SRS e e ESTRELLA PARLOR. Estrella Parlor, N. 8, G. W,, gave a very suc- | cessful bazar in the Native Sons’ Hall on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

From the sign on his delivery wagon his name is Charley Ah Kem; his profes- sionis that of laundryman. His outfit stood on Union street, near Fillmore, and in a few moments Charley Ah Kem came out of alarge building which has the ap- pearance of a rooming-house. He w: loaded with bundles, so many of them that when he reached the sidewalk he let them drop. - Evidently being one.of those creatures who object to hiting large packages or lifting weighty ones, he picked up the bundles two at a time, one in each hand, and carried them to his wagon. On are- turn trip he discovered that he had dropped a man’s collar and one cuff; one was white and the other pink, and as he picked them up he seemed at a loss to know which bundle they came from, for he went back to his wagon and, taking the two last thrown in, looked at their contents, but did not appear to have made up his mind into which one he should place the articles he had picked up. Once he conctuded to put both in one bundle, but he hesitated, and made a movement to put them in the other; still, he hesitated, and there was a look of despair on his countenance. In a mo- ment, however, that gave way to a smile; he had solved the difficulty. He placed the cuff in one bundle and the collar in the otter. 1f it should happen that two of Charley Ah Kem's customers each receive one pink cuff this will explain how the goods be- came mixed. Foresight Without Memory A Strange Phenomenon Treated From a Theosophical Point of View. To understand the explanation that theosophy has to offer ior a loss of mem- ory, accompanied by acquirement of power to forecast future events, it is neces- sary to recognize the fact that mind has an existerice apart from all brain action. Many other phenomena that puzzle the modern psychologist, such as trance, thought-transference, mind-reading, clair- voyance ‘and hypnotism, are equally de- pendent on this fact for an explanation, the theory of molecular change utterly failing to account for them. Indeed, all these phenomena may be claimed as evi- dence of the independent existence of mind. Briefly, then, theosophy tells us that man is a thinking soul who uses a physi- cal body in order that he may come into touch with matter. Within the physical, interpenetrating all its parts, is an ethereal form which serves as the link, or medi- um, between thoughtand brain. In other words, mind has its true seat in the ethe- real form. What we usually call mind is simply our ability to exercise intelligesnce through the brain. If the brain be in- jured the thinker, or soul, may be unable to use it, just as a musician may be un- able to extract music from a worthless in- strument. The powers of each lie latent for the time being. It is also said that the soul has many powers which are too subtle to be exercised in brain tissue. But when brain action is stilled, as in sleep, in trance and in some forms of nervous affections, certain of these powers are manifested. The ability to forecast the futureis one of the best known of these powers and is allied to the abnor- mal mental perception of some hypno- RING THE MERRY WEDDING BELLS, Hymen’s Torches Kept Glowing During' the Past Week. German Sccety Attends the Schulz- Planz Marriage at the Verein. The Phelan-McKee and Cardoza.Denis Nuptials—Interesting Berke- ley Ceremony. One of the most important events in German society cireles this month was the wedding of Miss Ida Schulz, youngest daughter of William Schulz, a leading merchant of Virginia City, Nev., and Theodore Planz, & young business man of thisCity and a prominent member of the San Francisco Turn Verein. Miss Schulz was one of the belles of Virginia City during her residence there, but for the past year she has made her home in this City. The wedding took place in Turn Verein Hall on the 2d inst., and was an elaborate affair. Promptly at 8:30 P. M. Professor William Cel- larius opened the ceremony with the “Bridal Chorus,” from “Tannhauser,” and as the sweet strains of Wagner’s famous composition floated through the hall the bridal party slowly nrpuured, led by Messrs. Herman Alpen, M. Wallenstein, Frank Krause and Leonard Planz, who acted as ushers, followed by the family of the groom, viz.: Mr. and Mrs. A. Winterberg, Mr. and Mrs. H, C. Schaertzer and Mr.and Mrs. Henry Planz, father and mother of the groom. Then the bridesmaids—Misses Clara and Minnie Trost and Christian Hentel—followed, after whom came Miss Emma Planz, the maid of honor, preceding the bride, who was es- corted by her father. The party was met at the upper end of the hall by the groom, his best man, Fred Mnller, and Herr Cecil Leiss, of the German Free con- gregation, who performed the ceremony. After the ceremony the party repaired to the banquet-hall, where a sumptuous weddin supper was served. Toasts and speeches, o directed to the future happiness of the couple, were freely made and heartily responded to. Mr. and Mrs. Planz left the following morn- ing for Santa Cruz, and thence for Southern California, whence they expect to return early next week. They will reside temporarily with Mrs, H.C. Schaertzer, the groom’s sister, at 52535 Geary street. A very pretty home wedding, at which -only the immediate relatives of the contracting parties were present, took place Wednesday evening, August 5, at the home of the bride's mother. The contracting parties were Miss An- nie Phelan, a young lady well and fayorably known in S8an” Francisco society, and Samuel McKee, & gentleman prominent in political and insurance circles. The parlors were tast {ully decorated with smilax and cut flowe: and a bounteous repast was served. The wed- ding gifts were numerous and costly. The wedding of Miss Daisy I Cardoza and Frank V. Denis took place at_the residence of the bride’s parents, 922 Haight street, on Wednesday evening. The ceremony was per- formed by the R A. Ramm before a larz number of friends and relatives. Thomas Quaide was the best man and Miss Nell Mayle tne maid of honor. The house was tastefully decorated. The happy couple were the re- cipients of many valuable presents. Mr. and Mrs. Denis have left for Lake Tahoe, where the honeymoon will be spent. The wedding of J. C.Silberstein of St. Helena and Miss Gertrude F. Coney took place Sun- day, August 9, at the residence of the bride’s mother, 528 Hayes street. In Golden Gate, on Wednesday evening, George F. Langford was married to Miss Alice Love of San Francisco. The ceremony ¥as tiormed by Rev. E. H. Hayden of Sania osa. The young couple will reside in San Francisco. & NEW TO-DAY. tized subjects. In the case of Franklin Hart it would seem that the brain was partially be- numbed, perhaps temporarily, by asphyx- iation. The ethereal brain not sharing in this ' condition still acts, and as it is not now overpowered by the ruder vibrations of the physical, is able to make its report. The reason why he forgets the past is be- cause it related to his physical life which registered its impressions on the physical brain. As that is dulled it responds slowly to mental effort, making it difficult torecall those experiences. Mercie M. THIRDS, ———————— NEAT STREE£1-CLEANERS.
