Officers.

Res olued, That as Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Women we will not patronize GRO
ceries that sell liquor or that order 1t for their
customers
This fat against corner groceries was
unanimously passed by the ninth annual
County convention of the San Francisco
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
yesterday. Mrs. Rose French introduced
it in a short but emphatic address in
which she told how, walking recently
through a poor neighborhood, she had
entered the empty cottage of wrctched
family that had been turned out for debt
and had found some stray leaves from
their grocery book lying about. 1.-THE
amount spent in food was just one-third
that which had been spent on whisky"
she said. and added the suggestion that in
weather. households than the wretched
half-starved one 10 which she had been
abiding the facility with which whisky
can be procured along with the groceries
often proves stumbling-block to the
weak.
A number of other leaders Joined in the
discussion on the corner-grocery question
and all of them were of the opinion that
though it might be a temporary con-
venience to send in haste to the nearest
grocery, when the larder happened to run
out, it was their duty as temperance
women to patronze temperance groceries
only, so they one and all pledged them
selves to Mrs. French's resolution, even if
they had to send a mile for an ounce OF
tea.

CEN, CAMPOS MISSED It,
General EZeta Once Promised
to Fight for Cuba's lnde-
pendenCe.
He Nav Meet Trouble In Mexico
Unless He Alters His AM
nounced Plans.

People who know all about 1t-who have,
so to speak, seen the whole deck-say that
General Gutierrez, down in San Salvador,
has no more real reason to fear the fire
eating Ezeta than has General Campos
over in Cuba.
Resplendent in gold lace and a choice
collection of Midwinter Fair swords the
Napoleon of San Salvador, as he styles
himself, sailed yesterday for the land that
don't seem to want him.
His announced programme as given out
is to land at Acapulco skate across Mexico,
organize an army and dash down through
the coffee plantations and frijole factories
and seize his country by the throat.
If he tries any such over-vigorous scheme
in Mexico he is likely to get into Mexican
jail, and all people who have been tn ere
say that it is not nice experience.
Mexico will not permit said Mexican
Consul Coney yesterday. ANY overt act
against Government with which she is al
peace. General Ezeta can enter Mexico as
any person may, but if ne tries to use the
country as background for San Sal
vador revolution he is going to get into
trouble"
1t perhaps is not generally known that
job at redhot lighting, accepted it, and
then withdrew. Friends of the revolu
tionary cause in Cuba asked him to &c
down there and help fight Spain s famous
general, Martinez de Campos.
1t was right after the trouble in the
courts here. Ezeta was freed largely
through the fundamentally of Senior
Quesada, the young attorney who came
from New York to help the Salvadoran
refugee. Quesada was then secret official
of the Cuban revolutionary party. He
urged Ezeta TO give to Cuba some of his
surplus fight, and Ezeta agreed.
Congratulate me-" said Quesada to a
friend who happened into Ezeta's room
one day about this time. Il have the
promise for Cuba of General EZeta's vic
torious swordr'
at is so,' said the general, flashing all
the fire he could from his eyes. 81 owe
my friend Quesada debt of gratitude. /
will join his people in the fight of oppres-
sion against tyranny"
Quesada was so overioyed that be settled
the generals board bill, and Ezeta left for
Mexico with the understanding that he
would get over to Cuba as fast as possible.
From New York Quesada heard that
Ezeta had returned to San Francisco and
since then they have not been good friends.
Some of the people here who came to
think the general considerable of fakir
say now that it is ust possible that he is
going to keep his Cuban engagement. ssHe
has given out that he is heading for San
Salvador in order to mislead the enemy
over in Cuba.
If both General Compos and General
Gutierrez are wise in war tactics they will
post double pickets until San Salvatore
Napoleon is again safely located.

FRUIT-GRoWERs' CONVENTION.
Orchardists Do Not Want to Go to San
Diego.

The next State Fruit growers Conven-
ton will be held some time in November,
but the exact date and place have not as
yet been decided upon. These matters
will be taken up by the executive commit
tee of the State Board of Horticulture.
Considerable pressure is being brought to
bear to have the convention held in San
francisco or Sacramento. At the last
meeting San Diego was favorably men
toned, but those who recommended that
place are now anxious to have the conyen-
ton held in this locality.
Since San Diego was mentioned several
questions have arisen that make it desir-
able TO hold the meetings further north.
| These questions are in regard to the East
ern auction sales of fruit and how to best
protect the fruit-growers. Secretary Lee
long has recently received several letters
from fruit-growers who want the conven-
ton held in San Franci SEQ or Sacramento.
d. t. Fowler of Fresno favors Sacra-
mento, which is in the center of the fruit
district, and he states that San Diego is
! too far away and the attendance would
necessarily be light because of the expense
in reaching that place. In conclusion he
writes: "Fruit-growers must be rallied and
more closely united in support of the pur-
poses of the Fruit-growers' and Shippers
Association"
W. J. Mccain of Placer County writes
in similar strain, and says the orchard
lists of Placer County favor Sacramento.
Frank Lyman OF Fowler, Fresno County,
adds his voice in favor of Sacramento.

outgoing president, Miss S. M. N. Cum

The three new unions reported as having

dent; Mrs. e. B. Stewart, recording secre-
tary; Mrs. Rose M. French, correspond
ing secretary; Mrs. L. P. Williams, treas
urer; Mrs. L. NJ. Carver, auditor.
Mrs. Nellie B. Eyster told Of her work in
the temperance cause in the public schools
during the afternoon session and Miss
Lila Fales described how even children in
the kindergartens can be taught abhor-
renee of intemperance.
Mrs. Spencer reported for the Indian
work and Mrs. L. n. Carver and Mrs.
Eyster urged greater activity along this
line of work.
A report of the labor department was
furnished by Mrs. Harnish and Mrs. Rose
French made a report on law enforcement
The latter lady said, 1--WE could get many
more convictions if we could do away with
the law that permits man convicted of
selling liquor unlawfully to appeal to a
jury"
The polyglot act, document in thirty
different languages and miles in length,
was described by Mrs. Athearn.. She
stated that great progress was being made
in securing signatures to this act in favor
of temperance, which had been signed by
all classes of people from crowned heads to
the poorest in the various lands where it is
being circulated. Just before the close OF
the convention committee was appointed,
consisting of Mrs. L. NJ. Carver, Mrs. H. H.
Luce and Mrs. Barry. to ask the county
board of the w. c. T. U. to draft a law
against the sale OF liquor IN corner gro
Ceries.
