Tribute to the G. A. r. Ladies.

Eds. Record Union:' 1 have been
looking anxiously through the columns
of your city papers to see if honor had
been given to one of your Sacramento
ladies. Mrs. Belle S. Herr, for her un
firing efforts in behalf of the Veterans,
S. of ", l.. of G.. A. r., and in fact
every one she came in contact with at
the late encampment at Salinas, but fail
to see the proper recognition. 1t was
the sentiment most generally expressed
that more credit was due her than
any one person nonresident of Salinas.
Her pleasant manners and winning
way endeared her to every one who
came in contact with her Her re-
marks at the banquet received the
heartiest applause of any one and she
deserved them
To the Sons of Veterans she specially
endeared herself, being the only one
during the whole time at Salinas who
dared come out boldly and speak for
them. Her voice is one of the best [
have ever heard and the ladies should
feel proud of having such an eloquent
representative in their Order. I know
she will be an honor to the Order at
the Ladies' Grove planting in Sacra-
mentO.
/ echo her remarks in regard to the
Veterans and S of V. who would
you expect to care for them better than
a wife, mother or sister," Who? God
bless the Ladies of the G.. A. r., wher-
ever they may be they always have
our best wishes, especially Past Presi-
dent Belle S. Herr.

MYSTERIOUS BLAZE.
Fire Among the Buildings at Agri-
cultural Park.

There was a fire at Agricultural Park
yesterday morning that, with a favora-
BILE wind. would have swept the grand
stand and probably the long rows OF
sta bles and other buildings on the
Twentieth street side of the track.
AS it was, damage to the extent OF
about $500 was done to the structures
north of the G-street entrance, but the
stiff breeze from the south enabled the
firemen to prevent the flames from
spreading in that direction. The fire
started in the office of the building in
the saddling paddock, which with a
couple of low shed-stalls We're de-
stroyed
While Chief Engineer Guthrie was
carrying a hose on the roof of the
grand stand a cleat on which he was
walking gave way, and the roof being
wet and slippery he was unable to hold
his footing Even after throwing him
self upon the roof he was no better off
and would certainly have been thrown
to the ground. some thirty or forty
feet below, but for the timely assist
ance Of hoseman Thomas Dixon.
The latter emerged from a man hole
in the roof just in time TO grasp Chief
Guthrie's coat as he was sliding down
Dixon's grip was disastrous to the coat
but it saved the Chief from an acct
dent that might have killed him OF
crippled him for life.

tried in Justice Henrys court for bat

The testimony was of such a charac-

The case was prosecuted by Assistant
District Attorney Jones' who in the
most scathing manner denounced men
who would seek such opportunities for
leading young girls astray. The jury
took three ballots. On the first, there
were eight jurors for conviction.
On the second ballot two held out for
conviction, but on the third a verdict
of not guilty was reached.

LECTURE ASSOCIATION.
Closing Entertainment for the Pres
ent Seasons Course.

Announcement is made that the clos
ing number of the present season S
course of entertainments of the Sacra-
mento Lecture Association will be Civ
en- next Saturday evening, when the
renowned oratoroi soprano, Nine.
Geneva Bishop will appear,
supported by Miss Nellie Cook, pianist,
graduate of the Leipsic and Vienna
Conservatives of Music.
The high reputation of Nine. Bishop,
especially as a soprano soloist in ora
torio music, is well known among all
musicians, while her singing in lyric
lines is shown by the press cities to be
equally popular. The Boston Journal
referring to the recent appearance of
this artist in that city says: Geneva
Bishop gave the recitatiVe
and aria Praise the Redeemer'S Name,
from Beethoven's Mount of Olives She
met with a grand reception, which was
fully deserved Mrs. Bishops delivery
of the recitative was a clear and broad
Interpretation, showing that the artist
had studied the works of the masters
to advantage. This was followed by a
rendition of the aria-clear, expressive,
forcibe. Her articulation was perfect,
her phrasing correct, and she made the
success of the concert. The enthusiasm
of the audience was SO great that she
was obliged to repeat the latter part
of the number
The Philadelphia Musical Journal
says of her concerning an appearance
in that city on a recent date: "One Of
the most delightful features of the
evening was the singing of Mrs. Gen
ezra tombstone Bishop, who captured
the audience in her aria from Ira
viata' Her voice is beautiful and all
her work done with intelligence and
finish"

seems to be exceedingly ill-advised now
when he appears before the public as
shield and protection to boodlers and
blackmailers
1T is very peculiar also that Mr..
Weinstock should declare that nothing
came of the investigation of these
charges by the Grand Jury. AS that
body has not yet reported, it would be
Interesting to know how Mr.. Weinstock
became possessed of any such knowl-
edge, if knowledge it be, or if he be re-
sponsible for it.
Mr.. Weinstock should try his cases
in court. Or, if he will insist upon max
ing grand-stand play before the peo-
pie, he should at least be honest in his
statements. Let him tell the public
what he ought to do, if he does not
that the statements published in the
Bee are not those of Won Arnold alone,
but that whatever has been printed in
these columns rests not solely upon the
reports of Won Arnold but upon the
corroborative evidence of trustworthy
witnesses and authentic documents.
For Mr.. Weinstock to endeavor to
publicly cast discredit upon the expose
by the Bee of boodlerS and blackmail-
ers, because one of the instruments in
that expose happened to be Carl j. Won
Arnold, is about as sensible and as man
ly as it would be for him to sheer at and
condemn the philanthropic work of his
partner and relative, David Lubin-ln
prosecuting which that good man has
spent thousands of dollars and to which
he has devoted years of his life-because
much of the labor thereon was done by
an INSCRIPTIONS blackmailer of men
and women, John A. Sheehan."
That said publication and said article,
so composed and published by the de-
PENDANTS. are false, defamatory, ma
liciouS and unprivileged.
".
That by reason of said publication
and by reason of the premises the plain
tiff has been injured and damaged in the
sum of $4,000, no part of which has
| been paid.
Wherefore, plaintiff prays judgment
against said defendants for the sum of
$50 900, together with his costs of suit
herein. and for all such other, further or
different relief as to the court may seem

LIVELY CHASE.
A Hat Thief Whose Leg nuscles Were

While w. M. Smith, who conducts a
hat store on street, was at one side
of his establishment yesterday he heard
a noise at the other side, and hurrying

the act of passing out the door.
The stranger struck Mr. Smith for
twenty five cents. The latter noticed
a bundle under the hobos coat, and
contained three valuable hats which
had been extracted from the stock on
hand in the rear part of the store.
The thief waited no longer. He ran

At the station the man gave the
name of George Lee, but refused to

capture him while making his sprint
