The Nobles ol the Myotic Shrine closed the festivities of the day -with a parade, both grotesque and picturesque. There were bashi-ba-iouks, cowboys, Indians, ox teams, Arab patrols In rich Turkish costumes, and floats representing various scenes. The incongruous procession, marched down Market street under a canopy of light made by thousands of incandescent lamps euspended across the street. It is esti mated that 10.000 men "were In line. The line of march was from Market and Ulnth streets to Montgomery, counter marching to Ninth. Following Grand Marshal Reuben P. Hurlburt was a corps of mounted buglers from the Presidio. Imperial Potentate Shaffer and Illustrious Potentate Murphy, of Islam Temple, in a carriage preceded two wagon trains, each drawn by eight yoke of oxen. The trains were filled with pioneers. During the progress of the parade, a band of In dians attacked the train, but were re pulsed by cowboys. A feature of the parade jwas a iioat representing the counties of California. Each county was represented by a young lady dressed In white. Another float represented a cotton-picking scene. A number of devils portrayed a mock initiation scene. An other special feature was the maneuvers of the Arab patrols. Tomorrow's programme Includes excur sions to Mount Tamalpais and Berkeley in the forenoon. In the afternoon Al Malaih Temple, of Los Angeles, will hold a reception at the Palace Hotel. The day will conclude -with a promenade concert at the Pavilion. The Council opened Its 2Sth annual ses sion this morning in Golden Gate Hall. The meeting was preceded by a parade, which, though intended merely as an es cort for the Imperial officers, was quite an imposing display. It Included about 1500 Nobles, some of them mounted and many in picturesque Oriental attire. Grand Mar shal R. P. Hurlbut, with his staff and aids, rode in the lead, immediately fol lowed by a mounted bugle corps. Then came a body of men, all In white, eave their red fezes, with flowing white capes, forming a strong contrast -with the black horses, they rode. Another body of aides preceded a band, which nlavcd wild Eastern muolc, to which marched the Arab Patrol, which followed. Then came a succession of bands and gorgeously attired nobles on foot and on horseback. At Intervals the various drill corps performed bewildering evolutions, and were enthusiastically cheered by the thousands of spectators who lined the sidewalks. The Denver band -and drum corps preceded a carriage drawn by four black horses, in which rode Imperial Potentate Shaffer and Past Im perial Deputy Potentate Field. A long line of carriages, containing the delegates to the Imperial Council and their guests of honor brought up the rear of the proces sion. On arriving at Golden Gate Hall, the imperial eecort halted, opened ranks and stood with drawn 6cimetars, while the dls- tlngulshed officials passed Into the build ing. The paraders then dispersed and an open session of the Imperial Council -was opened with prayer and music. Past Im perial Potentate Field then introduced Il lustrious Potentate Charles H. Murphy, of Islam Temple, who, on behalf of the Cali fornia Nobles, welcomed the pilgrims to . this "Western oasis. Mayor Scbmltz then 'welcomed the Shrlners on behalf of the people of San Francisco, and extended to them the freedom of he city. The coun cil then went into secret 'business session. The committee on credentials made its report and standing committees were ap pointed. Imperial Potentate Shaffer de livered his annual message to the Imperial Council on the condition of the order in JCorth America and Its progress during the past year. The record of the past year is the proudest of any year in the history of the order, showing a gain o 8000 Nobles in the jurisdiction, with 0 temples In the TJnlted States, two in Canada, and one in Hawaii. The increase In the finances equals that in numbers, and is the largest known in the order. While no new tem ples have been instituted during the past year, applications are on hand for temples in Galveston, Tex.; Rpanoke, Va.; Seattle, "Wash., -with, several other localities to be beard from during the session, Reports were received from the treas urer, recorder and the standing commit tees, all of which were most gratifying. The election of officers is not expected to occur until tmorrow, though in accordance with time-honored custom, it is certain that Deputy Imperial Potentate H. C. Aiken, of Omaha, will be chosen imperial potentate -without opposition. The other officers will be advanced one rank, ex cept the treasurer and recorder, who -will be re-elected. The only contest will be over the place of imperial Oriental guide, which is the stepping-stone for the higher places. For this position 31 delegates have been named Ind there may be more In the field. At an executive sef'slon of the Imperial Council, Saratoga Springs, N. Y., "was chosen as the place for holding the next annual meeting on the second "Wednesday 'jx July, 1903. GRADUATED BY COLLEGE. Virst Class From Commercial De-' pnrtment at McMInnvllle.

CAMP OFFICERS SURE UXDEBWOOD IS STILL AT TOKJEXAXD. Came Out of Woods to Get Fresh "Water Sotne ThiaJc Fire May1 Have Been Blind. SOUTH BEND, Wash., June 10. The authorities aro much encouraged over fresh evidence found by them today that Underwood, tho alleged murderer of his three-weeks-old babe. Is still In. the vicin ity of Tokeland. This morning, about 11 o'clock, they found near the road con necting North Cove and Tokeland, about half way between the two points, the coals of a camp fire, which were still warm, the fresh tracks of a man, and evidences of where he bad spent the nlcht. The fire was on the bank of a small stream, where he had come for fresh water, the water in that neighbor hood being brakish and unfit to drink, except at a few points. Sheriff Honey, of this- county; Sheriff Cudlhee, of King County, and a posse of about 15 are hot on the trail of the fugitive. Some fear, however, that the fire was built as a blind by Indians. Two reliable men are posi tive that they saw Underwood at Knapp ton, on the Columbia, boarding a boat for Astoria, last Saturday evening, or at least a man who answers to his description. A rancher's wife. Mrs. Miller, is equally positive that a man answering to Under wood's description passed her home, -on the trail from Riverside to Cosmopolls. not be nominated, and that no former member of the Legislature who accepted a pass from the railroads wijl be supported by the Democrats for anirLeglslatlve po Mtion. The interview ha precipitated a hot fight by Mackay'o friends against Chairman Doncen. and an effort is being made to secure "his removal as chairman when tho convention meets in Colfax on June 28.

Accord ing to Information sent here todiy by Marshal Graham, up to last night tho in vestigation of every rumor of seeing Un derwood, the alleged child murderer, In various places south of Wlllapa Harbor had been thoroughly looked up and prov en false, and that both hlmsolf, Sheriff Cudlhee, who Is still with him, and the other officers are confident that Under wood is still north of Shoalwatcr Bay, and that tho whole force will remain in that section to keep up the hunt Gra ham also says that Underwood is not rirmed. they having traced down lll clues of his having bought a gun, and cannot verify the report Sheriff Huff is still at his home In Montesano, and-pays he never made the statement Imputed to him by the Westport people that he was afraid to follow Underwood and attempt his cap ture after dark last Saturday night He had been out on tho hunt for three days and nights without rest, and his work in directing tho searching parties sent out from Tokeland was an evidence that he wa3 only too willing to make every effort to catch tho fugitive if he could get near enough to him to do it Disastrous Fire r.t Mitchell, B "Wind Blows Hurricane.

A nug get containing $330 in gold was recently picked up Just south of Josephine- Coun ty and over the state line, by Samuel Gardner, a road supervisor. Tho odd feature of the nugget is its shape that of a human hand. Invthis respect nothing llko It has ever before been found in the surrounding mining districts. The nugget is not solid gold. Tho yellow metal is artistically embedded in a clear, white quartz, which by some remarkable com bining of nature has assumed the shape and sire of a woman's hand, partly opened.

In a few days the entire wool clip of the Yakima Valley for the season will have been disposed of. The largest purchase thus far was made last Saturday by George Abbott, representing the -worsted mills at Passaic, N. J., ho taking 600 bales of 350 pounds each at 9 to 10 cents a pound. Mr. Abbott also took 300 bales of wool from Ellensburg at the same fig ures. This wool Is being compressed at Coffin Bros warehouse, where a three bag press is in operation. Still remain ing in the warehouse are tho following clips: Coffin Bros., 700 bales; A. V. Wil son, 200 bales; Charles McAllister, 250 bales; Alexander McAllister, 200 bales; E. H. Sanford, 100 bags; Cramer Bros., 120 bags; Forest Wenner, 60 bags. It is ex pected that these will be sold Before the end of tho week. The situation in the valley has been Just about the same this year as it was last year, in quantity, quality and prices, and the product is as large as ever In Cen tral Washington. Over 5,000 fleeces were takon at Coffin Bros.' shearing plant, quite an increase for this concern. Tho farmers seem to be taking more kindly to the power machines, as experience has demonstrated that the closer cut results in about a pound more per fleece than can be obtained by hand shears. A big de crease in production of wool is expected next year and the present scasons clip may never be equaled. The action of tho Government authorities In cutting down the number of sheep permitted to rango the forest reserve has placed the grow ers on tho anxious seat, and they are cudgeling their wits to decide what to do with half of their flocks, for which there Is now no public grazing land. Nearly half of the -flocks will have to be sold bo fore shearing tlmo next year, and many are already going on the market. The township Is in the S'letz Reservation, near Kemville.

Berry .Shipments From Hood River. HOOD RIVER, Or., June 10. Six cars of berries were shipped yesterday, and six cars today. The total shipments, in cluding locals,, for the past two days. Is about S500 crates. It is thought next Mon day will be the banner day for the season. The berries in the upper valley are Just beginning to come In. Prices are holding up remarkably well. There never was a better quality, and they have never 'been in better condition than at this time, which, probably accounts for the contin ued excellent prices. The continued .cool weather has aided1 materially In maturing the berries gradually, tKereby insuring the handling of the crop with ease. Tide-Land Lease Taken Up. OLYMPIA, June 10.

Since my girlhood ! have suffered agonies every month at the time of my mcnsrsial periods and always had to remain in bed two or three days at that time. Father spent hundreds of dollars with doctors but 1 found as I jjrtw older iht pains Increand. A neighbor who called one day when I was sick advised me to try your Wine of Cardui. 1 sent for a bottle and used It faithfully during tit month and to my surprise found that at the next period my pains were very much lessened and in another month 1 was perfectly well. This is a year ago and during that time I have had neither ache nor pain, thanks to Wine of Cardui."
