OF two wars Tuesday. Business In
the afternoon was suspended and
after listening to a program of patri.
Gtic addresses and exercises at the
Methodist Episcopal church, a mon
strous procession was formed and
vehicles conveyed hundreds of people
to Prairie Lawn cemetery, where the
graves Of veterans Of the civil aud
Spanish. American heroes were GOV.
cred with flowers spread by the hands
OF loving relatives and friends.
The day was an ideal one except for
a strong south wind. At assembly
call at 2 o'clock p. m. the G. Ar, W.R.
c., KING, Savsge's cadets and a
number OF loges gathered at the cor.
ner Of Washington and Harvey
avenue and formed In line. Headed
by Ansell's band In new uniforms, the
procession moved north on Washing

Harvey avene to G street, and south
On 6 street to the Methodist church
AS usual on such occasions, the
church was crowded and many people
were unable to gain admission. The
services at the church began
shortly after 2:30 o'clock with a Patri.

0. L. Smith delivered the vocation,
and every voice In the room joined in

The reading Of orders was made by

After the reading Of the muster out
roll, or the list Of the dead, by Capt.
Grinstead, Commander Coulter of
Topeka, spoke for fifteen minutes.
Col. Coulter talks in smooth, rapid
tone which is entertaining and
demands the close attention OF his
hearers. His address was devoted for
the greater part to praise OF the
heroes Of the union and the Spanish
American conflicts. He touched
lightly upon the question Of expan.
sion, and In favor of it. General
HudsOn's oratory is more on the
spread.eagle order. His address lasted
about thirty minutes, in which be

selection by the quartette and bene-
diction by Rev. E. E. Stauffer.

over the graves of the departed sold
iers, and the mounds of earth that
hide their remains from the view Of
the world were covered over aud

to board the vessel, and her way had to
be stopped somehow. Captain Johnson
gave the order to let go the anchor, and
the order was obeyed The chain flew
out through the hawse pipe to the last
link and then the ship came up with a
round turn The chain scraped along the
bottom making the crew think of an
earthquake, the hawse pipe became like
FURNISHED steel from the friction and the
windlass creaked and groaned, but man
aged to stand the strain.
The coal cargo of the Ardencraig is
wanted in a hurry, and berth was
waiting for the ship. Shortly after she
was anchored the tug Reliance went out
to dock her. 1t took over half an hour
to get in all the chain that was out, and
then the ship was docked at Union-street
wharf.
The Ardencraig is very handsome
ship, and Captain Trask likes to keep her
looking like a yacht. No sailors in the
world are better fed and cared for than
the men on this ship, but they do not
like the work of keeping merchantmen
like yacht, and in consequence nearly
the entire crew deserted as soon as the
vessel was tied up at the wharf The cap
tain and his vessel are well known in San
Francisco. This is their second visit in
less than year. The Ardencratg came
here from Newcastle, N. S. W., with coal
and then went to Cape Town with a load
of lumber. From Cape Town she went to
Newcastle and then back to San Fran
cisco.

KING KELLY AS
COACH FOR THE
BLUE AND GOLD

When Garrett Cochran comes to this
coast this fall to coach the University of
California football team he will have the
company of Ed Kelly, another Princeton
football player whose reputation is only
second to that of the famous Garry"
Kelly has been engaged as assistant to
Cochran and the efforts of the two will
combine to keep the cardinal of Stanford
in subsection for another year
Kelly Is a famous character in the
East. At Princeton he was known as
King of the Harlem Goats" for no other
reason than that Harlem was his resi-
dence before he began his collegiate ca
reer. His position on the Princeton team
was right halfback. and such was his
style Of play that he was adjudged the
greatest bucking back in the country
He. and Cochran were members OF the
same fraternity and while at college were
the closest of personal friends.
In the fall of 1897 when Cochran cap
tanned his college eleven Kelly was kept
off the team on account of the opposi-
ton of the faculty. The fact that Coch-
ran and he were of the same fraternity
was another reason why the former
bowed to the wishes of the faculty and
gave the order which put Kelly on the
side lines, though, Cochran himself was
opposed to the pedagogic demands. Dur
ing the game the two halfbackS were
forced to retire and Kelly was called into
service. BY a succession of plunges
against the Yale line he gained fifty
yards of territory, unaided and by his
own individual efforts. Yale won the
game by a single touchdown, and Coch-
ran has ever since been of the opinion
that the loss of the game was due tC

better judgment and play Kelly from the

which would not give him a chance. In
the fall of 1896 he PLAYED halfback on the
Princeton team, which defeated Yale al

work in this game was something of the
marvellous order.
In stature Kelly is of medium height
and stocky build. AS plunging back he
had no equal in any of the big elevens
of the country. Like Cochran. he is an
affable, sociable young man, with more or
less Of an identity of tastes. With Coch-
ran and Kelly as coaches of the blue and

CRAVED A GLASS
Of WATER AND
DID NOT GET It

1t is more than likely that the Board
of Health will examine into the manage
ment of the Receiving Hospital. COM
munication will be sent the municipal Of
ficers by the secretary of the Building
Trades Council calling their attention to
the poor treatment accorded Edward Zin-
kand, who was badly injured last Satur-
day by falling from the new German
school on Golden Gate avenue near Jones.
1t is claimed that the injured man was
placed in a ward after his wounds were
treated and left there a whole day with
out any one coming near him. 1t is
further alleged that he craved glass
of water and it was not given him and
that when friends called at the hospital
they were refused permission to see the
patient.
The matter was freely discussed at last
nights meeting of the association, and it
officials should have their attention di-
rected to the state of affairs said to exist
in the city's emergency hospital.
1t was also decided to notify the Park
Commissioners that the eight-hour law
was being violated in their midst. 1t ap-
pears that it came to the knowledge Of
the Building Trades Council that the park
laborers were working nine hours a day,
and as this is contrary to the eight-hour
law attention was pointedly called to it.
President p II. Mccarthy of the organi-
zation stated that If the Commissioners
overlooked the communication steps
would be taken Immediately to enforce
the statute.
A circular drafted by the special COM
mittee on "Cyclorama' was ordered re-
ferred to the San Francisco Labor Coun-
elf for approval. The circular is in rela-
ton to the conduct of Manager Woener
of the panorama on Market street, near
Eighth, who employed non-union carpen-
ters in the construction Of the big ven
ture.
