Non-partisans Alert

The movement which at the election flung
TO the breeze the banner of the Citizens
Non-Partisan party is too firmly rooted In
the convictions and wills of the people 10
die.
Although the heat OF party warfare has
subsidized, the justice and necessity of the
NOu-Partisan cause remain unGminished
and the eX-com batanis are silently waiting
under armOr TO engage in the good work
again whenever occasion arises.
Among other indications Of the whole
some effect and continuing results OF the
movement may be quoted recent resolu-
ton emaBating from a club of thoughtful
cltiZpBs.
This is the club formed at I47 Belcher
street, Mr.. Clancy being the organizer, 70 I
the benefit OF the op-Partisan party.
After mature deliberation 1t was resolved
that at the meeting next Wednesday night
the club would proceed to consider ways
and means for building hail for the pur-
pose of continuing the Non-Partisan party
until next election.
The resolution was signed by one hun
dred and twenty-five members.
1t is evident that the tendency of the
times is toward clean, strong and economical
municipal government.

TEN CENTS SHORT.
Two Women Do Battle at
an Auction.
The Blonde Went Broke and Lost the
Coveted Cane Bottomed Rock
iEg-Ctiair.

Two women stood before the auctioneer's
desk In wel-known auction-house yesier-
day, and took turns at outbidding each
other on the various articles under the ham,
mer.
One was a little light-haired, blue-eyed
woman in black. and the other was tall and
dark. and from the way they looked at each
other as the sale progressed it was plain
that anything but friendly feeling existed
between them.
They were two hair-dressers who bad
heretofore been partners. but had agreed to
disagree, and the auction sale was the out
come of The dissolution. Both had. how
ever, determined to r, sumo business single
handed, and both were equally determined
to buy in the furniture which had belonged
TO the firm.
Under these circumstances the sale was a
lively one. though few present besides the
auctloneer and the fair contestants knew
why that lot Of furniture brought such high
prices, or why one bidder always looked
triumphant aud the other SO cIestfallen,
when an article was knocked down 10 one
or the other.
The auctloneer was greatly amused, though
lie tried hard not TO show il. whenever he
knocked down an article 1T tT ice its original
cost.
wise the furniture, when the last article
was offered, and both women seemed more
determined on securing this than anything
previously offered.
1t was one OF those large cane rocking
chairs, and the bidding was started at $40
by the blonde.
Ten dollars. ten dollars I'm offered, do
hear the twelye?" cried the auctioneer. and
she OF the dark hair nodded to him, and
looked defiance AT her opponent.
'Fiiteeni" said the little woman, RETURN
ing the look with interest.
The auctioneer delivered n short Grafton
on the merits and value of that particular
chair. and the spectators grew interested.
Fifteen and half! ~ said an old gentle
man, on whose mind the true state of affairs
had not yet dawned. Both women looked
at him IN disdain.
Twenty said the brunette. and her lips
closed firmly az she glared at her rival.
The little one turned Just a shade pale
''Twenty-fve."
After little more talk by the auctioneer
the other woman bid twenty-seven and a
half There was long pause, during

she raised the bid twenty-five cents

lips and hastily scanned the contents of her
purse.
The blonde looked triumphan. and smiled

ponent offered ten cents more the smile de-
parted and she turned hurriedy away to

VICTIMS OF THE STORM.
Details of the Drowning of the Two
Italian Fishermen.


Ii is matter OF wonder that heavier loss
OF lie has rot been reported among the bay
fishermen.
As stated in THE CALL of yesterday, two
Italian fishermen. whose names were not
then obtainable, were drowned, and so far
these are the only two fatalities due directly
to the bay.
1t now seems that the hapless men were
Augustine Faulconi and Luigi Mossi. who
were members Of fishing expedition.
From the story of the survivors it seems
that large number OF boats went up the
river last Saturday to fish for bass.
when the gale came up the boats ran for
shelter under the lee of Sheep Island, and
there remained for three days.
On Tuesday night the crew of three OF the
boats thought the gale WAS over, ana that
they might safely start for home in this city.
They were hardly half way across. how
ever, when the gale came Cp again with re-
doubled fury and drove them back
The big smack Dalmatia capsized, and
Anasa faro, owner and captain, and his
crew chung to the keel, whence they
were picked off by one of the other boats.
The Dalmatia drifted on the rocks and was
ground up 10 matchwood.
Faulc0ni and MOssi, the two victims, were
In boat which went on the Berkeley mud
flats. She was capslZed, but the men snc-
ceeded In getting upon the wet and slippery
bottom.
For two hours they held on. the waves
dashing over them, and the men in the
other boats unable to reach them.
Finally a rowboat was secured and was
within 500 yards of the hapiess fishermen,
when a bigger wave than usual washed
them off the keel, and they disappeared.
A patient search for them was unre.
warded by success, and their comrades are
mourning their loss.

Five Unruly Prisoners closed in the
Dark Cell.

George Wilson. young fellow who re-
Gently arrived from the East, was dis
charged from the County Jail yesterday
after serving thirty days for vagrancy. To
a reporter he related doleful tale of

vagrancy was due to hard luck and his in

crowd OF us cheered in the cell. Five of us
were put In the dark cell. where a big hose
was played upon US. We remained in the
dungeon with our wet clothes on for week.
during which time all the food we had was
hall loaf OF bread every forty-eight hours.
Every time we asked for more the jailors
threatened to drown us if we did not keep
still. Worse than all. the dismal cell in
which We were kept was alive with ver-

When questioned about Wilson's story
the jail officials admitted that they had con-
hned hye hoodlums in the dark cell and had
played the hose upon them because they
were Dolsterous and unruly.

There is not a candidate on the Re
publican ticket who has done so much
for the entire ticket as Tom Newman.
He has made an active, earnest, able
canvass, not only in his own behalf,
but i'm behalf also of all the nominees
of the convention, and in support of the
great principles upon which the Repub-
lican party asks the judgment Of the
nations electors. He deserves well at
the hands Of his party and the people
of the county generally, and they can
best testify their appreciation of the
zeal, energy and fine ability he has dis
played by casting their votes for him
today for the important Office of county
attorney, the duties of which he is ex-
ceptionally well qualified to creditably
discharge.

DISCORDS FROM TWO ORGANS

The Independent, during the CAM
paign, has devoted good deal of space
to the HERALD, which it has been
pleased to presistently refer to as the
Land Company's organ" Evidently
it has not enjoyed the music which has
emanated from the aforesaid "organ,"
and especially the judgeship tune. Our
Bourbon contemporary seems to have
an idea that corporations have no rights
which courts are bound to respect
and it accordingly roars great
roar because the HERALD has
seen fit to direct public at
tention to the unjust judgment en-
tered against the company by order of
Judge VIM in the big delinquent tax
suit. The Reveille on the other hand
comes out with long revenue article
pronouncing the HERALD's editorial on
the subject "an ingenious and .knavish
trick" declaring at the same time, how
ever, that there is nothing wrong in
the editorial per Sc" What seems to
concern our esteemed morning contem-
porary the most is the very natural ap.
plication which the Democrats have
seen fit to make Of the article in ques
ton. In view Of the fact that this pa
per has never made any pretense Of
supporting Judge Winn an intellect
must be dense indeed that would ser
iously construe such an articl,
in his favor. And Brother Adams
intellect is not dense. The
article is plain enough even TO an
ordinary understanding. The WORD
"knav:sh" is hardly fraternal expires

been very properly a subject for adverse
criticism. 1t would seem that ordinary
prudence would deter its proprietors
from throwing stones lest they invite
a fusilade to their own glass house.
As for the Land Company, its men,
beers will doubtless rejoice and be ex-
ceeding glad if, as the Reveille init
mates, it proves to be easy to get the
adverse judgment overruled by the SUI
preme court. Unfortunately, however,
the court records of the past three years
do not warrant such an inference, as
the supreme court has affirmed the de-
cision in every case that has been heard
on appeal from this district since
Judge Winn has been on the bench.
