Valentine Holt's great-great-grandson is a member of the Sons of the American Revolu- tion, and was the only member of the National Society ever admitted under age.

The Legend of the Chimes” was ren- dered by R. P. Evans, Mrs. Geu:fie L. Darling, Miss Alice Partridge and L. A. Larsen, Roscoe Warren Lucy being the accompanist. This was followed by a reci- tation, “The Horseman in the Sky,” by Miss Daisy Kimbal, in a feeling manner. Colonel J. C. Currier, on behalf of Mrs. Lelana Stanford, presented to the society a handsome flag, which was received with fitting words, spoken with a ring of patriot- ism, by Miss Sara Cone Bancroft, the vice- president, who placed it in the keeping of Color-bearer Ross, who stood between Selden Stuart Tallant and John Drury Tallant, beautiful children, attired in colonial costumes of velvet and wearing white wigs. I'he singing of the “Star-spangled Ban- ner” by Miss Darling, the audience stand- ing while it was sung, was followed by a recitation by Miss Hattie V. Martin.

H. George, M.D. The banquet was held in the cafe of the mid decorations of the se Colunel J. C. Currier ped for order and acted as toastmaster. | The toast of *'George Washington” was responded to by E. W. McKinstry, pre: lert of the society. Mr. McKinsiry said | that had Washington lived to-duy he would have commanded the respect and love of the people, and yet could not have the same name for himseli among rich of the cities. Washington, the , once nown was loved. es might be cited to show his tary talent. There were many ter warriors, but his accomplishm ffensive and defensive in his limited sphere—were enough to make men believe he would have ranked among the greatest of warriors on larger tattlefields. When he had accomplished his hard and arduous task of the revolution he laid down the insignia of power and retired to the simple home life for which he had longed throughout his tumuituous career. Washington deserved men’s affection, as well as_esteem. He wasnot alone first in var and first in peace, but during his life he was first in the hearts of his fellow citizens. C. L. P. Marrais responded to the toast of “France, Our Sister Republic.” He compared the two republics, and showed a similarity between the ifrec institutions of each. *“The Army and the Navy” was received with enthusiasm, and Colonel J. G. C. Lee, U. 8. A., responded to the toast. The sub- j h, the speaker declared, that he felt timid in speaking for the army and navy. A member of the army or navy be- comesan integral partof either;they existed long before he came, and they will remain aiter he has gone. He is, as it were, but a1aote in the sunbeam. With this intro- duction he changed his theme to i canism and said that the soirit of 1 was the truest kind of Americanism. There was enough left, but much of that is now too strongly engrafted on other move- ments not good for the American nation. Unrestricted immigration demanded the consideration of America, he said. It was a leaven that needed to be purged out. The army of the United States, it is vopularly believed, can at any time be in- creased 10 8,000,000 able-bodied men; but they need to be disciplined and provided for, and that is why there is a small stand- ing arn He charged the Revolutionary hat they should® remember the The Nation should pay an in- surance—the cheapest insurance it could pay—and make the army a little larger. Five millions a year would be_only $100,- 000,600 in twenty years. The War of the Rebellion cost America more than ten times as much. Colonel Lee declared that coast defenses and a proper navy were absolutely neces- iry. Speaking of Hawali, he said: Hawail is the outpost of this coast. It is as essential to the safety of the whole coast as the heights of the Golden Gate are to San Francisco.” He held that the United States should possess Hawaii and of the Pacific Coast should pray for the Nicaragua canal. aul spoke to the “Order of the icinnati.’’ He gave the history of this illustrious society and coming down to the present time said that the success of the Revolution, and, therefore, of the Order of the Cincinnati was due to France largely, and now the French Republic is 1o a great extent the result of the Ameri- can Revolution. The address of Colonel A.D. Cutler, who was unable to be present, was read by Ed- win Bounnell, secretary of the order. It was upon the aims and purposes of the Robert I. Brom At . Worthington Hubbard. | ‘California Sops of the American Revolu- tion.” Judge Williams delivered an impromptu speech on “The Judiciary.” Other in- formal specches were made by Samuel W, Holladay, J. W. Ward, C. E. King and J. M. Bailey A Dog Brought the Pardon. It wasa dog that brought liberty to a convict in the Kentucky penitentiary re- cently. The intelligent brute acted as a messenger between Governor Brown and the felon, carrying the pardon in its mouth from the executive mansion to the prison, and, after gaining admittance, to the recipient of clemency himself. The dog is the property of the Governor, and the convict is O. G. Garden of Louisville, who was sentenced two years ago to serve a term of eight years for manslaughter. For some time Garden has been em- ployed as a “‘trusty” at the executive man- sion, domg shores and running errands. The dog, a fine-looking specimen of the shepberd breed, is a ramily pet, and is un- usually inteliigent. It was part of Garden’s duty to look after the animal, and they came to be fast friends. When the prison doors were opened in the morning the collie was there to meet his convict friend and accompany him to the mansion. At night he returned with his striped playmate to the grim portals. ‘When the pardon was made out it was suggested that the dog be permitted to carry the welcome of freedom to his devoted friend. The paper was inclosed in a stout envelope and given to the ani- mal, which was told to go to the peniten- tiary. With a wag of its tail it left the mansion and ran down the old accus- tomed route to the prison. A telephone message apprised the guards of his coming, and he was admitted without delay. . Garden was in the yard patiently await- ing the arrival of the Governor's message rever dreaming that the dog had been se- lected. Catching sight of the well-known face the dog ran up to the convictand laid the envelope at his feet: The glad cry of happy surprise that the overjoyed pris- oner gave vent to on zatching up the offi- cial envelope and tearing it open was re-echoed by a succession of joyous barks from the four-footed harbinger of good tidings.—Cincinnati Enquirer. l<zm Los Angeles o \ N S \S N E-(Led @ ('ouoy GFisr Explanation.
