DIPLOMATIC BILL PASSED.
District Appropriations Taken Up by
the House.

During the consideration of the diplo-
matte and consular bill in the House yes
terday afternoon Mr.. Slayden of Texas crit
icised very severely the character of our
consular officers abroad, especially some OF
those in Mexico. Some of the Mexican con-
sulates, he said, were made regular asy-
lums for "invalids and drunkards.' 1t
makes an American blush,' said he, ito
hear the stories that are told of some of
our official representatives" Proceeding,
he narrated how a United States consul at
Saltillo, Mexico, with two companions, last
summer entered the ONCE OF a newspaper
editor to assault him.
"Were any charges made to the State De-
partment against this official?' asked Mr.
Adams of Pennsylvania.
Charges have been repeatedly mace re-
left town between night and morning while
was in the city.
The particular vice Of our representatives,
Mr.. Slayden proceeded to say seemed TO
he drunkenness and in this connection he
referred to the case of the special envoy
sent by a democratic President some years
ago, who he said, 'got drunk at FL Paso
and painted broad red streak down to the
Citv of Mexico 1000 miles to the south. "
He also told of another consular othcial
who he said, some years ago paWneo the
American flag for forty cents with Whlcn
TO buy drink and the concluding chapter OF
his arra.gnment was the charge that an
American vice consul had been charged
with being implicated in the theft of some
coal.
Mr.. Adams of Pennsylvania. member of
the foreign affairs committee, said he was
glad the question of reforming our consular IT
service was attracting attention. Inc phi
was then read for amendment unaer the

made by Mr.. Mcclellan the provision Tor a

Fewer Gallons; Weaas Longer. >,

The secret is out and Oakland can
go on living just as if the riddle had
hever been asked.
No it can't, either. Oakland is not
going to be what it was before. Its
houses are going to be brighter; its
people little more prosperous-they
are going to have some of their mon
ey left to buy other things with.
The answer to the riddle is this
you can paint building with fewer
gallons of Devoe Lead and Zinc paint
than with mixed paints, and it will
wear several times as long as build
ing painted with lead and oil mixed
by hand. What will people do with
the rest of their money? JIM. Davis

Resolutions to the sIemory of e. n. Casteel.
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased God in
his infinite wisdom and love to take
from us to Himself our friend and
brother, Edward n. Casteel; and
WHEREAS, While we deplore our
loss and sadly miss his cheerful PIES
ence snd his musical voice in our
church and home assemblies and long
once more to hear his inspiring and
cordial words of greeting and encour-
agment, and also our hearts are wrung
to witness the great grief of his
Stricken family, yet well we know
that our great loss is to him an infin-
lite gain, for he died a peaceful death
after weeks of weary but patient suf-
fering, perfectly resigned to the will
of Him who doeth all things WE'LL"
and
WHEREAS, In view of our high ap-
probation of his almost unprecedent-
ed kindness of heart and cheering
fellowship while with us in this tur-
bulent life we, the members of the
church choir and committee of the
membership of the Sang Run M. h.
church, respectfully offer the follow
ing resolutions to his memory and
coincidence with his sadly bereaved
family:
ReSOtced, That we believe that the
life OF our departed friend and brother
contained the elements of the true
christian character in its almost phe-
nomenal uplifting, cheerfulness and
Christlike ability to readily forgive
an offending brother or sister; his ever
ready Willingness to help when most
needed; his signal fidelity to home
ties, love of family, friends and his
native place; his cheerful willingness
to spend and be spent" for the good
of others.
ReSotced, That we, the members of
this association, earnestly desire, by
word and deed, to console and soothe
the deep grief of his bereaved wife
and children, and desire to point
them to the only true source of COM
fort, while We lift our own hearts to
Him i'll thankfulness that our hearts
are not as yet thus sore with new
grief of bereavement.
ReSOlCed, That we herein publicly
acknowledge the lasting benefits to
us as individuals and as an organiza-
ton as result of the earnest and be-
nign efforts of our lamented brother
to endow us with that "heaven sent
accomplishment lone wholly inseper-
able from all uplifting and successful
church work)-the ability to sing
sweetly and lin the spirit
ReSOJUed, That we are imbued with
an earnest desire to emulate his MANY
Christian virtues and to forever pass
by any imperfections which may have
fallen to his lot, knowing that all
mankind possess at least some form
of imperfection; and, farther, to the
young and the thoughtless who are
now impressed by the death of our
dear brother and friend we earnestly
commend the attempted emulation of
such sterling Christian characteristics
as beautified the life of our departed
friend.

The spreckels Case.

Judge A s Humphreys has filed
ON affidavit in the Circuit Court to
show the authority OF his firm for
appearing as attorneys for Mrs
Watson in the Spreckels case. 1t
seems, from the affidavit, that some
FIVE years ago, when Mr. aud Mrs
Watson were here, on trip around
the world, they engaged Humph-
reys to represent them and paid
him a retainer's fee OF $780, No
proceedings for the recovery OF the
property signed away by Mrs Wat
son at the time of her marriage
werethen brought for the reason
that she had confidence that her
father, Claus Spreckels, would deal
fairly with her. Judge Humphreys
claims TO have received the next
instructions from his clients under
date OF April 20 of this year, as fol-
lowe:
"Unfortunately my wife did not
know, and does not now know what
she signed away, but it included the
bank property occupied by Billy
Irwin, some Hawaiian sugar stock,
etc.
"At the time we did not want to
take legal proceedings against Claus
Spreckelf, my wife's father, and
create more discord in the already
discordant family, but since then
they have prosecuted my wife so
cruelty, so inhu-,anly, that she has
lost all consideration for their feel
ings, and she is now willing to pro-
coed against whoever it may be
necessary to dc, to establish her
rights, if you advise that there is
any prospect Of success, and will
take the business on hand on shares
as you then proposed.
"We are settled here now and
await your reply and irs,ructiouS,'

alleges, be received Instructions
