 Major General Merriam, commanding the Department of California. will return where he has been engaged for two weeks in disposing of accumulated business of the Department of Columbia, which is also under his Jurisdiction.
 Among the officers of Major General Merritt's staff there are some truly po- lite and affable gentlemen, and there are others" While it is true that news paper men may at times seem two zeal ous in their quest of news, yet they are only performing their duty, disagreeable as it may be at times, owing to the su- perciliouS air of some staff officers who have never been taught what gentility means and who do not comprehend that politeness costs nothing.
 It is a pleasure, however, to come in contact with such military officers as Adjutant General Babcock, Major Sturges and Major Thompson.
 Another gentleman, more closely con- nected with Major General Merritt than any officer of his staff, is Private Secre- tary William Howell. He has at all times and on all occasions treated the callers at headquarters with the greatest civil ity and kindness, at the same time guard ing the interests of General Merritt in been evident to all who have had bus mess at headquarters that General Mer- ritt reposes the utmost confidence in MT.

Centennial of the Irish Rebellion to
 Be Fittingly Observed on July 4

The Ancient Order of Hibernians have arranged for a great national celebration on July at SchuetZen Park, San Rafael. Since the union of the two branches of this order throughout the United States it has made great progress and its membership has been largely increas- ed. The present year, the centennial year of the Irish rebellion, it has held celebrations in nearly every city and town in the United States. These cele- brations have been of a twofold charac- ter, in that they also included patriotic demonstrations in behalf of this country in it's war with Spain. Occasion was also taken at each celebration to pass resolu- tions against the proposed alliance with England.
 In this city the order has determined to celebrate on the national holiday, and great preparations have been made for a notable display. There will be a process sion to the ferry, led by the Knights of the Red Branch Rifles. A first-class band will furnish music for dancing. which will kept up all day. Professors McMahon and Mccarthy will provide the jig and reel music, and platforms have been built for che dancers. The profes- sonal dancers will include Messrs Kel- leher, O'Connor and others, and a large number of amateurs have entered. Val uable prizes will be awarded. There will also be games, including tug of war con tests, races of all kinds and jumping throwing the hammer, etc. The patriotic exercises will be held on a special plat form. Hon. Robert Ferral will deliver the oration. The poem will be by Eustace Cuelman. Augustine Costello of New York will deliver an address on the evils of alliance with England ''The Star spangled Banner" will be sung. The Declaration of Independence will be read and the memories of "'9S" revived by song and recitation.

ENDED HIS LIFE
 WITH FUSEL OIL
JOURNALIST HAROLD LEACH
 COMMITS SUICIDE.
A New Poison for Self Destruction Entered on the Records of the
 Coroner's Office.

It is a traditional belief in the Coroner's s office that there is nothing new in sui cides"-that there is ever "a similar case' in the archives of the city dead house. There is also a dictum that the profes- sional man, the handler of gross or suoule poisons, seldom, if ever, uses this knowledge to commit self-murder by the \ easiest and most painless manner In other words that when he resorts to sui eide he usually adopts brutal method.
 A case that came to the Morgue yester- day, however, disproved both these propo- sitions. It was that of Harold Leach, a journalist and educated in law. He was an exceedingly bright and versatile writer both in prose and verse, and many a clever skit from his pen Is still going the rounds of the press
 For several years he has been con- tributor to numerous publications in the East, but has devoted his time largely to the editing of the Wholesalers and Re tailers' Review, a journal published in this city in the interest of the liquor trade. i'll health pursued him till he fin ally lost his voice, and he evidently con- cluded that the battle of life was not worth further waging. Accordingly, he prepared for a novel exit, and his efforts were successful. He was found dead on the floor of his room at sos Mission street, and a vial on his dresser told the story of his self-destruction. It contained a small quantity of fusel oil, diluted with water An autopsy disclosed the fact that the body was saturated with the drug, notwithstanding the fact that he was not a hard drinking man. Fusel oil is composed of a number of ethers and acids found in alcohol, and gives to bran dies and whisldes what Is known as the "aroma" or ." bouquet The dead man knew the fatal effects of the concentrated stuff and made use of his knowledge eff Actually, as shown by the fact that medi- cal authorities describe the results of the administration of the poison as delirium, muscular paralysis and coma, followed by death.
