Suddenly Ezeta whipped out his sword, and_after a few swipes at the smoke-la T arise and receive a steady job.

It is my wish. Rise, General Casin, and here’s luck.” The two generals then formed a phalanx and closed in on the rest of the wine, which went down before them in a trice. On the following day, late in the after- noon, General Casin went post haste to the place of one Litchfield, a military and Ma- sonic tailor, and had a uniform made that was in keeping with the dignity of his office. In the meantime his superior, the Central American Falstaff, was preparing a plan of campaign in which Casin was to play an important part. The curtain on that act bas not gone up yet, but is about ready to hoist, as General .Casin is said to have left the City for Acapulco, where he will meet his general and two others of the faithful preparatory to tearing the very heart out of Guttierrez and scattering the latter’s followers all over Central America, A. F. Ballen, the Consul in this§City of Ecuador, who was a witness at the ap- pointment of Casin in the California Hotel, states that the story is true and that in bis opinion Ezeta 1s a romancer and a master of grand-stand plays. When Mr. Ballen was approached on the question of his as- sociation with Ezeta and Casin he was at first reluctant to admit that he was famil- iar with the extravagant threats and im- | Open evenings.

He would not dwell on the subject, however, when asked to tell of it in detail. “There 13 nothing in that to speak of,” he said. “Three scoundrels, bent on mur- dering Ezeta, who was a very sick man at the time, sneaked to the place in which we were housed. They took several shots at us and then made their escape in the dark. I bad removed the General into a safer po- sition prior to the fusillade,2and when it occurred I took a few shots myself at the retreating villains. They were captured and are now 1n jail.” Mr. Duryee expects to remain here a montb and then return to his post of duty. He Used a Revolver. Frank Robles, & shoemaker, was arrested last evening by Officer B. F. Rathton and Spe- cial Policeman Berge, at the instance of Ven- tura Jimenez and booked at the California- street station on a charge of assault to murder. Robles and Jimenez, who have been unfriendly for some time, met i inckley alley ana ex- changed words which culminated in Robles emptying a revolver at his enemy.

Telling Ev‘idencz Against the Solid Eight Supervisors and Their Attorney. “Who is the prominent attorney who is charged with being the broker or go-be- tween between the franchise-seekers and the Solia Eight of the Board of Suver- visors?” That is the question that is now agitating the public. The Grand Jury is in possession of the man’s name, and when he returns from his duck-hunting expedition to-day, he will unquestionably be summoned to tell all he knows regarding the magnetic influ- ence he possesses with the eight stalwart City fathers, which enables him to have business favors granted or refused at his own sweet will. TrE CALL of yesterday published in de- and the attorney entered into a compact | to secure a franchise for a garbage crema- | tory. The sensational disclosures are the | talk of the City, and as they meet or pass | each other more attorneys and politicians | than one are glancing sideways in suspi- cion at each other. The disclosures have stirred up consider- able muddy water, and, with the evidence which has been furnished the Grand Jury, | the names of people implicated and the | nature of their dealings, it will notbe long ! before some slimy fish will be landed from | the dark ooze in which they have been swimming. The mysierious attorney figures in| scrutinv will settle the matter of guilt be- yond a doubt in the minds of thie Grand urors. In the case of saloon-keeper Langdon, who claims that he reluctantly paid Con- tractor Martin Galhiher $125 for a permit from the Solid Eight to build a wooden front to his place of business, which money | was subsequently refunded to him, the i principals in the affair appear sorry now that they ever opened their mouths on the | snbject.” Langdon religiously made him- ‘ self scarce around his place of business, preferring,as his employes intimated, to | go out into the countr{ with his little girl. | As to Martin Gallagher, he may havere- " sided, as the Directory states, at 630 Polk | street, but every effort to see him there | yesterday proved futile. “There have been forty peopla here to- day to see Mr. Gallagher,” the lady of the house stated when an 1nguiry was made for the contractor. “He is not in and youn need not stay here, for you won’t see him. In fact, he does not live here, and I don’t know where you may find him.” Then, bang, went the front door and the impatient lady hurriedly ran to the parlor window to peek through the blinds o see the effect of her action on the visitor. Of the forty callers a half dozen were newspaper men and the remainder con- tractors and politicians anxious to learn which way the wind was blowing. Gallagher is a valued patron of a couple of Market-street saloons, where he and his intimates spend much of their time and money. Under usual circumstances his headquarters need not be visited more than a couple of times before he is encountered. But yesterday he was not to be seen any- where, the employes cf the places invan- WOULD-BE MEN And “Has-Beens’ Are the Melane choly Fates of Too Many of Our Younger Generation.

In the balloon race between Professors Markeberg, Weston and Burke, announced to come off at the Haight-street grounds yesterday, Burke and Weston got off all { right, but Markebarg was left behind be- | cause of an accident.

Mrs. Cruzan, wife of the pastor | of Park Church, presided at the piano. | There was no reference in the sermon to the speaker’s embarrassing position, but | at the close he explained that he was| there by reason of what appeared to be an | error. Hehad been waited upon by repre- | sentatives of Park Church, who said toeir organization was about to disband. and would be glad to dispose of its furnishings and transfer its rental to Howard Church. The transfer was accomplished and he | made all arrangements for the change of | services, his first intimation that the | transfer was illegal having been received | from Rev. J. K.

Tanner, president of the California Mormon Mission, discoursed | yesterday evening in Pythian Castle on | “The Object and Destiny of Mormonism."’ | He said in part: The harmoni growth of man s development and perfect the Mormon ideal of perfec- | tion. Mormonism, so called, has several ob- jeets in view, the increase of spiritual aspira- tions and a’ perfect knowledge of heavenly things. Our desires are to create proper environments that the air we breathe may be morally pure, | and that the spirijual, intellectual and physi- cal food may be productive of health and de- velopment. The first visit to a large city fills one with horror; he finally becomes passive, and if antidotes are not administered he soon par- | takes of the stigma which surrounds him. A | relative cause in any capacity produces the same effect. Thorough intellectual develop- ment at the expense of the moral will produce & wreck, so if either the spiritual, physical, moral or intellectual self is neglected a de- formity is the resuls. Mormonism in its true sense is a perfect sys- | tem of education, though some of its phases we are unable to fully develop because of the con- ditions with which we are surrounded; but it is destined to be heralded in all the world as & witness unto all nations, to become a great mountain and fill the whole earth.

It only remained to ask whether it was desired to bring the question to a vote again. He called for an expression of opinion, and all the mem- bers voted for its continuance. It was also decided by vote that Mr. Cruzan’s resignation, submitted as dependent upon the disbanding of the church, should not be accepted. There was but one dissenting voice and vote, and that because of Dr. Cruzan’s be- ing one of the high-salaried men of the de- nomination, the objector, Mr. Sprague, stating that Park Church in its present condition should not try to hold a minis- ter whocould command a high salary any- where. A business meeting will be held next Sunday evening for the further considera- tion of the finances. Fortunately Dr. Cruzan has not for- mally accepted the call to Olivet Church, which fact somewhat reduces complica- tions. Mr. Harrison stated that much interest had been revived by the church’s action; that the Home Missionary Society would continue its contribution. Dr. W. D. Williams had personally pledged $1000 toward a church building, and_tbatin ali probabiiity before Howard Church was completed Park church would also have a building. THE HANDBALL COURTS. Several Exciting Games Played — The Occidental Club to Give s Ban- quet in The Alley. Several exciting games were played in the bandball courts yesterday. At the Occidental the veteran, J. C. Nealon, and R. Linehan played against T. F. Bonnet and Ed Maloney. The latter team avoided defeat in the fourth game by one ace, and finally lost the match by the grand finish of Nealon. At the San Francisco court J. Lawless and Al Pennoyer played against J. Carroll and M. Dillon, and won the match in three straight games, but Car- roll and Dilion had their revenge by de- feating Lawless and Pennoyer in another match. The attraction at tiie Union court was a match between Pennoyer and R. Linehan and Dillon and J. J. Feeney, the two former winnin%.
