GLOOM PERHADES THE SENATE.
Tributes TO He Memory of tie Late
Senator ishdm G. Harris of
Tennessee.

WASHINGTON. d. c., July 9-The
Senate met to-day under the depressing
influence of the death of one OF its oldest
and most distinguished mem bers-Isham
G. Harris of Tennessee. The fact that the
desk and chair so long occupied by him in
the front row of the Democratic section
was undraped caused some comment and
inquiry, but the simple explanation was
that the Senate had not been officially
notified of his death.
Senator Bates announced The death of
his colleague, and gave a brief sketch OF
his public career. He spoke of him as
having been the last survivor of the his
toric war Governors of either side of the
great interstate struggle, and as having
heard the first Confederate reveilia and
the last tattoo. He offered resolutions
which we're adopted, expressing the pro-
found sorrow of the Senate and providing
for the appointment of a committee OF
nine to superintend the funeral ceremo-
MES tomorrow at noon in the Senate
chamb Der and TO accompany the body In
charge of the sergeant-at-arms to Tennes-
see. ana for an invitation to the House to
attend the funeral and appoint ike
committee.
These resolutions were followed by an
other set offered by CockrelI and agreed
to, extending Invitations to attend the
funeral to the President, Cabinet, Chief
Justice and Associate Justices of the Su-
preme Court, diplomatic corps, Secretary
OF State, the general com mmanding the
army and the senior admiral of the navy,
The Senate then, at 1925, as further
mark OF respect, adjourned.

o. II. Welburn, the suspended internal

acting Collector Bert NJ. Thomas yester-

a talk, and sat on sofa like any other

burn. L is deemed wisdom to wait until
the hearing, which is set for the 18th inst,
before specifically meeting the charges.
The talk about the wholesale removals
Of deputies and clerks in the office which
are rumored to follow soon has put a feel
ing of uneasiness and worry into the
offic9, but the talk is yet all talk" for a
statement about what will or will not be
done in the matter Of throwing out par:
OF the force has not yet come from any
competent authority here or in Washing
ton. Special Agent Thrasher and acting
Collector Thomas say that none OF the
working force are involved in the Norton
EN- beZzlement or in the case against w e.
burn. 1t is thought that if any removals
d 10 occur they will be made after the new
Collector IS appointed and installed Some
may then go for the good OF the service, -
in spite of the fact that by President
Cleveland's last order all are under the
protection of the civil service law. Every
last deputy and clerk is naturally a Dem
ocrat-and CIeveland's order continues
permanently in the service an otficeful OF
Democrats under Re publican admins
tration.
Many Republican politicians are hoping
for bunch of removals, forgetting that
even if dozen vacancies were made the
Collector would have to make all of his
appoin: ments rom the eligible list of
those who have passed the CIVIL service
examination, the list being provided by
the local Civil Service Commission.
Another forgotten circumstance is that
these administrative affairs are under the
immediate control of the Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury, who has been con-
tinued IN office from he Cleveland ad-
ministration and who strongly and
strictly upholds civil-service principles.
Every body interested is wondering what
the Mckinley administration will do
about civil service under Cleveland 8
sweeping order, but the telegraphic re-
ports from Washington that portions of
the treasury service will be Withdrawn
from the realm of civil service remain
vague rumors coming out of the air.
This is busy season in the local inter
nal revenue office anC inexperienced
clerks coming in would increase the con-
fusion of the office. Nothing but Presi-
Dental order opening the service to the
old patronage system will bring many
more changes to the Office, according TO
various wise opinions.

Conc udes Witt an Educational
RcuHd- UD'

MILWAUKEE,, WIS, July 9.-This was
the closing day of the National Educa-
tional Association Convention. The
gathering was the largest of the conven-
ton.
Short addresses on "E iucational
Roundup were in order. Superintend-
ent Carroll g. Pearce of Omaha came first
with Has the Heart of This People
Changed Toward the Schoos?' He de-
tailed the establishment of the element
ary schools in this country by the early
colonies and its spread. 1t now covers
the whole country with the best system
of education in the world.
0. I. Ceran, Com m issioner of Common
Schools of Ohio, talked on Extreme Edu-
cation" and was followed by Miss E,telle
Reel, Superintendent OF Pubic Instruc-
ton of Wyoming, on What Not to Do"
Miss Reel said the West Influenced the
East not TO do MANY things that would
unit the young for citizenship. We have
too much over-education; we sacrifice the
age and develop the talents which will
make pupils useful. Miss Reel closed
with an eloquent peroration of the happy
time in the future when the educational
skies will be brighter and "the heart the
home of the will"
w. b. Powell OF Washington, d. c..
spoke on the Educational Outlook"
"Some Tendencies Of Modern Educa-
ton" was discussed by Judge S. A. Fore
shay of Los Angeles, Cal. He noted many
changes concerning modern education
and predicted glorious things Of the
future. The theme of James L. Huron
was 1.-THE Education of the Twentieth
Century, He said the schools of the
twentieth century would be free and the
child will be free in the twentieth century
school. He believed the schools of the
next century will give increased attention

James NJ. Greenwood of Kansas City,
Mo-. the newly elected president. had for
his subject, "Shall American History Be
Taught in Cross Sections or in Parallels 2"
He said: 1--WE should abandon the
anecdote plan and teach history in parallel
lines. Take UP subject of settlement or
terrt torial expansion or anything else and
carry it through to the end. telling all
about it."
''Winners of Men," by James H Can
field, president of the Ohio State Uni

said: I'VE should bring into existence
that pure democracy where war and riot
are things of the past, and it must come
through the work OF the schools. We
must have men in our public schools who
are winners of men and who are leaders,"

TURF NOTES.

ReiF Has Poor Luck IN Riding Faror-
ties at OoEley.
Jockey C. Reif seems to be the "favorite
killer" at the Oakley and Latonia tracks,
to S shot seldom escaping his terrific hammer
locks. He seems to ride easy though, and
must stand well with the right "push," the
same as Willie Martin did at Ingleside.
Geyser, the California bred colt, started in o
handicap at Oakley yesterday, but found the
clip too fast, the final quarter ending up in
third position.
1t is now said that Rey Alfonso, the fast
Prince OF Norfolk sprinter, will face the star
ter again. R Hughes, who raced Miss Rem
sen aud others last winter. has the big fellow
up, and expects to annex several purses in the
future with him.
VIII Wallace, who brought Soup" Perkins
to California a couple of years ago TO have
some fun with the wild West public, and who
is now racing st Oakley, generally puts up
Beauchamp on his horses when he is placing
mis- checks down. Wallace brought Perkins
here and had the selecting of his mounts. The
first horse he piloted at Ingleside was Realza-
ton, an odds favorite. Soup planted
him in the cemetery along with the other un-
numbered dead, and it reached the ears OF
Captain Rees, presiding judge. Perkins grew
homesick that very night and left for his "old
Kentucky home" the following morning. Cap
tain Rees wired the colored jockey to return,
but he was busy at school, and never came
back again,

Government Orders That a Space
Sixty Feet Wide Be Cleared
Within a Month.

NOGALES, ARIZ., July 9.-Nogales is
situated directly upon the boundary line
that divides the United States from Mex
leo, the line running through the princi-
pal business thoroughfare-Inter
street. The city is also on the Nogales
Elias Land Grant, which has lately been
declared a fraudulent grant by the courts,
and therefore none of the property hold
ers have clear titles to their lands. The
city has been endeavoring to obtain from
the United States Govern ment clear titles,
which the Government refuses to grant
until a street sixty feet wide is made on
the Arizona side of the boundary line.
international street as it now stands is
entirely on the Mexican side, the Ameri-
cans having provided for no street on
their side, as was intended when this city
was laid out.
When the Boundary Commits was
surveying the line n number of years ago
they were compelled to cut crevasse in
a saloon owned by John Brickwood to
enable them to put the dividing monu-
ment in its right place.
The officials have now taken the matter
into their hands, and this week a survey
ing party has been here in charge of Cap
tain McNaster of the United States army.
1t made a report which was telegraphed
to Washington. The officials have noti-
fled all persons occupying properly within
6O feet of the boundary line to remove all
buildings and distractions within one
month, after which time The Government
will remove every hing remaining. Some
OF the property owners are very bitter and
say they will hold their property by force
of arms, but the authorities at Washing
ton are equally determined there shall be
street on the Arizona side of the boun-
Diary line, and there will surely be trouble.
The Southern Pacific Railroad is the
first to obey the orders OF the Government.
Yesterday operations were begun 10 re-
move the depot and Office building, which
is situated 40 feet on the American side
and 40 feet on the Mexican side, the boun-
dary line running through the center of
the building. The telegraph office from
which this dispatch is sent Is partly in
Arizona and partly in Mexico.

Perkins, Hiiborn and Barham
to Send a Joint Letter
to Mckinley.
CONGRESSMAN LOUD FAVORS
ANOTHER.
Would Like to Have John D. Daily
Become Collector of Internal
Revenue.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 81. C..
Lynch of San Bernardino will in few
days be appoint ted Collector of Internal
Revenue to succeed o. NJ. Wel5urn, sus-
pended. Senator Perkins and Represen-
tatives Hilborn and Barham will to-mor.
row write letter to President Mckinley
asking that Lynch be appointed. Mr..
Loud is yet confined to his room and will
not be able to meet his colleagues of the
California delegation, but he will be con-
suited in the matter.
It is the general understanding that
Mr.. Loud will not join Perkins, HiIborn
and Barham in their recommendation of
Lynch. He would like to have John D.
DAILY, the defeated candidate for Postmas-
ter, appointed Collector. 1t is not be-
lieved, however, that Mr.. Loud will offer
any factious opposition to Lynch's ap-
pointment. This is only a surmise, as
Mr.. Loud is too sick to be interviewed on
the matter.
A curious feature of the contest for Col
Ieetor Is the fact that although Lynch, as
q men. Der of the California Legislature,
was instructed by his constituents to vote
for Perkins for United States Senator, he
cast his vote for De Young. Nevertheless
Senator Perkins will recommend him for
Collector, because he has the best in
dorsements of California Republicans, as
we'll as business men, irrespective of party
affiliations. Eighty-six mem bers OF the
Legislature have signed his petition, as
we'll as large number of bankers, bank
cashiers and the strongest business men of
San Francisco. Among them is Louis
Sloss
Mr.. Lynch, the prospective appointee,
is now at the Ebbitt House in Wash
ington.

SAN RAFAEL, CAL, July g. - The
County Board OF Supervisors ran across a
reminder of Colonel Peter A. Fjnigan, the

spent six weeks in the County Jail and
then went through insolvency III order TO
