FINE ART AT MARE ISLAND. No More Ammunition to Be Used at the Presidio Until Dynamite Tests Are Made. Brigadier-General J. W. Forsyth is the guest of E. W. Hopkins for a cruise to the upper bay on the latter’s steam yacht. The wife of Colonel Shafter, First United States Infantry, Angel Island, is seriously ck at her island home. The latest re- ports of her illness do notindicate a change for the better. Major Stephen W. Groesbeck arrived in San Francisco last week, and began hisdu- ties as Judge Adyocate of the department. First Lieutenant Franklin P, Bell per- formed the duties of Judge Advocate dur- ing the interval from Colonel Hunter’s de- parture until Major Groesbeck’s arrival. Captain Carrington, First Infantry, U. S. A., serving on the staif of Governor Budd, arrived in this City last week. The cap- tain’s detail for this service will probably extend several months longer. Very little occurred at the Presidio dur- the past week to vary the monotony of garrison duty at that delightful post. The ammunitiou allowed for artillery practice has been expended to the advantage of the service, and there will be nc more firing to peak of until the dynamite guns are tested. Pursuant to instructions from the sistant Secretary of War, a board of survey, consisting of Licutenant-Colonel Johnsen "z 1. Middleton, deputy surgeon-general; | fajor John S. Witcher, paymaster, and st Lieutenant Frank Green, signal of- r, convened recenily at the general | depot of the quartermaster’s department, | San Francisco, to fix the responsibility for | the damaged condition ana for a deficiency | of ¢ in articles of clothing and equipage | at that depot. ieutenant-Colonel Evan Miles has been | ned to station at Benicia Barrack: roops L and K of the Fourth Cavalry, | ave been on duty since last spring | the forests of the Yosemite and Park reservations, will return_to cember 1.

Tt i men ¥ amina Ls Mare Islend Letter, MARE ISLAND, Cav., Nov. 16.—Satur- ovember 9, was distinguished at the v-yard as the occasion of the second quarterly exhibition of the Mare IsIandi Sketch Club. Being also a reception and | high tea, it was an invitation affair, and | the attendance was accordingly exact]\'} such as might be wished. Professor Con- | trado was known to be ambitiou tinguish himself on this occasion by mak- | ing the Independence Band outshine all previous®performances. In a flag-draped alcove to the right of the entrance Mrs. Bradley dispensed “re- | freshers,” as Labouchere would say, the | on the oth ide of the hall. As usual on | festive occasions, the sail loft was roofed | and walled with the flags of all nations. | On a stand near the teatable was & supply of catalogues, the dainty covers or th, | palette and brushes, being the handiwork | of Miss Woods. | The Mare Island Sketch Club has, dur- | ing the six months of its existence, done very faithiu! and conscientious work, the | product of the last quarter showing | marked improvement. From 1ts incep- | tion Professor Chris Jorgensen has regu- | larly spent one day of each week in out- | door and indoor instruction of the ciu | The exhibit comprised over 200 studies. | Mrs. Sewell, unqgestionably far-and-away | beyond the amateur stage of artistship, exhibited no less than fifty pieces, the Bradley hung thirty, and Mrs. Perkin Woods and Miss McCalla made very arge and exceedingly meritorious exhib- its. Mrs. Barker, whose work (all in oils) | was also exceedingly good, being much engaged in literary pursuits, had only about 2 dozen pieces, which was about the average performance of those of the club not specially named. Paymaster Stanton, only a few weeks a member, had three very pretty water- colors, and also three large photographs which excited unlimited admiration. One | f th latter was a partial view of the Mare Island office building, showing the ny and its wonderful wistaria in us bloom. Another was a bridge scene in Alaska, an exquisite example of chiaroscuro—if that term may properly be i applied to photography. The other was | an Alaskan glacier, unfortunately hung so | bigh that the name of the glacier could | studied. Mrs. Bradley’s work, much of it in sepia, | special mention, many of her d exhibiting high talent and pains- taking application. Besides the seven al ready mentioned the club includes Mrs. | Symonds, Mrs. Maxon, Miss Macrae and | Lieutenant Dutton. The work of all the members evinces more or less talent and | very earnest effort. Limits forbid me to particularize further, except to say tnat Mrs. Sewell’s examples were not only numerous, embracing a wide variety of subjects and styles—there being oil paint- ines, water colors, pen and ink, sepia, pastel and pencil—but were also super- excellent bota as to feeling and treatment. Prof r Jorgensen undertook the re- sponsibility of judge and he himself painted an exquisite cliff scene in water color to be awarded for the best picture on | the subject of *“The Day After.” Miss McCalla’s pen and ink sketch, “The Day After Christmas,” depicting a sailor boy suffering from the effects of his holi- | day carousal, took this prize, Professor | Jorgensen having much difficulty in de- ciding_between this and Mrs. Perkins’ | “The Day After Payday,” exhibiting the condition of&)hysical collapse, mental de- pression and moral disgust of an old marine under the influence of the after- math of folly. g The first prize, a framed bas-relief of the wingless goddess of the frieze of the Par- thenon, wae awarded to Miss Woods for her exquisite woodland scene in water- colar—the best piece of work ‘‘done with- out help or instruction” by any member of the club. £ 1t was noticeable that the pictures of this exhibit were with few exceptions land- scapes and figures, only two or three flower pieces appearing.

A large circle of friends, both within_and without the navy, look forward with pleas- ure to their coming. An informal and very delightful affair took place at the commandant’s house several days ago—a sort of mutual admir- ation event, the Mare Island Sketch Club meeting by invitation of Mrs. Howison to view each other’s art work amd listen to the reading of a very interesting and highly instructive paper on Alaska, by Mrs. Franklin H. Drake, wife of Lieutenant- Commander Drake of the Albatross. Mrs. Frederick W.

A week from to-day the cruiser Boston will be put in commission. The most of her officers have been assigned to her. About 200 of the ship’s company have been selected and Lieutenant Harry M. Hodges is on his way out from New York with a draft of thirty apprentice boys for and will be fitted out with the best lot of stores and equipments that have been se- lected for any ship about to go in commis- sion. This is done at the instance of the paymaster-general at Washington, who is anxious for the Mare Island yard to make a record for itseli in this respect, as_many complaints have come up from the United States ship Marion, now somewhere off the lower coast of South America, at the poor quality of stores issued from Mare Islend to her. The most unique feature of it is that the greater portion of the outfit given the Marion are the seif-same stores—that is equipments, such 2s equipment, construc- tion, ordnance, engineers’, paymaster’. and medical—that were passed upon d turned in from the ship as being good in all respects when she went out of com- | mission at the yard some time ago. If they were good then they surely are now, | but there is considerable difference al| ship going out of commission and one going in as to the condition of the outfit. When a ship goes out the officer under whose charge the stores and outlits have been is anxious to make a record for him- | self and endeavors to have all of the things | | | | in his department with the word “good” ked aiter the title by the board of sur- but if he be called upon to accept again from the hands of the general eper he will object to receiving m ve. then storek then, r'his was the case with the Marion stores. They were turned ashore as good and re- issued to the ship. The things were re- ported to the department as being inferior and Mare Island Navy-yard was given a eve for furnishing poor goods. S the reason that the Boston must be supplied with the very best in store. A lot of pork was passed upon as good | and furnished to the Marion, and when opened was pronounced excellent and | nicely flavored, but after remaining open for a while it all turned bad. Officials at. tributed the cause to the porkers running in the tules and feeding on fish, which gives them when first packed a pleasant smell and taste. The pork was condemned, and the firm offerea to replace it with other barrels. When the engines were tested on the Marion at the navy-yard they worked to perfection and were so reported upon by the board of officers, among them being the present chief engineer aboard of ber, who has been ordered home on account of overwork in | keeping them going, and in his stead Chief | Engineer James . Pickerell has been de- by the steamer sailing Monday for the coast, and, on finding the Marion, wiil endeavor to ‘‘grease” up her machinery so Paymasters Henry T. Skelding, Henry C. Machette and Josiah R. Stanton have just been appointed as a special board of survev on 22,000 pounds of navy tobacco recently received from the New York navy-yard for issue to the sailors on the Pacific ana Asiatic stations, and which is pronounced unfit for use. Some of the tobacco was issued to the Marion, Monterey and Inde- pendence, and when drawn out of store by the'men_after a trial they deciared it was “no good’’; when they attempted to ‘‘chew the stuff” it burned their mouths, and at- tempts to light it failed. Jack went to the mast and made a complaintabout the poor 3uality of the stuff, which, of course, was uly reported to the navy-yard. AsJack was thought probably not to be a good judge of the ‘‘weed.”” a plug of it was sent on to the department at Washington for the Secretary of the Navy, the Postmaster- General and other high officials and ex- ! perts to test it. It is believed that it met | with no more favor on their tongues than on the poor blue-jackets’, hence the calling of the present board of survey. A new order has been issued that sailors may wear cotton socks, and “black’’ at that. Heretofore they have all been woolen and gray. Bids were asked for the furnishing of 1000 pair_according to sam- ple. Levee Brothers of Vallejo secured the contract to furnish them at 10 cents a pair. They were delivered and ordered ‘“re- jected” by the board of inspection as not beipz equal to the sample. Levee Brothers appealed to the commandant of the yard, arigid test was made, a chemica! analysis by the chemist at the yard was made, and two thorough scrubbings and twistings and wringings were given the stockings, which stood the tests, and were therefore ordered to be accepted and were so noted, and now the jolly jack tar will encuge his “Trilbys” in’ fine black hose that will stand tke work. Tributes to George Gibbs. Memorial services in honorof the late George Gibbs will be held in the Y. M. C. A. building next Sunday afternoon at 3 o’'clock. Bishop Nichols, the Rev. Dr. Foute, the Rev. Dr. Mac- kenzie ana others will pay tributes to the man the extent of whose quiet philanthropy was not known in his lifetime. He gave $46,- 000 toward the Y. M. C. A. building alone, and for almost eleven years he was president of the local institution, To-day the last sad rites will be observed in Grace Church over the remains. | THE GAVHEID WHALERS Mariners Interested in Their Demand for Diplomatic Inquiry. \ COMPLICATIONS OF THE CASE. Question as to Captain Shorey’s Citizen- ship—One Prisoner a German Subject. The case of the three whalers of the Gay- head charged with trying to set the ship on fire in the Honolulu barbor last March and their threats to demand satisfaction of the Hawaiian Government for their im- prisonment and detention without a hear- ing, set seafaring men to talking yester- day. It is a complica_ted case and its various circumstances involye many im- portant questions in maritime law. Attorney G. W. Monteith spent part of tne day looking up the Revised Statutes of the United States, and he expects to be able to rout the enemy easily at the hear- ing of the men before Commissioner Heacock to-morrow morning. Editor McArthur of the Coast Seaman’s Journal is incidentally intere:ted and Sec- retary Andrew Furuseth of the Sailors’ Union of the Pacific will bring the matter up for some kind of action as soon as pos- sible. The Sailors’ Union has made many a hard fight for men who were not mem- bers or could not be. It hason itsrecords numerous instances of violation of law, such as the Empire and Arago cases. The affair of the Empire occurred also at Hono- lalu. 2 The Gayhead case seems to have no ex- act precedent, however. The custom has been to make a distinction without much of a difference between seamen and whalers. The only real distinction is that the men ship ona “lay” instead of for a wage. Anent this an old salt observed: “The distinction if anything, in favor of the whaler under the law,and by it he may claim a right to libel the ship and her cargo for what may bedue him as his share of the cargo on hi it Two new questions of great importance as bearing on the case have arisen since Saturday. They concern the status of Captain Shorey and Prisoner Gehrmann. As has been stated Shorey issaid to be a hative of Barbadoes Island and of African descent. His zenship is therefore to be challenged on the ground that he cannot legally be a master of an American vessel unless he can show that he has been nat- uralized. His principal witness, Rigby, agamst the three white men, is also re- ported to* be a Barbodoes Island native, the other witness being a hali-Malayan. Gehrmann s he is a subject of Em- peror William. The gossips of the water- iront say the fact that he was a sailor un- der the American flag is enough to entitle him to consideration as_an American man in his claim against the Hawaiian Government, and his actual citizenship is not material unless he wishes to take ad- | vantage of it. Editor McArthur looked up the last re- port of the Commissioner of Navigation giving the laws relating to mariners and jurisdiction. The law is not very cléar as to the junisdiction of American seamen in | foreign ports, but intimates that, as is cus- tomary, the American diplomatic repre- entatives have full authority. Charges ainst seamen, however, must be prop- y entered in the logbook and the men given opportunity to answer, the answers also to be recorded. The,three men say their second arrest was not authorized at | Honolulu by Consul Milis, and for that reason they want an investigation through the Department of State. As to shipping men without an agree- NEW TO-DAY. “Pure and Sure.” BAKING POWDER, Only rounded spoonfuls are required—no# feaping spoonfuls. | open their second weak at the Columbia.

Itis a most humeorous produc- tion with many funny situations, and with Leonard Grover in the leading part, it will, nsl Eastern critics have said, be irresist- ible. The management of the Tivoli Opera- house will this evening present ‘‘Carmen,” by Bizet. In this well-known opera Emelie ){bi\'ille will this evening appear as Car- men the cigarette girl, who subsequently becomes a gypsy, and during the week she will alternate in this character with Alice Carle. Martin Pache will appear as Don Jose, the brigadier. At the Orpheum there is a rich treat in store for ihe patrons of the house this evening.

Pathetjc stories were told of the nightly tramps of men who had béen re- duced, by no deserts of their own, to a homeless condition. “We want to _help men before they are forced to beg,” 'said the earnest pleader who presented the subject to the society’s council on Thursday evening. *“If they are able to pay for their accommodations in time, all right; if not, all right. But I don’t want the blood of the suicides, who take their lives because they are utterly without hope, upon the heads of San Franciscans. There are no people on the face of the globe more liberal than the people of San Francisco, but the trouble is they o not give alms judiciously. “There should be one place where men may be sure of a night's shelter, whether thev are able to pay a cent or not. I tell vou, the echo of the tramp, tramp of the omeless men who walk our streets at night because, like the Christ, they have nowhere to lay their heads, is as sound as can De heard in the world’s great chorus of misery.” 3 Judge J. M. Burnett, the president of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, ap- inted_a committee, composed of Rey, ‘ather Prendergast, J. C. Murphy and Mr. Henderson, to confer with Archbishop Riordan in regard to the establishment of such a home, and it was instructed to make its report at the next meeting of the council. The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul is one of the strongest organizations for charitable work in the world. Itsbranches extend to Bombay and Damascus. It numbers in San Francisco 200 members, whose ministrations are confined to no sect or creed. DONALD M, OSS ADDRESS He Spoke Eloquently on National Ills and the Right Medicine. His Remarks Frequently Enthusias- tically Applauded by a Large Audience. Yesterday at the Metropolitan Temple, Donald M. Ross and Mrs. M. E. Richard- son, president of the W. A. P. A, of Cali- fornia, spoke to a large audience. The sentiments they uttered evoked frequent and enthusiastic applause. The following programme was rendered : Organ voluntary, Prof. E. Werner; opening of meeting, 'W. Quitzow, chairman; “America,” Choral Society and audience; prayer, Rey. C. A. Rabing; Our Baby Mearns; preiude, Mrs. . E. Richardson; “Viva T'’America,” Choral Society; organ solo, pa- triotic music, Prof. E. Werner; address by Donaid ». Ross; ‘Columbia the Gem of the Ocean,” Choral ‘Society and audience; post- lude, Prof. E. Werner. Mrs, Richardson, after referring to the North Beach scandal in her address, had likened the A. P. A. organization to a bee hive, and Donald M. Ross, in his address on “National Evils and the Right Medi- cine,”” took that remark for the keynote of his theme. “Ithink,” said he, “a bee hive is the best descrintion of the A. P. A.that I have ever yet heard. We are in existence as an organization because that just so many men as we are bave been encroached upon and we have gone out asa hive of bees with our stings sharpened. There is not a land on the face of this round earth that is more let alone by outside interference than America. Over in Europe every country is_propped up by bayonets. If there is a single ill in America, 1t is within it, in its own municipal government, throughout the United States. “We are not in the A.P. A. merely for fun; we are here to fight and struggle and until we get purity on top. “I believe that this ill would be removed if every child was made to attend the | schools right along until he or she arrived at_the age of discretion. Then these children would not be compelied to wan- der the streets and enter these dens of corruption, but would go to the little red schoolhouse. “I_believe in barring no child of any creed or nationality whatever from the public schools, but I do not believe in private schools. Every school should be under the Government. This would re- move the ills from this country. “The A.P.A.will tramp on until the day will come when it will triumph over all' and Americanism will be dominant.” —————————— Pickpockets at the Chutes.
