The installation was publie, soi | balloon used by M. Marconi, the inventor | thing rather unusual in Masonic circles. The ceremony was beautiful and impres- sive. It was watched with interest not only by those who had never before wit- nessed such an evént but by the mem- bers of the fraternity, to whom it is de- lightful, no matter how often repeated. The installing officer was Louis Alb;;‘t e Hil as marshal. Those who were in- ducted for the current Masonic term are: Frank Thomas Faircloth, worshipful master; Adolph Charles Bauer, senlor warden; Arthur Meyer, junior warden; John P. r, P. M., treasurer; Jullus Raphael Goldsmith, secretary; Henry Conrad Schaertzer, senfor deacon; Cyras Burr McCroskey, junior’ deacon; Louis G6od- day, P. M., chaplain; Frank Morgan Steers, marshal; ‘WilHam Lane Scott,. steward; Fred- erick Lawrence Wight, steward: Ludwig Ma- thias Hoefler, P. M., trustee: T. K. Wittich, organist; Willlam Henry Edmondson, tyler. The new worshipful master and senior and junior wardens are all members of California Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; of California Commandery, Knights Tem- plar, and of Islam Temple of the Anclent Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine. - The lodge was instituted in October, 1871, and now has a membership of 251 and is one of the most influential and prosperous in the fraternity. After the ceremony, during which the music incidental to the work of the ritual was furnished by the Knickerbocker Male Quartet and the Temple Quartet, as- sisted by Mrs. L. A. Larsen, cornetist; Miss Grace 1. Davis, soprano; Miss Marks, accompanist, and Bennett's orchestra, ex- Judge Robert Ferral, on behalf of the lodge, tendered the retiring master, Mr. Larsen, a token of its fraternal love and appreciation of his service in the shape of a past master’s gold and diamond set jewel. A case of sliver table service-was presented on behalf of the lodge to Mrs. Larsen. ‘After the presentations there were served to the vast audience icecream, cakes and light refreshments. The function was under the direction of Frank Morgan Steers, Louis A. Larsen, P. M.; Thomas L. Hill, P.

The Prisoners Are Released Pending an Appeal tothe | Supreme Court. —_— | SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Dec. 12.—San- | tlago Iglesias, president of the Federation -‘ of Workmen of Porto Rico, with nine companions, was tried in the District| Court at San Juan yesterday on the charge of conspiracy. To-day Iglesias was sentenced to two years and three months and elght days' imprisonment: Seven of his companions were sentenced to four months’ imprisonment, while two ! were acquitted on the charge of being the | founders of an illegal association and con- | spiracy in August, 100, to raise the price | of labor in Porto Rico. Iglesias, as the | founder of the conspiracy, gets the heawi- est sentence. The other men were mere- | Iy his associates in the crime. Under | Spanish law, which is still in force here, | persons convicted of a crime have to pay | the costs. The local Federation of the Workmen of Porto Rico, which is part | of the American Federation of Labor, | under the presidency of Samuel Gompers, | has been ordered dissolved, as it has peen | adjudged illegal because of this con-| spiracy. » | pJudgye Savage of the District Court dis- | sented as to the lllegaiity of the local Federation, although he agreed that lgie- slas was guilty of a conspiracy to raise the price of labor in August, 190, when the currency of Porto Rico was changed. At that time nearly all the merchants and employers here raised their prices from pesos to dollars, an advance of ¥ cents. | iglesias did the same, contending that he only raised wages in proportion to other | increases. This constitutes the conspir- a “Yhe case has been appealed to the Su- preme Court of Porto Rico, where it will probably be heard in a month. Pending this appeal Iglesias is at liberty. The mass meeting of the Federation of Labor called for next Sunday probably will be called off, as the plans of the fed- eration are temporarily deranged. Iglesias says politics influenced the decision against him, as the Judges belong to the local Republican party, while Iglesias is a Federalist. One of the acquitted men has turned Republican, it is said, since the time of the conspiracy. Sinco Iglesias has been here as the lo- cal organizer of the American Federation of Labor he has been continually at- tacked in circulars and threatened by cer- tain Republicans who oppose his plans. Last Tuesday night these Republicans fired several shots at the building of the federation. The police searched the rooms of these men for arms, but found noth- ing. Fhe men who fired these shots had not been arrested up to this morning. Iglesias petitioned Governor Hunt, citing repeat- ed assaults upon his men, and asking for protection. Iglesias said: “If the laws of Porto Rico are inadequate to punish these offenders, if I cannot continue my work of Americanizing Porto Rico labor- ers unmolested, please jnform me, so that I can return to the United States, aban- doning this country and my mission ere.” SENATE WILL RECEIVE GRAHAM’S NOMINATION President Roosevelt Soon to Forward the Name of the Successor to Gleaves.

Meanwhile “Mammy’’ Pleasant is living in a plain little house on Webster street, and while Stone and Davis are hard at work giving out “exclusive” stories as i0 | what they intend to do, the notorious old colored woman declines to recelve visi- tors unless they are introduced by ‘‘one of the firm.” “Mammy”’ Is Uncommunicative. Last evening a Call reporter was escort- ed to the home of “Mammy” Pleasant by Sam_ Davis, after the humorist had fin- ished his day’'s work with his assoclate Stone. D: had a key to the dingy flat at bster street, where the old colored The house was shrouded in darkne but Davis assured the re- porter that “Mammy” was at home. Up the dark stairs went Davis followed by the newspaper representative, and the home of the concealer of fragedies, com- edies and what not was entered. Davis marched into the haliway and banged at all the doors, but received no Then the humorist used up all hes to peek through keyholes to Mammy” was around. The doors ¢ locked and, final]ly, when Davis was hunt a young col- ew a door open, but the dim ndle she held failed to re- reabouts of “Mammy."” id Davis, “is Mammy in?" replied the girl, “step in here. be down in a moment.” Davis and the reporten entered the room and the colored girl put the candle on the table and turned the reflector full on the newspaper writer's face, so that it was impossible to see about the room. he colored girl left the room saying that “Mammy’’ would arrive in a few minutes. in order “to while away the time Davlis discussed the former sur- roundings of Mrs. Pleasant, comparing them to her present humble ones. . Quite a contrast this is,” said - Dayis, “but Mammy can accommodate herself to surroundings, so 1 suppose she does not mind. T have some of her pictures with me. I hope that Mammy 1 like them.” Negress Betrays Her Presence. While Davis and the reporter discussed the merits of the photographs there was a giggle in the far corner of the room, and there lay “Mammy” Pleasant on a lounge in the darkness. She had been in the room all the time and had listened to the discussion of her merits by Davis and the reporter. '3 Although “Mammy"’ Pleasant {s 87 years of age she has lost none of her old-time cunning. She was pleasant and quite talkative on all subjects except the threatened litigation. “I made my hit in life by keeping my mouth shut. I have attorneys who us- ually do a great deal of talking and very little work, she said, \oyhere dre your attorneys, Mrs. Pleas- ant? “I cannét say just where they are at woman ored girl th: light of a . the present moment; I have not called them up by telephone for over an hour.” *And their names?"” “I think you will find. them in the di- regory somewhere.

I am a happy woman to-night because I think that the machinery of the law has beea put in motion to break up the conspiracy that has been formed in this town to clean me out of my property betore I die.” Mammy Pleasant evidently thought she had sald enough about her own affairs; in reality she had sald nothing. Did any one ever get the East of you, Mammy Pleasant?” “Yes, I caught one fellow taking my chture while he was talking to me—I told im to put his right hand in his pocket and 1 saw that he kept it there and his eyes on me—but he got the picture, just the same.” ‘“‘How's that?" “He was left-handed and 1 was so in- terested in watching his right hand that I did not know what his left was doing.” With this statement the aged negress, who_for so long guarded the portals of the ““House of Mystery,” the home of the Bells, lapsed into her _characteristic silence, which seemed to better become the weirdness of her surroundings. e BULLET HOLE SHOWS HOW MURDER WAS DONE GRASS VALLEY, Dec. 12.—Interest conitinues to center in the Griffiths mys- tery.

A number: of withesses will 80 before the Grand Jury and before Lhe end of the week it is expected. that slarthng facts will come to light. ; Yesterday Charles Allen, Mrs. Jennie Keicher, Mrs. Benfield, Mrs. Townsend rs. Bigelow and the young' som of Charles Ailen were before . the Grand Jury. Tt is understood that facts not heretofore brought out deveioped at the proceedings, but what they are cannot be ascertained. One new and vital piece of evidence was discovered when a coat ana shirt worn by Griffiths when nrurdered were cleaned. 5 A builet-hole in the coat, below the left shoulder, showed where the fatal ball en- tered. The blackened cloth of the coat is still in an excellent state of preservaticu, and showed marks of powder burns, prov- ing that a weapon had teen pressed close to Griffiths’ side when the shot was fired. As there was no bullet hole in the coai sleeve the surgeons belleve with the of- ficers that the deceased had raised his left arm to ward off a blow or to grasp the muzzle of a gun when the shot was fired. p —_——— Nothing Bstter for Christmas Than a nicely framed Water-color Photo- graph, Pastel, Efching cr Steel Engraving.
