known exhibits common in Europe.
 The birds are entirely full blooded birds from prize winning stock of the leading European exhibitors. The classes comprise clear yellow, buff and variegated Norwich, crest and crest bred; clear yellow, buff and dark York shire, breed which has superseded the Belgian, always delicate bird. York shire cinnamons. yellow and buff, with the gold and silver lizards, are other classes. The latter are favorite breed with European fanciers, the gold bird and silver being always paired togeth- CT. And with the crest bred class a crest is always paired with crest bred. One of the most beautiful in color is the Yorkshire cinnamon, of which there are two colors, yellow and buff cinna- mon, several of which in this exhibit are from a bird which was unbeaten at three of the leading English bird shows. The cinnamon class is a favor ite one in England; one breeder having won over 1000 cups and prizes at the bird shows in this class alone
 The owner has spared no trouble or expense to acquire magnificent col lection of fancy canaries, and this is the first time they have been exhibited in their entirety A half-dozen cages of representative specimens were, how ever, loaned to the Chamber of Com merce in Los Angeles, and attracted so much interest that upon their removal, at the request of the superintendent they were replaced by few others. as so many people attending the Chamber of Commerce daily to see the birds would otherwise have been disappoint- ed.

ratory.-Sketched for the San Francisco Call.

Foremost among the worlds greatest Medico-C Chemists stands T. A. Slocum of New York City. His efforts, which for years had been directed toward the discovery of a positive cure for con- sumption, were finally successful, and already his new scientific system of medicine has, by it's timely use, per- manently cured thousands of apparently hopeless cases, and it seems q necessary and humane duty to bring such facts to the attention of all invalids.
 He has demonstrated the dreaded dis ease to be curable beyond a doubt, in any climate.

A CHINAMAN'S WORD
Officer Ritch Will Have to Swear
Against It

The trials of All kwong and Wong Woo on
charges OF gaming will be heard by Justice
Morrison this morning at $3.50 and then the
details of the raid OF the fan-tan joint of the
two Chinese will be related under oath. At
torneys Appel and Phibbs are still clamorous
for the 500 which they allegc the arresting
officer took from Kwong. They applied to
Justice Morrison yesterday for an order that
the money and stuff taken by the officer be
produced in court. Due notice was served
on the officer.
In this action of the two Chinese against
the people of the state of California the
statement is made that the Chinese de-
manded a receipt from the officer for their
money. Ritch states positively that Kwong
ran away without making any such demand
and that the other Chinese claimed that he
could not talk English and made no request
for receipt. Ritch further states that he
took but $50 and some cents, instead of 800,
as claimed. Chief Glass said yesterday that
Ritch would have given the Chinese a re-
ceipt for their money and counted it before
them had any such demand been made, but
neither OF the men asked it.

NEWS OF The RAILWAYS
THE SANTA FE NOT AT ALL IN
POLITICS
So Says President Ripley-A Predica-
ment for Grant-News and
Personal Notes

The Santa Fe is not in politics. President
Ripley has said SO in circular, and that
settles it, for the people always know that
such assertions are to be relied upon. 1t was
only few years ago that president G. Z.
Huntington of the Southern Pacific
made the same statement, and
made it over and over again, as MIR. Ripley
may do, and every one knows how Mr.
Huntington has kept his word. 1t is true,
| the circular was issued before Y. ;. Grant
became known as candidate acceptable to
the company for the United States, and also
before George Arnold's candidacy for the
board of equalization became Imperfect,
but it is to be supposed that the order was
| obeyed, for Judge" Almon p. Magnnis,
who has been misrepresented as having a
desire TO help both of those men, and Cen
eral Manager Nevin backed up Mr.. Ripley 3
assertion by disclaiming the charges that
they did anything in the nature of work
ing in the recent campaign, and of any III
tention of so doing in the senatorial cam
paign now on.
All of which shows the remarkable una
nimty of ideas on such matters among
great railway men. Mr.. Huntington, Mr..
Ripley. Judge" Maginnis and Mr.. Nevin
all say the road is not in politics, and what
more, with Huntington's example before it,
can a discerning public wish. Grant must
mourn and make his fight alone. Those Off

urged his claims. were of course. not work
ing for him. they undoubtedly had Mr.
Ripey's circular before their minds eye all
of the time. and were simply amusing them
selves and entertaining the people they
talked to- Except Judge Maginnis, for in
an interview yesterday he put in a clause
to the effect that whatever he did 'has been
done on my own personal responsibility
Then. again. Mr.. Grant must have been
egregiously mistaken in his interview, where
he was quoted as saying that the Santa Fe
company in California was strongly for him,
while the Southern Pacific WAS against him.
Mr. Ripley's circular reads as follows:
"Some misunderstanding seems to exist as
to the intent of the rule forbidding officers
and employees of the company from taking
active part in politics.
''It is not the intention to restrict the
exercise of individual rights, and there is no
objection to the free and full expressions of
opinion nor TO membership in political or
CARNATIONS.
1T is expected that every officer or EN-.
ploye will act as his reason may dictate in
any public matter; but principle does not
require the acceptance of places of profit or
honor. and the neglect OF the company's busi-
ness ON such accounts will not be tolerated
1T will not be difficult for an officer or
employe to properly draw the line between
the duties to the company and to his coun-
try. if he will constantly bear in mind that

elsewhere are matters with which the COM
pany has nothing whatever to do; but the
company rightfully demands that no officer
