PRESIDES WITH DIGNITY. Reuben H. Lloyd was master of cere- monies. He presided with the dignity and courteous grace for which he is so widely famed. His remarks, while con- cise, were always pertinent to the sub- | ject in question and brilliant. They were frequently punctuated with ap- plause by his hearers Following were the toasts and names of the speakers The ¥ rosident al of Scotland ; music, nse by Very Eminent ¢ Capada™: musie; re- nent Sir Henry W.

Early last evening the crowd began to gather in order to obtain the best seats and the choice positions on lawns. The warm weather per- miited the women to promenade with- out hats or wraps. By the time the band had begun playing the square was crowded and all available space on grass or benches was taken by the visitors, who stayed until the last number had been i played.

Bennett, Consul General at this port for Great Britain, yesterday visited Rear Admiral Good- rich on board the flagship New York. The navy regulations do not provide for the burning of powder in honor of Earls, but being accompanied by King Bdward’s official representative, the British monarch’s Templar proxy shared with Consul Bennett the regu- ! lation Consular salute, which the New | York's iackies touched off as the vis- itors stenped over the flagshin's gang- way and raised their hats to Old Glory. There was another salute when the Ear] and the Consul left the cruiser after a pleasant visit, during which they met many’ of the officers of the { Pacific squadron. THE PECORD CONCLAVE.

A pickpocket is no respecter of per- scns. Charles B. Holbrook, secretary of the San Francisco Society for- the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, has lcarned that fact to his cost. Yester- day he reported at police headquarters that while he was on a car on Tues- é day night three men crowded against him at Third and Market streets and jumped off, almost immediately disap- pearing in the crowd. Being armed with his badge of au- thority entitling him to arrest trans- gressors of the law, he never imagined that any crook would be bold enough to “touch” him, He discovered his mistake when he reached his home. His diamond scarfpin, valued at $150, was gone. Then it occurred to him that the three men who jostled against him on the car at Third and Market streets had stolen it. He gave the po- lice an accurate description of the pin and Captain Martin has instructed De- tectives Harper and Armstrong to keep a sharp lookout for it in any of the pawnshops. Detectives Thomas Gibson and Dick Bell arrested three men at the park yesterday during the Knights Templar drill and placed them on the detinue | book at the City Prison: Their names are Hugh Trainor, Clay Marco and An- thony Melody. The police claim that the three are suspicious charaeters. for bunko work. Detective Charles Brown of the Central station rounded up a half dozen men last night and booked them for vagrancy. The pris- oners are known to the police as “drunk rollers,” characters who live by rob- bing intoxicated persons on the dark streets in the Barbary Coast district. —_— Tobelmann Jury Impaneled.

But the ac-| cident of the sword had scored some big black marks against Malta Corps and the disadvantage was almost too‘ hig to leave a chance for first trophy.

BERNARD IS SNAPPY. | The crack St. Bernard Commandery Drill Corps came on almost at a quick- step. Precision and rapidity marked their every movement. “Snappy,” the crowd remarked. But it was soon perceptible that the St. Bernard Commandery was going through different evolutions than its two predecessors. Then the whisper went around that the St. Bernard corps had secured a special dispensa- tion to drill under its own tactics. They went through evolutions that they had practiced for years. Quickly, almost hurriedly, but with perfect precision and certainty of every move they did their work. The difference between the St. Ber- nard corps and that of Louisville was almost the same as that between the northern and the southern tempera- | ment, the one deliberate and graceful, | the other sharp and precise. By ac- clamation and by the judges’ decision the Southrons triumphed over the best of the North. Following are the names of the past stars who were made ‘“‘second best” | yesterday: Eminent Sir Frank C. Roundy. Commandant; Eminent Sir John W. Swatek, first lieutenant; | Sir .

Mil-wau-kee!” The Ivanhoe Templars were given the third award. METHOD OF SCORING. Following are the results, with the officlal scores: Louisville Command- ery, 779.54; St. Bernard, 771.14; Ivanhoe, 725.03; Malta, 655.82. The average was made on a basis of 3 points for every.movement, making a total of 810. The three army officers in charge simply computed impartially, according te their own estimates. Before the awards were announced the four competing commanderies marched around the field in battalion formation. Then there was anxiety among the Kentucky delegation. In the judges’ tent sat ‘the stern judges and they decreed that none should hear their deliberations. They emerged and quiétly but firmly re- fused to tell who had won. “This is - awful, the suspense,” re- marked one of the blue grass beau- ties. .Oh, if those Yankees win after| all our hoves and troubles!” 1 The competing corps swung round in battalion front. Sir Knight Rickton, chairman of the drill committee, step- ped to the front and center. In the midst of a dead silence he said: “The judges have given their decis- jon. I trust that all will be satisfied with it. Louisville wins.” The rebel vell started again and the entire assemblage took it up. At the commanderies the Kentucky girls started “My Old Kentucky Home” once more. The blue grass belles waited till their Sir Knights were dismissed and then—verily it is pleasant to be a mem- ber of a winning corps. The Southern girls know how to congratulate. CALIFORNIANS DRILL. ‘When the competing commanderies had been dismissed the drill corps of Sacramento went through some beauti- ful evolutions. They formed stars, squares, crosses and double crosses, never losing the rythmic cadence of their step. Many remarked that if hospitality | had permitted the Los Angeles Knights to enter the competition they would have stood a fine chance to win. Theirs 5 was purely an exhibition drill. Golden Gate Commandery's drill ‘corps turned out with the following ' members: Colonel W. Edwards, com- | mander; Major George Filmer, senior warden; Thomas Trebell, junior war- dem; Robert Ashe, Dr. P. F. Alden, W. Alexander, R. W. Coburn, Charles P. Davies, F. C. Davis, G. G. Frisbie, | Fred Gehret, C. W. Gould, Dr. A. C. Griffith, E. P. Halstead, J. D. Hanna, W. H. Healy, J. F. Kibbler, T. E.! Moore, H. D. Noble, Dr. Thomas O’Con- Perry, Ed! Stevens, C. H. Souda P. M. Thomas, O. H. Van Orden and | A. Woodside. * While the Golden Gate Sir Knights were drilling the California Command- ery's mounted corps dashed into the amphitheater. ~ The _splendid - black | horses were so anxious to show them- selves that their riders were mue[ to hold them back. A drill by this M Nr wound up m “programme. | the members of the committee. s The presentation was made under the auspices of the California Command- ery shortly after the last recall was sounded. Louisville Commandery wins a mag- nificent punch bowl, salver and cups. St. ‘Bernard wins the emblematic piece, “Fortress of the Golden Gate.” Ivanhoe wins the magnificent clock. one of the most valuable timepieces in thé world. Malta wins a beautiful loving cup. ACCIDENTS AT PARK. Considering the burning heat there were comparatively few who were harmed by it. Following is a list of accidents that occurred in the vicinity of the drill grounds: G. S.
