STUDYING MARS.
An Astronomical observatory for the
Southwest That will Eclipse
Haryard'S.

Mr.. W. f. White, general passenger
agent for the A., 4. & S. F., Col. Nolan
and daughter and Mr.. John A. Lowell, of
Boston, passed up the road yesterday en-
route east from trip to the coast.
Mr.. Lowell represents famous Massa-
chusetts family who have determined to
erect an astronomical observatory some
where in the southwest. He went first to
Tucson, but found there a peculiar
Skinner" in the atmosphere. Thence
he went to Flagstaff, and it is said the
conditions there were found to be very
good. The Santa Fe railroad people in.
sist that Flagstaff is the proper place for
it, and site has been donated by the
citizens of Flagstaff.
The magnitude of this enterprise may
be judged to some extent from the fact
that one of his telescopes will be of eigh-
teen inches aperture, or three inches
larger than that of Harvard, while the
others will be twelve and SIX inches, re-
spectively. The prime object of the
the study of Mars, while that planet
is i'll position on its orbit that brings
it nearest to the planet we inhabit. Mr..
Lowell will personally direct and super
wise the work.
The confguration of the planet Mars is
better known than that of any of the other
planets, and the reports which astrono
mers have made from time to time, with
regard to what they term ice caps, seas,
lakes, continents and canals, have excited
much interest among the well-informed
general public. With the advantages af-
forded by the excellent atmosphere, the
superior optical means and the position
of the planet during the present year, it
is thought that Mr.. Lowell will be able to
add materially to the worlds stock of in
formation about Mars.

Merited Honor to Col. johnson.

Merited Honor to Col. Johnson. :
Col. r. NJ. Johnson, formerly clerk of
the court in Santa Fe and now promi-
nent real estate owner in Elkhart, Ind,
has been appointed by Gov. Matthews as
one of the commissioners to represent
Indiana at a meeting of national and
state commissioners this month to assist
in locating the positions occupied by the
various bodies of troops engaged In the
great battles of Chattanooga, Tenn. This
is rendered necessary by the act of con-
gress setting apart the famous Chatta-
nooga battle fields as national park. In
one of these engagements Col. Johnson,
commanding the Tooth Indiana regiment,
had his horse shot from under him, four
bullet holes put through his coat and was
wounded in the face, while 372 of his men
were either killed or wounded. This will
give the rising generation faint idea of
the sanguinary nature of the battle.

"Disfigured
For Life"

Is the despairing cry Of thousands
afflicted with
Unsightly skin diseases.
Do you realize what this disfigura.
ton means to sensitive souls
1t means isolation, seclusion.
It is a bar to social and business success.
Do you wonder that despair seizes
upon these sufferers when
Doctors fail,
Standard remedies fail,
And nostrums prove worse than use
less?
Skin diseases are most obstinate to
cure or even relieve.
It is an easy matter to claim to cure
them, but quite another thing to
do so.
CUTICURA REMEDIES
Have earned the right to be called
Skin Specifics,
Because for years they have met
with most remarkable success.
There are cases that they cannot cure,
but they are few indeed.
1t is no long -drawn.out, expensive
experiment.

And its cures are simply marvellous.

The first annual grand prize shooting
festival of the San Jose Turn Nereiu

and will be concluded to-day. The crack
marksmen of :he California SchueiZeu
Club. the San Francisco SchuetZen Fereln,
the Germania Club and other shooting or
CARNATIONS which make their headQuar-
tiers Ia San Francisco turned out in lore
aud surprised the San Jose boys By the
rapid manner In which they took posses
sion of the shooting boxes as soon as pro-
ceedings were opened. The visiting marks
men kept up a constant fusiIade from the
time the targets opened until darkness
set in.
The new shooting range of the San Jose
Club by far surpassed the expectations of
many of the visiting devotees of the spiral
groove. Although the first aperture that
the marksmen were required TO shoot
through in order 70 reach the target was
some what small the riflemen soon got
accustomed to the new condition of things,
and it was but short time before the red,
white and blue flags began to wave in
obedience to the accuracy of the shooters.
Among some of the marksmen who left
this city on Saturday evening to be on the
ground early to capture the first bulseye
were Phlio Jacoby, L. Hadke. T. Schus-
Ter, H. Wreden and family, George Helm,
George Schultz and William holden, who
were met by delegates of the San Jose
Club and conducted TO their hotel.
There were six targets in constant oper-
alton. Four Of these targets were desig-
mated as point targets and two as honorary
targets. The point targets consisted of a
tweive-inch bulseye divided into three
parts. The outer part counted one, and
was Indicated by The marker waving a
white flag. The Intermediate portion
counted two points, and was indicated by
a blue flag. The Tuner or center portion,

RIVALS AT WAR.
Feud Over Programmes
in the Park.
Two Official Guides to the Pleasure
Resort Disturb the Officers
Peace.

The Golden Gate Park music programme
that visitors get every Sunday at the band
stand had rival yesterday. So jealousy was
rampant around the green lawns and red-dusI
walks.
AT last the park had been invaded by some
intruder, who should not be tolerated though
the heavens fall. Trouble began when a boy
started TO distribute little books inside the
park bright and early, without saying TO James
q. Murphy, the rival publisher, even "How
dye do?' or asking the park police TO stand
aside while he supplied the public with iitera-
ture.
Murphy rushed away to the park police sta
ton and informed Policeman Thomson of
rival within The gates. Then whips cracked and
spurs sang merry janele. while posse OF OFF,
GERS dashed away III search Of the culprt.
The-young- n-with-t the guide was dscoV-
cred standing at the Haight- street entrance.
He had Il bundle of pamphlets. entitled Official
Guide TO Golden q ate Park" A copy of letter
from the Park Commissioners granting permits
sion TO use this tile was on an inside page,
near the music programme, which had been
surreptil iously pasted in.
The park people could not interfere. but APP
pealed TO a policeman from the CITY Hall to
stop the distribution of dodgers. But for the
presence of policemen free fight might have
taken place. Later on Chief Crowley granted
permission TO distribute the pamphlets.
But the Park News man declares that he
possesses the exclusive right 10 publish an Of
hcial programme. aud Will have no opposition

Great crowds took advantage of The beautiful
day and visited the park. They gathered in
such dense masses around the music st%nd
that little room was lef. 10: people 10 move
along the walks. The childrep5 quarters were
also oyercrOwded, and as for the carriage con-
