiring delegates
to be Past Presidents of their respective
subordinate Parlors, where possible.
The report ofthe Ritual Committee was
read and adopted.
Most of yesterday afternoon was taken
up in the nomination of candidates for
Grand Officers, to be voted on to-day.
Ihere is considerable competition for
the offices of Outside and Inside Senti-
mel, for Trustees. and Treasurer. There
are seven Trustees, and fourteen candi-
dates were placed in nomination yester-
day.
Each of the nominees was required to
address the assembly, and some ringing
speeches were probably made.
After the nominations the initiation
and secret work of the order was ex-
emplified. which took up considerable of
the afternoon.
Tho a1aotio,, sc ~ IYi ooxo
will take place to-day.
1t has been decided to hold the next
Grand Parlor at Watsonville, Santa Cruz
County.
The retiring Grand President. Miss
Clara Wittenmeyer, and the Grand Secre-
tary, Mrs. George Cotter, have been
freely complimented on all sides. and are
entitled to great credit for their able adj
ministration Of the affairs of the Grand
Parlor the past term.

WARRING WHEELMEN.
The Clubs Split on the Place of
Meeting.
Some VIII Go to Stockton and Others
to Alameda-The Capital
City's Action.

There has been considerable newspaper
controversy regarding the action taken
by the Capital City Wheelmen in the mat
ter of the State meeting, which was to
have been held in Sacramento July ith,
and In which the Sacramento club has
been severely criticised regarding its ac
ton in giving up the meeting.
As Sells circus is to be here on the
Fourth of July, and as their manager had
made prior arrangements for lease of
Agricultural Park on that date, it would
necessarily interfere with the races, as
the people would be crossing the track
continually, and the circus wagons would
cut up the track so that it would not be in
condition for bicycle racing.
AT the same time, however, the Capital
City Wheelmen could have held the
meeting here if they had so desired, as
they could get the track, but not under
conditions that would be satisfactory.
The Alameda Bicycle and Athletic
Club, seeing the position in which
things We're in Sacramento, offered the
use of their track for the meeting, giving
to the Capital City Wheelmen one-third
of the proceeds. AS the latter were in
partnership with the Bay City Wheel
illOAiB thOJ lOI dCCGpl
from the Alameda people, without first
consulting the San Francisco club.
a correspondence was then entered into
between the committees of the Bay City
Wheelmen and the Capital City Wheel
men. in which the offer OF the Alameda
club was brought up, with the under
standing that the Bay City Wheelmen
City Wheelmen if the meeting should be
held at Alameda
Owing to the intense animoSity exist
ing between the Bay City and the Ala
media clubs, the latter would have moth
ing to do with the former.
TO preserve harmony among the league
members, the Capital City Wheelmen
gave up the meeting in Sacramento and
turned the matter over to the State Board
of Directors of the California Division of
the League of American Wheelmen,
knowing at the time that the Bay City
Wheelmen had control of that body.
At the meeting of the Board of Direct
ors it was decided to hold the annual
races at Stockton, in conjunction with the
Native Sons celebration, under the
auspices of the Bay City Wheelmen, the
Oak Leaf Wheelmen and the Native
Sons.
The Capital City Wheelmen intended
to go to the meeting at Stockton in
body, but inasmuch as they were so
totally ignored, and subsequently so un-
justly accused Of underhand work with
the Bay City Wheelmen, they have unan-
imously decided to attend the meeting to
be held at Alameda in body, and lend
them the support of the Capital City
Wheelmen, though nothing is gained
financially by so doing
If arrangements can be made with the
Agricultural Society to give some bicycle
races during the State Fair, visitors
thereto may witness a meeting of the
speediest riders in California.

Everybody Reads 1t.

On Tuesday a gentleman named Thomp-
son, residing in San Francisco, sent the
following little advertisement to the
REcoRD-UNIoN with instructions to pub
lish it three times, if necessary:
/ OST = BETWEEN GOLDEN EAGLE

opal scarf pin set with four diamonds Finder
Will be suitably rewarded at this Office
The advertisement appeared on We'd
nesday morning, and a few hours there
after a lady came to the Office with the
pin and received the reward. The pin
was valued at upward of 500, and the
owner had little hope of ever again see
ing it. The lady had found it in Capitol
Park.
So much for advertising in paper that
everybody reads.

There appears to be some doubt as to
the truth of the story told the police bv

STATEHOOD.
The Probabilities of Immediate Action
 by the Senate.

Those sho believe that Senate ac- ton on the admission of Arizona as a state will be deferred until tine next Congress are likely to be in error. While this is possible, it is not prob able. Any hour the wires may flash the glad tidings. The Democratic nariy are committed to prompt action, and the admission of the territories is prominent plank in the national Republican platform. Prompt action as to Arizona is being urgently advo> cated by our delegate in congress and by Gov. Murphy. The matter is now m the hands of the committee Of the Senate and upon their report will doubtless be taken up as special busi- ness and carried, with the likelihood that date of admission will be placed subsequent to the fall elections.
 Section 9, Article XXII, of the con- stitution already adopted by the con- stitutional convention provides upon admission for an immediate proclama- ton by the proper executive and for an election which shall not be more than forty days from the date of such proclamation, nor more than ninety days from the admission of the terri tory as n staie Tn eyent nf fhe ad- mission of Arizona within the next few weeks it is probable that county officials will hold over until the state election.
