Very truly yours, W. P. SULLIVAN JR., Clerk. In carrying out the scheme relating to the National Guard, much will depend upon the action of the Governor, who commander-in-chief of the military forces of the Siate. The work, however, on the line proposed, 1s not experimental. Good results have been aitained in this direc- tion by the State troops of Massachusetts. The National Guard of this State had two artillery regiments before the reorganizi- tion which ioliowed the Sacremento cam- | gn, but the men were ariillerymen only in name. They were armed and equipped as infantiy and were so little accusiomed to the use of artillery that itis doubtful if a dozen men in the entire command could have fired acannon-shot from Black | Point and hit a target as large as Angel Island ) The First Infantry Regiment of the Na- tional Guard ought to ve instructed in ar- tillery practice. The high-power modern guns and mortars at the Presidio offer am- ple opportunity for the instruction. Tue guardsmen would cheerfully perform the training service required provided the tate would aliow sub-istence and reason- ble daily compensation for the time they were abent from their accustomed places of employment. The Third Artilery, U. 8. A., which has been encamuved on the Presiaio reserv: tion since October 20, breaks camp to-day. The eight batteries wiil return to their re- spective stations—iwo to Angel Island, two to Alcatraz, two to the Presidio bar- racks, one to Fort Mason and one to Lime Point. The eight batteries have worked harmoniously as one command under the P. Miller. The results have been highiy gratifying. Taoe drill was known as work g. The range-finder a-certained the ion of a ship, and calculations were loca tlizht of the sueil. u sed as targets for the the calculation d ouvt so accurately that the craft aimed at was seen through the gisss at the instant of time predicted for the tiring.

Mrs. Tre- vino is a niece of Dr. Ord of Pacific Grove, who came here yesterday to meei her. General Trevino was Secretary of War under Disz during his first term. He is spoken of as “the next President of Mexico.” He has come here particularly to put his son in oue of the preparatory schools to fit him for future en:rance either at Stanford or Berkeley, with the ultimate purpose of having him enter West Point. e LIQUOR TRAFFIC DEBATE. Warm D scussion by the Charter Con- vention on Police Commissioners’ Powers, The Charter Convention of 100 met as in Native Sons’ Hall and considered the report of the commit- 2 Department. Prior to this a communication was read, which Mayor Phelan had cent in, to the effect that Metropolitan Temp e had been rented for a mass-meeting cof the Charter Conven- ;)ion to be held on the evening of Decem- er The law committee brought in a report | favoring the title, “‘Charter Convention Freeholders,” as a’ head for their ticket. The title was adopted. The first two chapters of the report of | the committee on Police Department, in predicted | de for distance, ang.e and time for the | Small vessels passing | | | his son and his niece, and has apart- | son” | | | | | | with minor amendments and rejections, | were generally adopted. The most im- portant sections were those relating to the Poiice Commissioners and their powers. They are, under the provisions, to be four in number, not more than two of the same political faith, and the term of office to be eight years, two going out of office bien- nially. The clause governing this was | referred (o the law committee. The clause of the second chapter, relat- ing to the reta:l liquor traffic, although adopted, came in for a warm discussion, several wishing property-holders to be given certain powers in the location of saloons. E. P. E. Troy gave notice of re- consideration at the next meeting. ———— On Trial for Murder.

HARSHLY ~ ACCUSED. The Knight of the Carpet Ac- credited With Grewsome Sentiments, GREENWAY AT PEACE WITH ALL IS THE LEADER. Kindest Recards to the Debutantes, Humble Respects to the Matrons, Unfortunately, more trnth than fiction jsin that erystallized bit of experience, “too many cooks spoil the broth.”’ Para- phrased at present to meet the urgent demands of society, it is made to read, “Too many dancing classes spoil a sea- and thereby teresting tale. Cynics always—and sometimes even sages—say that that delightful morsel of femininity known in fashionable parlance as the debutante or bud requires but two things to complete her physical well- being, otherwise her happiness, and these two precious things are danciug and pink teas. With a wonderful aforethought—all malice excluded—the prominent city matrons, disciples of the sages, and with an eye on tne cynics, assembled and established numerous dancing classes. As for the teas, they are iudigenous to debutante soil and spring of themselves. Tne parent of all the dancing clusses was the Friday Fortnightly. For the Fortnightly Mesdames Monroe Salisbury, A. Borel, Gordon Blanding, A. A. Baker, Kip and otbers stood sponsor, and con- gratulated themselves on the oft-repeated successes of the class, In humble imitation of the Fortnightly class sprung the Terpsichoreans, the Ci derellas, the Saturday Nights, In addi- tion to tnese many gatherings to trip the light fantastic there was still the stately Monday Nieht Class and Greenway’s Fri- day Night Cotillon. With the dawn of the season of 1897 chaperons began to agitate their cere- brums—ifor all authorities to the con- trary, society cbayerons have cerebrums, These dear old ladies found a mighty problem confronting them, Which and how many dancing classes should their dear buds atiend. Sad as it is to relate, and still more dole- ful to pen,“zmbrosial cash’ cut not a little figure in the selection with many. Tue ~election of others again was influenced by the amount of fun to be extracted from the organization chosen, and for one cause or another the Fortnightly’s list was the largest. The rumors began to fly. Debutantes gathered in little tight knots at their pink-and-yellow teas and proved beyond a doubt their talent for gossiping. Poor old Greenway came in for their bits of repartee and pointed shafts of wit, and according 10 the buls he was niceiy toasted, and not without ciuse. For our knight of the carpet has been accredited of most grewsome senti- ments. One charming bud, the daintiest ot the debutantes, and certainly the wit- tiest, is said to have aroused the leader’s ire for preferring the jolly Fortnightly to the Greenway cotillon. In deep and icy tones the leader is saia to have exclaimed, not without meo- dig her social 1 will mop ihe floor with tre hangs a not unin grave., | Wednesday nigiits and 1 he Friday nights, and—"—Come on! who's next?—or senti- ments to that effect. But with fortitude and a proud little heart beating blithely, the bud whose grave the great leader was to dig went to the Fortnightly’s, and the only thought she gave to our knight was expressed in these words at the close of the german: “My obsequies went off nicely, didn’t they?” When confronted with all these horrible accusations Greenway is calmlv innocent and mildly asionished. “Oh! no,” he says, “there is no truth in any ot that stuff, T'm at peace with all the world; [ have but one enemy in all this great city. My cotillon and the other classes do not clash. T'm especially favorable to the Friday Fortnightlys, a prosperous, charm- ing littie class. I believe the row is be- tween the Terpsichoreans and the Fort- nightlys, Any number of the Fortnight- ivs are coming to my cotillons. I lead the first with Edna Hopkins, and —" with a list in evidence he prov:d that many Fortnightlys are also Friday nights. But where is the trouble?” There is the old saying, which says, ‘*No smoke with- outfire,” ‘and the smoke hovers thickly over the dancing cias<es these days. JENKS COURI-MARTIAL AGAIN. Testimony Favorable to the Accused aund Another Session for Monday. The court-martial of Captain Jenks was resumed last nightatthe California Hotel, but not concluded. Ii will be taken up again Monday night. Three witnesses were examined—Dr. Robert Darling, a veterinary surgeon and a graduate of McGill University, Mon- treal; Dr. E. P. Creely and Major W. D. McCartyy. In effect the testimony of all three was favorable to Jeuks. The two doctors gave it as their opinions that the amount of | hay apportioned the Lorses and the day and over that they bad nothing to eat would not have caused dangerous symptoms, would only temporarily have weakened the horses, but would have in- capacitated them for immediate service upon an emergency call. ‘‘Azatura’’ was defined as a disease of borses due to overeating. In Aprl last one of the troop’s horses had been para- Iyzed by rza‘ura and had to be shot, and at the time Dr. Creely advised Farrier de Vries to give idle horses no bran or grain. i Ldle, restiess horses, he said, often gnaw their mangers; it 1s not an evidence ot bunger. Mujor McCartby testified to Captain Jenks’ previous unquestioned personal and military characte ENLARGED THE SCOPE |Greater Powers for the Com- wmittee of the Park Association, Asked to Figure on Sewers and a New City and County Hospital, The Finance Committee of the Board of Suvervisors decided yesterday to enlarge the powers (f the committee appointed for the City Hall Park Association to formulate a plan of action to acquire possession of the City Hall lots for park purvoses. |~ In response to a request asking that fur- | ther powers be granted 1t was deciced to recommend the passage of the following resolution: Resolved, That this board extend to the com- | mi.tee ot ‘the City Hall Park Association, by his Honor the Mayor, a request Lo present any data or suggesiions as to ihe cost and des:ra- | biiity of the following improvements, 10-wit: | First—The number of new schooihouses, fire and engine houses and police stations, where | they snould be located and the approximate | cos gecond~The appro. {and ¢ Hospital.

The will was executed on the 25th of last month in the vresence of Reuben H. Lioyd and Dr. C. F. Buckley.

J Canvassers Meet With Success | in Getting Money for the | Enterprise. Many Letters of Inquiry—Permanent | Headquarters Established—Inter- views With Bailroad Men. The office of the Alaskan mittee has become a busy piace. The in- | quiries from parties interested in the Klondike have been many. One party writes from New York asking for rates for a party of 100 persons and fifty dogs. An- other in New England wants figures for outfitting fiity men and asks if the trans- portation rates will be the same as they are through other points on the coast. | One party in Indiana savs that there will Le twenty-five from the town of Alport, and that they had made their arrange- ments to go bv way of Seattle, and would be glad to come this way if it costs no | more. The Harbor Commissioners have granted the committee a space in the <outh side of the ferry building for their bureau of information and display. The carpenters are now at work fitting up that portion of the bullding, which will prob- ably be ready by the first of the week for occupancy. This will give the committee a prominent place where every one coming into the city will have his attention called to the headquarters. The commit- tee will be ready to pass upon exhibits to be placed in the headquarters by the first of next week. A vervimportant meeting was held yes- terday between the representatives of the committee and the general passenger agents who are now visiting the city and who repre-ent three of the larze Eastern railroads. They are ss follows: John Sebastian, general passenger agent Chi- cago, Rock Island and Pacific; Manager 8. K. Hooker, general passenger agent Denver and Rio Grande, and F. A. Wad- leigh..general passenger agent Rio Grande and Western. They expressed themselves to the com- mittee as being ready to offer every facility for advertising San Francisco ~through their offices and agents in the East that will be given any other city. They believe, after very careful inve-ti- gatlon, that the number coming to the coast between now and next spring will | be in excess of 100,000. One case was quoted where 150 people had already paid itheir money in advance for tickels to Alaska to the agent of one company. The Alaska committee has received a letter from J. C. Stubbs of the Southern Pacific Railway, in which he pledges the support of the company in eftorts to ad- vance the commercial interests of San Frencizco. Canvassing for funds tor carrying out the purposes of the committee is in active operation, and very good results are noted. Two of the canvassers report the | following subscriptions: | H.
