of Colonel Stuart Taylor Burnett Joseph Simon and Colonel 1 Davis went to YountvlUe yesterday to InvestUjtt certain rumors against the managenient and eosdnct of th 00m mandantand th hospital steward ot the Veteranr Home Thet rumors htTing assumed the form of definite eharres could so longer be ignored though tlx out 01 tn eleven member ol th board wer strongly Inclined to th belief that there wu very little if any foundation fox th complaints made at ieait to far at th commandant wu concerned Two of tail majority were on the Committee of Investigation and the other two had for some time openly expressed the opinion that th chargea or rumort were not without founaallon and were of such a character to require prompt action on the part of the board TBI rOaXAX CBAKQtt Two weeks ago torn of th Inmates of the home formulated definite and expres charge of a very seriou nature against the commandant end ateward and filed them with Lyon Post of Oakland to which they belonged The charge and statement were fun occupying eome thirty pairta and the committee bad time yesterdayyesterday to inquire into only a part of the matters complained of bet the lnvtatittation of the most seriou charres has proceeded utr mat is vounuoe rerurneaxuiiy convinced that they wer well founded ana mat 11 wu unieio maxa a change in the local management of tbe home On arriving at YoontvUla the committee proceeded at one to th hospital and inquired into the alleged Intemperance and neglect of Dr Craig th hospital ateward Two montha era tner wen rnmnrs af hi mLjconduct and the commandant wu que uuuu iwh Bern xa reply vr liOvets uld he had never teen the steward under tbe influence of liquor and did not believe there wu any ground for the accusation The testimony of a number ot the Inmates wu taken to the effect that they bad re peateoiy seen ine reward grossly intoxicated and confirmatory of this testimony there were found in hi bedroom a large number ot empty bottle On tbe whole the coumltee concluded that th matter of Dr Craig dissipated habit wu beyond controversy Worse than thia It wu testified to that Dr Lovett wu fully aware of the stewards habits and had on several occasions pointed him out when he had been under tbe influence of liquor When confronted with this evidence bv th com mlttee the commandant could make no de tense lor voionei tit art told him In plain words he must have prevaricated when he stated in his letter to the board that he knew nothing of hit ever being intoxicated At thit point in the Investigation the question wu uked if tbe commandant who is also medical director had visited the hospital regularly every day 8everal testified that he had freauentlv remained away for several days and nit th com menaani ata not aeny uirrrr food The testimony respecting the food wu that no pains were taken to prepare food of a delicate nature such invalids re quired tor mote wno were in ine Hospital and bad no appetite for ordinary food One very sick man in the hospital testified that he wu almost starved for want of something that he could eat and no attention whatever wu paid to hi numerous requests for broth etc One very sick man testified that the medical director had not looked at him nor spoken to him for ten montha It wu shown that Dr Lovett had given directions to the hospital steward not to call him in the night however sick a man might be It wu proved by ocular demonstration that the hospital wu not kept clean There wu dirt on the stairs and in the comers The toilet rooms were found to be in a fearful condition and in Cbabot cottage the bedbugs were running riot dropping down upon the men from the oiling One old soldier said he had been fairly driven out of that cottage by tbe trass It appeared that though this matter had been complained of repeatedly tbe commandant had given no attention to it Another charge wu that the chief cook wu dissipated ana had illicit relations with a woman ia tbe vicinity and that he had repeatedly absented himself leavino tneinmateito perform his duties ltwa iuuuu upon inawrytnat mere wugood reason to believe these cham true Th commandant had said that he understood ue vwo a wu mamea to me woman referred to though thatwu not thought to be likely by the committee and nq proof to that effect wu offered It wu shown that he had absented himself frequently for a considerable time and that tbe provisions had been stolen tn hla absence aUo that he kept a hone at the expense or the Institution without warrant from th board and tbu tnete thing bad been winked at by the commandant A CHAEflB OF IHHCXAlVrtT One of the moat aerious charraa rlnrt the commandant wu that when a Mexican veteran named Hume wno was subject to epileptic fits wandered way from the borne the commandant though hit attention was called to the matter anil uked to detail men to search for him re iasej no so ana appeared quite indifferent In tbe matter ihe men finally organized a searcn themselves and found nim dead about half a mile from the borne Ha haii not hn rtjkri Inn ur evidence that he had tried to return bnt had been unable through weakneu and exhaustion These facta were sustained by the evidence taken Moreover It wu stated that the commandant had the dead oldler put Into the coDn he wu fouud wlta his clothes and boot on and would evidently so hav burled him without

however that ell the hotel are allowed to tak advantage of the nnr privilege ana runner 01 every nous in the city are supplied with the book The resident of Oakland fall to tee why the rich

but I must uy how keenly I appr cut tn una and heart greeting of the member of thia association extended to me on my arrival yet teroay anarneon wnica assumed the shape of an invitation to addnaa yoa

preparation will make anxious that none should be disappointed If my few remark should be of a col loquial kind Th speaker then told ot the history of a mining venture where vast aoma of money had been spent In driving a tunnel into a hillside where it wu tsppoed that a vein of silver bearing roca existed Tbe enterprise wu finally abandoned by the original projector and after a lapse of time another undertook th work and tad onrr driven tha tunnel nna yard further Into the hill when he struck a vein 01 silver irom wuca great weaita wu extracted It wu that laat yard th at made the difference and toe ume difference exists in religion I believe that very many people lose the comfort and help of religion by not going far enongh People often apeax of carrying religion too lar I think when they speaa of going too far Is when people go to extreme Tbe thing la to uk yourselves Is religion put first whether Christ it your master and whether all a man doe Is don through loyalty to the master Thia does not Imply that a man Incapacitated by religion from taking hi proper plaoe in life quite the reverse A man may be a good business man and prosperous Influential citizen and a leader among men and still be a truly Christian man All tnat is required ia that tnelr effort be made with an eye to tbe glory ot Ood and that nothing shall be done contrary to hi will I may sum up by saying that the true Christian desire to make loaltyto tbe Muter the key note of ni life If this is so how natural it la that men should band themselves together a yodhave done in thl aaaoelatlon ot oourw there ia a peoallar responsibility attached to men so banded from the prominence they assume Men will criticize their actions and will form an opinion ot religion from our actions and men may well take care to the manner In which under Gods guidance they carry out hit work Mr Aitkin urtthet a man who la not manly can not be a true Chriatian I believe that the most thorough test of manliness la to ba fonnd In tha loftiness of tone and the purity of life of uwvunsuan a listened witn interest to tbe announcement made nere this afternoon of the athletic entertainment to be given by the young men of thl association I would lay great stress on the cultivation ot physical trengia and knowledge It should be looked upon not only human bat that a ChrUtlan profession without it will be Incomplete Another characteristic of menlineu i tha total absence of mannerisms oraffecta tlons Thia it of special importance to the Chriatian young man A favorite suggestion of the evil one is that the man who professes Christianity must be of rather a namby pambyorder Straightforwardness about your religious belief and mode of expression 01 wnai youtntnx laa valuable characteristic That It one trait of the Americans which I particularly admire English have seen it in Mr Moody and in th business men and officials who have been to our country Many wno want to bear Mtv Moody expected to bear aim speak with a drawl and to tee him roll op hi eyes tad shake hU head Ultdlrect ntta simplicity in fact hit manliness soon cleared away that Impression Intention that an Instance of the advantage of
