CANNOT REACH FRESNO.
Thirty Grape-Pickers Disappointed BY
the Railroad Company.


Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald yester-
day received an order from A. D. Owen to
send thirty grape pickers to the Butler vine
yard, in Fresno County. The men were
quickly gathered and Mr.. Fitzgerald called
upon Messrs Goodman and Donaldson of
the Southern Pacific Company and notified
them that he wanted car to send the men
to Fresno at the special reduced railroad
rates heretofore agreed upon. The railroad
officials stated that the reduced rate was
given for carloads of fifty men, and that
for smaller number no reduction would
be made
Mr.. Fitzgerald argued that the fare was
all the money the men could raise. and
that the most of that had been contributed
by charitable people and institutions. Fur
thermore, if the men are not sent the vine
yardists will be seriously damaged by the
grapes spelling on the vines. The railroad
people would not recede from the position
they had taken, and answered that if the
reduced rate was to be accepted carload
lots of fifty men would be sent. The
Commissioner was obliged to telegraph to
Mr.. Owen that the order cannot be filled as
the men are unable to pay the full fare.
He hopes that within few DAYS he will
be able to send the full fifty and thus fill
his obligations to the vineyardists, who
have agreed TO do away with cody labor
and get help through the Free Labor Bu-
reau.
To-day 40 hop-pickers will be sent to
Pleasanton, Alameda County, on the /
o'clock train.

CHARGED WITH PERJURY,
Martin Kelly Swears Out a
Warrant for w. Harring-
tons Arrest.
Result of the Latter's Testimony
in the Libel Suit Against
the Examiner"

Martin Kelly, the politician, swore out
warrant i'll Judge Conlan's court yester-
day for the arrest of William Harrington
on the charge of perjury.
The complaint is long typewriter
document 1t recites the fact that Har-
rington was a witness for the defense in
the suit brought by Kelly to recover $780,
900 damages from w. r. Hearst of the
Examiner for libel. Harrington gave his
testimony on Thursday and the charge Of
perjury is based upon the following state
ment:
The first time knew Martin Kelly was when
he was arrested for arson, him and man
named Lennon, in the 1S70's, for setting fire
to his place right below me where l live. /
don't know about his being acquitted; he got
no insurance, know that.
Kelly denied that he was ever ARRESTED
for arson along with man named Lennon
or at any other time, and says there is not
the slightest foundation for the assertion.
The warrant was taken by Prosecuting
Attorney Forbes of Judge CampbelPs court
to Sergeant Houghtaling without having
the seal attached by the clerk of the court.
1t was brought back and at Forbes re-
quest was again handed to him. Forbes
went with it again to Sergeant Houghtal-
ing and said he would take the warrant to
the Southern police station. BY some
means it did not reach the station till late
in the afternoon.
Judge Low was hearing case yesterday
afternoon and remained about the hall till
5 o'clock in the expectation that Harring-
ton would be arrested as he was prepared
to issue an order for his release on his own
recogniZance.
Harrington and Kelly have been enemies
for years. In 1888, during primary cleo
ton at IA Kearny street, their enmitv Gull
minated in shooting scrape. Kelly was
struck by a bullet in the foot and Harring-
ton was wounded in the neck. One of the
bullets struck Dave Donahue and he died
from the wound. Though several people
were tried for the murder no one was con-
Yicted.

NEW TO-DAY.
CARE FOR THE SICK.
The Scope and Purpose Of the
Copeland Medical System.
To Provide Sufferers With Proper Treat
ment at Less Than Half the Usual
Expense and to Introduce More
Scientific Methods in the Treatment
and Cure of Chronic MaIadies.

Some things are worth telling once; some
things are worth telling million times.
Without apology, then, let it be repeated and
reiterated that the spirit and purpose of the
Copeland medical system is two-fold
Flrst-It is to bring to the treatment and
cure of chronic diseases generally the efforts
and labors OF physicians especially educated
and trained to their mastery, and thus to in
sure more competent, more radical and
more successful handling of those seated stub
born disorders most prolific of human misery
or most destructive of human life.
Second-1t is to place rich and poor alike on
absolutely one level and footing, as regards its
benefits, by making the fee undertaking and
uniform at So a month, including all medi-
cines.
The Copeland medical system provides that
sufferers from any and all chronic maladies
whatever shall be furnished with superior
treatment at fee-rate of So month for the
shortest time necessary to cure. and that all
necessary medicines shall be furnished free.
That the cures are permanent has been
shown by the testimony of patients, who have
repeated their statements after period of
years. Such testimony simply confirms what
Drs. Copeland. Neal and Winn have claimed
that the Copeland system of treatment is the
only absolute cure for catarrh and chronic dis
eases Don't delay, as delays are dangerous.
Call at the offices of Copeland Medical Insti-
tute at GIG Market street at once and place
YOUR case in their care.

| San Francisco he had lifted her hands and
| kissed them one at time and slowly, rev.
erently laid them back in her lap and left
her. No one except dying Chinese
woman had kissed them since.
The husband of the white woman died
and Formosa bought her of her mother-in-
law and took her to live with herself and
taught her to read in the English tongue
and called her Mary.
One day Franklin came. Mary saw him
coming, and dragged mat over her feet
and hid her face.
He told Formosa that an American of
beaten by a mob of rioters. He begged her
to go home. to let him take her to Amer
lea. She shook her head. "God will take
care of me, ;" she said. Her face was paler
than it used to be, her form had lost some
of its graceful roundness. He carried her
hand almost to his lips at parting, but did
not kiss it. She heard choking sound.
MARY Was ClutClllLS dI ueI buIOdI anu
gasping for breath. Formosa brought her
some medicine; she pushed it away.
Some more people were killed. There
was a riot at her very door. Once
more the other medical graduate came;
his face was pale; ne begged her to go
while there was yet time. He did not
know about Mary. Every day he passed
the place; only Mary saw him; Formosa
did not know. She steadfastly prayed her
prayers and went her way.
She had not succeeded in satisfactorily
converting Mary; it had given her much
unrest that she had not. A time when the
whisperings of danger had grown audibly
terrible she saw Mary turn from the little
curtained window. where day after day she
sat and watched-Formosa did not know
what-saw her turn away and slip down
on her knees and pray. A Joy OF success
cried SAT last, dear Mary, you have
given your heart to Christi
Mary looked dumbly at her and shook
her head. 81 prayed to your God to pro-
tect him and YOU" She drew her helpless
feet under her as she sat on the floor, and
a little smile fitted over her beautiful
mouth Then she wrung her hands and
cried in fierce agony: "Gol go! go! why
away? You will not listen-you will not
go, you will stay and be hacked to pieces,
and he will not go while you remain, and
II shall die!';
Formosa was too amazed to utter word.
The girl buried her face in her folded arms.
An unusual noise in the street attracted
Formosa. She listened-it came nearer, a
| mingle of jabber and screech and tramping
feet. A missile crashed through the
window and fell on Mary's head. She did
not raise her eyes to see what had struck
her. The noise came to Formosa's door.
There was moment of silence, and then
the screenings multiplied. Heavy objects
were hurled against the wall, and clods

She looked up quietly; roguish smile
twinkled one moment under her demure
lids, and she flashed at him, Marital pre-
negatives are out of date" He started, a
sparkle of admiration in his eyes; it was a
newness in her. Men like newness in
women. Mary Magdalen would have
been a sought after person in, the nine
teenth century, from the fact that she was
eight women in one. Formosa did not
yield.
The steamer left in the rain; "the great
white rain, - as the Sierrian calls it, fell
softly, softly till the green hills were hid
in its mist. They tugged slowly past the
frowning guns and past the foothills OF

ratified against it. Above the iabber and
screech and din arose voice she knew; it
was the other medical graduate. He was
swearing at them in round English, and or
dering them back. Formosa shuddered at
the blasphemy of his words, and sent up a
silent petition for aid and forgiveness for
him; but his voice touched her as it had
not in his mad hopeless pleading for her
love. All her life passed in panoramic
moment before her mind. She stepped to
the door and saw him; he was backed
against the wall, the missiles fell thick
about his head, score of hands clamored
to reach him. She gave sharp little cry
at the sight of him, and the hurting mis-
siles were turned upon her. The foremost
of the mob, big fellow whose face was
uglier with sweat and dust, made rush at
her; the man, crowded against the wall,
flung the mob aside right and left Just as
the big, sweaty, dust-faced leader was lay
ing hands on Formosa; he caught him by
the long braid of his hair and jerked him
fiat on his back on the ground.
A new howl chorused from the mob. He
sprang in at the door, pushed Formosa
back and stood before her. His sleeves
were torn off, his collar torn loose at the
throat, there was a wound on his head and
a small stream of blood oozed from it down
his cheek. Formosa knelt in corner be-
hind him and prayed with all her, soul for
him. She had no thought of herself.
Back and back and back and back they
beat him, step by step; his white arms
were spotted with blood, the muscles of
them protruded, the skin punches like
knots OF wood. A new note went up in
the noise-a shout of exultant rage-For-
mosa looked, the big dusky-faced who had
been thrown upon his back came with a
keen-pointed sword. Franklin did not see
it. Formosa uttered a shrek and closed
her eyes. She heard the descending sword
and q dull, plushy, pushing sound and the
fall of a body. Now sudden silence, and
out of it voice IN stern authority. She
opened her eyes and saw the peaked hat
and big button of one of the Kwang-fu.
The Cinnamon stood with arms hanging
down. Franklin stood there battered and
bruised and bloody, but free. On the floor,
her head on his feet, lay Mary, dead-the
sword run through her body. The man
with the tall nat and button of authority
stood in the midst of the su1len mob; he
ordered them out like dogs, and they went.

1t was late at night. The great throb-
bling heart and iron pulses of San Francisco
beat but family. The last boat from Ala
media had crossed the bay. Banks OF
luminous clouds rolled to and fro below
the moonlit SUBMITS of Tamalpals and
blocked the Golden Gate against the
world, The city editor of the great city
paper sat industriously at his desk; now
he drove his pencil furiousIy; now ne
touched button and boy did the rest.
Y ct for all his industry and pencll-drlvlng
energy he was not at all content, but cross
as bear; for the hOur-the last half OF
the last half-hour before going to press
was at hand, and here he was without
single sensation. The last body found
floating in the bay had been taken up
piece by piece and written up IN detail,
photographed. dissected, dished up day
after day, till the public stomach had
really learned to like it. Yet no more
bodies, either in whole or in part, could
be found, high tide or low tide, although

profitable to reporters, 1t was known that
many scribes, among them some prom

died-stricken with the plague. He had
kindled in her heart the fire of his own
zeal, and when he lay dead she stole into
the forbidden room and silently conse-
Grated her baby self to the work which had
dropped from her fathers hand.
1t is twelve years since then. The San
Francisco papers have list OF medical
graduates; among them is Formosa' S
name. She is still slight of form, but
gracefully and graciously rounded; her
face is trihe pale, but has in it the
nobility of beauty.
There is another medical graduate-not
a woman-who looks upon her with wor-
Shipping eyes. They have studied side by
side. The horrors of scalpel experiments
are mutually familiar, but she can talk
Chinese and write it, and he cannot. Yet
with all of it there is little of the new
woman about her. She is sanity of MEN,
has seen God in all things, and the spirit
within her to go forth and work is strong
as team of lions.
Her trunk is packed; her mothers child
ish sobbing in the next room distresses
her, her filial duty being second only to
her duty to God. Somebody is ushered
into the room. It is the other medical
graduate. He pleads with her. This tall,
broad houldered young Hercules, who, if
he chose, could pick her up and carry her
away, hardly feeling the weight of her in
his arms, pleads with her in a voice shaken
with emodon to give up the foolish sacri-
fee of herself and be his wife. She sor-
rowfully shakes her head.
ut is great work am undertaking,
Franklin, and my heart is in it. Do not
try to dissuade me"
He pleaded harder. There were tears in
his eyes and he was not ashamed. 1t was
not easy for even this sanity browed
maiden to resist him. A woman with
fewer years of training the self out of her
could not have resisted.
"Franklin,'' she calmly replied, "I love
you. l think l love you dearly. but it is
my duty to go; duty is higher than love,
Franklin"
Heaven is not higher than love" he
cried passionately. "You have no love;
you have no heart; you have been blinded
by bigoted education; you"
She drew away from him coldly. The
impetuous fellow was at her feet in mo-
ment.
"Forgiye me. sweetheart he said. II
