Once more the electric railroad company
have stolen march. Frank Lester with
about 1000 men invaded Bryant street
at & o'clock last night and in a very short
time that street locked as II the worst kind
of cyclone had struck it.
Work was begun at Third street and Mr..
Lester told CALL reporter it was his in
tention to have the track laid to Eighth
street by daylight. A large number of
teams were employed hauling ties and rails
and distributing them along the roadway
while another team was employed in sup
plying the men with straps, bolts and
spikes.
The novelty of the scene attracted large
crowd of people who thronged the side
walk on both SIDES of the street A small
army of boys were employed holding the
lanterns which furnished the light by which
the men worked. AS fast as the cobble-
stones were torn up and thrown aside the
ties were laid and spaced and the iron-rals
placed in position and spiked down.
The men were divided into thirty gangs,
each in charge of foreman.
The large force Of laborers was well
handled and the work progressed rapidly.

WHAT HE SAID.
Rev. Mr.. Curtis Reply to a Newspapers
Insinuation.

Rev. Mr.. Curtis Reply to Newspapers
Insinuation.
1t was an infamous lie" said the Rev.
T. j. Curtis last night at the annual meet
ing of the Woodbridge Presbyterian
Church. The pastor alluded to an article
which appeared in a morning paper during
his recent tour around the world.
He explained that many base insinua-
lions had been made against him. the
worst of all being the allegation that the
Indebtedness of the church had increased
to such an extent during his term as pas
tor that he would not return to this city.
He did return in February, and the well
come reception he received at the hands of
the congregation showed that his effurts in
the past had been appreciated. 1t was
true that the Indebtedness had increased,
but this was accounted for by the fact that
sS641 had been expended in improvements
At the suggestion of II. B. ShOnatf the
pastor was given unanimous vote of
thanks for his energetic labors in the
cause of the church.
The report of James Graham, the Secre-
tary and Treasurer, showed that during the
year the receipts amounted to Sl1,037 OF,
which had all been expended except the
81 so remaining on hand. There is a
mortgage of $500 upon the church prop
erty, and the miscellaneous Indebtedness
Is about $1,000.
The following were elected q Board of
Trustees for the ensuing year: James
Davidson, James Graham, Edwin L.
Brooks, William G. Brsttcn and Alexander

The Richmond District.

The Point Lobos Improvement Club held
brief meeting last evening at Vorrath's
Hall. G. r. Fletcher presiding. The Exec
utive Committee reported that after an in
terview with Chief Crowley it was safe to
assume that the Richmond district would
not be forgotten in the new police assign
ments. The report further suggested that
a communication be addressed to the Park
Commissioners concerning the matter of
keeping the Richmond district in good con-
dition. 1t was decided to petition the Su-
pervisors in fhe matter of grading Point
Lobos avenue, from Twelfth to Twenty
fourth, and the Secretary was instructed TO
notify j. }. Haley of the Southern Pacific
Company that he could proceed with the
new cable line, as the blocks between First

ferns and white spired Japanese and by
bucch of feather palm leaves, tied with
broad white satin ribbon. The employees

appropriate emblem in the shape Of broken

white carnations. These and quantities Of
other beautiful floral pieces were ranged at
the head of the casket in the drawing-roOm,

hidden behind huge bank of flowers and
Gala lilies.
The body of the dead Ex-Governor lay in a
plain black caSket in the back parlor of the

pllte with the inscription: Robert w.

Then the final address WAS delivered, after
which the lid OF the ca>ket was removed and the

suffering of MS last illness, but appeared calm
and Deacefui as In gentle sleep.
