CAPrAIN mORsEs LECTURE.
Entertains Large Audience at Pioneer
Hall. ...+-. rs

Captain III. G.. Morse, the pop
uIar navigator, was the lecturer at
Pioneer Hall last night in the fifth
of the Lick series of lectures, says
the San Francisco Chronicle of
Feb. 5. The subject was ga Trip
to Samoa" Captain Morse lab
ored under disadvantages. He has a
great breadth of beam, but the
quarter deck of the stage appor-
toned to his use was too narrow
a mainsail, on which was thrown
the stereopticon views, being made
fast too far aft. Then his electric
signal to the chief engineer of the
stereopticon was frequently mis-
understood. When Captain Morse
would ring $50 ahead, Pic
ture," the engineer would
throw the lights on. When the
captain would signal for slight"
the artist would cast the shadow
of dusky maiden or warrior on
the mainsail. Finally, in despair,
the captain ordered him to ''fall to
with pictures" and the lecture
proceeded more smoothly.
Captain Morse had also to
cover measured course in an
hour and fifteen minutes, but he
did not make as good time as he
expected. He started in on San
Francisco boy in 40 and wound
up with discussion of missionary
labors in the South-sea islands.
The lecture was regular mosaic
of history, anecdote and wit.
When the Captain wanted new
text some one of the audience
would suggest one, and then the
captain would take a new tack.
When he at last squared away for
his home port, and having drop
ped his anchor in safety, he was
greeted with round after round of
hearty applause.

Orders From England Will Not

Future.
CHEER THE ANNOUNCEMENT.
The Commander Enthusiastically Re-
ceived at the HeadQuar ters
in New York.

NEW YORK, MY, Feb. 23.-Com-
mander Ballington Booth of the Salvation
Army last night announced to the mem
bers OF his staff that he had decided not to
relinquish command of the army in the
United States, and that under no circum-
stances would he take orders from Eng
land. This was taken to mean that he will
reorganize the army in this country on an
independent basis, and it was received
with cheers and other demonstrations of
approval.
Commander Booth appeared at the army
headquarters last evening and held a
council of war with his staff superintend-
ents and declared it his intention not 10
reIinquish his command until compelled
to do SO. Colonel Alexander N. Nicol, the
personal representative of General Booth
in the present difficulty and Colonel
Eadie, who has assumed to exercise the
authority of acting commander, were
called to the council-room and given TO
understand the commanders posit ion.
They went into his presence pale and
trembling and they emerged from the
room looking very much troubled.
During the session a message was re-
ceived, purporting to come from London,
TO the effect that Commander and Mrs. +.
de la Tour Booth-Tucker had been APP
pointed to succeed Mr. and Mrs. Balling-
ton Booth in the United States. This was
promptly bulletined by Mr.. Nicol, but its
truth was denied by Commander Booth

terly Denounced.

PLYMOUTH, Eng, Feb. 22.-The Brit
ish steamer Harloch Castle, from Port
Natal January %, arrived here at $3.50
O'Clock this morning, having on board 305
troopers, who took part in DIR. Jameson's
raid into the Transvaal and who were
compelled to surrender to the Beers.
These men were turned over to the
English authorities by the Boer Govern
ment, and the former ordered that they
be brought to England. The officers of
the expedition, including DR.. Jameson,
are on the transport Victoria, which is ex-
pected to arrive some time during the
night. Among the men on the Harloch
Castle six were sick.
Shortly before IL 80 o'clock a tender
went alongside the Harloch Castle. The
troopers were all mustered on the deck of
the steamer and their transfer to the ten
der was quickly accomplished. 1t was
thought that much enthusiasm would be
displayed on their arrival here, as there is
scarcely a doubt that their raid, illegal
though it was, caused much popular ad-
miration in England.
The fact did not bear out expectation.
There was no crowd present TO witness
their Standardization from the tender, and
there was no cheering.
A majority of the troopers were attired
in the police uniform of the British South
Africa Company, but number of them
wore nondescript garments. Overcoats
and other clothing suitable to this climate
were supplied to them, and they then looked
far more comfortable than they did in the
early morning. They are hardy looking
! lot OF men. Their ages range from 20 to
35 years. Many of them belong to some
of the first families in England, havin g
gone to South Africa, where they could do
work. Had they worked here it would
have caused them to be looked down upon
by their acquaintance.
| The repre- sentative of the United Press
interviewed a number of the men. Their
stories of the fight, which ended in their
| surrender at Krugersdorp, varied widely.
| Some OF them stated that when they sur
rendered to the Boer force their ammuni-
| ton had been exhausted, while others
| declared that there was no lack of ammu-
| milton.
| They all agreed that the Beers lost from
10 to 200 men killed, though this has been
| denied by the Beers themse Ives One of the
complaints that has been repeatedly made
| against the Beers method of warfare is
that they will not face their foes in the
open, hiding behind trees and rocks and
IN gullies and picking off the enemy with
out themselves being seen. If they fol-
lowed this method in their attack on Jane
sons force-and it has been repeatedly
stated that they did-it is nard to under
stand how their loss could have been as
heavy as the troopers claim. One of the
men, however, said that he had seen the
official Boer return of their dead and it
| showed that 182 were killed.
In one particular all the troopers were
in hearty agreement and that was in de,

The First Train Will Go Over
the Big Structure This
Morning.
TRACK-LAYING TO BE RUSHED
CALIFORNIA; Competing Railroad Ex-
poets to Enter Fresno by June
of This Year.

STOCKTON, CAL, Feb. 23-Unless
Division Engineer Mcfarland has some
reason for postponlng the event another
day or two the first train of the San Fran
cisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway
Company will cross the Stanislaus River
and enter Stanislaus County early to-
morrow morning.
This is looked upon as an event of con-
Siderable Importance and some of the Off
cias and directors of the road will prob
ably go down on the construction. train to
inspect the big bridge. Its entire length
is $40 feet and the big middle span that
stretches from the heavy piers on each
side of the waterway is $50 feet in length.
The structure is built of very heavy tim
bers and braced by steel rods. 1t has
taken lots of time and money to build and
has, in measure. delayed the work of
trackIaying south of the river.
Stockton people remember when the
hope of man for the realization of the Val
ley Road project ran no further than the
Stanislaus. "Wait till they reach the
river" it was said. Well, the track
reached the river some weeks ago, and
there it halted, at distance of twentv-six
miles from this city, until the bridge
should be completed. Now the bridge is
finished and will be crossed to- morrow.
Then the tracklaying will go on with un-
diminished speed, and by June it is ex-
pected that Fresno will be reached.
The officials who are to cross the Stanis.
laus River bridge tomorrow morning
may in after years look back 20 this day
and remember with not little gratitica-
ton. perhaps, that they were the first men
to cross the big bridge. But they will al
ways have to qualify their boast by their
gender, for already one member of the
tender sex has walked from San JOAQUIN
into Stanislaus County over these big
tim bers. This was little Emma Long. the
pretty daughter OF Conductor Long. who,
in the future, may also remember with
satisfaction that he was the trst conductor
on the first competing railroad that en-.
tered the San Joaquin Valley.

Commits sfoner and Mrs. Booth Tucker to
Command the Arnly.
NEW YORK, n. T.. Fehs24. This bull
letin was posted to-aight sE the Salvation
Army headquarters on West Fourteenth
street:
NOTICE.
Commissioner and Mrs. Booth-Tucke have been
Ballngton Booth and may be expected to arrive
in this country with all dispatcn.
ALEX NJ. NIcoL, Colonel.
The news came by cable from the inter
national headquarters in London. Com
missioner Tucker is on his way from
India, having accompanied General Booth
thither. Mrs. Tucker, who is General
Booths second daughter, is in London
and may get here earlier than her hus-
band. Commissioner Tucker was at one
time in command of the army in India.
He was formerly Judge in the Indian
civil service and an assistant commits
sioner in that service in the Punjaub
He had done some missionary work
among the natives, when he saw one day
in copy of the London War Cry, an ap-
peal from General Booth for officers to
work in India. He got furlough, went
to London, made himself acquainted with
the armv's work, and then resigned his
appointment 'and went back to India in
1880 as a pioneer of the Salvation Army
work there.

as far as the river. Though the balastlng
of the road is not completed, the construc-
ton train sped along very smoothly at
the rate of between thirty and forty miles
an hour, making stops all along the line
and yet reaching its destination inside OF
forty-tive minutes.
Leaving Stockton, the course is almost
due east, inclinlng little to the south,
running through a rich grain and fruit
country, until the station of Escalon is
reached. Here the road turns more to the
south, and keeps turning until the engine
almost faces the equator-or Fresno,
which is nearer.
Arrived at the bridge several of the party
braved the te1rors of dizziness and
walked partly across the structure. The
only one in the number to reach the STAN
islaus side, however, was Miss Long. For
mile on each side of the river the road
runs through most picturesque country,
rolling and tim bered land, where a good
deal of grading had to be done.
Beyond the river the grading has been
done for ten or twelve miles, and across
Tuolumne and Dry creeks the piles have
been driven and the framework of the
bridges completed. so that all is in readi-
ness for pushing the work of tracklaying
as soon as the construction train crosses
the river. At the material yards in Stock
ton the cars are loaded with rails and ties
and sleepers and spikes and plates and
what not in that line, and these will be
rushed out by Tuesday or Wednesday
morning at the latest, and the Valley Road
will grow in length as no other railroad in
this valley ever grew before.

and his friends. who declared that the dis
patch was bogus and was issued by Eva
Booth, who is in this city, to create false
impression.
Commander Booths statement that he
would not recognize the message as Off
cial was received with applause. 1t was
argued that the message could not be
authentic, because General Booth is not
in London, and would not make an ap-
pointment of such Importance except in
the regular way and from the London
headquarters.
Commandant Booths arrival at head
quarters was entirely unexpected and took
the opposition by surprise. The regular
Sunday evening gospel service was in
xsogress and the large hall was well
crowded.
