The funeral services, were held at Masonic Temple -under the auspices of King Solomon’s Lodge No. 260, Free and Accepted Masons. They were exceeding- Iy impressive ‘and were/attended by a great throng. Long before the hour of the service P! and Montgomery streets were crowded with spectators.

The main hall of the temple was filled to overflowing. Officers and men who knew and honored George Birdsall were there to shed a tear over his bier. The Police Commissioners and Chief of Police Wittman occupied seats on the rostrum. The casket, covered with flowers, was placed in the center of the hall and on each side sat the family and relatives of the deceased. Worshipful Master William Filmer read the beautiful ritual for the dead and the members of King Solomon’s Lodge made the responses. The choir rendered songs appropriate to the occasion and Frank H. Gould -delivered the eulogy. In the course of his tribute to the late police captain, Mr. Gould said: PATRIOTIC CITIZEN. The late Captain George Birdsall was born in Sing Sing, N. Y., In 1844. In 1852, in com- pany with his parents, he came to the State of California. They.traveled across the con- tinent in an emigrant train with that. brave band of argol that has done so much to high character of thelr personality t State. He took up his home n that he loved .and has -lived -h ever since., When strife between the e i and South arose his patrigtism éxhibited itself in the organization and training 'of a com- in this city. = They known the Ellsworth Zouaves, many of whom still live.in this.city and who can testify to the high character of him ‘who then commanded them. Later he followed business vocations with the enefgy and zest that come ounger. men.. In-18i8 George Birdsall be- me a patrolman of the police department of San Francisco, and so excellent was his character, so high the degree of service he rendered to this city, that in two years lLe was advanced to the position of sergeant and occupled that hoporable station until 1895, when_he became a lieutenant of police. Seven years later—in 1802—he became caotain of police, which station he_ occupled with credit to the department and to, himself up to ihe time of his taking off. His character was the character of a high- class man. More than that he was tender in kis association with the weak and those who - were dependent upon him, manly and firm in bis assoclations with those with whom pany - of eoldfers were, as Deutscher Club Entertains. Members of the Deutsciner Club gave a reception and dance last evening at Gold- en Gate Hall, where 160 people were pleas- antly entertained.

Beckett at 6 Post street was | issued by Judge Hebbard yesterday. Beckett sued for the injunction on the ground that Wittman in placing a police officer at his stand to take the names and addresses of his eustomers because he | suspected that pools on the races were sold there was injuring his business and acting without the authority of law. Juage Hebbard took the same view and in an opinion rendered by him yesterday sald: “Mere suspicion of the future commis- sion of crime is not sufficient to warrant such Interference with the natural rights and the official license of a private citi- zen by the police. I find no warrant therefor In either statute, ordinance or charter. Let the Injunction issue as prayed.” Beckett was twice arrested on a charge of selling pools and was acquitted each time.
