THE CAMERA CLUB.
Albert j. LIE Breton, a Quondam Cal
fOrnian, Lectures.

Albert j. LIE Breton, Quondam Cali
fornian, Lectures.
The sixty-third illustrated lecture under
the auspices of the California Camera Club
drew an audience that filled Metropolitan
Hall last evening. Albert J. LIE Breton,
for long time a member of the Pacific
Coast Photographic Association, and who
has returned to this City after a long resi-
dence in Washington, D. c.. was the en-
tertainer. The negatives and slides used
were the work of members of the Capital
Camera Club of Washington, with which
Mr.. LIE Breton was associated.
The entertainment which was appro-
priately entitled Poems and Pictures. ,,
opened with an illustrated presentation of
"Thanatopsis." This was followed by
barytone solo, "Sea Song" by J. F. Elem
ing. Mr., Fleming was encored and sang
''The Holy Friar."
Mr.. LIE Breton's poem, aThe River" was
illustrated, and finally there was miscel-
Ianeous series illustrating the poetry of
nature, and especially dealing with the
queens of the floral kingdom.
Miss Xena Roberts gave a contralto
solo, Perfumes of the Orient" and being
encored responded with ballad.
Mr.. LIE Breton made a most favorable
impression, especially in the illustration of
his own descriptive poem. although that of
"Thanatopsls" was an ambitious and sue
cessful effort. The views illustrating Brv-
ants masterpiece were exceedingly clever.

tanned it's full-dress uniform, it will make
quite fine showing, particularly in num-
bers, there having been quite large ac-
cession to the ranks during the past
month.
Sergeant-Major Bush has been appointed
captain of Company c, Cadet Battalion, at
the university.

Rev. J. Pinasco, ST., who for number
of years has been director of the Gentle
mems Sodality Of st. Ignatius Church, has
been forced to retire from his position, and
to leave this City, on account of the con-
slant i'll health which attends him here.
He will be relieved by the Rev. w. Leggeo

his place.
Father Legged has been in San Francisco

quent preacher and an intellectual man.
He was for great many years project of
studies at st. Ignatius College. Father
Pinasco has been identified with the sodal-
ity since it's inception, and under his
charge it has held together and has be-
come one of the strongest parish organiza-

At the last meeting of the sodality the
members passed vote of sympathy for

HOLIDAY OR NO HOLIDAY
Federal Officials in Doubt as to Whether
or Not Labor Day Should Be
Observed

The last Congress passed bill making
the first Monday. in September legal
holiday to be known as Labor day, and
further provided that it be observed the
same as the Fourth of July and Christmas.
All the Government officers issued notices
saying their various departments would be
closed, but two days before the celebration
a dispatch was received which said the law
only applied to the District of Columbia
and the Territories, consequently all the
Government offices were open as usual.
Later, it was learned that all the Federal
officials in the East took holiday, and the
Western men were mad in consequence.
The Federal officials seem to be divided
on the question. Postmaster McCoppln
has posted notice to the effect that his
department will be closed except during
the usual holiday hours. United States
District Attorney Foote will close his de-
partment, and Judge Morrow has ad-
journed court until next Tuesday morning.
On the other hand, Judge McKenna will
open the Circuit Court as usual. and Col
lectors Wise and Welburn are in guam

responsibility, and for time it looked as
though there would be no illustrated lee
lures delivered at Atlanta.
d. M. Carmen of the State Development
Committee would not let the matter drop
in this way and he interested the COM
mittee to such an extent that it has taken
up the work abandoned by the Half
million Club. Views from all parts of the
State will be presented on stereopticon
slides at the Atlanta fair. The same COM
mittee will ask the State Board of Hor-
ticulture to take up the work of running a
cooking exhibition at the exposition, and
the promotion of sales of California
products in the East, in connection with
the stereopticon lectures that are to be
given.
1t is now assumed that through the
ested, the entire plan as outlined by the
promotion committee of the Half-million
Club will be carried out.

short time yesterday. He returned last Thurs
dey from months sojourn in Alaska, and
there was not person employed in the Fed

Contradictions.

Samuel w. Allerton, a prominent
Chicago merchant. has been travel
ing. Upon his return home he said
he saw numerous indications while
away that the business situation had
improved wonderfully and was get
ting better every day. Foreign cap
ital, he said. was coming to this
country in large sums. He declared
his belief that the next president OF
the United States would be William
Mckinley, of Ohio, and that he
would be elected upon a platform
that favored a high protective tariff.
Just why there would be any need
of platform favoring high protec-
tive tariff, Mr.. Allerton failed to ex-
plain. If under the operation OF
tariff reform 1.-the business situation
had improved wonderfully and was
getting better every day" and "for-
eign capital was coming TO this
country in large sums" why a desire
on the part of Mr.. Allerton or any
one else to restore McKinlcyism? 1t
rather looks as though by the time
the republicans meet to adopt plat
form they will find the country en-
joying such high state of prosperi-
ty that high protection will knock
them skv high.

Engraving on Glass.

A most ingeniously contrived machine
for engraving on glass. insuring the rap
id and economic production of decora-
tive work in that line. as also in metal
manufactures of every variety, is de-
scribed in Tho English Mechanic.
Among the merits claimed for this de-
vice is the fact of there being no limit
TO tho number Of objects that may be
operated upon simultaneously. with a
perfect uniformity Of workmanship, and
further, the facility with which this
machine, being Of IL multiplying pow
or. can be operated upon and replaced
with fresh objects, is another important
characteristic, and three different pat
terms may be produced in one hour on
q single machine. Tho construction Of
this apparatus fulfills the desideratum
of great simplicity, it would appear
that is, the globes. or whatever is to be
engraved, are fixed on platforms in two
upright cylindrical forms, these plat
forms being raised Or lowered as desired
by means of n handle, and the engrav-
ing needles are applied or let off by n
touch of the treadlc-the pattern to be
followed resting on u board at the back.
