HALF A CENTURY At SEA,
An Evening With the Veteran
Captain Morse of the
Alameda.
"REMINISCENCES OF A SEA DOG.
From the Forecastle of a Schooner to
the Quarterback of an Ocean
Liner.

Captain H. G. Morse was greeted last
evening at Golden Gate Hall by large
and fashionable audience, many of whom
had made voyages with the veteran sea
captain to or from the islands and the
antipodes. The captain seemed as much
at his ease on the lecture platform as ever
on his own quarterback. He spoke for
nearly two hours without notes. and kept
his hearers interested to the end in his

of half a century on the sea, from the time
he shipped on Yankee fishing schooner

SYMPATHIZE WITH DEBs.
Resolutions Congratulating the Re
leased Agitators Adopted by the
Local Labor Council.

The release of Eugene V. Debs and his
associates was the subject of considerable
discussion at the Labor Council last night.
Those present were all OF one mind. Their
opinions were voiced in the followIn reso-
buttons, which were adopted without
dissenting voice:
WHEREAS, Upon this day Eugene v. Debs and
ms associates have been released from their
long confinement in Woodstock JAIL and
whereas we believe that their incarceration
was in violation of that dearest right of free
mana trial before jury of his peers-and
whereas we recognize with grave forebodngs
that the unrestricted and arbitrary use by our
Judiciary of the illegallzed and unwarranted
injunction is usurpation OF authority,
fraught with imminent danger to democratic
institutions and privileges, and calling upon
the citizens of this Nation to at once and with
no uncertain voice pronounce their condemna-
ton of its further practice; therefore be it
Res0lped. That the Labor Council hereby ten.

congratulations upon their release from i'm

Horse Show Gossip.

Mohammed Ali Omar Khan, Nawab Of
Basoda, will more than likely occupy one of
the private boxes at the Polk-street end of the
Pavilion during the coming horse show. The
Nawab is exceedingly fond of the American
horse.
Now that Henry j. Croker has returned the
effect of his trip to New York, where he was a
constant attendant at the New York horse
show, is already being felt. Mr.. Croker did
and will not hesitate to use them whenever
they are needed to help make the coming show
grand success.

BACK on THE MIDWAY.
The Chinese Beauties Triumph over
the Jealous Chinese JOhnnies.


Atlanta, oct. 12-The nine Chinese beau
ties who were taken from the Chinese vii
lage at the exposition last week, on the
ground that they were brought to this
country and detained here for immoral
purposes, were before United States
Judge Newman to-day. Habeas corpus
proceedings had been begun at the in
stance OF two laundrymen in the city, who
declared that the women were held as
slaves at the exposition.
The girls. who said they were actresses
in China and hold similar positions in the
Chinese village here. testified that they
all came TO this country voluntarily. Their
engagement is for the exposition. they
stated. They get IS a week and are now
presenting tragedy, entitled THE Low
er's Revenge"
Leon Lam and Ewyang, the concession
aires for the village, sWore that the action
was brought by TWO jealous Chinese
"JOhnnies' here in Atlanta, whom the
girls had declined to know. As Ii ap
peared that the beauties came voluntarily,
and all expressing the desire to continue
their engagement, Judge Newman re-
manded the girls into the custody OF the
concessionaires.
The habeas corpus case has materially
interfered with preparations which the
Chinese have been making for a celebra-
ton of some kind on the Midway in which
an enormous dragon Is to figure.
