30 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1896. BRYANISTIC MEN - TODIVIDETHE PIE California Democrats Want to Shut Out Their Allies. Big Offices Are Demanded for Figuring Out a Paper Majority. HOW A RUMPUS WAS AVERTED. Gavin McNab's “High Water Panis” Win Him the Portfolio of Agri- culture Against R. P. Troy. There is danger of & mutiny in the Democratic ranks of California. This was caused by ths publication of a telegram from Chicago on the day that Mr. Bryan visited that city, pretending to present the formation of Bryan's Cabinet in the event of his election. The greatest consternation was caused by the announcements made in that dis- patch, for it was there stated that Gov- ernor Altgeld of Iilinois had been decided on for Attorney-General, and that other places had been parceled out to some of “those Eastern fellows,” like Benjamin R. Tillman, Eugene V. Debs, J. 8. Coxey and David Bennett Hill, the only repre- sentatives of the wide and woolly West being Henry M. Teller, ex-Governor ‘Waite of Colorado and Senator Stewart of Nevada. Now the leading Bryanistic Democrats of California have been doing a great deal of figuring, and by their own fictitious statistics have convinced themselves that they have a chance to carry California for their favorite candidate. Having per- formed this herculean mathematical op- eration, they bave taken great credit to themselves, for they argue that if Cali- fornia goes for Bryan and Bryan should by chance win, they will be entitled to all the credit and all the offices, especially all the Cabinet offices. Why not? Do they not belong to the party that preaches the doctrine that to the victors belone the spoils ? Have they not won California (on paper) for Bryan? Certainly. Then forward the Bread and Butter Bri- gade! On to the Pie Counter! Snch was the decision that was reached | .. 8t an executive session of the Democratic nabobs that is reperted to have been held at the California Hotel. Rumor has it that George W. Baker of the Bimetallic League, W. P. Lawlor of the Bilver Cam- aign Committee, E. M. Wardall of the opulist party and Charles D. Lane, the ‘‘angel” of all the Bryan forces, attempted to break into the meeting, hoping to cb- tain ‘“‘recognition’’ for a small piece of pie, but they were curtly dismissed, so it is said, with the intimation that they were welcome as allies. but were not expected to share in the fruits of victory—not even in a vistory that exists only on paper. Then the solemn conclave began its ponderous deliberations. It was primarily decided that if Mr. Brysn should not at once signify his ac- ceptance of this programme he might | know what to expect when the votes of California are counted after next Tuesday. W. H. Alford, the boy manager of the boy orator’s campaign in California, was the first to speak. He said that modesty would preyvent him from naming the posi- tion to which he thought he was entitled. He supposed they would remember the fact that he is chairman of the Democratic Campaign Committee and he would leave it for some kind friend to suggest what ought to be his reward for figuring outa Bryan majority in California. y unanimous vote it was decided that Mr. Alford ought to be Secretary of State, it being conceded that a boy orator should have a boy ‘‘premier,” a title which will be adopted under the rule of Altgeldism. After that a squabble ensued between Gavin McNab and R. P. Troy, the efficient secretary of the campaign "commitiee, as 10 which should be the Secretary of Agri- cuiture. The friends of Mr. McNab in- sisted that he looked like a Populist farm- er, and asked him to stand up and let the committee get a good view of his *‘nigh. water pants.” This argument was a o clincher and Mr. McNab was given the place. Frank Gould came all the way from Stockton to demand his share, and with his usual luck he walked off with the naval portfolio, urging as a reason that he had served an apprenticeship to an able seaman on the raging billows of Mormon Channel. J. J. Dwyer was given the Attorney- Generalship becausein a recent *speech he let it be known that he “would be able to | tell the diiference between a Pullman car and a mail coach.” Max Popper was granted permission to accept the position of Secretary of the Treasury, and S:m Braunhart is booked to be Secretary of War. Reel B. Terry said he would *kick” if | they slated him for nothing better than Postmaster-General, but he was finally pacified by the assurance that his posi- uion as boss of the letter-carriers would net interfere with his law practice. M. F. Tarpey had parceled out to him the Secretaryship of the Interior, and the meeting adjourned after sending word to John P. Irish, "John Daggett and other Cleveland Democrats that they must pre- pare to make room for pro-silver Demo- crats after the 4th of next March, or as soon thereafter as the civil service law can be repealed. ; A congratulatory teiegram was ordered forwarded to Mr. Bryan, telling him that they hoped he would justify what they had said about him being a Washington and Lincoln combined, and tue greatest man who had ever occupied the rresiden- tial chair. ALL SOULS’ DAY. Calvarian Society Commemoration to Be Held at the Cathedral. This afternoon at 3 o’clock serye ices commemorating All Souls’ day will be held at St. Mary’s Cathedral. The feast of all souls is an oid ore in the Catholic church. It was first observed abont the year 1048 in France by the Ab- bot Odilon, who ordered that in all his monasteries prayers should be recited every year on November 2 far the relief of the souls in purgatory. About the same time Pope John XVI ordained that the day should be observed throughout the whole church. In some countries more than in others the practive of offering prayer for the dead during the entire month of Novem- ber prevails, November being called the month of the dead. Thne origin of the month of the dead may be traced back to a very ancient veriod, long before the Christian era. Under a different form it constituted one of the most general and usual forms of prayer for the deceased among the Jewish people. Indeed devo- tion toward the dead appears to be one of their most remarkable rites, In Beriptural teaching the church finds exhortation “t pray ior the dead that they may be loosed from sins.” In ac- cordance then with its mission upon earth of helping mankind, the church extends its charity even beyond this liie and prays for the departed, for all souls, X This annual meeting at the cathedral is attended not only by members of the Calvarian Society, but by Cathoiic_people generally, The Very Reverend J. J. Pren- dergast will deliver a sermon. An excep- tional choir, under the leadership of Pro- fessor Harrison, will render music proper to the solemn occasion. OBJECiS OF CHARITY. Contributions Can Be Left With the Ex- pressman a: Clay and Montgomery. The sad and sudden death of William Kennedy, who lost his life by a crowbar which fell. and struck him on the head while digging a well in the Mission a few days ago, has left his widow ana three children destitute. In their misiortune the desolate family bas taken temporary quarters with Mrs. Kennedy’s brother at 310 Bemis street. This brother is old, sickly and poor, having a family of seven children and a wife tosupport. Consequently he cannot afford the widow and orphans a3 home. The three little girls of the deceased, Mary, Cecelia and Lizzie, aged 11, 8 and 4 years respectively, have been attending St. Anthony’s School, but were necessarily withdrawn for the present. The two fawi- lies are living together in a little house perched away upon the hillside, with very little in the wardrobes and very little on the pantry shelves. Twelve persons to be fed and clothed, all dependent upon the exertions of one sick man. If any chari- tably inclined persons in this City wish to send money, food or clothing to the hungry little ones they can do so by leav- ing the same with J. W. Sullivan, an ex- pressman who has a stand at the south- west corner ot Clay and Montgomery streets, who will convey the same to the family. This is a case of actual want, and those who may wish to aid a worthy widow and her three little girl orphans can now do so. SOME FOOTBALL DON'TS: Walter Camp Defines a Great Player and What He Should Not Do. An Instructive List of Hints for Use on the Grid- iron. | Walter Camp of Yale, *‘the father of football,” and L. F. Delard, the great Har- vard footpall strategist, have published a list of some of the most important foot- | ball ‘““don’ts.”” The list is instructive in | outlining what constitutes a really great | player, while at the same time it estab- lishes a standard by which men in a con- test may be measured irrespective of their g g o o R R occasional star performances. The list follows: Don’t fail to play a fast game. Line up in- stantly after each down. Your game is twice | as effective if there are no delays. | Don’t slug. Scrapping is not football. More | than this, it prevents good playing. Don’t wait for the opposing runner in the line. Break through and stop him before he | reaches the line. Don’t tackle above the waistor below the | knees, but always at the hips. When about to | tackle keep your eyeson the runner’s hips and he cannot 80 readily deceive you in his move- ments, Don’t let any player whom you tackle gain an inch afterward. Never let him gain nis length by falling forwerd. Lift him off his feet and throw him back toward his goal. Don’t fail to try to take the ball away from an opponent when he is tackled. Make a fea- ture of this ana you will succeed oftener than you anticipate. Don’tlet any thought take precedence of the ball itself. " Keep your mind on the ball. Follow its every motion to drop on it after any fumble or misplay. Don’t be satisfied with a superfigial knowl- edge of the rules. Master every detail. Don’t let your opponent know when or where you are hurt. Don’t make excuses, however good they may be. There is no room in football for excuses. Don’t ans wer back to a coach upon the field, even if you know him to be wrong. Do ex- actly what he tells you to do, so far as you are able, and remember that sirict obedience is the first requirement of a plaver. Don’t lose your temper. The man who can- not control his temper has no business on the football field. Don’t be one minute late to practice. The hour named is the hour for you to be on hand. 1f you have not interest enough to be prompt, resign from the game atonce, for you have not the proper spirit for victory. Don’t let half the players of your team be in their positions on any lineup before you have taken yours. Don’t forget the vital principle ot team piay, which cannot be too citen impressed upon the mind. Itisthis: Team play begins -the in- stant the center receives the ball from the hands of the runner. In other words, it is a part of team play, and the most important part, 1o line up more quickly than your oppo- nents. Thisis the very truest sori of team lay, vet the delay of one single man in tak- ng his place will Tuin it completely. on’t be an automaton. Thoroughly master each principle and then vary your play as emergencies arise. Don’t let any man be ahead of you in drop- ving on the ball when it is fumbled. Don’t fail to try to be in every interference before it is finally stopped. Foliow each run- ner, and watch for a chance to push him or receive the ball from him when he is tackled. Don’t play high if you are checking an inter- ference or running as a partof the interler- ference. When you drop out of an interfer- ence meet your opponent as low as possiole. l‘Dl':n't fail to godown the field under every ick. Don’t forget the rule that your own runner must never be alone when he is tackled. Don’t shirk any required study or work for football. Earn the right to play football or don’t attempt it. Don’t be discouraged with your abilities or prowess. The right spirit in football is worth more than anything. Be sure you bave that and your chances of success arc good, Don’t whine about decisions which seem un- fair. Accept only honest, fearless officials; and then leaye the game in their hands. Dov’t do anything to undermine discipline, or you are putting the ax at the very root ol the tree. Don’t be careless about guards, protector: or padding over eny weak, injured or expose part of the body. One negligence may cost %%%*%%%%%&%%%*%%*%%%%}%*%*%%%*%%%*** BB ‘HALE BROS. >y I thefrrieslrsheslrhesiaeiesirprsfrsprsireecdente Ivote for the house where my gold or silver goes far- thast.

She Houses Her Chicks in an 0ld Republican Campaign Banner. PROTECTION IN THE FABRIC. It Is a Remarkably Living Picture, a Parable, an Allegory of Truth. Out near Harbor View abides an old fnen named Mary. It hasbeen years since Mary was a Jarge white eg: nestling with a number of her spheroidal brothers and sisters in a soapbox at Petaluma. No in- cubator other than Mary’s natural an- cestress warmed her into feathers. No smoky coal-oil lamp was Mary’s foster- mother. She is of the Brahma breed, with a high- caste crest, with feathers on her heels like a Mercury, and her line can be traced back through the poultry generations to you the season’s playing. the morning when the first of her race flew cackling out of the ark. Mary grew rapidly from downy chickhood to the ‘“spring’’ market age, and only escaped becoming a tamale by reason of fine ap- pearance, consequently she was saved to scratch and cluck through successive pe- riods of maternity. Gifted with rare intellect as well as do- mestic industry, she wasted no hatching season in a vain attempt to achieve poster- ity from a white doorknob or a porcelain egg. She knew her lay, and every cheeper she led out to bugs and worms was of her very own to the ultimate feather. L But it was reserved for the piping time of politics for Mary to thrust herself into prcminence. The opportunity hap- pened along her way and she arose 10 it— literally flew up to meet it. Last Mon- day the rain caught her out with her brood in a large vacant lot chasing the nimble but edible grasshopper for the family dinner. She hurried the chicks in out of the wet and found a dry refuge in an_old barn. b In one corner of the building among the rubbish of ages was the remnants of a campaign banner which had been worn by wind and weather and had been laid away, its work well done. Whether she saw among the soft folds of the dusty and dry fabric a place for a warm nest,or, from the appearance of the magic word, “protection,’”’ she concluded that the location was a safe home for an infant industry, no man may say. Possi- bly the latter ides moved her to settle down there, and there may be more in a hen’s philosophy than sheisgiven credit for. Albeit Mary has taken up her abode there and when the day goes out through the Golden Gate and the Presidio Heights heave their shadows far eastward the mother hen and her brood sleep in the mottoed nest. It is a living picture, a parable, an allegory. GERMAN BENEVOLENCE. Quarterly Meeting of the Society Last Evening. The German General Benevolent Society held its quarterly meeting Thursday even- ingat Druids’ Hall. Tne committee reports were not read, having previously been pubiished. President B. Broemmel read his revort, making an excelient showing in every facts and figures: Financial improvement since June 30, $4781 66, notwithstanding the heavy payments for street assess- ments, exceeding $3000. The causes of such highly satisfactory results are good management, and above all a very liberal patronage of our hospital by the general public. The relief committee was able to ex- tend assistance to 255 men, women and 165 families, aggregating $:042 30. The number of members and subscribers on September 30, 1896, were 3325, showi ngan increase of 317 since January 3. The two promenade concerts recently given by the society and the German ies’ General Benevolent Society com- bined will net about $1200, besides umns well its orginal purpose of uniting an bringing together the different German elements of the City. After the transaction of the usual busi- ness of minor importance the following nominating committee for the election of officers and trustees for the January elec- tion was chosen: D. Keil, H. F. Maass, Theodor Dierks, E. C. Priber and Dr. Conrad Weill. For i{:{e' of the election, A. Vorrath, E. the and Hermann Joost were ap- pointed. On motion of Charles Bundsehu it was resolved to turn over to the German La- dies’ General Benevolent Society the fult net proceeiis of the two garden concerts recently in consideration of their needs and the prosperous financial condition of the main eociety. On motion of Richard Finking the thanks of both societies. were voied to all Wwho have contributed toward making the concerts u success, and ‘in particular to the press for its support. respect, as may be seen from the following | LIRS NEW IS0 The Opening Services in St Matthew’s Episcopal Edifice. A Number of Ministers From This City and Oakland Wil Be in Attendance. Episcopal Mission of Lorin, upon which ths carpenters and painters were putting the finishing touches as late as sundown last evening, will see the opening services within its walls this afternoon. It is a pretty little chapel at the corner of Calais street and Alcatraz avenue. The edifice will not be consecrated for tue reasou that it is not fully paid far, but the consecration services, marking the liqui- dation of the debt, will not, it is thought, be long postponed. * The little congregation has been holding ts servicesin a hall at the corner of Her- mann and Calais streets for several years, working steadily, however, and looking forward to the time when it would have its own church. The lot was purchased and now the building 1s completed and the congregation has held its last service in the old hall. This morning holy communion services will be conducted by the missionary, Rev. T. L. Rando!ph, assisted by the lay reader, R. H. Spencer. The opening services will consist of the evening praver and ser- mon, the latter by Rev. Dr. McClure. The churen is beautifully decorated with flowers for the occasion. T: e Bishop will not be present, his en- St. Matthew’s agements preventing. Among the clergy- ‘x‘ue‘n who ‘_ll’“ be in gn:ndtnca and w"‘ho will take part in the service are Rev. J H. Emery, rector of the Church of the Ad- vent, this City; Rev. Dr. David McClure; Rev. Mr. Maynard of St. Jonn’s Church, Oakland, and Rev. H H. Chapman of St, James Church, this City. ———— FOR CHARITY’S SAKE. Musicale and Donation Party in Aid ot the Deaconess’ Home.
