JOURNEYMEN BUTCHERS
They Will Celebrate Their
Ninth Anniversary at
Shell Mound.
a Barbecue Some Of the
Features.

The iournevmen butchers of San Fran
cisco, Oakland, San Rafael and Sausalito
will celebrate their ninth anniversary at
Shell Mound Park tomorrow. They will
be joined by the Metzger Verein and the
sheep butchers of South San Francisco,
and the parade of the united societies,
every man wearing a white apron, is
expected to be an imposing affair.
The butchers will assemble in front of
Pythian Hall on Market street at s 80 A. NJ.
The grand marshal of the parade will be
Armand Decourtieux Jr. Owing to the
successful manner in which he handled
the men on the occasion of butchers day
at the Midwinter Fair, the association
unanimously decided upon him as leader
tomorrow. Marshal DecouItieux will
have his men in line at 9 A. M, and start
will then be made for the ferries. No
wagons will be permitted in the line of
march, and none but journeymen butchers
may participate.
From Pythian Hall the men will march
to Kearny street, then along Kearny to
California, down California to Mont
gomery, along Montgomery to Market and
thence to the ferries.
At Shell Mound Park there will be all
are sure to be in attendance. First and
foremost two well-grown sucking PIGS will
be creased and set at liberty. Any one
succeeding in capturing them can kept
them for his pains. The greasy pole will
keep others amused, and the man who
climbs it will have to be an expert. A
spring lamb will be his reward.
On the racetrack the men from Butcher
town and the owners of fast horses will
hold sway. There will be exhibitions of
bareback riding and feats of skill by cow
boys riding wild broncos. Trotting, pac-
ing and running races will fill up the time
and barbecue will be the grand finale
In the park proper there will be all kinds
of athletic games, concluding with tug
of-war between married and single men.
There will be rife shooting for prizes, and
the members of the various committees
who have the affair in hand say it will not
be their fault if visitors do not enjoy them
selves.
The managers of the picnic are as fol-
lows:

tieux Jr.; floor managers-E. ]. Haskins, w. j.

blue.
But onward we had to climb. We
tramped on until we reached the great
gate with drawbridge and closed great por-
tai and outfanking towers. The great
gate opened before US, and before we had
time to notice the relief above it, of a
figure on horseback, a modern PruSslan
sentinel in a very old brown overcoat and
ancient helmet passed Us on up the slopes,
while we heard issuing from the gatehouse
the sound of a either being played by one
of the post off duty.
The figure over the gateway is that OF
Kurfurst Frederick l, and is copied from
his own seal, with the dates 1415 to 1440,
and beneath this are the notices.:

the gate tells of how Frederick William

castle in 1850, and in 1858 it was finished.
A curious and cleverly built winding
roadway and tunnel leads up to the top OF

rived at the top of this twisting gangway,
a terrace is reached, and, standing up on
the balustrade, are two fine stone figures
of men with lances, in ffteenth-century
armor; and glorious prospect it is they
ever have before their eyes, of the spurs
and DARK wild mountains of the Rugged
(Rauen) Alps to the left and the softer
landscape of forest and woodland and
yillage-dotted meadows to the right.
Far down below, some 1000 feet, like lit
tie specks in the distance, were the vii
lages of Hechingen and Stetten and Pohl,
and away, on this side of the castle, to the
right lay the dark, wild, jagged, treeless
spurs of the rugged Alps; their black
rocks swept clean here and there of the
snow that clothed other parts of them in
pure soft beauty.

pleasant sense of antiquity about this little

on the other side of the courtyard, which
is dedicated to the Protestant worship.

be the dedication monument of the first

sun was shining strongly through the win

The most interesting part of the castle

are remnants of the fourteenth and fif-

The Associated Charities held its regular
weekly meeting yesterday afternoon.
The registrar reported total of 1856 cases
for the week. Thirty-one were new cases
and fifty-two recurrent. Forty-six cases
were investigated for the several sub-socie-

Spartan Devotion.

A mothers love for her children is al
ways being illustrated, not only in
books but in real life. A true story is
told of lady whose baby was very ill.,
and who sat watching the child with
absorbed attention, every instant fear
ing another CONFUSION and praying for
deliverance from it. At her side stood
an older child, who had stolen into the
room unobserved, and who was trying
to prick the little black spots in nam.
mas muslin sleeves with needle he
had found. Presently the father came
in and the little child was seen and
sent away. "What is the matter with
your arm?" whispered the gentleman
to his wife when, at last, they turned
to each other and smiled their thank
fulness that the baby had fallen asleep.
II don't know" said she; nothing
that am aware Of" She put up her
hand and found that the thin muslin
sleeve was soaked with blood. The
little boy had become so absorbed in
his sport that he had "jabbed" with all
his might, and she, in her terrible anx-
iety, had not felt the thrusts.-Youth's

The City Election.

Yesterdays municipal election passed
off very quietly, resulting in clean
sweep for the Republicans. Outside OF
Wards 8 and z, the Democrats made little
effort, and even here their labors were In
vain. Ward z has been Democratic SO
long that the Republicans had little hope
of carrying it; but a strong ticket
and united effort carried them through.
The result of the vote shows that the
people of this city have been well satisfied
with Mayor Milliken' s administration. He
has been a practical, progressive chief
magistrate and has had associated with
him in his work city government Of
exceptional strength, representative in a
marked degree of the business interests OF
the city. The Republicans of the city
were never more harmonious than they
were Yesterday. Their primaries had
been singularly free from friction and
their ticket was one that commanded the
confidence and respect of our citizens.
The affairs of our city are in safe hands
for the coming year. and are sure to be
wisely and we'll.

One of the most important and valu-
able undertakings in the State is the
work of copying old plans Of Maine towns
and townships the originals of which are
in the archives of Massachusetts,. These

Element of town and lot boundaries The
work was instituted and pushed forward
by Land Agent Packard and has been
continued by Land Agent Oak. Maj
James Fl. Cochrane formerly deputy sec
rotary of State who is in charge of the
work is one of the most expert draughts-
men in the country. He was for many
years in the service of the United States
government. 1t is fortunate indeed tina,
the State has so efficient a man in charge
of the matter. The work he has already
accomplished, during the past few years,
will compare favorably with anything Of
the kind in the country. For the exceed
ingly small appropriations made for this
service the State is receiving untold
benefits, not only for those who now live
to appreciate them, but in a larger sense
for those yet unborn who must take the
records of events as we leave them.

WILLIAM L. WILSON.

The accompanying portrait is that OF
William Lyme Wilson, chosen to succeed
Postmaster General Wilson A. Bissell,
resigned. Mr.. Wilson was torn near
Charleston, West Virginia, May 3, 1913.
AS child he was studiously inclined
and at IS he entered the Columbian Col
lege at Washington, and from there in
1860 he went to the University of Vir-
ginia to finish his education. The be-
ginning of the war changed his plans,
however, and he entered the Confederate
service in which he remained through the
as private. For some years after
the war he was professor of Latin in Col
umbia College and subsequently practiced
law. In 1882 he was elected to Congress,
and is at present serving his sixth term.
He is the author of the celebrated tariff
bill that bears his name. While professor
of Latin in Columbia College he married
