The time was, and not remote, when
Mrs. Lease was a politician and
advised the Kansas farmers to raise
more hell and less corn. They evident
ly followed her advice, and she was
obliged to turn preacher so as to check
the logical result Of her political doc
trine. Her cry now is less hell and
more contribution via corn or any
other road.

a RUMoR THAT FLOATS.
Looks Like The FinOlS-MOritz Lipman Heard
FrOm-shsrt on BonrSSS.

A prominent and generally accredit-
ed Boise gentleman claims to have
seen a letter from the firm of New
York brokers' of which Moritz Lipman
is a member, and which letter was
subscribed to by said Lipman, in which
Woodwork, of recent railroad emin-
once, is alluded to in terms of cordial
disparagement. In fact, Lipman afore-
said, refers to Woodwork, party of the
second part, as u well developed fraud.
Woodwork, it is alleged, represented
to Liptnaa and associates that immense
bonuses had been subscribed by San
Francisco and other California cities
towards the Boise, Butte and Califor-
mia railroad, but when Woodwork was
urged to produce evidences, he failed
materially and could show up nothing
but $4,000 In provisional promises
made by the generous people of Cald-
well. Moritz Lipman realized that the
spirit of Caldwell deserved encourage
ment, but he felt that $4,000 of its pa
per was rather contracted base upon
which to inaugurate the construction
of the Boise, Butte and California
TraRscontinental Trunk railway, to
cost approximately 100000 in gold.
But it worked in Lipman's head
that it was good railroad pro-
position so he instituted inquiries
as to alleged preliminary surveys
which had, according to Woodwork
been made. It developed that
the only preliminary survey, of cOnse-
quence, recorded, was made by man
who went over the country carrying a
chain and shot gun, followed by
good setter pup. 1t also unfolded that
q preliminary survey would comfort
ably cost half a million dollars, and
that the bonuses actually In sight would
barely cover cost of mess kits. So,
operations on the Boise B. s. G. 4. r.,
are temporarily suspended, pending
deficit Of $4,000 available funds. It
doesn't follow, however, that the pro-
ject is abandoned, but merely suggests
that as a substantial and utterly relia.

OVERDUE At VICTORIA,
The Steam Schooner Mischief
Believed to Have Gone
Down.
It Started on a Short Trip Down the
Island Coast Four Weeks
Ago.

VICTORIA, B. c., Jan. 3.-Local navi-
gators have given up as lost the steam
schooner Mischief, Captain H. R. Foote,
which started from here on a trip down
the west coast of Vancouver Island nearly
four weeks ago. Under ordinary circum-
stances the steamer should have returned
within ten days at least. Walker, the
owner of the vessel cannot account for the
delay, but expresses the opinion that she
is storm bound somewhere along the
northern coast of the island.
He was considerably disconnected yes
terday when no report came of the
schooner, for, so far as known, the past
few days have been sufficiently mild TO al
low her to reach Victoria from the most
northern end of the island.
The Mischief left here carrying a heavy
cargo and several passengers for coast set
Elements. Her most northern port of call
was Anatsmo Sound, and it is between this
place and Chucklesett that she was last re-
ported. At the latter place she secured
forty Indians for sealing schooners here,
who, after waiting in vain nine days for
her return, took passage in the Maude, ar
irving here Monday night.
Those aboard the Maude say frankly
that they believe that the steamer has
gone down with all on board in one of the
innumerable gales OF recent weeks

SAN DIEGO GUARD ROW,
Militiamen of Company A Re
fuse to Consolidate With
Company B.
They Are Working to Secure Recog
milton as an Independent
Organization.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Jan. 3.-The con-
solidation of Companies B and a of the
Ninth Regiment, n. G. c.. as an accom-
plished fact seems yet to be somewhat in
the future, and there are excellent pros
poets for q bitter fight. Theoretically,
Company A no longer exists, inasmuch as
official orders were received from the ad-
iutant-general of the State, some time ago.
ordering Company a to be absorbed into
Company B. the new company to be
known as Company B of the Seventh Regi-
ment, with the same officers as those OF
Company B of the Ninth.
But it appears that Company A does not
care to disband, and for that reason fric-
ton has ensued.
After receiving the orders the first move
made by Captain r. V. Dodge of the new
company was to write letter to Captain
Spileman of the disbanded company, max
ing him formal request for the property
of his company.
a reply 10 this note has never been re-
ceived, and 1t is now reported that he and
his father, Colonel Spileman, who was
formerly commander of the Ninth Regi-
ment, are now and have been for some
time in correspondence with high officials
in San Francisco and Sacramento in an
effort to have the members of Company A
reorganized into an independent company
with the old officers.
The result OF this correspondence has
not been learned, bui it is not believed that
the move of the Spilemans will be success
full
On the other hand, the members of Com
pany A protest vigorously against CONSOLE
dating with Company B. and insist on
maintaining their organization. Cap
tain Dodge of Company B has referred the
whole matter to Brigad ter-General Last of

CLAIMS PASSED UPON.
State Examiners Again PrHne Down Those
of Sheriff Enthusiastically SCOTS
Letter.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Jan 3.-The first
matter taken under consideration by the
Board of Examiners this afternoon were
the claims of Sheriff Johnson of Sacra-
mento County for the transportation of
two persons to the Whittier Reform
School.
These claims were deemed excessive, and
Deputy Sheriff Schwilk appeared and
stated thatin one case he had missed a
train by being late. Governor Budd said
that the State should not be compelled to
pay for his negligence, and one days ex-
penses we're curtaled and the claims laid
over for future investigation.
Upon the suggestion of Secretary of
State Brown the secretary of the board
was instructed to prepare a list of all in
mates of State asylums, the date of adj
mission. and their ability 10 provide for
their personal maintenance. This was
done with view of reducing the cost of
maintenance Of the institutions as in the
future friends of inmates who are able to
support them will be compelled 10 do so.

To the horse-owners' demand for larger
purses and the abolition of guaranteed
stakes, an emphatic negative was given. In
behalf of the track-owners, some Oakley
and Latonia secrets were revealed. 1t was
alleged that it cost $50, 600, equally divided,
to run these tracks.
Fifty per cent OF the attendance, ii was

horses entered were out OF their element.
They were buggy horses and belonged in
the delivery wagon stakes. At least that
was Oakley's experience.

into camp by offering to sell his stock, and
Colonel Barnes waved red flag in front of
the association and served notice that IN

.FRESNO'S CITRUS FAIR.
A Winter Exhibit Of Fruits
Opened in the Valley
County.
Magnificent Displays of California
Products Arranged in Unique
Designs.

FRESNO, CAL, Jan. 3.-The Fresno
County Citrus Fair opened most auspic-
iously this evening at O'Clock, when it
was given over to the public. This is the
first citrus fair ever held in Fresno, and
naturally there was somewhat of crush
when the doors of Armory Hail, in which
the fair is held, were thrown open.
The scene that greeted the visitor was
truly brilliant one. Many and varied ex-
hibits OF fruit, lastly arranged and literally
decorated with foliage and pot plants,
were effectively brought out in the glare
Of arc and incandescent electric lights,
which were well supplied throughout the
spacious hall.
The display is considerably larger than
was anticipated and consequently the hall
is somewhat crowded The exhibits
which consist chiefly of oranges, are in
many cases Of very artistic designs. The
fruit, considering the lateness Of the sea-
son, is of good quality. Navels are the
predominant variety. There are several
good exhibits of lemons, lines and pome-
los.
The fair, to say the least, does the
country and her live citizens much credit
One fact is clearly demonstrated and that
is that Fresno County we'll in few years
be as well known for her citrus fruits as
for her ralsins at present. Citrus fruits
find most luxuriant home in the thermal
belt of the county, which is located in the
Eastern part at the lower portion of the
foothill region.
For three hours crowds wandered
through the maze of exhibits, and on
every hand was expressed satisfaction,
and even wonder, at the exhibits. The
displays Of George c. Roeding and f. G.
Berry, both extensive citrus fruit growers
in the county, attracted considerable at
tention. Berry's exhibit occupies the
center OF the hall, and is circular in shape.
Roeding' s exhibit is semi-pyramidal, being
built against the north wall of the hall
Oranges, lemons lines and pomelos are
neatly slowed in among a profusion of
palms and other pot pia nts.
One feature of the lair is "Rebekah at
the Well' in the center of f. G. Berrv's
exhibit serving lemonade. The proceeds
go toward the support of the county
orphanage. Miss Lizzie Thorne oficiated
as Rebekah.
1t was al first the intention to close the
fair tomorrow night, but the managers
have been so encouraged that it is thought
it will continue until Monday night at
least. A literary and musical programme
is provided for each evening, Professor D.
1. Fowler delivering an extended address
this evening on "Olive Culture in Fresno

Los ANGELES STEAL,

Are Accused Of Swim

CHARGES OF A PATRON.
Claims They Sold His Property
and Appropriated the
Proceeds.
HE HAS SUED TO RECOVER,
Worthless Lots in a Wisconsin Town

Realty.
He HAS SUED TO RECOVER.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Jan st is a
tale of woe that A. w. Eames tells in a
fourteen-page complaint which be filed
tins morning against George II. Green r.
Nj. Todd and others in the Superior Court.
Games states that last summer he was
the owner of a three-story building on
Main street, running back to Alameda
street, and 1t was worth $40, 900. He had
1t mortgaged to bank for $1,000, and there
was nearly $500 interest due. The bank
was pressing him for the money and be
could not pay it. Green q Todd were in
the real estate business, and he went to
them in his troubles.
They proposed that he should deed the
property to Green, and they would pay
him 500 to meet immediate needs, take
care OF the mortgage and interest, then
sell the property and give the plaintiff
half of what was realized above the mort
gage and interest. This was done.
Presently it came TO pass that Green
wanted Eames to make quitclaim deed
to the Crescent Milling Company, and he
did it without consideration. After that
Green & Todd told him that they
had sold the property to the Ores
cent Milling Company, and had got
$3.50 worth of their capital stock
and ten lots in what they called the
city of Superior, Douglass County, Wis,
Green told Eames that they were about
to trade these lots for a ranch near
Perris.
The lots, he said, were worth 500 each,
and if he did not trade them within GER
tain time they would give him $500 for
his share of the lots. Meanwhile they
would deed him the lots as security. This
was done also.
Then, in order to have an easy way of
binding the $3.50 worth of capital stock,
they offered Eames 500 cash for his in.
terest, which he accepted so that what
Eames got for his equity of redemption
was 5000 in cash and the lots in the city of
Superior.
1t turned out, so the complaint saws.
that Todd IL Green received $3.50 cash and
$4,000 worth Of stock in the milling COM
pany for the property. The milling com.
pany was willing to pay $3.50 for the prop
erty, and $4,000 of this sum was paid in
stock, which was divided between Green
and Todd. The ten lots in Superior were
not in the milling company's consideration
at all. They come from Green & Todd.

SANTA CRUZ FATALITY.
A Young Woman Struck and Instantly Killed
by Rock Thrown Up by
RInsf

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Jan. 3.-Miss
Louise Helena Santiago, daughter of
Santiago, an Indian well known through
out Southern California, and the only sur
viving daughter of a very large family, lost
her life in a peculiar manner this after
noon.
The young woman lived with her only
brother, Juan Santiago, in small house
near the banks OF the San Lorenzo River.
inns afternoon gang of men were blast
ing stumps out OF the river bottom. Miss
santiago was standing in the doorway of
her home when q rock, thrown by the
force OF the explosion, struck her in the
center OF the forehead, splitting her skull
open and causing instant death.
The funeral of the unfortunate girl will
take place tomorrow, and the Coroner will
hold an inquest on Monday.

Directors for 1916 was taken under consid-
Grafton. This was for material and labor
IN erecting the rock-crushing plant, and
among the items appeared the charge OF
w. *. Eckert, as supervising and control
Ing engineer, for $225 for three months
services. Charles Matbeson also claimed
salary OF $3.50 per month as head fore
man.
Commissioner Manson was called before
the board and stated that Matheson super
vlsed the work on the plant, and was also
employed on the construction of the pris-
on addition. In his opinion his salary
should be divided between the rock-crnsh-
ing fund and the State prison addition
fund.
Secretary of State Brown called for the
prison payroll, for the purpose OF asCer-
tanning whether Matheson drew any addl-
tional salary other than the So per day,
but as this document had not been re-
ceived the claim was laid over.
Sheriff Whelans claims for transporta-
ton of prisoners received pruning down,
because he persisted in refusing to attach
receipts for hack hire to his claims, in
direct conflict with the provisions of the
board
His claims in the sum of $735 rs suffered
a reduction of $155 80, and Governor Budd
positively declared that from this time on
the board would allow only one days
salary for deputy In the transportation
of prisoners to any Institution when the
journey could be made within twenty-four
hours.
The journey from San Francisco to the
Napa asylum consumes only about three
hours, yet it has been the custom for pa
tients to be forwarded in the afternoon, the
deputies returning the next day and claim
ing two days remuneration from the
State.
Sheriff Whelan. when questioned as to
the cause, stated that there were no &C
commodations in the city for retaining
insane prisoners over night, but Governor
Budd declares that in the future they must
be retained, even if the city be obliged to
erect suitable quarters.
Winfield. Scott, secretary of the defunct
Viticultural Society, sent in g communica-
ton stating that the clause in the bill
passed by the late Legislature providing
for turning the property over to the State
University was unconstitutional, in that
the appropriation of $4,000 to the regents
for carrying out the work was not ex-
pressed in the title.
The Governor declared that the humor
of this letter lay in the fact that Scott
drew UP the bill which he now declares
unconstitutional.
A complete entry of the State property
was also submitted by Mr.. Scott.
