TWO GIRLS WHO

collected Funds for Deceased Friend and Then Enjoyed mem
 selves Until Arrested.

The fact that Jim Heating died from sunshot wound but short time ago anu that his friends were anxious to raise sum of money with which to pay expenses for the last sad rites has resulted Tn two or three arrests, many threats Of war rants being issued for grand larceny, ac- cusations of drunkenness and loss or money collected, besides the report that iewelry had been lost strayed or stolen.
 Flora Abbott and Ollie Connors are the stars in the little drama which was but recently enacted. When it was thought a burial fund should be collected they sallied forth among the saloon men who had known the deceased, in his life time, and in few minutes had gathered to- gether about $50 Then an idea struck them and in consequence it was red-let- ter night for those who sell liquors on the Barbary Coast
 That the idea sould be carried out to the fine point the self-appointed collectors went forth and in a few short hours were behind the bars of the Cal1fornla-street Station charged with drunk Ihen tne complications cropped forth: Jim Annott and James Connors went to the rescue of the girls and removed them rom the disgraceful cell which they were occupy ing ,,,o, had been collected could not be found. A ring with dia-- n1ond setting valued at $100 was. reported a pair of $2o0 earrings for s1o in nearby saloon Flora accused Ollie of having taken the ring from her finger, and threats were made to swear out warrants for her arrest. Ollie retorted that she would swear out warrant for her co- collector for having gone through" the money gathered together through the kindness of the saloonmen.
 Then the men mixed things and a fight looked inevitable But the trouble was stopped and Abbott visited all the sa- looms in the district for the purpose of find ing the ring and earrings, but the search was in vain, with the exception that each bartender was willing to stand the drinks" Now each and every one is won- dering what happened, but it is well known that flowers were rather scarce at one funeral on account of hot time on the notorious Barbary Coast.

 T. TalIant.

Tallant of the Tallant Banking Company of this city. was quiet ly celebrated yesterday afternoon at half past at the residence of the brides mother on Steiner street.

Dr. Frank Robinson, brother of the bride, gave her into the safekeeping of the groom.
 Miss Robinsoa made a remarkably beau- tiful bride and looked extremely pretty in her white satin gown, all covered with bridal dress of her mother
 Miss Bernardette Robinson wore white mousseline de soie over white silk and carried bridesmaids roses.
 The presents were elegant, numerous and costly MT. and Mrs. Tallant left last evening for Tahoe, where they will spend their honeymoon, and on their return they will reside with Mrs. Robinson at her residence on Steiner street

NEW GIFTS FOR THE BIC FESTIVAL MaSons Are Securing Offers of Help From Every
 Side.
Extensive Preparations Being Made by the Hard w orking Com
 r1ittee.

There is not doubt in the minds of the members of the Executive Committee ar ranging the big Masonic Festival, which Is to be held next week for the benefit of the Widows and Orphans Home, that it will be a success. On every hand they are receiving generous offers, and from the material and contributions so far re- ceived the festival will be worthy of visiting from a charity and educational standpoint.
 The ladies of the California Command cry have not only secured a complete Klondike outfit and ticket to Dawson but provisions to cover miners require ments for twelve months. They have also secured the famous painting of Samson and Delilah, which will be placed in a specially arranged booth. Mrs. Dr. Edna R. Field reported that Friedman & Co., have volunteered to furnish the decora- tions and furniture for the booth.
 On Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday evenings the ladies of the commandery will entertain their Masonic visitors with social. A cash register was donated to the ladies yesterday to assist them in keeping account of the large number of sales they expect to make. They have de- cided to use the Zingari colors in the Gypsy costumes they will assume dur ing the fete.
 A 5000 donation was received by the committee yesterday lTOIl lHe CdllOIIlid Chapter, R. A. M This is the second donation made by it, the first being $500.
 The Alameda ladies showed their inter- est in the festival by attending the bene- fit given at the Masonic Temple last night. Patriotic airs were sung by a chorus of fifty voices with great effect. The proceeds of the entertainment will be given to the home.
 Friedlander, Gott1ob & Co.'S generous offer of the use of the Baldwin for bene- fit performance was gratefully received, and it is very probable one will be given. c. c. Bemis promises to secure a number of ladies who will sell tickets for the oc- casion.
 Further offers were received from the California Musograph Company and Hoefer, Meinken & Barch of New York. The former company will have a number of their peculiar music devices on ex- hibition, while the New York firm has donated all the wall paper which the Entertainment Committee deems neces- sary. A large dry goods house has stated its willingness to let the committee have bunting to be used in the decoration of booths at cost.

Collector of Customs Jackson was noti- fled yesterday of the following decisions made by the Treasury Department at Washington:
 Manufactured tobacco cannot be fur nished free of tax as supplies to American vessels otherwise than under the provi- sions of section IS, act of July A, 1897. There is no other arrangement than with drawal from bonded warehouse or a manufacturing warehouse for supplies as provided in section 16
 Cargoes brought in as war prizes are not subject to duty, and go immediately into the hands of the United States Mar shai for prize court
 An importer of alcoholic liquors or com pounds thereof who holds a special tax stamp as wholesale liQuor-dealer at his place of business in one city and sells and delivers packages of those liquors at a place of storage in another city without prior constructive delivery to the pur- chasers at the place where such stamp is held is required to pay additional special tax and to take out the requisite stamp for that storage place
 The question whether lfQuor-dealer or malt liquor dealer is required to pay special tax as a retail or wholesale dealer depends upon the actual quantity of liquor disposed of by him at any one sale.
