From Washington . to Rodsevelt the great majority of Presidents have been members of the Masonic fraternity. -Only one, John Quincy , was avowedly anti-Masonic. He came to the Presidency during the days of the Morgan excite- ment, in the fore part of the last century, and he talked and wrote against the or- der with all his might for mary years His distinguished father, however, was an enthusiastic Mason and was buried with Masonic honors. Andrew Jackson was at one time grand master of the Grand Lodge of Tennessee. An informal poll was made of the two houses of Congress a few years ago by a Washington Mason and it was discovered that more than 87 per cent of ‘the members of the House were in the order and more than 80 per cent of the members of the Senate.—Ex- change. i —_———— ‘When a woman’s name appears as Mae it is an indication that she hsu I THE TUG DEFIANCE WAS AT OVCE 8!

J. Barrett Wants Almost Half of What Gems He Found in Car Are Worth Mre. A. H. Davis, who until her recent unéxpected marriage to Captain Davis of the British army was Miss Lena Dyke of San Francisco, yesterday recovered a satchel of jewelry, valued at about $1200, that she lost on Memorial day. On Tues- day last, while coming from Oakland, she dropped the satchel containing her val- uables in a rallroad car across the bay and did not realize the fact until she had reachéd this city, The following morning Mrs. Davis ad- vertised her ioss in the local papers and .on Thursday recelved a telephone mes- sage to the effect that the man at the other end of the wiré had found the val- uables. He refused, however, to deliver them until assured of a reward of $500, and finding that it was useless to argue with the fellow Mrs. Davis finally made an appointment for yesterday afternoon at the telephone office on Geary street, near Grant avenue. She promised to have the necessary $500 by that time. Immediately after hanging up the tele- phone Mrs. Davis hurried to police head- quarters, where she laid the matter be- fore Captain Burnett, who adviseéd her to keep the appointment. He then de- tailed Detective Bunner on the case, and the latter was on hand yesterday after- noon when Mrs. Davis and the stranger met at the telephone office. The man, who afterward gave the name of J. J. Barrett, told Mrs. Davis that he had found the satchel in the Oakland train, and insisted that he receive $500 for his honesty. ‘While the owner and finder were dis- cussing the question of remuneration Detective Bunner joined the couple and took Barrett to police headquarters. There the young man was informed that if he persisted in his demand for $70 he would be arrested, and suddenly real- izing that his position was a dangerous one Barrett withdrew his demand for a | reward and handed over the satchel. He was later given $0 by Mrs. Davis as a compensation for his trouble, and the woman and Barrett bade each other aweu seemingly in the best of spirits. — THE ANCIENT TOMBS OF RUSSIAN RULERS Czars Since Peter the Great's Time Buried Bemeath a Vast Cathedral. The uprisings in Russia, with the many desperate attempts on the lives of the royal family, have attracted attention to the remarkable tomb where Russia’s roy- alty is buried. Tourists who are accus- tomed to the magnjticent monuments that adorn the tombs of western rulers of an- cient and modern times wiil be amazed to find that nothing but a block of plain white marble marks the spot beneath which lies an Emperor or an Empress, a Grand Duke or a Grand Duchess of Russia. 3 The last resting place of the reigning house of Russia 1s in the Cathedral of Sts. Peter and Paul, within the precincts of the gloomy fortress of Sts. Peter and Paul, which commands the entrance to the Neva River and the city of St. Pe- tersburg. Indeed, those remains of the illustrious dead are not, as so many peo- ple suppose, contained in the blocks of marble in question, and the latter are therefope falsely described as sarcophagi, since they are not hollow, but a solid mass of stone. The imperial tomb is in each case in the floor beneath the marble block, and away down below the tombs that are beneath it are dark and terrible dungeons, against the outer walls of which beat the waters of the Neva, while against the inner walls many a prisoner has during the last 200 years and even within the last decade beaten out his brains in despair. All the sovereigns of Russia since Peter the Great, with the exception of | Peter 1I, as well as members of their families, lie buried here, the tomb of Peter the Great being near the south door. On the marble block.above the tomb of the Grand Duke Constantine, who was Czarevitch, but who was forced to yield his right to succession to his younger brother, Nicholas I, there lie the keys of the fortresses of Modlin and of Zamoscz. in Poland, which he captured. ‘War medals commemorating the Napol- eonic wars at the beginning of the cen- tury lie on the marble block over the last resting place of Emperor Alexander A number of silver and silver gilt wreaths are deposited on the tombs of present Czar, while the grave of Grand be adorned with fresh flowers. Great palm trees, lighted candles and jeweled icens countribute to illuminate the gloom of the place, while the walls. are covered with military trophies, standards, flags, Kkeys of captured fortresses and the battle axes taken from the Turks, the various tribes of Central Asia and from all those other nations with which Russia has waged war during the last three cen- turies. _————————— RUSSIANS PLAN TO RAISE LEVEL OF SEA OF AZOV It Is Proposed That Dam With Great Lock Be Built Across Kirtch Straits. A French engineer has advanced the suggestion of permitting the Atlantic Ocean, by means of a canal, to flow into the Sahara district and thereby change that desert country into a gar- den land. A great Russian engineer- ing Wpoject has not for its object the creation of a new sea, like that dream- ed of by the French, but to improve an old one. Their gea of Azov, lying back of the Crimea, is a body of water 220 miles in length by 80 in width, open- ing into the Black Sea. The Azov Sea would better serve the purposes of trade were it not so ex- tremely shallow. No ocean-going steamer can enter It Consequentlyy the Russian Government proposes to bring trade to the shores of the Azov by means of a dam bullt across the strait by which It communicates with the Black Sea, and to let the rivers emptying Into the shallow body of wa- ter fill it to a denth that shall make it navigable for large steamers. It s calculated that a heavy dam about two n::!l?-kll‘,“'m'"h a great lock cavable ng in ocean steam- ers, would_accomplish the desired re- sult.

X Montgomery of Santa Clara College, the inventor of the aeroplane, who has been charged by Thomas S. Baldwin with libel, called at the Sheriff's office this afternoon to surrender himself as soon as he learned he was wanted. He deposited $50 cash bail. To-day Sheriff Ross received a war- rant for Montgomery's arrest on a charge of criminal libel. The complaint was made before Police Judge Cabaniss of San Francisce. The complaint for libel is based on a statement made by Montgomery . that Baldwin in building the California Arrow pilfered his (Montgomery’s) ideas. Mont- gomery also accused Baldwin of tamper- ing with his aeroplanes when he was about to give an exhibition in this city. Professor Montgomery had little to say to-day in regard to the case. He said that he had not named Baldwin in mak- ing the accusation that the aeroplane had been tampered with. He said he had stated that he had been told that Baldwin had been seen on the gmunds the day of | the ascension here.
