The last sad rites were held over the body of ex-Captain Short in Pioneers’ Hall yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock. All day the body lay in state in the hall and hundreds of sorrowing friends came to take a last look at the face of one who was loved by all who knew him. The casket was nearly covered with floral tributes. A huge armchair of flowers, the gift of Company B, which Captain Short had commanded, stood at the head of the bier. It was composed of pink, yellow and white rosebuds, white carnations and maidenhair fern. In the center of the back was a star of yellow im- mortelles with the words, 'Captain Sbort,” in purple in the center. Bunches of St. Joseph lilies, a sheaf of wheatand a pillow were placed near by. At the foot of the casket and draped with mourning stood the handsome testi- monial which the members of Company B had presented to Captain Short when he retired on August 1, 1895 It is a spiendidly illuminated copy of resolutions or admiration, respect and gratitude for faithful service, which were passed by the company at that time. It bears his pic- ture at the head and the words, "‘a tribute to conscientious services” on the Lanner at the foot, whiie his name is on the cen- ter in large illuminated capitals.

WANT HORE School Directors Present Their Claims to the Super- visors, Sportsmen Ask That a New Fish and Game Warden Be Appointed at Omnoe. The Finance Committee of the Board of Education, backed up by several delega- tions of property-owners, argued long and earnestly with the Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors yesterday re- garding the Echool Department appropri- ation for the coming year. The 8chool Directors asked for $2,02: 158 07 for the year, of which about half million was for new school buildings. This was the matter that interested the citizens, and each delegation presented urgent reasons why its district should have new schoo! facilities. J. B. Hill spoke for the Bunnyside Improvement Club, A.Sbarboro for the Presidio Heights_Improvement Club, Dr. Torello for the Five-mile Improvement Ciub and Mr. Hubbs for the Richmond District. Each presented figures to show that his section contained far more ckildren than could be accommodated by the schools now operated, and begged the board to consider the claims of tie children, to whom proper education might be a boon in life. in fixing the appropriation. Chairman Waller of the committee also addressed the Supervisors, explaining the figures in the demand, urging that the matier be carefully considered before a deci¢ion was arrived at. The matter was taken under advisement. The question of appointing a Fish and Garae Warden was also di<cussed, John F. Lemmon and Merton C. Allen addressing the committee on the subject. They stated tbata large amount of game that is now illegally brought into this City could be stopped If a Game Warden who would watch the ferries was ap- pointed. The committee decided to recommend thet the warden be appointed. FIVE MORE D{VOROES. Marital Infelicitles Occupy the Atten- - tion of the Courts.

Two dollars for the round trip. A through train, with four hours of enjoyment l in Ukiah snd viginity, of the preparations of the convention, met Thursday evening at its-headquarters m the Y. M. C. A. building. There were pressnt Messrs. Watt, Webster, Perkins, Rigdon, Keily, Campbell, Wiles, Rader, Morritt, Johnson, McKenzie and Little- field. The reports of the committees re presented. Special committees re- ported as follows: The commitiee on emergency hospital, consisting of Drs. Rigdon and Kelly, re- ported that the emergency hospitals in the two pavilions were t o be fitted up and equipped by the Children’s Hospital and by the Lane Hospital. The Childrens’ Hospital is to havecharge in Mechani cs’ Pavilion and the Lane Hospital in Weod- ward's Pavilion. Dr. B. F. Clark is to be superintendent of the hospitals, under the direction o f Drs. Rigdon and Kelly. The committee recommended that a vote of thanks be tendered the Waldeck Hos- pitel for its kind offers in the matter, which vote of thanks was so tendered. Thedecoration committee recommended providing 1500 badges for the concert chorus and 1500 badges for the convention chorus, the two lots being of different colors. The recommendation wasadopted. The following statement to the general public has been issued by the decoration committee: A very satisfactory arrangement has been agreed upon by the decoration committees for the Fourth of July celebration ana the Chris- tian Endeavor convention. The former will expend its money for National colors only, contracting with the decorators that the flags and bunting shall remain in place until July 13, covering the conventlon period. On the other band, the Christian Endeayor commit- tee will neve the welcome arch compleied by the evening of July 3, and will Intersperse, at its own expense, the Christian Endeavor col- ors in the street decorations. This is precizely as it should be. Certainly we are sli agreed that our fair City shall pre- sent a beautiful appearance when the thou- sands of strapgers shall visit us in July, so that when they return 1o their homes they will carry with them such impressions of San Franclsco as will lead them to speak in the highest terms of this City by the Golden Gate. The ushers committee reported progress and will hold meetngs on Saturday even- ing, June 26, and on Mionday eveming, June 28, in the Y. M. C. A. buiiding. Tke music committee was not repre- sented at the meeting, all its members be- ing present at the rehearsal, which was held in the First Baptist Church. The church was crowded and a good r rsal was had. The reception, enteriainment and finance committees reported progress along their various lines. Upon motion $50, which had been previously sub- scribed toward decorations of the Cali- (on{\ixl State headquarters, was ordered aid. FWhUe the finance committee does not doubt that the entire amount of $25,000 will be collected in time to meet all biils, yet the money is coming in more slowly then the committes would like. Thisisa matter in which not the Christian En- deavorers alone but all of San Francisco is interested. The Endeavorers who will come here will be in a measure the gues ot San Francisco, and it is due to the honor of the City and BState that the money to provide for them should be forthcoming immediately. The total amcunt asked is insignificant in compari- son to whatother bodies demand. The volitical conventions ask for thousands of dollars where the Christian Endeavorers k for hundreds, and the small sum of $25,000 which th re soliciting oupht to e paid with little or no delay on the part of the citizens. The Christian Endeavor convention chorus will give a grand concert on Tues- day evening, July 6, in Mechanics’ Pa- vilion. The chorus has been rehearsing * | for this concert for several months past | of the ship Topgeliant whi N FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 26 and has accomplished a great deal in the way of traiming.

This g piication was made on hehalf of Thomas Frederick Bell, son of the decedent, who de- clares that he is entitied to a share of the family allowance and who thinks that the money which is due him ought to ba issued to him directly, instead of having it pas through the hands of others.

Millle Flynn Loses Her Husband, Frank Wratten, by Diyorce. Mrs. Millle Flyno-Wratten was divorced from Frank M.

On this showi Judge Senwell grented ber the wished-for de- cree, aud said that she might resume her maiden name if she felt so disposed, but no court has yet dared to settle the question whether in such a case she ought to be called Miss Milite Fiynn or Mrs. Mtilie Flynn.

M. L., gave | avery enjoyable entertainment last cven: ing in Metropolitan Temple. Long before hall was thronged with people, and when the entertainment began the ushers were | obliged to force away the people who crowded the stairs and hellways. The entertainment opened with an or- gan prelude by Professor Robert Harri- | son, ana then William F. Humphrey, president of Cathedral Council, madea | few introductory remarks, showing what | a flourishing condition the order is in. The feature of the evening was an ad. | ! dress by Rev. C. A. Ramm on “Why Am I | a Catholic " Father Ramm, who is a very interest- |ing spesker, introduced his subject by giving a sbort history of his early life, only touching broadly on the influences which combined to cause him to change from the Episcopal to the Catholic church. ‘The speaker told how in his early days his religious education had been neglected by his parents, who ware Lutherans, un- |/ | til. when he was 13 years of age, a travel- ing Lutheran minister had baptiz:d him. | He knew nothing of the meaning of the | ment of baptism, and the only re- | sult was that he was made the butt of the jokes of the other boys on account of it. | | Later on he was sent to school across the | bay, where attendunce at some church | was compulsory. He drifted around from ane church to snother without finding | what Lie was in search of—a creed with a | substantial backing. ! Finally he drifted into an Episcopalian church, not because he thought it better | than any of the others, but more because he was intimate with the pastor and most | of his friends went (nere. Although he | never joined the church he took com- | munion there regularly. “ Father Ramm then told how he had ! | searched earnestly to find by what au- | thority ihe various preachers taught, since the r teaching was so contradictory, each one apparently belieying and disbe- lieving what he saw fit. He could not be- | lieve that his choosing & doctrine would make that doctrine true, and be was look- ing for a revelation of Christ’s religion. | His search was not only 1o find the true | religion, but to find some competent au- | thority to teach it to him, as, if the trath were in the Bible, he couldn’t find it. INow, there was oniy one church whicn | ever claimed infallibie autbonty in these | teachings, and to that church he went. There, h , he was taught not creeds, | bu. the tru- refigion as ic has been b d down from thie men whom Christ sent out | to preach uis teachings to ali the world. | He ciosed his address by teliing how | proud he was to be a member of a church which looks the whole world in the tace and is her own greatest witness—a verit- able city set on a hill which cannot be | nid, as she is evervwhere; too great o be explained away by sophistries. A Chiscse Womin Deported.
