WILL GO TO SANTA CRUZ.
The Native Sons Secure Satisfactory
Rates of nsportation-Stock-
ton Next Year.

All indications in Native Son circles
point to walkover for Santa Cruz in its
effort to secure the Admission day celebra-
ton of the order. Stockton was promi-
nently mentioned for the honor a few
weeks ago, but the Native Sons of Stock
ton have decided to forego this years cele-
bration, and promise to be strong COM
petitors for the Admission day fete in 1885,
Grand Secretary Henry Lunstedt of the
N. S. G. w, said last night:
Santa Cruz has sure thing of it, in my opin-
ion, and from what l can learn there
will not be voice against her request when
the Grand Parlor convenes at Oakland on the
22d Many of the boys have been eager to visit
Stockton, but that city is not prepared for the
celebration this year, its attention now being
engrossed with the valley railroad project.
Hence there is not straw in the way of the
Santa Cruz idea. The chief difficulty in re-
gard to holding the celebration in Santa Cruz
the failure of the order to secure suffi-
GENTLY reduced rates of transportation. The
railroad demanded So so for the round trip
from this city, and such rate met with pro-
tests on every hand. Now the railroad COM
pany has come to terms with So rate and
this is generally satisfactory. Yes, without the
shadow of doubt, may say, the coming Ad-
mission day celebration will be held in Santa
Cruz.

CHANGED THE HOURS.
The Los Angeles Fiesta Train Will Not
Be Run on Its Original
Schedule.

The Los Angeles Fiesta excursion train
time schedule was changed yesterday by
the passenger department of the Southern
Pacific Company. No change will be made,
however, in the southwark trip, though on
the return from Los Angeles, and indeed
throughout the "itinerary," which begins
Monday night, April %, from the southern
city, many alterations in the original
schedule have been found necessary.
The train will reach Fresno at P. NJ, in
stead of 1890 P. M, on April "a, and be
thirty minutes later in leaving than first
timed at Tulare. Stockton will be left be-
hind at midnight of the 25th, instead of
the 18th. The train will be thirty minutes
behind ii me in arriving at Santa Rosa on
April 81. Four hours are given to visiting
Monterey, which will make the hour Of
leaving there 10 A. NJ. instead of A. NJ. on
April 80. This will delay arrival at Palo
Alto from 8 A. NJ. to l P. NJ, and departure
from Menlo Park from noon 10 3 P. M, and
arrival in San Francisco at Pm. instead
of noon on the same day.

HE WAS A FOREIGN CONSUL
And Therefore State Courts Had No
Jurisdiction Over Him.

And Therefore State Courts Had No
Jurisdiction Over Him.
Juan NJ. Luco escaped from an attach
ment for debt yesterday through the de-
cision of Judge Seawell, based on decision
of the Supreme Court. Luco was Consul
General of Chile for the United States of
America, residing in San Francisco, and
was sued on promissory note by Alfred
II. Wilcox, the amount of indebtedness
being $4,000. He was appointed Consul Oc-
tober 6, 1894, and his exequatur was issued
by the President of the United States De-
cember 10, 1894. The present action was
commenced February Is, 1895, and iudg-
ment entered March 49, 1895, for the sum
of $3.50 and costs.
Judge Seawell bases his belief that he
had no jurisdiction over foreign Consuls on
the decision of the Supreme Court of this
State in 1885, in the case of Miller VS.. Van
Loben Sells. The court then held that a
State court has no jurisdiction of any
action of law against Consul of foreign
Government; that the exemption of such
Consul from an action against him in the
State court is not personal privilege, but
is matter of jurisdiction, which is not
waived by the failure of the Consul to
plead it, and that such exemption may
even be taken advantage of for the first
time in the Supreme Court on appeal.

ONE QUESTION SETTLED,
The Chosen Friends Decide
Not to Reduce the Per
Capita Tax.
Interest To-Day Centers In the
Election of the Grand
Officers.

One of the most important questions pre-
sented at this session of the Grand Coun-
Gil of the Order of Chosen Friends was de-
cided yesterday, after discussion that oc-
cupied more than two hours. The discus
sion was brought on by motion to reduce
the per capita tax paid by the councils to
the Grand Council from 81 to 70 cents per
annum. The opposing forces were led by
s. M. Case for the reduced tax, and II. w.
Hutton for that now in force. Each side
had many able advocates, but the followers
of Mr.. Hutton finally won. Yesterday s
action settles this question until the next
session.
Earlier in the day another hot debate
arose, which extended over period of two
hours, over the question of annual or bien-
NAL sessions. Final action was postponed
until after the election of officers to-day
Many visitors had been attracted to the
meeting by the announcement that the San
Francisco initiatory team would give an
exhibition of its work This was done by
initiating six members into Sunset Coun-
Gil, the exemplitication being performed
under the instructions of Grand Assistant
Councillor Thomas O'Brien. AT the con-
clusion of the initiation vote of thanks
was rendered the team.
San Francisco was selected as the place
for holding the next session of the Grand
Council.
In the evening the officers and represent
tatiyes attended the entertainment and
dance at B'nai Birth hall, rendered them
by the councils of San Francisco and Ala
media counties.
Among the new candidates for grand
officers who have been announced within
the past twenty-four hours are w. H. Saw
age of San Pedro and George f. Mack of
lone for grand assistant councillor, Mrs.
Grons of Auburn for grand prelate, and
Mrs. c. Sweeney for grand warden. Will
liam McFadden has withdrawn from the
race for grand assistant councillor and has
entered the contest for grand vice-coun-
cilor.
To-day will see the largest attendance of
the session, as the election for officers will
take place, and there is to be spirited
contest for the three highest offices, two
candidates being in the field for grand
councillor, three for grand assistant coun-
cilor, and four for grand vice-councilor.
Neither S. G. Wallis nor NJ. Brickwedel
will have any opposition for recorder and
treasurer, respectively.

the position, but did not care much who got
the place so long as labor man was selected
By q Ia Dor man mean man who has been
identified with labor organizations in some
way at some time. Whatd does Fitzgerald know
about trade unions? He is q politician, and as
long as the Labor Bureau is run as political
Office so long will it fail in the objects for which
it was organized. What has Waits done? At
the last session OF the Legislature an effort was
made to do away with the Labor Bureau. why?
Because it is well known that its operation
under present methods is a farce. For this
reason no appropriation was made Tor the next
four years. This bureau costs the State over
$1,000 year, and it is a fact that no good at all
is derived from its existence. The story that
Budd made the appointment upon the 1ndorse-
ment of the Oakland and Alameda Federation
of Trades is not true. This body was asked to
indorse Fitzgerald but refused point blank
and John Gelder, president of the Oakland
Federation, so stated before O meeting of our
council only few nights since The appoint
ment viii work great hardship for labor.
W. F. Benoist, secretary of the Typo
graphical Union, said:
Having preferred the appointment of L. P.
Ward, l naturally feel little disappointed
over Hle Governors selection, but am not SUI
fciently chagrined to say that 1t Is an unwise
one, for the appointee is entirely unknown TO
me. He may be the friend OF the laboring
classes the Governor is reported as having rep
resented him. 1t appears to me though the in
dorsement Mr.. Fitzgerald is said to have re-
ceived at the hands OF labor unions is all a
fake.
did not know that he was a candidate for
the position till the selection was made, and
never heard OF any union recommending him
for the place. l hope the Governor has not
been misled in this matter, both on account
of my partisan feelings for l am
Democrat = and nay relation to trades.
unions In this connection, however, l may
add that l am for labor first and politics next.
The trades unionist will no longer take "soft
soap for his vote. and the politician who
thinks il will pass for currency in the future
viii be more mistaken than the person who
calculated on the product of q hen before it
had nested. There is great deal of thinking
that gets our support viii be the one who has
proven his friendship for us, not promised it,
no matter what party he may represent. The
ALLEVIATE our support from the executive or in
sure our united Endorsement at the polls, and
we propose to keep cases on his conduct during
his term.

The Certificate Forgers in Court.

The preliminary examination of Foss,
Ciprico, Sullivan, Greenwald and Katzauer, the
men charged with forging Chinese certificates,
was called before United States Commissioner
Heacock yesterday T. D. Riordan the prison
er's attorney, asked for continuance and
District Attorney. Foote opposed the motion on
the ground that the authorities at Washington
were complaining about the DELAYS in the case
Mr.. Riordan explained that it was impossible
for the defense to go on at that time, and the
Commissioner granted continuance until
next Monday afternoon.

A We11-Dressed Woman Jumps From
the Oakland Boat.

Passengers on the 10 P. NJ. Oakland boat
were witnesses of a tragedy last evening.
The vessel had just cast off her lines and
was about 500 yards from the San Fran
cisco pier when tall, well-dressed woman
rapidly advanced to the edge of the boat
and jumped off into the bay. After some
delay small boat was manned and
lowered, but no trace of the suicide could
be found.
Nobody on the boat at the time can be
found who was acquainted with the
woman, but gentleman who was seated
near her says that she was tall. above the
middle height of quiet demeanor, about
IS to 40 years of age, and dressed like a
person possessed of means.

Why Not More Businessl

The report that one Of the largest shoe
firms In Haverhill, Mass, contenplates
the removal of It's business to some other
city, where the probabilities of labor
troubles are less, may well suggest to our
citizens Che advisability of securing some
such business enterprise for Augusta. Al
ready the hustling citizens of Gardiner
are moving In that direction, and all will
wish them the most generous success
We have no doubt but what, with com
paratively small outlay the Allen block,
now lying idle, could be converted into
an excellent shoe shop. There Is reason
to believe that this building could be pur-
chased or leased for such purpose upon
very favorable terms Ii 1t were to be oc-
cupied by hustling firm of shoe manu-
features the benefit to our city would be
almost incalcuable. The class of help en-
ployed in these concerns Is both in dustri-
Gus and intelligent. They make good citi-
zens. In the cities where such factories
have been established for a term of year,
a considerable portion of them are home
owners. Augusta needs such an enter
prise, and with an earnest an concerted
effort on the part of our citizens we be-
lieye It can be secured. 1t Is no secret
that many manufacturers in Massachu
sotts are considering the advantages to be
derived by removal elsewhere. Ger
tainly Augusta should present as favor
able conditions to them us any city in New
England. 1t is II matter that may well
engage the attention of our enterprising
business men. In union there Is strength,
and with vigorous and concerted effort
there Is reason to believe that results can
be achieved that will be to the permanent
advantage of the city.

In the treatment of female diseases
men work from theory; and it is not to
be expected that they can treat as intel
ligently those complaints from which
they have never suffered, as woman
can who has made the organism and dis
eases of her sex life study.
Women afflicted with female diseases
are wise in communicating promptly with
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Their
distressed condition is due to womb
trouble, and their symptoms tell the
story.
