MCKINLEY'S VAR RECORD.

While very much has been said in
regard to the history and the charac-
ter of President Mckinley, we have
never seen much said about his war
record, though this was remarkably
excellent. Like many of the youth
full patriots he enlisted when almost
mere boy, at the age of sevente en-
years. When the war broke out he
was teaching school, but he soon left
and enlisted as a private. His first
colonel was William S. Rosecrans,
afterwards major general and com
mander of the Army of Tennessee
and the Cumberland. Stanley Ma
thews was lieut.. colonel. of his regi
ment and Rutherford B. Hayes major
a regiment which furnished two pres
ideuts, Justice of the Supreme Court
and many other prominent men. His
merits as a soldier were soon recOg-
nized and he was made a staff officer,
receiving promotions from time to
time, until he reached the rank of
major. He served more than four
years. He was recommended for pro-
motion by Hayes, Gen. Crook and
Gen. Hancock. He was in thirty
battles, having many known hair
breadth escapes and thousands of
unseen dangers. His life seems to
have been spared for other and still
more important uses.

The care of guns is matter Of much
Importance. At the same time but few
persons understand how to take care OF
guns in the easiest and most effective
way. Many people go to unnecessary
labor in caring for their guns, and then
perhaps have their guns spoiled after
all their labor and time. 1t is a very
easy and simple matter TO prevent "a gun
from rusting inside if the proper course
is taken. The best way is never to wet
or dampen the gun inside after firing
the last shot, either at target or game,
but in place of a damp or wet rag use q
rag or bristle brush with plenty of good
OIL The brush Or rag should not fit too
tight to the bore. Run through two OF
three times, put the gun away day OF
two to give the oil time TO loosen what
dirt may be in the gun and then wipe
the dirt out with a dry rag and put in
a new rag with little oil on it.

tween the hands TO get out the water,

when the garment is nearly dry, press it

Mr.. DobbertIn got his idea o, the knock
out both FROM the papers and from eye-
witnesses who graphically portrayed by
word of mouth the effects of the terrible
hook blow of Fitz,immons.
The sculptor was vividly impressed by
what he heard of the defeat of the Hayes
Valley champion. 1t reminded him, he
says. of the forcefui representation of the
dying glad iator by Story, but he saw in

no time in getting to work on the idea.
The result is that he has magnificent
bust of the famous hero Of the fistIc arena.
Some touches need 10 be added, as for in
stance. the hair is not completely pompa-
doIred and some other points require q
little changing perhaps, but generally the
idea is we'll execui led. The statue is not

William Keith thinks it a very fine thing.
Quite a number of people who have

Among other things which Mr.. Dobber-
tin is working on is lifeslze bust Of the
laie Fred Hinckley, husband of Florence

aid of death masque and photographs.

Hinckley. Friends OF Mr.. Hinckley are

STUCK WILD PIGS
AND GOT FEVER
Mrs. A. Kingman's Thrill
ing Experiences in the
Indian Jungles.
A Round Up of Over Thirty
Tigers by Aid Of Trained
Elephants.
The Mishaps Of Coming Too Close to
the Tusks Of the Pigs-Wi1l Go
to a Hospital.

az have been at many pig-stickings and
have also, at times. been unpleasartly
close to wild tigers of the jungles, when
elephants were being used in the hunt"
said Mrs. A. Kingman of India to CALL
representative at the Russ.
Mrs. Kingman is great traveller and
has been several times around tho world.
Last year she was in Egypt for several
months, and since then she has been at
Calcutta, Simla and at different places on
the Ganges. While in India she caught
the jungle fever, and has not been we'll
since. This is why she has come to San
Francisco, from which she has been away
about nine years.
when l was in India / greatly en-
ioyed the pig-sticking, but was little
afraid of the tiger hunting. The hunting
for tigers is done on elephants, and if
they are not we'll broken there is danger
of them turning and running-stamp ped
ing, as it were. If they do this there is
great danger of being killed. Take these
elephants when they get excited and they
will dash off into the jungle rellmell.
Under such circumstances there is little
hope OF escaping death.
~ remember once that on q hunt of
this sort where elephants were used some
thirty or forty tigers were killed, but the
women always hesitated to go unless they
knew the elephants were well trained.
Now, with pig-sticking it is different.
You can mount your horse and with spear
in hand are quite safe though you do at
times encounter some very ferocious ami
mails. l recall that a very fine horse was
on one occasion cui by the tusks of one of
the wild pigs so that he had to be killed.
Every one regretted the horses death. be-
cause he was such valuable animal.
OF those wild pigs only the males will
fight. The others cannot be goaded to do
so unless their young are in danger of
being molested. Then they will fight TO
beat anything in the world.
"As for the males they will fight all the
time. They are tenacious as bulldogs and
equipped with their sharp incisors and
their terrible tusks they can rip and tear
in a way that is frjght!ul.
ut is exhiarating in the highest degree
to get on good pony and, equipped with
long. sharp spear. go after these ami
mails. In coed hunting ground it takes
no time at all 10 get half dozen or
dozen around you. Then there is fun, but
it is dangerous fun and you must look out.
Sh ould they snap tendon OF your pony's
leg down he will go, and then they will all
make a rush for you.
1T was under circumstances of this
kind that hunted the wild pigs in India.
l always, however, went in company with
others, and generally some OF the officers
from British stations were along. They
are all, as q rule, fine pig-stickers, IS are
the women folks OF their families. We
had an immense amount of amusement
out of it"

ARMY AND NAVY SUPPLIES.

An Effort Made to Have Them Pur-
chased on This Coast.
The member OF the Chamber of Com
merce have for some time past observed
that the q, my and navy officers who have
the purchasing of supplies for these de-
partments OF the Federal Government on
this coast have always sent their orders
for supplies TO Eastern firms.
In fact these officers have completely
ignored the Pacific Coast dealers and
treated San Francisco in particular as
though it wa' a provincial town. This
has been particularly marked in the pur-
chase OF drugs, not single order having
been placed in San Francisco within the
memory of the mem bers of the chamber.
These gentlemen have decided that the
army and navy officers have ignored the
Western firms long enough, and steps
have been taken to bring about change
for the benefit of San Francisco. Within
the past week many letters have been
sent from the Chamoer OF Commerce TO
the Pacific Coast Representatives at Wash
1ngton urging them TO use their influence
with the heads OF departments with the
view of having such upplies as the army
end navy on this coast require purchased
here. There is very strong impre ssion

THEY ALL FEEL EASIER
Supreme Court Decision Nay
B., Blessing in Disguise to
Railroad Men.
All Danger of a Rate War Is New
Believed TO Have
Passed.

Railroad men in this City see light
ahead and safe sailing out of the sea of
trouble created by the recent decision of
the Supreme Court of the United States
holding all pooling and rate-making
arrangements to be illegal. They hope to
find relief in the bill introduced by Senator
Foraker of Ohio on Tuesday.
Ever since the decision in question was
given to the public there have been alarm
ing rumors of a great rate war involving
every railroad competing for interstate
traffic.
There was a general disintegration of
the powerful organizations of the rail
carriers Of the country that gave rise to
fears of rate slashing on scale never
before recorded. The disorganization
apparently meant that each individual
railroad company would enter the field for
all the business il could secure, regardless
of the pre- existing traffic and rate arrange
ments with other roads, and that as a
natural con eauence rates would be cut
right and left
world no such immediate result, how
ever, was anticipated, as was stated in
The CALL. According to the statement of
o prominent official of the Southern Paci-
tic Company there were two strong rea-
sons why rate-cutting would not be in
duged in.
Oae of these, he stated, was the fact
that rates were now as low as they could
be made and return any profit. Another
was that rate cutting, If INDUCED in
at all, to beneht the road such q
means of securing business would have
to be lone in secret and in violation of
the interstate commerce law.
Events have proved the correctness Of
the views OF this gentleman, as little or no
rate-cutting has been reported.
Senator, Foraker's measure, which is
evidently designed to restore order out of
the chaos into which railroad matters
were thrown by the decision of the Su-
preme Court, is believed 10 have the ap-
proval of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
1t permits railroad pooling under GER
tain conditions. Railroad companies are
permitted to enter into pooling agree
ments provided that such agree ments are
in writing and are filed with the commits
sion created by the proposed act and ere
approved by such commission. The COM
mission is given authority to revise or
modify the rates established If investiga-
tion proves such modification is necessary.
The orders and findings of the com mission
are made subject to review by any Circuit
Court of the United States, and appeal
may be taken to he United States Su-
preme Court. Three days notice must be
given for advances and ten day Q for reduc.
tions.
1t is further made lawful for comm on
carriers TO enter into agreements not for
hidden by the fifth section of the inter
state commerce act, in regard to the max
ting and maintaining OF lawful rates pub

grocer, charged with selling adulterated
honey. The defendant, under advice.
however, pleaded guilty and was ordered
to appear for sentence to-day.
The analysis showed that the honey
only contained from TO 6 per cent of glu-
cose, and the Judge advised the food ic-
spectors not to make any arrests where
the percentage OF glucose is so trlfling.
Fred Weker was tried yesterday after
noon before Judge Campbell on a second
charge of manufacturing and selling an
imitation of strawberry syrup. He was
defended by Attorneys Metson and Cole,

Quoted the prosecution. The analysis
showed there was no straw berry nor fruit
of any KIND in the syrup. The defendant
was convicted, and ordered to appear for

lished in separate or joint tariff schedules.
Tar IF Manager Stubbs of The Southern
Pacific is confident that the Foraker bill
will prove a remedy for the ills threatened
by the Supreme Court decision.
Instructions have been issued to the
Ea>tern representatives of the Southern
Pacific Company to withdraw from all as
socia'ions of which that company is a
me IN Der. This course was not taken so
much az a result of the Supreme Court
decision as because so many roads had al
ready withdrawn and so made the associa-
ton virtually useless.
Some fears have been expressed that the
decision which has caused so much unrest
and uncertainty would affect the special
rates announced for the Christian En-.
deavor conventio to te held in this City.
General Passenger Agent Goodman states,
however, that he believes all the roads
will abide by the promises thev made at
the time the rates were announced, and
that the rate of $50 from Chicago for the
round trip will hold.
Unless Congress passes the antl-scal perS
bill, which has ALREADY passed the House,
the Southern Pacific Company will refuse
to make State rates for either the Chris
tian Endeavor convention or the Golden
Gate Carnival.

After having been legally separated by
divorce for four years Orin NJ. Shaft and
Helen S. Shaft have concluded to resume
life's journey in company and hav.

Shaft is q hard-working carpenter who
lives at 1045 Market street. Several wears

in his household, and finally the couple
separated and the wife obta med divorce
on the ground OF desertion. Shaft made
no defense, as he thought it better to live
apart if they could not live together in
harmony.

themselves that promises to assume very
respectable proportions.
The fund stood above the figure of the
day before, even after the men were paid
off last evening. Some 66S men were
given employment yesterday, but even
that large number was more than covered
by the subscriptions. That this state of
affairs shall continue can only result from
the continued activity of the collectors,
however.
The applications for work are continu-
Gus and pathetically persistent. Some of
the men whose brief time has expired,
anu who are expected to give place to
some others, plead SO piteously for an ex-
tension of their time, for few more days
work, that it becomes a most difficult
thing for the committeeman to say no.
The men are stretched out over two
miles of road, and when o'clock blows
they make a run for the paybox to get a
forward place in the line. For it takes
long time to pay off this army and the
first in the line may be at home before
the last reaches the box and gets his
