musical programme was given at intervals
during the reproduction of the photographs,
fifty pictures being displayed at each in
terval.
All the pictures thrown upon the canvas
were selected from the best efforts of the
various members IF the club and the thor
ough appreciation of their work was evinced
by the frequent applause of the audience.
1t would be impossible in limited space
to mention all the scenes worthy of 1t, but
suffice it to say that embraced in the display
were scenes in Mexico. Panama and Oregon,
the famous snow blockade of 1889, Yosem-
ite Valley, Lake Tahoe. yachting on the San
Francisco Bay, camp life, the Redwoods,
flashlights. freaks of nature, flowers, views
of The moon, animal life. shipping, the OLD
missions, surf pictures, street scenes of the
city and many others too numerous to men-
ton.
Bays, mountains snow capped, green and
fertile valleys, lcafy woodland scenes, fall
flowers, animal life, human figures and
scenes from still life followed each other
and were reproduced to natures self.
The views of the moon were taken with the
Lick telescope lens and were marvellous re-
productions, while fancy picture by Mrs.
Wetmore, called looming ThrO' the Rye"
was an artistic gem. Scenes from the old
missions almost made one imagine their very
presence, and very comfortable feeling Of
inactivity was supeIinduced as the delicious
umbrage of the old corridors was brought
out distinctly by the contrast With the bright
and dazzling sunlight.
The scenes taken by Mr.. Tibbtts in tho
Sierra during the snow blockades of 1889
were wonderful reproductions, even to that
hazy appearance of the atmosphere 81 no.
ticeable in the mountains during the preya-
lenee OF q asnow-Storm.
One of the new features for the occasion
was taken from the Children's Home and
represented in two scenes tug-of-war be-
tween the youngsters. They fairly brought
down the house.
The musical talent rendered several selec-
tions in so excellent manner as to be en-
Enthusiastically applauded and recalled.

II. G. Comstock. at the head of the Order
of Railway Telegraphers. has consulted a
lawyer concerning the legality of the affi-
davit required by the Southern Pacific of all
telegraphers now in the employ of the COM
pany, also those entering the service, and as
to whether a prosecution Tor perjury could
be based upon an oath taken by an operator
in the form required.
The LAWYER. after defining perjury as con-
tanned in the Prnal Code, Section 11S, says:

tiOn for perjury could be based upon an oath
taken. as this is required 10 be, either upon the
question of now belonging to the organization

A CORPORAL HANGED.
Summary Punishment Meted Cut 10 an OBJ
l0XiOuS Petty Officer.

LONDON, Nov. 27.-There was much ex-
element at the Eorse Guards to-day upon
receipt of intelligence from Aldershot,
where is situated great military camp and
barracks, that the spirit OF murderous in
subordination is prevalent In one OF the
regiments stationed at that place. 1t is be-
Heved that this affair is not due to any feel
ing against the army regulations or the ra-
tions served, but is entirely the result OF the
feeling entertained by the prvates of the
second battalion Of the Prince of Wales
Leinster Regiment Royal Canadians
against a corporal who had taken advan-
tage of the little authority entrusted him to
make life as unpleasant as possible for
tho Sc placed under him.
AN OBNOXIOUS OFFICER.
By his petty tyrannies the Corporal has
rendered himself obnoxious to the men, who
made complaints to the higher officers, which
were not noticed. So bitterly angry did the
privates become against the Corporal that
they concluded the only WY to avenge
themselves was TO kill him. So when the
Corporal was going his rounds he was seized
by the men. He attempted to call for assist
Rnce, but his cries were speedily silenced by
q gag. Despite his struggles he was dragged
to convenient spot, moose was thrown
around his neck and he was soon suspended
in the air. The end of the rope was made
tast and the self-appointed executioners de-
eamped.
RESCUED BY A SERGEANT.
Fortunately the Corporal had heen hang
ing only short time when Sergeant dis
covered him and cut the rope. The Cor
p0ral was almost dead, and it required the
most strenuous efforts on the part of the
surgeon and his assistants to resuscitate
him. 1t Is believed it will be so me time be-
fore he can resume his duties. In any event
Il Is thought he has been taught lesson.
The military authorities are making strenu-
Gus efforts TO find out the perpetrators, but
thus far they have been una bic TO discover
who they are.
