Victory Perches on the Ban ner of theDemolay Com raandery of Louis ville. Miscellaneous Notes San Francisco, August 25. The com petetive Knights Templar drill occur red this afternoon at Bay District park. Long beiore tlie beginning of the ex crcise the grand stund with a seating capacity of 3000 was crowded to the utmost and 1,000 were in the enclosure below. Only three commandeiics com peted, the Rapiers, of Indianapolis, DeMolay, ot Louisville, and Bernards, of Chicago. Each drilled with twenty seven men, except the St. Bernards who only drilled tweutA-fivor "Forty min utes times was allowed for eech drill. The Pacific coast commaudery refrain ed from competiug, preferring that the prizes should be won'pv, Eustern Sir Knights, whom they regard 'as their guestd. There were five prizes in all varying in value from S4.000 to $5,000 The rule was made by the biennial commission that the prizes should be come the absolute property of tbs win ners, and not be subject to further com petition. There wre three judges, all officers of the United States army. The tactics constituted sword exercises, military evolutions, and templar move ment. The first to appear in the list were Ui Kapier, of Indianapolis, the privilege of the last drill being conced ed to the St. Bernards, of Chicago. At 12 o'clock sharp they advanced, accom panied by the band of the First United States cavalry, and filing icto line, gave the salute. This was the signal fer a -reat burst of cheerins in which the two commanderies heaitily joined. Their drill was excellently perfermed. The Rapiers were followed by the De Molays, who as they marched in stately column to the front of the judge's stand led by the Eightieth United States infantry band, were received with great cheers. After them came the St. Bernard's with Lyon & Healey's Chicago band. They were greeted by a continuous burst of applause. Their salute to the judges was the signal for renewed cheering, which was kept up until they began their exercires. The urill finally ended by the awarding of the first prize to the De Molays, sec ond to the Rapiers, and third to the St. Bernards. AMONG THE G RISERS. Upper Geiser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, August 24 via Living ston, M. T., August 20. At 1 o'clock today after a dusty. marcL of 27 miles over a rough trail, the president and party arrived in the Upper tteiser Basin of the National park, and went into camp near the old taithful geiser, who greeted us a few moments after dis mounting, with one of his hourly erup lions. All ot us were very . tired aud hungry, and the exhibition, that seen.ed gpeciaily to greet the chief magistrate, could induce but few of our number to abandon their lunches and rush to a point for observing the display. The afternoon was devoted to resting, bath irig and overhauling our outfit, and but little attention was paid to geisers, be yond those in the immediate vicinity of our camp. All are impressed with the wonders that surround us. Tomor row will no doubt prove a day of inter est and pleasure. Of the curious freaks that nature exhibits in this section, I shall say nothing; the whole park and all it contains has been often described and I would not undertake to write up that which has been so well pictured bv others. After our ride on horse back every member of the expedition n in the best of health, and not an acci dent of the slightest character has oc curred on the w!r1c journey to mar our phwnre. - THE DIAMOND. .

No. Tacher'a court, occupied by. eight families. The fire spread with frightful rapidity. - Bo fore the inmates could be takeu out, four were" sniothered, and one fatally injured by jumping from the building. Te egraphic - . The killed are George and Thomas Mc Laughlin, aged 14 and 11 respectively; Mrs. Fred. Savage, aged 40, ana ivauo aid Mamie Savage, aged 14 and o months respectively. The cries for help from the persons, imprisoned amid the fUmes wero heartrending, but people ou the street could do nothing towards saving them. The flames were sub dued in less than half an hour. John Savage, first to discover the fire, gave the alarm and jumped to the ground, a distance of 30 feet. He had one leg bAdly hurt. John McLaughlin, awaken ed by lhe cries of Savage, saved his wife and girls and two of his boys, Wil lie and James. In his second attempt to return, he was driven back by the flames. Little George . McLaughlin rouoliul thn roof, and a canvas was spread in the street below and he was told by his fother to jump into his arms. The boy bravely jumped, missed the rnnvHa unit w- fatallv injured. His uiotucr is crazed with augun.ii. fehe attempted three times to enter the burning building to save her other boy Thomas, and received such injuries be fore she could be secured that sue is not expected . to live. The Are was un doubtedly started in Savage's apart ments. It is believed to have been a kerosene lamp which one of the broth ers threw on the other. It is also b lieved that John Mcintosh had a hand in causing the fire. John Flynn, who slept in the room directly adjoining the Savages, overheard some one crying out '-lor God's sake don't throw that lamp." Mcintosh and the two Savages were arrested tbis evening, and held to await developments. A GOVERNOR IN TROUBLE. Chicago, August 26.
