Captain of Police Wittman saw that everything in the way of policemen and other facilities for enjoymernit were extended to the visit- ing guests in the Chinese quarter. No nook or cranny was left unexplored. But up at Golden Gate Hall on Sutter street there was woe. Like at the charge at Balaklava, “‘Some one had blundered.” There were plenty of dancers, plenty of punch and other things, but the sched- uled orchestra was absent. Colonel Murphy, it is said, was the cul- prit, but whether or no, it took but little time to make amends and gather some musicians together. In the meanwhile an impromptu entertainment was given, for the Shriners are rich in talent, and Billy Hynes did the rest. He is new to the visitors, The hall was beautifully decorated with galms. ferns and Shriner flags. Punch | owls and accessories were in every con- venient nook, and when the musical tan- gle was solved, dancing went on merrily. | For to-day a trip on the bay has been | Elanned. The steamer James M. Dono- ue, fresh from the ways, will be taxed to its utmost éapacity to carry ajl who want to make the trip. The Union Iron Works, Hunters Point, Sausalito, Belvedere, Ra. coon Straits and The Brothers and Sis- ters will be visited. About 4 o'clock the caravan is expected to return and pre- pare for the further pilgrimage across | the sea to Honolulu. It is expected that the Shriners will embark on an ocean | liner this evening at 9 o'clock. 1 Tllustrious Potentate J. C. Campbell at the close of the reception entertained Su- preme Potentate Lou B.
