Building Being Torn Down.

Where the Union Gospel Mission once
stood on the corner of Twenty-eighth

now nothing but one wall and this will
be torn down tomorrow. The timber in
the building is being placed to one side

CITIZENS CLUB STRUGGLES
WITH THE DETAILS.
Efforts to Secure Bryan, Ostriches,

There was a meeting of the Citizens
State Fair Committee at the Golden
Eagle Hotel last night. Many matters
of detail We're discussed and disposed
of during the session.
A committee from the Iroquois Club
called to confer relative to cooperating
to bring Colonel William Jennings
Bryan to the fair and to have him
speak at the Park or Pavilion. Mr..
Purnell reported that Bryan would not
come to Sacramento to speak, unless he
could discuss political issues too.
Director j. w. Wilson Of the State
Agricultural Society said the Park
would be the best place for the speech.
He also thought Bryan might speak
with propriety on politics, as he would
be big drawing card. 1t was finally
decided to cooperate with the Iroquois
Club, and the matter of theme and
place was held under advisement.
Mr.. Henderson of the Native Sons,
reported a cake walk program, and the
order wanted about $500 to carry out
its program. He said there were pros
poets of 1000 people or more in the
N. S. G.. w. contingent. The question
was taken under advisement by the
The record-union., 1899-08-31

sum could be allowed. The Native Sons
wanted the money for music, entertain
ment etc.
1t was decided to abandon the Mon
day night parade on Ladies Night, and
to open q registry booth for ladies'
clubs contesting for cash prizes. IL
was announced that the wives and
daughters of the Directors of the state

their friends from 8 to 1880 p. m. on

rapid system of letting in professions
and large delegations.
Captain Seymour reported that Mr.
Menke's ostriches will be at the com

been made to give more aisle space and

j. o. Coleman was appointed as q
committee to secure headquarters for
a Bureau of Accommodation. He was
instructed to report the cost Of clerk
hire, printing, ETC., at a meeting Of the
committee to be held tonight. The
purpose is to list all private rooms,
their location, price, ETC., and stand as
agent between the landlords and city's
guests.
L. w. Buckley, amusement director,
will arrive Saturday and remain until
the end of the fair. He says Monday

from disease, but for the past year
there has been a general failing of her
powers and she has resided with Jacob,
on the old home place, where her life
gently faded away.
The funeral services were held at the
little chapel near Cosumnes, by Rev.
Charles Welch and the pail bearers
were S. B. Moore, J. w. Heath, c. H
Ruman, Frank Grimshaw, George
