The Third to Elect a Colonel and the First a Lieutenant- Colonel. The transfer of Company A of the First Regiment to the Third, in the reorganiza- tion of the National Guard, is not accepted with very good grace by the majority of the members of that company. On Friday night its regular monthly meeting was held at the First regimental armory on Market street, and the men who object to the change were lond in their protests. The Third Regiment, they said, did not have a very good name, and, worse still, the reputation of Company C, which the transferred company succeeds in natfle, was far from savory. To be known as Company "C" of the Third Regiment, was altogether too much agony for the proud National Guardsman to undertake to suffer, they thought. All sorts of motions were made, some to refuse to obey the. order of transference, others to disband and some to apply for transference to some other regiment, but, of course, none of these motions were put to a vote. Captain Robert A. Marshall expostulated with the men, and urged that they accept the situation with the best erace possible, and finally he asked all who would stay with him to stand up. About a score of the members stood up. First Sergeant Newbert acquiesces in the change. About seventy-five men answer the roll- call of this company. Many of them have served over seven years and can take ad- vantage of their exemption certificates, which one man last night slid they would do. Others somewhat wildly threatened to stand a court-martial rather than obey the order, but these threats are not taken seriously. Company A was originally known as the MacMahons, subsequently as the Mac- Mahon Grenadiers, and later as the Tigers. It was then an independent organization. About 1858 It went into the National Guard. Captain Marshall was the senior captain of the First Regiment and is drill- master of the police force. There is to be an election soon in the First for lieutenant-colonel. Major George R. Burdick succeeded Lieutenant-Colonel Hyman P. Bush when the latter was elected colonel, but resigned. Captain Irving B. Cook of Company B became major to succeed Major Burdick. Two candidates are in the lield for the lieutenant-colonelcy, namely, Major Charles Jansen and ex-Captain Tilden of Com- pany G. An election will also be necessary in Com- panv B for a captain to fill the place left vacant by Major Cook. First Lieutenant George Filmer is now acting captain. It is believed the Thiru Regiment will move from the Golden Gate avenue armory to the Market-street armory, companies B, I) and F of the First to make that possible by moving into the armory of the Na- tionals on Ellis street, where Companies C and G—the Nationals— are now. If this change of quarters is effected it will do much to reconcile Company A to its trans- fer, itis believed. The Third Regiment is to elect a colonel on Wednesday night. Lieutenant-Colonel J. C. O'Connor is said to have a clear field, though there has been some little talk of Major James F. Smith running against him. It was learned last night, however, that Major Smith would nominate Lieu- tenant-Colonel O'Connor and that the lal- ter's election would be unanimous. Lieutenant-Colonel O'Connor enlisted in the old "Montgomery Guard" in the latter part of the '70's. This company afterward became Company "A" of the Third, and subsequently Company "D." Guardsman O'Connor climbed up the ladder step by step as lieutenant, captain, major and lieu- tenant-colonel. He has been second in rank for about five years and wa3 major for three years. Company B of the Naval Battalion is no more. On Friday night itmet and drilled for the last time in the armory of the Sec- ond Regiment on Page and Gough streets, and then each man was told off to which- ever of the two remaining companies, viz., C and D, he desired to belong. Company C took twenty-three and Com- pany D thirty-four, the men who had served the longest time going to the latter. Lieutenant C. C. Dennis was detailed to the staff for special duty; Junior Grade Lieutenant G. C. Calden and Ensign C. F. Moody went to Company C and Ensign W. F. Burke to Company D. The petty offi- cers were assigned to the companies ac- cording to their rank. Company B had nearly $600 in its treas- ury, and on the night of the 17thinst.it will give a farewell banquet. TAMING FIERY STEEDS. Professor Gleason's Kncounter With Dixie, the Biting Stallion. An immense crowd gathered in Central Park yesterday afternoon on the occasion of the farewell appearance of Professor Oscar R. Gleason. The princinal attraction was the profes- sor's encounter with the biting stallion Dixie, belonging to the Arata Bros, of Napa, in a twenty-four foot ring. A fence about six feet high was erected in the center of the park, and Dixie was led into it. A few minutes the professor, armed with a whip, and a revolver loaded with blank cartridges, entered the ring. When Dixiegot a look at him he began to plunge around and the professor at- tacked him with the whip. Dixie at- tempted to strike the professor with his hind legs, but Gleason was as wary and agile as a cat and kept out of his way. , Whenever the stallion ran at him open- mouthed the professor fired a shot at him, which staggered him temporarily. Finally Dixie became convinced that he could not scare the professor, and quietly allowed him to pat him and place his hand in his mouth, to the delight of the spectators. Three other animals were made to feel that the professor was their master, but one of them, a little black horse, gave him considerable trouble. It was either a trick horse or a phenomenal kicker and plunger. A WOMAN IN THE PULPIT. Miss 11. M. Anderson Preaches on the Queen of Sheba. The pulpit of the Howard M. E. Church was occupied yesterday by Miss H. M. Anderson, an evangelist. The subject of the discourse at the morning service was "The Queen of Sheba." Miss Anderson drew a vivid picture of the Queen of Sheba meeting King Solomon. She stated that the Queen had^heard a preat deal about the wonders of the great King Solomon. The Queen of Sheba could hardly believe all that she heard concern- ing the wonders of this great man. It was hardly possible that a man could be so wise and so good as he. "It was, I suppose," said Miss Anderson, •'very hard for the Queen of Sheba to be- lieve the wondrous stories that bad reached her about Solomon. She decided to go to Solomon and search for truth. It is a pity that the world is -not as generous as the Queen of Sheba, and search as she did for the gveat truths." The subject of the evening service was "The Scarlet Line." Miss Anderson, assisted by a Miss Baker, willconduct a series of revival meetings at Antioch tnis week. Four Inquests for To-Morrow. Coroner Hawkins has a busy day before him to-morrow. He will hold inquests on the bodies of four persons who have died by their own hands. The cases aro Mrs. A. C. Seeley, who hanged herself Thursday at Howard and Sixth streets; Jeremiah Griflis, who jumped from a third-story window Friday at dSS Cali- fornia street; Oscar Johnsor, who shot him- self Thursday at 438 Elizabeth street, and Kate Morrissey, who poisoned herself with morphine Friday at 515 Buih street. HE ENDORSES THE CALL Rev. Dr. Hirst on the Method of Reporting Durrant's Trial. He Deplores the Relish In Many Homes for the Highly Spiced In News. Rev. A. C. Hirst, pastor of the Simpson Memorial Church, voiced publicly last evening his approval of the policy which The Call has adopted in reporting the Durrant case. The subject of his dis- course was the love that "thinketh no evil"and that "rejoiceth not in iniquity." "These words," said the preacher, "in- dicate the real genius of Christianity more plainly than itis indicated anywhere else. Divine love is the central force of all things. It furnishes the only way to uni- versal agreement with God and the only solution of the vexed problems which have so long perplexed the souls of men. And the ideal Christian heart is a fountain whence flows kindness and love. "God himself could not do anything with this world of nis except along the lines of parental love. There ib really no such thing as an abstract moral govern- ment, and mere justice would result in the annihilation of the human race. You fathers try to build a home on the line of absolute justice, and see what the result will be. And yet the home is the truest type of the world. "I have no patience with the man or woman who peeps or pries into the moral lapses and soul-diseases of his fellows. A scavenger has no accepted place in society, but for him I have more respect than for the social scavengers, who hunt out evil in their fellows simply from a taste for evil. "What would you think of a man who paid to have the main sewer of this City run uncovered before his home. Yet, worse than that is being done here every day. The great dailies what are they? How much of murder and rapine do they contain ? Yet the editors are not to blame. The reporters are not to blame one half as much as you who indorse this thing as the respectable and Christian peop'e who have a relish for that filth, and you do relish it. Do you suppose the papers would print it otherwise? No, these ed- itors know you better than you know your- selves. It is their business to knowyou, and they realize that this sort of thing would be impossible if there were not a relish for it in otherwise respectable and Christian homes. "If you should go into the editorial rooms of these papers and find posted over the door 'Thinketh no evil,' you would think the millenium at hand. But all honor to that paper which has already started out on tb'at line ! All honor to the editor of The Call for his editorial the other day on the line I have indicated, for which I personally called to thank him. Would that the other papers would adopt that policy,- for then indeed would the filth of our courtrooms not be displayed before the younsr of our land." THE PIONEER JEWELER. To-Day the Mortal Kemalns of Henry M. Lewis Will Be Laid to Best. The funeral oi Henry M. Lewis, the pioneer jeweler and watchmaker of San Franci&co, whose death was noticed in Sunday's issue of The Call, will take place this afternoon at 1 o'clock from Pioneer Hall. The interment will be in the Hills of Eternity Cemetery in San Mateo County, and it will be private. The death of Mr. Lewis, though not un- expected, was very sudden. He was suffer- ing from fatty degeneration of the heart. On Saturday he had rallied a little and was talking to his wife, when he called for his watch. It was handed to him, and after he ascertained the time of day he started to wind the watch, but before that operation was completed the color forsook his face, his hands dropped by his side and his head fell back on his pillow. Mr. Lewis came to this citv on the bark Matilda in company with Colonel A. W. von Schmidt, the well-known civil engi- neer, and others, in April, 1849. The only survivor of the passengers by that vessel is Colonel von Schmidt. Soon after reaching here Mr.Lewis, who was a practical Jeweler and watchmaker, started in business on the site of the store he occupied up to the time of his death. Like many of the other old pioneers, he suffered losses by the great fires in the early fifties, but he always re- established himself at the old stand and pointed with pride to his sign, "The Pio- neer Jeweler and Watchmaker." Finally he purchased the ground, upon which he built the brick house where he died. He had for a neighboring structure the large building on tne southeast corner of Clay and Kearny, in which, on the ground floor, was Key's Clothing Emporium, then the most "famous clothing-house in the city. On the upper floor was Ford's daguerrean gallery. This was before the days of the ambrotype and of the photo- graph. When Mr. Lewis started inbusiness the charge was $10 for cleaning a watch and a like amount for replacing a broken main- spring—if there was one in his stock to fit. A watch crystal cost $1. Then in the jewelry line the only things in demand were those that were attractive. The furore in the early days was what was known as the specimen pin for men and brooches for women. Fantastic pieces of pure native gold were mounted as scarf- pins, while smaller pieces were joined to- § ether and worked into brooches. Every- ody had one or more of these, and every- body sent one or more East or to Europe to relatives and friends. In making these Mr. Lewis realized a great deal of money, for the charges were high, though the material was plentiful. Mr. Lewis was al- ways a business man, and never moved from the place in which be first located. Besides his widow and daughter he leaves a brother, who has been in mercantile business for many years. AROUND THE WATER FRONT William Martin, the Ferry Coffee Man, and the South- ern Pacific. SURFBOATS FOE THE SOUTH. The British Ship Lyderhorn Now the Lone Vessel at Anchor In the Bay. "William Martin, who keeps the small restaurant in the waiting-room of the ferry landing at the foot of Market street, has been bearing a double burden ever since he located with stove and frying pan in that out-of-the-way corner. He has been dealing out coffee ana doughnuts to the public and defending his cooking im- plements against the Southern Pacific Railroad Company. Of course William would have been ground to powder long ago if the Board of Harbor Commissioners had not reared itself between him and destruction. When he applied for the privilege of conducting a stand he found the great corporation clamoring for the refusal of his petition on the ground that it wanted the space and that the stand would interfere with its own eating places on the ferry steamers. Sut the State of California evidently thought that the Southern Pacific Com- pany, had plenty of room for all its pur- poses, and legitimate restaurant competi- tion on shore need not be killed in the in- terest of business afloat. Ho Martin agreed to serve the ferry travel at reasonable rates, and he was permitted at his own expense to lit up his cookery. But Mr. Huntineton never forgave him. and has resented his invasion. Therailroad people have refrained from patronizing his lunch counter, and have in different ways made ttfings interesting for him. They charged him $2 a month for water, which he is obliged to carry from the end of the wharf to his kitchen. When he concluded to get water else- where at a cheaper rate, they refused to let him go down on their dock to empty his slops in the bay. That forced him back to the Southern Pacific faucet. He cannot get a lower rate though he keeps a free drinking place for the benefit of the people who patronize the ferry-boats. Martin one day went down on the con- crete wall to see a Commissioner, when one of tbe gatekeepers ordered him off the State property, saying he evidently wanted to take something. Martin's last-work in the service of the public was to cet an empty room in the building fitted up b} T the Harbor Commis- sioners for the convenience of ladies occu- pying the waiting-room, he agreeing to take care of the place. The railroad em- ployes objected, but again the State offi- cials stood by the bold restaurant man, and although the wharf superintendent of tae company vowed that he will have that room locked up in two weeks, their patrons are enjoying the accommodation wrung from him. The British steamer Bawnmore, now loading cargo for Portland, will take on her great wide upper deck a tugboat and two large surf-lighters to be used on the Central American coast. One lone vessel, the Lyderhorn. occu- pied the bay yesterdav, and not another anchor was down. Such is the demand for all kinds of craft that each new arrival is hauled into dock immediately for dis- charge. AMERICAN PATRIOTISM An Address by Rev. Donald M. Ross at Metropolitan Hall. REGARD FOR THE OLD FLAG. The Rev. Mr. Dennett Talks About the Necessity of Action in Politics. The 1425 seats in Metropolitan Hall were filled yesterdav afternoon and several hun- dred people who were unable to obtain seats stood in the side aisles. The audi- ence, composed about equally of men and women, had assembled to listen to the exercises given under the auspices of the Good Citizenship Committee, and particu- larly to the address by Rev. Donald M. Ross, pastor of the Lebanon Presbyterian Church on "Rome's Hand in the People's Pocket." The speakers' stand was decorated with the National emblem, and on the platform a Jarge number of chairs were occupied by persons prominent in the A. P. A. and members of the Temple Choral Society. The meeting was called to order by H. W. Quitzow shortly after 3 o'clock, and he an- uounced the singing by the choral society of " Marching Through Georgia." This was followed by a prayer by the Rev. E. P. Dennett of the Potrero M. E. Church, whose appeal to the Almighty was for strength and power in aid of the move- ment now being made t which he described as not only for the Nation's aggrandize- ment, but for the welfare of the whole human family. "The Battle Hymn of the Remiblic," was sung by the "choral society, the audi- ence joining in the chorus. The Rev. C. A. Rabing of the United Evangelical Church, made a brief address on the American fiag and patrioti§m. He said that the (lag was abused when it was displayed in front of and over ginmills and low dives. "The flag is honored," he said, "when it floats over the school-houses of the coun- try, and itis never disgraced by those who enter and leave such houses." He con- cluded by saying that the Rev. Mr. Ross would talk of "Rome With Its Hands in Our Pockets," and that the meaning of this was the public treasury. During an organ voluntary by R. W. Lucy a collection was taken up. This was followed by the rendition of "The Soldier Bold," a song arranged to the airs of Sousa's popular marches by J. W. Mc- Kenzie Jr. It was sung by the Choral Society and was so well rendered that it had to be repeated. The Rev. Mr. Ross, a tall man of pleas- ing appearance, who speaks with a slight Scotch accent, well and forcibly, then addressed the meeting. He declared in the outset that his address would not be against the Catholic religion but against the interference of the Catholic church in American politics, but before entering upon his main discourse he took occasion to charge that the Catholic church, actu- ated by mercenary motives, claimed powers which he said it did not possess. He detailed at length that the railroad companies discriminates in favor of Sisters of Charity as against women of the Salva- tion Army, and allowed them to ride free, but compelled the Salvationists to pay ; that employes in the departments at Washing- ton were forced to pay a portion of their earnings to the Catholic Church, and that more Catholics than Protestants were em- ployed in the departments at Washington, holding that statistics showed that If the proportion was reversed it would be about right, as the census statistics showed that there were not more than 7,000,000 Catholics in the United States. He charged that in New York, the Catholic church had ac- quired property valued at $3,500,000 with- out cost and then had been paid for per- mission to cut a street through a portion of that property. He read a long list to show that millions had been paid by the State of New York for the maintenance of private institutions. He said that the fight of the A. P. A. was not with the religion of the Catholic or any church, and that if the Roman Cath- olic Church would draw out of politics and keep its hands out of the public treasury he would withdraw from the A. P. A. He disputed the etatement recently made that one-half of the women of San Franciseo were Catholics. Speaking of one of the departments at Washington, he said: "There are eleven clerks in this department, eight of whom are Catholics and three are Protestants. If it were the other way it would be a just proportion. The blame cannot be laid altogether to the Catholics, but to the way in which Protestants can be bought and influenced. We must put down such prac- tices. "I am an American to-day. I belong to No. 106, A. P. A., and I have been an A. P. A. one year, but I am not such on sec- tarian grounds, but because our organiza- tion is the only one that can keep Catholic hands out of the politics of the country. All that we want is that the Roman Catho- lic Church remain where itbelongs." He said the reason he drew attention to the figures he quoted was that it was time the people of the United States knew what was being done with their money and asfced : "Dare we squeal when we are be- ing trodden upon, or must we submit to being crushed by the hierarchy? I, for one, will not submit quietly." He again referred to frauds in Chicago, aud said that very soon the frauds in San Francisco would be brought up before our Grand Jury. "God," he said, "has a destiny for this Nation— to make it the advanced country of the world, and any man or organization that would stand iii the way of this ad- vancement would be worse than insane. When this country had but 5,000,000 people it moved against one of the strongest nations of the world and it moved on to victory and it will do so again. As Glad- stone said, this Nation is going to be the nation of nations; itis to be the beacon by which other nations will be guided. Un- less the people stand steadfast for the country and the flag they may find them- selves trampled under foot. One thing I reeret is that I do not hear the people sing the National anthem. 'In my country (Canada), when I was there, there never was a meeting at the close of which the people did not sing 'God Save the Queen. Here at the close of a meeting the people rush pellmell to get away. They ought to remain and sing 'America.' Yes, until the last word is eung." The reverend gentleman concluded by saving that a great American movement was going on from New York to Vicksburg and from Atlanta to the sea, and that any- thing that stood in the way would be so trampled that it would never feel the rear guard. The Rev. Mr. Dennett in an impressive speech said that as the State had an insti- tution for the detention of juvenile delin- quents, the money of the taxpayers should not be paid for the support of delinquents at the Magdalen Asylum. He also urged all Americans to commence now and take a hana in politics, so that the conventions would not place before the voters the same kind of tickets that had been presented in the past. He also spoke of his devotion to the American flag and to the country, and closed by saying: "Be ye faithful and true nnto death and victory is ours." Both speakers were frequently ap- plauded, particularly when their remarks were on the subject of patriotism. The ex- ercises cloeed with the singing of "America." THE. STEAMER BAWNMOKE SHIPPING A TUGBOAT AND BABGE3. [Sketched by a " Call " artist.] IN HONOR OF THE SAINTS. Special Services Held at St. Ignatius and St. Dominic's Churches. HIGH MASSES CELEBRATED. Father Netterville Tells of the Life and Work of the First Do- minican. The feasts of St. Ignatius and St. Dom- inie were celebrated yesterday in the two churches dedicated to them in thiß City. In St. Ignatius Church, on Hayes street, the founder of the Society of Jesus was honored with a solemn and magnificent commemoration. The main altar was made beautiful with roses and fine ferns, the altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary with white lilacs, white chrysanthemums, white sweet peas and ferns; St. Joseph's altar with pink chrysanthemums, pink Duchesse de Brabant roses and ferns; St. Aloysius altar, perle des jardins roses, La France roses and ferns ; Sacred Heart altar, pink and white lilies, ferns and cocoa palms. Solemn high mass was celebrated at 10:30 o'clock, when the church waß densely crowded. Father Calzia, S.J., was cele- brant, and Rev. Mr. Butler, S.J., master of ceremonies. The male choir of 100 voices of St. Ignatius Church rendered the mass by Fauconior-Battista, together with ''Ecce Panis" and "Jesu Dulcis Memoria" of Rigo, with organ and orchestral accom- paniment. In the evening at 7:30 o'clock there were solemn vespers and benedic- tion, at which Giorza's vespers, "Cor Jesu Flagrans," "Moriconi" and "Tantum Ergo," by Donizetti, were sung by the male choir. The soloists for both services were Messrs. Jones, Morrissey, Mills and Wood. Father Maher, 0.P., preached a sermon enlogistic of the saint and his Jife's wbrk. The Dominican Fathers of St. Dominic's, corner of Bush and Steiner streets, com- memorated the birth of their patron saint with fitting ceremonies. The life and works of this good man, his arduous labors in the cause of religion, and his many personal sacrifices during a Jong period of devout and faithful service were reviewed by Father Nettervillc in an eloquent sermon delivered to a large congregation. The church was beautifully decorated with palms, ferns and evergreen wreaths, while banks of flowers lay in great profusion about the altar rail. The services opened at 10 :30 a. m. with a solemn high mass, the celebrant being Father Harrington. He was assisted by Father Dyson as deacon and Father Brun as sub-deacon. Father Wyman of the Paulist3 and Father Hickey, S.J., officiated in the sanctuary. Instrumental music of a high order was furnished by volunteers from the church, and the chorus was made up of Miss Price, Miss Lawlor, Miss Gleason, Miss Shannon, Miss Hickey and others. Miss Emma Desmond was the organist. The sermon of Father Netterville, 0.P., dealing with the early life of the founder of the order, and the remarkable growth of the order itself, was full of interest and forcible illustration. The speaker told of the, founding of the Dominican Order in the thirteenth century by St. Dominic, and of its subsequent growth until the organization reached out over all the world. Though small in membership, when compared with certain other orders of the church, the Dominicans have always been distinguished for devout lives and scholarly attainments. Some of the most learned men in the church have come from this or- der, which has given to the world three Popes, a dozen Cardinals, as many Bishops and many canonized saints. Saint Dominic was nearly through with a long life of labor in the church when he conceived the idea of organizing this great order which bears his name. The work of his life, a labor for which he seems to have been specially designed by Providence, was the conversion of "the heretical Albigenses in Southern France and North- ern Italy. For seventeen years, often at the peril of his life and at all times sur- rounded by the menace of dire poverty, he taught the the truths of Christianity to these benighted people, never ceasing from the task laid out"for himself in early life until the last traces of heresy had disap- peared. Then he retired to the monastery of St. Augustine and there consummated his plans for the order. THE THEATERS. Attractions Offered at the Playhouses This Evening. The attraction at the Baldwin this even- ing will be "Too Much Johnson," written by William Gillette. It is a comedy of many funny situations, and the endeavors of the parties to set themselves right with those they come in contact with are very amusing. To-night is the first of the farewell week of the Frawley Company at the Columbia Theater. The play selected is "All the Comforts of Home." This will also be souvenir night, and every lady attending the performance will be presented with a group photograph of the company. "By Order of the Czar" will be presented at the Morosco Grand Opera-house to- night. It is a highly sensational play that is made v ery attractive by the fine stage setting in addition to the striking dialogue and action. This is its first production in this City. At the Tivoli Opera-house "Martha" will be presented, on which occasion George Broderick, a basso, will make his first ap- pearance. He will be supported by Alice Carle, who willappear in the character of Nancy, and by Laura Millard and Alice Nielson, who are to alternate as Harriet. There are many novelties in store for the patrons of the Orpheum to-night. The management has secured a number of new artists, among them Mons. Cuibal, a sleight-of-hand performer; the Metro- politan three, who will appear in a new vocal comedy jalso a number of others. That popular aggregation of mirth and music, Hoyt's "A Black Sheep," which proved such an attraction in this City, will be presented at the Macdonough Theater in Oakland to-night and on Tuesday and Wednesday night by the company that gave it here. \u2666 \u2666 BODY POUND ON THE SHORE. A Question Whether Death Was Acci- dental or a Suicide. An unknown man about 35 years of age was found dead on the beach, south of the tunnel of the Cliff House and Ferries steamcar line, at 2:30 o'clock yesterday. Whether the man's death was accidental or a |case of suicide is a matter of con- jecture with the officers in the Coroner's office. A. L. Shell of 5034 Third street and L. W. Clark of 612 Buchanan street were walking along the shore looking for a good place to fish when they discovered the body lying face down on a little strip of beach at the foot of the hign cliffs. The shore at that place is rough and broken and sharp rocks extend from the cliff far into the water. The men hastened to town and informed the Coroner. It was impossible to get within half a mile of the corpse with the Morgue wagon. Deputy O'Brien, with the assistance of five men, worked for several hours drag- ging the body up the face of the high cliff. An examination of the body showed that the mau was about 35 years old. He had blue eyes, a short brown mustache, black hair, thin on top of the head. The man was dressed in a neat black suit of clothes, white shirt and white underwear. Strange to say his shoes and stockings wore no- where to be found. On the man's head were half a dozen deap cuts, and there were two others on the temples. These were probably caused by the body being washed against the rocks. Tne palms of the man's hands are so soft that it is evident he was not a laborer. The fact that his shoes were removed gives rise to the belief that he was wading and was knocked down ,by a breaker and killed before he could recover himself. The only property in his possession was two nickels. 7 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, AUGUST 5, 1895. MONDAY. . AUGUST 6, 1595 AMUSEMENTS. .Baldwin: Theateb.— -Too Much Johnson."

INIHE NATIONAL GUARD.Company A of the First Does

Not Take Kindly to ItsChange.

The Third to Elect a Colonel andthe First a Lieutenant-

Colonel.

The transfer of Company A of the FirstRegiment to the Third, in the reorganiza-tion of the National Guard, is not acceptedwith very good grace by the majority ofthe members of that company.

On Friday night its regular monthlymeeting was held at the First regimentalarmory on Market street, and the menwho object to the change were lond intheir protests. The Third Regiment, theysaid, did not have a very good name, and,worse still, the reputation of Company C,which the transferred company succeedsin natfle, was far from savory. To beknown as Company "C" of the ThirdRegiment, was altogether too much agonyfor the proud National Guardsman toundertake to suffer, they thought.

Allsorts of motions were made, some torefuse to obey the. order of transference,others to disband and some to apply fortransference to some other regiment, but,of course, none of these motions were putto a vote. Captain Robert A. Marshallexpostulated with the men, and urged thatthey accept the situation with the besterace possible, and finally he asked allwho would stay with him to stand up.About a score of the members stood up.First Sergeant Newbert acquiesces in thechange.

About seventy-five men answer the roll-call of this company. Many of them haveserved over seven years and can take ad-vantage of their exemption certificates,

which one man last night slid they woulddo. Others somewhat wildly threatenedto stand a court-martial rather thanobey the order, but these threats are nottaken seriously.

Company A was originally known as theMacMahons, subsequently as the Mac-Mahon Grenadiers, and later as the Tigers.Itwas then an independent organization.About 1858 It went into the NationalGuard. Captain Marshall was the seniorcaptain of the First Regiment and is drill-master of the police force.

There is to be an election soon in theFirst forlieutenant-colonel. MajorGeorgeR. Burdick succeeded Lieutenant-ColonelHyman P. Bush when the latter waselected colonel, but resigned. CaptainIrving B. Cook of Company B becamemajor to succeed Major Burdick.

Two candidates are in the lield for thelieutenant-colonelcy, namely, MajorCharlesJansen and ex-Captain Tilden of Com-pany G.

An election willalso be necessary inCom-panv B for a captain to fillthe place leftvacant by Major Cook. First LieutenantGeorge Filmer is now acting captain.Itis believed the Thiru Regiment will

move from the Golden Gate avenue armoryto the Market-street armory, companies B,I)and F of the First to make that possibleby moving into the armory of the Na-tionals on Ellis street, where Companies Cand G—the Nationals— are now. If thischange of quarters is effected it willdomuch to reconcile Company A to its trans-fer, itis believed.

The Third Regiment is to elect a colonelon Wednesday night. Lieutenant-ColonelJ. C. O'Connor is said to have a clear field,though there has been some little talk ofMajor James F. Smith running againsthim. Itwas learned last night, however,

that Major Smith would nominate Lieu-tenant-Colonel O'Connor and that the lal-ter's election would be unanimous.

Lieutenant-Colonel O'Connor enlisted inthe old "Montgomery Guard" in the latterpart of the '70's. This company afterwardbecame Company "A" of the Third, andsubsequently Company "D." GuardsmanO'Connor climbed up the ladder step bystep as lieutenant, captain, major and lieu-tenant-colonel. He has been second inrank for about five years and wa3 majorfor three years.

Company Bof the Naval Battalion is nomore. On Friday night itmet and drilledfor the last time in the armory of the Sec-ond Regiment on Page and Gough streets,and then each man was told off to which-ever of the two remaining companies, viz.,C and D, he desired to belong.

Company C took twenty-three and Com-pany D thirty-four, the men who hadserved the longest time going to the latter.

Lieutenant C. C. Dennis was detailed tothe staff for special duty; Junior GradeLieutenant G. C. Calden and Ensign C. F.Moody went to Company C and Ensign W.F. Burke to Company D. The petty offi-cers were assigned to the companies ac-cording to their rank.

Company B had nearly $600 in its treas-ury,and on the night of the 17thinst.itwillgive a farewell banquet.

TAMING FIERY STEEDS.Professor Gleason's Kncounter With

Dixie, the Biting Stallion.

An immense crowd gathered in CentralPark yesterday afternoon on the occasionof the farewell appearance of ProfessorOscar R. Gleason.

The princinal attraction was the profes-sor's encounter with the biting stallionDixie, belonging to the Arata Bros, ofNapa, in a twenty-four foot ring. A fenceabout six feet high was erected in thecenter of the park, and Dixie was led intoit. A few minutes the professor,armed witha whip, and a revolver loadedwith blank cartridges, entered the ring.When Dixiegot a look at him he beganto plunge around and the professor at-tacked him with the whip. Dixie at-tempted to strike the professor with hishind legs, but Gleason was as wary andagile as a cat and kept out of his way.,Whenever the stallion ran at him open-mouthed the professor fired a shot at him,which staggered him temporarily. FinallyDixiebecame convinced that he could notscare the professor, and quietly allowedhim to pat him and place his hand in hismouth, to the delight of the spectators.

Three other animals were made to feelthat the professor was their master, butone of them, a little black horse, gave himconsiderable trouble. Itwas either a trickhorse or a phenomenal kicker and plunger.

A WOMAN IN THE PULPIT.Miss 11. M. Anderson Preaches on the

Queen of Sheba.The pulpit of the Howard M.E. Church

was occupied yesterday by Miss H. M.Anderson, an evangelist. The subject ofthe discourse at the morning service was"The Queen of Sheba."

Miss Anderson drew a vivid picture ofthe Queen of Sheba meeting King Solomon.She stated that the Queen had^heard apreat deal about the wonders of the greatKing Solomon. The Queen of Sheba couldhardly believe all that she heard concern-ing the wonders of this great man. Itwashardly possible that a man could be sowise and so good as he."Itwas, Isuppose," said Miss Anderson,

•'very hard for the Queen of Sheba to be-lieve the wondrous stories that bad reachedher about Solomon. She decided to go toSolomon and search for truth. Itis a pitythat the world is -not as generous as theQueen of Sheba, and search as she did forthe gveat truths."

The subject of the evening service was"The Scarlet Line."

Miss Anderson, assisted by a Miss Baker,willconduct a series of revival meetings atAntioch tnis week.

Four Inquests for To-Morrow.Coroner Hawkins has a busy day before him

to-morrow. He will hold inquests on thebodies of four persons who have died by theirown hands. The cases aro Mrs. A.C. Seeley,who hanged herself Thursday at Howard andSixth streets; Jeremiah Griflis, who jumpedfroma third-story window Friday at dSS Cali-fornia street; Oscar Johnsor, who shot him-self Thursday at 438 Elizabeth street, andKate Morrissey, who poisoned herself withmorphine Friday at 515 Buih street.

HE ENDORSES THE CALLRev. Dr. Hirst on the Method

of Reporting Durrant'sTrial.

He Deplores the Relish In Many

Homes for the Highly Spiced

InNews.

Rev. A. C. Hirst, pastor of the SimpsonMemorial Church, voiced publicly lastevening his approval of the policy whichThe Call has adopted in reporting theDurrant case. The subject of his dis-course was the love that "thinketh noevil"and that "rejoiceth not in iniquity."

"These words," said the preacher, "in-dicate the real genius of Christianity moreplainly than itis indicated anywhere else.Divine love is the central force of allthings. Itfurnishes the only way to uni-versal agreement withGod and the onlysolution of the vexed problems which haveso long perplexed the souls of men. Andthe ideal Christian heart is a fountainwhence flows kindness and love.

"God himself could not do anythingwith this world of nis except along thelines of parental love. There ib really nosuch thing as an abstract moral govern-ment, and mere justice would result in theannihilation of the human race. Youfathers try to build a home on the line ofabsolute justice, and see what the resultwillbe. And yet the home is the truesttype of the world."Ihave no patience with the man or

woman who peeps orpries into the morallapses and soul-diseases of his fellows. Ascavenger has no accepted place in society,but for him Ihave more respect than forthe social scavengers, who hunt out evil intheir fellows simply from a taste for evil.

"What would you think of a man whopaid to have the main sewer of this Cityrun uncovered before his home. Yet,worse than that is being done here everyday. The great dailies

—what are they?

How much of murder and rapine do theycontain ? Yet the editors are not to blame.The reporters are not to blame one half asmuch as you who indorse this thing—

asthe respectable and Christian peop'e whohave a relish for that filth, and you dorelish it. Do you suppose the paperswould print it otherwise? No, these ed-itors know you better than youknow your-selves. Itis their business to knowyou,and they realize that this sort of thingwould be impossible if there were not arelish for it in otherwise respectable andChristian homes."If you should go into the editorial

rooms of these papers and find posted overthe door 'Thinketh no evil,' you wouldthink the millenium at hand. But allhonor to that paper which has alreadystarted out on tb'at line! Allhonor to theeditor of The Call for his editorial theother day on the lineIhave indicated, forwhich Ipersonally called to thank him.Would that the other papers would adoptthat policy,- for then indeed would the filthof our courtrooms not be displayed beforethe younsr of our land."

THE PIONEER JEWELER.To-Day the Mortal Kemalns of Henry

M.Lewis Will Be Laid toBest.

The funeral oi Henry M. Lewis, thepioneer jeweler and watchmaker of SanFranci&co, whose death was noticed inSunday's issue of The Call, will takeplace this afternoon at 1 o'clock fromPioneer Hall. The interment will be inthe Hills of Eternity Cemetery in SanMateo County, and itwillbe private.

The death of Mr.Lewis, though not un-expected, was very sudden. He was suffer-ing from fatty degeneration of the heart.On Saturday he had rallied a little andwas talking to his wife, when he called forhis watch. Itwas handed to him, andafter he ascertained the time of day hestarted to wind the watch, but before thatoperation was completed the color forsookhis face, his hands dropped by his side andhis head fellback on his pillow.

Mr. Lewis came to this citv on the barkMatilda in company with Colonel A. W.von Schmidt, the well-known civil engi-neer, and others, inApril,1849. The onlysurvivor of the passengers by that vessel isColonel vonSchmidt. Soon after reachinghere Mr.Lewis, who was a practical Jewelerand watchmaker, started in business onthe site of the store he occupied up to thetime of his death. Likemany of the otherold pioneers, he suffered losses by the greatfires in the early fifties, but he always re-established himself at the old stand andpointed with pride to his sign, "The Pio-neer Jeweler and Watchmaker." Finallyhe purchased the ground, upon which hebuilt the brick house where he died. Hehad for a neighboring structure the largebuilding on tne southeast corner of Clayand Kearny, in which, on the groundfloor, was Key's Clothing Emporium,then the most "famous clothing-house inthe city. On the upper floor was Ford'sdaguerrean gallery. This was before thedays of the ambrotype and of the photo-graph.

When Mr.Lewis started inbusiness thecharge was $10 for cleaning a watch and alike amount for replacing a broken main-spring—if there was one in his stock tofit. A watch crystal cost $1. Then in thejewelry line the only things in demandwere those that were attractive. Thefurore in the early days was whatwas known as the specimen pin for menand brooches for women. Fantastic piecesof pure native gold were mounted as scarf-pins, while smaller pieces were joined to-§ether and worked into brooches. Every-

ody had one or more of these, and every-body sent one or more East or to Europeto relatives and friends. Inmaking theseMr.Lewis realized a great deal of money,for the charges were high, though thematerial was plentiful. Mr. Lewis was al-ways a business man, and never movedfrom the place in which be firstlocated.Besides his widow and daughter he leavesa brother, who has been in mercantilebusiness for many years.

AROUNDTHEWATERFRONTWilliam Martin, the Ferry

Coffee Man, and the South-ern Pacific.

SURFBOATS FOE THE SOUTH.

The British Ship Lyderhorn Nowthe Lone Vessel at Anchor

In the Bay.

"William Martin, who keeps the smallrestaurant in the waiting-room of theferry landing at the foot of Market street,has been bearing a double burden eversince he located withstove and frying panin that out-of-the-way corner. He hasbeen dealing out coffee ana doughnuts tothe public and defending his cooking im-plements against the Southern PacificRailroad Company.

Of course William would have beenground to powder long ago if the Board ofHarbor Commissioners had not reareditself between him and destruction. Whenhe applied for the privilege of conducting

a stand he found the great corporationclamoring for the refusal of his petition onthe ground that it wanted the space andthat the stand would interfere with itsown eating places on the ferry steamers.

Sut the State of California evidentlythought that the Southern Pacific Com-pany, had plenty of room for all its pur-poses, and legitimate restaurant competi-tion on shore need not be killed in the in-terest of business afloat.

Ho Martin agreed to serve the ferry travelat reasonable rates, and he was permittedat his own expense to lit up his cookery.But Mr. Huntineton never forgave him.and has resented his invasion. Therailroadpeople have refrained from patronizing hislunch counter, and have in different waysmade ttfings interesting for him. Theycharged him $2 a month for water, whichhe is obliged to carry from the end of thewharf to his kitchen.

When he concluded to get water else-where at a cheaper rate, they refused to lethim go down on their dock to empty hisslops in the bay. That forced him back tothe Southern Pacific faucet. He cannotget a lower rate though he keeps a freedrinking place for the benefit of the peoplewho patronize the ferry-boats.

Martin one day went down on the con-crete wall to see a Commissioner, when oneof tbe gatekeepers ordered him off theState property, saying he evidently wantedto take something.

Martin's last-work in the service of thepublic was to cet an empty room in thebuilding fitted up b}T the Harbor Commis-sioners for the convenience of ladies occu-pying the waiting-room, he agreeing totake care of the place. The railroad em-ployes objected, but again the State offi-cials stood by the bold restaurant man, andalthough the wharf superintendent of taecompany vowed that he will have thatroom locked up in two weeks, their patronsare enjoying the accommodation wrungfrom him.

The British steamer Bawnmore, nowloading cargo for Portland, will take onher great wide upper deck a tugboat andtwo large surf-lighters to be used on theCentral American coast.

One lone vessel, the Lyderhorn. occu-pied the bay yesterdav, and not anotheranchor was down. Such is the demandfor all kinds of craft that each new arrivalis hauled into dock immediately for dis-charge.

in Politics.

The 1425 seats in Metropolitan Hall werefilled yesterdav afternoon and several hun-dred people who were unable to obtainseats stood in the side aisles. The audi-ence, composed about equally of men andwomen, had assembled to listen to theexercises given under the auspices of theGood Citizenship Committee, and particu-larly to the address by Rev. Donald M.Ross, pastor of the Lebanon PresbyterianChurch on "Rome's Hand in the People'sPocket."

The speakers' stand was decorated withthe National emblem, and on the platforma Jarge number of chairs were occupied by

persons prominent in the A. P. A. andmembers of the Temple Choral Society.The meeting was called to order by H. W.Quitzow shortly after 3 o'clock, and he an-uounced the singing by the choral societyof

"Marching Through Georgia." This

was followed by a prayer by the Rev. E. P.Dennett of the Potrero M. E. Church,whose appeal to the Almighty was forstrength and power in aid of the move-ment now being made t which he describedas not only for the Nation's aggrandize-ment, but for the welfare of the wholehuman family.

"The Battle Hymn of the Remiblic,"was sung by the "choral society, the audi-ence joining in the chorus.

The Rev. C. A. Rabing of the UnitedEvangelical Church, made a brief addresson the American fiag and patrioti§m. Hesaid that the (lag was abused when it wasdisplayed in front of and over ginmillsand low dives.

"The flag is honored," he said, "when itfloats over the school-houses of the coun-try, and itis never disgraced by those whoenter and leave such houses." He con-cluded by saying that the Rev. Mr.Rosswould talk of "Rome With Its Hands inOur Pockets," and that the meaning of thiswas the public treasury.

During an organ voluntary by R. W.Lucy a collection was taken up. This wasfollowed by the rendition of "The SoldierBold," a song arranged to the airs ofSousa's popular marches by J. W. Mc-Kenzie Jr. It was sung by the ChoralSociety and was so well rendered that ithad to be repeated.

The Rev. Mr.Ross, a tall man of pleas-ing appearance, who speaks with aslight Scotch accent, well and forcibly,then addressed the meeting. He declaredin the outset that his address would notbe against the Catholic religion but againstthe interference of the Catholic church inAmerican politics, but before enteringupon his main discourse he took occasionto charge that the Catholic church, actu-ated by mercenary motives, claimed powerswhich he said itdid not possess.

He detailed at length that the railroadcompanies discriminates in favor of Sistersof Charity as against women of the Salva-tion Army,and allowed them to ride free,but compelled the Salvationists to pay;thatemployes in the departments at Washing-ton were forced to pay a portion of theirearnings to the Catholic Church, and thatmore Catholics than Protestants were em-ployed in the departments at Washington,holding that statistics showed that Iftheproportion was reversed itwould be aboutright, as the census statistics showed thatthere were not more than 7,000,000 Catholicsin the United States. He charged that inNew York, the Catholic church had ac-quired property valued at $3,500,000 with-out cost and then had been paid for per-mission to cut a street through a portionof that property. He read a long list toshow that millions had been paid by theState of New York for the maintenance ofprivate institutions.

He said that the fight of the A. P. A. wasnot with the religion of the Catholic orany church, and that ifthe Roman Cath-olic Church would draw out of politics andkeep its hands out of the public treasuryhe would withdraw from the A. P. A. Hedisputed the etatement recently made thatone-half of the women of San Franciseowere Catholics.

Speaking of one of the departments atWashington, he said: "There are elevenclerks in this department, eight of whomare Catholics and three are Protestants. Ifit were the other way it would be a justproportion. The blame cannot be laidaltogether to the Catholics, but to the wayin which Protestants can be bought andinfluenced. We must put down such prac-tices."Iam an American to-day. Ibelong to

No. 106, A. P. A.,and Ihave been an A. P.A. one year, but Iam not such on sec-tarian grounds, but because our organiza-tion is the only one that can keep Catholichands out of the politics of the country.Allthat we want is that the Roman Catho-lic Church remain where itbelongs."

He said the reason he drew attention tothe figures he quoted was that it was timethe people of the United States knew whatwas being done with their money andasfced : "Dare we squeal when we are be-ing trodden upon, or must we submit tobeing crushed by the hierarchy? I,forone, willnot submit quietly."

He again referred to frauds inChicago,aud said that very soon the frauds in SanFrancisco would be brought up before ourGrand Jury.

"God," he said, "has a destiny for thisNation— to make itthe advanced country

of the world, and any man or organizationthat would stand iii the way of this ad-vancement would be worse than insane.When this country had but 5,000,000 peopleit moved against one of the strongestnations of the world and itmoved on tovictory and it will do so again. As Glad-stone said, this Nation is going to be thenation of nations; itis to be the beacon bywhich other nations willbe guided. Un-less the people stand steadfast for thecountry and the flag they may find them-selves trampled under foot. One thing Ireeret is that Ido not hear the people singthe National anthem.'In my country (Canada), when Iwas

there, there never was a meeting at theclose of which the people did not sing'God Save the Queen. Here at the closeof a meeting the people rush pellmell toget away. They ought to remain and sing'America.' Yes, until the last word iseung."

The reverend gentleman concluded bysaving that a great American movementwas going on from New York to Vicksburgand from Atlanta to the sea, and that any-thing that stood in the way would be sotrampled that it would never feel the rearguard.

The Rev. Mr.Dennett in an impressivespeech said that as the State had an insti-tution for the detention of juvenile delin-quents, the money of the taxpayers shouldnot be paid for the support of delinquentsat the Magdalen Asylum. He also urgedall Americans to commence now and takea hana inpolitics, so that the conventionswould not place before the voters the samekind of tickets that had been presented inthe past. He also spoke of his devotion tothe American flag and to the country, andclosed by saying: "Be ye faithful andtrue nnto death and victory is ours."

Both speakers were frequently ap-plauded, particularly when their remarkswere on the subject of patriotism. The ex-ercises cloeed with the singing of"America."

INHONOR OF THE SAINTS.Special Services Held at St.

Ignatius and St. Dominic'sChurches.

HIGH MASSES CELEBRATED.

Father Netterville Tells of the Lifeand Work of the First Do-

minican.

The feasts of St. Ignatius and St. Dom-inie were celebrated yesterday in the two

churches dedicated to them in thiß City.InSt. Ignatius Church, on Hayes street,

the founder of the Society of Jesus washonored with a solemn and magnificent

commemoration. The main altar wasmade beautiful with roses and fine ferns,

the altar of the Blessed Virgin Marywith white lilacs, white chrysanthemums,white sweet peas and ferns; St. Joseph'saltar with pink chrysanthemums, pinkDuchesse de Brabant roses and ferns; St.Aloysius altar, perle des jardins roses, LaFrance roses and ferns ;Sacred Heart altar,pink and white lilies, ferns and cocoapalms.

Solemn high mass was celebrated at 10:30o'clock, when the church waß denselycrowded. Father Calzia, S.J., was cele-brant, and Rev. Mr. Butler, S.J., masterof ceremonies. The male choir of100 voicesof St. Ignatius Church rendered the massby Fauconior-Battista, together with ''EccePanis" and "Jesu Dulcis Memoria" ofRigo, with organ and orchestral accom-paniment. In the evening at 7:30 o'clockthere were solemn vespers and benedic-tion, at which Giorza's vespers, "Cor JesuFlagrans," "Moriconi" and "TantumErgo," by Donizetti, were sung by themale choir. The soloists for both serviceswere Messrs. Jones, Morrissey, Mills andWood.

Father Maher, 0.P., preached a sermonenlogistic of the saint and his Jife's wbrk.

The Dominican Fathers of St. Dominic's,corner of Bush and Steiner streets, com-memorated the birth of their patron saintwith fittingceremonies. The lifeand worksof this good man, his arduous labors in thecause of religion, and his many personalsacrifices during a Jong period of devoutand faithful service were reviewed byFather Nettervillc in an eloquent sermondelivered to a large congregation. Thechurch was beautifully decorated withpalms, ferns and evergreen wreaths, whilebanks of flowers lay in great profusionabout the altar rail.

The services opened at 10:30 a. m. witha solemn high mass, the celebrant beingFather Harrington. He was assisted byFather Dyson as deacon and Father Brunas sub-deacon.

Father Wyman of the Paulist3 andFather Hickey, S.J., officiated in thesanctuary. Instrumental music of a highorder was furnished by volunteers fromthe church, and the chorus was made upof Miss Price, Miss Lawlor, Miss Gleason,Miss Shannon, Miss Hickey and others.Miss Emma Desmond was the organist.

The sermon of Father Netterville, 0.P.,dealing with the early life of the founderof the order, and the remarkable growth ofthe order itself, was full of interest andforcible illustration. The speaker told ofthe, founding of the Dominican Order inthe thirteenth century by St. Dominic,and of its subsequent growth until theorganization reached out over all the world.

Though small in membership, whencompared withcertain other orders of thechurch, the Dominicans have always beendistinguished fordevout lives and scholarlyattainments. Some of the most learnedmen in the church have come from this or-der, which has given to the world threePopes, a dozen Cardinals, as many Bishopsand many canonized saints.

Saint Dominic was nearly through witha long lifeof labor in the church when heconceived the idea of organizing this greatorder which bears his name. The work ofhis life,a labor for which he seems to havebeen specially designed by Providence,was the conversion of "the hereticalAlbigenses inSouthern France and North-ern Italy. For seventeen years, often atthe peril of his life and at all times sur-rounded by the menace of dire poverty, hetaught the the truths of Christianity tothese benighted people, never ceasing fromthe task laid out"for himself in early lifeuntil the last traces of heresy had disap-peared. Then he retired to the monasteryof St. Augustine and there consummatedhis plans for the order.

BODY POUND ON THE SHORE.A Question Whether Death Was Acci-

dental or a Suicide.An unknown man about 35 years of age

was found dead on the beach, south of thetunnel of the Cliff House and Ferriessteamcar line, at 2:30 o'clock yesterday.Whether the man's death was accidentalor a |case of suicide is a matter of con-jecture with the officers in the Coroner'soffice.

A. L.Shell of5034 Third street and L.W.Clark of 612 Buchanan street were walkingalong the shore looking for a good place tofish when they discovered the body lyingface down on a little strip of beach at thefoot of the hign cliffs. The shore at thatplace is rough and broken and sharp rocksextend from the cliff far into the water.The men hastened to town and informedthe Coroner. It was impossible to getwithinhalf a mile of the corpse with theMorgue wagon.

Deputy O'Brien, with the assistance offive men, worked for several hours drag-ging the body up the face of the high cliff.

An examination of the body showed thatthe mau was about 35 years old. He had

blue eyes, a short brown mustache, blackhair, thin on top of the head. The manwas dressed in a neat black suit of clothes,white shirt and white underwear. Strangeto say his shoes and stockings wore no-where to be found. On the man's headwere half a dozen deap cuts, and therewere two others on the temples. Thesewere probably caused by the body beingwashed against the rocks.

Tne palms of the man's hands are sosoft that it is evident he was not a laborer.

The fact that his shoes were removedgives rise to the belief that he was wadingand was knocked down ,by a breaker andkilled before he could recover himself.The only property in his possession wastwo nickels.
