Mementoes of the Present Were Handed Town to Posterity—Morning Church Services. | The laying of the cornerstone of the new Maria Kip Orphanage was consum- mated yesterday afternoon, the eighteenth Sunday after Trinity. The new building, which is to tower | high at Seventh avenue and Lake street, | will be in all manner suitable to proverly accommodate the parentless children who | are daily increasing on the hands of the | board of managers. When the Maria Kip Orphanage, in 1888, separated from the Bishop Armitage Orphanage it had but fourteen girlsto care for. Now five score of young girls from little tottlings to young misses are being watched over and educated by this model charity institution. The new ouilding, the cornersione of which was laid with such ceremony, is al- most at the gate of the Presidio and not very far away from the cross that stands sentinel-like at Lone Mountain. Rev. R. C. Foute of Grace Church was the master of ceremonies who intoned the services, that were entirzly of a choral na- ture. Right Rev. W. F. Nichols, president of the board of trustees, conducted the ser- | vices proper. In this he was assisted by Right Rev. William M. Barker, D.D., | Bishopof Olympia; Right Rev.John Mills | Kendrick, D.D., Bishop of Arizona; Right | Rey. Abiel Leoward, D.D., Bishop or Ne- | vada, and Right Rev. Joseph H.

The visiting Episcopalian prelates de- livered sermons yesterday at St. Steven’s, St. Paul’s, St. Luke’s and St. Peter’s. Bishop Johnson spoke at St. Steven’s. He took for his text the following: ““And without faith it is impossible to please him”’—Hebrews, xi:6. The Bishop in the course of his sermon said: “Faith is the dominating influeace in the world. It is conviction, and convie- tion is the thing that shapes our lives. It gives the variety of expression to the human face, and some persons have a belief that by concentration of thought all matter is under the domination of the buman will.” Bishop Leonord spoke at St. Paul’s. His text was, *“Who Is My Neighbor?’'—St. Luke, x:29. The Bishop set forth the ele- ments of neighborhoodness. Hefsaid that this did not constitute nearness of resi- fienoe, but a necessity of sympathy and ove. Bishop Barker delivered a sermon at St. Luke’s. . His subject was, *The Law of Growth and Deterioration as Seen in the Physical Life Applied to the Spiritnal”’— St. Peter, v:10. The substance of the Bishop’s sermon was in illustration of the words, “Be ye perfect.” _ He gave a number of scientific illustra- tions and a quotation from Darwin, in which Darwin said: “He had lost the power to appreciate poetry, music and art because he had rot used these faculties.”’ Bishop Kendrick spoke at St. Peters on “Our duty to God, to our neighbors and ourselves”—St. Matthew, xxii:38. In the evening a speeill musical service was given at Grace Church. PLAY AND PLAYERS. The Attractions That Are ‘Announced by the Managers to Their Patrons for This Evening. The much written about and long-looked for play, “The Prisoner of Zenda,” which 1s a dramatization of Anthony Hope's novel, is to be presented at the Baldwin Theater this evening, with elaborate scen- ery and correct accessories, James K. Hackett and Isabel Irving in leading parts. “Trilby” by the Palmer & Brady Com- | Daly, “The Big Bonanza.” veloped some excellent talent. This will be preceded by *‘In Honor Bound,” a one- act comedietta. Miss La Faille will make her debut. The play billed at the Grand Opera- house for this evening is one by Augustin It is a play that deals with fortune on Wall street and has a touch of love and romance in it The play will be carefully staged and L. R. Stcekwell will appear in the cast. Balfe’s romantic opera ‘‘Sataneila, or the Power of Love,” with its charming and ever popular music, will be presented at the Tivoli Opera-house this evening, when Elvia Crox Seabrooke, reputed to be a good and vivacious soubrette, will make | her first appearance. .

PARK AND BEACH. There Was an Immense Number of People Out Enjoy ng the Fine Day. It has been many a Sunday since there was such a number of people at the park and at the ocean beach as yesterday. The walks, drives and resting-places in the park were crowded with all classes of people, wno were out enjoving the de- lighttul day; all the seats in Concert Val- ley were occupied by lovers of music, who were charmed with the several numbers rendered by the band. Those numbers that attracted ths greatesi attention and won_the most applause were *'I Masna- dieri,” and variations on the picolo by A. Logar, and Sousa’s *‘Three Quotations”’— “The King of France,”” “I, Too, Was Born in Arcadia’ and “In Darkest Africa.” In the conservatory hundreds admired a new orchid which is now in bloom. It is known botanically as the Odontaglos- sone Grandi, but in common English it is “the baby plant.”” In the center of the blossom there is a perfect representation in miniature of a Chinese baby, *‘and there is not a Jady who views it,” said Head Gardener Holbrow, “who does not exclaim, ‘How perfect.” ”’ Stow Lake was alive with boats and rowere as it had not been for a long time, and rowing was an enjoyable exercise, the majority of those at the oars being ladies. Almost every ope who owns a bicycle was on kLis or her wheel, many in groups. They were out getting in shape for the parade to-night. The Grant monument is still covered, and there is no knowing when it will be unveiled. It appears that some time ago a well-known citizen promised to donate $500 toward erecting the monument, but before a call was made for that amount he died, and as he did not leave any provi- sion in his will to meet that obligation the executors do not feel called upon to pay it. Itissaid that it is a matter of that keeps the cloth on the monument. The work of rearnnfing the museum is advancineg and the installation of the many exhibits will be commenced this week, Director-General de;Young, wno recently returned from Europe full of museum ideas, was a visitor to the place yesterday, making many suggestions, The ocean beach for more than a mile was lined with people inhaling the salt sea air, and in the baths there were many thousands being amused by the antics of the professional swimmers and races by amateurs.

In fact, there never was so much real experi- ence crowded into a few hours of one's life as in ours to-day.” \ This was the unanimous verdict of the jolly fishing party composed of members of the Knights of St. Patrick and their friends who dared the unknown—to them —terrors of the deep in the vicinity of the Farallon Islandsy esterday.

O'Brien, Con Bagley. At 8 o'clock yesterday morning they boarded the Vigilant of the Spreckels tug line and Captain Randall took them swiftly down the bay and out through the Golden Gate. After they had seen to it that the baskets ot sandwiches and cases of beer were safely stowed on board the fishers, as they went sailing out in the west, as the sun went high, to.d miraculoustales of catches along lfiv-ry torest streams, Each man’s story was better than the preceding one, and the annals of domestic fishery grew in grandeur, ‘While the historians narrated the Vigi- lant was drawing near the bar. Presently the tug’s forefoot stood on the first swell and the body of the vessel went down, down in the trough of the sea and the feelings of the fishermen came up, up until great reaches of time and distance seemed to lie between '“f and passenger. The sea was unusual J rough, and old voyagers who had sailed unwiltingly over the ocean bowed down on the low rail of the tug and poured out libations to the deep. A heartiess wag—one of the few who escaped, looked over the scene of human woe and murmured: ‘One by one the roses fail, one by ope they fade and die.’’ His quotation was fitting, but the sufferers on their knees prayed that he would fall overboard. When the Vigilant got iato the compar- atively smooth water under the lea of the Farallon light most of the stricken party so far recovered as to get their lines over- board and go a-fishine. Some, however, did not take the trouble 1 to bait their hooks. but sat in their places and turned sad, lingering eyes toward the tiny vellow dot of island before them. The strong wind would soon drift the tug off the cod bank and out into rough water, where the terrible sickness would come over them again, and the fishlines would swing, many of them, unattended. But the Vigilant 1n quiet water, they would brace up and take hold of their tackle again. - They were heroes every one of them. They all seemed to develop a desire for lunch, and would desert their lines for the eatables, Consequently when the fish on the bank were not biting well the fishers on deck, led by Judge Frank Murasky, School Director Barrett and Dr. Hill were biting well into the store of sandwiches. Supervisor Dimond with his mayoralty bumblebee buzzing industriously in his hat told with a candiaate’s unction vivid stories of the stormy main which went far to mitigate the miseries of the seasick. Two camera fiends had some way drifted into the company and when a luckless fisher would fall prostrate they would take a snapshot at him and preserve the scene of his distress for all time. When the party reached the Ciiy on their return they mustered just an even dozen of fish as'their day’s nooking and out of this number Dr. Barrett lost his string overboard as he was walking up the gang-plank from the tug. *But they got a lot of valuable sea experience if 1it- tle fish. SAW THE SERPENT. Commodore O’Riley and Party Had a Gay Fishing Trip on the Bay. Colonel R. J. O’Riley and his salt-water disciples of rockcod and divers kinds of cod embarked yesterday morning on the good ship Brisk for a fishing trip to the | $38, principal “‘yanking’’ grounds on the bay. A visit was paid to Devils Point, where 0ld Nick was played with the denizens of the deep. Then Fort Point was touched. In fact every point on the bay where sea fishes congregate on Sunday was visited by the gay and festive Waltomans. Among the party were: T. Cline, Abe Kohiman, o, Barney, William Schutzler, J. Durkin, B. Lennon, E. Dailey, Pete Ahern, a protege of G. B. Martin, and others, who were so enthused over fishes and fish feed that they forgot to leave their signatures with the colonel of the fishing staff. y Great sport was enjoyed, however, and many cods which had seen better days were displayed in evidence last evening at Commodore Ferguson’s angling resort on Market street. Colonel O'Riley states positively that he had seen the much-talked-of sea serpent with a silver dollar in its mouth swim- ming at an enormous rate of speed to- wards Hearst’s Point in Sausalito, but Captain Cline is of the opinion that the commodore was mistaken, as at the time the serpent was seen O’'Riiey was enfilgod in feeding fishes which had gathered around the craft in anticipation of a holi- d-}g mess. ish are said to be close observers, and when they had seen the silvery color of the commodore’s face they concluded that it was only a question of time when O’Riley would disgorge, and they guessed correctly. “This should be conclusive evidence,” said Mr. Cline, “that the white metal has a sickly appearance, which is portrayed on‘liv in'the faces of those who are bilious and in need of protection.” ————————— Pioneer Kowing Club.

BOATS BUMP O THE WATER FRONT The Duxbury Pleasure-Bent Smashes Into' the Anna. A Large Number of Excursion- ists Tempted by the Fine Weather. THE LUCY D WAS NOT SEIZED. Had a Quick Voyage From Bering Sea Driven by Northwesterly Winds. Owing to the pleasant weather yesterday there were an unusually large number of excursions to different points on the bay. The Hetty B and the Amy both took out fishing parties. George A. Knight went out in his Ainlete for a spin and Warren & Malley’s Dirigo carried a party out for a pleasure trip. There were also quite a number of visitors to the Comanche, the naval reserve boat. Yesterday afternoon the British ship Rahane, from Newcastle, was towed in front of the Folsom-street wharf. She came with a good gait across the Pacific, making the run in 54 days. She carriesa cargo of 2462 tons of coal. Captain Collins reports she met variable winds on her pas- sage until within 200 miles of this coast, when she encountered a strong northwest wind that carried away some of her sails. The bark Oakland came down from Oakland creek in the afternoon. She has been lying up there for the past year and will be taken to the Spear-street dock to be painted. The Peru sailed for Europe loaded with wheat, and the Norwegian tramp steamer Lyderhorn, with a cargo of grain, sailed for Antwerp. The bark Louis Pasteur came down from Vallejo City yes- terday and anchored in the stream. The bark Lon sailed for Mexico and the Agre- mont Castle was taken from the Lombard- street wharf and sent on her way to Pors Costa, where she will receive a cargo of wheat for Europe. % 4 Early yesterday morning the gasoline schooner Duxbury, bound out on a fishing excursion for the Farallon Islands, col- lided with the scow schooner Anna, which was anchored near Meiggs ‘Wharf. The Anna had her bowsprit carried com- pletely away and the entire upper bul- warks of the Duxbury were torn out. Frank Lloyd, a boy aboard the Duxbury, bad his right hand severely crushed, so badly, in fact, that amputation of his hand may be necessary. The acting revenue cutter Walter Hackett was also 11l starred. She raninto the Merchants’ Exchange boaraing offi- cer’s boat, badly damaging it. 4 The sealing schooner Lucy D came into port yesterday morning. She was only two weeks on her voyafie from Bering Sea. She has been out since last February, and reports a catch of 689 seals for the season. She spoke the sealing schooners Alton and Rattler near Alaska. They were on the point of starting tor this port. A report was around the front that the Lucy D was seized while in the Bering Sea by Government cutters. This the mate denies. He says that nothing of any in- terest occurred during the voyage. About 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon an unknown drunken ‘man wandering about on the schooner Novo, lying at Mission- street wharf No. 1, fell overboard. People standing near witnessed his trouble and threw planks and ropes to him, but he was unable to help himself and was drowned. The body was found by Harry Johnson, a boatman. SANTA FE MAY BUY IT. Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Attorneys Here on Business. Ex-Judge C. N. Sterry of Los Angeles, chief counsel of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad and of the Southern California Railroad, arrived at the Palace Hotel yesterday with several other attorneys of the Atlantic and Pacific, which has been in the hands of a receiver for some time. In the party are Neill B. Field of Albu- querque, N. M.,jattorney for the trustee of the trust company of the first mortgage, and Charles Monroe of Los Angeles, attor- ney for the trustee of the second mortgage trust company. They have come here to appear to-day before Judge Erskine Ross in the United States Circuit Court to arrange about the payment by the Southern Pacific Com- pany of taxes for one year, amounting to ,000, on the road between Mojave and The Needles.
