SORROW OF A BEGGAR.
Mrs. Bonnet Produced in Court-De-
 serted by Her Companion.

Mrs. Octavia Clarisse Lapierre Bonnet is no longer counted with the missing. Neither Is she in hiding or the prisoner of those who would do her harm. The habeas corpus proceedings instituted by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children against Joseph Bisson of Ill Trenton street commanding him to pro- duce Mrs. Bonnet in court proved of avail Bisson was charged with having spirited the aged organ grinder away, but the charge was not substantiated. Nevertheless it had it's effect, and when, in compliance with the order made by Judge Hebbard, few days ago, Bisson appeared in court yesterday morning, Mrs Bonnet was by his side.
 Bisson testified that the old woman went to his home some time ago and asked to be given shelter. He did so, and since that time has provided for her. Mrs. Bisson, her frame bent under the weight of years, next took the stand. She corroborated Bisson's story. She was deserted by Leonard Bonnet, with whom she had lived and toiled for twenty six years, she said. He gave away the fur and with their joint savings, amounting to several thousand dollars, departed for France. The organ she used to grind for a living had also been given away by her companion and was now in the posses sion of Bisson. She asked that it be re- turned to her and Judge Hebbard so or dered. By consent of all parties the old woman was placed in care of Blanche Gaffe until such time as guardian can be appointed for her. The police in New York are on the lookout for Bonnet, and should he be found he will be arrested and returned to this city for having le- wanted with a sack of gold, oDly half of which belongs to him.

SHAMEFUL NEGLECT.
Remains of Private Wheeler Sent From One Place to An- other for Several Days
 RefOre Tpferr,,ept

The body of Private Wheeler. First California, who died on the 18th inst from pneumonia. has at last found It's resting place. For four days 1t has been banded about from one, hospital to an- other, and from the headquarters of one regiment to another, and at each place burial was denied it, and for no other reason than that no officer remained of the First California to attend to the de- tails of the obsequies.
 On Thursday General Miller learned of the delayed funeral and he imme- diately ordered the chaplain and a firing squad from the Kansas volunteers to re- pair to the Presidio and there give the body fit interment, but when the squad arrived at the Presidio plat the body had disappeared. It was unceremoniously placed at General Miller's Camp Merritt headquarters an hour later. From there 1t was taken to the dead room of the French Hospital, where it remained until yesterday morning, when chaplain and firing squad from the First Tennessee carried it to the Presidio National Ceme- tery and finally laid it to rest.

Fiftv-First Iowa.

The efforts of the Women's Relief Corps, under whose auspices the mili- tary drill and entertainment will be held this evening at the Mechanics Pavilion are meeting with great success. The tenting of the soldiers and the sham at tack on the encampment, being different from anything that has heretofore beer given, is the feature that seems to be in teresting the public, and which promises along with the other exercises, to fill the Pavilion to overfowing.
 The songs, '"Tenting on the Old CamI Ground" and Just Before the Battle Mother" to be rendered in chorus, prom ise to be very effective, and, under the circumstances, will be appreciated as they have not been since the days of '63

 The Red Cross Society has applied to General Merriam for a conyalescent hos pital at the Presidio. This hospital Is intended for the full recuperation of con valescents before returning to duty. The idea is approved by General Merriam and he will probably see that 1t IS car ried out.

 The object of Colonel Barber's depart ure in advance of his regiment is to se- lect a site for a permanent garrison at Honolulu. In determining a location he will consult with his quartermaster, sur geon and engineering officer. AS soon as they arrive they will select a place for temporary encampment somewhere with in the city limits. The permanent garri- son will be erected probably in the VI cinity of Diamond Head, which commands the entrance to the harbor.
 Colonel Barber said: T have received orders to select a site for permanent garrison at Honolulu. It will be neces- sary to have a capable engineer pass upon the selection in order that no future diff faculties may arise when 1t comes to the construction of works and Notifications. The engineering phases will rest with Major Lansing, who Is an old friend of mine. Dr. Griffiths will pass upon the sanitary qualifications. Just what will be the ultimate destination of the First New York 1 am at a loss to say. Our chances of reaching Manila are very slim from the present aspect. I judge we will permanently garrison the island. AS l understand it I will be practically in charge. l hope my men will get along as we'll In Hawaii as they have here.
