prised to receive this honor" My being
called upon to speak at this time leads me
to say l am surprised. (Applause), But
I hope, as did the congressman, that l
may meet with yourselves and wives at
your firesides many times in the future
AS look around and see all the old COM

army feel like the old fellow that was
going by a church where a revival was in
progress and heard one of the deacons say
not one in hundred of the people would
be saved Soon after the deacon went in
to the church vestibule and seeing the old
fellow at the door asked him if he
wouldn come in, but the old fellow said
that if only one in a hundred is to be
saved am willing you should have my
chance" (Applause.) "Well, said Judge
Foster, that is the way feel, that some
one else had better have my chance to
speak.
''I like to be present at the reunion of
my comrades. like to meet you all from
year to year and can assure you have
made considerable of an effort to be with
you today. We are growing smaller as an
organization year by year but as the
years go.by we are becoming cemented
more closely together than ever before.
Remember comrades you at one time
promised to protect and uphold your gov

Yesterday.

ming was not down on the programme
During the performance the lion tanner
Boccacio enters cage of three lions and
puts the animals through series of
acts.
The lioness Juno, one of the trio, has
not been in the sweetest temper of
late and she was particularly ill-natured
last night. Catching the tanner off his
guard the beast fastened her yellow
fangs into his left leg with roar that
was frightful to hear. The blood of the
spectators was chilled by the sight, but
with presence of mind which is rather
indispensable in the beast tanning bust
ness, Boccacio turned on the beast with
his whip and beat her off. The encounter
had worked the other two lions up to a
frenzy, but the man managed tosget out
of the cage without further harm. He
tainted soon after being taken out of the
tent, and four deep wounds were found
in his leg. These were cauterized by
DR.. Edwards of the Zoo, and no serious
results are anticipated unless blood
poisoning sets in which isn't likely.
Seven stitches were taken in the wounds.
Against the protests of the manager
Boccacio went into the cage again at 10
O'Clock and compelled Miss Juno to ack-
nowledge her master. The man is one of
the most skilful lion tanners in America
and absolutely fearless.

PRINCE YTURBIDE LOSES.

The court of appeals yesterday, in
Washington, handed down an opinion
in the case Of Prince Augustin de
Yturbide against the Metropolitan
Club. in which the judgment of the
lower court is affirmed.
Prince Yturbide, a citizen Of Mexico,
was elected a member Of the Metro
politan Club in May, 1887 and remain
sd such until May 2, 1896, when he
was expelled by the board OF govern
| ors.
He was notified by the secretary,
Mr.. Arnold Hague, on April %, 1896.
that serious charges had been made
against him, by certain members, Of
conduct upbecoming gentleman, and
that the board Of governors would hear
him in his own defense. When the
hearing was held before the board he
was informed that the charge against
him was that be had accused young
lady, daughter OF q member of the
club, of having written certain anony-
nous letters. He was expelled from
the club.
In his opinion the chief justice says
that the accused member admitted hay
ing said the young lady had written
such letters, and in doing 80 admitted
the main fact In the charge against him,
and it seemed to have been 80 regarded
and acted upon by the board. Mr..
Yturblde claimed that the board de-
clined to permit him to 60 further than
mere statement OF fact. The court
says the main question at issue was
whether such right Of defense was de-
MED him by the board. The court said
that it was somewhat unusual that Mr..
Yturbide did not in his petition for a
writ of mandamus or In his testimony
at the trial OF the case state what the
circumstances were that would justify
his conduct and "acqult him with hon.
or" as he asserts would have been the
case.
Chief Justice Alvey says that these
extenuating circumstances should have
been submitted in the lower court, go
that the jury could have determined
what effect his defense might have had
upon the board Of governors, aud adds:
1T is not shown in any manner wheth
er the facts or circumstances that he
was prevented from stating to the
board of governors were at all pertinent
or material TO the defense. To assume
that they were 30 could only be founded
on mere conjecture"
