A GRANT MONUMENT.

The desigu for monument TO the mem
ory OF General Sherman has been selected
and although, strange to say, it did not
obtain the approval OF the artists whom
the committee appointed to choose it
took into consultation, yet it must be
taken for granted that the monument Will
be in every way worthy or its subject. IN
due time the people will be able To pass
judgment upon the selection just made.
Monuments for Sheridan and Sherman be-
ing now provided for, it is time that Grant
-princepS inter principles should be 10
longer neglected. A bill appropriating
$500, 900 for a suitable memorial to the
great commander is pending in the House
ana it ought to become a law before this
session Of Congress is adjourned.
Against the proposition no objection Will
be raised. The North reveres the memory
OF Ulysses $. Grant because of his great
war record, because he Brought to a close
the intcrnecine strife, because he sue
ceeded where others had failed. The
South holds Grant in loving remembrance
because when the Confederacy collapsed
at Appomattox Courthouse he was great
enough to be kind and generous in the
hour or his victory and triumph. He is
one of the heroic figures in the pantheon
Of American history, and no monument
can be too costly that will perpetuate
IN form pleasing to the eye the memory
Of the leader of the armies OF the Union.
A million of dollars win not be too
much money for such a memorial as
ought to be erected to Gen. Grant ut the
Capital of the Nation. But one-half of TIE
amount. as has been heretofore suggested
by The Times, ought to be raised by the
veterans of the war, for his glory is theirs
also There is not the least doubt that
in less than Il year the old soldiers could
get the half million to put with the Con-
gressional appropriation, and then fund
would be in existence with which one of
the graDdest memorials of modern times
could be procured. In order that no diff
ficulty may arise in fusing the appropria-
ton and contributions, clause might be
inserted in the bill authorizing the ac-
ceptance by the government of all sums
collected for this purpose before GER
tain date. A monument to Gen. Grant
should have been reared in this city long
ago, and now that a beginning has been
made with that end in view the matter
should be carried forward with all possible
dispatch.

OLD But EVER NEW.
This Story Good Enough 10 Bear

There is an old story. but good one, OF
two painters who were employed To frcsco
the walls OF a cathedral. and both stood on
a rough scaffolding constructed for the
purpose some forty feet from the floor.
One Of them was so intent upon his work
that he became wholly absorbed. and in ad-
mlraton stepped back from the picture.
gazing Al it with intense delight Forget
ting where tie was. nc moved still further
back. surveying the work of bis brush,
until he had ncared the edge of the plank
upon which he stood.
At this critical moment his companion
turned suddenly, and, almost frozen with
horror, hchcld his imminent peril. An
other instant and the artist would be
precipitatcd upon the pavement beneath.
If be spoke TO him, IL was certain death;
If he held his peace. death WAS equally sure.
Suddenly he regained his presence of
mind, and, seiZiDg wet brush, he flung it
against the wall, spattcring the beautiful
picture with unsightiy blotchcs OF coloring.
The painter flew forward, and turned upon
his friend with fierce upbrajdings; but
startled at Ills CHASTITY face, he listened
TO his recital or danger, looked shudder-
ingly over the dread space below, and,
with tears of gratitude, blessed the hand
that saved his life.

SENIOR CLASS TAKES ACTION.
A Unanimous Decision Against Gradua-
tion at Berkeley-A Meeting
Yesterday.

The senior class OF Hastings Law Col
iege has grievance against the Berkeley
alumni and is appointing committees and
adopting resolutions in consequence.
AT a meeting of the class yesterday
alumni at Berkeley is attempting to ex-
clude the Hastings graduates from men,
bership in the alumni of the University
of California. The Berkeley alumni were
severely criticized for their action.
Stephen L. Sullivan, the president of
the class, appointed committee for the
purpose of drawing up resolutions embody-
ing the sentiments of the class, as ex-
pressed at the meeting.
The question whether it is advisable for
the law department classes to graduate at
Berkeley was taken up, and 1t was unani.
mously decided that the present senior
class should not go across The bay for grad
uation.
Considerable feeling was expressed in
regard to the Berkeley attempt to deprive
the law department graduates of their
right to membership in the alumni asso-
citation of the university, and it was de.
termined to take up the issue in forcible
manner and insist on the rights of the
law graduates. The matter will be brought
before the university members in the reso-
lutions of the senior class, and the gradu-
ates of Hastings college will be urged to
declare in favor of rights or alumni mem
bership.
Another meeting of the law class viii
be held this week for further action in the
matter.

Mrs. Helen NJ. Cougar addressed large
audience at the Young Mems Christian
Association on, "Give Us Work or Give Us
Bread; or A Way Out for the Unem-
ployed," last evening. The lady said:
thank God for organized labor in this coun-
try. [Applause.l 1t means intelligent labor
1t means better conditions for workingmen.
Nothing happens. Everything is an effect of
some moving cause. You all have some idea
of the cause of the hard times. The good Re-
publican brother for instance, thinks it is the
tariff But do you know that the difference
between the Mckinley and Wilson bills is
ST.. 900 of revenue?
in America, the National Protective Associa-
ton OF Liquor Dealers, said at the time of
Republican triumph: ''We will be safe as long
as the two parties are twisting each others
ears over tariff" The same statement was re-
peated when Democrats triumphed. You may
not know it, but while you have been wrangling
over tariff the liquor king, with head in
England, has been voting every mother son
of you.
Politicians have insisted in bringing for
ward that old cadaver, tariff, when they
should busy themselves in lowering the single
gold standard.

MOLLENHAUER'S SOLOS.
The vio1inist Plays Paganini Variations
With the Symphony Orchestra.

Z
With the Symphony Orchestra.
Beethoven's "Firsr Symphony" was the
chief orchestral feature of the concert
given by the San Francisco Symphony
Orchestra Friday afternoon in Golden
Gate Hall. The performance of the work
was heartily applauded by large and evil
IDENTIFY critical audience.
The overture to Schubert's "Rosa-
munde" was played by the orchestra with
expression and finish. The performance
of Saint-Saens' "Danse Macabre" would
have been benefited by more rehearsal,
though Bernhard Mollenhauer, the first
violin, labored heroically to hide the fact.
Any little shortcomings in the "Danse
Macabre,' however, were more than
atoned for by the rendering given to the
toreador aria from Bizet's Carmen" This
ever-popuIar selection was played so
crisply and brightly that the conductor,
James Hamilton Howe, was warmly ap-
plauded before the audience consented to
depart for the Carmen number was the
last on the programme.
The soloists were Bernhard Mollen hauer
and Mrs. Leckle S. Reynolds. The former,
who PLAYED Paganini's variations upon the
air IN el Cor Piu, received quite an ovation
Mr.. Mollenhauerc competed remarkably vel
with the immense technical difficulties ot
the piece; at times they were overwhelm-
ing enough to bluut his attack little, but
ON the whole his exhibition of virtuosity
well deserved the delighted plaudits it re-
ceived. AS an encore Mr.. Moilenhauer
played '.Berceuse" by Sauret tenderly
and mpathetically, though with slight
Indifference here and there as to intona-
ton.
Mrs. Leckie s. Reynolds would no doubt t
have appeared to better advantage in a
modern song, for her singing of Handel s
"He Was Despised" from "The Messiah :"
showed that she scarcely possessed the
dignity and breadth of style requisite for
oratorio work.

THEIR MATINEE CONCERT
Ondricek and Materna Again
Arouse Plaudits at the
Auditorium.
The Violinist's Wonderfully Charac.
teristic Rendering of Hungarian
Airs,

Ondricek and Materna repeated their
success of Thursday evening at the matt
nee concert given in the new Auditorium
yesterday. There was large audience,
and the enthusiasm displayed was posi-
lively ardent in its warmth.
Ondricek invaded the severely classical
repertory more than he had done on the
opening night, for he played romance in
G major by Beethoven and an air by Bach.
These pieces, however, were more tastes
than solid classical meals, and one would
have to hear the brilliant Bohemian at
greater length to Judge whether he excels
as much in Bach and Beethoven as he
does IN characteristic work, such as
Ernst's Hungarian Airs"
In characteristic work Ondricek is SIM
ply magnificent; the Ernst airs, for in
stance, were not only played with astonish-
ing technique, but with the verve and senti-
ment that are SO characteristic of the Hun
garian music. The player almost trans
ported his hearers into state of Hunga-
rian rhapsody as they listened, and at the
end their qualification broke out in pro-
longed applause.
The Max Bruch concerto in G minor
was splendidly rendered by. ondricek. and
| Isidore Luckstone, the pianist, showed
| him self to be thoroughly sympathetic
collaboration. The romance. which pre-
ceded the "Moto Perpetuo" by Rles,
| showed especially how delicate are the vio
| linst's nouapces, and the 'Moto" was an
exhibition of brilliant technical skill. AS
an encore he played 'Legende' by
| Wieniawski. A Tarantelle by Ondricek
proved to be remarkably effective COM
position as he himself played it, though il
| tamely rendered it would probably be
shorn of most Of its charm,
Frau Amalia Materna again showed her
self to be phenomenal artist. In spite Oh
the years of work it has gone through her
marvellous voice shows no signs OF wear in
the high tones. She sings with purity
and reserve which assures one immedi-
ately that never will Materna attempt what
she cannot execute with more than ease.
The art of her singing, in fact is no less
remarkable than the volume and resonance
of her voice.
Yesterday Materna gave an aria from
"Rienzi,' an opera which many Wag-
nerians regard with scorn and contumely,
but which gives vocalists more opportuni-
ties for the display Of 'school" than many
of the composers later works. Inresponse
to most determined demand for an en-
core the prima donna sang "Mein Bote. "
The grand aria from "La Juive" was an.
other splendid piece of vocal work achieved
by the prima donna.
A grand popular concert will be given
tonight at the New Auditorium by the
Ondricek- -Materna combination.
