NATIVES IN CHICAGO.
Admission Day Celebration Held In
Jackson Park.


CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. The forty
fifth Admission day of California was cele-
brated to-day by the Western Association
of California Pioneers.
The German building in Jackson Park
was turned over to the association, and
from g O'CLOCK this morning generously
filed lunch-baskets were arriving on the
scene, incidental to the picnic gathering OF
the men and women who braved the dis
tant prairies and mountains in the forties
to help settle the Pacific Coast.
Old folks and young joined forces to cele-
brate the day. Experiences were told as
the spirit moved and many good old
story was remembered in the enthusiasm
of old acquaintance. The catering ar
rangements were perfect. Tea, coffee,
lemonade and ices were served in the Ger
man building and tables were provided
with lunch indoors.
The Western Association of California
Pioneers was organized in January. 1890.
In applying the term Pioneers" to the as
ISOLATION it is understood to mean
all who were residents of California
at the time of its admission
to the Union in September, 1850, but it is
not intended to exclude those who be-
came residents later on, limiting the time
for admission to membership to all who
started for California prior to January 1,

PLAINSBURG LENDS AID,
Offer of Money and Free Sites
to the Valley Road
Directors.
Surveying Stopped at MERGED Until
Right-of-Way Questions
Are Settled.

MERGED, CAL, Sept. THE Valley
road surveyors have been withdrawn from
the field between MERGED and Plainsburg
until the question of rights of way and de-
pot sites is permanently settled in this
city. Several surveys have been run be-
tween MERGED and Mariposa Creek, four
teen miles south of MERGED, during the last
week and Engineer Graham has everything
well in hand to continue the survey direct
to Fresno when orders are received from
headquarters.
The company is anxious to have the
rights of way in this county settled in or
der to commence on the grade work north
and south of the city and fully complete
it before the rains.
Plainsburg, the next town of Importance
south OF MERGED, comes forward with an
offer of ample depot sites free and $1,000 in
coin as an inducement to connect that
town with the new railroad system. A
committee from the Board of Trade, con-
sisting of e. T. Dixon, w. III. Turner and
Robert Gracey, leaves there next Monday
for San Francisco to take action in regard
to the depot sites and rights of way.
