night was committed some time Sun

M. Friedman & Co. The thieves got
away with $695.15, OF which 313s be-
longed to the mutual aid society. an or
ganization of employees of the store.
The work of the burglars was in
striking similarity to the Lundy rob-
berry and the Werle Willoh safe
cracking Tuesday night.
The burglars entered the store through
a skylight, lowering themselves to the
floor with ropes The safe was drilled
through tho combination with the same
five -sixteenths inch tool used in the
other robberies and the tumblers were
thrown in similar expert manner. On
the roof lookout watched the street
while the others worked below. The
cracksmen made their escape, leaving
no clew.
In the spirit Of daring which has
characterized all their operations the
burglars left the knob OF the combina-
tion in the center OF a piece of clean
letter paper on the desk of the vice
president OF tho concern, Hugh E.
Lyons. His desk was also rified.

Lundy case were placed in charge OF

Artman Lecture Brings Clash
Between S. M. Augustine
and the Board

SAN RAFAEL, April 1s.-The ciash
between S. NJ. Augustine. identified with
the Hotaling estate company, and tho
city trustees. came to CLIMAX tonight
at the meeting of the board. Angus
tine. as agent for the opera house
owned by the Hotaling estate. had been
warned not to allow Q meeting to be
held in the hall March 21. at which
Judge Samuel Artman was to speak
on temperance.
It was alleged that the warning had
been sent at tho behest Of the liquor
interests In order to keep Judge Art
man from speaking. Although he was
threatened with q f1ns of $500 and i'm
prisonment, Augustine sanctioned the
meeting and Judge Artman spoke as
scheduled. Tho opposition to the meet
ing. according to tho trustees. was
based on the report that the hall was
not equipped to comply with the fire
ordinance.
Augustine was present At the meeting
tonight and engaged in sharp ex-
changes with the members OF the board.
The notice had been served upon him
by Trustees James Begley and Jack
Lowell as members of tho fire
committee. At tonights meeting the
other members of the board supported
tifo slaHQ tAhch py ocSi0y 1A0 AO'cAA
and stated that their action had been
taken merely as q safeguard to prevent
disaster.
Augustine took the stand that his
building violated no ordinances and
that tho board exceeded its authority.
Trustee James Follis severely criticised
Augustine and declared that the struc-
ture was unsafe. His colleagues stated
that notices similar to that served upon
- e. ~
of other halls in the city.
To secure a proper legal basis for ac-
ton, the trustees adopted q resolution
preliminary to the presentation OF an
ordinance ordering that all public halls
be equipped with frs escapes. Angus
tine answered that he would comply
with any conditions the board imposed.

DEMOCRATS HONOR

Three Hundred Gather for Doll

Facetious Comments Are Made
On Backward Progress of
Hearst's League

The democratic stalwarts, 800 strong,
gathered at the St Germain restaurant
last night to celebrate the anniversary
of the birth of Thomas Jefferson. 1t
was a dollar dinner given by the San
Francisco democratic club, following
the custom of democratic gatherings In
the east.
POSTMASTER A H. Barendt and Judge
James @. Mcguire facetiously COM
mented on Hearst's independence

evident that the absentee editor was

BRYAN Is MENTIONED
II there is any other candidate than
Bryan before the democratic party the
local Bourbons do not know It, for the
peerless leader was the only one men
toned by the speakers.
Judge Mcguire paid an eloquent trib-
ute to the democracy Of Jefferson, TAX
ing as his text the famous declaration
Of equal rights to all and special prtvi-
leges to none. He said in part:
The majority Is interested in Justice
by right, while the minority Is inter-
ested in injustice because 1t is vested.
Special privilege buys supervisors.
mayors and political bosses. Monopoly
and democratic government cannot ex-
ist together. Jefferson foresaw the
abuse OF the equity power of the Judi
ciary whereby monopoly is now pro-
tected. Government by injunction is
an invasion of the rights Of the people
and IT is destined to be the underminer
of human liberty"
PAYS TRIBUTE TO LEADER
James II. Barry followed Mcguire
with brief tribute to William ]. Bryan
and his policies. Among the speakers
were Walter Macarthur. D. I. Mahoney
and Richard L Whelan. Among the

when her condition grew worse

MARSH
ENTERTAINED
A Few Incidents Of His Career During
the s. Years Of Missouri River
Navigation.

The Yankton, Is. d. Press pays
the following fitting tribute to
Capt. Grant Marsh, who is we'll
known in this city, and who has
one of the finest records of any
river man in the country:
The name of Capt. Grant Marsh
has been known on the Missouri
river for fifty three years, as he
modestly admits, a record that
would recommend the man that
bears the name anywhere. But,
there are, as it happens, many other
things besides his remarkable long
service on the river that commend
Capt. Grant Marsh to Yankton
people, and for that reason this
paper rejoices with his many old
friends that he has at last come
home, ''tied up," as it were, once
again, at the old friendly wharf OF
Yankton, after a quarter Of a cent
ury's absence. Those years have
seen many changes and the visitor
will excuse the many Pharaohs who
have arisen and who know not Jo-
seph, when they ask. Who is this
Captain Marsh?"
For one answer it might be stat
ed that a Yankton boy, and one of
the city's best, Joseph Mills Han
son, found Captain Grant Marsh
in St. Louis one day. Ever since
that meeting "our Joe'' has been
giving a good deal of his valuable
time to what he saw meant price
less history to South Dakota. He
found that Captin Marsh = no
longer young Che admits it) had
locked up in him more real facts
about the early history of this part
Of the world. especially where it
touched on the Missouri, than any
other man or men, or books, living
or written.
But that book will not give
special attention to the fact Capt.
Grant is a man among men, a
typical clean westerner, river
man to his finger tips, and still
everybody's friend, and particular
ly Yankton man, at that. In the
early days, when Missouri river
navigation brought to this city
every box of matches and every

in compiling his record of Captain
Marsh's memories. The veteran

the visitor prisoner and VOWS he

visit, before he brings him to town
and permits him to take up his
journey toward Bismarck. where
Captain Marsh is now residing,
and where, of course, he still fol-
lows the winding and constantly
changing Missouri for living.
Asked as to whether he considered
the river a navigable stream Capt
Marsh got as near mad as such a
kind heated, jolly character can

warmth, Say, we settled that down
at Sioux City; of course the river
is navigable.' and with a sly wink
