islands at the sumo rate of duty as was inn

ances that Canada products would receive in
all respects the favored nation treatment. and

ner Leathe Company's big tannery, TO-
gether with that of Conrad Brothers,
located at the foot OF Sherman street,
were almost totally destroyed by fire
this morning. The firemen we're much

building was full of fremen when the
flames leaped to it. Ono fireman named
Huebner was overcome by smoke and
burned to death. Another named
Thomas Sullivan is missing. He was
probably overcon re by smoke and his
charred remains will be found in the
ruins. George Reychman. of the fire
patrol. was overcome by smoke in the
Conrad building and died. His body
has beon recovered. This makes the
second death, with the probability that

Democracy will cease to exist as an or

Tho story now.is that about all that is

many whose primaries are tomorrow. a

yesterday that he believed the County
Democracy wou never hold. another

friends said that Charles Jackson, chair
man OF the County Democracy, for some
time had expressed desire to enter
Tammany. Should Jackson enlist
under the banner of Tammany he would
probably carry with him most of the
County Democrats. Jackson has not
been in close affiliation of late with
either exMayor Grace or eX-Police JUS

at all likely to be included in the

was defeated by eight votes. The rec

saln' year Joseph Hooker was appointed
road overseer in Sonoma township.
lockers falls are located at the head
of . deep canyon in the Napa mountains.
A stream Of water tulnbles down the
rug ;ed side of the ravine into a broad,
deep pool, surrounded by tall redwood
trees. The trail that leads from the
valley to Hooker's falls is a very danger
Gus one to follow. 1t winds along the
side of the canyon, and in many places
1t Is so narrow that two persons cannot
pass on il.
The guide tells IA rather exciting story
of how one day Hooker. who was hunt
ing i'll the canyon, met at one of these
points in the trail "a bear. and after 4
vain ATTEMPT to kill the brute with IA
ball from his rifle he closed with it, and
fought TIE animal desperately with a
hunting knife. During the fight man
and bear rolled down the side of the
canyon. Hooker. wounded and bleeding
lodged in the limbs of IA redwood tree.
and was taken down a few hours late:
by Il searching party that had come ont
for him. The bear was found mt tive bot
tom of the ravine dead.
Lieutenant Hooker was but one Of u
coterie of young army officers who were
qnartered in SOnoma valley in 1S4S. and
across SOnoma creek from the Hooker
ranch stands The Rendezvous where
the young army officers were in the habii
of meeting weekly 10 pass an evening IA
cards, chess and other social pastimes
which were sweetened by the banque'
of the native wines that had been casked
for years IN the musty cellars of Pedr"
Curillo. a wrinkled Spanish miser. who
threw the doors Of his ranch house open
to visitors only when they were willing
to pay handsomely for their entertain
ment.
About the building, which is still hab.
liable, broad limbed oak trees cast their
shadows, and "a tall flagstaff, erected 10y
Pedro Curillo at the request Of his mill
tary patrons, stands in the yard. From
this staff, when there We're important
questions to be discussed or an enter
tainment to be given, the American flag
was suspended. and those of the select
coterie of habitues of THE Rendezvous
who saw it floating in the breeze made
haste to obey its call.
