Not all of the garlands of war are of laurel and palm; there are others of withered and bitter leaves which do not crown the victors or repose on the graves of those who have given their lives for their country. They are worn by the women who have inherited the legacy of sorrow and loneliness through the death of a som, They cling in their bereavement to anything which may keep fresh the memory of these dear ones. Their letters, portraits, gny- thing they have worn or owned are treasured as of priceless value and on such a day as the one appointed to honor the nation’s dead they seem to bring back something of the real presence of the heroes who To express these thoughts on canvas is the motive of Edgar S.

The right of the Auditor to refuse the salary demands of a municipal em- ploye presented for his approval by a person other thah the employe in whose name they are drawn is to be tested in the courts. Yesterday a suit for a writ of mandate compelling Au- ditor Baehr to audit the salary de- mands of Howard Vernon, Police Court stenographer, for the months of May, June, July and August of last year, each demand being for $200, was filed by C. Meyer, holder of the de- mands. The demands were assigned to Meyer by R. B. Aronsohn, the money lender, with whom they were hypothecated by Vernon. The case will be heard by Judge Sloss June 3, he having issued an alternative writ of mandate returnable before him on that date. Rudolph Barth, watchmaker and jeweler, 134 Sutter 5t Gupstaire).

ASTOUNDED News That Carrington Is to' Be 'Tried for Embez- zlement Causes Sensation |IGNORANT OF CHARGE | His Associates at Presidio Believe He Will Clear Himself of Any Offense News from Washingtén that Major Frank de L. Carrington was to be tried | by court martial for embezzlement | | caused a tremendous sensation in army | . Coupled with | the fact that General Bates, in com- | | mand of the division of the northwest, {had reported to the authorities at | Washington that Carrington was iss- | ing, the information only added t0 the | amazement of his brother officers. 1t is trué that Carrington was found i in St. Louis ghortly after General Bates | | had Informed the War Department that | !he had disappeared from view. “’here; { he had been or what he had been doing | was not made public from the sec- | ond report of General Bates, when he stated that the missing officer had turned up. | Major Carrington has any number of | friends in San Francisco, both in army and club circles, and they are all loth | to believe that he has committed any | wrong intentionally. | _From the telegraphic report from ‘Washington it appears that Carring- {ton is accused of having misappropri- | ated funds that had been sent to him | to pay for the necessary expenses of | getting his provisional battalion of | Philippine scouts in a condition to go to the St. Louis Exposition. No one questions the fact that the scouts were {in fine condition when they arrived here, and from their appearance it | could be inferred that the money had | been judiciously expended. | It is reported that while the funds in ihls possession were all properly spent, | he failed to render to the Government | | a statement with the necessary vouch- | ers attached. It is also reported that the War Department called upon him | | several times to render supplementary accounts, but for some reason he failed | to do this, so the Government declded to bring him to time and accordingly | ordered him to report to Manila and | | answer the charges in person. His friends here, both in army and | civilian circles, all feel positive that he | will be fully able to clear himself of | any accusations of dishonesty. He will | sail from this port for Manila on the | transport Sheridan, leaving here on | June 1. Major W. A. Thurston of the Twenty- ninth Infantry, Liebtenant W. P.

One of these sailors’ named | Storace Amedeo was arrested recently | in the house of a man named G. Rossi, | who is reputed to be an anarchist. | Shortly after the assassination of| President McKinley Rossi and another anarchist named Crispi were shad- | owed for se 1 weeks by United | | States secret service detectives. | | The arrest of Amedeo was at the request of the Italian consulate in this city. Judge de Haven made an order | yesterday that Amedeo should be con- fined in the County Jail to await the | | sailing of an Italian bark that is to| convey the _prisoner to his ship, the Liguria, which will be in the harbor | of Honolulu. Rossi and Crispi ap-| peared to be very unwilling to let Amedeo go back under Italian juris- diction and they employed an attor- ney to try to effect the prisoner's re- lease on habeas corpus. Judge de Haven, however, refused to issue the | writ and the prisoner will be returned to his ship. —————————— CHARLES PARISH PICNIC WILL GO TO MIRABEL PARK { | ST. Proceeds Are to Be Used for Con- stuction of New Church on Howard Street. ' St. Charles parish will give its pic- nic and hold its fourth annual reunion at Mirabel Park, Sonoma County, June 14. That there will be a good time those who have attended similar out- ings of the ish are well aware. | This year there is a greater incentive than ever to patronize the affair, as the proceeds of the picnic are to be used in the construction of the new church at the corner of Eighteenth and Howard streets. The question as to what disposition should be made of the money derived from the picnic was settled at a meeting held on Thursday in the schoolhouse. A number of prizes will be awarded to those who attend. This fact is ex- pected to increase the patronage of the’ outing. Tickets can be procured at the parochial residence, 390 Shot- well street, or from any member of the committee. b The following are members of the committee on arrangements: Frank Dougherty, chairman; John N. Quinn, secretary; Rev. Father Moran, treas- urer; George Lynch, Thomas Learned, Mrs. McAleer, Miss Monahan, Mrs. Lamburth, Miss O'Dwyer, D. A. Mec- Glorin, John E.
