OF his brother from the firm Daniel
Rogers continued the practice OF his
corner Of Montgomery and Merchant
streets, until two years ago, when he
returned 10 Delaware TO end his re-
naming days.
In colonial and later times many
members of Daniel Rogers family were
distinguished lawyers. He was named
for his grandfather, who was prom
inently identified with the history Of
Delaware and was one of its early Gov
ernors. His father, James Rogers, was
Attorney General Of Delaware for
twenty years.
No lawyer at the San Francisco bar
was more respected by its members and
others who knew him than Daniel
Rogers. Firm, modest, punctual and
punctilious in the performance OF his
professional and civic duties, he easily
won and maintained a reputation for
unquestiOned integrity. While engaged
in general civil practice he gave much
attention TO probate matters and was
the trusted attorney for many large
estates, that Of Jose Vicente de La
veaga, which recently was settled by
the Supreme Court, being the last.
Mr.. Rogers was elected to the Leg
islature of California and served during
the sessions OF 1S5s-6o. and was again
elected in 1874. In 1882 he was elected
a Supervisor of this city and county,

SIDEWALKS MUST BE
CLEARED OF LUMBER
Board of Works Informs Dealers That
Maintenance of distractions Will
No Longer Be Tolerated.:


The Board of Public Works yesterday
cited a number of lumber dealers to
appear and explain why lumber is al
lowed to obstruct the sidewalks in the
vicinity cf Townsend and other streets.
The board stated that many millions Of
feet Of lumber are stored on the public
sidewaTs and that it was intended
to order them to be cleared in the same
manner as had been done with those
in the business, fruit and warehouse
districts
Several lumber dealers addressed the
board and stated in extenuation that
they had not sufficient yard room for
their lumber and were compelled to
use the sidewalks. The board informed
the dealers that all lumber obstructing
sidewalks must be removed therefrom.
The board considered the report of
the Bureau of Engineering that two
contractors. G.. Harney and A. b.
Clute-had signed up the property own
ers for private contracts for improv-
ing Clement street from Second to
Sixth avenue. Both petitions con-
tained in many instances the same sig
natures. and what added to the COM
plexity of the situation the Board of
Works itself had proceeded to do the
work on the crossings under public
contract. After discussing the matter
it was agreed between the two con-
tractors to divide the work up.
The board adopted resolution that
it is expedient to improve Nineteenth
avenue from Trccadero Gulch to Ocean
avenue, the land of which was decided
to the city by the Spring Valley Wa
ter Company. the estimated cost being
$500.
The temporary employees were ap-
pointed for period of thirty days, with
the exception of those in the school
repair department, who are now un-
der the jurisdiction Of the Board of
Education.
w. r. Fitzmorris and C. II. Board
man were formally appointed draughts-
men to aid in the work Of preparing
maps for display at the st. Louis Ex-
position.
The salary CT L. Meehan, watchman
at the City Hall, was raised to $50 per
month.

The New South Wales exhibit in
cludess corn or maize, seventeen feet
high and wheat stalks six feet tall.
Thirty-five bushels to the acre is the
average wheat crop where these stalks
were gathered. In addition to agri-
cultural specimens, the exhibit in
cludes many curios of historical inter
est. Commissioner Watson offered to
take some aborigines to St. Louis, but
the fair management did not encouF-
age the idea and he abandoned it.
The rain. which came 10 New South
Wales after many months of drought,
has worked agricultural miracles. and,
according to Mr.. Watson, the colony
never harvested such big crops as those
being gathered to-day.

Bulletin. died last Friday morning

ming with an attack of the grip. Pneu-
monia developed and heart disease

race actively engaged in the newspaper
field, in which he was highly success
ful. He was 81 years of age. At the
time OF his death he was secretary OF
the Republican Territorial Central and
Executive committees and he was a
proficient newspaper writer in both
Hawaiian and English.

AS the town clock told last night
the silence of Grace Church was in
vaded by clanking soldiery, bent on
doing honor to one of the prettiest
brides of the season, for long have the
de daughters of the Kent household been
famed for their beauty.
Arms were stacked at the chancel
rail; flags were flung about pillars and
posts, and as for braid and brass but
tons the showing couldn't have been
more brave-nor more impressive.
Army weddings J certainly possess a
style all their own and Lieutenant Gil
bert Aliens fellow officers honored him
signally.
When the organ burst forth in the
solemn strains of .Lohengrin" the
church was filled--and filled to over
fiowing-with some very well bon
neted women, and not few handsome
men, who disdained not to turn about
their well-groomed heads to behold the
bridal pageant thusly announced.
What a fascinating picIurei First
came the ushers, then Mrs. Malcolm
Graham, matron of honor, superb in a
white crepe robe with Irish point, fol-
lowed by Miss Kathleen Kent, the first
maid, likewise in white. then the four
maids in blue-Miss Florence Cole. Miss
Jane Wiltshire, Miss Matte Melton and
Miss Louise Hall-all pretty maidens
and of fetching style. The bride, Miss
Ethel Kent, was sweet and radiant and
beautifully gowned.
Lieutenant Allen was attended at the
altar rail by Captain Helms of the Nine
teenth, while Captain Enochs, Captain
Bradford, DR.. Brieshman, Lieutenant
Wetheril and Lieutenant Shinlxle
served as ushers7all of whom arrived
yesterday from the Washington posts,
Forts Wright and Vancouver.
The nuptial ceremony was performed
by Right Rev. William Ford Nichols,
assisted by Rev. d. j. Evans, the new
rector of Grace Church.
After the services, to which 500 in
vitations had been issued. the bridal
party and the relatives held reception
at the Kent home on Washington
street.
The young officer and his bride will
visit Southern California on their
