It is the custom of this c'ub to give its exhibitions cach year just before the holiiars,and each year there has been an improvement over the last. This exhibition is no exception to the | decoration on the same table with the ivory portraiture of Mrs. T, 8, Taylor, who | excels in this particular line. Mrs. 8. E. Dutton, with a series of mono- cnrome monks<; Miss Chubb of Los An- geles, with nudes und poriraits, and Mrs. | Sohurtleff, with a tobacco jar decorated | with monks as their best, have a good dis- | play. Mrs. J. 3. Adams occupies two tables | and her exhibit arranged in a most piessing manner. A very large punch Dowl and a jardeniers with delicate deco- rations are her best pieces. | Tuhe most striking dispiay of the exhibit, showing exquisite taste in arrangement ) as well as fine technique in work, is that iv[ Mrs. T. W. Church. The large table trranged with a varied assort- ment showing a range or versatilily not | often seen. A beautitul vase surmounis the pyramid with most exquisite lining and delicate tracing, while on the corner is a tankard surrounded by mugs done in a new reddaish-brown monochrome. Her old faces are especially well drawn and on | the finer work, especially noticeable on a | vignette buckle, there is a fineness that is hardly expected in Keramics. A beauti- ful lovipg-cun was cracksd in firing. Mrs. M. E. Perley, Mrs. & V. Culp and | Mrs. T. J. Le Tourneux have a large table beautifully arranged. Miss Perley has fallen victim to the latest Eas ern fad and 2n exquisite Persian bowi which at- s much attention. Shealso hasa beau- t of Doulton plates and a tankard in b.aekverries thatare especially gooi. Mrs. Culp’s game set and her Doulton vase with orchids are her best, while in Mrs. Le Tourneux’s exhibit her heliotrope tray, | curysanthemum 1ankard and Persian plate are most noticeabie pieces. The Keram Club was organizea in 1890 and has thirty-five active members, !ail of whom but three have exhibits this | year. Mre. L. L. Baker isnow tbe presi- | dent of the club, she having had that | bonor since its organization, Dur ng the exhibit articles will be sold and 10 per cent of the proceeds wiil go to the club to assist in defrayinz its ex- pensest Each exhibitor must have ten or more pieces displayed and must sell at | lesst tive of them.

Michael Philbon, a laborer in the Union Iron Works, was almost instantly killed yesterday morning in the foundry of that establishment by a plank, which fell ubon his head. | Some riveters were repairing a traveling | | crane twenty-five feet from | on the day’ the floor, a scaffold of planks having been arranged before. One of the planks about five feet long was placed across the | others, and was accidentally knocked off BREAKERS ROAR, VESSELS WAIT Vessels Cannot Get In and Coasters Will Not Venture Out, All the Shipping in Port Warned to Get Ready for a Southeaster, Freights Are on the Jump and Handy | Vessels Are Holding Out for Big Rates. The shipping south of Market sireet had | a lively time of it yesterday. It blew hard all the morning, but lulled during the first part of the aiternoon only to come up again with renewed force toward sun- down. About 4 P. M. Assistant Chief Wharfinger Scott notified all the vessels at the wharves from Meiggs wharf to the the storm, and the Oregon from the same port had not been heard from last evening. The Co.umvia was caught in a heavy southeast gale and wien the bar was reached the captain did nof like to face it in the fog » On theuptrip when off Crescent City the Columbia passed a whitehall boat bottom | up. The steamer left here on November 29, two day - after Mr. Sweetser went_ fish- ing at Lime Point. As Crescent City is over 270 miles from San Francisco, it is | hardly poss ble that the overtzrned boat | could be ihe one in which he left Sausa- | lito a week aco last Saturday. The launches Amy, William D and America lving at the Folsom-street whari had to seek shelter from the storm. Both | the Amy and thie W:lliam D had the cabin windows broken and their cabins Hoded, after which Henry Peterson thought it was betier to seek a safer berth. The French steamer La Madeline also got ready for any emergency by getting up sieam. She islying at the Howard-street wharf, and the captzin is ready to move at once into the stream should the storm prove too much for his vessel asshe lies moored at the wharf. The American ship Wachusett, seventy- two davs irom Sydney, aad a lively time ofit. On September 29 sie ran into a gale, which lasted two days. She was | hove to under lower topsaiis, but even | then labored heavily. The decks were | flooted, the charthouse was stove in and | everything movable was washed over- | boari. Luckily no one was injured, and the vessel reached port safely, Tne Pacific Mail Cempany's steamer | City of Pekine brought more work for the Quarantine Officer of the State Board of Horticulture. Mr. Craw will have to | fumigate nearly 5000 cases of Japanese |oranges and a lurge consignment of | potted plaats.

There is a simp and unpre- out the display that makes tractive and greatly strengtn- ens the idea that keramics belong to higher art. Tnhe heavy rainstorm probably pre- vented a crush, but it was not sufficient to keep away a crowd. 1he room was well filled from the time the doors were opened until they ciosed last night, and while it was not a demonstrative crowd it was a very enthusiastic and appreciative one. Last night a string orchesira was in at- tendance and added to the pleasure of a visit to the room. The exhibitidn will con- tinue to-day. To attempt to individualize the works of art to be seen on the tabies would neces: tate an itemized list of articles. To say that one exhibit would indicate_a lack of knowledge, for each exhibitor is a specialist in some line of work i which she excels. At best, then, there can be but a passing and hu ried description of the special features each of the tables. Tue two tables filled with the work of Miss Alice Herrick and Mrs. May Herrica- Ross are mede attractive by the artistic display of the ware. The most notic-able features cf this displav are the punch- bowl done in currants, a beautiful tankard an! a set done :n green violet-.

Thomas Post and representatives to the Depart- ment Encampment, G. A. R., for the year 1898 took place last evening. The stormy | weather did not prevent a large attend- ance. Thers were two candidates for post com- mander, J. Murray Bailey and William E. Lutz. The former was chosen, receiving sixty-three votes. There were thirty four votes for Mr. Lutz and eight sca‘tering. Other cfficers elected were: Senior vice-commander, John H. Roberts juuior vice-commander, E. Wiegand: quar master, C. H.

When the vote for commander was an- nounced Mr. Lutz moved to make the elec- tion of Mr. Bailey unanimous. In agrace. ful speech accepting the result he a-ked his SUDPOTLers to susiain the new commander | by punctual attendance at meetings of the post. The motion declaring Mr. Bailey the unanimous choice of the post pre- vailed. Charles H.

Many of the captains had taken warn- ing from their glasses and had made everything snug before the news reached them. The big ship Shenandoah at Har- rison street was in the most exposed posi- tion on the water-front and Captain Dun- phy not only saw to it that everything was snug, but had everything in readi- ness to move into the stream should the position become untenable. Not one of the masters of the ships in pectation of heavy weather they got out extra anchors and prepared for the worst, not face a breaking bar, so the craft re- mained at anchor. A four-masied ship with a pilot aboard is ou'side and the bar kept her there. The steam =chooners Newsboy, Bunal, Alcatraz and Noyo and the schooner Neptune wero to havs ssiled for coast poris, but they also remrinet at their moorings, the captains deciding to wait for a change in the weather.

Members of the San Francisco Commercial Travelers at War, Trouble Caused by a Part of Their Number Organizing the Califor- nia Commercial Travelers. There was a “‘hot time’’ at the meeting of the San Francisco Commercial Trav- elers last evening. It was all because a portion of their nuwber had seen fit to organize a little social party among themselves and the main party thought they were presuming, and accused them of organizing a body within a body because they represented some of the leading houses on the coast. Last evening the question came up, and President Dunn led a fight in which it was moved to expel the entire number who bad organizea what is called the Califor- nis Commercial Travelers. They were charged with having formed & body detrimental to the main body as :_-e:l as having given information to THE | ALL. | Wuen the question came up a regular four--ided debate started, and no one could be heard in the din tuat foliowed.
