been referred to Chief Glass, and that
officer had gone east. Commissioner
Wirsching objected and the matter was
passed.
On the favorable report of Detective
Moffatt. the application of Frank Kern
and Adolph Spadino for the transfer ot
the license at No. 245 East Second street,
now in the name of H. Timm, was

rooms and listened to patriotic speeches
from Alonzo Sanchez, president of the
society, R. F. Sepulveda. vice-president,
and J. S. Redona. Loud "vivas" rang
through the hall In response to each out
burst of patriotic sentiment, and a feel
ing of the national pride swelled In the
breast of every auditor.
A dance was given in the evening
which was largely nttended. An enjoy
able time was had.
