CHIEF OF THE PENSION BUREAU HERE FOR REST GENERAL EVANS VISITS HIS SON AT THE PRESIDIO. The Government’s Disburser Gives Some Very Interesting Statis- tics Concerning the Magni- tude of the Depart- ment. Among the distinguished arrivals of ves- terday was Henry Clay Evans, United States Commissioner of Pensions, who ar- rived from Washington and Is now a guest of his son, Lieutenant H. C. Evans Jr:'of the Third Artillery, now at the Pre- o. si neral Evans says he is here merely to visit his son and to enjoy a short respite from the constant strain of his official dutfes in Washington. Though an ardent expansionist, he will not discuss anything pertaining to politics, as he says he gets enough of that subject at home and wishes to leave it aside when he is out on a vacation. General Evans reports the bureau over which he exercises authority as being in an exceedingly prosperous condition, and he glves some interesting statistics’ con- cerning the magnitude of the concern. The distributions amounted last year to the enormous sum of $138,255,000, and it @ uired the services of a Commissioner, fteen chiefs of division and 17 other clerks to do the work. Since the Spanish-American war there have been 14,000 applications made and 303 allowed. This does not include ows of the men who perished with the Maine and who are being cared for at the maximum rate. General Evans will remain here about a week and will then return East to re- — e DIED IN A FIT. Balloon-Maker Villeneuve Passed Away in His Lonely Room Without Witnesses. Henry A.

Walter Main's monster circus gave its | inftial evening performance last night at | Recreation Park, corner of Sixteenth and | Folsom streets, and judging from the big crowd that filed into the m; e tents it is safe to predict that large audiences | | be entertained at every performance. ature of the varied performance aining. Some of its vaude- are as good as if not better than any here in years. The Liv- | ingston family 'do a unique tumbling act that wins merited applause from all s: ons of the d stands. Joe Barris' horse act is indeed marvelous The th Petite broth do a thrilling act on the trapeze and one of | them, made up as clowns, makes a won- | derful jump from the safe net to the trapeze. Lil Perslate and nis troupe of performing pigs brought forth spasms of mingled appreciation_and laughter. | Professor John H. Gill's band of thirty pleces furnished circus music that has no | place in the old stereotyped order that as- sails the ears days after the show has | departed. It dispenses high-class music and after every piece everybody feels strongly tempted to applaud. Captain Thompson's Rough Riders, all of whom saw active service under Teddy Roosevelt in the charge up San Juan Hill, do some reckless riding and win rounds of applause. Mile. Burke does a toe revolving act in midair that makes the nerves twitch and the heart beat faster. All in all Main's circus is the best that has amused a San Francisco auaience in many a year. A score of clowns are prancing around the big tent all the even- ing and they make more noise and cause more genuine laughter in a_minute than a dog with a tin can tied to his tail wiuld in’s whols yoar. ¢ Main's menagerie embraces every spe- cies of wild beast from performing mon. keys to the largest elephant in the world, The sideshow is an unusually entertaining adjunct to the big show. It contains every known species of freak from the midget to the fat man and the manage- ment hopes to secure before the show de- parts a man who writes names with his reath. —_————— George Marks Missing.
