The general uncertainty as to the * ' of the Governor w shared last by the Ban Francisco legislative legation. It met last night at the office | of Assemblyman Cobb in the Parrott| buflding to discuss the proposition of go- ing to sea on the Santa Rosa to meet the returning troops, but found after a very little talk that they were already there, figuratively speaking.

Answer. Headquarters, I House.” Acceptances had been recetved from the Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Controller, Treasurer and many legi tors. Mr. Miller stated that the Governor had told him that he had made other arran ments and could not join the lawmak the Santa Rosa. ‘He is coming with us, all right,” said | a member. “I saw him to-day and he sald that he had changed his plans and would be with us. Some one wanted to know who else had | been invited, and Mr. Miller replied that | among others were the members of the | citizens’ executive committee. This did | rot please Assemblyman E. D. Sullivan. | He claimed that the committee had of- fered an_insult to the executive and that as Mr. Gage accepted their invitation to accompany them on the Santa Rosa It | would be small courtesy to him to bring | along the men who had not shown him | the proper respect. Another member suggested that it was by no means certain that the Governor was golng with them, and Mr. Miller reaffirmed that he had de- clined_the invitation.

WATCH THE DOME OF THE CALL BUILDING. EEP your eye on the dome of the tallest structure in town. If you do so, you will know exactly when the transport Sher- man has reached the homestretch and is about to enter the harbor. Immediately after the ship is sighted by the Merchants’ Exchange The Call will send up from the dome of its building a box kite, the same as used by the United States Weather Bureau. Attached to this kite will be a sixteen-foot flag, which will be sent to a point 800 feet above the dome, thus making it 615 feet from the ground. This will be of sufficient height to be seen not only by the resi- dents of San Francisco, but also by those of the neighboring towns. Every one will thus have the promptest kind of notification, and can make his or her preparations accordingly for participating in the welcome to “the boys.” Be sure to keep your eye on the dome. ation to the execu- | craw] out of the invi The night demon ignated as will be the g stration, officially des ht on 'F B: grandest marine display th has ever been witnessed in this harbor, and the first impression which the return- ing California volunteers will receive of what has been done to welcome them should be a pleasurable one.

The current was turned on at the City Hall about8:300’clock, large crowds being gathered on the surrounding streets. The burning out of a fuse de- layed the illumination, but in a short time | it was replaced and the lights were found to work beautifully, although they were not turned on for any length of time, as the comrhittee was even then due at the ferry bullding. crowds that had gathered on East street let up one great yell, which was repeatea and_carried uptown, causing everybody on Market: street to turn to be rewarded by a sight of the most beautiful night spectacle ever produced in the city. And that's only one end of it. No won- der the decoration committee works, and small wonder it should be proud of its efforts. Everybody has seen Herrmann and other prestidigitators produce three kinds of wine from the same bottle, but it has re- mained for the citizens’ decoration com- mittee to make palm leaves, Christmas trees and graceful dracaenas sprout from one and the same telephone pole, or lamp- post, as the\case might be. They have done it, however, and nothing like it has ever béen seen before in any other city | and, despite the oddity of this sudden burgeoning, no prettier effect, to judge even now at the uncompleted stage, could be_imagined. The work of putting in place the world | of palm, Christmas tree branches ana dracaena, willingly donated by the entire | San Fran- | State for the beautification o cisco, was begun yesterday morning, when 135 Colorado volunteers came in from the Presidio to put fhemselves uns der the orders of the decoration commit- tee. They were divided up into squads, provided with new hatchets and nails, and, under the direction of the florists of the ‘city, who had also volunteered their services, started to transform Market street into a tropical vista. How well they succeeded was seen last night by the thousands and thousands of people who crowded that thoroughfare to note the march of preparation. Along the south side, from the ferry to Tenth street, not a lamppost or a telephone pole that had not been converted into a very fair representation of a tree. On the north side, from East street to Ellis, a similar beautiful effect had been secured. The work will be completed to-day. The beauty of this leafy decoration is en- hanced by wreaths and bunting and flags on the buildings on_each side, to place which the owners . have gone to much trouble and expense. The decoration of the ferry building, inside and out, is progressing rapidly, and to-morrow will see the water front in holiday attire. The citizens' executive committee have allowed the Harbor Com- missioners an additional $500 for the dis~ play, and Chief Wharfinger Henderson, who has that feature in charge, has al- | + % We close every day at six, Saturday included. <=3 We shall close the day of our heroes’ street parade. when the boys march up Market B street it will be California’s holi- day. every employe of Hale’s is a true Californian, and we want them to greet the boys from Manila. hence our store will be closed.
