Two Vessels From Hawaii and Sev- eral Coasters Were Ou'side in a Buoch Yesterday. All classes ot vessels bound north are baving an unusually hard time of if, and | & big fleet from Newcastle, N. 8. W., Ha- ! waii and the Orient is now overdue. The Zealandia 1. fair example of what they have had to suffer, and she was two days overdue owing to the heavy northwester that bas prevailed for over two week. At noon yesterday it was blowing forty- nine miles an hour at Point Reyes and sixteen miles an hour at Point Lobos, while at 3 P. M. it was blowing sixty-four | miles at the former place and iorty-eight at the latter, and still gathering in force. The sea was a very heavy one, and all the vessels that made port had a yery hard time of it. Steamers from the north came near breaking the record, and the State of Cali- fornia made the run from Astoria in thir- ty-seven hours, her own best performance being thirty-six and a half hours. During a very heavy norther three years ago, { however, the Columbia made the same run in thirty-five hours. On the other side of the case the Pacific Mail Company’s Pern from Hongkong via Yokohama and Honolulu is now several days behind time, and the samecom- pany’s City of Sydney should have got in vesterday morning. On her way to Hong- kong the Peru lost a couple of the blades | of her propeller and she reached her des- tination several days late. The damages were repaired, but there may have been a flaw in the cssting somewhere and the propeller may have something to do with the slow passage. In the case of the City of Sydney it is undoubtedly ths strong head winds that are keeping her back. She is not heavily laden and the north- wester would take a great hold on her. Among the sailing vessels that got in yesterday were the barkentine Archer from Honolulu in nineteen days and the schooner Jennie Wand in an eichteen- day trip from Kahului. The latter is one of ihe best trips of the season, as the R. P, Rithet and Alden Besse are both out twenty-five days from Honolulu, and the crack brig J. D. Spreckels took almost that time to get here from the islands. The Archer and Wand were in company with several crait of d:fferent description off the heaas yesterday, and as the wind was fair they ull sailed in, much to the discomfiture of the towboat captains. Several other vessels were seen in the dis- tance, but when the gale began to increase in fury they put about and made for the opea sea. In the early morning a fleet of about fifteen scow schooners started for points on theSacramento and San Joaquin rivers. They got as far as the Chickens sll right, but then the storm came down upon them in force and all baa to run for shelter un- der the lee of Portuguese Point. Asat 3 P. M. the gale was still increasing Piper, Aden, Goodail Company, several of whose schooners are among the fleet, sent out a tug with provisions for the men ana also to render assistancs if necessary. Thecap- tain of the Shasta, who came down from Pinole Point, said the schooners were all riding easily, but that it would yrobably be twenty-four hours before they would be able to resume their voyages. The shipping along (he front was well protected and no damage was done, It was very rough on the bay, however, and sengers by the various ferry steamers not enjoy the experience. CISSY IS SUED. Miss Fitzgerald, Who Winks, Is Called Into the Superfor Court by Alfred S. White. Cissy Fitzgeraid is likely to have her engagementattbe Columbia Theater inter- rupted by the Sheriff if a suit that was filed in the Superior Court against her yesterday proves successful. Tne plaintiff in the action is Alfred Stanford White, who complains that in November, 1896, he entered into a contract with Miss Fitzgerald under which the actress agreed. 1o engage herself to him as ber manager ‘or & period of ten weeks dating from March 1, 1897. The salary was 16 be $1000 a week and, of course, the aciress engaged to accept no other protes- sional engagement during the period men- tioned. Unhappily. the complainant says, Miss Fi zzerald repented of her contract when the time came, and not only refused to play for him but she accepied other en- pagements, to wit, the one she is now ful- filling at the Columbia Theater. . Mr. White praises Miss Fitzzerald in or- der to show that his losses are the more disastrous. In fact, her press agent could not say more in her behalf, but there is not the slightest suspicion that this is an 3 did Captain A. W. Brown, U. 8. A., was | busily engaged yesterday, with the assist- | ance of C. M. Johnson, floor superintend- ent, in placing tn position on the east side of the State Board of Trade rooms on Post street a collection of deer heads that will add much to tha finished appearance of the exh:bit. The cen:ral figure is the head and neck of a mujestic elk weighing 210 pounds. When alive the animal must have weighed between 600 and 700 pounds. It was one of a band of seven and fell by Captain Brown’s own hand. bave | been hunted so persistently in Siskiyon | County that they have not been seen ia | twenty years except now and then in | small bands, Groupet around the elk’s head are the heads of iwenty deer, all magnificent bucks. Oneis what is called a “‘fighter,” the yrominent characteristic beinga de- cided tendency toward a Romau nose. | On askelf under the collection of deer heuds have been placed two large white | owls, killed near Crescent City last winter. A flock of about 200 were driven down from Alaska by the exceeding irigidity of | that rigorous clime. Three Japanese pheasants, one female and two mules, placed under the owls, add to the artistic appearance of the exhibit. Captain Brown has extensive copper ;mines near Grants Pass, Oregon, and some in Caliiornia near the boundary | line. Theelk’'s and deer heads were in- | tended to adorn his own dining-room, but | he finally concluded to place them in | rooms to show what Siskiyou ana Del | Norte counties are in the way of a hunter’s | paradise. |RAILWAY BONDS ARRIVE. | They Are of the Valley Road, but Will | Not Be Sold for Some Time—San Rafael’s Petition. Some of the first mortgage forty-four- year gold bonds of the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway arrived here yesterday fresh from the presses in New York, and the remainder will continue to come till all are here. The lot which arrived yesterday con- sisted of 250. There is nothing unusual | about them. They are much like mining stock freshly issued and unsigned except that they are in differant shape. To each bond, which bear the face value of $1000, is attached the coupons, each of whigh is good for $25 interest every six months. This is at the rate of 5 per cent a year. It is believed the bonds will bring con- siderably above par. However, Mr. Watt #aid yesteraay he had no idea when any of the bonds would be placed on sale. The road, he continued, was not ready for itana probably would not be for some time. The directors of the rord held their reg- ular meeting yesterday, but littie wasd besides auditing several billsand tra ing general routine business. The directors of the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad also met yester- day. Onoimgorum matter before them was the consideration of a petition from Rafael asking for lower fares. The matter was discussed and went over for thirty days. Vice-President Foster said several of the directors had not before heard of the petition. They concluded to take more time to look into it. WOLFF INDIOTED. Several Mattors Brought Eefore the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury yesterday returned an indictment against V. 8. Wolff. on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. Wolff had a number of sight New York draitscashed at the local banks. Beveral witnesses were heard in an in- quiry concerning an, alleged assault by R. H. Patterson and Bernhard Ward, which 1s alleged 10 have taken place in a saloon kept by one McManus on Feb- ruary 12. John Lynch was also heard in an allega- tion against Michael Costello, in which Lynch charges Costello with the murder of his wife, who was the daughter of Lynch. Costelloand his wife did not live happily togethar. Shedied suddenly on the morning of March 9, 1895. The cir- cumsiances were suspicious, and an in- quest was held and an autopsy performed. Nothing was discovered that would war- rantva charge of murder. The physician who was called immediately after the aeath certified that the cause of death was consumption. Costello is keeping a store at the corner of Gilbert and Brannan streets, Further testimony was also taken in the Fair case. ———————— Mrs. Howard Coit Il Mrs. Howara Coit, formerly Misi Lillie Hitcheock, has béen quite 1ll at the Palace for some time past.

To-day being one of the greatest of all Irish festivals will be fittingly celebrated in S8an Francisco by the Irish societies of the City, The secular exercises wili in- clude a double celebration, commencing at 2 o'clock at Meiropolitan Hall and closing at the Mechanics’ Pavilion with a grand musical festival and promenade concert. A choice literary and musical programme has been prepared for both functions, special features of the celebra- tion at the Mechanics’ Pavilion being the display of stereopticon views of Irish and American acenery and a grand chorus of 500 voices, the whole under ihe direction of Alfred Roncovieri and John W. Me- Kenzie. The Knights of St. Patrick will hold their twenty-second annual banquet the same evening at Delmonico’s, the guests assembling at 8 o’clock. It goes without saying that the weil-earned rejutation of t order for bounteous hLospitality, characteristic of the race, will be more than sustained on that occasion. The ceicbration of the twenuy-filth an- niversary of St. Patrick’s Churck on Mis- sion street will be continued throughout worning, afternoon and evening. The fact th this anniversary falls on a day so auspicious in the Catholic caiendar makes the evant doubly interesting, and it will be signalized by the assembiing from all paris of the State ofallthe priests w.o, during the term of its existence, have been pastors of 8t. Patrick's Church. The special services yesterday were quite 23 impressive as those of Monday last. Tho huge and imposing interior of the church was crowded from the aitar rails 10 the doorways with earnest worshipers, who forvently joined in tiie responses, and listened atteniively to the reiizious ex- hortations of the officiating priests. The order of the service was as follows Recital of the rosary by Father Brennan, during which the choir sang the: mysteries; special prayers in honor of t. Patrick; sermon by Father M. D. Connolly of St. Paul’s; vene- diction of tne blessed sacrament, Father Con- nolly officiating, assisted by Father Brennan and Father Keane; blessing of objects of devo- tion by Father Brennan. Father Connelly preached an eloquent sermon, with 8t. Matthew x as his text, in which the Savior counsels his apostles piior to sending them forth on their mis- sion to the nations. ‘I take this text,’ said the preacher, “first because it conveys a solemn injunc. tion of the greatest imporiance to all who would be followers of Cnrist, and sec- ondly because of the virtues which it in- culcates, namely, fearlessness with re- spect for men ana a salutary fear of God. These virtues shine forth with a special brilliancy in the light of him who is Ire- land’s apostle, the patron of her church, whose feast we celebrate to-morrow. That St. Patrick was animated by a great fear of God is manifest from the heroic au- sterity of his life, and the severe penances to which he subjected himseif. In carry- ing out his high mission he displayed the greatest fearlessness towards men. His coura; and his manliness never failed him when his duty to the one trus and living God, whose minister he was, re- quired him to speak openly against the idolatrous customs of the people among whom he preached. * While admiring the heroism of this great apos:le of our race let us ask our- selves whethor,in the profession of our faith and the fulfillment of those duties which that fzith enisils, we have been moved by the spiritol Christian independ- ence which we so admire in the glorious St. Patrick.” The preacher cautioned his. hearers against an attitude of a toc great human respect, pointing out that those who court human approbation too 'whu“ tly forieit the approbation of God. He denounced the miserable cowardice which prompted the renunc:ation of religious convictions for fear of a smile or a jest, And referred scathingly to the unfortunate being who could not be witty withoutobscenity as “‘a man who is doing all that in him lies to bind the souls of Lis fellows to the caariot wheels ot Satan.” L AT SACRED HEART. A Great Crowd and Much Music in Honor of the Day. T An entertainment in celebration of St. Patrick’s aay, given last evening by the De Ia Salle Literary and Debating Socie of Sacred Heart College, drew an audi- ence of 800 prople, which overcrowded the large auditorium of the college at Eddy and Larkin streets.

And by & man he had thought his friend. Perhaps there had been some mistake— he would look again. No, there was no mistake; he had been sued and his beautiful costumes and stage paraphernalia attached by Emile Bellet. There was the writ of attachment and the gendarme who served it, and the ponder- ous Sheriff’s lock—alas, it was too true. Monsieur Charley tore his hair again, for he is an impresario, and such actions are a part of his dally or rather nightly routine, The story of Monsieur Charley’s trouble is this ‘When the French Opera Company, now playing in this City and in which he is a star, left Paris there was urgent need of money—to be precise, 7000 {rancs—to get the company to New Orleans. At first there was some question as to where it was to bs obtained, but Monsieur Charley is & man of resources, and he soon nego- tiated a loan of the money from a Parisian banking- house. The bankers heard that the New Orleans season had been profitable, but the ex- pected drait did not materialize, and when the company reached hers the financiers bezan to grow anxious. Emile Bellet is the stage manager and director of the company, and he was re- quested by the bank to jog M. Charley’s memory and take legal steps fo collect the mouney if this expedient failed. Bellet at first demurred, for he was a friend of the impressario, but be was finally induced by the bank to act as its acent. and wheu reqaests for liquidation of the debt failed to bring results he sued.
