SALINAS, MONTEREY COUNTY, CAL.
~ Il never have met more enthusiastic
class of people than did in Salinas, and,
in fact, all through Monterey County. One
of the most pleasing gentleman with whom
I talked is Mr.. George Perrini. He told
me that he had heard of many remarkable
cures that had been effected by the use of
joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla, and that he
had occasion to prove this to his own ad-
vantage.
Some time ago his little daughter, Efie
Perrini. was covered with small sores. A
bottle of joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla was
bought and very moderate doses were given
to the little girl. Before the entire bottle
was exhausted all the sores had disap-
peared and Effie got better. She continued
to improve until she is now a perfectly
healthy child. He told me that he had
recommended joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla
to many people and that every one was
now praising the native remedy.

STOCKTON'S S FESTIVAL.
Native Daughters Arranging Pretty
Decorations.

STOCKTON, CAL, April 1.-THE Native
Daughters are laboring hard to make the
floral carnival next week success. There
was bevy of pretty girls and women at
the Pavilion all of this afternoon fashion,
ing garlands and streamers of evergreen
to festoon the big building. In the even
ing the committee of arrangements met
and discussed plans. Both of the con-
servatories will be let to exhibitors who
have choice flowers to display, and they
will be required to cover all the space
allotted to them with fora, 80 that there
will be no bare walls to mar the beauty of
the scene when the doors of the Pavilion
are thrown open to the public.
A floral lodge will be placed near the
entrance. 1t will be decorated with flow-
ers just before putting it in place, in order
that they may be fresh for the carnival
night. The arch, which is being made af-
ter plans furnished by Andrew Paterson,

the desk and then upon a renewal of
Faulkner's motion Allen was permitted to
proceed in order. He yielded to Gear, who
said he was willing to leave his record and
political conduct to the people of Iowa
who best knew him. He was sorry, how
ever, that he had been drawn into this
alteration, for it only verified the truth of
an old adage, that you could not Touch
pitch without being defiled."
Allen resumed his remarks at the point
where they had been interrupted, first
paying his respects to his amiable and dis
tinguished friend, the Senator from Iowa.
whom he loved with all the love of a son
for his erring father, and to his exceed
lngly amiable and conscientious friend
from Massachusetts,. who kept kindly
eye upon him SO that he should do no dam
gerous thing in the Senate chamber
Continuing his argument he contended
that Mr.. Weaver was not a confiscationist,
but man, than whom there was no one
in the country better equipped to dis
charge public duties; lawyer of distinc-
ton in many courts where some OF the
men in the Senate who sneered at him
would not be permitted to take back seat.
"The honorable Senator from Iowa and
my always amiable friend from Massachu-
setts never gave to this country the moral
force and intellectual power that has been
given it by James B. Weaver"
AS Allen was proceeding along these
lines he was interrupted by continued
laughter in the chamber and severely de-
nounced this conduct.
eve are not laughing at what the Sena-
ator says" replied Chandler, with appar-
ent sincerity, "but at the way in which he
says it,
Allen yielded to Chandler on motion
to proceed to executive business, but Hoar,
as he did not expect to be present when
Hill concluded his speech or when vote
was taken on the resolution, asked leave to
make few remarks on it. He thought
the resolution perfectly proper, ana sup
ported it. 1t did not as he understood IL
lmpute any wrongdoing on the part of
any official of the Government, and he
was surprised to find opposition to it. He
would like to know whether the Govern
ment had lost ten or more millions by
selling an issue of bonds to syndicate as
had been alleged, and why the money
obtained by the sale of the bonds had been
used for the payment of the ordinary ex-
penses of the Government.
Hill stated that on Monday he would
analyZe Hoar's remarks and answer them
at length. Hoar said he would be present
on Monday and he would be happy to re-
ceive any blast from the Senator. The
Senate at 5:35 o'clock adjourned uutil
Monday.

WON AN EDUCATION.
What Fayette Birtch's Hundred
Yard Score Meant.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, April IT,
When Fayette Birtch toed the chalk-mark
in the hundred-yard run at the Santa
Barbara racetrack to-day few of those
who looked on understood what the Win
ming or losing of the race meant to the
boy.
Small and slender, with thin, beard
less face, he looked mere lad in contrast
to his stalwart competitors. AS he came
flying along the track, a hands breadth,
foot, yard In advance of the others, his
pale face set, his eager eyes unseeing the
throng of people and fixed only on the
goal, he saw something more than the line
which marked the end of his course and
the small glory of reaching it ahead of the
other runners. He was running for an ed
ucation and knew that upon this race de-
pended his future career.
When young Birtch, high school Sc
nior in the Santa Barbara school, who had
never had days training in his life.
made record of 10 1-5 seconds last fall, a
famous college club wrote and offered him
a regular salary. This salary, while gen.
erous offer to an inexperienced Young
amateur, was still insufficient to pay his
college and personal expenses. If he could
lower this record he was we'll aware that
new and more generous offers would be
made.
A young runner with a record almost
equal to the worlds best is in demand in
these days, when it sometimes seems a
question whether the athlete or the scholar
is the more distinguished pr oduct of our
great universities.
This race was the first on the afternoon
programme. The herunners, perhaps trife
nervous, made their start little after
rather than upon the pistol shot, Birtch
and one other touching one hand to the
ground and throwing the body forward in
the approved fashion of the best runners
The day was disagreeable one and
windy. and although the young men had
their backs to the breeze it came in whirl-
ing gusts, hindering rather than helping
them. Among those at the track was q
writer on track athletics, who represents
eight Eastern sporting papers as thei1
Southern California correspondent, and
who has fair idea of track facilities.
He made critical examination of the
ground and. considering track and weathe,
together, declared that no man could DOS.

track. If one of them should 60 under

FIESTA DE LOS ANGELES.
The City of the Angels Donning
Carnival Garb,

LOS ANGELES, CAL. April 1.-THE
city is beginning to don its holiday clothes
preparatory to the opening of the carnival
next Tuesday. AS yet little decorating
has been done, but the work will be begun
vigor over Sunday. By Monday evening
the principal streets will be masses of red,
green and yellow.
The street decorations will be especially
fine. Frank Virgins, superintendent OF
the Chamber of Commerce exhibit, who
made such an enviable record as manager
of the Southern California exhibits at re-
cent international expositions, has charge
of this feature.
Thousands of palm leaves and miles OF
bunting will be used in beautifying the
line of march, while magnificent floral
arches will span the principal street inter
sections.
The pageant promises to be the most art.
istic and picturesque ever seen west of the
Rocky Mountains.
The parade on Wednesday afternoon
will be participated in by the entire
brigade N. G. G. Of Southern California,
marines from United States ships and
many uniformed societies. The floats in
this parade, typical of Southern California
resources, progress and development, will
be very attractive.
Most unique of all will be the Chinese
section, containing the big dragon, 800 feet
long, and the rich and gaudy trapplngs
from the Chinese theaters and iosshouses
in San Francisco and Los Angeles
The night parade Thursday evening,
typical of lands of the sun, will rival the
New Orleans Mardi Gras in artistic merit
and gorgeousness.
The sports at Athletic Park on Thurs
day will draw an immense crowd. Prizes
will be competed for by some of the most
noted athletes in the State.
The school children's parade and flag
raising on Friday will not be the least
interesting feature of the weeks festivities,
and the display of fireworks Friday even
ing will be par excellence.
Hazards pavilion, where the fiesta ball
is 10 take place. is being converted into a
veritable palace for the occasion. The
presence of naval and military officers in
full uniform will give eclat to the event
unusual to social functions in Los An
geles.
The hotels are already filling up with
fiesta guests, and the indications are that
the city will bstaxed to its utmost to ac-
commodate the throngs that will be here
next week.
