CALLED SUDDENLY. :
Rev. Lewis De Lew Fatally Attacked
YESTERDAY.

The many friends Of Rev. Lewis De
Lew were shocked and panied yesterday
morning when the sad news reached
them of his death few hours before
Mr.. De Lew was seemingly in his usual
health when he retired on Wednesday
night, but was suddenly and fatally at
tackled by illness about 1 o'clock yes
terday morning, and soon expired.
Mrs. De Lew was in San Francisco at
the time visiting their daughter, Mrs.
Henry Beamer, but there were other
members of the family at home, and
everything possible was done for Mr. De
Lewis relief. Mrs. De Lew and Mrs.
Beamer received the heart breaking
news of his death by telegraph in time
TO take the morning train for this city.
Deceased was but 81 years Of age
For nearly two years past he has been
rector OF the Episcopal Church in Wood
land, Yolo County, though the family
fome was in this city. After the de-
parture OF Rev. G. A. Ottmann he Off
clated on several occasions in st. Paul's
Church here. He was a native of Hol-
land, and was educated at Uticht, Ley
den and Oxford. He came to the United
States in 1871, as a minister of the
Dutch Reformed Church, in which he
served at Detroit, Mich, subsequently,
uniting with the Episcopal Church. His
Iabors were confined to Michigan, Mary
land, Oregon and California.
The funeral will be held at 3 O'Clock
this afternoon from the family resi-
dence, 1922 H street.

was given that would startle anyone
who read it. It showed that the adul-
teration Of food has been carried to
such an extent that scarcely an article
of food has escaped. For instance, 1t
was found that thirty-two different
kinds of leaves have been doctored up
and sold for tea.
The report of the House Committee
that the widespread depression among
farmers had been augmented By the
adulteration of food products, which
cheapened their productions.
The only remedy for this state of
things is the passage of national
pure food law; the passage of laws by
the several States. to correspond with
it, and personal effort in securing the
passage and enforcement Of these laws.
Major Berry offered a resolution that
it is the desire of the convention that
the next Legislature pass pure food
law.
The resolution .was adopted and re-
ferred to the Committee on Resolu-
tionS.
Mr.. Berwick said that he had been
taught that example was better than
precept. He still saw an occasional box
of apples with a few good ones on -op
and the rest worrny. He would like TO
have a law passed compelling the fruit
raisers to keep at home that fruit
which is only fit for hogs. He would
like the fruit raisers to set a good ex-
ample to the grocer.
California fruit industry from
commercial standpoint" by B. N. Row
ley of San Francisco, was the next
paper. He spoke of the fact OF the
shipping of inferior fruit to market,
making a glut and depreciating prices.
An essay ON Irrigation to develop
the size and quality of deciduous
fruits" was read by Professor Hilgard
of the State University, and was very
interesting and instructive.
Professor S. NJ. Woodbridge read
paper on "The Eucalyptus" dilating
on the excellence and various good
qualities of the tree.
The convention adjourned till 80 a.
m. to-day.

THOROUGHBREDS.
Several Rare Additions to the Rancho
del PasO Stud.

The Rancho del Paso in this county.
the largest breeding farm in the world
is constantly adding to its fame and its
stock Of thoroughbred sires and brood
mares.
AIT the great sale by Easton in New
York yesterday John Mackey, Mr.. Hag-
gins Superintendent, purchased Can
dlemas (brother to the famous St.
Blaise), for which $4,000 was paid. In
addition Mackey also bought imp. Or
der for SIG, 600; Victorine, nine-year-
old brood mare. dam Of Ornament and
Whyota, for $4,000, and a fourteen
year-old stallion by Prince Charlie for
$4,000. The brood mares brought from
5000 to $4,000 each.
These will be great additions to the
breeding stock at the Rancho del Paso,
and their purchase by Mr.. Hagein
shows that he has confidence in the fu-
ture OF thoroughbred breeding. The
stock Of high-class runners is now very
low in this country, but from such royal
blood as the great Sacramento stock
farm boasts of there should come some
rare racehorses.

EVENING SESSION.


When the convention assembled in
the evening President Ellwood Cooper,
by special request read an essay on
''The Evils of Adulterating the Food
supply" by Mrs. Ellwood Cooper.
So long as consumers depend upon the
dealers, or labels, she said, so long will
they be imposed on. Before the adul-
terating period food had settled value.
now it is different. About four years
ago the retail grocers of New York City
held a convention to decide what to do
IL relation to adulterated foods. They
decided not to interfere, SO long as the
adulterant was not hurtful, but they
never took any pains to ascertain what
the adulterants were, evidently look
ing more to profit than to the good Of
the community.
A list of the poisonous ingredients
used in adulteration, as ascertained
during the debate on the pure food bill
that passed the United States Senate,
The record-union., 1896-12-04


~. Nitrogen. phosphoric acid and pot
ash are needed constituents in some
shape or other.
Pure potash is not available: first, be-
cause 1t is too expensive. and second
because IL has to be kept in naphtha, as
it takes fire when exposed to water. It
is combined with other substances,
however, and then makes excellent COM
merical fertilizers. If we do not know
just what ingredients are lacking in the
soil by trying the different substances
the orchard viii answer the question
for u.s.
There is one way by which we can
keep up the general efficiency Of the
land. We know that a certain crop
Of lemons or oranges takes from the
land certain amount of each of the
three ingredients needed. If we take.
therefore. the indicated number Of
pounds of potash of phosphoric acid
and of nitrogen. we viii know that the
orchard IS being kept up to it's pro-
ductive capacity. The essay was a
very interesting and instructive one.
Major Berry took issue with him. on
the ground that he was theoretical
and not practical. He took A very
pessimistic view of the good that had
been accomplished by this and pre-
ceding conventions and the amount Of
information gained at them by the
growers. He urged that action should
be taken by the growers to have the
State establish a school for practical
instead Of theoretical instruction in re-
gard TO agriculture and horticulture.

Company C.

At the request of Adjutant General Schwartz, Captain Bird and Lieutcn ant Piper will retain their commits sions until the first of the year, when the adjutant general, in person, will visit Nogales ard arrange to fill the vacancies and put the company upon substantial basis. In this connection it is not amiss to say that if the citi- zens of Nogales want to retain their security and protection they have heretofore enjoyed in having ready at hand a good outfit of most servicable arms and ammunition, there must be made better showing by the company than has been made in the past six months. Regularly have the officers attended at armory to conduct the weekly drills, to find there only a small squad of men. Of the full mini mum strength of the com pany present in the city not twenty-five per cent have turned out, and during the past two months there has not been show ing of ten per cent. Tiie present off cers have tired ol Lias kind of work, and will waste no more time. If any one else can command the attendance of the men and make the company proficient they can have the chance to try. But if Nogales wants to retain the protection of the arms of the ter ritory the men who receive the exemp- tions of enlistment must do something inreturn for those exemptions. Other wise the arms and ammunition will be sent to Flagstaff or Blsbee, both of which places want them, land the com pany mustered out.

pinal Republicans Celebrate.

Saturday evening of last week the Republicans of Arlzola, Casa Grande and vicinity, in Pinal county, cele- hrated the election of Mckinley & Hobart in most brilliant manner by giving grand Thanksgiving ball, which was so successful that it is still the theme of conversation among those who attended. Mrs. H. J. Cleye- land and Mrs..W. J. Schulze were the prime movers in the affair, and they put into the work of preparation a vim and energy which could not fail to sweep all before it and crowned their efforts with the most brilliant results. The attendance was large, invited guests coming from far and near, and all who came were most agreeably entertained. Hadleys hall was the scene of festivity, and the delft hands of the fair ma anagers, with lie aid Of eerps of capable assistants, had transformed it into bower of beauty. Rows of brilliantly yariegated Japanese lanterns were strung across the hall in various directions, and the soft and mellow light they shed cast an indescribable charm upon all ob- jects. Palm leaves, pepper branches. and other evergreens, were. taste fully festooned around the walls and formed a most effective back ground for the bewildering array Of bunting, flags and shields, harmoni- ously arranged and with fine effect.
 On one side of the hall, framed in a bank of lovely chrysanthemums was a life size portrait of the soldier-states- man whose name has been rendered most dear to all patriotic Americans Win Mckinley.
 The music was all that could be de- sired, and with twinkling feet the merry dancers chased the happy hours away" until the dawn called them to the duties of new day. An elegant collation. was served at midnight, and the tables were laden with an array of good things fully in keeping with the perfection which had marked every thing done to make the occasion a success.
 When the last strains oi music died away the happy participants separated for their homes, passing many hearty congratulations upon the success Of the event.

Catholic Fair at Tucson.

Elaborate preparations have been made for tue great Catholic Fair to be held at the new cathedral at Tue soa, beginning December sth and closing on tho evening of December l2th. The fair is given for the pur- pose of raising funds to complete the new cathedral. admittedly the largest and handsomest building in this part of the west. The fair will be opened by an address in Spanish by the Venerable Archbishop Salpointe, fol- lowed by one in English by the Right Reverend Bishop Bourgade.
 Already the managers of the fair have received an endless number or rare. beautiful and costly things. Some to be voted to favorite candi- dates and others to be won at rallies. These articles have been sent to the management from Mexico, California, New Mexico, Arizona and from other states. The collection is an attrac- ton in itself.
 The fair will be held in the new Cathedral Numberless booths are now in course of construction, no ex- pense or care being considered in Identifying them. These booths will be presided over and conducted by lovely young ladies of Tucson.
 Among them one will be devoted to the sale of dolls, another to flowers, another to candy, another will be pre- sided over by the seventh daughter or the seventh daughter of famous East India faraily. The new cathe- dral will be for the occasion thrown open to the public for the first time, aud its interior profusely decorated and artistically illuminated by elec- tric lights, thereby bringing out its vast vaults, Corinthan pillars and superb decorations.
 Each day from until 10 o'clock an elaborate Spanish dinner and also a dainty American supper will be served by the ladies. On the evening of the second and fourth days of the fail tableaux will be given under the direction of Miss Gertrude Hughes, Each evening there will be singing recitations and music.
 On the closing night short addresses will be made by Messrs Velasco and Rsondstadt in Spanish, and Messrs Franklin and Wright in English.
 We predict that this fair will be great success. Nothing like it has ever before been attempted in thS Territory. Already large numbers ol people from Sonora and different towns of the Territory have signifieo their intention of attending, and tS their entertainment and the success of the fair all the Catholic and Pro testant ladies of Tucson are deyotine their best thoughts and much Of theil time.
