THE EVENING SESSION. Professor Balley Lays Stri the “Intellect” Obstacie. ‘The evening session of the convention | was devoted to the discussion of three | subjects: “The Daughters ot the King,” | by Rev. T. J. Lacy of Christ Church, Ala- | meda; '‘The Brotherhood of St. Andrew,” | by Professor A. W. Bailey of St. Mark’s | Church, Berkeley,” and “The Good of the Church as a Whole,” by Bishop Nichols. Rev. D. 0. Kelly, acting chaplain of the Presidio, opened the service with prayer, Rev. Dr. Edward Walk of Trimity Church read the lessons and Rev. F. J. Mynard of 8t. John’s Church, Oakland, read the prayers for the evening. The choir ren- dered interludes. Rev. Mr. Lacy began his theme by speaking of the origin and growth of tiie organization called the Daughters of the King. He believes Kansas to be their stronghold from a num-rical standpoint. He explainea that the order was called Daughters of the King and not King's Daughters, because the former term had always a spiritual meaning, as used by the psalmist, David, while the latter fre. quently referred to Prinzesses marching in triumphal processions. The distinction, :,. stated, was a fruitful source of query. ng. The speaker dwelt at length on the in- tense spirituality manifested by the mem- bers of the order asa whole. Their first rule was given as a rule of prayer. In treating on the subject of the Broth- erhood of St. Andrew Proiessor Bai 2id he had just finished his first year's ork in the organization and knew the difficulties it had to encounter. But, all in all, he believed there was more encour- agement met with there in proportion to he work than nearly anywhere else. One of the greatest dangers of Chris- s on tian work,’’ he stated, “is that often those who are laboring for Christ do not know Horace | | day morning a19 o'ciock. him the mselves. This keeps a lot of use- less timber in the church who need con- stant coaxing to keep them at work. “It requires courage to take the vows of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew and the Daughters of the King. The members must work and pray, and if they go off for a summer holiday take their religion along. “In Berkeley we're thrown much into the society of university pcople and have to deal with the problem of intellect. I never saw such a state in my life where so many people have a respect for religion and yot do not profess it. The members of these two orders should be students, so as to meet this intellect problem.”” “Words for the brothers, words for the daughters,” began Bishop Nichols, “‘and now a word for the whole family. ‘Taking as the basis of his theme the parable in which comparisons wers made to the kingdom of heaven, he drew at- | tention to the facts that the woman took the leaven and the man the mustard seed, and that the woman needed the leaven for bread and man the mustard seed for | the result of its growth. The burden of his remarks were to the effect that if people would only take the means of amelioration offered by Christ and not try to make them, there would be an end of the dismal failures that mark historical epochs. If tnese things were borne in mind, he asserted in conclusion, the gospel would be speeded on its mis- | sion 9} “Peace on earth, good will toward ™ Brior to the benediction b Tior to the benediction by the Bis Rev. Mr. Riley of St. Paul's drew srioh! | tion to the lac' that the general annua! meeting of the Woman's Auxiliary will be held at that church, beginning next Fri- Bisgnp Nichols will celebrate the communion service and Rev. Mr. Mills of Sacramento will preach the sermon. e e RANGES BY THE (ALL TOWER. Lieutenant E. D. Taussig Tells How Maurine Facts Will Be Gathered. Lieutenant-Commander E. D. Taussig, U.S. N., Hvdrostatic Inspector of the | | Coast and Geodetic Survey, with head- quarters at Washington, D. C., is at the Occidental. He left Washington early in April, and has since been on Puget Sound and in Oregon. He says he is making his annual trip, somewhat in connection with routine business, but is especially looking | up matters in regard to Coast aad Geo- | detic Survey vessels. In reference to the | s<tling of marine compasses hereabout by | THE CALL building and the ferry tower, he | said that the project Was entirely prac- | ticable an fessible. | “In the March notices to mariners,” he | continued, ‘“‘the attention of the mariners was called to the eathering of iniorma- iion as to desirable ranges which wounid | be of assistance to mariners in connection | with their compasses or in hinding the de- viations of their compasses. The officers of the coast survey s eamer McArihur have | lately been examining the suitable ranges | abont ti:e San Francisco harbor, and the | results will probably soon be published.” Lieutenani-Commander Taussig will | probably leave on his return to Washing- | ton this evening or to-morrow. — - o ““An Irish Evening.”” Daniel 0'Connell and Denis O’Sullivan have announced “An Irish Evening” for Tuesday, | May 25, atSherman & Clay’s Hall, 223 Sutter | street. ’Connell will treat of the legend- | ary and folk lore of Ireland and Mr. O'Sulli- | ven will sing, the enteriainment to be made | up of recitations and melodics, comments ou fairies, banshees and all that delightful ro- mance which surrounds the Green Isle. 0'Sul- livan’s songs will be illustrative of the text, and H.J. Stewart will play the accompani. ments. The holy wells, the mounds where the “good people” dwell, the weird tales of izke and stream and shore will be the subject- matier of the nivht. Sherman & Clay have the sale of the tickets. -~ Bad Accidsnt to S. M. Ewing. An ugiy accideut occurred to Ssmusl M. | Ewlug, the proficient and populsr newspaver man, on April 25 which is just becoming known among his friends, who have missed him and wondered the reason for his seclusion. On that day he was stepping from an Oakland car when his right foot caught by the heel in a depression in the asphaltum. He was thrown forward and the ankie was seriously fractured. He has siuce been under thecare of the sur- zcon. The foot has been treated and put in a plaster cast, and it will probably be as iate as June 10 before the cast can come off. He is confined to his home at 2907 Bush street. = e Socialist Educational Meetings, Liberty branch of the Socialist Labor party isabout to issue a new programme for tne three months commencing with June. Emi- neut speakers, among whom are David Starr Jordau, have consented to add their names to the list of speakers, and a feast of reason on the vexed social and industrial questions can be confidently looked forward 0. To-night Dr. Jerome A. Anderson will speak at the | headquarters of the branch, the Temple, 117 Turk street. Subject, “The Ethics of Social- Seats are free. ism.” PUPILS VIE WITH THEIR TEACHERS Patriotic Rivalry at the Schools in Honoring Lincoln, Stubs of Cert ficates Awaiting Their Turn to Be Pub- lished. Carhouse Employes Well to the Fore The Monument Movement Beoming. To-day is published 300 additional names of members of the Lincoln Monu- ment League. All of these names were obtained through the medium of the public sehools of San Francisco. Too much credit can- not be given to the patriotic teachers and pupils for the part they sre taking in this movement. The stubs of books from many schools are on file awaiting their turn to be published. The entire list of names under the head of each school is not all of members of the school. In many cases the majority of the names are those of friends of the pupils, whose subscriptions have been col- lected by the scholars and turned in to the teachers. A glance at the list will show that the employes of the McAllister streetcar- house have contributed liberally. McAllister Streetcar-House. Obtained by pupils of Fremont School. George Fahrner A. F.

RETRENCHMENT, A Cut in Salaries Made All Along the Line in the Treasury De- partment. Federal officials were flurried when De Witt C. Jackson, special agent of the treasury, informed them that he had re- ceived a letter {rom the Secretary of the Treasury notifying him that his services would be dispensed with in the interest of economy and reform. At the same time the salary of Chinese inspectors was cut from $6 to $4 per day. It appears that customs inspeciors _detailed to act as heads of the Chinese bureau received only $4 per day, while their subordinates re- ceived $6. This was an absurdity on its face, and the salaries have been made uniform. Similar cuts and removals are being 1l over the United States in the in- f retrenchment.

Chief Lees was notified from Stockton yesterday to find out, if possible, the friends of BSelina Kleiston, & young woman 24 years of age. She left this City last Sunday by the steamer for Stockton, acci.mpanied by a young man to whom, it is supposed, she Wwas engaged to be married.

Rose issued a call for the delegates to meet Iast evening at 91515 Marke. street, and so notified Mr. Fiizgerald.

CITY OWNERSHIP OF WATER WORKS Debate in B'nai B'rith Hall Won by the Affirma- tive. Comparison of the System With That of Glasgow and Other Cities. Literary and Musical F.ast by the Committee on Intelicctual Im- provement. Last night in B'nai B'rith Hall took place the first of this year's series of lit- erary and musical entertainments given by the committee on inteliectual im- provement and the Past Presidents’ Asso- ciation of District No. 4, L O. B. B. Edward Tauszky, chairman of the com- mittee on intellectual improvement, opened the entertainment with a brief a dress, calling attention to the excellent and varied programme and welcoming the large audience. Luciue L. Solomons, grand orator, Di trict No. 4, . 0. B. B, followed. He said that whatever might besaid or thought of its organization—good, bad or indifferent— it was gratifying to bshoid such an audience gathered togetheron a Jewish occasion and under the auspices of a Jew- ish order. They were bound together b; the ties of creed and biood, which obli- gation was manifold. The literary feature of the evening was a debate on the question: Rezolved, That the City should own and con- Tol its water supply. The speakers for the affirmative were H Gutstadt and Hugo K. Asher. For the negative were L L Brown and Edgar D. Peixotto. Mr. Asher began the debate for the affirmative. He said in substance: Supplying water to a large municipality is, more than any other business, likely to result in a monopoly, which is chiefly due to the fact that a very large expenditure of money is requisite for the purpose of carrying on that bu-iness, and but very few people have the means {0 engage in it, and the few who have the capital do not care to run the risk of loss by reaton of competition. The Spring Valley Company has, in_addition to its business of supplying water, taken care so to conduct its operations as to keep out any competition. This it has done by buying up everv available supply of water which migit be easily brought into the peninsula. Ti the City desired to own its water works 1t would be able to borrow ths money for 3 per cent per annum with which to purchase the works, and it would be enabied to cut down the Cost of water to about half of what 1t {s now. In 1886 the City paid for water for municipal purposes, such as sprinkiing streets and parks ishing fires and flushing sewers, $70. In 1896 this sum had swollen 1o 2 78. That makes about 80 cents for ever¢ man, woman and child of the population. The City expends for hydrants $166,000 per year. | Glasgow, Manchester, Berlin, Parfs, New | York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Buffalo and | other cities own and control their own water supply. Mr. Brown, for the negative, called at- tention to the fact that San Krancisco’s supply lay within forty or fifty miles, whereas the proposed supply from Lake Tahoe or the Biue Lakes is from 300 to 350 miles. He said: It will cost the City not less than $25,000,- 000 or £30,000,000 to bring water from there. Tne plant of the Spring Vailey Water Works could not be condemned by the City under the exercise of the law of eminent domain, be- cause there was no law to permit the robbery of the property of the company. Money could not be had for less than 414 per cent and that rate on $25,000,000 would be $1,125,000 per annum plus a sinking fund or $625,000 per annum. Add to this the operating ex- penses of the works ($376,000 per annum) and it would be found that the City could not af- ford to take water from the Blue Lakes or Lake Tahoe. Mr. Gutstadt followed for the affirma- tive. With reference to the contention of Mr. Brown that it would not be feasible for the City to put in its own water-works becanse of the great expense it would involve, he said that engineers bad estimated that for $15,000,000 the City could get un ample supply and could place her bonds for that amount at3 per cent. He rited the water rates in Glas- gOW, where the water was taken from a source thirty-four miles distant, as being only 40 cents per month for a house rent- ing at $25 per month. Mr. Peixotto closed for the negative in a humorous vein. The judges, M. P. Stein, Jacob Greene- baum, William Baalberz, Frank Sperling and Henry Schwartz decided that the affirmative argument was the better one. The concert was of a high class and very enjoyable. The Hungarian orches- tra” played selections from “Orpheus,’ “Carmen,” *Ll Capitan” and the inter- mezzo from ‘‘Cavalleria Rusticana.”” Signor Abramoff sang a selection from “Nebuchadnezzar,” and Miss Mary Gib- bons sang Centemeri’s “Deep in my Heart.” Both were enthusiastically en- cored. A mandolin orchestra completed the musical treat. A Man Will Overlook a great deal if his clothing fits him perfectly. A man need overlook nothing if he ‘buys his clothing here.
