Some Taken Off by Means of a Buoy, Others Picked Up by the Lifeboat. More than 5000 people who went to Bl Campo vesterday were better informed when they left there than when they reached the place on the subject of life- saving as practiced by the life-saving crews of the United States. There was given at that place an exhibition of the manner in which the crews work in the case of a shipwreck, and it was realistic, instructive and most interesting. The announcement that such an exhibi- tion was to be given attracted to the Tibu- in, picked each one off the buoy and carried him to shore. The lifeboat was launched at this point and as it approached some of the men on the wreck jumped overboard, while others threw barrels and boxes after them to keep them up until rescued. The crew in the boat went after each man and hauled him into the boat, illusirating in a ve realistic manner how lives are saved. Three times this was done and among those rescued was a woman in female attire. The captain, who was attired ina suit of good store clothes, also went over the side and was rescued. Then the life- saving crew went out, capsized their own boat, righted it, capsized it again and righted 1t a second time. She was then so fu%l of water that when they started to row her ashore the rowlocks were under. It was a hard pull, but the men made the shore. Then one of the crew jumped into the water and another went after him. This was to show how a drowning man strug- les with one who goes to save him, and fiow to handle a man under the circum- stances. When taken ashore this man was handled by the life-savers to fllustrate how an apparently drowned man should be treated to bring him to consciousness again. The last of the exhibition was sending a cutting block to part the hawser from the masthead. The whole, which was under the super- intendence of C. A. Daley, was very suc- cessful and proved an exhibition that was very much appreciated. For an hour after that the big cmwdi wandered around the grounds and many HELPING THOSE IN NEED, Three Days’ Work intheState’s Free Employment Bureau. WORTHY PEOPLE ASSISTED, Nearly All of the Applicants Had Been In Better Circum- stances. Those interested in the study of human nature, especially among the unfartunates of the City, will find much of interest in the applicants for work at the State Free Employment Bureau. Men and women who saw better days meet upon an equal footing with those who from birth have been familiar with poverty, hunger and want. It has been particularly noticed that of the 2700 who last week registered for work, but few are known to have been simularly situated in former years, , AN - 7 8% 1 SAVING LIFE FROM THE “WRECK” BY MEANS OF THE BREECHES BUOY. [Sketched by a * Call” artist.) ron ferry an immense crowd of people, who, anxious to be on time, took passage | on the Ukiah when she left on the 10:30 | trip to the number of 1700. When she left | on the noon trip she carried over 2000, and there yet remained so many anxious to wit- ness the exhibition that the James M. Dona- hue was pressed into service and she car- ried a large number, followed by another crowd cr the Ukiah on her 2 o'clock trip. At about the latter hour the scene at El Campo was one of the most picturesque that any one could wish to see. Itwasa living picture. The sun-browned slopes of the hills that are dotted with thick foliage trees formed the background. On these slopes were thousands of people who had ranged themselves so as to obtain a view of the exhibition. The varied colors of the dresses worn by the fair sex gave the slope the appearance of an immense pas- ture of flowers of many hues. Along the beach there were any number of sight- seers. San Pablo Bay was crowded with rowboats filled with pleasure parties, steam launches with gay colored canvas awnings; graceful yachts, with pennants flying and clean white canvas set to the winds; schooners cruising around. and at anchor was the schooner Nellie Richard, which was to represent the “wreck’ from which the life-saving crew was to save the men who were on board. Down in a space inclosed by ropes was the life-saving crew, in white duck suits and white tarpaulins, waiting for the signal tbat would tell them that their services were wanted. To the rear of them wastne apparatus for their use, while on the hill- sidpe, to the south, alongside of a flagstaff, was a mau in white, a lookout watching for a vessel in distress. Then in the pavil- jon were many couples who danced to the music of Blum’s band while waiting for the exhibition to commence. Bhortly before 2 o’clock the crew in white commenced to patrol the beach under com- mand of Captain Frank Burke, At the same time the Nellie Richard weighed anchor, sailed out inte the bay, tacked several times and, on the last tack, when heading for the stake at which she was to be wrecked, some hundred and fifty yards from shore, she ran te the masthead the signal from the code signifying that she needed assistance—then she sent up a rocket. ‘The man on the lookout responded with a rocket and hoisted the resgonding 1 signal, infurmmf those on board that help was at hand. The schooner fired another rocket to give notice that the signal was understood. Then the lookout ran down to the captain and informed him that a vessel was in distress. The latter then gave orders to man the beach- cart, the men losing no time in running to the rear and dragging the cart to the shore line, each man attending to his par- ticular duty prescribed by the drill, and, in a moment, two men were digging a deep hole in which .to place the sand- anchor, two wide boards, four feet long, in aform of a Geneva cross, to which was fastened a line ana double block; two other men lifted from the cart the faking- box containing the shotline and projec- tile, then the wrecking gun was placed in | position, and, in a_few minutes—the work being somewhat slow to enable the specta- tors to understand every movement— everything was in readiness. There wasa repors, the projectile flew from the wreck- | ing gun followed by the shotline, which, | firelfncross the vessel and to windward, fell across the deck just abaft the fore- mast—a well-directed shot. The line car- ried a card of instructions, and, acting on these, the men on the vessel hatled in the line which brought to them the “whip,” an endless line, which was then used to convey to the wreck the hawser on which the breeches buoy was subsequently run. There was some delay by reasomn of the fact that the bawser had been selected for a certain distance, and the schooner had been anchored beyond that distance; therefore, she had to be moved in, which act proved the ‘‘wreck’’ to be an accomm, dating one. Still the error was corrected, the hawser made fast to the masthead, and then hauled taut by means of the blocks and tackles elevated by crotchpoles. The breeches buoy was, by means of the whip, conveyed to the masthead, to which the men on the wreck—some twenty—were clambering. This buoy is a large one, to which is affixed a short pair of stout breeches. Into this a man dropped a ulley, to which it was fastened, and by Fnck t hung on the hawser, came down by the run, but before half the distance had been reached the hawser sagged, and the man in the buoy went down in the water, and then men on shore had to haul him in by means of the whip. Three men were rescued in this manner, and when within wading distance two of the crew plunged danced until it was time to return to the City. The crowd was very orderly and free from the rough element. CHARITY OF _ CATHOLICS Three Months’ Work of the 8t. Vincent de Paul Conferences. Ladles of St. Rose’s Distribute 6948 Pleces of Clothing After the Fire. Thke third general conference of presi- dents and secretaries of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul City Conferences met yes- terday afternoon in the hall of St. Patrick’s Church. John M. Burnett, president of the gen- eral body, called the meeting to order. A prayer was offered by the Rev. Father J. Brennan. Reports of work done by the various bodies, comprising St. Peter’s, St. Domi- nic’s, 8t. Joseph’s, Sacred Heart, 8t. Rose’s, 8t. Mary's, St. Theresa’s, St. Bridget’s, St. Francis’ and St. Paul's, were read. The general secretary, P. J. Thomas, stated that in all, 339 families bad been visited during the past three months, and that $2532 had been expended in relief work. The conference that had done the most work during the quarter was the St. Rose’s conference. This was due to the recent fire in that parish. A communication was read from the Almshouse committee, recommending that the members of the various conferences donate papers, books and pamphlets for the use of the inmates of that institution. President T. Roach of the St Rose’s conference was requested to state what his branch had done for the fire sufferers. “The society has expended all of its money with the exception of $3,” he said. “We relieved a great many families. In this we were nideé by the Associated Chari- ties, the San Francisco Benevolent Bociety and the Examiner. Now that all of our money has been usea and there are yet many families suffering, I would suggest that the president of the general body should try and procure a portion of the $5000 legacy left the St. Vincent de Paul conferences by Mr. Carroll. “I must say that when we were aiding destitute families in our parish, members of our conference went to various wealthy Catholics of this City for contributions, but we were denied assistance in all in- stances.” A motion was made instructing the trus- tees of the general body to procure, if pos- sible, an advance of $500 of the Carroll legacg from the executors and that this sum be handed to the St. Rose’s confer- ence to continue the relief work. A r?on wasread commending the noble work done in behalf of the fire sufferers by the ladies of the League of the Bacred Heart. They opened a bureau at 5174 Fourth street and distributed 6948 pieces of clothing, $75 in money and a large amount of furniture. This charitable work was carried on by Mrs. Mary Mc Bride, Miss Nellie McCreagh, Miss Mary Garetz, Miss Mamie Gnng and Mrs. Mary Lancke, all members of St. Rose's purish. The Key. Father J. Brennan delivered a short address. During the course of his remarks he said that he was surprised to see s0 many men engaged in such a noble work, and he hardly thought that San Francisco had such men as these. The conference then adjourned until the Sunday following December 8, when it will assemble at St. Theresa's Church. The officers of the St. Vincent de Paul Bociety desired to state that their confe ence relieves all worthy destitute, irre- spective of nationality or religion. HIT WITH A COIFEE COUR A Janitor Is Injured in a Restaurant Row. Two Portuguese negroes, brothers, got into trouble last evening at the Lombardi restaurant. One of them received an ugly ash on the bead and a bad cut over the eft eye. F.Belmont, the one injured, said he was janitor at the.Academy of Sciences building and resided at 8 Glover street. He and his brother accused G. Barry of 8191¢ Market street of having committed the a sault. A policeman took them to the Cal- ifornia-street police station, where the in- jured man stated that he was hit with a cup, Barry was not held. Police Officer Walsh, who looked after the unemployed in years past, has been unable to recognive over a dozen of the old faces. So far but few of the tramp elem ent applied for work. As a rule this class wants help, not employment, so they stay away, The statistics gathered during the three and one-half days that the bureau has been open are appalling. It is one continual story of want and privation. The appli- cants are divided off into classes by the deputies in the bureau; clerks, salesmen, teamsters, lumbermen, professional men and laborers, applications being pigeon- holed in separate boxes. In order to gather a few facts concerning the condition ef the unempln{ed 126 appli- cations were taken from the list of labor- aponnlbm? of the association and the good work it is doing. E. L. F11zGERALD, Labor Commissioner. Secretary William Zahn of the Brewery ‘Workmen’s Union stated last night that members of the union are so discriminated against by the master brewers that the onl{ way theg can now get em})loyment is to become indebted to some saloon-keeper or boarding-house keeper and then secure work through the influence of their credit- ors. Thus the brewery workmen are kept in a constant condition of peonage. The fight against the boycotted breweries, he added, would be kept up until the mem- bers of the union are properly recognized. A committee of the San Francisco sec- tion of the Socialist Labor party has just started a weekly organ called “The Com- ing Age,'’the first number of which was issued yesterday. In its salutatory to the public the paper explains its position in the following: This paper is published principally to indoc- trinate the public in the principles of social- ism, being convinced that the present indus- irial system of exploiting the producer by means of private capital under a competitive administration of planless production, crude, barbarous and undisciplined, is unfit foran otherwise generous, enlightened age. Inci- dentally it will at all times champion the cause of the producer as against the exploiter, strengthening and upholding the hands of the workmen in_ their historic struggle for economic freedom. MUSIC'S HIGHER SPHERE, William L. Tomlins Tells of Its Great Aid to Religion. Calls It a Universal Language, Ex- tending From the Cradle to the Grave. William L. Tomlins of Chicago, who was largely instrumental in introducing music among the churches of the foreign quarters of Chicago, lectured last evening at the First Unitarian Church on the parf that music takes in religion. He spoke first of the great good that the introduction of music bad done among the poor Italians, Poles, Jews and Swedes of Chicago, remarking incidentally that he bimself had been greatly benefited by music. “Music,”” he said, “is a universal lan- guage, extending from the cradle tothe grave, and none are so poor or so humble that they cannot be benefited as well as the rich and aristocratic. “Ruskin says that music will not lend itself to an unworthy subject, and I believe this to be true. Some people say that cer- tain dance music is bad and leads to im- morality. I doubt this statement in re- spect to real musie. Show me the compo- sition that has a bad moral effect on a kealthy mind, and I think I will find that it is not a true musical composition—that it contains flaws that account for its effect. “I once heard John B. Gough, the great temperance lecturer, deliver an address, and soon after was' present when Patti sang, and 1 was astonished at the differ- ence between the powers which they ex- erted over thelr audiences. Mr. Gough began by telling a number of anecdotes, which, while they were apperently given for the purpose of getting his audience into good humor, were really intended to interest every! one ~of their senses and faculties, so that they would absorb his later utterances more thoroughly. When he saw that they were thoroughly alive and exi)ecnnt. he entered upon his subject. All this pre- paration consumed perhaps forty minutes. “How different with Patti. She had not sung more than the first bars of some familiar ballad before her audience was at her feet. It was the power of music which swayed them, steadying the spirits of those wKo were strung up to too high a pitch and raising those who were de- pressed. ““Music should be taken into all kinds of life, for in all walks it will aid in turning the hearts of those who hear it toward the creator of it.”” RELIGION AND SCIENCE. ers. As each applicant filled out a per- sonal card these facts were easy to secure. Of the 126, at least 95 per cent had families dependent upon them and 65 per cent were over 40 years of age. Ten per cemt were over 55 years of age and a few over 60. Out of the number stated not oyer two were unable to read and write and many an applicant_for manual labor filled out his application in a Randwriting that would pass in a counting-house. %t was suspected that the good penman were clerks who, despairing of securing- posi- tions in the line of their calling, registered as common laborers in the hope of getting something to do to keep the wolf from the door. Te date 375 laborers have registered. In many instances those who obtained work through the bureau have returned to express their appreciation for what they received. One old man last Saturday called at the burean to tellithe deputy that the position he had obtained to work for his board and hd‘“,iF had kept him from starving to death. Tears of gratitude ran down his cheeks and he said: “Blame it! I would cry with both eyes butI lost one of my eyes during the war.” That one eye was_doing double service, Letters of thanks have been uring in from all parts of the City and State from those who obtained positions. One of these came from a young woman. On Thursday sha took her baby and started for the water iront to end her life and the life of her child. Her last cent was gone and starva- tion stared her in the face. On California and Sansome streets her attention was attracted by the crowd at the bureau and as a last resort she went there for work. Her first effort was not satisfactory, for the man who hired her grossly insulted her that night. He lived on Vallejo street and his wife was in the hospital. The next day Commissioner Fitzgerald found for her and her child a place in the country, and a letter from her stated that she had a fine position with a kind family. Another class of letters is constantly be- ing received of which the following is fair sample. It was written on Saturday: Ihave been walting to hear of some word from you, but no news has arrived as yet and [ am atraid you will come to my assistance too late, My landlord wants his rent, and I have no money to give him. IfIcould only get work to pay a month’s rent it would save my wife and child and my little home. If Idon't get work I must put my little baby away and sell what little furniture I have. I am an American, and I am sorry to say that I cannot wake a living in my own country; that is to say I cannot get enough work to keep hunger from my door. Work for me means the saving of my family. The unfortunate man lives on Broad- way. Commissioner Fitzgerald learned that he was worthy of assistance and prom- ised to get work for the man to-day. Many letters of this kind have been received and in every case, after investigation, the writ- ers have obtained work through the bureau. There have been but few such cases where women have made similar ap- peals, showing that the women of this City are better provided for than the men. EeE——— OF INTEREST TO LABOR. Commissioner Fitzgerald Indorses the Bureau Association—The Brewers. Another Socialist Weekly. Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald has paid a visit to the Labor Bureay Association, which has its headquarters in the Turk- street Temple and operates as a free em- ployment bureau for mechanics of the building trades, and Mr. Fitzgerald has Fivun ita written indorsement in the fol- owing: te of Californis SEnE g{g Sansome street, 8ax FrANCISCO, Cal., July 17, 1895, To the Public : This is 1o certiiy thatI have made a thorough and careful examination of the Labor Bureau ation, which has un- de; echanics and skilled laborers to em; )2 > rers requiring the service of such men, and e-’n ehuflnu‘;’ndone the re- Bureau of Labor aumflu,i Rev, Dr. Mackenzie Delivers His First Leoture at the First Presby- terian Church, Dr. Mackenzie, pastor of the First Pres- byterian Church, delivered the first of a series of lectures on religion and science last night. The text selected for the even- ing’s discourse was taken from Acte xvii: 22: “I perceive that in all things ye are very religious.” “This course of lectures is suggested to me by the recent death of the third of that masterful quartet of minds—Darwin, Tyn- dall, Huxley, Spencer—who have guided our advance in the knowledge of nature and of man,” said Dr. Mackenzie, “I am asking the question, after all the advance of this new knowledge, what remains of our beliefs and hopes as Christians? Among the things that remain is religion. “Paul spoke these words on Mars Hill. Below him was the market place. On the other side of him were the remains of a reat theater, where in earlier days men earned how to live and labor. ““We have been in such a theater for the past forty zears. Many actors have come and gone, but these four were easily the stars, They were mer of wide learning, of eloquent expression, of magnetic person- ality and of broad influence.” During these years we did not care to sit down to the in- tellectnal tragedies of our time except one of them was on the stage. Their theme was the scope and limit of all knowledge possible to man.’’ ———————— PLAYS AND PLAYERS. The Attractions Offered at the Theaters This Evening. At the Baldwin Theater this evening the Lycenm Theater Company will present ““The Amazons,” a new farcical romance SCHOOLS TO OPEN TO-DAY, There Are Over Sixty-Eight Thousand Children of School Age. SUGGESTIONS ON “READERS” Commissloner Harris Anxlous to Have Photographic Exhibits at Atlanta. Over 68,000 children will resume their studies in the seventy public schools of this City to-day, fully refreshed from their vacation. There are some slight changes, or, rather, make-shiits, in the textbooks to be used; that is, Superintendent Mounlder has advised all principals, in forming their new fourth and fifth grade classes, to have the pupils use the Revised Third Reader when they are not supplied with the old series of State readers, and, likewise, in the formation of sixth grade classes, the Re- vised Fourth Reader is to be used. According to® the report of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction the school census of Ban Francisco shows 68,399 children of school age, and the City is thereiore entitled to an apportionment of $229,106 50 from the State funds, which will allow all the teachers to be paid in full. It is not known just yet what will be the amount of the appropriation made by the Board of Supervisors. A circular was sent out by Superinten- dent Moulder, Satur day, calling the atten- tion of the principals to the desire of Hon. William T. Harris, United States Commis- sioner of Education, for a good photo- graphic_exhibit for the Atlanta Exposi- tion. He wants views of as many school- houses as possible, and photognphs of classes and teachers, the object being to get together a complete and characteristic school exhibit. Mr. Harris has made a similar appeal to the Superintendents of all the principle cities in the country. The Commissioner states that one purpose of his request is to enable visitors to make a correct compari son of the personal appearance of the chil- dren of the various cities, as evidenced b; their bright and intelligent faces and their neat and genteel apparel. “If we can only get up a fairly goed ex- hibit,” observes Mr. Moulder, “I am sure our school children will not suffer by the comparison, and unless I can obtain such an exhipit it were better to make none ag all.” ‘With this end in view he asks that copies of all }Jhotographs obtainable of schoels and of both present and former pupils and classes be sent, at as earlva date as possible, to Secretary George Beanston of the Board of Education. It has been customary for some years past to have photographic greups of many of the classes taken. It is believed that there will be mo difficulty in arranging a fine photographic exhibit, as the children will probably respond with a great deal of enthusiasm to Mr. Harris’ request. The natural spirit of emulation, it is expected, will produce the desired result. Prmcgml Silas A. White of the Spring Valley Grammar School remarked yester- day afternoon that teachers would feel very much more encouraged in their work if parents would show more interest in the schools. The monthly exhibitions by the scholars are given for the purpose of enabling parents to acquire a correct estimate of the tuitive methods in vogue as !;ell as to test the efficiency of the upils. s 'he system of promotion is based upon a continuous recording, day by day and month by month, of the attendance and intelligence -of the upils. which gives infinitely more satisfaction than the :nti?na annual examination method. “If a scholar’s intelligence is good,” said Mr. White, ‘““we promote him, al- thon%h his deportment may net be good. Intelligence is the primary consideration with us.” In many of the schools “bands of mercy’’ have been organized to inculcate lessons of kindness to animals. .There are twelve of such “bands of mercy” in Mr. White's school of 700 pupils. AT PARK AND SEA SHORE. Thousands Visit These Pleasure Resorts, Though the Fogs and Heavy ‘Winds Kept Many Away. A crowd considerably smaller than usual was attracted to the park yesterday after- noon. The weather was anything but pleasant, on account of heavy fogs that began to roll in about 1 . a., but still this did not keep the regular Sunday visitors away. The amusement places and main avenues were comfortably filled with strollers and vehicles of all kinds, from the stately family coach to the speedy bicycle. The excellent musical programme which the park band rendered attracted man who ordinarily seek pleasure in long strolls or in some quiet corner. From the open- ing number until Spadina waved his baton through the last piece, it was almost im- possible to secure a seat within comfort- able distance of the band stand. The cold winds and the heavy fogs did not prevent the littie children from turn- ingout in force. While there have been days when the little ones were more nu- merous than yesterday, there were qnite enough on hand to keep the donkeys busy, and as for the merry-go-round it was almost impossible to find a vacant seat any time from 2 to 5 o’clock. 'he wheelmen were out in great num- bers, and they doubtless found the after- noon more to their liking than the thou- sands of pedestrians, or those who.lolled which has met with a great deal of suecess in London and New York. Katherine Florence and Ferdinand Gottschalk, mem- bers of the company, will appear for the first time. “A Black Sheep’” having provedZsuch a great success at the New California duging the past week, the management has de- cided to run it for another week; in fact, the theater-goers have asked that it he continued to give them an opportunity to see it again. Barrett Smith’s military drama, ‘‘Cap- tain Herne, U. 8. A.,”” will beplaced on the boards at Morosco’s Grand Opera-house to-night. Joseph J. Dowling and Myra Davis have been specially engaged to ap- pear in this piece, which is a strong one, and sensational. The Frawley Company will appear to- night inan English drama, by Boucicault, entitled “The Jiit.” Scenes at a race- track enter hriely in this play. Miss Katherine Gray has been retained’ to take the leading part in this play. «Satanella, or the Power of Love,” will be continued at the Tivoli Opera-house for another week. This evening and dnfin]i the balance of the week Louise Royce wil sing the title role, and W. H. West will ap- pear as the King of the demon world. The Orpheum will present a variety bill to-night that will prove very entertaining. New people will be introduced. One is Johnnie 11, the topical singer. Others are the Bland sisters, singers and dancers, and the Garnellas, acrobatic comedians. —————————— Marriage Announcement Denled. The marriage notice of Richard J. Dowdall to Miss Annie E.

When the concert was over nearly 300 cyclers gathered on the circular course near the band stand, and for nearly an hour spun_ noiselessly over the cowurse, while occasionally some rider more daring than the rest would resort to a little fancy riding, to the delight of the assembled thousands. There were any number of tandems out, and ‘‘bloomer”” riders were to be seen on all sides. f There were very few visitors at the Cliff House yesterday, owing to the cold, biting winds and fogs. The only event out of the ordinary was the hundreds of thousandsof Spanish ‘“‘men-of-war’”’ that came in with each wave. For a while this unusualsight afforded amusement to old and young alike, though it was not long before the offensive odor drove the pleasure-seekers from the beach.
