Section 10, OF scale of prices, relating to block
headings for articles, and Section 5, of the
newspaper regulations, limiting the number of
department. men employed in an Office, shall
be suspended while such agreement is in force.
In effect, this amendment permits a
larger number of time-hands to be en-
ployed than has been the rule, and also re-
duces slightly the compensation heretofore
charged for certain classes of advertising
matter.
1t was well-attended meeting, and sew
erai applications were made for member
ship in the union. The secretary reported
that eighty-four members had recently left
the City provided with transportation by
the union, and that balance of $500 yet
remained in the fund of $1,000 appropriated
by the union for the benefit of the men
who were displaced by the recent introduce
ton of typesetting machines on most OF
the daily papers and who desire to leave
town.

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION.
Reductions Made in the Newspaper
Scale Where Men Are Not Dis
placed by Machines.

AT the meeting of the San Francisco
Typographical Union No. q yesterday aft
ernoon it was decided to make reduction
in the morning newspaper scale wherever
the proprietors would enter into an agree
ment with the union not to displace hand
composition with typesetting machines
for period of a year and half, at least
The proposition has been under discus
sion for some time past, and it was made
special order yesterday. A few of the job
and book men opposed the plan, fearing
it would open the doors for a cut in their
scale. 1t was argued that this could hardly
be the result, for the condition proposed
was special and conditional in its nature,
and when it came to VOTE the measure
was easily passed. 1t reads as follows:
In any morning or evening newspaper in
which the proprietor shall enter into an agree
ment with this union to make use of only hand
composition for period of eighteen months
following the adoption Of this amendment,

TROPHIES FOR SCORES.
The SharpshoOters of the Police Force
to Be Interested in Team
Cnmnefitinn

Captain Whitman and his officers, who
are directing the rifle and revolver practice
of the police force members, propose
within very short time to offer trophies
for competitive matches between selected
teams. Since the commencement of this
new feature of the police service tn ose in
charge of the work have carefully noted
the degree Of target hitting proficiency of
the officers at practice, and the men have
been sized up pretty thoroughly. 1t has
been already determined to considerable
degree just what men are worthy of mem
bership in the senior classes. When the
announcement of trophies is made within
few weeks these crack shots of the police
service will have very formal try at each
other on the City Hall range.
The policemen who are now practicing
have acquired enough proficiency at the
preliminary stages of such work to war
rant few innovations within week or
two. They have had abundant fun demol-
ishing the circumj acence, and they now
find the target, and occasionally the bulls
eye, with comparative ease. A few weeks
OF practice in firing the revolver with
stretched arm will bring them to snap and
time target shooting.

FIVE SUNDAY ARRIVALS,
THE MARECHAL SUCHET WENT
ASHORE DURING A TYPHOON
IN JAPAN.
SAD STORY OF THE INVERURIE's LAST
VOYAGE TO THIS
PORT.

Four coal vessels and one laden with
general merchandise came into the harbor
Yesterday, their cargoes aggregating almost
900 tons.
The British ship Beecroft, 166 days from
London, had an uneventful voyage, with
the usual blows off the Horn. The Ameri-
can ship Louisiana arrived, ten days from
Nanaimo, with 2224 tons of coal The
British ship Marechal Suchet was forty-six
days from Nagasaki, with 1872 tons of coal.
On July "A, while lying in the harbor OF
Kotchinotzu, she was blown ashore by q
typhoon. but was afterward foated off
without injury. The terrible gale beached
her, fortunately, where she found a berth
of soft mud, in which she wallowed safely
till the storm had passed. She was docked
at Nagasaki and part of her cargo taken
out, but the tight ship had gone through
it all safely.
The British ship Carnarvonshire also
came in, 100 days from Swansea, with 1885,
tons of coal. She caught a hard three
weeks blow near the Horn which drove
the vessel far to the southwark of the
cape. Heavy gales, high seas and blind
ing snowstorms were the order of every
| day, until the wretched crew almost forgot
| the sensation OF summer time. After
passing out of the tempest haunted la ii
tudes the remainder of the voyage was
pleasant.
The British bark Inverurie arrived
| sixty-five days from Newcastle, Australia
with 2247 tons of coal. Her last trip here
was June 10, 1894, when she came in with
her master, Captain Willox, demented
| and in irons, and the crew in a state OF
mutiny. The captains wife was dead on
board, the victim of the bungling attend
ance of passenger who pretended to be 8
physician.

Mare Island Letter.

MAKE ISLAND, CAL, Oct. 26.-In 1865,
one year after the close of the Civil War,
there were on the navy register the names
of 1871 officers, S25 having dropped from
the roll by resignation or dismissal and los
having died within the year, making the
number OF officers at the beginning OF 1864
reach the enormous aggregate of 9714. AT
that time, however. the navy list included
632 masters" or navigators, and 900 ''mas-
ters' mates''-ranks now obsolete-besides
1914 warrant officers and 458 "midshipmen, -
as naval cadets were then styled, neither
OF which ranks now appears in the official
lists of officers.
According then to present rating there
were in the United States navy of thirty
years ago 6588 officers, or an actual pay
roll of 9714 individuals above the rank of
marine and sailor.
OF vessels there were then belonging to
the navy CIT, including every class. Forty
nine are recorded as having been cap
tured, destroyed. sold, etc. since the
publication of the last previous issue OF
the navy register, making a list of 726
vessels of all descriptions on hand at the
close of the war;
The latest navy register, dated January
1, 1895, gives list of 1851 officers, and re-
cords the names of 10S vessels of all de-

LIGHTS At THE PARK.
Improvements That Are Being Made
by the commissioners.

Improvements That Are Being Made
by the Commissioners.
The sun shone bright and clear yester-
day morning, but by the noon hour it was
hid behind the clouds; consequently the
crowd at Golden Gate Park was not as
large as usual.
The band, which did not perform the
previous Sunday on account of the rain,
gave an excellent concert yesterday, and it
was directed by Spadina, who, when he ap-
peared as conductor, vice Fritz Scheel, was
loudly applauded.
Most OF the log cabins that were built on
the site of the 40 camp and were allowed
to remain for time, as they were not in
any ones way, have been taken down and
the logs carted to the water-works and cut
up for use in firing up the boilers. Two or
three cabins will be allowed to remain to
serve as reminders of the architecture of
the days OF gold in the mines. The ground
is being leyeled and covered with loan,
preparatory to setting out a number Of
trees.
The large vale east of Straw berry Hill is
being put into condition preparatory to
converting it into arborium, in which a
large number of trees will be set out.
Stow lake is at this time covered with
ducks.
The conservatory was crowded all day
with people who were attracted there by
the large and varied exhibit of chrysanthe-
NUNS.
The new lodge is nearly covered and is
almost ready for the roofers to commence
work.
Petitions are being signed in nearly all
the cycleries in the vicinity of the park.
These ask the Commissioners to light up
the main drive with electricity.
a new road will soon be open to cyclers.
1t is the one south of the main drive.
A great many people rode to the beach,
but did not remain there long.

men REQUIRE ORGANIZATIONS
TO ENsHRINE SPIRITUAL
PRINCIPLES.

Yesterday was the thirtieth anniversary
of the foundation of Trinity Presbyterian
Church in California.
In October, 1865, the Calvary Sunday
school organized in the Mission of this
City. J. D. Roberts, Mr.. Nicholson, to-
gether with Rev DR.. Wadsworth, were
instrumental in securing the new organi-
cation.
The school gradually grew into church,
and in the course of about two years q
building was erected on Howard street,
near Twenty-second, for the purpose of &C
commodating the increasing congregation.
In 1888 new church was erected and
christened the Trinity Presbyterian
Church, where at the present time the con-
gregation worships.

FLAGS OVER SCHOOLS.
Why Some City Schools Do Not Display
Old Glory to BE Inquired Into.


Aside from fraternal and beneficial
features one object of the Junior Order of
American Mechanics is to inspire reverence for
the flag of the United States. On the 18th OF
last month Nathan Hale Council of Auburn
assisted al flag raising at Alderman, Placer
County, on the district school, the council hay
ing presented the flag. This w6s such sue
cessful affair that on Saturday the same couu-
ell raised flag with appropriate ceremonies
and patriotic feeling over the schoolhouse Mt
Long Valley, same county. The council was
assisted by Gateway Council No. n OF New
castle.
On Saturday there was also fag-raising by
California Council No. 10 at Lompoc over the
district High School. Within a short time the
order in the United States has raised over 5000
negs over sehoolhouses in the United States.
The officers OF the Local councils having
taken notice that the American flag floats from
me stan OF some of the public schools in this
Clly ana not from others, they will make an
inquiry and insist that the rule OF the School
department directing that the stars and stripes

LEA & PERKINS, Sauce (the Worcestershire has
attained so great reputation for its exquisite
flavor and piquancy and the demand for il has be-
come so universal, that limitations, similarly
labeled and named, have been offered for sale by
unscrupulous and irresponsible persons. AS pro-
lection against such methods the proprietors of
the genuine article have caused their firm sigma

diagonaly the outside wrapper OF every
bottle of their Justly Celebrated Sauce. Patrons
will find this certain well as a very convenient
method of distinguishing the genuine from the
fraudulent.
