The camp of the Oregonians on the Pre-
sidio reservation swarmed with visitors
all day, notwithstanding the brisk wind
and the refusal of the sun to shine bright
ly. All were welcomed, and the soldiers
told and retold of the campaigns in the
far away islands that brought glory to
the American arms and honor to the mar
rators. The event of the morning was the
advent of two paymasters. Majors Reece
and Downing, who liquidated the claims
of officers and privates for two months
salary. Each private received $31 20 and
the officers from s22S so to $3.50, over $40,-
900 being disbursed before the noon hour.
The major portion of this money will in
all proba bility be spent in San Francisco,
for the soldiers have been away from
home long time and they enjoy spending
money.
At noon the forty soldiers who were on
duty as a camp guard Friday night while
their comrades were being feted In the
city were given twenty-four hours leave,
and they promptly started for town to

TURNER'S RIFLE FESTIVAL

The seventeenth biennial festival of
the Pacific District Turner Societies to be
held in the latter part of this month Will
bring together the largest body of rifle
men seen here for some time Every town
of any size has it's German Turner's, and
every Turner organization has its rifle
shooting section. This year the main
gathering will be at Glen Park, and for
TWO days the rifle reports will be equai
to a Filipino battle. There are to be
other features, such as prize singing, atm
letics ball and a banquet, but chief inter
est centers about the shooting for cash
prizes on the rifle range. The Glen Park
management is fitting up 2UO-yard range,
which Will have ten targets, with the cor
responding shooting stands and other
i necessaries for shooting.
Captain Fred Attinger was selected to
look after the interests of the ritiemen
judged many of the California bench
informed marksmen as r. LANCER, l..
Bruno j. Gassman and Charles Sagehorn
Gassman and Bruno Will be the shooting
masters for the occasion. The commit
tee is already in touch with the shooting
sections of the Turner'S of Sacramento,
delegations are assured. On the opening
day of the public prize shoot, Sunday,
July 80, all of the local Turner's will as
semble and escort the visitors to the
range.
The matches on that date will be open
to all comers; on the following day only
members will be allowed to shoot. The
members prizes consist of a first and
second class diploma. But one three-shOt
entry is allowed on the German 25-ring
target: possible 70. Within the next day
or two the committee will prepare the
programme for the public shoot. The
prizes on this are to be cash only. but the
committee is working to induce the gem
eral body to make liberal allowance for
this feature of the festival which is
usually one of the most profitable on such
occasions. M. ]. WHITE.

ANEW COUPLING TESTED By THE
CITY.

At Engine SIS house Saturday forenoon
there was very interesting exhibition of
q new hose coupling, which is the inven-
ton Of Mr.. i. F. Jordan, Of this city,
and Is manufactured by the Union Elec-
trio Co. Of this city. The city will prob
ably have this coupling on future orders
Of new hose. This coupling, which Is al
ready used by the Maine Central on Its
engines. has the merit of making perfect
ly smooth the union Of the metal Of the
coupling with the rubber and cotton Of
the hose. Thus the wear of the hose lie
much longer, and repairs are much easier
and quicker than with the old style OF
coupling. The same dsvioe has been APP
piled satisfactorily to the Joining Of lead
pipe in plumbers work. For acqusducts,
cable coverings and other uses of lead
pipe this coupling lie very useful.
The Union Electric Company propose
to establish plant in this city Tor the
m anufacture Of these couplings. and 9TH

labelled "E. q. Williams, piano and fur

the street crossing at the corner OF Ex-
change and Federal streets. at O'Clock.
Saturday afternoon. With their noses
almost resting on the back of the white
horse was pair OF bay horses attached
to one OF Cloudy & Kent's wagons They
too seemed well content with their POSI-
tlon and were also apparently enjoying
the rest
The driver Of the truck wagon was on
the sidewalk In front of Roscoe Davis's
furniture store, surrounded by q crowd Of
street urchins and adults. The driver
Of the Cloudy s. Kent's team sat on the
seat of his delivery cart with a good ma.
tureo. grin on his face and apparently
taking things easy. The two teams re.
mained in this position for some ten
minutes and showed no disposition to
move on. Meantime the crowd about the
two teams grew larger and as the min
utss slowly passed the wonder grew.
The driver Of the truck team did a good
deal of talking. but apparently without
effect. The driver Of the Goudy s. Kent
wagon said never a word.
The question in dispute was who had
the right of way. Both dri vers claimed
it and neither Of them wouli turn out
SO as to let the other pass. 1t seems that
the Gcudy s. Kent team was coming
down Exchange street, toward Middle on
the right hand side of the street. The
driver of the truck team was evidently
endeavoring to turn the corner of Fed
eral and 60 up towards Congress. The
Cloudy 81 Kent driver would NOT turn
out to give the truck driver q chance to
get around the corner, n3r would the
truck driver turn out to give the Cloudy
s. Kent team a clear passage down Ex-
change street. So they stood there, both
mad, both obstinate and neither Of them
in any apparent hurry to put an end to
the dead lock and break the blockade.
They might have been there yet had not

"That man on that team won't turn

calmly. "You'll move on now"

and thereupop he took the horse by the
bride again and commanded the man to

team pass.

"You move this team out Of the way
or I'll arrest you and take you to the sta.

"Well, hold on q minute" said the
truck driver, "wait until I'LL my pips."
"No, Iwon't walt until you I'LL your
pipe" and the officer took the horse by
the bride once more and started TO turn
him into the street.
"wait until / get my hands empty.
How can 1 move him with my hands
fuil?' cried the truck driver, who had o
pipe, pisce OF tobacco aud an open
knife in his hands.
The officer told him In a determined
manner that he must move and at once
or be arrested and the truck driver
he saw that he had to move
and he grasped the horses bride
and backed the team against the
curb stone on the right OF the street,
leaving only about one-third of the
street open for the passage Of the other
team.
"I've got goods to deliver here, +" said
the driver Of the truck, "and won't
bulge another step" The back OF his
team was in front OF s. s. Rich s. SONS
undertaking rooms, and the truck team
was loaded with cases of canned goods
or something OF that kind.
The Cloudy 81 Kent team had to turn
out after all TO get past the truck team
and both drivers we're on q broad grin.
The Cloudy s. Kent driver thought that
he had won the day because ths truck
man had to move. The truckman thought
he was O winner because he had made
