Judge Conlan intimated from the bench yesterday morning that he would not is- sue any more warrants for the arrest of the women in Bacon place. When the cases of those arrested Fri- day night were called neither Secretary Kane nor his attorney was present. At- torney Ach, for the defendants, asked the Judge not to issue any more warrants until the present cases, over 100 in num- ber, were disposed of. He said he meant no disrespect to the court, but unless no more warrants were issued he would ap- ply to the Superior Court for a writ of prohibition. The Judge said he had not been get- ting the support from the prosecution to which he was entitled, and he was get- ting sick of it. . “Kane came into court yesterday,” he said, “and wanted to know why the de- fendants were not present. 1 told him to consult his attorney and he would find out that it had been agreed that the de- fendants need not appear in court to be arraigned. Kane objected to the meth- ods of his attorney, remarking that he wd not know how to prosecute the cases.” The Judge informed Attorney Ach that he did not propose to be dragged into the Superior Court, and asked him to delay the issuance of the writ of prohibition until to-morrow, as he intended to take advice in the matter. Meantime he would not sign any more warrants. —_———————— My clothes to order appeals with special force to men of exacting taste.

SOLEMN OBLIGATIONS TAKEN UNUSUAL SCENE IN MASONIC TEMPLE. For the First Time a Chapter of the Great Order Is Allowed to Ob- ligate Its Officials There. The ever beautiful and impressive cere- mony of installation of officers of the Eastern Star, the adjunct of Masonry, is so fascinating that it always attracts a great many of wne membership whenever it is performed, and a large number of strangers to Lue order when the installa- tion is a public one. There was no exception to the general rule last Thursday night, when the officers who will serve for the current term for Golden Gate Chapter were installed in the hall of Golden Gate Commandery by Mar- tin August C. Christesen, the retiring wor- thy patron. The hall was tastefully dec- orated, and prominent as tne star in the east blazing over the worthy matron's station was the American flag. The cere- mony was a very acceptable one, and in the work the installing officer was assist- ed by Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Pendleton, act- ing as grand marshal. The new officers are: Mrs. Ada R. Duncan, worthy matron; Ernest K. Head, worthy patron; Miss Maggie Ella Bradley, associate matron; Mrs. Mary Anna Hawley, secretary; Mrs. Ellen Condon, ,treasurer; | Terwillinger, conductress; Miss Minnie Jellinek, associate conductress, who were elected; and Miss Louise McElroy, mar- | shal; Mrs. Harriet Augusta Hobe, chap- lain; Miss Frances Perkins Tower, ward- | ers Mrs. Mary Hammond Lewis, sentinel; | Miss Louise B. Stevenson, organist; Miss | Ada Linne, Adah; Mrs. Kate Burnham, | | Ruth; Miss Ada Emily Goddard, Esther; Miss Cora Harrison, Martha; and Mrs. Lizzie Carleton Gray, Electa. The music was rendered by the Temple quartet, con- | sisting of C. T. Wendell, first tenor; R. | 'W. Smith, second tenor; A. A. Batkin, | first bass, and E. G. MacBain, second | bass. The solos were “Lean on Him,” | second tenor; ‘‘Father Supreme,’ first tenor; “Master Supreme,” second bass, and “Jesus, Lover of My Soul,” first tenor. There were also several exquisitely | rendered quartet selections, the last being *“Gloria.”/ Among those who crowded the { hall—-many being obliged to stand in the anterooms, the wide doors of which were open and gave such an opportunity to get a view of what was transpiring—there | were Past Most Worthy Grand Matron Mrs. Mary E. Partridge, Grand Matron s. W. F. Pierce, Past Grand Matron Mary A. Flint, Mrs. Ada Dalton Hewes, matron of Oak Leaf Chapter; mrs. Susana Dow, matron of Ivy Chapter; Mrs. Annfe M. Johnson, matron-elect of Har- mony Chapter; Mrs. Lydia A. Steele, ma- tron-elect of Ivy Chapter, and Miss Nellie A. Brown, matron of Beulah Chapter, be- sides many who are prominent in the order, not to omit William S. Moses, the father of the order, who founded Golden Gate Chapter more than thirty years ago. After the ceremony there were a number of short addresses by grand officers and | others, and one was by the worthy asso- ciate grand patron, George L. arling, who, on behalf of the chapter, thanked Miss Susan M. Willats, the retiring ma- tron, for the efficlency with which she had conducted the affairs of the chanrer during the year, and then, on behalf of | the members, presented her with the jewel of a past matron. It is much smaller than those usually given, but is one of tae most exquisite arrangements of diamonds on a star that has ever been presented in the chapter. On Friday night there was an unusual scene in King Solomon’s Hall in the Ma- sonic Temple at Post and Montgomery streets. That was the installation of the officers of a chapter of the Eastern Star in a Masonic lodgeroom. It was the first time that such a ceremony has been per- mitted in the halls of the temple, and never but once before has there been a meeting of Eastern Star members in that temple, and that was when Robert Mor- ris, the founder of the order, was in this city many years ago, when as a special | favor to him he was given the use of | one of the lodgerooms in wi the mem- | bers could assemble, Durimg the evening John H. Gray, past worthy grand pat- ron, in speaking of the rise of the order, sald that it was not many years ago in the State of New York that the doors of every Masonic lodgeroom were closed against the membership of the East- ern Star, but now that it has become un- | derstood that the Eastern Star is the | natural ally of the Masonic fraternity in its great work of charity, New York has given the order the privilege of renting any Masonic lodgeroom in the jurisdic- tion in which to hold meetings, and that the example set by the Empire State has been followed by many jurisdictions, Cal- ifornia being one of them, particularly San Francisco. The hall was decorated as it never was decorated before. On the walls were fes- toons of soft material in the five colors of the order—blue, yellow, white, green and red—fastened at the looping points with five-pointed stars of gold. The grand pillars in the west were decorated with garlands of cholce flowers, and the several stations were each a bank of ever- greens and blossoms. A remarkable and pleasing feature of the installation was that all the ladies installed as officers were, with the exception of the conduc~ tress, attired white, the exception be- ing pink. Mrs. Lizzie D. Wetjen, the re- tiring matron, was the installing officer, and she was assisted by Mrs. Sallie Houghton Mulberry, past matron, as grand marshal. The work was done in a perfect manner and there was not a mistake in the memorized work or the movements in the floor work, and in com- plimentary speeches made by the asso- ciate grand patron, George L. Darling, who is a member of Golden Gate, and John Hatfield Gray, Sast grand patron and member of Ivy Chapter, each said that it was the most beautiful installa- tion that ever had been witnessed in San Francisco. This opinion was con- curred in by the six hundred persons who witnessed it. The new officers are: Mrs. Annie M. Johnson, worthy matron; W. J. Savage, worthy patron; Mrs. Emma Carter, asso- ciate matron; Miss Eva May Hare, secre- tary; Mrs. TIsadora Horton, treasurer; Mrs. Nona L. Sanborn, conductress, and Mrs. Frederica Junker, associate con- ductress. These are the elected officers. The appointed ones are: Robert N. Car- son, chaplain; Mrs. Lizzle D. Wetjen, marshal; Miss Emma Hare, or; ist; Miss Cordie Wetjen, Adah; Henrietta McLagan, uth; Miss lian May Kimball, Esther; Lil- lian Brownson, Martha, and Mrs. Car- rie Lucas, Electa. After all the other of- ficers except the marshal were installed Mrs. Wetjen, the installing officer, sur- rendered to the incoming matron, who then installed her as marshal. There were addresses of an interesting character by the associate grand patron, Past Most Worthy Grand Matron Mrs. Partridge, Past Grand Patron Gray, Grand Secre- tary Mrs. Kate J. Willats, the worthy patron, W. J. Savage, and M. Burnham of the board of temple directors, who al- lowed the use of the lodgeroom for the occasion. Mrs. Wetjen. the retiring ma- tron, was, by Elia: Hare, on behalf of the membership of Harmonv Chapter, presented a very elegant jewel, a diamond mounted star pen from a pair of gold wings, held together by a solitaire. returning thanks Mrs. Wetjen said tha the success of the chapter is due to the fact that it carries out the sublime virtue in fraternal life, indicated by the name of the chapter, Harmony.

Shocking Treatment of a Fine Dog by Deputy Poundmen. Dr. Creeley, the veterinary surgeon, re- ports a most shocking case of cruelty to animals on the part of a couple of the Poundmaster’s deputies. Last Wednes- day two of the deputies on horseback were riding along I street and noticed a valu- able dog, belonging to C. H. Cashman, a letter carrier living at 1516 of that street. ‘Without reason or provocation the fellows lassoed the animal and started on a run with it, dragging it along the ground. The deputies seemed to enjoy the ‘‘sport” of making the poor beast suffer and its howls of pain increased rather than di- minished the brutality. Mrs. Cashman ran into the street and begged the men not to abuse the dog, which is a great favorite with the family, but they only laughed at her entreaties. % ‘When they did stop dragging it about it ‘was clearly seen that their inhuman treat- ment had broken one of the poor brute's legs. Mrs. Cashman begged them to re- lease the pet, but they said that it was a captured animal and as good as being in the pound. Then she asked them to re- lease it _and she would pay them for so doing. They said that they would do so upon the.payment of $2 50. The distressed lady told them that she did not have that amount of money in the house. By this time the brutal deputies found that the dog’s leg had been broken by them and they said under this consideration—the broken leg—they would let the dog go for $1 50. Mrs. Cashman gave them the money and the ruffians released the suffering ani- mal. The poor creature was badly bruised aside from the injuries to its leg. It was taken to the doctor for treatment. The fact that the fellows were on horseback is sufficient to show that they were not regular dog catchers, but had been sent out to gather in stray horses and cattle. Their treatment of the dog was unneces- sary, even if they had been sent out to gather in canines, but their extortion of money from a woman under the circum- stances is regarded as equal to a case of hold-up.
