Names Of the Lucky Men Who
Have Been Chosen for Duty
in the Office.
II fluence of Members of the L.gisla.
ture Has Been Recogniz d b.
the County Clerk.

It was surmised during the session of
the Legislature that Immediately after
the adjournment OF that body some
changes would take place in the clerical
force of the County Clerks office of this
City. c. f. Curry. the County Clerk, en-
countered some obstacles at Sacramento,
and in order 10 protect the public service
and guard his own interests decided to
recognize several mem bers in the distribu-
ton of official patronage.
1t has been whispered low in the corri-
dors OF the City Hall for several days that
quite number of changes in the office
would take place at the expiration of the
present month. The County Clerk has
teen subjected to every influence imagin-
able to make certain appointments and to
withhold contemplated removals. The
"ins'' bring as much pressure to stay as
the ''outs" do to get in. It WAS first
reported twelve clerks would be let out
to-day, but Mr.. Curry said to reporter OF
THE CALL yesterday afternoon that only
four changes would be made at present.
He declined to name the men to be let
out on the ground that it might work to
their detriment by preventing them from
getting instant employment elsewhere.
He said, II intend to appoint Fred Frey
as deputy and to appoint Holcombe, Kin
caid and Prindt as copyists in the Office. "
When asked if any members of the
Legislature would be appointed Mr. Curry
replied in the negative. but observed that
they had strongly recommended the men
whose selection had been made.
There is sure to be great pulling and
hauling to-day when the changes are an
nounced. The friends of the dismissed
will gather to demonstrate against the ac-
tion of the County Clerk and bring every
pull possible to restore their favorites to
place.
1t was ascertained at the City Hall last
evening that William Reynolds, who was
appointed for three months, was the dep
uty 10 be removed in order 10 open The
way for Frey's appointment. Mr.. Rey-
nolds is spoken of as a capable and
worthy man.
Later Coutty Clerk Curry ann ounced
that he intended putting A. ]. Martin in
his Office as deputy.

The Ladies' Of the West Side Chris
rIan Church and John Lind
Provide Lunches.
The work On the boulevard is rapidly
progressing. The men, with but few
exceptions, seem to be doing good work.
A few, who were inclined to shirk their
work were discharged yesterday. 1t had
a good effect on the Others and 1t IS not
expected that any more dismissals will
become necessary. The subscription
fund has reached $139 901 80 and it is hoped
that it will soon reach $4,000. That sum
would be just about enough to carry the
work through thoroughly. Next Sunday
will Sc the roadway ready for driving and
the visitors will be enabled to take spin
of almost a mlie.
Just before II o'clock yesterday a COM
mittee of ladies from the West Side Chris
tian Church drove up. They had most
bounteous supply of luncheon, includin e
several hundred sand @ iches, boiled eggs,
cans of potted ham, FISH, beans, etc. All
kinds of cakes, fruits and jelly finished up
the list, if one lone cigar may be ex-
copied.
The committee consisted o. the follow
ing ladies: Mrs. T. Young, Ms. Clark,
Mrs. Emmy and Mrs. McBirney. Soon
after this event John Lind drove up with
an express wagon load of sandwiches, and
so with the soup from the Almshouse
the men had more than enough 10 eat.
Donations keep coming in and in the
nick of time. Yesterday the Judson Man.
ufacturing Company sent in keg of
nails, Payot, Upham & Co. sent in a batch
of stationery and the Washburn & Moen
Manufacturing Comnany donated two

Orient

The Pacific Mail Steamship Company's s
steamer City OF Rio de Janeiro anchored
off Meiggs wharf at 8 o'clock last even
ing after a run of twenty-eight days from
Hongkong, China. The steamer touched
at Yokohama and Honolulu on her voy.
age. and owing to rumols of pestilence IN
those foreign lands the cabin passengers,
twenty in number, were not allowed to
land.
The ship carries clean bill of health,
and the passengers will probably be al

antine ply sicians have concluded their
examination.
Captain Ward of the Rio de Janeiro
says that all is quiet at Spreckelsville. the
great Hawaiian islands sugar plantation,
and that the rumors of rioting among the
Japanese at that place appeared to be
without foundation.

Some willy Oriental fathers of mar
riag-able daughters had a report
spread through Egypt recently to tile
effect that the government intended
to requisition all the unmarried men
for military service, and aid them to
resume the advance npon Khartoum.
The marriage rate went up by leaps
and bounds, many confirmed bache-
lois rushing into the holy estate to
avoid shouldering the rifle and a risky
march through the desert. Their
chagrin was great when they discov-
cred that it was a false alarm got up
by astnte parents who had marriage
BILE girls. but who either could not or
would not find the dowry always
expected in Oriental countries.
