2 POLITICAL TACTICS. Dual Representation at tiio Pri- niary Election. The B.p.blican Executive Committee Make an Effort to P.a.e Inspector, at the Various Polls. The Kepublican Executive Committee has approached the Executive Committee of the regular County Committee with a claim for representation within the polling booths at the coming primary election. The latter committee was to have met last night to . consider the request, but failed for want of a quorum, but a meeting ler that purpose will probably be held to-day. There will probably be a called meeting of the Republican Couuty Committee on Tuesday evening next for the purpose of considering the various matters pertaining to the approaching primary elections. The names of all inspectors, judges and clerks for the Kepublican primary election which lakes place on the 24th inst. must be in the hands of the Secretary cf the County Committee on or before next Wednesday evening.

During the discussion which followed two or three members favored having a full representation or rune at all. Others felt certain that one good inspector at each poll ing place could block any little game or .bulldostng scheme for stuffing ballot boxes or depriving any one of the exercise of their franchise.

The hall of the Philomel Club, 1063 Mis sion street, was well filled Thursday even ing with enthusiastic Republicans. The meeting was called to order by President D. P. Duncan, who complimented the mem bers for their zealous endeavors in the In terest of tbe club, and said that the large assemblage showed that their work had not been in vain, Ile further remarked that it was with a feeling of gratification that be was able to announce that the little dissat isfaction which at one time was said to ex ist in the ranks of the It-publican party bad been eliminated, which meant success of the Kepublican ticket at the approach ing election. He was interrupted by the entrance of the Washington Kepublican Club, 150 strong, headed by Colonel Kyan and Sen ator Banks. Ihey were greeted with cheers of welcome. President Duncan ex tended to them a hearty reception, and in vited them to the fullest hospitalities of the club. Senator Banks, Chairman of the club, thanked the Philomels for their kind greet in..-, and briefly addressed those present on the issues of the day. After a short intermission, during which refreshments were served, there were speeches delivered by the following-named Gentlemen: T. 11. Barclay, James Giileran, A. T. Harnett, I. Clark, S.

The I lull Named in Honor of the Mayor .Vorl*:lii*_ in Harmony. The regular meeting of the Pond Demo cratic Club was held last evening, J. J. Median presiding and M. F. Dunltavy Sec retary. The report of the Fireworks Com mittee was received, and the committee dis charged, with thanks of the club for'the magnificent display of fireworks they pro vided, having surpassed that of the Fourth of July Committee. John Morton, candidate for the office of ■ Superintendent of Streets, made a few remarks complimenting the incumbent, Thomas Ashworth, upon the able manner in which lie fulfilled the duties of his office. A recent address by the Anti-boss Demo crats was discussed and the unanimous opinion was expressed that there is room in the Democratic party for all. Ko Demo crat should endeavor to disrupt the party by forming a separate organization. Cap tain AI. J. Wrln stated that he believed that any Democrat who had tne respect and confidence of his neighbors, certainly within the small boundaries ol a precinct, tis now formed, containing but 200 voters, could if be desired be elected to any of the conventions. The Pond Club, composed as it is entirely of business men, numbering ever 200 members and bound by no political lies to any party leader, certainly would . not approve of the efforts of any person to assist the opponents of the Democratic party at the polls.

Kerr Arrested on Two Indict i-i. Nts Charging Felony. Tne County Grand Jury was in session tor a short while yesterday. Just before 4 o'clock the members presented five indict ments to Judge Murphy. The court fixed the bail in four cases at .10,000 each and the other at $4000. Judge Murphy banded the indictments to the clerk, with instruc tions to take especial pains to keep the. names secret and have bench warrants issued for the arrest of the parties. James 1". Kerr of the Breeder and Sports man, but formerly cashier in the business office of The Morning Cai.i., was ar rested last night by Captain I. W*. Lees on two indictments found against him by the County Grand Jury. The Grand Jury has been investigating bis case for some time, and the indictments are the result of its labors. The first indictment is on the charge of embezzlement and the second on that of grand larceny. Kail on each charge is set at SIO.OOO. Kerr had been connected with The Call business office for many years, and finally became its cashier. On the Mil of June, 1889, he severed his connection with the office and it was discovered th.it there was _ shortage, and in the indictment found against him he 19 accused of having em bezzled the sum of .40.000. Tie indict ment charging him with grand larceny is predicated upon the misappropriation of money while in the employ of the Call puny. Shortly alter his arrest Kerr was released on an order of discharge signed by Superior Judge Murphy. Kerr's bondsmen are Joseph Goblentz of the firm of John S. Bowman & Co., whole sale liquor merchants, 215 Battery street, and Count George Valen.in, proprietor of the Valensin Stock Farm, Pleasanton, Ala meda County. They qualified on both bonds of $10,000 each before Judge Murphy. Oobleutz swore that lie is worth §50,000 above his debts and Valensin that he owns 170 acres of laud and improvements thereon at Pleasanton, trotting horses, and is wo rth at least $100,000. The bonds will be submitted to the Dis trict Attorney this morning, and if not sat isfactory the accused will be required to substitute others. PHILIP KENNEDY & CO. One of the Prominent Dry-Goods House. nf Han Francisco. One of the moat prominent and at the same time most prosperous dry-goods houses in San Francisco is that of Philip Kennedy & Co., at Nos. 931,903 and 905 Market street. It owes its prominence and prosperity to the ability, integrity and good management on the part of the proprietors The firm dates its history back to the six ties, when the late Philip Kennedy in com pany with a gentleman named Driscoll opened a store on Third street, near How ard. By fair dealing, honest representa tions and courteous attention to those who called, they obtained such a large clientage that they found their premises too con tracted and were forced to move to more commodious quarters. Since the death of Philip Kennedy the business has been en tirely in the control of C. P. Kennedy, his nephew, and who for a period of years pre vious and up to the time of his uncle's death constituted the company. The busi ness of tin* establishment has been doubled since he assumed control and ownership, and the house now stands prominent in the front ranks of the retail dry-goods trade. Their large and commodious estab lishment on Market street, corner of Fifth, is well known to every inhabitant of the City, particularly the lair sex, to whom the name of Kennedy is a very familiar cogno men, and judging from the patronage they bestow, the name is Indeed a very popular one. Philip Kennedy & Co. carry every heavy stock which for variety of style and quality is second to none on the Coast, with material to work on and good dis creet buyers in Eastern and European markets they are well prepared to meet the demands of the trade in all seasons with latest and newest novelties in text ures and weaves. They employ a very large corps of employes, a number of whom have been with the bouse for a long period, varying from rive to fifteen years and in some cue. over twenty years. It lias al ways been the motto of the bouse to "Keep good clerks," and when au employe proves faithful and capable he may dispel all fears of being discharged so long as good conduct and fidelity remain prominent attributes of his or her duty. Of course, a prosperous house must show tact and good manage ment and such is to be found with this house. The motto of the bouse has always been "Nothing so successful as success." When we take into consideration the fact that Mr. C. P. Kennedy is still young in years, It is gratifying to contemplate what a grand future is in store for this prominent establishment, foreboding the possibility of drawing a comparison la after years, akin to such names as Stewart, Arnold's, Jordan, Marsh and the many others who have illu mined the dry-goods world. At all events, "so mote it be."» I*. * I i-i. it .ii 1 moi.li.-i!.

SATURDAY, JULY 12. 1890-EIGHT PAGES. YOUNG BLOOD'S VIM. Meeting of the Admission Day Celebration Committee. Bcp.rts of Arrangements Already Bade— A Big Parade 'Will Be a Feature—Excur sion., Flambeaux Brills, E'.o. A certain well-known writer has said in a work widely read throughout the world that the reason why California in the early days always carried all her projects to such quick and splendid success was because her population was largely made up of young men. It looks as though the coming celebration of the 9 tb of September will be a signal triumph among celebrations for the reason hinted at by that writer. Cer tainly the meeting last night of tbe joint committee in Pioneer Hall displayed a superabundance of tho spirit that moves great enterprises. lt was a meeting of young men— of en thusiastic, Intelligent, wide-awake young men, each of whom is evidently animated by one idea— how to make the coming cele bration the greatest on record. Each one exhibited a spirit of mutual aid and as sistance, and all betrayed a sharp atten tion to the business on hand* The meeting was called to order by V ice-Chairman XV. 11. Metson, who proceeded to business without any circumlocution. After tho minutes were read by Secretary I*. P. Doolau, the reports of the committees were called for and read. •WITH JtEGAIin TO FINANCES. The Committee on Finance reported that lt intended to commence its canvass on the li.th inst. It bad divided the city into collection districts, and will have books printed aud prepared in which to record the subscriptions. All resignations or va cancies on the committee should be at once filled by the chairman of the parlor in wbich the vacancy occurs, to be approved by the President of the J. lint Committee. On July Kith the committee proposes to issue au address to the citizens of San Francisco, setting forth the object and im portance of the celebration, and by other means raise a public spirit and interest in giving freely. The bond of the Treasurer, James P. Dockery, was also approved by the committee. After the report of tho Committee on Fi nance, Fred Crocker said that the Finance Committee had discovered that some of the parlors are collecting funds from the gen eral public for their own private celebra tions. Such action would seriously hamper trie General Finance Committee in its work, and he hoped it would he stopped. Air. Steinbach moved that it be the sense of the joint committee that no parlor be al lowed to collect funds outside of its own members for its particular celebration. The motion was carried. EXCURSION AXD MUSIC. The Excursion Committee reported and recommended that it be allowed to enter into a contract to charter three ferry-boats, and that it favored the following route: ■steam along the shores past Black Point, Port Point, Alcatraz, Sausalito, Angel Island, tliiough ■.-... hi Straits, passing Bed Bock , through IS. in Pablo Bay, the Straits of Curquluez. passing Port Costa and Martinez, and leiurniuit past lie* nicia and Vaiiejo and lauding at .Mare Island Navy-yard, anil then return to the city.

The Press Committee recommended that the Printing Committee be instructed to have printed immediately 500 circulars set ting forth the details of the celebration, and that the Secretary be instructed to for ward a copy to each parlor in the State, outside of the city, and also a copy to each newspaper in the State for publication. The report was at once adopted. The Committee on Pioneers reported that it had requested the Pioneers to appoint a conference committee, but as yet had received no reply, lt hoped, however, to receive one before the next meeting of the Joint Committee. On behalf of the Native Daughters Com mittee a willingness was reported to do all they can to make the celebration a success.

All parties who desire to submit designs for a souvenir banner, it was announced, will be heard next Monday night in Boom 28, at 330 Pine street After many minor arrangements were made and discussion- had, the Joint Com mittee adjourned to meet next Friday night at the same place, -LEIN MKYEK'S GOLDEN HAIR How It. Is K. sponsible for the .tennis- Bunco of til. Night-Cup In Iterlin. Fraulein Elizabeth Meyer is one of the belles of Berlin, and her distinguishing feature is her beautiful golden hair—beau tiful in its color, its quality and its luxuri ance. Fraulein 's hair has ensnared many a fellow, just as Fyrrha's did in the time ol that treacherous old poet Horace, who used to frolic around with the girls and then publish the affair to the world in Asclepiadic or in Greater Alcaic or in Sapphic verse. Horace wrote, as also did Solomon, two distinct styles: the one might properly be called "before," and the other "after." If there were any chance of proving the matter one way or the other, I'd be willing to wager my all that Hor ace's so-called lighter odes were written after 3 o'clock in the afternoon and before 1 o'clock in the morning, and that all his serious literary work was done between 11 o'clock in the morning and 3 o'clock in the afternoon. There is about most of the "seri.uis" verses a distinct redolence of bromide. Essentially human in every other respect (as his literary remains show), the dear old fellow must have pursued the very literary methods that other literary men have pursued from time immemorial, arid will continue to pursue to the crack of doom. And it is reasonable to suppose that in his practices this very human genius illustrated the natural frailty of man which Bab-lairs has wittily hit off in his couplet about the devil and the monk. Rut as for Fraulciu Elizabeth Meyer, she has had an exciting, a marvelous experience one that will shock (and therefore charm) all the fair sex. Upon rising betimes the other morning from her billowy couch and upon unloosing the coils of her splendid hair preparatory to combing those golden tresses, 10l there fell from her ambrosial ringlets a shower of mice! It seems that during the night a sagacious old dame mouse, hunting about for a habitation, came upon Fraulein Elizabeth's inviting wealth of soft hair spread over the downy pillow. "Here," thought tho wise rodent. "13 a comfortable place for me and mine." ' So in crept Mistress Mouse and cuddled herself up among the silky strands of hair. There were seven of them next morning when, standing before her mirror, _ raulein Eliza beth rudely uncoiled her tresses, thus pre cipitating the blue-coated mother and her pink-skin progeny to the floor. The parent mouse fled under a bureau and the six help less babes lay rolling and squirming pathet ically upon the floor. In this supreme crisis Fraulein Elizabeth's presence of mind did not desert her. Leaping into a chair, she screamed lustily fur help, and presently every chair in the room had a woman on it, each in hysterics. The dignified paterfam ilias finally made his aupearuuee and re moved the frightful creatures that hud caused all the hubbub, hut Fraulein Eliza beth was sick abed for a week iv conse quence of this awful experience. The local journals got hold of this story and told it eloquently, and now a panic lias come upon all the womenfolk in Germany. Nightcaps have suddenly come into fashion again— not the picturesque frilled attairs we've seen in prints, but 11 grotesque fabri cation of oiled silk, which is said to be prop erly cool for the huad aud at the same time proof against depredatory rodents.—Chica go News. EQUATOKIA. Treatment of Natives Under Kinln P_a___. While we may naturally regret that Emm Pasha did not possess that Influ ence over his troops which would have commanded their perfect obedience, con fidence and trust, and made them pliable to the laws and customs of civilization, and compelled them to respect natives as fellow-subjects, to be guardians of peace and protectors of property, without which there can be no civilization— many will think that as tho Governor was un able to do this it is as well that events took the turn they did. The natives of Africa cannot bo taught that there are blessings iv civilization if they aro per mitted to be oppressed and to be treated as unworthy of the treatment due to human beings, to be despoiled and enslaved at will by _ licentious soldiery. The habit of regarding the aborigines as nothing better than Pagan abed, or slaves, dates from Ibrahim Pasha, arid must be utterly suppressed before any semblance of civilization can be seen outside the military settlement When every grain of corn, and every fowl, goat, sheep, and cow, which is necessary for the troops, is paid for iv sterling money, or its equiva lent in necessary (toads, men civilization will become irrestible in its intiuence, and the Gospel even may be introduced; but without impartial justice both are im possible — certainly never possible when pi led and accompanied by spoliation, which I fear was too general a custom in the Soudan. Those who have somo regard for right eous justice may find some comfort in the reflection that until civilization ill its true and real form be introduced into Equaturia, tho aborigines will now have some peace and rest; and that wliateve. aspects its semblance bore— except a few orange and lime trees— can bo replaced within a month, under higher, bettor, and more enduring auspices. — irom "The Emm Pasha Reiiet Expedition," by Henry M.

She had moved into a smith side residence, whose numerous bay-windows give one the im pression of a roomy interior, when in fact tlie reverse is true. She had made many improvements, and was anxious that I should sco what a good housekeeper she was. On the third floor she threw open a door, disclosing an apartment about the size of a bath-room in the average flat, and in whicli she stored her trunk!*, valises, etc. "This," said she, "was the room occupied by the former tenant's maid-of-all-work." "Was there a bole sawed in the partition through which to extend her feet." 1 in quired, as the story related by Frank Stock ton flashed through my mind. "Oh, no! Emergencies sire met lq better fashion in Chicago. Instead of making the room fit the girl, as Stockton did, the girl is selected to lit the room. The lady who formerly resided here fold me that she had a small mark on the parlor door, and in choosing her help, if the applicant came up to the mark she gut the position, but if beyond it she had to go, no matter how superior her qualifications were." Probably during World's Fair time adver tisements for help will contain some such clause as, "Do not apply if over 4 feet 8 inches in height."— Chicago News. Itimril of lTducallmi _lt'«>tiQc. A special meeting of the Hoard of Educa- tion will be held this evening at the resi dence of Director Df nman, at 2100 Webster street, for the purpose of settling the mat ter of quarters for the Girls' High School, the term of which will open nest Monday. As stated, four Directors are in favor of the Hayes Valley Primary School for quarters and six, as far as known, want the Grant Primary School selected. It is thought that Director Denman, who is too ill to leave the house, will vote in favor of the Grant Primary, thereby making seven vote», which are all that are necessary for a choice. Stealing a I. .ml of Ilricki). Last evening B. A. Tracey, who is en gaged in the erection of some buildings at the corner of Harrison and Seventeenth streets, saw two men drive a wagon up to a pile of brick which ho had hauled on the ground, and coolly proceed to load them In to tlieir wagon, lie notified Sergeant Price of the ."seventeenth-street station, and the men were arrested and their wagon seized. At the station they gave the names of Thomas P.yan and John Kidney. They were locked up to answer a charge of petit larceny. * A Wronged Wife.' Mrs. Lovell, deserted wife of James V. Lovell, who mi on the police force for a few months about a year ago, swore out a warrant for his nrrest on a charge of fail ure to provide. Since he left her for a dis reputable woman she has been supported by her father on O'Farrell street. For more than a year she says her husband has not contributed a ceut toward her sup port. . Antiquity of Steam Ilentlng. That steam heating is not new appears from remarks made by Mr. George 11. Bab cock before the American Society of Me chanical Engineers some time ago. Mr. Babcock cited the fact that when at Pompeii he found that the old Roman baths there were heated by steam, and heated in a better and more scientific manner than is practiced at the present time. The walls were double, and the steam, of course not above atmospheric pressure, was carried up through these walls all round the room. The walls were thus heated to a tempera ture approximating to that of the steam, and the occupants of the room were ex posed to a radiation from all directions. This, Mr. Babcock held, is the true theory of heating, and the system of steam heat ing by indirect radiation, or heating the enveloping air only, is unscientific, expen sive and uncomfortable. It Is of interest to add here that the late Joseph Harrison Jr. of Philadelphia, in de livering a lecture before the Franklin In stitute several years ago, said that he had seen in the museum at Naples a boiler sub stantially of the same construction as the modern, vertical, tubular boiler. Thl« boiler was found at Pompeii, and was made of copper.— Safety Valve. Brine your want ads. to THE CALL for Sunday', issue. A Surprised Chinese.' Ah Toy, a Chinese, was arrested on Ellis street, near Market, by Officers Arlington, Riley and Dinan of the Chinatown squad, about 9 o'clock last night They were standing on the corner and as Ah Tay passed them he jumped back as if I right ened. The officers thinking something was wrong stopped and searched htm and found a dozen Chinese lottery tickets in his pockets, for which they locked him np. HOME AGAIN! Some Are Tanned.
