The exalted ruler appointed George E. de Golia of Oakland Lodge chairman of the soclal session. After patriotic selec- tions by the orchestra and the singing of the “Star:spangled Banner” by the vis- | ftors and hundreds of Elks present, Gen- eral W. H. L. Barnes delivered the ad- dress of welcome, which was a most elo- quent and patriotic_effort, and was vo- ciferously applauded. In conclusion he said that the strangers had been favor- ably impressed by the welcome from the ladles; *but wait,” he said “till you re- turn visitations, and the welcome they will give you there will be such that ail the unmarried men will never return to the States from which they came.” The response was by Colonel Jewett, and then there were addresses by Colonel Reaves, Lieutenant \Colonel Ames and others, and a programme of song and music by professional talent from all the theaters in the city except from the Cali- fornia. There was an abundance of refresh- ments. The meeting closed with expres- sions of godspeed to the soldiers and cheers for the flag. S Presidio to Be Made Sanitary. The presence of the United States vol- unteers on private camping grounds is a subject that the Chamber of Commerce has seen fit to take notice of, and in or- der that the Government may be made aware of that fact, torether with the ne- cessity of putting the grounds at the Pre- sidio In proper sanitary condition, the following dispatch was forwarded to Sen- ator Perkins vesterday from the Cham- ber of Commerce: CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. SAN FRANCISCO, June 3, 1898, Hon. George C. Perkins, Washington, D. C.: Please present this to the California delegation. 1t 1s suddeniy found that the Presidio military reservation is not fit for a large military camp. It is sadly short of water and inadequately sewered. The soldiers sent to the city are camped on private property. The trouble is Very serlous in view of possible emergencies and should be remedied at once. Other coast Citles have noted the failure of the Presidio to meet military demands and propose offering the Government land for rendezvous purposes with a view of drawing the soldiers away from here. Steps should be taken to immediately provide the Presidio with the proper supply of fresh water and to have it properly sewered, every portion. of it.

Soldiers Pursue a Prisoner With Fixed Bayonets. The sight of eight stalwart soldiers | charging through the streets with fixed | bayonets in pursult of a fugitive cre- | ated a great deal of excitement at North Beach vesterday afternoon. i Private Madison of Company E, Wash- | ington Volunteers, has for some days been confined in the guardhouse, await- ing sentence for shamming sickness and | using vile and abusive language to an | officer, Yesterday afternoon he was per- mitted to go out for exercise under the | uard of a sentry. five-foot board | ence runs along the easterly end of the | i Fontana barracks ground, and as the couple approached the prisoner suddenly made a bold dash and scaled the fence. The sentry jabbed at him with a hay-l‘ onet and missed. Then the chase began. | Lieutenant Weigle, the officer of the | guard, was near by when the incident oc- | curred, and he at once called the guard | and started in pursuit. The chase was | hot down Francisco street to Jones, where | the fugitive cut across lots, over a fence | and into a house fronting on Bay street. | TLieutenant Weigle at once posted a guard around the house, and after a long search | finally discovered the prisoner hiding un- | der a bed. When dragged out he was crestfallen and sullen and permitted him- self to be taken back to the guard- house without attempting to resist. It has not been customary for the sen- tries to carry ammunition, it having here- tofore been considered unnecessary, but in the future they will be prepared for any emergency which may arise. On his return to the barracks Lieutenant Weigle was warmly commended for his activity in recapturing the prisoner. The Soldiers’. Postoffice. Postmaster Montague has fixed upon the corner of Fourth avenue and C as the site for the temporary branch post- office for the accommodation of the sol- diers. ~ Only mail deposited by or ad- dressed to soldiers will be handled, and all classes of mail including registered letters and packages will be received. ! The only mail business which will not be done will be the issuance and receipt of money orders. Through Postmaster Montague's efforts the department at Washington has made an allowance for the salary of three clerks for that work, and the San Fran- cisco Board of Supervisors have granted Mr. Montague the use of one of the port- able election booths free of charge.
