16 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MAY 23, 1896 PADLOCKED FOR A MINISTER'S SALARY Rev. George E. Jackson Wants His Stipend Paid. A COLORED EVANGELIST. First African Methodist Episco- pal Zion Church in Trouble. WILL BE ATTACHED TO-DAY. Promises That Would Not Pay an Overdue Board Bill—He Filled Empty Pews. The Sheriff's heavy padlocks will be very much in evidence on the doors of the First African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church on Stockton street, between Clay and Sac- ramento, to-day, unless a judgment ob. tained yesterday by J.J. Rauer, the col- lector, as assignee of Rev. George C. Jack- son, is satisfied. Rev. J. P. Meacham officiated as pastor of the church during the early part of this year, but somehow his exhortations did not bring congregation or revenue to the church. Rev. Mr. Jackson happened to be on an evangelical visit to this coast and was invited to occupy the pulpit for a pe- riod to see whether his eloquence would not bring the sinners among the Africans of the City to repentance. Rey. Mr. Jackson talked long and earnestly to his erring brethren and many were brought to con- fess their misdeeds. Sunday evening ser- vices became distinct events in the African colony and many pews in the First African Methodist Episcopzal Zion Church that had previously been empty were filled to their utmost extent. All went well in the church until March 11 last, when Rev. Mr. Jackson, after waiting patiently for several weeks for an agreed salary to put in an appearance, made a demand for his pay. The trus- tees were not prepared to liquidate the claim but made numerous promises which the Rev. Mr. Jackson took in good faith and continued his preaching. Promises would not pay his board bill, however, and he finally filed a peremptory request for his pay. Then it was discov- ered that the church funds, owing to un- sufficient collections, were in bad con- aition' and the amount claimed, $223 85, was entirely unavailable. Rev. Mr. Jackson was informed that his claim would have to wait until the treasury was more opulent or the trustees could in- duce the wealthy members of the congre- gation to go down into their pockets and make up the deficiency. Rev. Jackson, however, was not in a waiting mood, and informed the trustees that he must have money and at once. No pecuniary response being forthcoming bis ciaim was placed in the hands of the collector, and a suit was begun in which the trustees were designated as first Doe, second Doe, and so on upto the fourteenth degree. In the complaint the Rev. Mr. Jackson was designated as the ‘‘spiritual pastor and master” of the First African Metho- dist Episcopal Zion Church. When the case came to trial before Jus- tice Groezinger yesterday the Does, first to fourteenth, faiied to appear, and judg- ment was given by default against E. Cooper, Charles Anderson, J. H. William- son, J. A. Hackett and ten other defend- ants Doe. Unless the judgment is satisfied a sale of the church property will be forced by the victorious plaintiff. INDIAN-HUNTERS RETURN. A Youtbful Warrior Held Up by a Lonely Knight of the Road. Three Boys in' Search of Redskin Scalps Strike an Unexpected Obstacle. The three youthful scalp-hunters who started out on Monday last without the knowledge or consent of their parents to kill Indians in Southern California have returned, sans scalvs, sans arms, and are now partaking of their meals from mantel- pieces as the result of the corporeal correc- tion received at the hands of paternal rela- tives. The boys, the oldest of whom is 14 years ot age, are George Seigle, Twelfth and Howard streets; Harry Russell, Howard street near Twelfth, and Thomas Prender- gast, 92625 Minna street. After their departure had been reported to the police it was discovered that Seigle, who recently arrived in this City from Germany with his parents, had stolen $20 from his mother, with which the trio had purchased three parior rifles and a pistol from a downtown gun store. * With what remained of the money the boys bought tickets to San Mateo, and be- gan their tour as exterminators of the red- NEW TO-DAY.

Having neglected to suppl! them- selves with tents, cartridges and other necessary paraphernalia, the boys were compelled to camp under a tree in the out- skirts of San Mateo for the first night, but they made the best of abad bargain and slept on their arms, in true frontier style. In the morring Seigle, who carried a pistol, as well as a toy rifle, started out to forage for food for the encampment. He had not gone very far before he met a burly tramp plodding along the road, and confided to him his mission in search of Indian scalps, and exhibitea his pistol. The weapon seemed to be just what the knignt of the road had been looking for for a long time, for he promptly confis- cated it and admonished the vouthful searcher for blood to go bome to his mamma and be a good boy. Young Seigle at once returned to his companions and reported the loss of the most important portion of the arsenal. After a council of war hela on empty stomachs the boys concludea that hunting Indians in a country where tramps abound was not 8o much fun after all, and that they would return for parental forgive- ness. - Sympathetic strangers furnished the funds to return them to San Fran- cisco and their fathers did the rest. —————— CHURCH OF THE SPIRIT.

The Pacific Heights School was thronged yesterday afternoon by the pupils and their friends, the occasion being a charity fair, managed by the teachers and pupils, to raise funds with which to establish a bed at the Children’s Hospital. This is the second fair held recently at the school in aid of this noble cause. The first fair, held about three weeks ago, netted in the neighborhood of $650. Every room in the building was thrown open to the visitors. The whole afternoon was one continuous round of festivities. The whole affair was managed, without a single disturbance, by the principal, Miss A. M. Btincen, and her corps of able teachers. The fortune-telling booth and gypsy camp, in charge of Misses Noon and Martin, was one of ' the most popular booths. The raffle booth, superintended by Miss Roberts, and the candy booth, in charge of Miss Zweybruck, were sur- rounded by an eager throng all the after- noon. The lemonade and chocolate booths, under the supervision of Misses Burnham and Bliven, were especially well patron- ized. The five icecream booths, under the general supervision of Miss Earl, were taxed to their utmost capacity. The fish- g(n_nd and grab-bag, under the direction of isses Bush and Church, were the source of great amusement to the children. In addition to the teachers in charge of booths Misses Morrison, Banks, Cotrel and Thompson were busy receiving the visitors. Two entertainments were fi"n during the afternoon by the pupils of the school. From 2 o’clock to half-past the following excellent programme was rendered by the pupils of the sixth and seventh grades: Overture. Orchestra ...

She was as happy as a child with a new toy, but her new toy was new life. For four days she had lain sick and hurgry on her humble bed 1n a rickety unpaintea shanty on a terrace of Tele- graph Hill. Before that time she had been sick tor two weeks and then she lay unconscious for more than half a week with not 2 soul to look after her, her only visitor being a faithful tomcat with black fur and grayish yellow eyes who came and rubbed his cheek against the old woman’s wrinkles, day by day, and purred his affection into the ears of *‘La Viejita,” the little old woman who came from Guaymas forty years ago. At the end of the four days some of the neighbors discovered her and notified the Balvation Army which brings the church to the people when the people will not go to the church. Cadet Middleton, a sweet- faced lassie, visited the abode of poverty rallied and talked for minutes at a stretch of her troubles. All that the cadet could do was to smile, for the rippling, flowing Castilian is a tongue as dead to her under- standing as the hierogiyphs of Egypt are to a schoolboy. Yesterday ‘La Viejita was happy. Two blue-eyed Sisters of Charity, sisters of her own faith, sat at her bedside and spoke to her in her own tongue of the land to which the ebbing tide of life was carrying her, where there is neither sorrow nor care nor weeping nor sin, nor the sharp tooth of in- gratitude, but where the birds sing songs of peace within the happy hearts of God's own poor, made rich for aye with the wealth of his infinite and eternal love. Something of the old volcanic fire that slumbers in the Aztec race flasned from the depths of the old woman’s black eyes when she told the visitors that under the kind care and loving words of the good sisters and others she had gained strength and would soon be able to take up her work of washing and ironing white shirts and cooking her tortillas nmf frijoles as of yore. *Valga me Dios!” she exclaimed, “I am not going to aie yet; now that I feel so well. I have not lived for those hundred and six years past to lie down and pass away because of a little sickness and hunger. It likes me not to lie here a bur- den on the backs of my friends.” Her plump little hands, with rounded, tapering fingers, clenched defiantly, Eighty “years ago, when they were soft and smooth, they fluttered and trembled as they lay like frightened birds in the warm palms of the man to whom she had ziven her heart. Eighty years ago, in old Guayvmas, those black eyes glittered behind the lattice as with the sheen of a Spanish dagger as the voice of a gallant cabellero sang the old sweet song of love. Ay de mi! But that was long ago. Yet to La Viejita it seems but yesterday. — A SPIRITUAL REVIVAL President H. D. Barrett of the National Association Arrives. His Public Reception To-Night—He Comes to Organize Western Believers. The spiritualists of San Francisco are more or less agitated just now in conse- quence of the arrival among them of Har- rison D.

SCANDAL BROODS ON THE HOSPITAL, Supervisors Are Deter- mined on Holding an Investigation. MATERIALS ARE MISSING Matron Black’s Relatives Are Boarders at the Institu- tion. STORIES TOLD IN FIGURES. Fewer Patients and Twice as Many Attendants as Under Other Regimes. The most glaring of the many scandals that have turned up during the adminis- tration of the present Board of Health bids fair to develop during the investigation of che City and County Hospital, which has been carried on by the Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors for sume time past, A few bills that did not appear to be just right placed the guardians of the public funds on the alert and the matter has now grown so important that Supervisor Di- mond has been appointed a committee of one to make a thorough investigation and report to the committee at its next meeting. Not only the Superintendent, Dr. Stahle, is involved, but also subordinate employes who have been charged with acts that place the institution in a bad lignt. The Finance Committee was informed vesterday that Mrs. Mary Black, the matron, was housing and feeding two daugnters and a grandson at the institu- tion at the public expense, and that other extravagances were being permitted that were eating up the appropriation, which has been declared by Dr. Stahle to be in- sufficient for the proper support of the hospital. It was aiso reported to the committee that goods which had been sent to the hospital for the use of the patients and for the purpose of fixing up the quarters of the internes peared during the absence of the custodian of the storerooms, and had failed to be used for the purposes for which they were intended. These matters were s0 much more im- portant than the heavy poultry bills that bhad at first excited the curiosity of the committee that it was decided to look into them at once and see how much of the funds allotted to the institution had been frittered away. In order to get an idea of what the ex- penditures of the hospital should be, the expert of the board was sent to look over the books in the Auditor’s office and com- plle a tabulated statement for several years past. The result was a great surprise to the committee, and one that will militate greatly against the increased appropria- tion which the Board of Health will ask for the coming fiscal year. The most glaring difference was between the figures for 1886-7 and 1884-5. During the fiscal year 1886-7 under Dr. Barger the average number of patients was 411, to take care of whom 47 attend- | ants were employed. The total cost of running the institution for the year was $69,564, of which $24,223 38 was for sub- sistence, During 1894-5, under Drs. Titus and Stahle, the average number of patients was 302, more than 100 less than under Dr. Barger’s regime, while the number of attendants was 96, or more than twice as many = as under the acdministration of 1856-7. The cost of the last fiscal year was $79,819, while subsistence cost $2,440 62. The decreased number of patents is par- tially due to the fact that admission has been refused to many on the ground that there were not sufficient accommodations, and the Finance Committee is wondering how it is that therelatives of employes can can be boarded and lodged there while the needy sick cannot. ~ ‘The committee decided yesterday that it was not necessary to rebuild the hospital during the next fiscal year or provide in the tax levy for the same, and appointed ex-Supervisor A. F. Knorp to make an esti- mate of the amount necessary to place the ‘limildings in good repair and sanitary con- ition. ABOUT SEAL FISHERIES, A Joint Commission of England and America Is to Be Appointed. The Only Way to Make 100 Schooners Quit—Mrs. Short’s Work Among the Aleuts. Special Treasury Agent J. B. Crowley, who is in charge of the seal islands for the Government, who is registered at the Occidental Hotel, yesterday received in- structions to allow the taking of no more than 30,000 seals this year. Indeed, the North American Company may not take that many. It all depends on how the seals show up at the rookeries, 80 Mr. Crowley says. “I got my instructions from Secretary Carlisle this morning,” he said, *‘and he says not to let the number go over 30,000, I won’t do that, and it isowing to circum- stances how many short of that will be taken. Maybe there won't be over 15,000, ““The seals will be two, three and four year old bachelors, the skins weighing from six to twelve pounds each. Tf 30,000 can be found within a reasonable extent they will be taken. We can’t tell much about it till the seals begin to come into the rookeries. ““The killing will begin assoon as I ar- rivein June, and will last till probably August 10. I will sail on the North Amer- ican Company’s stenmer Homer to-night, accompanied by J. Stanley Brown, the agent of the company, and Assistant Special Agent James Judge of Columbus, Ohio. We will sail straight to Oonalaska, and then in to the Pribalov islands. “I understand, not officially, but from friends in Washington, that there will be some British and American commissioners sent to the seal islands this year to study the seals in a scientific way, with the idea of protecting the seals in future. I have no doubt the commission will be sent. It Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria. bhad mysteriously disap- | will probably be a commission of seven from the two countries. “The most important other thing in connection with the seals is the Dingley bill, introduced by Dingley of Maine, and which has passed the House. This bill gives the Government the right to go ahead and kill all the seals, if it should consider it best to do so. “I think it is & good bill., The fact is the United States has been harassed so long by British poachers that Dingley thought it might be a good thing to get in and kil off all the seals that could be | found. Inthis way we would end the | business once and for all. i “The seals are rapidly decreasing any way. Itisa case of Uncle Sam owning the ranch and John Bull gettirg the stock. John doesn’t own the place, but he comes in and gets the stuff off it. “I think probably it would be a good | idea just to wind the business up. There are not 200,000 seals there now altogether. In the old days the Alaska Commercial Company used to take 100,000 seals every year, but now we have got them thinned down so that we haven’t got scarcely any more. **There are from, 75 to 100 British schoon- ers plying about t:.e sealing-grounds reg- ularly every season. If we killed off the seals these schooners would have to stop and go into some other b e “We could let the rookeries go for proba- | bly ten years, and by the end of that time | the few seals that had escaped killing would bave started them up .again, and then we could take hold of the seals and | handle them. “T believe it is the only feasible way. I | shall stay up there till the last of Sep- | tember. There are no scientists to go along with us this time. Mrs. Short, an | elderly lady, who represents a charitable | organization in the East, is going on the steamer to investigate the condition of the | native Aleuts at Oonalask She has charge of that entire district.
