A SAD SUMNER OUTING.
Miss Nina Stalker Drowned Near
Santa Cruz.
Washed From the Rocks While FISH
ing with Some Frfends-The
Body Not Recovered.

telegram to the RECoRD-UNION from
Santa Cruz yesterday conveyed the sad
intelligence of the death, by drowning, of
Miss Nina Stalker, the lG-year-olh daugh-
ter Of Mr.. ana Mrs. w. d. Stalker of this
city. She was washed off the rocks and
drowned while fishing with some COM
panions at Twin Lakes Park, near the
town of Santa Cruz
Shortly after noon Miss Stalker, in
company with Miss Lille McCann, Cap
tain Beebe and Mr.. Walker, were seated
on the rocks fishing. The tide was at its
flow, and large breaker dashed over the
rocks knocking down the whole party
and sweeping Miss Stalker into the sea.
The others saved themselves by cling
ing to the rocks, although unable to rem
der any assistance to Miss Stalker. She
made no outcry. but clung to her fishing
rod and bravely struggled in the waves
for few minutes.
The breakers are very heavy at this
point and she was soon exhausted. Her
body was afterward visible for two honrs.
Miss Stalker lett her home in this city
nearly four weeks ago to spend a month
with friends at Santa Cruz. Her health
had been delicate for some time, and it
was thought that few weeks down by
the ocean would benefit her, and it old.
Only yesterday her mother received let
ter from her stating that her health had
greatly improved, and that she would re-
turn home next Tuesday.
Only few hours after the receipt of the
letter came the sad intelligence Of her
death by drowning. The young lady was
reared in this city, and was not only the
light Of her parents home but a general
favorite with all that knew her.
The body had not been recovered at last
accounts, and Mr.. Stalker will leave on
the first train this morning for Santa
Cruz in the hope of being able to re-
cover it.

Ed Jordan, the lad who while picking
hops on the Menke ranch gave Charley
Mitchell, another youthful hop-picker, a
severe beating, knocking out two of his
teeth, testified as above in his own de-
tense, yesterday afternoon, in Justice
Henry's court. He added that he thought
Mitchell called him something bad, but
he was not sure.

"Real mad ?"
Yep" lie evidently thought it was
all a huge joke.
"Well," said the Judge sternly. some
body ought 10 have picked you up right
there and spanked you until you were in
better humor."
Jordan's grin disappeared and he hung
his head.

Jordan was not expecting this. When
he recovered his breath, though, be said
he would leave town if the Judge would
let him oil.
NO" said his honor. "You had bet

Ten thousand operatives in the mills

duction Of wages. Dundee has all the
blessings OF the British FREQ trade sys-
TEN and great prestige in her branch Of
industry.
II Dundee were in the United States
tho free traders would be quick to as
cribe the troubles to the hideous evils
Of protection. The boot being on the
other leg the FREQ traders do not feel
called on to give out any ottheir sweet
ness and light.
Very often 1t is said that organized
labor is alone sufficient to maintain
wages. There is no lack OF organiza-
tions devoted to this effort in Great
Britain. Only the other day one Of
them reaorted to incendiarism in mad
effort to hold its own.
Whatever else may DO true it is not
true that strikes are the peculiar
product Of protection. Nor is it true
that organized labor in any country is
strong enough to Withstand the compe-
tltion Of the entire world. We need
protection as we need doors to keep out
the rain, the snow, the cold and the
heat
Tho Democratic party and tho British
free traders do not coincide with this
view, but this is not tho frat question
