The First annual Meeting of the Organ
izattoTL Great Success.
SAN JOSE, CAL, Jan. 26.-The first an
nual meeting of the Central California Ac-
climatization Association was held yester-
day afternoon in Judge Lorigan's court
room, President f. E. Spencer presiding.
Secretary Mackenzie read the list of
members of the executive committees of
the various counties, showing that there
had been two additions and one change
since the original list was published. W.
H. Lawrence and George W. LOWE are
additional mem bers of the San Mateo
committee, and Frank L. Robinson sue
ceeds A. P. Stanton on the Santa Cruz
committee.
The secretary's report showed that much
had been accomplished and altogether
was OF an encouraging nature.
San Benito and Monterey counties were
admitted into the association, and the by
laws were amended so as to admit any
other county that desired to come in. 1t
is understood that Contra Costa County
has expressed desire to join the organiz-
alton.
The sum of $40 was appropriated to pur-
chase such seed grasses as are the natural
food of the birds to be imported.
Game Warden Mackenzie stated that A.
G. Robinson, a dealer in San Francisco,
had presented the society with few car
dinals and nightingales. He also reported
that he would have $500 on hand by next
Wednesday. OF the list of birds to be Sc
cured not one is destructive to fruit. All
except two are songbirds. The exceptions
are birds of fine plumage.
S. H. Farmer of Gilroy stated he had
once secured thirty-five dozen Eastern
quail from Tennessee, but they all died
off in short time. He thought, however,
that pheasants viii do well in this section.
The adjournment was taken to meet at
the call of the president.
The number of pheasants in captivity in
this county at the present date is lbs pairs.
There will be twenty-five more pairs i'm
ported shortly, and all of the birds will be
liberated about the 1st of March.

SAN RAFAEL, CAL, Jan. 26.-Salmon
are being speared in the creeks near San

Report of Commissioner Montgomery o.,
the TESTIMONY Taken,

the Testimony Taken.
SAN JOSE, CAL, Jan. 26.-Commis-
sioner Montgomery to-day filed his report
of the testimony taken in the suit of
Fanny H. Holley against Daniel Holley
on the ground of desertion. They were
married in this city on May II, 1887, and
lived together for one year, at the end of
which time Holley deserted his wife.
Holley had spent the major portion of
his life on cattle ranges as vaquero and
his wife could give no other reason for his
unceremonious departure than that he
found city life distasteful and preferred
the rough lite of a cow puncher. There
are no children and no community prop
erty, and all the wife asks is an absolute
divorce.
