pastor of the First Unitarian Church.
Friends from Napa and Petaluma,
where Mr.. Main was identified with the
Fire Department, were present, together
with representatives of nearly all the
leather-dealing firms of this City.

Mr.. Main was born in Boston and came
to this State during the gold fever. Leav-
ing the gold fields he came to this City in
the fifties, and it was at this time that the
firm of Main 81 Winchester was formed.
He continued with this firm, W ich had its
store on the water front on Sansome and
California streets. for few years and then
went to Petaluma, where he organized the
Fire Department in 1852. He bought the
engines and hook-and- ladders, ETC., in fact.
he completely equipped t he department at
his own expense.
He afterward returned to this Citv and
again became identified with the f1rm OF
Main 81 Winchester in which firm he was
trusted and valuable member until the
day of his death.
Magnificent floral tributes were sent by
his many friends. The remains were laid
in the receiving vault of Laurel Hill Gene

is visiting in Guatemala, Central America

somewhat similar, and by certain arrange
ments of instruments there seemed to be
no reason why it could not be used as
stated. "Just how they would go at it, J"
he said, "is, however, beyond my compre-
hension."
Several other dentists were seen, but
few had given any thought to the Roentgen
ray. Many were inclined to look upon the
idea of curing the toothacbe as fake.
Those who did, however, all admitted that
they knew nothing about electricity.
From all that can be learned there IS
certainly hope for those afflicted with
toothache, and many people, in case the
new cure is a success, will no longer be
compelled to pass sleepless nights and con-
stantly jeopardize their chances Tor the
next world. What boon it will be to
many who really suffer, but how many
young men will be deprived OF their best
excuse for ''day off, when the warm
days come and there is an exciting bicycle
race or baseball game going on. On the
other hand, the girls will rejoice at the
discovery OF a sure antidote to candy.

100000 people passed through the gates

land and the valor of Irishmen.
The Celts are making a strong effort to
build suitable hall in San Francisco that
their different societies may find suitable
accommodation under one roof. With
this object in view it is hoped to realize a
large sum from the celebration of st. Pat
rick's day that it may form the nucleus Of
building fund. Already a large number
OF tickets have been sold, as the purpose
of the celebration, apart from the splendid
sentiment attached to it, appeals to the
generosity and good will of all classes of
citizens.
The new hall will be somewhere on
Market street. Several sites have already
been submitted to the committee. When
/ the site is finally chosen plans will be pre-
pared and building that will at once be
an ornament to the City and credit to
the Celtic race will be erected.
The convention having in charge the
arrangements for the celebration of the
day met again at the knights of the Red
Branch hall yesterday afternoon. Thomas
&. Bannerman occupied the chair and
| Secretary Mccormick recorded the min
utes OF the meeting. Reports were re-
celved from the different committees and
1t was shown that the work attending the
celebration was being in no wise neglected.
Captain Jerome Deasy, who is president of
the County board of the A. o. II. reporting
from the committee on printing. said that
the affair had been generally advertised.
]. J. Gildea stated that the music had all
been arranged for and John Mulhern men
toned that all the arrangements had thus

that Judge ]. F. Sullivan had consented
to deliver the Grafton on the occasion and
that II. S. Sutherland, promising young
writer, had prepared poem. Stereopticon
