CHIER RILEY ENIkR SCANRELL Scene in B’nai E'rith Hall Last Night at the Grand Ball of the Ex-Firemen of San Francisco. [Sketched by a “Call” artist.] NO BELL ALARMED THEM! Ex-Firemen’s Association Gives a Grand Inaugural Ball. B'nai B'rith Hall the Sceme of Ele- gant Hospitality—Tasteful Deco- rations. The ex-members of the paid fire depart- ment gave their inauguration ball at B’nai B’rith Hall last night under the most promising auspices. o Seldom, if ever, has this ball been more elaborately or handsomely decorated than it was last night. Every inch of the front tooned with streamers of red, white and blue artistically interwoven in graceful loops and folds, giving a most pleasing ef- fect to the tasteful frescoing which has been recently added to the ceiling. The center chandelier was encircled with similar colors to those on the gal- form, where the musicians were stationed, was marvelous in itself. Old Glory adorned each side with its silken texture, while just above the vision line of the poles which | supported it in place and a little in the | background were two life-size oil paintings of the firemen’s idols, David Scannell and Jim Riley, both of whom have answered to the trumpet call on the golden shores. This display, with an unlimited flood of electric lights, made one of the very pret- tiest hall scenes to behold. Added to all this, the moying figures of lovely women, attired in bright ball-dresses, with snow- white arms, and the manly male figures of those who in their day battled with the all-destructive element which spares neither the property of the rich orthe poor when are once started, added still more attraction to the entire scene. Socially and financially the maiden ball of the ex-Firemen's ssociation was a decided success, The officers and members of this infant society, to whom credit must be given for its success, are: President, James Ward; vice-president, George Smith; second vice-president, Law- rence Dunn Sr.; recording sceretary, V. de Martini; finane H responding s urer, W. Casey; attorney, A. A Executive committee—W. P. Donnelly, P. Sullivan, W. Tannian, Kendricks, F. Dugan, W. H. Brown, J. ) Cauley, J. Linegal stigating committee— R. E. Connors, J. Finn, George Bridgewood, L. Holz and J. Buchanan. The arrangement committee, to whom full power had been delegated, were: W. C\ y, V. de Martini, W. Hopkins and J. Ward. . A. Friedlander. Casey (chairman), The arranzement of the floor wasen-| trusted to M. Lowenfeldt, who left noth- ing undone to make it pleasant for those who participated in the dances. His ais- sistant, W. Brown, was as effi- cient as the principal. These with the floor commitiee—J. Tiedman, A. A. Fried- lander, C. Kennedy and L. DunnJr.— left nothing undone in their line. The recepticn committee, with James Buchanan as its chairman, assisted by L. Fentsmacher, J. Egan, T.. Dunn Sr.,, W. Cronin, J. McOarthy, P. W. Sullivan, J. Finn, G. Bridgewood, Jeff Martinet, and W. Winthrop, saw to it the guests were properly eecorted to the parlors set apart for their reception. The appearance of Grandpa Sol over the summit of Mount Diablo notified the par- ticipante that it was Sunday morning and time to seek their respective homes, which they did, evidently well pleased with their attendance at the ex-firemen’s first ball. USED A PAPER-CUTTER. Curious Turn in the Case of Frank Mec- Neil, Charged With Assault to Murder. The case of Frank McNeil, painter, charged with assault to murder upon Frank Rankin in the saloon of Mrs. 0'Grady, Natoma and Mary streets, has not yet been decided by Judge Campbeli. The Judge had continued the case till yes- terday, so as to decide whether to hold McNell for assaalt to murder or assault with a deadly weapon. He decided to hold McNeil on the former charge in $10,000 bonds. Neither Attorney Long, for the prosecu- tion, nor Attorney Gallagher, for the de- fendant, was present, and when the latter heard of the Judge’s decision he hurried to the court and demanded that the case be reopened. Mrs. O’Grady, he said, had been sum- moned as a witness for the prosecution, but she had not been put on the witness- stand because her testimony was favorable to the defendant. Besides, he wished to put the defendant on the stand. ] The request was granted and McNeil gave his testimony. He said he wasin bed when Rankin, Mrs. O’Grady and her daughter Minnme came upstairs. He heard them quarreling and Rankin threat- ening violence to Mrs. 0’Grady. Then he heard Rankin choking Mrs. O'Grady and he jumped out of bed and ran to her assistance. Rankin attacked him with a hatchet and in defending himself he cut Rankin on the face with a paper-cutter. He denied using a razor. Attorney Long not being present to cross-examine McNeil, and as it was con- sidered necessary to have the evidence of | Mrs. O'Grady, the case was continned till t0-mOrrow. ] THE POLYTECHNIC WINS THE DAY But the Lowell High School Showed Good Athletes, EMBRYO COLLEGE YELLS Augur Well for the Future Stanfordites and Berkeleyites. LONG-HAIRED MAU THE LION. Comes Off Track and Field With His Sweater Covered With Silver Medals. The Olympic Athletic Club grounds were running over yesterday with the embryo collegiate. The event was the intercollegiate field day between the Polytechnic High School and the Lowell High School. The first-named school carried off the honors of the day. The final summing up of points gave 75 to 56 in favor of the Poly- technic. The’rah, 'rah, 'rahs were perhaps a little premature in relation to the attitude of studies, but they were given nevertheless with a strength of lung and a distinctness of enunciation that was heard clear down to the Panhandle. Fair and enthusiastic co-eds in the grand stand waved their miniature parasols and shouted with shrill feminine sweetness for their favorites, while juvenile athletes with football bangs balf-developed did their utmost on the field and track to win glory and co-ed ad- miration. They all did well and it was a good imitation of the more serious colle- giate field day. Perhaps the one most shouted over was Mau of the Polytechnic; he took part in almost every event and came out at the end fresh as he entered, with the front of his sweater glittering with newly won medals. The bicycle events were all two-mile heats and were run in good style. The best time was made by Russ of the Lowell High School, his time being 5:45. ab.r of the Lowell whirled around and threw the hammer 80 feet 2 inches. This was not beaten, althongh O'Connor of the same school came within two feet of Taber’s mark. Mau of the Polytechnic gave his long hair a vicious pull, screwed up his face and jumped, with the help of a vaulting pole, 9 feet high. This could not be ‘beaten. Mau was also the victor in the broad jump, flying through the air 19 feet 14 inches, and the way he straddled the hurdles in | the 220-yard dash made more than one little co-ed heart flutter. In the grand stand a solitary bugle blew changes on the cslls of victory and charge. Thisie]on ed to the P. H. 8. A shrill fife of the L. H. 8. a few rows below whistled ‘A Girl I Left Behind Me'’ deiiance when- ever the Lowell boys panted in winners. The principal thing heard out among the athletes was: ‘‘Here, Franklin, come here and slap my legs, will you? My muscles are getting stiff’’; .or, *‘Say, give me a gargle; my throat's thick.”” Above all these sounds, though, resounded the report of the starter’'s pistol. Wheneverit went off every co-ed on the stand would duck her head and apply her fingers to her ears. 2 The track captains were N. F. Titus, L. H. 8., and F! Hammer, P. H. 8. The re- mainder of the officers were as follows: Referee—Phil Wand, 0. A. C. Judges: at finish—Frank Triest, P. H. 8., president Poly- techuic Alumni; P. T. Tompkins, L. H.8.; C. 8. Pope, L. 8. J. U.

The County Committee Increase—Head~ quarters for the State Executive Body to Be Secured. In Republican circles little has occurred to excite the interest of party workers since the County Committee resolved to double its membership. Since the regular meeting last Thursday evening Chairman Manwaring nas received no end of letters and personal suggestions coucerning the merits of men who are willing to serve on the committee. He says that he will give all the recommendations fair considera- tion-and not announce the new appoint- ments in haste. At the Union League Club quiet reigns. Chairmar Frank McLaughlin has gone to his seaside cottage at Santa Cruz and will probably remain there until the carnival is over. He is on a committee with Harry Gray, M. R. Higgins and Cornelius 0’Con- nor to select campaign headguarters. The selection of rooms will probably be made within the next four or five days. Next Tuesday a private wire will be run into the main room of the Union League Club, so members can get a summary of events at the St. Louis convention.
