As we here stand to-dsy to assist in laying the cornerstone ot this edifice we know that the real foundation has been inid in your bearts for many days and the building erected in your hearts many times. We also realize the truthfulness of the old adage that “God helps those who help themselyes.” To us this should be both a day of and & day of rejoicing—a day of sadne: tnoughts of tue many who are suffering for the necessiries of life, suffering for the loss of friands, suffering for the loss of father ‘or mother, or both; & day in which we may de- Yote our thoughts to those who are less for- tunate than we in the struggles of life; a day in which we will not rejoice over our suc- cesses, but extend our sympathy to those in so1row and in need, ever remembering that we arc all one great 1amily and the suffering of one of the race but increases the pains thai dart through our own systems, As this building is 10 be erected by laying one stone correctly on another or by properly nailing one board to another board, s are the characters of the children who are to live here t0 be formed by one lesson added to another lesson, We have assembled to-day to perform s duty both sad and pleasant—sad because of the necessity of such a gathering and plessant Dbecause we are able o be here and take our part in this work of love. It is right and we can find the cause of this outpouring of the people of this community and of the order. We find that many of our very best citizens, both men and women, are studying both day end night to devise means for relieving some of this sorrow and suffering. What are the causes of this suffering and trouble? Perhaps it would be well at this time to consider some of them. First, lack of employment for the laboring class; second, 100 much book knowledge taught in our pub- lic schools; third, not enough time devoted to training the young in the practical way of earning a living; fourth, the avarice of capi- tal in not giving labor, the foundation of ail wealth, its just proportion of the proceeds de- rived from Jabor; fifth, drink, intemperance and living beyond our means. Waile good school education should not for one moment be discouraged, good, common, practical sense should be taught st the same time. Our children should be taught that education is not for the purpose of avoiding work but to assist in that work. Education cannot take the place of labor, and it does seem to me that at the present time too much stress is placed on_education to take the place of iabor instead of assisting that labor. The boy should not be taught that education will | take him from the plow, the saw or any other position, but that it will make him a better plowman, a better carpenter or a better citi- zen in any occupation. Man is prone o selfishness and it requires persistent effort to overcome the effect of this characteristic of the human family: it requires hard, untiring, persevering labor. A spear of corn comes outof the ground and | gradually grows eua proauces the full stock | and ripe corn. Atno time can we see it grow, | but still it moves on in its unostentatious way, | gathering for its own use the elements from tho soil that are suited to its purpose. 8o may | the little ones who may be sheltered in this | home gather from the lives of those around them the elements that shall make them good and true men and women. Short addresses were delivered by oth- ers present, “‘America” was sung by the entire audience, the benediction was pro- nounced and the ceremony was at an end. Afterward the visitors were taken in carriages for adrive through the valley, and in the evening many attended the play at the Music Hall by local talent un- der the management of C. R. Weaver, It was entitled “A Fisherman’s Luck.” A dance followed the performance.

PRISON DIRECTORS | AT SAN QUENTIN Two Prisoners Serving Short Terms Are . Paroled. The Board Declares Against Giving Out Convicts’ Photographs. Members Shown a Slipper In Which Money Was Sent to "“Ohlo Fatty.” SAN QUENTIN PRISON, CAL, May 5.— The Board of Prison Directors met to-day, paroled two prisoners and passed a reso- lution excluding the newspapers and others from taking photographs of pris- oners. Ernest Easton, a prisoner, 24 years of age, who was convicted of an attempt to escape 1n Napa County, for which he wa: sentenced to five years’ imprisonment from August 30, 1895, was paroled, as was William J. Spaight, age 25, convicted of robbery in San Francisco and sentenced to ten years’ imprisonment from March 12, 1893 Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson were granted the contract to furnish the boil- ers, ranges and all kitchen utensils for the new kitchen building. A resolution was introduced to the ef- fect that in the future no picture of any prisoner, either in citizen’s or conviet's clothes, should be given except to Chiefs ol Police or Sheriffs without special per- mission of the board of directors. War- den Hale said this resolution was made necessary because of the number of appli- cations from petty ofticers and others who desired pictures of various conviets, aud that it was not made with the intention of especially excluding the newspapers. The board adjourned to meet at San Quentin on June 12, Prison Director James H. Wilkins showed a slipper that had been sent to Frank Wheeler, alias “Onio Faity.” Un- der the sole the leather had been hollowed out, and in the hole was a dollar bill and 8 touching note saying that the amount this time was amali, as this method of | sending money to him was an experi- ment, but if it was successful other amounts and maybe a little opium would follow. The prison authorities in inspecting the slipper to-day, discovered the note and money. The job was done neatly and to zet at the money it was necessary to pull out a thin piece of clath on the inside of the hoe. Frank Wheeler is the convict who escaped from Bing Sing and Joliet and bid for sixty hours in the jutemill at San = | Quentin in.an effort to escape from this pri-on. He stabbed “Kelly the Rat” a weak or 80 ago in seli-defense. He Is a desperate prisoner and has many friends opd }:hs outside who are always ready to aid him. R THE FRESNO BHORTAGE. Ex-Treasurer McKensle Tolls Why His Books Did Not Balanee. FRESNO, CAL., May 8 —Ex-City Treas- urer W. H. McKenzie stated to THE CALL correspondent to-day that he never per- gonally loaned any of the municipality’s money in his charge. His inability to turn over the full amount which the treasury books called for to his successor until yesterday, several days after he should have surrendered the offics, was due to the failure of the Loan and Savings Bank, where he had deposited the city funds, and of which Institution he was cashier. The bank, and not he, Mr. Mc- Kenzie explained, had loaned the money, and when it falled did not have the money belonging to the city on hand. The Treasurer had to take securities and realize on these before he could make up the funds of the municipality. The Loan nd Savings Bank suspended in 1895, and J. G. James was pre: t of the institu- tion at the tim ——— DU MAURIER'S MONUMENT. Built of Wood Instead of Ntome Dy the Author’s Direction.
