40 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1896. THE POOR MAN'S TURKEY DINNER Preparations Made by the Salvation Army for To-Day. Over Two Thousand Meal Tickets Have Been Gratuitously Issued. All the Provisions Have Be:en Paid For by Charitable People. Ensign W. P. Wood of the Salvation Army was the officer of the day atthe army’s temporary quarters on the north- west corner of New Montgomery and Howard streets yesterday and immedi- ately under his command was a corps of hard workers preparing the Christmas dinner for such of San Francisco’s poor as are deprived of the comforts of enjoying that meal over their own tables. To such, bhowever, as are thus un- fortunately situated the doors of the tem- porary barracks of the Salvation Army are open, provided they possess the neces- sary meal ticket which has been distrib- uted to those who have applied. At present there are over 2000 Christ- mas-dinner tickets issued, with more ap- plicants 1n line. To feed this number in comfort by seat- ing each and all at table there are eight Jong tables set on the second floor of the building, with benches running alongside of each table. On the surface is spread snow-white paper, which answers the pur- pose of table-cloths, and at each placeisa plate, knife and fork, with cup and saucer. Pepper and salt is set at convenient inter- vals witnin reach of all withcut the neces- sity of one troubling the other by the cus- tomary table etiquette of “Please pass the salt.” The first installment of 500 persons— men, women and children—will take their places at 12 o’clock to-day, and as soon as | they have disposed of their dinner they will retire, the tables will be reset and an- ‘other relay of 500 more will take their piaces and so on until all have been served. The provisions for feeding all those 2000 or more consists of 1000 pouads of turk. 250 pounds of veal, 550 loaves of bread, pounds of coffce, 20 pounds of tea, 250 | pounds of suzar, 700 pounds of candy for | ihe children, with an uniimited supply of plum pudding to go round. The children, immediately after enjoy- ing their dinner, will pass into a side room, where they will be entertained with stereopticon views of the scenes of the Holy Land and of the events of the jour- | neying of Christ while spreading the Gos- | pel. As each child passes through the doorway he or she wili be presented with a bag of candy. In getting up this dinner Adjutant Mec- Feeand his subordinates have labored long and arducusly to collect the funds with which the articles have been pur- | chased, as everything which will be used | to-day at the temporary barracks has been paid for in cash. In addition to this the army has extended its good offices to a great many other sources of charity. One particular feature of the work of the army 1s the maintaining of a lodging- bouse at 120 Oregon street in which there 25 beds kept for the accommodation of such men as have no means to pay fora night's lodging eisewhere. The rules of this institution are that an application must be made to the officer in charge, who will make a careful examination of the applicant’s claim and if he shows that he is poor and lonely, he is given a ticket for the sum of five cents, with which he gets aclean bed and a hot breakfast in the morning. But a repstition of this hospi- decidedly refused to the same in- nal 1f he should make a second ap- plication within a stated period. The expense to the army of conduecting this lodging-bouse is $200 a montb, but the five cents collected from each individ- nal reduces the expenditure from the treasury of the headquarters considera- biy. THE HIBERNIA BANK. Each new statement of the resources of this great institution shows that the mag- nitude of its operations increases with the unfailing regularity of the procession of the equinoxes. In the sworn statement of the condition end value of the assets and liabilities of tbe Hibernia Savings and Loan Society, November 80, 1896, we find the following colossal figures. ASSETS.

The magnificent building of the Hiber- nia Savings and Loan Society, at the cor- oer of Jones and McAllister streets, is occupied entirely by the bank and is a model of the chaste and beautiful in classic architecture. 1t is regarded as one o the city’s finest edifices.

A cutting story is being told at the ex- pense of a well-known Louisville man, wko is something of a beat as well as a bore. A wealthy man from the East was in the city a short time ago, and during his stay the Lounisville man did his best to et his friendship Freplnwry 16 borrow- ing a goodly sum of money. He showed the Eastern man all about the town, saw that he was admitted into the sacred pre- sincts of t!e clubs and took care that he fad a good time in all respects. The Easterner was charmed. He had often neard of Kentucky bospitality and his greatest expectations were discounted by what the Louisville man did for bim. He was no fool, however, and it was not wng before he learned that his slleged friend was simply laying a trap for him. One day, when the Louisville man shought his way to the rich man’s pocket- pook was clear, he broached the subject of & loan, doing this, of course, in the most wrtistic and seductive manner. The rich man appeared much impressed, but when she story was ended he said simply: “Excuse me a minute while I go across the street and get a drink.” 8 When he returned the Louisville man 1ad vanished. The coldness of the East- [ $33,518,132 78 2,693,706 99 i erner who could znnounce cold-bloo {ed that he was going to drink alone had got under the cuticle of the schemer.—Louis- ville Commercial. A POWERFUL BANK. It Ranks Among the Great Financial Institutions of the State. The history of the Nevaaa Bank of San Francisco would form an important and interesting portion of the history of this City. Itisregarded both from its careerand the character and fortunes of its founders as being more typically Californian than any other finarcial institution we possess. It is one of the golden links which con- nect the prosaic present with the palmy days of the bonanza. It is one of the oldest chartered com- mercial banks in the City and was founded by the bonanza kings in 1875. Fifteen years afterward, in April, 1890, it was re- organized by Isaias W. Hellman witha paid-up capital of §3,000,000. The results of the new regime were conspicuously ap- parent. Within the short space of three years the surplus and undivided profits attained the proportions of more taan $714,000. Although its stock has never been listed on the board it now commards a premium of about 40 per cent. These are facts which speak volumes for the management of the bank. Isaias W. Hellman, during his adminis- tration as president, has won the confi- dence of the public. His acumen and familiarity with financial questions make him an authority often consulted on these subjects. He is easy of access by mem- bers of the press, who are indebted to him for valuable opinions on matters of public policy. This measure of public confidence was manifested in a striking degree when it became known that Mr. Hellman would undertake the management of the bank. His advent was like oil upon the troubled waters at that critical stage of the bank’s affaira. Individuals and firms of stand- ing and power in the financial and com- mercial world quickly came forward to the number of nearly 200 and freely sub- scribed for the stock. Mr, Hellman is president of the Farm- ers’ and Merchants’ Bank of Los Ange- les, and has taken a leading part in the management of other financial institu- tions of Southern Californis, which have had a successful career. The annual statement of the Nevada Bank of S8an Francisco, September 30, 1896, showed total assets $8,497,95756. The capital is $3,000,000, surplus $500,000, un- divided profits $214,237 51, due depositors $3,645,402 82. due banks and bankers $581,- 19807, sterling credits $549,276 58 and other liabilities $7842 58. It does a general commercial business and issues letters of credit available in all parts of the world. Its New York correspondents are the American Exchanze and Importers’ and Traders’ National Bank. Its London pankers are the Union Bank of Loadon, limited, while its bankers in Paris are the Comptoir National d’Escompte de Paris. The officers of the Nevada Bank are: Isaias W. Hellman, president; John F. Bigelow, vice-president; D. B. Davidson, cashier; George Grant, assistant cashier. Following are the directors: Jobn W. Mackay, Isaias Hellman, Robert Watt, H. L. Dodge, James L. Flood, Henry F. Alien, Levi Strauss, John F. Bigelow, Lewis Gerstle, C. de Guigne, D. N, Walters. SOME OURIOUS REWARDS. Uncle Sam’s Postoffice Pays Oaly for Live Robbers. . Bome very curious cases have been de- cided by the law department of the Post- office Department relating to rewards for the capture of robbers of postoffices. Mr. Milliken bas just rendered a decision against a cl ant at California, Mo., where a postoffice safe was robbed. In such cases tne department pays $200 each for the conviction of the persons engaged in the robbery, There were five persons concerned in the affair, but the authori- ties bad no ciew to the men. If hap- pened, however, that the guilty persons were in a saloon scme time afterward, and one of them gotinto a dispute with a farmer and a lively row ensued, in whici the farmer chot and killed the man. The other men ran out, but were captured by other persons, not because they were post- office robbers, but because they were en- gaged 1n the row. It turned out on examination that the man who was killed was the ringleader of the robbers and had the bulk of the booty on his person. His death resulted in proving complicity in the robbery upon the other four men. The men who cap- tured the four have been allowed $300. The farmer made application for $200, but it is held that the reward being of- fered for the ‘“‘arrest and conviction” eof the robbers he cannot be paid the amount. The dead robber was neither arrested "nor convicted of the offense. Mr. Milliken said that it was rather hard luck, but under tLe law he could do nothing else. He recalled a case in Oklahoma where there had been a robbery and three noto- rious desperadoes were pursued, and after a fierce encounter one was killed, another mortaily wounded and the other captured. The dead robber in this instance was the leader, and had nearly all the stolen prop- erty on his person. The others were tried and convicted and the wounded mon died shortly afterward. The reward of §400 was paid for ti:e cap- ture of the two, but although Mr, Milli- ken reported in favor of paying the reward for the dead robber, it was found not be in accordance with the law, and was refused. Postoffice robbers must be taken alive in order 1o secure rewards.— ‘Washington Post. IMMENSE EGGS OF THE EPIORNIS. Specimens Now in Some of the Euro- pean Museums. In the. British Museum, London, the museum of the Academy of Science at Paris and the National Museum at Vienna, and in the several institutions for the advancement of science, there may be seen specimens of birds’ eggs which are almost as large as a two-gallon jug. These eggs are laid by the epiornis, an extinct and gigantic bird of Madagascar. The cubic bulk of these eggs is eight times that of the egg of ‘‘the silly bird of the Sahara,” which means that each of them is equal in point of capacity to 150 hens’ L g2S. This first discovery of these interesting relics of past times was made by the cap- tain of a merchant vessel, which had stopped at a port on the northeastern coast of Madagascar to trade with the na- tives. During the stay at this point men- tioned the curious vessels used by the na- tives for water vases attracted the atten- tion of the captain., Upon investigation it was found that these old utensils were in reality gigantic egg shells cut in halves. Upon question- ing the water-carriers in regard to the bird that laid the eggs and tue place whers they were procured, the captain was given to understand that the bird itself was un- known, but that the eggs were discovered in a large sand bank some distance away in the up-country and conld not be found elsewhere, to the knowledge of the natives. An offer to purchase all that could be procured soon resulted in the discovery of several fine specimens, all of which fell into the hands of Isadore G. St. Hilaire, the French naturalist. The curiosities were afterward distributed among the largest museums.—Hartford Times. . DANCED UNDER THE MISTLETOE Friday Fortnightly Christ- mas Cotillon Last Evening. Miss Genevieve Goad Introduces Several New and Pretty Figures. The Fechheimer-Lillenfeld Nuptials on Tuesday—Moore Dance To-Night. By general request the popular Friday Fortnightlys reconsidered their primary decision to hold no meeting in Christmas week, and the result was the very success- ful cotillon of last night at Lunt’s Hall, There were several cther departures be- sides having the dance on a Thursday evening. The most noticeable of the pleasant innovations was the pretty deco- rations of the hall. Christmas berries and ferns and wreaths of holly, with here and there a spray of mistletoe, gave to the pretty dance hall a decidedly holiday aspect. Then the hours were later and conse- quently the beaux and belles took the unusual privileze at a Forinightly dance of arriving a little later. Miss Genevieve Goad led the dancers through the fascinating fizures of the german. In her pleasant duties she was assistea by Addison Mizner, Miilon Latham and Robert Eyre. Miss Goad introduced several figures, among which were the hoop figure, the Christmas tree and the wand and beils, an orizinal and extremely pretiy figure. 1t was the first time that Miss Goad had ever led a cotitlon ana at ihe conclusion of the dance her friends overwhelmed her with congratulations for the able manner in which she acquitted herself. The young laules of the firstset includea Miss Jessie Hobart, Miss Mumie McNutt, Miss Laura Scott, Miss Juliette Williams, Miss Ethel Rodgers, Miss Kaie Sulisbury, Miss Helen Hopkins and Miss Caro Crockett. The next dance of the Fortnightlys will be held on the evening of the 15th of Jan- uary. Itwill be a military cotil.on, and several West Point novelties are prom- iue«(ii. Lieutenants Kilburn and Nolan will lead. The wegding of Miss Rose Fechheimer, dsughter of Charies Fechbeimer, and Alfred Luienfeld wi:l be ccleorated on ¢ ‘Tuesday afternoon, December 29, at the bride’s resitence on Broadway. Owing to the recent deatn of the bride’s mother the ceremony is to be extremely private, and oniy the immediate famiiies of the contracting parties will be present. The bride will be attended by her little cousins Miss Anna Licbenthal and Miss Edith Greenebaum. The ceremony wiil be cele- brated at 3 o’clock and the Rev. Dr. Voor- sanger wiil officiate. Miss Jennie Moore will ent-rtain 125 of ber young friends at a cotillon this evening at the Verein Club rooms, on the corner of Post and Leavenworth sireets. Miss Moore, assisted by Mrs. Marcus Gerstle, wiil lead. Mrs. D. M. Deimas and Miss Antoinette Delmas are occupying apartments on the Rue Cristoior Colombo in Paris. Mr. and | Mrs, Fitzgerald Kenney (uee Delmus), | who were recently the guests of Mrs. | Deimas, are now at Monte Carlo. Mr. | and Mrs. Delmus contemplate spending Easter in Rome. Mrs. Rounsevilie, Wildman will leave for a tour ol Mexico aiter the holidays. THE ANGL{-CALIFORNIAN BANK: { The union of English and Californian interests for the purpose of doing a local | commercial and foreign exchange busi- ness was the origin of the San Francisco | branch of the Anglo-Californian Bank | (Limited), which was incorporated April 5, | 1873. “The bank has contributea its share to the development and prosperity of our State as well as having achieved a success for itself. Since its organization it has shipped immense quantities of bullion to China, 1ndia and other foreign countries. The capital stock is $6,000,000, of which $3,000,000 has been subscribed and $1,500,- 000 paid in. The last report of the Bank Commissioners testifies to the/ prosperous condition of the institution. The headquarters of the bank arein Lendon, and the business in this City is under the immediate control of Ignatz Steinhart and P. N. Lilienthal. A. L. Beligman is assistant cashier. Following are the directors in London: Isaac Seligman, E. H. Lushington, Joseph Sebag, J. Simon and H. H. Fowler, M.P. The high standine of the Anglo-Califor- nian Bank in the financial world is due to the wise management of these financiers. . BICYOLES AND DRESS OLOTHES. | Flannel Shirts and Tweed Suits Appear at English Dinner Tables. Cycling is exercising a tremendous in- fluence, and it is one which, on the whole, will not be recuperative, but will have the reverse effect so far as men’s trade is con- cerned. What is the point? Why, the men in town are dressing as they did last summer, in tweeds and flannels, instead of black morning coats, frock coats, sum- mer chesterfields, silk hats, fancy gloves, patent leaiber boots, etc. These have prac- ticaily vanished. The West End trade said it bad never made so many tweeds, 80 few extra fine coats. All this bhad had a bad effect both on profit and returns. It is not fancy or imagination; we have stated the actual truth without exaggera- tion. Again, what a tremendous effect the tweed caps and the straw hats have bad on the silk hat trade. 3 Again, less return and a limited tradein the more costly lines. This freedom in IE3ITIEIT3 dress has led to'a demand for special ma- terials, elastics, soft and withal gentle- manly. This kind of dress is donned in the morning that a man may cycle to his club to pay a call, to zo to lunch, for which, by the way, he used to dress up, and in many cases he has changed to flan- nel and to colored shirts instead of the costly and elaborate dress white ones. ‘We may like it or not, but the tendency has been greatly in the same direction be- fore cycling predominated it does to- day. As a sport it has come to stay, and it is swaying a vaster influence than any man or woman can nowv imagine on the styles, the material and the trade. Itis hot altogether hopeful. Decidedly it is getting many into freerer ways. Not long ago if a man went out with lady he must put on a certain kind of gar- ment, far more costly than a bicycling suit. To-day he sails forth, whether a town or country gentleman, in a soft, tweed kniek;?ooker suit, till he has to doff it for dinner, or as likely as not he does not taks it off atall. The straight- ened, particular, high drawn etiquette of society has not had a shock in all this, but has welcomed it, and is welcoming it still; is looking forward to its development in the future.” Thisis palpable. Therefore we are not to expect the oid days to re- turn. Men are going largely to wear tweeds, and the fetters once broken in England they will follow on the conti- nent and in America, and it wili lead to cheapening of cloth, though this is hardly necessary.—Loundon Tailor. hrefreienireiesiasiestriesiaiesireesirfeshrsirsrcirsirsfairsaiesiantedafresirfrshrsfrsirsfrsprsfrsieshrsfashrofrpesfairafecirefesiesioste ells, .zzryo & c S ?ank, LOo@anS..c.cceciuuiinee R ok g R ok R R e o Real Estate.........

GOODFELLOW, General Attorney THE LAWYERS OF PARIS They Have a Hard Time Compared With American Members of the Bar. Lawyers in France, eccording toa Ro- chester gentleman who has just returned from a tiyyee years’ sojourn in Paris, c.lo not have such an easy time as they do in this country. There, far from encourag- ing the bright young men of the iand to enter the legal profession, it wouid seem that they are discouraged and every ob- stacle thrown in their path, the result generally being that it is a rich man who can be a lawyer. “Under the regnlations at present in force there,” says this Rochester gentle- man, ‘barristers, after they have kept their terms and passed thelr bar examina- tions, have to pass through a sort of three years’ novitiate, during which they have the title of auvocate, but have no voice in the deliberations 6f the council of disci- line, and are not inscribed on the rolls. ‘hey can plead during the three years of robation, but it is a sort of empty privi- lege in nine cases out of ten. hen an eminent barrister mn France employs a junior it is generally some one inscribed on the rolls; should he employ the &ro- bationer the honor thus accorded him must suffice. He does not pay him. “But he must live, and here is where the problem comes in, which is much more easily solved by the American or English young lawyer than it is by his Parisian brother. In the first place, there is the outlay for his gown or beretta, which comes close to 80 francs, unless he prefers to hire it at the rate of 10 cents per day. ‘Then he must engage some one to teach him deportment, for this is an essential quahfication in this land where King Etiquette rules with an iron band. The services of a professor of the con- servatory must also be called in to train bis voice, unless nature has been kind to him in that respect. But these expenses are mere incidents. - “He must above all not live in small chambers and rent dingy offices. Poverty is a poor key to open the pockets of clients. The Parisian barrister has personal inter- views with his ciients, and the direct con- sequence of these interviews 1s that he must be able to show them into a nicely furnished reception-room and private office, though he may sleep in a garret. He cannot well answer the bell himself, hence he must employ a servant, even if he has no money with which to pay one. The visitor must not see bare walls, con- sequently there must be a display of a well-stocked law library. The client will not consider that a lawyer's library is often a luxury, and tbat the barrisier’s studies might just as weil be pursued at the St. Genevieve Library, but he must be able to glance atso many calf-bound vol- umes. “Voltaire well summed up the essentials of a French lawyer when he said: ‘An advocate is a man who for three years studies the laws of Theodosius and Jus- tinian in order to learn the common law of Paris, and who, having matriculated at last, bas the right to plead for money, provided he has a strong voice.. The only vu{’! would modify Voltaire's definition is adding that the modern French client does not even expect to be asked a fee, although he requires just as much of his advocate as they did in Voltaire's time. The youn: practitioner does not hint at such a thing as a retainer, least of all ask for it. The regulations forbid it. “Worst of all, the young barrister, once inscribed on the rolls, has to pay a license. This is computed, not by the amount of meney he may earn, but by the rent of the apartment he occupies. “The result is that there are hundreds of impe. cunious but worthy young men who can- not meet the charges. In France no career is open to them after they have wasted at least six years in the study of law, excepting ofiom'nnlhm and politics, Forty per cent of the present Chamber of Deputies are barristers, and that body in consequence is sometimes alluded to as the Palais de Justice burlesque.”—] ter Union and uanQur.'q i =3t 3IE 3T IE S35 11T | | | 8% XHFEFHFEFETELBERET ¥ L o e e 5% FEETFR SR SR IVIFT ISR SRS MUTUAL SAVINGS BANK OF SAN FRANCISCO, ! i 33 Post Street, Below Kearny, Mechanics’ Institute Building. a4 GUARANTEED CAPITAL PAID-UP CAPITAL - - - - President, JAMES D.
