The California county commissioners
have decided that each one shall give
the lecture on his particular locality at

enterprise Of Captain Harris, the Kings
County commissioner. These lectures
are being given regularly now at

by crowds that fill the little halr at the
California building. San Joaquin Coun-
ty pictures were displayed the first
evening, with Calvin Brown as lee
turer. Sacramento followed, with Roy
Brooke as the orator in its behalf.
Fresno County's pictures were ex-
planned by Charles Wyer, and Kings

INTEREST IN DISPLAY.

Much interest is manifested in the
pretty display made by Santa Barbara.
This is one Of the world-famous Cali
fornia resorts. There are few tourists
who have ever visited the Golden State
who have not spent some Of their time
at this place, where the climate Is OF
the sort that makes one wish dreams
could produce bank accounts or that
bank accounts were not a prerequisite
of dreams. Santa Barbara's fame
brings as many people to her exhibit
as it will bring to Santa Barbara
Before the Worlds Fair opened some
enterprising citizens Of Santa Barbara
conceived the idea Of exhibiting at the
exposition 500 live California quail.
There was a game law that prevented
the capture of the birds and so they
went to Merritt, who had been to the
Legislature. where he got some game
laws passed himself. and asked him his
advice. He consulted the Fish and
Game Commission and got permission
to capture the birds. The promoters
were happy until they heard the condi-
tiOns. These were that one man only
catch the entire 500 quail and that he
make affidavit for what purpose they
were going to be used. Some OF them,
it was understood. were to be sent TO
public parks in Europe after the fair.
None was to be killed.

CALL BUREAU, PRESS BUILDING.
WORLDS FAIR, ST. LOUIS. Sept.3.-
Santa Barbara County is showing some
Of the finest lemons displayed here.
They come from the Crocker-Sperry
ranch. They have not been entered for
prizes, though no lemons have been dis
played up to date that can surpass
them.
Something California lemon growers
should look into is a complaint that
lemons sent East by them do not keep
as we'll as those sent from other To-
calities. Whether this is due to faulty
curing or the variety Of the fruit is
not known, but growers could probably
find the cause and remedy it if they in
vestigated.
c. w. Merritt, the commissioner from
Santa Barbara, failed to get his daily
temperature reports by telegraph from
that county for one or two days, and
was wondering what caused the omis-
sion. A Los Angeles man told him
there had probably been a hot wave.
and he quit wondering and awaited his
home papers.
Commissioner Merritt Is having
great difficulty with the crayfish he
brought here from Santa Barbara. IL
is in tank of preserving fluid and he
wants to get it in jar so as to show
1t better. but 1t is Of such great length,
its whiskers alone being the longest in
Missouri, that no jar in St. Louis will
hold it. The public is overlooking the
fact every day that Santa Barbara has
the biggest grapevine and the biggest
crayfish in the world, and with two
such wonders known to the world prog
ress should be certain.

fortunate occurrence. They returned 10
their home yesterday and the matter OF
a settlement is now pending, having
been placed in the hands OF prominent
law firm of the city.
Graves himself puts different phase
on the story. He says they We're mar
ried and lived happily for four days.
and when the new Wife was about TO
come to Mason City her father, who IS
a Hercules in strength, stepped INTO
their apartments and struck Graves a
blow that ma lie his face look like a
piece OF raw beafsteak, or words to that
effect Then the parents re2entei ana
came here to investigate the matter,
and that the mother said that under the
circumstances it would be better to
have the daughter return with them
and she would try to persuade her to
come back again to Mason City to live.
He says he is not adverse to the news
paper publicity. Anything they want
as long as they tell the truth
Those who have seen the young wife
say Graves has a fine eye for feminine
worth and beauty, as the Michigan lass
is a dream.

Hiver Northwest OF Webster City Be-
ing Repeatedly Seined.
Special To Times Republican.
Webster City, May 21.-F,ish seiners
northwest of this city are getting so
bold that they order fishermen away
from the river when they find them
trying to secure u fish by the lawful
means of hook and line. The state of
affairs in that neighborhood has grown
SO bad that the people are getting tired
of it and measures will be taken to stop
the practice.
One prominent farmer. who lives
near woodstock was in the city yes
terday and made loud and vigorous
complaint against certain class of
people who had ruined fishing in
that part of the river and intimidated
the people who live in that part of the
county.
This farmer. whose word cannot be
doubted, said that from the Boak farm
north to Woodstock there We're twelve
seines in the river and that three of
these were owned in Woodstock.
