sectional feelings. He was a Californian
from the northern 10 the southern bounda-
res. He recognized the great responsible
ties undertaken by him, and he would.

latory addresses were made by Judge James

ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO-DAY
Efforts to Get the Name of the Dere.

CeSSful.

1t has been several months since as large
crowd assembled on Folsom street pier as
did yesterday. From early morning till
dark the pier was hardly visible, so densely
were the people crowded on il. The crowd
were watching the efforts of the men on the
tug Fearless to right the schooner brought
in Thursday morning.
The work of getting the schooner into her
proper position was commenced early in
the morning, but the efforts were unsuc-
cessful.
A diver went down and made an exami.

the vessels name. Everything underneath
was in chaotic state, and it was with diff

AT least twenty men were working on the
hull. One mast was still in position. and
this was thought 10 be stuck in the mud.
although there is said to be forty feet of
water at the end of the pier at high tide.
The diver made several trips beneath the
surface. and at about O'Clock p NJ. had the
lines where he wanted them. A very thick
hawser was made fast and connected with a
pully on the shears. At the other end the
tugs Reliance and Fearless took hold and
commenced to pull out into the stream.
Both vessels developed about 16, 600 horse
power and one side of the schooner came up
out of the water. The boats pulled harder
and harder, and soon the keel was turned
over till it met the waters edge. Only few
Inches more were necessary to pass the

location on the western side of the foothills
now known as the Contra Costa Range, near
stream now called Alameda Creek, about
FIVE miles inland from the eastern shore OF
the bay of San FranciscO.
Such was the beginning Of Alameda
County.
These two friars, Augustin Merin and
YsidrO Barcinalle in the year 1877, under
the authority of Diego de Boriea, the Gov
ernor of the indefinitely known Spanish ter
ritory of Alta California. founded at the site
mentioned the Mission de San jose, where
relies of their efforts still remain.
The Legislature of 1853 created the pres
ent county of Alameda, which contained
5000 inhabitants, and in 1873 Oakland be-
came the county seat.
The rapid growth and prosperity of this
region commenced Immediately upon the
establishment of the new county in 1858
All the travel to the interior of the State
and the east and south from the metropolis,
San Francisco. passed through Alameda
County Towns and villages sprang up
along the routes trsversed. and finally
spread over the entire country.
Various industries grew up and pros
pered.
The manufacture OF salt was commenced
at New Raven or Alvarado in 1850 and ( or
years the entire State depended upon it for
its saline supply. Ii is the only county In
the State where salt is manufactured. Six
companies are now engaged in the manu-
facture of this staple and hundreds OF tons
are annually shipped.
This county was also pioneer in the
erection of Touring mills. factories, etc.
The first smelling works for the reduc-
tion of rebellioCs ores and for the manu-
facture of lead in the State were erected in
Alameda County.

ALL FOR GLORY.
Melancholy Experience of
Stagestruck Girls.
Sadie Angel and Blanche Cora Say
They Were Abducted on Their
Way to School.

Sadie Angel and Blanche Cora, the young
schoolgirls who disappeared from home last
Wednesday morning. were found in New
ark yesterday afternoon by Detective An
thony. and were taken to their homes in
this city.
Anthony was sent by Captain Lees of tie
detective force early yesterday morning to
find the foolish little girls. one of whom is
10 years old, and the other several months
younger. He found them and returned
them to their homes last night
The girls went to Alameda and pawned
their jewelry. Then they went to Newark
and tried to obtain employment in several
families, but were unsuccessful. They
wanted to 90 to New York. where they
thought they would be employed as ac-
tresses and hoped to be able to earn enough
money to pay their fare.
They took rooms at clearinghouse
owned by Constable Dugan.
Dugan read the papers in which the story
Of the girls disappearance was given. and
when they tried TO go away in the morning
told them that they were his prisoners.
Then he telegraphed to this city and De-
tective An thony was detailed to capture the
little maidens. He succeeded, ana landed
the girls in the City Prison last night. Then
they were taken 10 their homes, where ii is
supposed they suffered from the attack OF
the parental rod.
The girls said. when questioned by the de-
tective, that while on their way to the
public school on Eddy street, near Polk.
they were trailed by men who induced
them to ride with them. and that they took
them 10 a hotel In Alameda, where they
spent the night. The men on the hack.
they said, wore masks and false boards,
but when the girls were separated each said
that the other had invented the story of the
abduction.
Alice Nugent and Kate Rohan, who were
believed 10 be TIE missing girls, were ar
rested last night aud booked for vagraucy
at the City Prison. Both gave bail and
were released.

county, and shipped more cherries than any

He explained his claim by reference to

Berkeley.
1t was impossible, he said, for mothers or
fathers to overestimate the value of eduea-

Alameda County would be found not a
younger sister of San Francisco. but CON-

almost done. but just an instant too soon
the immense hawser parted and the hull slid
back to its old position and all the work was
wasted.
The assembled crowd looked anxlously,
but nobody was able TO see the vessels
name. and il Is still unknown.
On account Of thu tide work was stopped,
but Will be resumed to-day.
William Griffiths. seaman on the British
ship Dominion, lost his life yesterday morn
ing by falling into the bay and drowning.
The vessel was lying at Green-street
wharf ana for several days men have been
at work scraping the sides. Griffiths was
working on staging and in some manner
the ropes got lOosened and the platform
swung out and he fell overheard.
He must have struck the side of the YES
sci and been rendered unconscious as he did
not come to the surface after falling in.
The alarm was given at once and several
rowboats with graphing irons appeared on
the scene.
The body was found about o'clock and
taken to the Mor2ue.
The deceased was "a years OF age and a
native of Wales.
The cargo of the ship Lord Templemo ore
suffered severely in the rough weather she
experienced on the passage. 1t was not
loaded very well and large quantity has
been damaged. but the worst Of 1t Is that IL
has all turned black. Not by any effect of
air or water, but because several casks of
lampblack worked loose aud scattered their
contents over the cargo as they rolled from
one end OF the ship to the other. The in
side of the hull looks more like chimney
than anything else and there is no telling
one article OF the cargo from another until
the black deposits are rubbed off.
Captain BOhlman of the shin Visurgis re-
ported to the police that his vessel had
been robbed Thursday night He gave the
names OF two oil the men who lie said came
on board his vessel and stole large quantity
of clothes ana also barrel Of tallow. But
yesterday morning the captain said he would
not prosecute the case, and developments
showed that the men were behind in their
pay. aud only took what belonged to them.
The bark Sycamore. which arrived In
port yesterday, reports passing through a
large quantity OF lumber few miles up the
coast. 1t was drifting about in bunch,
and was evidently the deckload of some YES
sci.

last night.
President II. G. w. Dinkelsplel Of Bay
City Parlor presided.
The treasurer rendered his semi-annual
report, showing the financial condition OF
the association to be very good
The secretary also read report.
An election of officers for the ensuing
year resulted in the reelection of Dinkel-
spiel to the presidency, Daniel Suter OF
Yerba Buena Parlor was chosen vice-presi-
dent, E. D. Roach of Golden Gate parlor
secretary. and Edward Hartmann treasurer.
The chief business of the evening was the
discussion of the feasibility of securing
better and more convenient quarters for
the association. 1t is thought best 10 rent
a building ON Market street with better
accommodation for club purposes.
The matter was thoroughly discussed and
a committee was appointed TO make the
search for new quarters
During the progress Of this meeting, in
an adjoining room the board of trustees OF
the Board of Relief Association was pass
ing upon e report of the secretary, Mr..
Coakley, bearing upon the good work ac-
comDlished by the new board during the
past year.
From the surplus OF $4,000 received at the
Admission day celebration of $780, for the
disposition of which this relief board was
first organized, $500 has been expended In
the support of sick and needy members Of
the several parlors.
A great amount Of good has already been
accomplished by this new body, and they
hope to make 1t a prominent feature of the
society.
Copies of the secretary's report were or
dered sent to all the subordinate parlOrs of
San Francisco.
1t becomes the duty OF the relief board to
carefully Investigate each application made
npon them 10 determine whether the cases
be worthy of assistance. Last night four
applications were made and generous ap-
preparation granted the brothers In need.

of the transfer were on hand last evening
TO explain everything in the display about
which information was desired.
Taken as q whole Alameda County at
traeted more attention and more praise than
any other county. and the growers and ar
rangers of the fruit exhibited have reason
TO be proud of the result of their labors.
San Francisco shares Alameda County's
pride in her rich showing, and was largely
represented among her admirers last night.
The Alameda County exhibit presents
a fine show on the south side of the Pavil-
ion not far from the main entrance and just
north Of the aquarium.

A pretty little collection OF citrus fruits
comes from Niles.
Another feature is the wine exhibit, Ala
media having taken three out of four prize
medals awarded at Paris for best quality
wines. The exhibitors are Messrs. Wet

Alameda's beet Industry is also repre-
sented by twenty-four jars showing the
stages of extraction Of sugar from the beet.
o. the upper floor considerable space is
appropriately devoted TO The handiwOrk Of
Alameda ladies, and very artistic it is. In
the art gallery hard by is large picture by
K. D. Yeland, and this is also claimed by
Alameda County. as it shows much of her
picturesque territory.
Pleasanton is well represented by samples
Of her famous hops and there are sill X
cOeoOns from other sections. Mrs. J. 2.
Rankin sends some choice jellies.
The entrance to this varied exhibit is
through a composite arch, the pillars OF
which are glass cylinders. containing no
less than seyenty-fye varieties of fruit, on e
of the features Of the Pavilion.
An eloquent address was made on the
resources and capabilities of Alameda
County, about 9 P. NJ. by ex-Mayor w. r.
Davis Of Oakland. who was introduced by
Mr.. Laymance. one Of the members of the
managing committee CT the exhibit.
