His Right to the Unrestricted Rua cf | the Fold the Subjct of Warm Debate. H Joseph I. Dimond is not aschoicesa morsel to many of the Populists as he is to the Buckley wing of the Democn(ic‘ party. This was demonstrated last night at the meeting of the County Committee of the People’s party of San Francisco, when Joseph Asbury Johnson introduced | a resolution indersing Buckley’s candi- | date for Mayor and adopting him into the | Populist party. The first business of importance was the consideration of the report made by B. G. | Haskell of the committee on board of election. He reported tbat while the | Populists were entitled to have two repre- | sentatives in the booth of each precinct, | or about 700 election officers in all, but 500 | names of Populists had thus far been filed with the Election Commission. i He moved that his committee be em- | covering men who would be willing to | serve as guardians of tne Populists’ inter- ests on election day for $10. Several of the members reported a difficulty in find- ing Populists in every precinct, and it was | suggested, and the suggestion was favor- | ably received, that silver Democrats and | er Republicans who could be trusted, | if thers were zmy such to be found, be recommended for these appointments. | Haskell further reported that five | attorneys hed been engaged to prepare | papers and procure the arrest of all per- | sons who attempted to defraud the Popu- | lists on election day. He informed the | committee that two Police Judges had | agreed to be on hand so that the warrants | of arrest could be issued atonce. | Then Joseph Asbury Johnson cast the apple of discord inte the meetine. Hein- | troduced a series of three resolutionms. | The first read, in part, as follows: ize in Joseph I Dimond, the | te of the People’s party of San Francisco for the office of Mayor, a gen- uine, boid snd uncompromising anti- monopolist and Bryan Democrat and | avowed Populist of udimpeachable integ- | t. vector, Isase M.

Thesmile of the satyr is so self-satisfied and the expres- sion of the cupidis so anxious that the effect is droll. Dobbertin says he never molds anything from the plastic ciay unless there exjsts bebind his fingers a well-defined féeling or thought that needs external fixing. Itis perhaps this that makes the sketch of the atyrand the cupid particularly interest- ing and renders it a delicate piece of good- natured satire. In fact, there is a story connec:ed to it. When Fred Yates, the Knglish artist, was in the City a short time ago he visited Dobbertin's studio. He looked at the “Degeneration’ and was delighted. He fixed his monocle to his right eye and gazed on the *Kiss of Death.” “Dobbertin,” said he, holding his head back and smiling while be laid his hand patronizingly on the shoulder of the sculp- tor—*‘Dobbertin, my boy, it is true you are an artist.” The words were sincere enough, but the tone and the attitude were of the natare that makes the full-grown man feel like a little boy when he listens to them. The he said afterward. It tickled him so much that he began to imagine the real feeling in the mind bf the great painter. The thought became very sirong in his mind, so strong really that as soon as Yates had deparied, Dob- bertin rushed to a lump of wet clay and began- with facile touches to show his fellow aruists how he felt. ‘When a brother artist came in scon after, he looked at the sketch & moment d said: ‘A satyr’s nose is not bentthat way, Dobbertin,” and then after lwhnfi atit lonzer, said: “Ob, that's Yates, and 50 Dobbertin has perpetrated a pun in marble. He has good-naturedly satirized thefeeiing of infallibility in an English artist. BAIL FOR WILLIAMS, evening. Miss Adler will be assisted by Ce- celia A. Keesing, dramatic soprano; bensld de V.

Jackson resides at 33 Hinckley alley. Hellves in the rear and has access to his room through & narrow igeway. Per- sons had been placing kindling wood inthe passageway, greatly to the annoyance of the old man. Last evening he saturated the kindling with kerosene and set fire to it. Nel- lie Leonard, who lives next door, saw the act attempted. She hurrfed and extinguished the flames and called the officers, who made the arrest. e QUEEN MAKES FEW MISTAKES Why Her Opinion Is Respected by All of Her Subjects. Just think of the blunders all living monarchs. have made, even Francis Jo- seph of Austria, whom men now account a nestor, and all the premiers of our time, and then reflect on this reign, in which there has never been a blunder great enough to be perceptible to the million eyes which always watch a court, says the Spectator. It seems to us that wholly apart from the difficult question of the proper limits of loyalty to an individual, there is enouch in the known facts to jus- tify ail the reverence with which the Queen 1s regarded and which extends far | 8% beyond the limit of her scepter, wide as th;_limii; has now become. oreigners occupy in many respects the position of posterity, and among foreign- ers capahble of judging the reverence for the Queen is at'least as great asin Eng- land, her oglnlon when known to foreign eonm'alg.ing at least as hufilguit does with her own Ministers. This is due, say.several of our contem to the intermarriages which have made her Ma- jesty the common ancestress in so many courts, in every court, indeed, not strictl; cath no doubt the lmnpol tion of the Queen in that respect is one reason for the special honor in which she is held abroaa, but it is not the principal THE BIG FAIR 1S NOW CLOSED A Brilliant Victory Won for the Cause.of Home Industry. Over Two ilnndred Thousand People Attended During the Month. AN OBJECT LESSON TAUGHT. Closing Scenes Full of Life and in Keeping With the Entire Exposition. The Home Industry Exposition at the Mechanics’ Pavilion closed last evening in a blaze of glory and a din tbat sounded like Bedlam turned loose. Never i the history of the City has there been a fair of this kind so successful or productive of such good results. The intention of the Mechanics’ Insti- tute and the Manufacturers’ and Pro- ducers’ Association was to present the fact to the public that the manufacturers of California can produce as good, if not better, than any in the world. The lesson has been received and has been appre- ciated. The conclusion of the exposition was in keeping with the occasion. The Pavilion was thronged from 8 to 11 o'clock with visitors and when the orchestra finished “*Home, Sweet Home" the engineer in the boilerroom pulled the cord of a large steam whistle, which made such a noise that even thinking had to be suspended for the time. Nearly all the booths were specially decorated in gay colors, which made a beautiful and striking scene, and large numbers of visitors were presented with bright-hued ribbon badges by the ex- hibitors. There was less dissatisfaction among those interested in the fair than in former years. Alter the crowd began toleave the build- ing a number of exhibitors gave a banquet in honor of the management. This be- came a reunion, for the management gave a banquet to the members of the band. Speeches were made by Leader Hinrichs, Alfred Roncovieri, Joseph Cumming, R. P. Doolan, E. A. Denicke and several others. Before departing the band sere- naded the airectors. As stated the affair was a success, and some idea of the nature of the success may be obtained when it is learmed that during the month of the exposition over 200,000 persons entered the Pavilion. Of these 90,000 were paid single ad mis- sions and over 60,000 were children from the public and parochial schools. The others were holders of season tickets, ex- hibitors, ete. Although the price of a single admission was reduced to 25 cents and the expense was enormous, several thousand dollars was cleared by the man- agement. be largest profit,to the community and to the manufacturers, cannot be esti- mated at once. About 14,000 persons signed the manufacturers’ and producers’ pledge to patronize home manufacturers whenever possible, and the display of such a variety of tirst-class home-made articles and goods proved an object-lesson the public will not soon forget. PR Modern Boat Building. An exhibit at the Mechanics’ Fair that is particularly worthy of special comment by reason of the superiority of workman- ship is the display made in boat building by George Kneass. The gasoline launch on exhibition is indeed a masterpiece; while the rowboats are models of perfec- tion. Mr. Kneass has been building boats since 1876 and he has produced the finest of all classes and sizes on our bay. His office and works of the establishment is at 718 Third street.
