NAPA, CAL, Aug. 27.-Deputy Sheriff
Jesse Walters has arrested two scissor
grinders for assaulting and terribly beating
Antonio Novini, who lives about three
miles northwest of Yountville.
Henry Meyer, who was an eyewitness to
the assault upon Novini, says that on Sum
day he went to Novini's house for jug of
wine, and that while he and Novini were
sitting in the front yard, kaufman and
Faest, the scissors men, came up, and he
invited them to sit down and have drink.
1t was not long before wine bad got the
best of them all, and they began to quarrel.
One word led to another, until Kaufman
or Faest, it is not known which, picked up
large rock and beat Noyini over the head
with it, fracturing his skull just above the
left eye, gashing his head and face in a
frightful manner, and almost severing one
of his ears from his head.

WAPAKONETA, OHIO, Aug. 27.-This
morning the water works trustees hired
lot OF men to fill the places of strikers who
were digging trenches. About dozen
were at work when the strikers interfered

WGnnack Brothers Pleasure Resort Hilt
Not BE Opened.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Aug. 81. - Los
Angeles has lost pleasure resort. Some
weeks ago the Wannack Brothers pur-
chased the magnificent grounds on the
east side, formerly belonging to Baron
Rogniat, with the intention of making it a
magnificent pleasure garden, promising to
spend $125, 600 to that end. AS the project
involved the granting of license to dis
perse liquor on the grounds, which raised
much opposition from adjacent property
owners, the Wannack Brothers to-day
withdrew their application for the license,
and 1t looks now as though the project
would be abandoned.

of San Francisco will occupy their new
hall on Mason and Post streets. This
imposing structure has been erected dur
ing the past year by the hall association,
of which Brother James D. Phelan is the
presiding genius. 1t was the aim of the
association to make this hail the finest
fraternal home in California. In short
time its doors will invite public inspec-
ton and the people will then see how far
their I'm bition has been realized. Under
that roof the parlors of the Native Sons
located in the heart of San Francisco will
in future meet to carry out the purposes
of their life. The mission of the Native
Sons is not so much one of fraternity as of
patriotism; not SO much to worship at the
shrine of the good Samaritan as to garner
new luster to the glory of our State.
Even as California grew from wilder
ness into great State in the Union,
springing beautiful and bright as Venus
from the sea, so will the Native Sons,
springing from the loins of our fathers
alike our fathers and the fathers of Cali
fornia-grow and expand into great and
powerful institution-great in the good of
country and of humanity.

favor of lemons, although the severe
freeze of the preceding season resulted in
cautious planting, and only in those locali-
ties in which there was reasonable assur-
ance of freedom from frost was the plant
ing very extensive. In such localities,
however, very large tracts have been set to
lemons, and this branch OF the citrus in
dustry gives promise of being very i'm
portant one. Much interest has been
awakened in it by the successful expert
ments of several intelligent and successful
growers, the results of whose experience
have been published by the State Board of
Horticulture
Whatever diminution there was in the
planting OF citrus fruit trees was compen-
stated for in the setting out of deciduous
fruit orchards, and the large returns
yielded from apricots. peaches and prunes
In 1892 resulted in a boom for those fruits,
and very large tracts were set to these in
the seven southern counties.
In the counties of the San Joaquin Val
ley, also. very extensive paintings OF de-
clduous trees have been made. This is
especially true of Tulare and Kings coun-
ties, where an impetus has been given to
orchard work of late years by the extraor
binary yield, large size and excellent quail
lty OF their deciduous fruits. The compar-
alive freedom of this section from fruit
pests and diseases has also greatly encour-
aged the extension of orchard work.
In the foothill regions of Tulare County
very extensive paintings of citrus fruits
have been made, the lemon being largely
IN favor. This has been brought about by
the success which has attended orange
and lemon culture at Porterville and else
where in the foothills OF Tulare County.
Extensive paintings OF fruit, both citrus
and deciduous. have also been made in
MERGED County, in Placer County, in Butte
County, at Thermalito and Palermo, and
IN different parts of Tehama County.
Besides these there have been large num-
bers OF small orchards Sc. out in all the
counties of the State. adding very largely
to the orchard area.
For the present season the outlook is not
encouraging for much in the line of Or
chard planting. The causes which have
combined to depress the prices OF fruit and
lessen the demand during the past season
have also had their effect upon prospect

fact that Caifornians should keep
constantly before them is that the people
OF the United States expend annually 49,
100000 for imported fruit, by far the larger
part of which could and should be supplied
by California. How to reach the consum-
ers OF this fruit and control the market for
our own State is the great problem before
US for solution at the present time. This
subject has been exhaustlvely treated, and
shows that there is yet very large, unde-
veloped market which must be reached by
our shippers.
In addition to this undeveloped market
there is very large number of people to
whom California fruit is as yet an unap-
proachable luxury, but within whose reach
it will be placed by more rapid and cheaper
means OF transportation, for both of which
we may reasonably hope.
The area planted to new orchards in tine
seasons OF 1898 and 1894 was fully up to
the average. In Southern California the
plant OF orange trees was less than usual
the low prices received for the crops of
past seasons and the very large area in
oranges having inspired a feeling of doubt
as to the future possibilities in orange
growing. A stronger feeling prevailed in

Andrews amendment adopted at Wood
land, in 1886, more fully specified the uni
form to be worn. The Grand Parior at
Fresno, in 1887, repealed the previous reso-
lutions and adopted the substitute resolu-
ton of Charles Maginnis: THAT the
members of any parlor may organize and
equip themselves for drilling, or form a
drill corps, and are privileged to use the
letters n. S. G.. W. for purposes of desig-
nation
The subject of ritual for long time per-
picked the Grand parlors. Successfully
the order has worked under the rituals of
General VIM, Higgins, Lunstedt, Hous-
ton, Pedlar, Decker, Pardee and O'Con-
nell, none of which were satisfactory. The
last Grand Parlor adopted the Coombs
ritual and the Clark secret work, which
have given general satisfaction. From a
membership of 200 that the order enjoyed
in 1873, when the three parlors formed
Grand Parlor, the order has since grown
to 195 parlors, floating the American and
Bear flags in every city and town that is
on the map OF California, and counting
mem bership of nearly 10000, and the hope
to be recognized as a peer among the fra
ambitioned in 1875, is realized. Our par
lors and our people are known and APP
proved throughout the State. Our Grand
parlors have met in San Francisco. Marys-
vile, San Jose, Sacramento, Woodland,
Nevada City, Fresdo San Rafael, Chico,
Santa Rosa, Los Angeles, Eureka and
Oakland, and meets next year in San Luis
Obispo. To the general public the order
is, however, best known through its an
nual observance of the anniversary of the
admission of California into the Union of
States. The 9th of September celebrations
have been held in Marysville, Stockton,
Santa Rosa. twice in Sacramento, twice in
Santa Cruz, three times in San Jose, twice
in Napa, and in 1890 the memorable DEM
onstration occurred in San Francisco,
which was not surpassed by even the
grand Knight Templar display in 1883.
In the year 1900 the order proposes to
hold another celebration in San Francisco
that shall exceed in magnifcence all previ-
Gus exhibitions OF fraternal and patriotic
zeal.

side of the State, and for several sessions
OF tie Grand Parlor the same amendment
was presented by him and as regularly de-
feated.
The Grand Parlor OF 1883 refused to grant
a charter to the applicants residing in
Tom bstone, Ariz., and at subsequent ses-
sions petitions we're received from Seattle,
Tucson. Virginia City and Reno, but they
were in all cases denied. The nonresident
natives and their advocate, J. A. Stein
bach, were persistent III their cause, and
the petitions, notably the one from Virginia
City, provoked some warm but amicable
debates in the various Grand Parlors, and
finally eliminated in the prohibitory leg
islation of the Grand Parior at Chico in
1890, which adopted the amendment pro-
hibiting the granting of charters to Pc
tltioners outside of California.
The Grand Parlor at Woodland in 1857
adopted an amendment providing that
prior to the institution Of new parlor,
the petition for charter for the same, to-
gether with the names of all persons to be
initiated or admitted on the night of insti-
tuition, must be submitted to all the par
lors situated in either Of the cities herein
dIter ueSlSIateu, at ieaSC one week prior 10
the institution. No charter shall be granted
the applicants without the recommends
ton OF three-fourths OF all the parlcrs in the
district. This clause shall apply only to
the cities of San Francisco. Sacramento,
Stockton. Oakland and Los Angeles"
The Grand Parlor at Chico adopted an
amendment that "neither parlor nor the
mem bers thereof shall use the name OF the
parlor or order or any portion thereof in
giving picnic or excursion on Sunday, ex-
cept upon obtaining a special dispensation
from the grand president"
The Grand Parlor at Marysville adopted
the amendment Familiarity known as the
temperance clause: ANY parlor pro-
viding, directly or indirectly, any liquors,
spirituous or malt, at any entertainment,
banquet or supper, or at any celebration
given under the auspices of the order,
parlor or parlors, shall be subjected to
such penalties as the Grand Parlor may
determine upon"

cially adapted to the growth of this fruit
and what are not. resulting in the destruc-
ton Of many orchards which have been
planted indiscriminately, under the i'm
preston that the rrune would do well any
! where.
The past year has been productive of
great harmony on the part of our fruit
growers, resulting in their organization
into associations for the purpose OF regu-
lating the marketing of their products.
The benefits derived from cooperative ac-
ton have been apparent in the work of the
older organizations-tbe California Fruit
Union, the Orange-growers' Union, the
Santa Clara Fruit Exchange and other
local organiZations-and the action of
these bod les has made evident the neces-
sity for an association having a wider
scope, and the California Fruit Growers
and Shippers Association has been the re-
suit. The outcome of this cooperative
movement will. without doubt. ultimately
be general organization of the fruit-grow-
ers OF our State for the purpose of extend
ing our markets, guaranteeing our prod
ucJs and obtaining the best prices possible
for our crops, while furnishing them to the
consumer at fair rates. The advantages of
these organizations are evident. No indi-
vidual can WELD the same influence than
an organization can, and the larger that
organization the wider its influence. If
the fruit-growers of our State can be made
to work in harmony for their own inter-
ests, the great questions of markets and
transportation will soon be settled, and all
fear of overproduction in any line will
vanish.
