Mrs. Hugh Tevis was their only child.
Before her marriage she was a recognized
belle and a most charming and synpa-
thetic young lady. She was simple and
unassuming in manner, and had many ac-
mplishments of high order. After her
union with Mr.. Hugh Tevis she still pre-
served her simplicity and wonderful
charm of manner, aud welded great in
fluence In society affairs Her friends ale
legion, and the news of her death will
come as very great blow 10 many.
Those who witnessed the marriage of
Miss Alice Boalt and Hugh Tevis in Grace
Church on the evening of Saturday. No
vember 10. 1890, will recall the brilIiance
of the scene. 1t was remarkably hand
some couple that DIR. FOute united in we'd
lock little over three years ago. The
affair was the great event of the season of
1890. In the decoration of the church on
that occasion no less than 49, 900 chrysan-
themums alone were used, while the guam
tity of other choice plants and flowers was
simply prodiRious. Miss Butler of Phila-
delphla and Miss Chabot of Oakland were
the maids of honor. and Lansing V. Kel-
logg was the best man. The audience in
cluded the leaders of society here and all
the wealth and beauty of San Francisco.
Some months after the marriage of their
daughter Judge aud Mrs. Boalt went on an
extended tour through Europe. They
gave up their house at 1872 Haight street
and visited all the places of note in the
Old World. taking in Egypt They re-
turned not very long ago.
The remains of Mrs. Hugh Tevis will
probably be brought on TO this city for
interment. but no arrangements as yet

THE MEMORIAL ODE.
Lines With Which Mrs. Stanford Is
Especially Pleased.

Especially Pleased.
The third number on the programme
was the ode written and read by Professor
A G. Newcomer of Stanford University.
President Jordan preceded the reading of
the ode with a few remarks upon Found
er's day. The ode, with which Mrs. STAN
ford was especially pleased. has passages
which those who were privileged to hear
it read yesterday. declare might find
place beside the immortal poem OF James
Russell Lowell.
Broad in scope, the poem consisted of
two distinct parts, the second or which
bore the local application.
The second part Of the poem opens with
these stirring lines:
Upon the ew Worlds westward slope,
~ here eager eyes catch color from the dawn
And fash lack radiance of balf-risen hope
Where life may drink at founts still unwith-
drawn
And breathe with respiration large and free,
A marvel springs 10 meet the morning. See
Between the great seas utmost inland surge
Ana rising hills that shelter from the sea.

One into one and bring all wondrous things
That sad lands wrest but from reluctant springs
All flower and fruitage OF earth's largeness,
stands
This latest wonder as divine as they.
Albeit The fabric Il weak human hands,
Clay shaped by kindred clay.
The concluding stanZa declares:
Here by thy steadfast creed
That reach OF human deed
Is bounded but by Gods immense
mmensurable benefcence.
And by this stone memorial or thy trust
That man Is more than dust,
We consecrate US to the work OF need.
Here let us aud our little to thy large

And with the breath Of Gods own life made
