Tyndall's Lecture.
An Interesting lecture was given at
Steinway Hall last evening by Dr. Alex.
J. Mclvor-Tyndall. He took for his sub
ject "The Mastery of Fate," and dealt
with the problem of inherited conditions.
He quoted the achievements of Luther
Burbank, who has been called "the wiz
ard of horticulture," In defense of his
theory that because a person has been
born with disadvantages it does not fol
low that he must forever remain a victim
to what he erroneously terms his "fate."
Just as Mr. Burbank has been ' able to
cultivate and Improve a common weed
until it has finally blossomed into a beau
tiful flower, so, he claims, the human
weed can become an individual of power
and purpose. This he believes can be
accomplished through the purposes of
cultivation and selection of thought
power.
It takes more than a frock coat /and a
high bat to make a statesman.
BENICIA. Cal., Aug. 16.— The body of
H. Salomon, who with three others was
drowned last Sunday when the yacht
Heine capsized near Crockett, was found
to-day by Boatman Thomas Connelly. The
body was taken in charge by the Coroner
and will »be sent to Vallejo to-morrow.
The bodies of the other three victims have
not yet been recovered.

Elf ie Fay begins her second week, but
the audience was somewhat < disappointed
In the omission of her songV "The Little
Tin Gee Gee." The clever soubrette could

Corbett took the cheering modestly and
would have remained silent had not his
popularity demanded a return of cour
tesy. At the close of the act cheers were
repeated and calls for a speech were
heard on every side. \Finally the big man
consented to appear and after being in
troduced by Stage Manager Harry Orn
dorff, appeared on the stage.
Corbett stood smiling as the audience
applauded and shouted. Finally a voice
from the gallery asked him to approach
the center of the stage. This was the
Callfornian's cue. "I do not think I be
long In the center of the stage," he said,
"after what happened last Friday night,
but I am glad of this opportunity to ex
plain to you, my friends, that I did my
best and was beaten by a better man. For
fifteen months I forsook /many., luxuries
that my training might be complete. I
had it in my head that I could beat Jef
fries, but he knocked that Idea out.
"I have fought two fights with this
man, as I have fought with the greatest
fighters on earth, and acknowledge him
my superior. I say that Jeffries is the
greatest heavy-weight pugilist that ever
lived, I am going to New York. I may
return to this city soon and it is possible
that I may never come back. I have this
to say, however, and will be supported in
my' statement by those among you, who
have- ever visited me in the East, that I
have never forgotten my native State
and am proud that I was born . in San
Francisco."
After Corbett had resumed his seat the
show continued.
James J, Corbett was an unexpected at
traction at the Orpheum last evening. Ho
came to the show house with his wife and
relatives to enjoy the entertainment, but
the ovation came before he could be seat
ed and a speech was called for. It mat
tered 'little, that an act was In progress
when the ex-champion walked down the
aisle. Heedless of the' soprano's notes or
the orchestra's accompaniment, cheers
resounded from all portions of the large
auditorium and the pugilist became the
center of interest.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 16.— Monsignor
Falconio, Apostolic Delegate to "the United
States, to-day laid the cornerstone of the
Dominican House of Studies at Brook

The Holy Name Societies, who owe their
origin to the Order of St Dominic, the
Knights of Columbus and the Ancient
Order of Hibernians assisted in the cere

EEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 16.— Coleman
Tierney, a tailor on the steamer Spokane,
was killed early to-day by Patrolman
Searing In the "White House saloon. H.
C Fuhrburg, the proprietor, tried to get
Tierney to leave, and being struck a blow,
called the officer. On Searing's arrival he
repeatedly requested the sailor to move
and Tierney began an onslaught on him.
Se&ring then drew his handcuffs and dealt
Tierney a blow on the side of the head,
fracturing the skull. Tierney died soon
afterward.

But he brightened as the stage bullets
began to fly and brave warriors from tha
Presidio poured shot into unseen rebels.
"The old gentleman's smile was a. bit
tremulous as he replied simply: "They
wouldn't have me."
While It was being set the old gentle
man told how he had enlisted at 16—"be
ing a husky boy, and them not being too
particular those times if you half-way
looked the IS you had to swear to." He
was looking forward also to meeting here
an old comrade whom he had not seen for
forty-one years. "Do you think you'll
know one another?" 1 asked. "Don't know.
We don't look just the same as we did
then," and the veteran shook his head.
"Seventeen years ago we • had our' last
encampment in San Francisco," he went
on. "Seventeen years more and some of
us will be setting, rather .'old-', to ''travel."
"Not you, I'm sure." I said. Then asked:
"You went to Cuba?"
/, "A good deal," said the old war dog.
"But— wait for the next act— there's the
fighting!" This remark, of course, pre
luded the third act.
"Stripped, 'em." he said.
"Does the play remind you at all of
that time?" I asked, realizing what a
thing of vivid life even the single word
"Shenandoah" means to one of the bat
tle-anointed.
"What do those signals mean?" I asked
as the lights began to flash from Three
Top Mountain.
"Oh, we didn't understand' 'em: those
were the rebels' ' signals," he explained.
Then, as a prisoner was brought on and
subjected to the usual stage search for
dispatches the old gentleman chuckled
and said: "That wasn't the way we used
to search men in those days."
"But how?" I queried.
"That fellow knows his business," he
began, nodding toward the unseen bugler.
"Yes, I was at Shenandoah, and there are
about twenty others of us In the house
to-night. I was with Cuvier Grover. The
enemy came across that creek yonder,"
Indicating the stream In the middle of
the painted valley on the back scene, "in
the night and surprised us. Wouldn't have

October— thirty-nine years ago, that was.
"There wasn't anything of that kind,"
he went on, with a genial smile at the
lovers just then occupying the stage.
"Why, the women spat In our faces, poor
things."
"You were there," I said at last to the
brave old figure at my side. It was at
"Shenandoah," at the California last
night, and luck had placed me next to
one of the survivors of Cedar Creek. The
old warrior, bravely badged and medaled,
had stood it as long as he could, but at
the rousing calls of the bugle he turned
sheerly toward me and smiled his desire
"to tell about" it.

AT CALIFORNIA
Senator Gorman, since his return from
Europe, has persistently refused to dis
cuss financial questions .which may be
brought up in Congress. But some of his
friends have been talking for him, be
cause they do not wish him to be placed
In the attitude of opposing any measure
financial questions, Senator Ar
thur P. Gorman, the leader of the Democ
racy in Congress and its possible candi
date for the Presidency, will not be found
among those members of the minority
making factious opposition to remedial
legislaticm ; Indeed, It Is altogether proba
ble that before the extra session convenes
Senator Gorman will call a conference of
the minority leaders and urge them to
abandon their attitude of opposing any
thing and everything in the way of finan
cial measures proposed by the majority
party.
CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET,
N. W., WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.
—When the United States Senate
again plunges into a discussion of
"Bravo!" he said, "I've seen 'Shenan
doah" done lots of times, but never a bet
ter fight than that!"
"Were you dressed like that?" I asked,
recalling some unholy incongruities of cos
tume among the feminine members of the
cast.
"Oh, I told some of the boys to-day they
ought to take' oft their blouses," the old
gentleman replied. "We used^to take off
our shirts."
Then as General Sheridan gaily rode In
on his black horse, the veteran confided
to me — In a whisper, so as not to hurt the
mimic Sheridan's feelings— that "He ain't
like Sheridan."
With the old soldier I also believe that
the fight's the thing in "Shenandoah."
It is an excellent bit of stage manage
ment, rank on rank of soldiers, and no
lack of powder. It Is a blessed relief
from the usual super horror and in itself
worth seeing. The cast is well suited in
its parts, in particular as to Charles
Wyngate, Frank MacVlcars, ' Thomas
Oberle and E. Gardiner Jones; Lillian
Kemble and Elsie Esmond. Miss Kath
erine Oilman, a charming young Cali
fornian who will be heard from some day,
made a modest and successful debut as
Jenny Buckthorne.

that may abate or remove the present
financial Ills simply because It has been
proposed by members of the opposite
party. Senator Gorman was not alto
gether In sympathy with the members of
his party who talked to death the Aidrich
bill last March. There were features of
that measure which he did not approve,
but the manner In which it yas finally
disposed of he did not think" dignified or
was entirely advantageous to the Demo
crats. Neither is he in sympathy with
what appears to be the attitude of Sena
tors Daniel, Teller and Money In the pres
ent agitation. Mr. Gorman thinks that if
the question of politics Is to enter into it
at all it will be far better for the Democ
racy if the Republican leaders go before
the country as having failed to agree
among themselves on the desired legisla
tion than of having failed to muster suffi
cient strength to pass It. Any aggressive
action on the part of the Democrats to op
pose legislation in embryo or to adopt ob
structive tactics, as waa done last winter,
the Senator does not consider neither
statesmanship nor politics,

The President concluded by referring
briefly to the Civil War and touching on
patriotism. The applause at the conclu-
Elon of his address was enthusiastic and
the cheering: continued until he had en
tered his carriage and been driven away.
We have good scriptural authority for the
statement that it is not what comes into a
man's mouth, but what goes out of it that
count*. I am not addressing weaklings or I
should r.ot take the trouble to come here. I
am addressing strong, vigorous men. who are
engaged tn the active hard work of life, and
life to be worth living must be a life of ac
tivity and hard work. I am speaking to
men engaged in the hard, active work of life
end therefore, men who will count for good or
for evil, and it is particularly incumbent upon
you who have strength to set a right exam
ple to others. I ask you to remember that you
•-ennot retain your «elf-respect if you are loose
and foul of tongue, that a man who is to lead
a clean and honorable life must inevitably suf
fer if his speech likewise is not clean and
honorable. Every man here knows the tempta
tions that. beset all of us in this world. At
times anv man may clip. I do not expect
r-erfect-ion. but 1 do expect genuine and fin
cere effort toward being decent and cleanly
in thought, in word and in deed.
Just as I was driving up here a friend who
was with us taid that in his experience the
boy who went out into life with a foul tongue
was apt «o to go because his kinsfolk, at
";• a--t his intimate associates themselves, had
a foul tongue. But while the life in the fam
ily cannot do everything, while the associa
tions or friendships cannot do everything, still
the friends the father, the elder brothers, can
do most toward seeing the boys as they be
come men become clean and honorable men.
I have told you that I wanted you not only
to be decent but to be strong. The boys are
not going to admire virtue that Is of a purely
anaemic type. They believe in courage, in
manliness. They admire those who have the.
quality of being brave, the quality of facing
life as life should be faced, the quality that
rr.ust stand at the root of good citizenship In
peace or in war. If you are to be effective as
good Christians you have sot to possess
strength and courage, or your example will
count tor lUtle with the young, who admire
strength and courage.
OYSTER BAr.N. Y., Aug. 16.—Presi
dent Roosevelt delivered the principal ad
dress at the quarterly meeting of the So
ciety of the Holy Name of Brooklyn and
Long Island, held here to-aay. "Decency
of Speech and Conduct" constituted the
theme of his address, which was enthusi
astically applauded by an audience of
more than 2000 persons, mostly men.
During the afternoon special trains
brought hundreds of members of the soci
ety to Oyster Bay from. Brooklyn and
Western Long Island. Threatening
weather kept many away, but although a
light rain fell durinc the exercises the
crowd remained banked about the flag
decked stand on a beautiful hill opposite
St. Dominick's Catholic Church.
As President Roosevelt drove up to the
stand in a closed carriage, accompanied by
Captain W. H. Brownson, superintendent
of the Naval Academy, Secretary Barnes
and a representative of the society, he
was accorded an enthusiastic reception.

teem in which Mr. Roosevelt is held by
the Catholics of this country.
When President Roosevelt rose he was
greeted with prolonged cheers and It was
a full minute before he was able to pro

addressed to the of fleers and enlisted men of
the navy, in which the central thought was
that each American must be a good man or
he could not be a good citizen. And one of
the things dwelt upon In that sermon was the
fact that a man must be clean of mouth as
well as clean of life — must show by his words
ag well as by his actions his fealty to the
Deity and the Savior If he is to be what we

One serious loss was the destruction of
hundreds of bales of hennequln and cot
ton which were on the docks at Progreso

Little by little the wind increased, and
soon it was tearing up great trees by the
roots, blowing roofs away and destroying
houses ahd plantations. Great damage
was done in a very short time.
Naturally the hurricane was more terri

made to save small vessels, but to no
avail, and twenty of those lying In , the
port of Progreso were cast upon the
shore. •

consequence of warnings given some time
beforehand, panic Quickly seized the
community.
OYSTER BAT, N. Y., Aug. 16.— With the
North Atlantic fleet anchored oft Oyster
Bay, this has been almost a fete day on
the bay and sound. Hundreds of pleas
ure craft hovered about the fleet through
out the day, notwithstanding the weather
was threatening.
Official formalities were begun at 9
o'clock this morning, when Rear Admifal
Barker, accompanied by Captain Hemp
hill of the Kearsarge and Flag Lieuten
ant Eberle, went in a barge to the Dol
phin to pay his respects .to Secretary of
the Navy Moody. An hour lifter Secre
tary Moody, accompanied by former Sec
retary Chandler, returned the visit. They
remained to attend divine service.
When Admiral Barker was Informed
that the President also would attend the
service, orders were issued at once for all
Officers to appear in special full dress.
Shortly before 11 o'clock President
Roosevelt arrived on the Kearsarge from
the naval yacht Sylph. As he came over
the side of the Kearsarge the band was
paraded, the marines presented arms, the
bugle sounded a fanfare and the drums
gave four ruffles. Then the band played,
"Hail to the Chief." as Admiral Barker
received the President on the quarter
deck.
A few minutes later a launch from the
Sylph conveyed to the Kearsarge a party,
including the President's family and Cap
tain Willard H. Brownson, superintendent
of the Naval Academy. The divine ser
vice was conducted by Chaplain Isaacs,
whose sermon was particularly addressed
to the officers and men. of the ship. His
especial theme was that the man who
served his country best was he who also
served God.
At the conclusion of the service the
President and Secretary Moody casually
inspected some parts of the ship. The
President then received Rear Admirals
Wise, Sands and Coghlan, who had come
from their flagships to pay their respects.
Mrs. Roosevelt and the other ladles were
shown over the ship.
When the President left the Kearsarge
at 1 o'clock the sides of all the ships were
again manned and every honor was paid
except the firing of the salute, which was
omitted because his visit was unofficial
and was made on a Sunday.
At 5 o'clock Sir Thomas Lipton, on
board his steam yacht Erin, passed the
fleet. Sir Thomas stood on the bridge and
saluted each ship as he went by. He will
be the guest of President Roosevelt on
the Mayflower to-morrow.
At the conclusion of the review to-mor
row the battleships Kearsarge, Illinois
and Alabama will go seaward at full
speed, which they wyi maintain until
they reach Race Rock, at the eastern en
trance of Long Island Sound.
It is understood that the first division
of the torpedo-boat destroyers, composed
of the Decatur, Bainbridge, Barry, Dale
and Chauncey. under command of Lieu
tenant Lloyd H. Chandler, son of the for
mer Secretary of the Xavy, after the
maneuvers of the summer, which will be
concluded on the 29th inst., will proceed
to the Asiatic station, via the Suez canal.
The cruiser Chicago, which has Just ar
rived from Europe, joined the fleet to-day
and will participate in the review.

DOAN'S KIDNEY FULS.
A MEASURE OF MERIT.
'Mi
fan FrandMco Citizen* Should
Welch Well Thl« Evidence.
Proof of merit lies in the evidence.
'Convincing evidence in San Francisco
Is not the testimony of strangers.
But the Indorsement of San Francisco
people.
That's the kind. of proof piven here.
The statement of a San Francisco citi-
zen.
Mrs. W. Heine CW. Heine employed on
the Examiner) of 3007 Flllmore street
fiays: "It is impossible for me to say-
too much In favor of Doan's Kidney Pills.
I have the best of reasons for this. I
suffered from an attack of kidney trou-
ble in the winter of 1S02, causinp pain
across the small of my back and down
through the loins. It finally grew so bad
that I could scarcely turn or move with-
out enduring the most agonizing twinge,
and often as the pangs shot across my
back I almost exclaimed. Just before I
used Doan's Kidney Pills I was so help-
Ipss that for two days I could only get
about the bouse with the aid of a cane.
Ther must be rome merit In Doan's Kid-
ney I !.s, for they gave immediate re-
lief. A short course of the treatment
mopped that particular attack. I now
know what to do Fhould others occur."
