A Crowded House Greeted the
Brilliant Sonestress
Last Night.
P.ay-d Her Own Accompanim mt
While She Sang z,t's "L'Adieu
de l'Hot, s3e Arab"

Golden Gate Hall was crowded last
night by a fashionable and enthusiastic
audience, who came to hear Trebelli sing
her farewell to San Francisco's music
lovers. They were agreeably disappointed,
however. for it was announced during the
course of the evening that owing to nu-
merous requests Mile. Trebelli would give
another series of concerts.
Mile. Trebelli has certainly made her.
self great favorite here, and the more
she sings the moro they seem to want to
hear her. Last evening by request she
sang "Lo, Hark! the Gentle Lark" with
the flute oblicalo by Herr RodemanD, and
was compelled to repeat it by the persist
ent applause Of the delighted audience.
The prima donna proved herself an ex-
cellent accompanist as we'll as brilliant
songstress. The seventh number was a
chanson Arabe, "L'Adieu de PHotesse
Arabe." by Bizet. and TrebellI, seating
herself at the piano, played her own &C.
compartment in manner that won for
her a dou BILE amount OF applause. Her
Last Rose of Summer" was beautifully
rendered, and when for an encore Auber' S
Laughing Song" was repeated many
ladies ruined gloves in vain effort TO

and Mile. Trebelli sang one of mis- songs
for an encore. Miss Van der Nailen and
Mr.. Sauvet played l. de Kontskfs ar
range ement of Meyerbeers Lies Hugue-
nots' in a most acceptable manner. The
Misses Hush's violin and pano duets
were most enjoyable features of the con-

weeks ago he was looked upon as being
distinctly in the race, but when the votes
were counted his share was exactly S04.
With the exception of H. D. Tacott, the
Republican nominees for C0uncilmen-at-
Large were elected aS were also the party
nominees for School Directors and Library
Trustees. In the Fiftn Ward two en- thusi-
astic Republicans, Frank NJ. PARCELS and
DR.. w. 0. Buckland, divided the Republi-
can vote of 646 between them, and, conse-
Quently, a. Fipush, a Democrat. captured
the plum with 392voles. The Sixth Ward
proved to be 4 conundrum.
E. G. Buswell, who IS known TO fame as
the man who brought several suits TO test
the Legality of the railroad charging fare
on Seventh street, received 120 votes,
while smiling Billy Watkinson, the
Southern Pacific yardmaster who went
out in the fight of three years ago and has
never been taken back, received the sup
port of 646 voters, and will reclaim his
seat in the Council, which he has held for
four years.
The smallest vote accorded to any one

for holding street meeting without hav-

the Mayor and the Chief of Police, as re-
quired by the ordinance.
Over year ago the same question was
brought up by the arrest Of w. Sherwood,
a. member of the Salvation Army, who
was arrested for violating the same ordi-
nance. Sherwood was released on habeas
corpus, which was allowed to slum ber in
the Superior Court. A few days ago, when
London was arrested, Sherwood's case was
called up. the writ denied and he was re-
manded into custody.
Sherwood was out of the Jurisdiction of
the court at the time, and the general i'm
preston was that Sherwood would not re-
turn. To the surprise of everybody he
surrendered himself into custody to-day
for the purpose OF laying the foundation
to have the matter heard by the Supreme
Court on writ OF habeas corpus which
will determine the validity of the ordi-
nance.
Several months ago near the City Hall
there was a pretty park, and during the
exciting times when every body was talk

because they could not get hold of any
than for any principle that was involved
in their color, sections of the park were
ruined by the frequent gatherings of those
who felt the burden laid upon tnem to ad-
just National finances. The officials at
the City Hall careo great deal more for
the little green park than for the nightly
and daily heated arguments that took
place around the band stand and which
had the effect OF wearing off the grass.
The ordinance was revived and street
meetings were forbidden except from the
City Hall steps. The gardener sowed some
grass seed, and it was hoped that the con.
stitutional right OF free speech had been
settled.
This was not the case, for the CITY Hall
steps recently became too small to accom-
modate all those whose mission is to con-
vert the sinner from his evil way or to en-
Tighten citizens on the political situation,
and so Mr.. London again got on the grass
and was arrested. He defended himself
so ably in the Police Court that the jury
disagreed, and be will have another trial
In the meantime the case of Sherwood
may be decided, and Oakland orators will
know whether they may or may not use
the public domain for rostrum.

COUNCILMEN BY wARDs
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
9OS Broad way, March s.

The complete returns of the election
were known early this morning and they
show that the Republicans can throw the
Board of Public Works. That body will
a. constituted of Mayor Thomas, City
Attorney Dow, Republicans and Il. N.
Clement Democrat.
Yesterdays work prod many sur
prises. Captain Thomas only won out in
his fight for Mayor by about 10G votes over
Mayor Davle. w. A. Dow ran very close
to T. r. Garrity for City Attorney until
the last precincts were received and only
had 249 votes more than was necessary to
insure his election.
The deieat of Arthur w. Wilson, the
Republican candidate for City Engineer,
was not surprise. Mr.. Wilson antago-
nlZed many OF the elements that
caused his election two years ago and
seemed so certain of his reelection that
he did not take reasonable precautions 10
insure their friendship. Although his
vote is nearly twice as large as that of two
wears ago it was still more than 800 too
little to reach that given TO r. NJ. Gle
ment.
Mr.. Wilson was whispered to death
for several NJ mem bers of the police and fire
departments have been doing their ut
most to defeat his Te-el lection, because of
the many manifestations of favoritsm
that have been shown i'll those depart
ments and credited rightly or wrongly to
Mr.. Wilson.
The campaign against the saloons ended
very differently rom what was expected.
The saloon men themselves we're the most
surprised people in the city when they
learned that the effort 10 close them out
had been lost by over 1890 votes. In
speaking of the matter to-day, Rev. Or
Hummer said that the result was very
gratifying, as it was only preliminary
Akirnish. He said that they we're dis
douraged but thought that the fact OF be-
ing a bic to gain nearly 4000 votes out OF
5000 in favor of absolute closing after
campaign of but one week was splendid
work.
There will certainly be many political
sensations during the next month. City
Attorney Peirsol and Mayor Davie, who
will go out of Office, have always been
bitter political antagonists. Pelrsoi has
