pretty town in San Mateo County he was
accompanied by Messrs. Jackson, Burg
man and Belts.
The great incohonee is man of medium
height, middle age, dark complexion and
features that denote great intelligence and
force of character. By profession he is a
journalist, but since he was raised to the
high Office he now holds he has retired
from active work and is not doing journal
istic work except in the line of furnishing
news of the order to number of newspa-
pers. fraternal and other, in various parts
OF the Union.
He expressed himself well pleased with
the generous welcome he received on reach
ing this State, and said:
This is indeed delightful change, getting
into g country where there is such balmy at
mosphere after having been for many days in
the land of mist, pouring rain and snow. Ii
we had such weather as this in Danvers, Mass,
my home, between October and April, 1t would
be delightful.
Since started on this tour have visited the
tribes and councils in the reservations of the
Northwest and everywhere | met great deal
more enthusiasm in the order than there had
been for some time. This seems 10 be the time
for activity among the Red Men, whose order
is truly pstriotic, not proscriptive one. 1t is
the embodiment OF true American patriotism,
being founded on the principles of democracy
in addition it has its beneficiary features.
After crossing the County line on the
trip southwark the visitor, who is very
close observer, expressed his admiration
of the appearance of the verdure-covered
hills, the green fields, the trees in full
foliage, and said

tells US were the most wonderful people ever

4 QUESTION OF DAYS,
Mrs. Northey May Collect Upon
Her Husbands Life
Insurance.
The Intervention of a Sunday Saved
the Policy From Becoming
Delinquent.

Mrs. Charlotte Northey will get her
money from the Bankers Life Association,
but the circumstances which have con-
spired to assist her in getting it are strange
and interesting.
Mrs. Northey is the widow of Frank
Northey who was murdered by Harry
Tborne some years ago. Northey was in
.sured in the Bankers Life Association for
$1,000, and upon his death the widow de-
manded the money. 1t was refused, on
the ground that Northey was delinquent
in his premiums. Suit was brought, and
the decision of the court went against Mrs.
Northey. She appealed to the Supreme
Court, and the Supreme Court has reversed
the order denying a new trial, the reasons
given being practically decision in Mrs.
Northeys favor.
The payments on Northey's policy of in
surance were due on the first days of jan
uary, April, July and October, and, each
pavment ran to the next month before be-
ing delinquent. Northey was shot on Fri
day, April %, and he died on May 1. He
had not paid the premium for April at the
time he was shot, nor was it paid before his
death on the first day OF the month, in
which, under ordinary clrcum stances, the
premium would have been delinquent.
The lower court held that when Northev
died his policy was delinquent, and under
the terms of such policies the beneficiary
could not collect.
In the Supreme Court, however. the in

"Ixion" at the Tivoli.

Frequenters of the Tivoli will mount to
Olympian heights this week in the pursuit Of
mimic pleasures.
There was revival last evening OF "Ixion,"
or "The Man of the Wheel which has not
been seen by San Francisco audience since it
was brought here by the Worren sisters and
George Knight twelve years ago.
1t is delicious absurdity in which there are
flights to the cloud domain on the capacious
back of a big American eagle, and modern
opera in classic setting of ruined Thessalian
temples and Jovian reception halls. The med
ley OF Hellenic ages and nineteenth century
times is typifed in Willie Acropolis, court
jester with an ancient name and up-to- date
jokes.
The scenic effects and transformations are
excellent. Alice Carle sustains well her role
of rakish monarch of eye olden times" Her
opening song, 'The Same Story Over" won for
her repeated encores. John J. Rafael was a
dignifed and tuneful Jove, and Ferris Hart
man prime favorite as the irrepressible funny
man. The dance of the Greek maidens was
fairly performed. Bacchus' dispensary mod
ernized was source OF fun galore The grand
ballet OF the butterflies and the concluding
transformation, 'Sea Shells" were pleasing
features.

we incorporate in our ritualstic work and at
the same time teach lesson of love for
country. Further, we want TO establish q CEN
trail point where may be gathered every scrap
of American history, and we are in favor of
appropriating certain sum annually to be ex-
pended in the purchase of books on American
history for the instruction of those of the

On the subject OF the Daughters of Poca-
hontas, the woman's auxiliary, Mr.. Patton
said:
There are now great number of councils OF
Daughters and the membership aggregates

possibly five, supreme councils viii be estab-
lished-one in Kansas. another in Indiana, q
third in Connecticut, the fourth in New York
and the fifth in New Jersey. The establish
ment of such council in California will be
determined next summer.
At Redwood City, when the train ar
rived, the day was perfect. The visitor
and those accompanying him were re-
ceived by committee OF Metamora Tribe
George w. LOWE and T. Thompson, junior
sycamore. The meeting was cordial
one, the past great sachem having pre-
viously met the great incohonee in the
Great Council. The party was escorted to
Prices Hotel, where lunch was served.
In the afternoon the great incohonee,
accompanied by a number of prominent
Red Men, went TO the council cham Der in

The council chamber, one of the best ap-

evergreens, and beautiful shken banner,

breeze from one of the windows.

at $40 Harrison street, is an unpretentious
building in which are over go little chill
dren for whom Christmas would have no
charms were it not for the efforts of num-
ber of large-hearted ladies. 1t is the San
Francisco Nursery for Homeless Children.
Into this home are received little ones
whose early experience with the world is
anything but pleasant. The nursery re-
ceives, shelters and maintains all aban-
doned children regardless of SEX national
ity or religion.
The efforts of the managers are already
taxed. but for all that they cannot bear to
have their little charges pass over these
pleasant holidays with troubled hearts be-
cause fate has failed to bless them as it
does the other little ones. Laura Wells,
the president of tho Girls Auxiliary who
have undertaken this noble work, requests
the friends of the institution to assist in
making the children happy. Donations of
money, bedding, clothing. food and gifIs
for the Christmas tree would be thankfully
received. Donors should send their gifts
before noon to-day either to Miss Wells at
2l1S Pacific avenue or to the nursery at
507 Harrison street.

tervention of the Sunday upon which fell
April 30 plays an important part in de-
termining when the period of delinquency
commenced and the time for payment
ended. The Supreme Court holds that
the same rule which allows of a fourth day
OF grace when the third falls on legal
holiday, or which extends the time for any
payment TO the day after any legal holi.
day which ends the original time, applied
IN Northey's case to his unpaid premium.
The last day April fell on Sunday. 1t
therefore did not count against him, and
its place was taken in the time for pay
ment by the Monday following, May 1.
Northey died on May l, the last day, ac-
cording to the ruling of the Supreme
Court, upon which he could pay his pre-
MUM without being delinquent, although
1t was the first day CT the month upon
which the payment was delinquent. AS he
was not actually delinquent, therefore at
the time of his death, his policy became
payable Immediately upon the happen
ing OF that event, and so, it is practically
ordered, Mrs. Northey may recover the
