WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY.
At Ladies' Hall. Alma College

At Ladies' Hall. Alma College
Thursday evening of last week, after
supper the spacious dining room of
Ladies' Hall was profusely and taste
fully decorated by 1.-The Dorm. Devil"
under the direction of Mrs. Scott, and
Misses Gelston and Hunting. That is,
the ladies did the--and the young
men die the. Altogether the ef-
feet was enough TO make the patriotic
chiszle run up and down the spinal col
umn of any student. The large bay
windows on the east and west sides of
the dining room were gracefully draped
with bunting, and the four large iron
pillars in the room were wound with
it. Oyer the piano hung a large tat
tered flag which looked as If it might
have passed through all the battles of
the Civil War, but it hadn't, it only
wore itself out tapping from the cupola
of the main college building. En-
braced in its folds, on the top of the
piano, sat bust of Charles Sumner.
On the walls were portraits OF George
Washington, Martha Washington,
Abraham Lincoln, Daniel Webster,
L. s. Grant and VIM. L. Sherman, also
that historic picture, The First Prayer
in Congress. Little flags were con-
spicious everywhere. Each OF the
tables had its own quota OF riowery
decorations and altogether the scene
WAS gay and an inspiring one. AT
the early morning meal, before prayers,
My Country 'Tis of Thee" sponta-
neously burst from the lips OF all. AS
the dinner bell rang, before the girls
came down into the hall, the boys who
had assembled first began singing
Marching Through Georgia" and all
marched into their places to the tune
OF the good old war song. More pa
triotic chizzles. At supper time the
"deah guhls' not be outdone by any
body, all came down in Martha Wash
ingtOn costume with hair powdered and
done up high. If it is possible, they
even looked sweeter than on ordinary
occasions. The evening was spent III
social intercourse and In singing pa
triotic songs. 1t was indeed red,
white and blue day. Not the least
thing to be mentioned was the swell
dinner, with moulded red, white and
blue ice cream and cake with red stars
for desert. The walls of the dining
room looked so well ornamented that
Mrs. Scott will endeavor to secure some
portraits of interesting celebrities to
hang there permanently.

The further concession made by the
Fruit-Growers' Express as regards the re-
frlgeratlng of excess weight over "a 600
pounds makes a very important item in
the reduction of shipping expenses. Of
course these reductions could not have
been made had not the managers of the
refrigerating service succeeded in securing
a large reduction on the charges for dead
weight by the railroad companies. This
reduction, as explained by Robert Ora
ham, general manager of the Fruit-grow-
erS' Express, who is at present q guest at
the Palace, was effected by the following
agreement, viz: that the railroad COM
panies grant $50 per cent dead weight,
based on the load, charging in excess of
that weight 20 cents per 100. In other
words, car containing a load of "a, 900
pounds will be charged in freight for
10000 pounds only, at 20 cents 100, max
ing the carload rates $40 instead of $50 as
formerly. In further explanation of the
details of the new rates Mr.. Graham said:
Our company is having constructed large
number OF cars especially built for carrying
use by the Rock Island Fruit Express for the
past two years are the property of Armour q
Co., and as they have proven very satisfactory
during the period stated above the new cars
will be practically of the same construction,
but what Jew improvements are found neces-
sary will be made.
In referring to the tariff of refrigeration
charges would like TO draw your attention to
the material reduction on the old rates, vary
ing from $35 per car, Sacramento to Chicago,
to $50 per car, Sacramento to Boston, This
does not include all the reduction, as you will
notice in the circular that the rates quoted are
irrespective OF weight, as we will not charge
anything extra on excess over "a 900 pounds.
One other feature of the new tariff I would
mention, namely, the still further reduction
on cars that are forwarded with the ventilators
open to our main icing station at Truckee
Much OF the fruit shipped can be forwarded
without detriment in this way. In fact expert
ence leads me to believe that in some instances
where cars are loaded in the afternoon and can
be forwarded the same night the fruit is bene-
ited by the cool air blowing through the car
during the night
The average amount of reduction for the
years shipments would be over $500, 900, a
clear saving to the fruit-growers.

ROUGH ON SEALERs.
Eighteen Vessels Laid Up at Yokohama
Damaged by Storms ON the
Voyage Out.

The steamer City of Rio de Janeiro ar
rived from China and Japan at an early
hour yesterday morning, appearing little
the worse fol- her collision with the hidden
rock off Kagoshima. She was twenty-six
days from Hongkong and sixteen from Yo-
kohama.
News by the steamer confirms the loss of
the sealing vessel George w. Peabody, but
no further particulars of the wreck have
been furnished. The crew we're on their
way to Yokohama when the Rio sailed.
The vessel, however is a total wreck.
When the Rio left Yokohama there were
no less than eighteen sealers in port, among
them being the Matte 7. Dyer, Jane Gray
and the Winchester. All the vessels went
direct to Japan from San Francisco, and
all arrived more or less damaged, the trip
across the Pacific having been tempestu-
Gus one. The Winchester had 230 seals.

For Homemade Cigars.

In view of the fact that the community Is ap-
parently eager to patronize home industries
Cigar-makers' Union No. 22S therefore takes
the initiative and has called q convention of
delegates from all the cigar-makers' unions in
the State of California, to be held at San Fran
cisco on May and 6, for the purpose of
forming blue-lebel league. The object of the
label league is to disseminate information to
the smokers of this State so that they will at g
glance, when purchasing cigars be able to dis
Germ whether the cigars are the product OF
home industry or not. The basis OF represen-
tation to the convention will be one delegate
for each union and one for each fifty members
or ma jority fraction thereof. The convention
win be closed on Monday May 6, with mass
meeting in the evening at Metropolitan Temple.

price. Last year they got together and
jumped the price UP from about 81 so per
ton to Sc and even as high as s.. OF course
our business would not, could net, stand
anything like that and when they saw
that we could bring salt here all the way
from Sicily at an advantage it broke their
back. This year they have similar UNI
Outstanding to keep the price up, and we
find ourselves under the necessity of bring
ing salt from abroad.
''But there is another reason, and very
important one, too. We have found that
the salt furnished by the local men has
not been like the samples submitted.
When we pack our fish and send it East
we are told that the fish packed in San
Francisco salt seems all rightuntil it comes
to cooking, but after being cooked the fish
is tough. Some very fine samples of bay
salt have been submitted to US, but the
real article ITSELF as afterward furnished,
seems to have an unusually large quantity
of lime, magnesium and sodium in it, ana
what we want is salt. Now, this Sicily salt
is used all through the East. At Glouces-
ter it is the only kind used, and we find
that we must use this Trapani salt if We
expect market for our product"

CAUSED BY A TRUST.
The Union Fish Company Importing
Salt From Sicily-The Second
Cargo.

The cod-packing concerns of Lynde &
Hough and the McCollum Fishing Com
pany have again assumed an attitude
which, in commercial sense, must be con-
sidered hostile to the local salt manufacture
ers. For the second time they have i'm
ported salt from Sicily. Last year, about
this month, they received similar cargo
from Sicily.
AS in the case of the former consignment
the present supposed consignee was w. r..
Grace & Co., but the real consignee was the
Union Fish Company, under which title
the houses of Lynde & Hough and the Nc
Collum Company are cooperating.
President Hough of the Union Fish Com
pany gave some very plain reasons yester-
day afternoon why he has imported foreign
salt instead of doing as the late Manu-
factuters' convention would like local bust
ness houses to do-patronize home indus
tries.
THE bay salt would be all right" he
said, 'if if was as represented, and If the
saltmen would not combine to put up the

TWO WEEKS MORE TAKEN
The Attorneys Ask an Extension of Time
in the Fair Will
Case.

A curious crowd gathered in Judge
Stacks courtroom yesterday morning
anxious to witness the beginning of the
legal proceedings over the dead million
aires estate.
When the door opened, there was an
eager rush to gain points of vantage. The
legal profession, both in and out of the
case, was well represented.
Charles Fair came into court with his
attorneys, George A. knight and Charles
Heggerty. q
AS Reuben Lloyd entered, all eyes
turned to see whether the daughters OF
James G. Fair accompanied their attorney.
When two ladies dressed in mourning garb
came through the doorway, some one
whispered, "There they come" and all
eyes were turned to the entrance, but the
two were not the children of James G..
Fair. Neither Mrs. Oelrichs nor Miss Fair
appeared.
"The matter in probate of the estate OF
James G. Fair began Judge Slack, when
Attorney McEnerney arose to address the
court.
"I understand" said he, .that there is
another petition on file, that of DR.. Loving
