UUDGE RERAQOCK AQTS AS “RRIDESMAID” AT NOVEL CHINESE WEDDYNG CEREMCNV ARCHBISHOP RIORDAN HONORS of a Newly C NEW parish, which covers the Fureka Valley, in the suburbs of this city, has been established by his Grace Archbishop Riordan, and the many friends of the Rev. Father Joseph P. McQuaide will be de- | lighted to hear that to the earnest and popular young priest has been assigned the responsible duty of pastor. Next Sunday morning the first mass in the new parish will be celebrated by Father McQualde in a hall at Eighteenth and Castro streets. After the pastor has become thoroughly acquainted with his flock and their needs he will immediately take steps to erect a sacred edifice that will be an ornament to the district and a standing monument of devotion by the faithful in that part of the city. Father McQuaide is one of the most popular priests in this city. He was born in San Francisco and was educated at St. Mary's Collega, where he was the captain of the basebali nine for several seasons When he decided to enter the church he was sent to_the Catholic seminary in Washington, D. C. On completing his the- ological course he returned to this city and was for several years an able assist- ant to the Rev. Father McGinty at Holy Cross Church. When the war with Spain broke out Father McQualde decided that his duty called him to Manila to_admin- ister to the spiritual needs of the Catholic American soldlers. He went down to the Philippines as a missionary and received no pay for his services. At the close of the war he journeyed to Europe via the Suez canal. ' He visited the Holy Father at Rome and was graciously glven an audience. He also visited England and Ireland. He returned to this city last May and has since that time been at- tflched to the cathedral as a regular riest.
