Annual Church Social.

The congregation of the Chris
tian church celebrated the first an
niversary of its existence last
Tuesday evening, the 9Th inst, by
a church social to members and
friends. The first part of the even
ing was taken up with brief devo-
tional exercises and a sketch of
the years work by the pastor. Re-
ports were read of the various de-
partments of the work; these
showed the church to be in
healthy condition throughout.
Pastor Garvin spoke hopefully of
the prospect of getting into the new
church building in the near future,
when the facilities for work would
be much enhanced in the matter of
room. Refreshments, consisting of
ice cream, cake, ETC., were then
served, and the remainder of the
evening spent in pleasant social
intercourse.

MISS HELEN DAUVRAY.
Clever Actress to Appear in This

Among those who will take part
are Miss Alice Rice and Miss Jes-

Gently arrived from the Colonies !;
this will be her first public appear
ance.
Miss Dauvray's excellent repu-
tation, both in England and Amer
lea, is a guarantee that she will
furnish something both artistic
and entertaining. In speaking of
her performance of the American
girl in her play "One of Our Girls"
recently played at the Columbia
theater, San Francisco, the Call
says: "She was most cordially
received and impressed herself on
the audience in a way all actresses
like to do. She carried the audi
ence away with the comedy, for
she has magnetism and one must
echo her laugh. She had one scene
in which she held the stage by her
self for long time in a way which
very few actresses could do"

no MORE THEATERS.
Chinese Residents Object to the
Leleo Scheme.

There is a large sized objection
coming from many residents of
Leleo on account of the scheme on
foot to build a new Chinese theater
in that district. These people be-
lieve that one theater is enough
and more than that they regard
the maintenance of a theater in
Leleo as more or less of a nuisance
owing to the noise and convivial-
ity of the crowds that often attend.
A petition has been presented
the Minister of the Interior to pre-
vent the construction going for
ward. The matter was brought
up in the House yesterday by Rep
resentative Robertson, and numer-
Gus Chinese residents will bring
every influence to bear to either
have the location changed or pre-
vent the building permit being is
sued.

Some of the people of Honolulu
are inclined to be somewhat skep-
teal regarding the powers attrib-
uted to Miss Abbott-owing to the
fact that a woman bearing a
like name had been exposed by
the American press as a fraud.
The truth of the matter is that
while Miss Abbott was abroad and
gaining fame throughout Europe,
mystifying kings, queens and pie
bians alike, an INSCRIPTIONS
woman availed herself of the OPP
portunity and assumed her name.
She attempted to perform some of
the tests which have given Miss
Abbott worldwide reputation, but
came to grief at the hands of Mel

The people may be assured that
Miss Abbott does all and more
than is claimed for her, the vari-
GUS exhibitions of her wonderful
power being convincing to all who
witness the tests accomplished.

MAX ING HISTORY.

The scene of interest at Chicka-
mauga yesterday was shifted to
Chattanooga, where there was
parade of the regular troops, of
the militia, and the school child
ren of Chattanooga. A national
salute of forty-four guns was fired
from Orchard Knob, the head
quarters of General Grant in the
battle of Chattanooga, and at the
same hour a meeting was held,
presided over by the vice presi-
dent of the United States, in
which addresses were made by
orators representing the city of
Chattanooga and the north and
the south.
In the evening there was held
a joint meeting of the surv ivors
of the army of northern Virginia
(Lee's) and that portion of the
Army of the Potomac that fought
at Chattanooga. This was the
complement to the meeting held
Thursday night when the surviv-
ors of the Army of the Tennessee,
Union, and the survivors of the
Army of Tennessee, Confederate,
met together, and were addressed
by General Howard, G enera1
Wheeler, and others.
OF the speeches nj a de la t
night, the most significant prob
ably is that of Governor Oates,
of Alabama. He was an officer in
Longtreet's corps, which came
from Virginia to participate in
the battle of Chickamauga. He
was speaking to Union and Con-
federate soldiers who fought in
that battle and in the battle Of
Chattanooga. In beginning his
address, he said, Soldiers of the
lost cause and successful defend
ers of the Union" and proceeded
to call attention to the remark
able events of the week on the
field at Chickarnauga. In the
course of his address he said:
A few months ago he saw unveiled in

AN OPEN LETTER TO MIR. WILSON.

Albany, N. u, Sept. 5, 1885.
Hon. VIM. L, Wilson, Postmaster-Gen-
eral, Washington, D. G.
DEAR SIR: Presuming that your re-
cent letter of August % last addressed
o the editor OF the New York World
and published in their issue OF August
%, was intended to shape public opinion
rs regards the economic conditson of
our country, and as it emanates from a
puclic official, deem it my privilege
toreply, and point out some OF your
glaring misstatements and fallacious
conclusions.
You speak OF the ''opening vista of
higher waves, cheapened necessities of
life, larger consumption at home. and
expanding markets abroad under lower
duties" as if such condition really ex-
lists, when the reverse is the actual
truth as the reported statistics coming
from the United States treasury more
than abundantly proves.
For instance, it is given out from Off
IS
cial sources as far as consumption at
home under lower duties is concerned
that we imported and consumed in 1892
sla6, 7s3,395 worth of coffee, tea, prec-
ious stones, wines, cocoa and cigars.
while in the fiscal year of 1895 the same
articles imported and consumed amount
ed only to slo6, 4a7, 1886, showing a de-
crease of $40, 355, ,7O9.
Imports of the above articles are con-
sidered as a true tes. of the condition
and purchasing power Of the people.
but to show that the consumption of
many other articles is slamentably short
take the statistics for the ten months
under the present law and compare
them withe same months OF 199l-92.

Confederate dead, that caused not only
many old Confederates to pause and
think how the mellowing influence of
time smooths down the wrinkled front
of war; but impressed the younger gen.
GRAFTON with the sact that the memo
.ries OF the great struggle now belong
alone to history. This great occasion
is a higher honor to the Union veteran
than to the Confederate, because he
was conqueror, and vet he INDUCES
no vain or offensive boast oyer his fall
en- rival. 1t is a high compliment to
the Confederate that his prowess and
patriotism are thus acknowledged. 1t
is patriotic and sensible on the. part of
the the Union veteran because it COM
mends the side he fought for to the
more generous consideration of the
younger generation OF southerners.
This much of the speech was in
the same spirit as that of General
Gordon and others who spoke on
Thursday. 1t is somewhat re-
markable that several of the
speakers in speaking of the south
ern people at the beginning of the
war used, consciously or uncon-
sciously, Lincoln's words: "De-
feuding the right as God gives us
to see the right" 1t IS remark
able, too, that in nearly all the
utterances at Chickamauga there
was an outsp n, ge nui II e
American pride, and an honest
pride, in the achievements of
Americans as Americans.
Chicago probably builded better
than she knew when she well
coined the distinguished repre-
sentatives of the Confederate
army at the time of the dedica-
ton of the Confederate monu-
ment at Oakswoods. We made
history rapidly during the war,
and we are making history now,
and are travelling very fast in
breaking down the lines of pre-
judice and in bringing the people
again to the higher levels Of
patriotism. Looked at from this
standpoint the meeting at Chicka.
mauga is one of those epoch
making events which stand out
in the history of nations like
beacon lights or pillars of fire. II

those who fought against eact

IT EMPLOYS MANY HANDS.
Other important Manufacturing
Enterprises Expected to Fol-

STOCKTON, CAL, July 22.-I. r. Will
bur, the right of way agent of the Valley
Railway, states that the proprietors OF the
Oakland jutemill have decided to remove
their business to this city.
The lutemill employs from 400 to 600
hands, and it is understood that nearly all
of the employees will be whites. Boys and
girls, for the most part, will be given jobs,
but it will require also number OF expe-
rienced men as overseers.
The mill manufactures various kinds OF
bags and Irvine, and as most of the work is
done by machinery the labor is not heavy.
1t is understood that the contemplated
removal of the mill to this city is 4 direct
result of the Corral Hollow Railway pro-
ject. Some time ago the proprietors of the
jute works were talking of bringing their
business to Stockton, but they wanted this
city to give them bonus. Now they are
anxious to come without bonus, on &C
count of the cheap coal supply which the
building of the Corral Hollow road will
insure This is the first industry to be
attracted here by the new road, upon which
Stockton relies to build up her manu-
factories. 1t is expected that as soon as
the road is actually begun a number of
other important manufacturing enterprises
will be drawn hither.

Load of Buckshot.
STOCKTON, CAL, July 22.-John Mohr
of Mohr's Landing brings the story of the
shooting of burglar at Byron this morn
ing at o'clock. For the past few weeks
there have been several attempts to rob
the general merchandise store of w. HI.
Johnson there, but each time the
burglar has been disturbed and once he
left his tools behind.
Last night it became known to Holway,
who keeps the hotel at Byron, that some
one was in the establishment, and he sum-
moned a number of citizens to assist him
in capturing the burglar. All were well
armed and surrounded the building.
A man was seen to let himself down by
a rope from one of the upper windows, and
as soon as he alighted Holway called upon
him to halt Instead of needing the de-
mand, the man disposed of what he had
in his hands and fed. AS he started away
Holway gave him the contents of his gun
in the back. The gun was loaded with
buckshot aud most of the leaden missiles
took effect on the burglar.
When he was picked up he was found to
be severely wounded and at last reports
grave doubts were entertained for his re-
covery. The wounded man is stranger
to the residents of Byron, and says
his name is James Donnelly. 1t is
thought he is new hand at the business.
A hunt was made for supposed partner
in crime, but without results. To-

Remarkably Good Results to the GrO'cers

ORANGE, Call, July &c. G. McKin-
ley, secretary of the Orange County Fruit
Exchange, states that the last orders for
the season will probably be placed with
the association of Orange County this
week, and that the work will result in a
cleanup of all fruits contracted to the as
ISOLATION except some standard seedlings,
for which it will be impossible to find a
market.
Mediterranean Sweets have gone off at a
lively rate during the past two weeks at
prices that will net growers 30 cents per
box. The fruit as a rule is in splendid con-
dition, which speaks well for the keeping
qualities of Orange County fruit.
A rebate of $4,000 has been received by
the executive committee from the refriger-
ator car service and has been distributed
among the different exchanges. Orange
County's share of the sum is 1925 60. These
rebates will amount to $4,000 for the sea-
son, and $1,000 from this source will reach
the pockets of Orange County growers.
Heretofore the commission men pocketed
these rebates and they added considerably
to their ''sure-thing" profits.

Belli left his quiet country home near here
yesterday for a trip to MADEIRA, and when
he returned he found only one OF his chill
dren home, who informed him that his
mother had left with the other child.
On the table he found a note which was
left for him, in which his wife recited the
wrongs that she had been subject to, and
the misfortunes she had endured while
she had been living with him, and added
that she did not care to see him again, and
that she was equipped with $3.50.
Belli is extremely DESTROYS of obtaining
his child, and will take legal steps to Sc
cure it. 1t is only eight months ago that
his wife secured divorce from him, and
about six weeks afterward reconciliation
took place and they were remarked.
