extra gold lace, so there is still one
or two novelties for the Chief to spring
next Tuesday.
When Spillane marched his men
back to the City Hall Whitman sal
lied forth.
Such a headache! Those drums were
awful, but no music could sound half
as sweet to the leader as they did.
Butterworth seemed to imagine he was
clubbing a refractory drunk into sub
mission and went about the task with
his whole soul. Webster chewed his
tongue in rythm to the tattoo he was
beating, while Mclaughlin couldn't
seem to keep his drum from getting
between his legs and tripping him up.
Gardiner was all right, barring a nerv-
Gus apprehension lest the small boys
who crowded about him should give
audible expression to their inward
comments on his performance.
Nevertheless, the tribe managed to
reach the avenue, where Captain Dun
leaVy and SergeantS Mahoney and
Cook, with the Harbor division were
in waiting The two forces were con-
solidated and drilled for an hour
W1ttman's joy was not unalloyed,
however. for those drummers divided
the admiration of the humble civilians
with him, which, of course, will not
be the case when Chief Lees in all his
glory rides at the head Of the column.

that devolved upon the captain. But
he was equal to the occasion. A hand
some black steed, caparisoned with a
military saddle and leather covered
stirrups that looked like little dog ken
nels, bore the captain up and down the
line. 1t is said those stirrups were
made extra large in order that they
could be lined with nice, warm, soft
flannel and still leave room for Japa-
nese pocket stove and one of the cap
tain's feet in each.
And there was the drum corps, or
at least portion of it, for in it's en-
tirety it consists of sixteen members.
Jack Mclaughlin, Loyal Webster,
Johnny Butterworth and Everett
Gardner were each united to a big
snare drum that made even the milk
wagons shy at the noisy noise. 1t was
great, and there at the head rode Cap
tain Whitman.
Major General Otis leading his men
against the Filipinos could not be more
fully alive to the dignity and respon-
sibility Of his position than was Cap
tain Whitman, but withal he bore his
honors with consideration for Chief
Lees The drum corps and horse were
enough for him, and so he did not dis

ton, nor did he adorn himself with any

if the Southern division does not carry
off the honors in the big event.
While the Southern division was out
Captain Whitman was as busy as
monkey with a fea-infested mate,
forming his men in line preparatory to
starting for the avenue. The bulk OF
this work fell upon Lieutenant Bird
sail and Sergeants Martin, Harper,
Shea, Bush and Gleason of the Central
station. From the California street
station came a detachment under Ser
geants Helms and christensen; from
the O'Farrell street station Sergeants
Tobin and Duke brought a force, while
Baldwin and Anderson from the North
End station led still another contin-
gent. In addition to these officers, Cor

I can see through the whole business.
When the County Committee refused
to lend it's aid to elect Dan Burns the
latter influenced Loud to indorse
Byrnes, whose father was a faithful
follower of the Mexican" boss. We
were promised that whoever we recon-
mended would receive the appointment.
The man who has been appointed is a
saloon-k keeper. We who have support
ed the Republican ticket at every cleo
ton have been openly thrown down,
and the only thing we can do is saw
wood for two years and turn somebody
down at the polls next election. AS
semblyman Brown went to the LegiS-
lature unpledged. The people of the
county elected him, knowing him TO be
an honest, conscientious man, who
would do his duty by them regardless
of the consequences. He did not see
fit to vote for Dan Burns, and there is
not a man in the county but what
commends him for it. When men like
Dan Burns interfere in petty fight
of this kind it's time for the citizens
of the county to take a tumble.
II have talked with all classes of Re-
publicans since we were given this deal,
and without exception they denounced
the action of Burns in strong terms.
We have been turned down cold, and
will grasp it with great pleasure"

ton of my friends, little expecting to
incur the displeasure or opposition Of

sons.
Il worked hard for the success of the
ticket, and felt entitled to some consid-
Grafton at the hands of the leaders Of
the party. My petition was signed by
many residents, and nearly everybody
who took any interest in the political
affairs of the county expressed a de-
sire to see me get the appointment.
The appointment was to be made on
the 10Th of January, and accordingly
after election / began to make my fight

eral people high up in the councils of

This did not discourage me, as I knew
that the place had been promised to

For the past two weeks the police have
been looking for a trio of the cleverest
bunko men who have been heard of in
