Otis on Politics. AFFAIRS IN THE PHILIPPINES WILL LEAVE FOR L1OS AN- GELES IMMEDIATELY. The General Thinks the War in the Far East Will Be Ended in a Very Few Weeks. -—_ | The modern Caesar has arrived. The valiant brigadier from the Southland, | whose cablegrani from Manila announc- ing that he had “crossed the Rubicon” thrilled the hearts and sent the blood leaping with jc bounds through the veins of his vassals in Los Angeles is here, having reached this port on the transport Sherman en route to his home, where a reception befitting his deeds of daring on the bloody battlefields of the Far East awaits him. General Harrison Gray ments in the Philippine are current history, but the deed which is | destined to send his name echoing down the corridors of time is his daring emu- | lation of the Roman conqueror. With a | ngle stroke of the pen he put himself on | 1 plane far above all other military heroes | of the epoch and took his place on the | pinnacle of fame along with the greatest | | heroes of ancient and modern tim | Lawton, MacArthur, Wheaton and the | imesake of this nineteenth century as they are doing avage Tagallos n to Uncle Sam, but their 1 s pale in comparison with the | | feat of Harrison Gray Otis of Los Ange- | les. They are not the only generals who e the abality to win batties, but who ve he could cross the Rubicon without tting wet. 2 But what has induced this warrior of | Los Angeles to leave the scene of war is to be bought at the can- Why return to_the land of and orange blossoms? The whisper comes from the South that politics is the moving cau that the newly-created | Caesar must ve the hard field of noisy | battle for the soft endeavors of politics “I have returned because my bu and clvil interests demanded it, General Otis vesterday afternoon as stamped up and down the reading room the Occidental Hotel. “I have not given politics any thought, and. if T had, ou otis’ campaign achieve- what of it?. You ask me if I intend going a delegate at large to the next Na- | tional Republican convention? Tt is ab- surd to figure on anything so far in ad- vance. I do not wish to hing | more on that matter. If | know anything about the 1 will most willingly edify | about ended. The natives have neither nor ammunition. They are with- scipline, order or leaders, and they can not last more than a few weeks at the most. The war is practically over.” The general showed great pertubation »f mind when the suhject of politics was again approached, and he would have no | more of it. DEWEY DAY FEATURES AT | CATHOLIC LADIES’ FARR| PATRIOTIC SONGS AND RECITA- | TIONS WILL BE GIVEN. The Voting Contest for the Most Pop- ular Policeman or Fireman Gaining in Interest. Dewey day will be appropriately cele- brated at the Catholic Lad: Aid So- ciety’s bazaar, a special programme in- | cluding many pleasing features having on. .To-night | nd Daughters’ | orchestra of | been arranged for the occ will be “Native Sons’ night,” and Dennis Foley's ! twelve pieces will render patriotic music | gratuitously; Mr. Gildea will sing origi- | nal compositions on Admiral.Dewey; Mr. Morrisey will -recite, and Mrs. Fitzsim- mons will render patriotic selections on the harp. The decorations for the occa- sion are donated by Mr. Sleicher. The voting contest for the most popu- lar policeman or fireman will he confined during the remaining week of the fair, in accordance with the original plan, to | the three standing at the head of the list | in each department. A total of 782 votes have been cast, and of these Sergeant J. B. Martin has received 133, Sergeant T, Shea 127, Sergeant M. J. Conboy 119, Chief of the Fire Department D. T.

Sergeant Martin | at present heads the list, but the friends of each of the other five are confident that their candidate will have the major- ity of votes when the polls close on Sat- urday night. The fair is gaining in pop- ily, and it is almost certain to prove the financial success that was ex- pected for it. e e A MISSION PANHANDLE. Superintendent McLaren’s Scheme to | Make a Boulevard of Dolores | Street. Park Superintendent M cLaren has hit upon a plan, devised during the rainy days when the park was deserted, as vesterday, that will loubtless please the people of the Mission and be a great ad- dition to the present scheme to extend the panhandle to Van Ness avenue. Mr. Me- Laren is of the opiiion that Dolores street, which is wide and for a long wa out into the Mission is free from car tracks, should be made into a boulevard and trees set along the curb as far out as Twenty-sixth street. Then Buchanan street at the junction of that thorough- fare and Dolores should be widened al into a_boulevard to_ the proposed exten- sion of the panhandle. This would give the people of the Mission a panhandle to the park. | The park was deserted vesterday. Tt was free day for the children at the Chutes, as it will be to-day, and hundr of voungsters enjoyed themselv. ' baby monkey will be named to-day and the winner of this novel contest will take | home either a_bicycle or sewing machine. | At Sutro’'s Baths the Japanese troupe | of acrobats and expert swimmers enter- tained the guests. Following are the re. | sults of the aquatic contests: 50-vard dash, for novices, won by R. Bedford, | J. O'Brien second; 30-vard dash, for ju. | veniles, won by C. Donovan, R. Bedford | second; 50-yard dash, for amateurs, won by W. Hurley, R. Dahl second; high div- ing, won by O. Schulte; trapeze diving, won by P! Guerin, O. Beyfus second. Esgei T man Picnic at Shell Mound. | The rainy weather failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the several hundred people | who attended the thirtieth annual picnic | and reunion of the Knights of the Red Branch at Shell Mound Park yesterday. On account of the inclement conditions the various scheduled racing events were | | not run off, but were postponed until June | | 18th, when the Knights of the Red Branch | Rifles will hold a picnic at San Jose. A | similar course was taken with the gate prizes and those for jig and rell danecing. The joint picnic promises to be a big suc- cess, and the list of valuable gate and | game prizes will be a large one. —_——— eds | Che | | *99" Cleveland bicycles, $40 and $50; *99" | Crescents, §35.
