MIA Industry Promises Good
Results for Growers

Assured of the support of commercial
bodies throughout the country, the
financial assistance OF vast railroad in
terests and widespread advertising
through the mediums controlled by
large wholesale houses, the citizens of
Fresno express increasing confidence
that "Raisin day." April so, will prove
a great success. 1t is certain that the
campaign of education regarding the
good value of the raisin will result
in the consumption of vast quantities
Of the fruit in all parts OF the union
on the day of celebration, and it is
hoped that increased knowledge con-
cerning the health giving properties
of the edible will result in an aug
mented demand on the growers.
VALUE AS FOOD F
Taking as a basis for their conten-
tion that the raisin ranks with bread
and meat in health giving properties,
the citizens of Fresno have inaugurated
a far reaching campaign of advertising
They have set apart April 80 as a day
on which raisins shall constitute an
essential part OF the meals in every
household, thereby securing country
wide demonstration.
Different chambers of commerce and
boards of trade throughout the state
have already notified the committee at
Fresno of their hearty cooperation in
the work of building up this one of
CaIifornia's industries.
The Southern Pacific and New York
Central railroad companies have inter-
ested themselves in the movement, and
have already issued thousands and
thousands of circulars calling attention
to the celebration of Raisin day in
Fresno They have also contracted to
furnish to all of their patrons in their
dining cars April 80 raisins free of
charge.
FAR REACHING ADVERTISING
The Fresno committee has already
sent letters to hundreds of the largest
stores in the country urg-
ing them TO have window displays or
raisins on April 30, and many assur-
ances have been received that the sug-
gestion will be followed.
Practically every medium Of adver-
Using has been resorted to, and it is
expected that not only will the cam
paign result in. the disposal of $4,000
tons of raisins now on hand, but also
in the establishment of a healthy
market

ROSS AND DAVIS
MAY MEET HERE

unique and interesting athletic
event may take place in Honolulu
in the near future. Some time in the
fall it is quite possible that Duncan
Ross and "Tug'' Davis, the two great
broadsword experts of the United
States, may meet at the Athletic Park
in an exhibition on horseback and foot.
Sergeant Davis passed through 40
nolulu on the transport Sheridan AMI
Immediately went to look for his OH
side-kicker Ayres. He stated that he
was in the best of condition and felt
himself to be a better swordsman than
he ever was.
He is now with the 146th Artillery
Corps but will be retired in few
months and will stop in Honolulu on his
way back from Manila. 1t is more than
possible that Duncan Ross will be
brought here to meet Davis for the
world IS championship and, if the bout
is arranged, it will ne one of the most
novel and interesting events ever wit
messed here.
Davis first passed through Honolulu
in 1898 with the End U. S. " Engineers.
He was then sergeant of company l.
of San Francisco, the crack company
of the regiment. hif
He distinguished himself in the Phil.
ippines and was mentioned for con-
spicuous bravery at Subig bay. After
the war he returned to San Francisco
and was, for a long time, overseer at
the Preside.
He is now first sergeant in the 14Bth
! Artillery and will retire shortly, after
, twenty years service, with first SER
geant's pay. Shortly after the San
| Francisco fire he married a wealthy
woman of San Francisco and states that
he is ready to quit soldering and settle
| down to quiet autumn of life but he
wants to have one more go with the
swords before he gives it up.
Davis is the present champion of the
| world. He has defeated both Duncan
Ross and Baron Ivan Malsheau for the
! title. Another contest between him
and Ross would be magnificent event
and one that would doubtless draw
huge crowd.
Davis thinks that Ross would not be
! averse to trip to Hawaii for the pur-
pose of again meeting the present cham
pion and there is more than a possi.
bility that the present successful lro-
moters of athletic events will take the
matter mp and arrange meeting be-
tween these two.

WANTS TO REMOVE
FLAWS IN SYSTEM
HITCHCOCK WOULD REFORM
MONEY ORDER SERVICE
Committee of Experts to Eradicate
Kinks In Method and Submit
Report by December
I, Next

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Already
engaged in an overhauling of the reg
istry system of the postal service, Post
master General Hitchcock has gone a
step further and set number of ex-
perts at work to eradicate some of the
kinks of the money order service with
the view of obtaining greater efficiency
and less expenditure.
This committee of experts is to re-
port not later than December 1. 1t con-
sists of Arthur NJ. Travers, chief clerk
in the office of third assistant post
master general; Frank E. Little, post
office inspector; Edwin Sands, assistant
superintendent of the division of for
eign mails; Henry D. Temple, assistant
superintendent of the division of reg
istered mail, and Robert S. Wood,
chief of the division of correspondence.
The advisability of dispensing with
mail advices to postmasters after a
money order has been issued will be
one of the reforms to be considered.
1t is estimated this would save half
million dollars a year. The wisdom of
reviving the postal note, abolished by
congress in 1894, will also receive
attention,

SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS ARE
ScoRcHED BY BURNING BRUSH

SANTA CRUZ, Sept. 15.-Oppressive
heat and dense cloud of smoke drift
ing from the mountains to the seasfore
mark the progress of fires burning in
four different localities of the Santa
Cruz mountains today.
At the head of Pescadero creek, near
the saw mill Of White g. De Hart, one
blaze in the timber has devastated
many acres back Of Watsonville. 1t is
reported to have made rapid progress
Tor a day and night, but is now be-
lieved to be under control. The burned
area extends from the Iona Prista side
of the valley in the direction of Gilroy.
A large force of fire fighters opposed
the flames when they threatened to
spread toward Watsonville, where the
heat menaced the apple crop.
Although timber is burning north of
the redwood park in the Big Basin,
report today says the state preserve is
in no danger. Fires are burning at
the head of Corralitos creek, at the
head of Sequel creek and in the region
between Wright's station and the
Guadeloupe quicksilver mines. The
loss in timber is heavy, but the noun
tain ranches have thus far escaped
destruction.

five times as great as before the war.
"At Vladivostok before I left, re-
view of $4,000 troops was held and not
one man was taken from the fortifica-

Mr.. Denbigh broght news of a rich
gold discovery made by Russians in
Mongolia about fifty or sixty miles
distant from Kisk Ia, the big walled
city which has been for centuries one

HEAVY FOG SAVES APPLE
CROP NEAR WATS0NVILLE
Temperature Is Lowered IS Degrees
After Several Days of OPP
pressive Heat

WAESONVILLE, Cal. Sept ia
heavy fog rolled in from the ocean to-
night, lowering the temperature fifteen
degrees in a short time and dispelling
all fear of the destruction of the apple
crop by the heat. The thermometer
was still falling late in the evening
and cooler weather is expected to-
morrow.
The mercury registered 80 degrees in
the shade eat noon. For the last two
days 1t has fiuctuated between 85 and
So degrees, and the apple growers of the
valley feared that the failure of several
years ago when similar conditions ex-
listed might be repeated The crop is
unusually large this year and is esti-
mated at from $2.5O0.0O0 to $4,000, 900.
A forest fire which climbed from the
Santa Clara side of the range to the
hill tops todap added to the uneasiness
of the ranchers.
1t was feared the conflagration would
sweep the southern slope of the hills.
With the change in the wind, the iire
was quickly brought under control this
afternoon

PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 15.-The cell

which began here tonight, was marred
by a sensational incident when L..
Gutierrez Delara, a supposed resident
OF Los Angeles, was forcibly elected
from the speaking stand on the city

the assembled MeXicans as refiec-
ton on President Diaz and the Mex
lean government.
Delara was a well known associate
of Villareal and Magon during their

outdoor speeches here for a few days
and was courteously invited by the
chairman tonight to make appropriate
remarks to the assemblage, but as he
progressed his speech gradually drift

faith. The audience and chairman
asked him to desist. Refusing, he was
forcibly stopped but not arrested.
