cutie n Go. d Let of Game Bagged-
Much Benefited by the Trip.
The President and party reached the city
on the lighthouse tender Violet about
o'clock Saturday afternoon. There were
with Mr.. Cleveland, DIR. O'Reilly, his
physician Commander Lamberton, super
intendent of the lighthouse district, and
Commander Wilder. secretary of the light
house board. During the comparatively
short time that the party were actually
trying for game they managed to conjure
fifty fine specimens of brant, forty-one
ducks and twelve snipe. The President
looks hale and hearty, and says he was
much benefited by his outing. The Violet
will return Immediately over the same
route to deliver supplies and to return
drifting buoys to their proper places. The
recent storms caused much damage to the
lighthouses and buoys in this district, and
the Violet has considerable work to do at
once. It is stated that the recent trip of
the presidential party did not cost the gov
eminent a penny, inasmuch as the Presf-
dent paid all the extra expense out of his
own pocket. The only extra expense was
for rations, and the President was assessed
at the rate offone dollar day each for
himself and DR.. OReilly. AS the naval
officers were travelling on official business,
they were not assessed.

SPLIT AMONG F0RESTERS,
Loreley Circle of the Ameri-
can Order Is an Inde-
pendent Body.
New Laws in Both Branches OF the
Society Cause Temporary
Trouble.

The painful results of discord have been
made apparent in the Foresters' order
through new laws passed by the Grand
Court, and at present the society is adjust
ing whatever disturbing elements may
have thus arisen.
Some time ago the courts of the Ancient
Order of Foresters entered into COMPETE
ton with each other to increase their men,
bership. Extra inducements were offered
by the several courts in the way of sick
benefits, and finally the competition be-
came so spirited that some of the courts
offered to pay sick members So week
while the monthly dues were kept at so
cents. But the benefit funds ran short and
those who succumbed to illness first re-
ceived their weekly allowance of S., while
those who were tardy in their sickness re-
ceived nothing from the fund. It was ex-
hausted.
At the last meeting OF the Grand Court
laws were passed to check this competition
and keep it within reasonable bounds. 1t
was deemed detrimental to the order to
have courts take in new members on an
i'm practicable financial basis. But some
of the courts did not see the matter in the
same light, and threatened to withdraw
and set up in business on their own ac-
count.
The first to carry out this threat was
Alcatraz Circle No. So. None other has
followed suit Secretary Falconer said
that the order would rather lose a number
ofcourts than have the individual societies
conduc, business on q fictitious financial
basis. The wisdom of the new law was
beginning to be understood, however, and
no further secession was anticipated.
The same trouble has fallen on the For
esters of America. The Grand Circle
Qadies branch) of that organization passed
laws at its session in San Jose, June and
g. to correct mistaken zeal, similar to that
specified, and one of the circles, Loreley
No. &c, withdrew and constituted itself an
Independent society. 1t was the only Ger
man circle in the order.
Miss Bremen, the grand secretary, said
in speaking about the secession yesterday:
drawals. The trouble, l think, is due to
the fact that the circle and its officers did
not comprehend the purpose of the consti-
tutional amendments. The new laws are
in the interest of the order as whole.
1t is too large an organization to take
cognizance of local competition. The
Grand Circle has to look out for the well
fare and prosperity of the order as an en-
tirety and in all of its qualifications. We
do not anticipate any more trouble on this
head. AS soon as the effect and purpose of
the new laws are thoroughly understood
everything will glide on as smoothly and
frictionless as ever"

municipal discussions. In the execution
of Government work l use what | think
best. We are putting in foundations of
concrete on the military reservation, for
which | am using considerable quantities
of blue and gray rock. In the'fortifica-
tons at Lime Point we have made use of
it. 1t is the rock of the country"
V. NJ. Frodden, Superintendent of
Streets of Alameda, in speaking of rock for
macadam purposes last week, said: Two
streets of Alameda are paved with blue
San Francisco in barges. 1t makes a
beautiful street and gives eminent salts
faction. Alameda has thirty miles of
streets. most of which have been macad-
amized during the past three years."
"Intil the thoroughfare around the grand
court of the recently held Midwinter Fair
in Golden Gate Park had been macad-
amized the mud gave great deal of an
noyance," said Colonel A. Andrews at the
Palace last evening. The continual
teaming worked the roadway into complete
ing of rock indispensable. The blue and
gray rock used gave satisfaction, being
clean and firm during rain and compare
lively free from dust when dry. The
drives of the fair were the subject of much
favorable comment"

THE NATIONAL GUARD.
Board of Location VIII Order Twelve
More Infantry Companies
Mustered Out,

Tomorrow the military Board of Lo-
cation will meet in this City to complete
the work of reorganizing the National
Guard. djutant-General A. W. Barrett
came down from Sacramento yesterday,
Major-General w. Fl. Dimond is in the
City, and Governor Budd will come to-day
or tomorrow.
The appropriation provided by the last
Legislature is sufficient to maintain in
effective style five companies of the Naval
Battalion, four companies of cavalry and
fifty companies of infantry. In order to
reduce the infantry companies to the
proper number it will be necessary to mus
ter out twelve more companies.
The acknowledgement said last night
that fifty companies, recruited up to the
maximum, would be much more effective
than sixty-five companies of indifferent
strength. He understands that the men,
beers OF the board will take hold of the SUBJ
ject of reorganization tomorrow and
adhere closely to it until the work is COM
pleted. Since the task must be performed
it is thought better to have it done with
and allow every organization TO know Just
how and where it stands.

No Fault of His.

BERKELEY.

A large crowd assembled in Judge Lord 8
courtroom yesterday to hear the passing of
the sentence on +. ]. O'Brien, who was
found guilty last Wednesday of selling
liquor without license, but as the defend
ants attorney did not appear az the time
set for sentence the matter was deferred.
In the afternoon Attorney Clarity,
O'Briens counsel, came into court and
filed bond for an appearance before the
Superior Court. The fine by the Judge
was S35.
Rumor has it that if the case be finally
decided against. % 'Brien an effort will be
made by his supporters to cut off West
Berkeley from the rest of the town. There
seems to be considerable dissatisfaction
among the West Enders with regard to the
government of the town. for they believe
that they are not accorded the advantages
which other parts OF town enjoy.
The West Berkeley Robberies.
The father of young Cohen yesterday
offered a reward of $40 to any one who
will give proof that his boy had any con-
nection with the small burglaries in South
Berkeley. The boy was not locked up on
account of the Mckenzie affair, but be-
cause he stayed out late from home. 1t is
supposed that two or more were implicated
in the series of little thefts, but so far there
has not been any proof that young Cohen
broke into Mr.. McKenze's house. nor did
his father ever acknowledge to Mr. Nc
Kenzie that his boz did it. The only sus-
piciou that was placed on Cohen was that
he was around there and had money and
bought five bottles of sarsaparilla to treat
the boys for the Fourth" He always
played in the heighborhood and had pocket
money.
