Foresters.
Here to Attend the High Court Meet
ing of the Organization at
Santa Rosa.

Dr. Oronhyatekha, the supreme chief
ranger OF the Independent Order of
Foresters. is In the city on his way to at
tend the high court of the Stale organi-
cation, which will convene at Santa Rosa
next Tuesday.
The doctor was one of the founders of
this great and growing order, and is much
interested in the work. Within the last
two months he has been in attendance at
the high courts held in London, Belfast,
Quebec, Maine and three in Ontario.
Just before coming here he was in the
northwest territories in Canada and in
Ohio and Illinois. He says that the order
IS at present firmly established in the
United States, Canada and England, and
that steps are being taken to extend the
order and establish high courts in the
scandinavian countries, France, Belgium,
Switzerland and Germany.
Besides being interested in the Forest
ers, the doctor is a mem Der of a mum be-

DR.. Ornonhyatekha's official residence is
at Toronto, Canada, but his home is at
the Indian reservation on the Bay of
Quinte. He prides himself on the fact
tnat he is a full booded Indian of the Mo-
hawk tribe, the head of the Six Nations
| composing the Indian confederation.
In 1860. when the Prince of Wales
visited Canada, the doctor was CHOSEN 10
receive him for the tribe. The Prince
| recognized the worth of the young m an,
and on his return to England, through
his tending physician, Sir Henry Ac-

to the old country to pursue his studies.
He accepted the invitation and attended
oxford University, where he studied
medicine and graz uated with honor.
Being quite prominent IN politics in his
! country the doctor has been urged TO go
to Parliament. When asked about his
political aspirations the doctor said: "a
mum Der of my friends have become i'm
pressed with the idea that am born
statesman and there has been consid era bic
talk of my being sent to Parliament, but /
know myself better than others do and
have no desire to become a law-maker.

A CONSTABLE
IN THE BOX
The Heesemans EMPLOYED
Officer Keeler to Protect
Their Interests.
Fresno ll-Tossers Walloped
Those From Across the
Bay.
A Very Small Crowd Witnessed the
Game-and the Reason
for It.

Less than 800 people witnessed the game
played yesterday with a two bit dead ball,
between the Fresno Republicans and the
Heesemans of Oakland. at Central Park.
The crowd was The smallest ever seen on
the ground at Saturday game.
The Heesemans crossed the bay with
Constable Keeler of Oakland and he
looked after their interests in the box
office, counting the tickets and taking
charge OF the cash.
The men from the raisin center wal
loped the balltossers from across the bay
in great shape. They dropped on to Far
ren's curves in the first inning and
smashed out two base hits. In the fourth
they planted four in the field where
nothing could get at them. When the
game was ended they were credited with
thirteen base hits.
Fresno's crack pitcher, Thompson, was
in the box and he played great ball. The
Heesemans couldn't find him but for two
hits and one of these was of a scratch

|, order. Chance played great game al
first. Five times up he batted out three
base hits. Mccarthy received Thorn pson's s
delivery and did 1t well.
One of the incidents of the game was
Tyier's coaching. Tyler is elongated like
a tepladder, with Iuxuriant growth of
chrysanthemum hair. which he ruff1es up
as he shouts. Tyler's hair did much to
intimidate the Heesemans.
The absence of the crowd can be easily
explained. The public is saving its quar-
ters to attend the great game 10 be played
to-day at Recreation Park between Re-
lance and the Oily pics. In this game a
regulation ball will be us'd and the ma
tional game cannot properly be played
with any other.
At Central Park the men from the
raisin center will cross bats with the

A VICTORY FOR LABOR
Judge De Haven Orders a Cor
poration to Appear
for Trial.
John Kelso Company to Be Tried
Before Him for Violating the
Eight-Hour Law.

In accordance with the action of United
States Commissioner Heacock in holding
the John kelso Company for trial, Assist
ant United States Attorney knight asked
United States District Judge de Haven
yesterday morning for permission to file
an information az ainst the company
charging ii with TWO violations of the
Federal eig ht- hour law.
Mr.. knight i'll open court recited the
facts OF the service of the summons upon
the company in accordance with the pro-
visions of the Political Code of this State
of the failure of the company to appear
before the Commissioner; of the trial in
the absence of the defendant, and of the
action OF The Commissioner in holding the
defendant TO answer.
Judge de Haven granted the required
permission, signed the summons as pre-
scribed by the code, and ordered the in.
formation to be FLED.
This proceeding is looked upon s a
partial victory for labor. Kelso Obliged
his laborers 10 work nine and half hours
per dav upon the Postoffice site for Two
superintendent Roberts. He was ar
rested, but escaped punishment because
he showed that he was not the sub-con-
tractor, but that the company of which
he was president was the sub contr; ctor.
The perm ission given by Judge de
Haven practically means that the COM
pany must. through at least one of its
officers, appear in the United States Dis
trict Court for trial for mIsdemeanor, and

THE NEW FORSYTH PARK.
THE PARK COMMISSIONS PLAN OF
IMPROVEMENT.

The Walks to BE BrOadened and
Graded with Gravel and Granite
ChIps-A New Walk to Cross the
Park-The Low Places to BE Filled
in and Graded-Thc Flower Beds
Re-Arranged and Lawns Made.
The work of improving Forsyth park
is now well under way. This is the prin-
cipal work which the park commits
sion now has in hand and it is being given
very careful attention.
The plan Of improvement which has
been adopted for Forsyth park is simple,
but effective. The Bull street walk is to
be widened to a width of forty feet and
the benches which were formerly outside
the walk will be placed along the edges.
New and improved benches will be placed
along the walk.
A new walk, twenty feet in width, Is
being run straight across the park on the
line of Huntington street at right angles
to the Bull street walk The smaller
walks Will be ten feet wide and slightly
curviug or serpentine. The arrangement
win be such that a visitor entering the
park from any street has
the choice of proceeding eth
er straight forward or diagonally
towards any corner of the park or to the
fountain in the center. The new walks
viii take up less space than the old ones,
and will offer a better opportunity for ar
tistic effect
The plan adopted by the commission is
to mass the shrubbery and Towering
plants at the intersections of the walks
and leave as much open space as possible
for lawns. No trees will be sacrificed in
making the change, however. For the
new growth of the park, live oaks and
magnolias have been selected.
All the old walks are being plowed up.
They win be graded and rolled and then
reconstructed with Augusta gravel sur
faced with granite screenings. This
makes a very fine walk after the material
has thoroughly settled. The work on the
Whitaker street walk is now under way.
The entire walk, including both the old
sidewalk and the park walk, which was
formerly inside the iron fence, will be
reconstructed as one walk, which will be
over twenty feet in width. This is an i'm
provement which will be heartily APPROX
ed by the bicyclsts, and one which they
would enjoy much more if the city would
take up the work and construct similar
walks around the park extension. The
low places in the park, which formerly
held ponds of water after heavy rains, are
being filled in and graded.

BANKS DEEP UNDER WATER.
f. C. and p. Trains Running over the
Plant System.

The transportation department of the
Plant system had extra work before 1t
yesterday and the unusual circumstance
Of the operators of one dispatcher's Office
running the trains of their own and two
other lines was In evidence.
On account of the high water in the AL
tamaha districts and the southeastern
section of the state, the Florida Central
and Peninsular and the Southern could
not use their tracks. The Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular's communications
with Jacksonville from Savannah were cut
off by the swollen Altamaha. While the
bridge is stin standing over the river,
and the approaches are evidently not I'M
dermined, the officials preferred to be on
the safe side. They, therefore, ordered
trains between the two places stopped as
passage over the bridge was not regarded
as perfectly safe.
Trainmaster M V Raley went down
from Savannah yesterday to the threat
ened bridge. and he will see that every
thing possible will be done for its forth-
cation and Strengthening. The ap
proaches win also be reinforced wherever
possible. Trains over the line may be
resumed to-day or it may be considered
advisable to wait longer before running
them again.
The Southern is having ifs trains from
JeSup 10 BRUNSWICK go over lue Eldut
system. The Southerns line be-
tween those points has wash
outs, and the Savannah, Florida and West
ern and Brunswick and Western tracks
are used to get its terminus.
The waters Of the Withlacoocnee near
Ousley, on the Savannah, Florida and
Western, are still very high and are fall
ing very slowly. The country being fiat,
sheds the water slowly, and this accounts
for the long duration Of the floods. An
mex trains are being run to the stations
on either side nearest the bridge over the
stream. Passage across is not attempted,
and no transfers are made. All the bust
ness for points west of Ousley goes via
Albany by the Brunswick and Western,
and then down to Thomasville, from
which place trains run west into Alabama
and east to the unsafe bridge over the
Withlacoochee. 1t is not thought the
| bridge will be carried away, and the water
| is expected to fall sufficiently In a day or
| two to render its passage safe again.

WANT JOBS WITH UNCLE SAM.
Twenty Two Applicants For Civil
Service Places.

Twenty Two Applicants For Civil
Service Places.
Twenty-Five applicants for positions I'M
der Uncle Sans government stood civil
service examinations in room over the
postof1ce yesterday. Mr.. w. w. Rick
etts, member of the board of examiners
from Washington, was here to conduct
the examination, and he was assisted by
the members of the local board, Messrs.
II. b. Lemcke, H. G. Greene, T. Lloyd
Owens and II. H. Rawls.
Twelve of the applicants want to enter
the railway mail service, and they stood
examinations with that end in view. Six
want to be clerk copysts, two government
compostors and two government stenog-
raphers and typewriters. The papers were
sent here from Washington under seal
and were not opened until just before the
examination began. The applicants are
timed on each paper, and all of them were
put to pretty severe test.
The papers will be returned to Washing
ton where all of them will be graded there
by the central board Of examiners. This,
of course, gives uniformity in the grading
of all the papers. There has been a general
impression that these papers are graded
right here, but this is a mistake.
There viii be another civil service exam
nation here next Saturday for positions
under the treasury department, particularly
in the custom house service. There will
probably also be q large number of APP
plicants for these positions. Many, how
ever, are still hoping that the civil service
will in part be done away with by the new
admins tration, and that they will be ena-
bled to fall into something without the
trouble of standing an examination.
