SERIOUS CHARGES
the Management of the State
Soldiers Home.

Theophil Brodowski of 1917 Mason
street, San Francisco, has filed charges
against the management of the Sol
Giers' Home at Yountville with Gov
error Budd Brodowski's charges are
sworn TO, and he declares that he can
substantiate every one of them.
Brodowsh was en- inmate of the
home under the management of three
Commandants, Major McCleave. Colonel
Dimpfel and General Thompson. and
ia that time he claims to have seen
and heard much which now forms the
subject matter of his charges.
The charges relate to alleged rough
treatment of inmates of the home the
retention of money deposited, etc.
Among other things he complains that
Charles E. Graham, an Adjutant, en-
joys extraordinary privileges at the
home. and that the inmates were
forced to contribute money for the rur-
chase of a bicycle for his daughter.
He says further that Treasurer Currier
has thousands of dollars on deposit in
bank, money left by deceased veterans.

AN A. P. A. MASS MEETING.
State President HudeISOn Delivers an
Address.
Declares the Catholics Are Un-Amer-
lean and Defends His Own
Character.

Several hundred people assembled at
Pythian Castle last evening to hear
State President B. F. Hudelson of the
American Protective Association deliver
his promised speech.
The closest attention was paid the
speaker throughout, and ait times he
was warmly applauded. In appearance
Hudelson is not at all attractive, but he
is an easy speaker and has a good voice.
c. E. Adams acted as President of the
meeting, while c.. M. Odell, J. H. Stub
bins, H w Cass and DR.. H. H. Look
were named Vice-Presidents and occu-
pied seats upon the stand.
Mr.. Adams, before introducing the
speaker of the evening, reverted to the
action of the City Board of Trustees in
refusing the use of the Plaza for the
occasion, and asserted that the park
should be free to a body of men who
claimed to be as good American citizens
as any in the land. He was cheered,
and then introduced State President
Hudelsonl
The gentleman commenced his address
by remarking that he had been branded
by the City Board of Trustees as not be-
Ing an American, but the man who had
so branded him was born in Ireland.
His (HudelSon's) forefathers, he as
serted, were among the first settlers of
jamestown, and he was certainly a
pretty good American. If the names of
individuals We're to count in American
citizenship, he would place turning to

schools We're the best in the land, it was
no more than justice that they be
thrown open to the general public.
From an eminent churchman the lee
turer read statement to the effect that
no one in the world was SO utterly de-
fenSelesS as Catholic nun. In the face
of that statement, he said, it was only
just that the people of California should
demand a bill passed through the next
Legislature to open to official public in
vestigation each one of the nunneries on
the coast. He deprecated the thought
that he aimed to cast reflections upon
any one of those women or upon any in
dividual Catholic, but inveighed against
the principle which allowed any class Of
American citizens to live entirely with
out protection.
The speaker next addressed the old
soldiers, and told them that the same
Congress which had voted money to the
Catholic institutions voted to cut down
their pensions, and that the same Con-
greSSmen who had so voted had gone
back to their constituents and asked to
be reelected on their records. About
120 of them were elected-to stay at
home.
But the Roman Catholic Church is not
the only denomination which received
appropriations for sectarian purposes,
the speaker said, and then called
shame" upon those Protestant denom-
nations which 50 offended. He believed
hospitals, etc, could be just as cheaply
conducted by the State as by any
church, and was honest in the Lelief that
to the State should be given the appro-
priations instead of to the churches.
The speaker hooted at the idea that he
had been bought by John D. Spreckels,
and stated that had such been the case
he would now be at home enjoying him.
self instead of talking his life out max
iGg campaign speeches. No man in the
world, he declared, could sell fifty or
sixty Thousand freemen, and he could
not sell the A p. A. S of the State. He
had never sold himself to Spreckels, but
had been threatened by a number OF
men who said they would ruin him un-
less he visited Spreckels and negotiated
loan upon a gold brick mining scheme
If he had been bought, or the A P. A. s
had been bought, they would continue
to be bought until the Crimminses and
the Keilys and the Buckleys and the
BurnseS were all turned out of State
Conventions, as had been the Buckley
ties at a recent convention. These were
the men, he declared, who had made the
charges, and the charges were as false
as the men themselves
In conclusion, the speaker enjoined
his hearers to be true to themselves, true
to the public school system. true to the
Constitution, true to American institu-
tions, and if they We're so, they would
just as certainly believe in the princi-
pies of the American Protective Asso-
citation.
AT the conclusion of the address three
cheers and a tiger were given for the
speaker, after which America" was
sung by those present and the meeting
adjourned.

WHEEL NOTES.
Evening Drills, Stockton Excursion
and the Speed Contests.

Nearly seven months ago the CapitaI
City Wheelmen made arrangements for
a day of road racing among it's own
members, and number of prizes were
offered and medals hung up. The day
was set on three dates and every time
bad weather interfered and compelled
postponement. Then came the Sacra-
mento and Stockton relay race, and the
wheelmen wearied of getting into con-
dition and then suffering a postpone
ment. The matter has now been re-
vived, and it has been resolved to have
the club contests worked off at an early
day and the prizes awarded.
AT Agricultural Park last night a large
body of club wheelmen went through
drill exercises under command of Secre-
tary Sheehan. The movements were
very successfully made, and one new one
moving in hollow square-was intro
duced. There was a crowd of spectators
interested in watching the men drill
The drills will be held every evening this
week, beginning al Z sharp and closing
at 5. 1t is desired that all members of
the club who possibly can do so will en-
gage in these pleasing exercises.
The railroad company has replied TO a
committee of the Capital City Wheelmen
in response to the club request that it
viii convey club members and their
guests to Stockton on the 9th of August
and return for a spot sum that will
amount to 81 10 a head, and the COM
pany will furnish an extra car for car
riage of the wheels. The provso is that
at least sixty shall subscribe to 60
Wheelmen who wheel down can return
on this train, however, for the same
fare. If 120 (enough for two carloads)
subscribe the rate will be 81 So per head
It is necessary, therefore, that all who
wish to go should hand in their names
at the club meeting next Monday night
or during the week, to F. T. Dwyer
Chairman of the Transportation Com
mittee, or to President Ennis or Secre-
tary Sheehan. Unattached wheelmen
and wheelwomen can avail themselves
Of this privilege as guests of the club, SO
that it is really open to all worthy peo
pie of the wheel A limited number of
non wheelmen will be taken into the ex-
cursion party. The train by which the
excursion win go, if enough sign, will
leave at 4 O'Clock in the morning, getting
the party to Stockton for breakfast, and
will return at > in the afternoon reach
ing Sacramento in time for supper The
club is very desirous of securing enough
subscribers to fill two coaches, and thus
reduce the rate to 81 50 for the round
trip.
Much interest is being awakened con-
cerning the blue ribbon contests at the
Pavilion on Friday night and the prom
ise is that there will be a very large at
tendance, and certainly that there will
be varied and interesting entertainment.
The wheelmen are very anxious to save
the Pavilion track for winter use. and it
viii depend upon the success of Friday
nights entertainment whether this will
be done.
