MUST SHAVE BEFORE noon.
THE NEW Law FOR CLOSING BAR
BER-SHOPS COMES INTO
FORCE TO-DAY.
DRAFTED BY A GRAND MASS
MEETING.

The law for closing barber-shops at noon
on Sundays comes into force to-day, and
the BARRIERS are preparing to celebrate the
event by grand mass-meeting, which will
be held at Foresters' Hall, 102 O'Farrell
street. at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon.
Three months ago, when a member of
enthusiastic members of the tonsorial pro-
fession, were working to make the bill for
closing the shops on Sundays law, q
meeting was held in Red Mems Hall,
which resulted in the formation of the
BARRIERS Association of San Francisco. 1t
is under the auspices of this organization
that the mass-meeting this afternoon will
be held The officers and members of the
BARRIERS Protective Union will be present
by special invitation, though many of the
leading spirits in the association are mem
beers also of the union.
W. G. Seppich, president of the BARRIERS
Protective Union, said yesterday evening:
think the meeting will be very successful
one, as the BARRIERS are enthusiastic over hay
ing secured the bill, and they will bring their
friends, and their wives and sisters too, very
probably. One good effect OF the meeting will
be to draw general attention to the fact that it
is now law for BARRIERS shops to be closed
half the day on Sundays.
When asked whether it was the inten-
ton OF the ASSOCIATION to take any steps In
case the law was not Immediately COM
piled with w. G. Seppich replied:
We shall keep our eyes open to see whether
the law is being observed. If any one violates
it and appears stubborn committee viii be
appointed and the case will be made test one
To keep q barber-shop open after noon on
Sunday is now a misdemeanor with fine OF
from $40 to $50.
Another matter that intend to bring for
ward at the meeting is that of the San joaquin
road The BARRIERS are progressive people
and the State has done good deal for US. It
seems to me that we ought to reciprocate and
try 10 do something for the State by helping
along the railroad.
| An attractive programme has been ar
ranged for the mass-meeting, which be-
| gins at $50 this afternoon. There will be
short addresses by well-known men, and
the exercises will also include musical
selections. Among the speakers will be {:
Charles M. Shortridge, editor and propri-
| etor of the CALL; III. G. w. Dinkelspiel,
and William G.. Seppich. Senator Meal
lister of Marin County, who introduced
| the bilPthat becomes law to-day, was to
have been among the speakers, but bust
ness compels him to leave the city this
morning.

The Awakening Tiger.

Between the drowsy sleep of the noctur-
nal animals and the representative sleep
of those which spend their lives in con-
slant fear of their enemies place must be
found for the form of slumber enjoyed by
the large carnivora and that of domestic
animals; the former have no enemies to
fear, except man, and the latter, protected
by man, enjoy to the full extent the bless
ing of natural rest.
Tigers are frequently found fast asleep
in the daytime. Native hunters have been
known to track them after kill" to the
place in which they were lying fast asleep
and gorged with food, and to shoot them
as they lie. When taking his midday re-
pose in districts where it is little disturbed
the tiger doris not always retire to a place
of security like the bear, or even the leop-
ard, which usually sleeps on the branch of
a tree.
1t just lies down in some convenient
spot, either shady or warm, according to
the weather, and there sleeps almost re-
CARELESS of danger. They have been found
lying in dry nullahs, under trees and even
in the grass of the hillsides, unobserved,
until their disturber came within a few
yards of them.
General Douglass Hamilton, when shoot
ing in the Dandilly forest, came
upon tigress and two cubs lying
fast asleep on their backs, with their
paws sticking up in the air, under
clump of bamboos. When he was
within few yards of the group one
raised its head and, without moving its
body, quietly looked at him along the line
of its body between its paws. Tigers kept
in captivity awaken gradually, stretching
and yawning like dog.-The Spectator.

eyes, the rumor that l am going back to
Honolulu to take possession of the Ha-
waiian Government is quite true" said Q.
w. Ashford ,ex-Attorney- General and exile,
at the Lick House last night. "And I
think President Dole will take reef in his
whiskers when he reads about it," he
added.
"But it is not true that have chartered
the schooner Alexander, or any other yes
sci, as yet. Of course we, the exiles, have
had all sorts of secret meetings and coun-
ellis of war, and have Matched some horrible
plots.
Zone of the propositions now pending
before our grand council is for each of the
exiles to take gun between his teeth and
swim over there by easy stages. We don't
need fast-sailing schooner. A common
whaleboat, laden with dozen determined
men, arms, ammunition and provisions,
would be sufficient. We held very lively
and highly edifying council of war to-
night and had an excellent supper along
with it. What was said and done concerns
our affairs of state, and must be kept
automatically secret. When I am ready
to issue political manifesto | will publish
it in the want columns of some enterpris-
ing evening paper in this city.
Money? Oh. we have any amount of
that. All the exiles came away with great
wads OF cash and other valuables. We
looted the islands before we left. But we
are not satisfied with what we got. Like
Oliver Twist, we want more of the same /;
but we don't want it for ourselves or our
friends in the cages over there, but for Mr..
Dole and his fellow-tyrants.
But SERIOUSLY" Mr. Ashford continued !:
sit is very likely that tilibustering expe-
dition to Hawaii will be started and that 1
will be right in the middle of it. In JUS
tice to my common sense, however, will
say that when charter vessel to take
me and my friends and our guns to
Hawaii, the public at large will neither be
informed nor consulted in the matter"
