Chief Burgomaster Kirschner replied hotly, urging the assembly to r in mind’ the respect it owed to the head of the state. He approved the resolution, however, and expressed the hope that the city would yet obtain what"it wanted. Later on in the discussion Herr Singer referred to Emperor William's speech to the Alexander Regiment of Guards, in which his Majesty said that he would,'if necessary, quell the impudence and in- subordination of the Berliners with the bayonets of the guards. Herr Kirschner again replied. He sald that the Emperor's words were not as strong as reported. They were also ex- plicable from a psychological and human point of view, as the speech was delivered Just after the attack on the Kaiser at Bremen. Nevertheless, Herr Kirschner gfnr:llled the imperial speech had pained Young Men’s Institute.

LONDON, Cct. 5.—There is a flutter in high society owing to the fact that the Earl Marshal has issued the rules and regulations governing what is to be worn at the coronation of King Edward next year. The whole document breathes of the .middle ages, when distinctions in dress were considered so essential and the quaintness of the phraseology in which the attendance of the nobility of the United Kingdom is required ‘“at th solemnity of the royal coronation of their most sacred majesties,” and’_describing the regulations in regard to dresses and head dresses is distinctly medieval. There is a curious gradation in the fur trimmings of the robes which emphasizes the fine distinctions existing in the ranks of the aristocracy. All the Peers have been notified that their robes must be of “crimson velvet, edged with miniver, the cape furred with miniver, pure and pow- dered with bars or rows of ermine, ac- cording to their degree. Here fallow the numerical graduations distinguishing between the ranks. Barons are allowed two rows of ermine, Viscounts two and a half rows, Earls three rows, Marquises three and a half rows an Dukes: four rows. All the mantles and robes must be worn over full court dress, uniform or regimentals. The Earl arshal’s order . banishes.| counterfeit pearls and all jewels from coronets, which are to be “siiver gilt, the caps of crimson velvet, turned up with ermine, with gold tassels on top. No Jewels or precious stones are to be set in coronets, nor counterfeits of pearls in- stead of silver balls.” The number of th latter permitted revives a nice sense of distinction. A Baron's coronet bears six silver balls, a Viscount's sixteen, an Earl's eight with gold strawberry leaves between, a Marquis’ four balls and four leaves alternately. A Duke’'s coronet has no balls and has only eight gold straw- Rerry leaves. The Earl Marshal next prescribes the robes, mantles and coronets to be worn bv the Peeresses. These are of the same materials as the men’s, with similar graa- uations in the number of bars of ermine and balls. The length of the trains mark the difference in rank. A Baroness i3 only allowed a train of three feet, a Viscount- ess has one and a quarter yards, Count- esses have one and a half yards, a Mar- chioness has one and three-quarter yards and a Duchess two vards. Then follows a curt notification as to who shall be excluded. Peeresses in thelr own right and widows of Peers are al- lowed to attend, but widows who have remarried beneath their rank in the peer- age are “not entitled to a summons to attend the coronation.” Ancient Order of Foresters. High Chief Ranger Boehm returned to this city September 27, after an absence of several weeks, during which time he has visited all the courts In the adjacent States. A new court called McKinley was insti- tuted at Verdi, Nev., with a good charter list last month. George A. Lewell is the chief ranger and O. F. Stackpole is the financial secretary. Court Star of the West gave a very pleasant social at home in its hall in the Foresters’ ‘building on the night of Sep- tember 27.

OCTOBER 6, 1901. Told in Elnte=MRooms. ORTHY MATRON MRS. LIZZIE TONNING- SEN and Worthy Pat- ron John Tonningsen presided at the meet- ing of California Chap- ter of the Order of the Eastern Star on the 2ist inst. for the first time since their return from Louisville, Ky., where they attended the conclave of the Knights Templar. Almost the entire membership was present, and there were also in the chapter rvom visitors from many parts of the State and from a num- ber of Eastern States. The officials named were accorded a most generous. welcome and would have been made the guests of honor at a banquet, but this was deferred on account of the chapter being in mourn- ing for the late President. During the evening two applicants for admission Into the chapter were elected, two petitions were received and the following named ten candidates were initiated by the of- ficers in a manner that surpassed any previous effort: J. R. and Mrs. Jenkel, E. D. and Mrs. Mendell, Gotlieb and Mrs. Witmer, Mrs. Lilian Gately, Misses Sophia and Josie Miller and R. H. Mec- Pherson. John Tonningsen, Emma F.'Lel- bold and Anna Boxton, appointed by the matron a committee on resolutions to the memory of the late President McKiniey, presented a series that were couched In the most feeling language. These were adopted by a rising vote and it was de- cided that the same should be spread on the minujes ‘andsthac anengrdssed (Gopx be forwarded to Mrs. Ida McKinley, who is a member of the order at her home in Canton. This chapter particularly feels the ‘natlon’s loss by reason of the tfact that during the visit of the late President to this city he manifested a deep interest in its welfare because his wife had been specially invited to attend one of its scs- sions. The chapter has decided to meet hereafter on the first and third Thursdays of each month. An appropriate finale to the session was the rendering on the lute by Brother Adelstein of ‘‘Nearer, My God, 10 Thee” and “Ave Maria,” of sacred se- lections by ‘the quartet and the singing of “‘Sweet Spirit, Hear My Prayer,” by Mrs. Ralph Hathorn. There was a large attendamce of mem- bers in the hall of Beman Chapter on the right of September 23 on the occasion of six candidates being initfated in a most acceptable manner by the officers. ~The work of Mrs. Schmail, the conductres: and of Mrs. Donoho, the associate cur ductress, was most favorably commented upon by visitors. Among the many who were present from the several chapters ere Grand Secretary Mrs, K. J. Willats, Past Grand Patron G. L. Darling, Pa: Grand Organist Mrs. Darling, and Mrs. H. M. Owens, who during the evening was presented a_beautiful rose jar in recogni- tion of her kindness in naving on a num- ber of occasions sung for the chapter dur- ing ceremonies. After the work of the evening there was an adjournment to the banquet hall, where a fine collation was served and there were addresses by mem- bers of the order. This chapter will have two more candidates to initiate at a future meeting. The many friends of Mrs. Maude Ter- williger, worthy matron of Golden Gate Chapter, will be pleased to learn that she is rapidly recovering from the effects of a severe operation she had to submit to about two weeks ago. On the last day of September thé hall of Mission Chapter was crowded with mem- bers of the order who assembled to enjoy the children’s party given by the chapter to the little ones of members. About fifty juveniles, each carrying an American flag, marched into the hall and were as- signed to a position of honor, after which there was a programme of varied num- bers by the juvenile talent, contributed by Mabel Orcway, Pearl Walker, M. L. Gardner, Hattie Jones, Edna.S. Mader, Kydia Herman, Harry Chritiansen, Myrtle Morgan, Alexander King, Helen McPhun, Connie Christsen, Margaret Haggerty and Wilford McPhun. After the last number the little ones were taken to the banquet- room, where they were treated to a bounteous collation. Then followed games and dancing. Mrs.. James Andrew Wil- son was the chairman of the committee of arrangements and@ Worthy Patron A. M. Cox master of ceremonies, San Francisco Chapter at its last held meeting initiated five strangers and re- ceived ten _applications. ~Among the visitors was Mrs. A. Wood, matron, and Mrs. Linea Lincoln Baehr, associate mat- ron, of King Solomon Chapter. H Harmony Chapter will give a reception and ball on the night of fhe 17th inst. in Golden Gate Hall. It is stated that King Solomon Chapter will have work in the initiatory degree on the night of the 16th inst. The Odd Fellows. Apollo Lodge, I. 0. O.

The affair was first class in every par- ticular and in keeping+ with the high standard of this lodge.

The minstrel entertainment that was given on the evening of the 28th of Sep- tember by Templar Lodge of the Rebek- ahs in Memorial Hall of the Odd Fel- lows’ building was attended by a large number of the members and their friends ready to assist a good cause, the enter- tainment being for the benefit of the hos- pital fund of the Orphans’ Asylum at Gil- roy.

Baker and Carlton Seeley as soloists, and Nellio Reckle, Maud Finger, Carrie Coffin, | Maud Holtzlander, Annle Clemo and Cora | Opsvig, chorus. The entertainment, one of the most pleasing ever given by the | lodge, was followed by dancing and will net a goodly sum to the fund. The affair was under the direction of Mrs. Geneva Ashworth, N. G.; Mrs. Bessle Monroe, V. G.; Mrs. Alma I. Jensen, Miss Tillie Stohr, Miss M. Holtzlander and Messrs. Smith, | Osthoft, Coffin and Cameron.
