NO DISAGREEABLE WEATHER. All That Is Left Behind You When You Board the Ukiah Excur- sion Train. The early rafns have laid the dust; the | heat of the summer months is no longer | with us; the atmosphere is vigorating, so that there is no more de- lightful time of the year to visit the country.

All the theaters in town contributed of the best on their bills. The Musicians’ Union supplied the music free of charge and the volunteer services of an able | army of stage mechanics did much to make the benefit a success in keeping witk that of its predecessors. MRS, STANFORD -~ RETURNS HOME |Intends to Make Many Improvements in the University. After almost a%ear's absence in foreign lands Mrs. Jane L. Stanford has returned greatly improved in health and fllled with ideas for the expansion and upbuilding of the Stanford Univer- sity. It was Mrs. Stanford’s desire to fulfill the intention of the late Senator tanford to make the great educational | institution complete in every detall that | caused her to return at this time. | Mrs. Stanford on her arrival at Palo Alto will make an inspection of . the buildings which have been in course of construction during her absence. It is | her ardent desire to have the university 8o thorough in all its equipments that a | student wishing to become a doctor, law- yer or professor may complete his educa- | tion at Stanford. To effect this end the construction of necessary buildings will be commenced as expeditiously as the contracts can be let. In her aim to broaden the scope of the university Mrs. B anford will have the advice of Dr. Jor- an. During her travels Mrs. Stanford se- cured a large collection of curlos which she intends to place in the museum at the university. In the collection is a splen- did_representation of the antiquities of Egypt, Switzerland, Italy and the Holy Land. The specimens obtained in Egypt are especially precious and will greaily enhance the interest of the university museum. It will be a number of weeks before they will arrive from®Cairo. ot A GREET MRS. STANFORD. Hearty Welcome Is Given to the Uni- versity’s Benefactress. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct. 17.— More than 600 wildly enthusiastic students gathered in.Encina Hall to-night for the freshman football rally. After a half- hour spent in the big clubroom in prac- ticing the new songs and yells the col- legians filed out and marched four abreast to Mrs. Leland Stanford’s residence to extend to their benefactress a welcome home. Mrs. Stanford, although fatigued from her journey across the continent, appeared on the front veranda and greet- ed “her boys,” as she delights in calling them, in a fruly appreciative manner. She | said in part: “I am_ exceedingly glad to be home again, glad to see the progress in the work on the new buildings, but, more than all else, glad to receive this welcome from the young men of the university.” Continuing, Mrs. Stanford spoke feel- ingly of her interest in the memo: LINGOLN POST HOLD3 SERVIGES Honor Is Paid to Mem- ory of the Martyred - President. —— Grand Army Men Listen to Tributes to Their Beloved Comrade. Y N Lincoln Post No. 1, Grand Army of the Republic, held memorial services in honor of President McKinley last night in the post's hall in the Pioneer building. Mem- bers of the post, their wives and sons and daughters, and guests from George H. Thomas Post illled the hall to the doors, and the programme from the first number to the last was most impressive. Post Commander John C. Innes deliv- ered an introductory address, and Henry C. Dibble spoke eloquently of the mar- tyred President and comrade. The audi- ce joined in singing ‘“Nearer, My God, to Thee,” and the Rev. E. R. Dille deliv- ered an invocation. Mrs. E. Grace Buswell rendered a solo and Dr. James G. Crawford recited ‘“The Spirit of the Union,” a poem written by J. J. Wallace, an ex-Confederate and actor, and dedicated to Lincoln Post at the time of General Grant's visit during his tour of the world. M. J. Orr rendered a cornet solo, “The Vacant Chair.” Samuzl M. Shortridge delivered the eu- logy. He traced the public career of Wil- liam McKinley and paid eloquent tribute to his deeds and his character. In con- clusion he said: The name of McKinley will live as a wise statesman, a true patriot, a great man called to a great work, and_who died as a Christian, calmly, hopefully. Who shall say that a braver man ever lived than Willlam McKinley as he looked into the face of death? If there was much of helpfulness in his life, certain it is that in his death there was much to lift up the nation to higher things. Let us turn from our mourning bravely to the problems that confront us, for the dead sleeps in glory. Let us turn from our mourn- ing with hope and cheerfulness, for the dead sleeps in immortality. Miss Hussey and Mrs. R. L. Partington sang “Lead, Kindly Light” with Miss Mitchell as accompanist. Charles Blank gave a violin solo, “‘Regrets” and Arthur C. Lawrence sang ‘“Be Thou Faithful Unto Death.” The programme was con- cluded by the singing of ‘“‘America” by the audience and the sounding of taps by M. J. Orr. RUDDER OF FAMOUS BATTLESHIP FOR SALE At a meeting of the Park Commission- ers held yesterday. afternoon a notifica- tior. was received from the Secretary of the Navy to the effect that the rudder of the famous old battleship Hartford will soon be condemned and sold to the high- est bidder. It is the intention of the Com- missioners to enter a bid, and should they be successful in obtaining the historic relic they will have it mounted in Golden Gate Park. Porter Ashe, on behalf of the laborers in_the park, appeared before the Com- missioners and requested that_their sal- aries be increased from-$2 to-$§250 per day. The request was taken under advisement. The Merchants’ Association asked tha beard to grant sufficient ground in Union quare for the construction of an under- grourd public lavatory. The new public utility will cost $7000, and will be con- structed on the European plan. The Board of Supervisors is to be petitioned 1 appropriate the money for its construc- tion. A suggestion was made to the board that the flags of all nations be placed around Concert Valley, in front of the music stand. > A committee from the Point Lobos Im- provement. Club appeared before the board to solicit its influence with the Board of Supervisors to have Fulton street, from Stanyan street to First ave rue, improved. The matter was laid over for further consideration. —_—ee—— BOARD OF MANAGEMENT HOLDS ANNUAL BANQUET The third annual banquet of the Young Men’s Christian Association board of man- agement of San Francisco and Oakland and the California State committee was held last evening in the Maple room of the Palace Hotel. General O. O. Howard and Colonel Rawles, .commandant of the Presidio, were the guests of honor. After dinner a number of speeches were made, in which the work of the associa- tion was reviewed and plans for future development discussed. Irving M. Scott, who has always taken a great interest in the work of the association, spoke at con- siderable length and was listened to with interest. The banquet hall was crowded and it was a late hour before the guests dis- persed. RIS S — MARRIAGE CEREMONY PERFORMED IN PRISON John C. Peterson, a waiter, and Annie Frederickson, a domestic, were married in the City Prison yesterday by Justice of the Peace Long. Peterson, whoe lives in Monterey, had heen arrested on com- plaint.of {he woman, who sald he had de- ceived her under promise of marriage. After being lccked up for a short time Peterson agreed to marry Miss Freder- ickson, and Justice Long was at once summoned. The bride had provided her- | self with a marriage ring, and when the words making them man and wife were pronounced she slipped it on her finger. ‘When Judge Cabaniss was informed that the marriage ceremony was per formed he ordered Peterson's release. To day the charge against him will be ror- mally dismissed. ——————— Suffragists Will Meet. The California Woman Suffrage Asso- clation will commence its annual session to-day in Yosemite Hall, Native .Sons’ building. The following is the programme of the initial day; Morning session—Re- ports of officers, committees and county socjeties and auxiliary clubs. Afternoon session—Five-minute talks on practical work for clubs by Dr. Alida C. Avery, Mrs. A, L. Corbert and Mrs. Judge Camp- bell of San Francisco; a fifteen-minute ad- dress on “Suffrage as a Constitutional Right,” by Mrs. Willlamson, president of the Alameda County Political Equality Society, and an address on ‘“The New Wo;nan" by Mrs. B. Fay Mills of Oak- land. : —_————— Goldstone Is Acqultted. The case of Abe Goldstone, barber, 105 Fourth street, charged with assault to murder, was dismissed by Judge Mogan yesterday. On the night of August 3 a crowd gathered in front of Goldstone's shop and began to throw rocks, yelling, “Down with the Jews!" Goldstone fired into the crowd and a bullet struck Emil Beringer, who was passing, on the arm. The Judge in dismissing the case sald that ‘Beringer was simply a passerby and there could have been no intention to in- jure him, besides he considered that Gold- stene was Jjustified In firlng into the crowd. L e 2 g 2 church and her intention of having it fitted up_as nearly perfect as possible. She showed clearly her great affection for the students; several times she was com- pelled to aquit speaking while her emo- tions held contkol over her. The college men cheered Mrs. Stanford to the echo and joined repeatedly in the varsity yell given with all the strength of six hundred voices. The Glee and Man- dolin clubs and the band supplied music. One noticeable feature of the march to Mrs. Stanford’s residence was the show of reverence to the memory of the foun- der of the university, every man silently baring his head as he passed the Stanford tomb. From Mrs. Stanford’s home the students marched to the baseball dia- mond and passed the remainder of the evening in circling a monster bonfire with the serpentine dance, giving the college yells and hauling the freshmen football players around in the old cart so often used for that purpose B ADVERTISEMENTS.

IR MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 17.—The clos- ing day’s session of the American Bank- ers’ Association Convention was devoted to a continuation of the discussion on practical banking questions. P. C. Kauff- man of Tacoma, Wash., spoke on ‘“The Financial and Commercial Future of the Pacific Coast.”” He said: . It is admitted by all who give the subject the slightest Investigation that in the struggle for commercial supremacy the United States, by reason of her great resources, the fertility of ber s61l and the vast extent of her territory, is destined to take a_pre-eminent place. The twentieth century opens for the United Stites with its industrial machinery adjusted to the production of wealth on a scale of un- precedented magnitude. The nations of Europe and the world at large are constantly becoming Mmore and more depenedent upon us, not only for raw material but also for manufactured products, and it may be confidently asserted that because of our central position between the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards, because of our excellent transportation facilities, our va- ried and inexhaustible resources and the stead- ily increasing dependence of the world upon us for the necessities and even many of the lux- uries of life, the United States is destined to be the greatest commmercial power of the com- mercial age, the twentieth century. Our great transcontinental railroads are fully awake to the situatjon 2nd are enlarging their facilities to handle ‘the great commerce of the future in the construction of immense warchouses and docks and the establishment of great Steamship lines, operated in close connection and under their direct supervision. To obtain this pre-eminence the United States must enter this field of commercial activity through her Pacific coast. With Hawali the key to the commerce of the Pacific and the Philippines the gateway to the Orlent, both in our hands, fate or a kind providence has given us two most important and valuable alds for the attalnment of this glorious goal. The question of the wisdom of the policy of expansion has been settled forever, It is no longer even & debatable one, Our flag has been raised In the Philippines and, thank God, it is there to stay. It takes no prophet to state that if the people of the United States will but awaken to a full realization of the grandeur of their destiny and the greatness of their opportunities they will' settle down to a development of the commerce of the Orient that will cre many vears re-establish our mer- chant marine, cover the Pacific with our white- winged birds of commerce, establish on the Pacific Coast commerclal emporfums that will rival any in the world, and pour into our treasurles the riches of Golconda. The list of officers as reported by the nominations committee was elected as fol- lows: President, Ohio; Va. Mzron YVice president, Caldwell Hardy chairman of executive council, Bigelow, Milwaukee; treasurer, M. Reynolds, Chicago; new members _executive council—Ralph Van Vechten, Towa: J. J.

Fries, North Carolina; J. M. Donald, New York; P. C.- Kauffman, Washington; G. Mather, Cleveland, Ohio. The new executive council will elect the secretary, probably James R. Branch. President Trowbridge, on retiring, was | presented with a beautiful silver punch bowl by the members of the association, J. S. Davis of Georgia introduced the following resolution, which was referred to the executive council: ‘Whereas, The bankrupt act has had time to NEED MONEY FOR DELEGATES Congregational Council Takes Measures on Expenses. —_— PORTLAND, Me., Oct. 17.—The fact that 200 authorized delegates to the Na- tional Council of . Congregationalists failed to present their credentials prompt- ed the business committee to introduce a resolution at to-day’s session of the coun- cil providing for a committee to corre- spond with the cosferences of the various States to devise a plan whereby a part or the whole of the expenses of delegates may be met by-the conference. The reso- lution was adepted. A resolution favoring the appointment of a committee of seven to consider the plan of publishing a systematic and grad- ed work for Sunday schools was adopted. The question of whether a minister should refuse to officiate at the marriage of a person who has been divorced was brought up and briefly discussed and de- spite an attempt to indefinitely table it, it was referred to a special committee with instructions to report before the adjourn- ment of the council. The question of who shall receive and attend to applications of ministerial re- lief was settled by creating a special com- mittee for that duty. The afternoon ses- sion was devoted chiefly to papers. PRESIDENT FAVORS RECIPROCITY TREATIES ‘WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.—It is under- stood that President Roosevelt, following out the policy of the late President Mc- Kinley, will urge the ratification of the reciprocity treaties with France and the West Indian ard South American coun- tries, which failed of ratification in the Senate last year. John O. Kasson of Towa, who practical- 1y had charge of the negotiations of these treaties, had a conference with the Presi- dent to-day upon the subject. He says that all the treaties have been renewed except that with Trinidad, which that isl- and declined to renew upon the advice of Great Britain. The failure to renew this treaty is regarded by Kasson as unfortu- nate because of its bearing upon South American trade. Wholesale Druggists Elect Officers. OLD POINT COMFORT, Va., Oct. 17.— The National Wholesale Druggists’ As- sociation elected the following officers to- day and adjourned to meet next year at Monterey, Cal.: President, Willlam J. Walding, Toledo; first vice president, Thomas F. Meyers, St. Loufs; second vice president, W. O. Blanding, Providence, R. L.; third vice president, W. P. Redington, San Francisco; fourth vice president, W. A. Nelden, Salt Lake. ° . serve the purpose intended by Congress, to give relief to the honest, oppressed debtor, and Whereas, Its further operation will entail loss upon both the creditor and debtor class and the general public by reducing lines of credit, restricting business, thereby checking the won- derful development of the country promised through right conditions; therefore, be it Resolved, That this convention through the executive ‘council of the American Bankers' Association memorialize Congress to repeal the bankruptey law.
