All Strangers.

Inc men who came thus mySter-
iously and without previous warning
were all strangers in this city and
county. 1t is presumed, that they
were from the counties of Hancock,
Ohio and Mclean, which surround
this (Daviess) on the east and south
and in which nearly all of the tobac-
co of the crops of 1905 and 1906 have
been pooled, as were the two crops
in this county also. In this county
the pooled crops have nearly all been
sold while in other counties the to-
hacco is still unsold.
The growers of the outlying coun-
ties believe that if the tobacco of
this county grown this year and
which amounts to twelve or more
million pounds be sold or dumped"
as it is called, their three crops may
remain on their hands and this
would reduce them to bankruptcy,
as most of them are the poorer class
of growers. This danger has caused
them to assume a very ugly mood in
recent weeks and some threats have
been made.
The situation has been intensified
by the fact that the American and
other buyers have sent their agents
out into the country and they have
talked boastingly of their success in
buying md of the coming rupture
of the A nerican Society of Equity.
The Business Mems Association
held m citing last night for the
purpose + trying to prevent alarm,
but it hat no information before it

would Wis the city to confer with

GO TO THEIR FATE
WITH SONG AND LAUGH
ON THEIR PAINTED LIPS

The first wagon came in at 11:20 with
a load of ten girls from the lone
apartment house. For half a block
away their hysterical shouts and songs
could be heard and as they entered the
police station they gave utterance to
half-demonical mirth.
The first girl booked, a small bru
nette, came forward with an air of
bravado and gave her name. And
put down Bill" she said, II belong to
Bill"
The desk sargeant refused. HE
won't put down Bill" she exclaimed,
pettishly to her confreres, land they
won't know where to send for my
bail"
Meanwhile the miserable "Chevalier
d'Amour," who owned the girls body
and soul was covering in some corner
while his wretched victim faced the
mocking laughs of the assembled men.
The first cargo was sufficient to show
that the raid" would be simply on
the women. orders had been given to
"let the boys Slip Through the back
alleys and mud holes of the Tender
loin district covered the habitues of
the district. Here and there a we'll
dressed man would be seen, hunting

STUDENTS HONOR
GROVER CLEVELAND

10th Birthday
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PRINCETON, N. j., March 26.-The
entire undergraduate body of Princeton
university paraded to the home of for
mer President Cleveland today and
presented him V ith loving cup.
The cup was to have been given to
Mr.. Cleveland on his SEVENTEEN birth
day, March IS, but he was IL the south
at the time.
In accepting the gift Mr.. Cleveland
said:
II am sure you do not fully realize all
the satisfaction which this occasion af-
fords me. 1t is, Of course, within your
expectations that from a heart stirred
t. its depths by sense of thankfulness
should attempt to give expression to
the delight which accompanies the re-
ception of your birthday gift, but you
cannot know and appreciate the oppor-
tunity long desired and here given me
to acknowledge to the students of
Princeton themselves, what has daily
and hourly come to me through even a
limited association with their univer-
sity life.
Il feel young at 20 because I have
here aspiring young manhood.
You have created this atmosphere
and through the providence of God it
has been given to me to breath in these
later days this healthy stimulating in
fluence.
II can promise that during all the
time awaiting me, l shall make partial
payments by an increased love for you
and all undergraduates of Princeton,
and by an increasing devotion to the
badge of Princeton wherever hnd 1t.

GETS HIS PERMIT
AFTER LONG WAIT
WHOLESALE LIQUOR LICENSE
GRANTED
Application Has Been Made for the
Same Locality for Several
Years and Is at Last
Granted

On Third street, just west of the
tunnel l.. Bouttier will establish a
wholesale liquor dealers store, after
years of effort.
Through two previous administra-
tions the contest was waged, but yes
terday the application went through
without q protest.
one reason for this is that the Bout
tier application was slipped into the
board secretary's desk stealthily, 1t Is
claimed, while the board was en-
crossed with other work, and the usual
weeks notice which is given in all
saloon license cases was not forth
coming in this instance.
1t will be real surprise to nearby
property owners.
Just who is responsible for this is
as yet not known, though Secretary
Charles McKeag says he is not. The
paper came to him unawares.
Bouttler and his sons own the
premises at 81S West Third street one
of the sons conducts a butcher shop
in the building.
He was present at yesterdays ses-
sion, but his spokesman was man
who said he was the largest property
owner in the block.
Il want to speak in behalf of Mr.
Bouttier though L have no interest
in the business" said he.
Object to Blind Tigers
I'VE are trying to build up bust
ness section in the block, there being
only one cottage left. Sentiment of
the owners in that block is In favor
of granting the license.
I'VE have the necessary signatures
except those of the two druggists at
the corners of Flower and Third and
Figueroa and Third. You gentlemen
can judge for yourselves why we did
not get them.
81 will say that if this man does as
large business as is done in the vi
cinity of these drug stores, judged by
the number of times brewery wagons
stop there, he will do well.
1--WE want a store catering to fam
lily and wholesale patronage only. We
want respectable trade with the city
getting revenue out of it rather than
blind tiger trade, catering to retail
business"
Police Chiefs Report
The report of Chief Kern showed
that the necessary frontage had been
secured, 220 of the 800 feet represented
on one side consenting and 230 feet on
the other, Here a 16-foot alley must
be deducted from frontage.
Chief Kern calls attention to the
fact that the Friends church and FIRE.
mont school are some distance away.
Old timers in the city hall recall that
the same permit was up in the Nc
Aleer and Snyder administrations and
that a resolution was passed at the
request of Crown Hills property own
ers requesting that they be notified
If the application was renewed This
resolution was overlooked in this case.
In a previous report on the case by
then Chief F'lammer the church. was
fixed as being 155 PAGES distant and
the Fremont school at 1000 feet, though
the distance was not paced.
Some of those who signed the petit
tion yesterday were Thomas M. Claffy,
George M. Rector, ]. Klatscher, Kath-
crime Klein and d. L. Marcer.
H. c. Wilmer in previous stages of
the proceedings was one of the lead
ers of the opposition.

Father Ubach was typical Spanish
priest, with flowing beard and an erect
figure that spoke of the church militant
as we'll as the church triumphant, but
withal he had one of the most kindly
spirits that ever won friends, with
whom he was surrounded all through
the long years of his ministry.
Last week Bishop Conaty visited the
venerable priest fast nearing his last
days and few days later the last sac
rement of the church was administered
by Father O'Keefe of San Luis Rey
mission and the last few days of life
were spent in quiet and peace by the
priest who had served his church in an
almost new field in new country for
nearly half century.
Owing to the present week being holy
week the funeral services will not be
held until next Wednesday at st.
Joseph's church, San Diego, when
Bishop Conaty will offlciate at the re-
QUEEN mass. The date has been set so
as to give the priests of the diocese
time to assemble to pay their last re-
spects to the oldest of their number.

SOCIETY WOMAN
SECURES DIVORCE
Mrs. H. G. 6undrem Granted an Inter.
Iocutory Decree from Former Polo
Player and Manager of
Jepsen SaddIery

Efforts on the part of mutual friends
failing to effect a reconciliation, Mrs.
H. G. Bundrem, daughter of Millionaire
j. H. Braly, yesterday went before
Judge Conrey of department 5 of the
superior court and secured a decree of
divorce from II. G. Bundrem, the well
known club man, grounds of incon-
stancy and infidelity being alleged.
The Bundrem troubles came into
prominence about a week ago when it
was learned that Dick Bundrem, polo
player of national fame, had managed
through his attorneys to settle up an
account, marked shortage, of $1,000 due
his firm.
The day after Bundrem left Los An
geles, and on that day Mrs. Louis Bum
drem, one of the best known of Los
Angeles matrons of society filed suit
for divorce.
When the case came up for trial yes
terday the evidence was very brief,
made. Private detectives testified as to
having followed Bundrem on several
occasions when he was with we'll known
women of suggestive reputation, and
that they had seen him entertain these
women at little lunches on more than
one occasion.
Mrs. Bundrem gave brief evidence TO
the effect that her husband was fire.
quently away all night and that he al
ways alleged the calls of duty. Further
that he often missed his dinners on
the evenings when the detectives COR
roborated with the evidence of having
seen him at the little dinners at cafes.

FATHER ANTONIO
OF RAMONA DIES
Death Claims Rev. Anthony Ubach
After Forty-seven Years of Labor
Among Indians and
Missions

After a long fight against failing
health, following forty-seven years of
labor in the diocese of Monterey and
Los Angeles, yesterday afternoon death
claimed the venerable Rev. Anthony
Ubach, pastor of St. Joseph's church,
San Diego, and we'll known throughout
California as one of the oldest priests
oe the state and all over the world as
Father Antonio" in Ramona"
For some months Father Ubach has
been in failing health and has reluc-
antly given up, one by one, his many
duties until a few weeks ago an as
slstant was sent to relieve him of his
work. Since that time Father Ubach
has been confined to his bed in St.
Joseph's sanitarium.
Father Ubach, who was a native Of
Spain, came here in 1860 and since that
time served as pastor, but was princi-
pally known for his work among the
Indians. He was one of the few re-
naming and the oldest of the priests
who came to this diocese with the late
Bishop Amat, and was one of the padres
beloved by all alike.
Had Government Missions
Aside from his eccleastical duties
Father Ubach often was entrusted with
important missions by the American
government to the government of
Mexico, and during the incumbency of
General Grant as president, these mis-
sions were notable for the good results
achieved.
Nine years after coming to California
Father Ubach went to Spain for a year
and on returning was given charge of
the work among the Indians of San
Diego county, where he organized the
first school, and VIII re he worked
among the tribes for nearly forty years,
being greatly beloved and implicitly
trusted by the Indians all over the
state. Many times this venerable priest
was called over he boundary line into
old Mexico. where he was equally we'll
known.
AS the years rolled by and more
priests were brought to the then new
country, the work Of Father Ubach was
lessened. but he always had the most
devoted love of the Indian race, and 1t
was he who married the original Ra-
mona and ministered to the wants of
the family that furnished tie story of
the beautiful book by Helen Hunt
Jackson. Father Ubach was also ex-
tremely popular with the sailors that
entered the harbor and was trusted py
them with business subjects as we'll as
his ministry among them.
Helped Wounded Sailors
True I'm his love and work for the sail
ors Father Ubach was among the first
to render aid TO the victims of the ILL
fated Bennington, staying with the suf-
ferers night and day. offering words of
and aiding in the material
of the men. And It was this
venerable white robed priest who read

DR. WARD RETURNS HOME
.AT TELLS DURING SIEGE
Says Russian Troubles Are Exaggerated by Amer
 ican Press.

Dr, Brownlee Robertson Ward, of 264 York street, returned home yester- day after three months trip abroad, spent exclusively in Russia and Tur- key. This is Dr. Wards fourth trip to Russia, and he is a close student of the Russian language and takes a great interest in Russian conditions and affairs.
 On his trip this summer Dr. Ward went direct from Berlin to St. Peters, burg, where he spent a month study ing with Russian tutor and investi- gating fife and conditions in the Rus sian capital He then travelled in the interior, went down the Volga to Sa- tarof and into Astrakan. having many experiences in his travels and learning much of the people. He visited the Caspian sea region, the Baku oil fields and the Caucasian mountain region.
 Tiflis in the Caucasius was in a state of siege when Dr. Ward was there this summer and soldiers were in evidence everywhere. While waiting for his ship to sail at Caspian sea port one l of- the vessels boilers blew up killing number of the crew. This necessi- tated his embarking on a freighter. Later Dr. Ward went to Constanti- nople, Athens and Italy and from there embarked on the Princess Irene of the North German Lloyd line for home.
 In relating his summer travels Dr. Ward lays special emphasis upon the fact that the stories of travelling in any part of Russia being dangerous for an American citizen, or any other foreigner who is armed with proper passports, is ridiculous. One sees nothing of the internal troubles any where. He says that the Russian situation and troubles are very grossly exaggerated by the American press. He Is also of the opinion that the Jews in Russia are the chief trouble makers and that although they arc un- occasionally persecuted they have brought most of the trouble upon their own heads through their ceaseless ln- | trigues.
 Dr. Ward is very deeply interested in Russian literature and has brought home a number of the works of the most popular writers and novelists. Of all the modern Russian novellsts | he thinks that Kokuprin, who recently published "The Duel" which has been freely translated, is the foremost.
