The Rummage sale for the benefit of the Infant Shelter did a land-office busi- ness yesterday afternoon and evening. The store in which the sale is being held, at the corner of Seventh and Minna streets, was crowded all day, and all of the many poor visitors carried away large bundles of clothes, shoes, etc., purchased for a mere song. The ladies who have the sale in charge have but one thing to com plain of—the lack of clothing to dispose of. Especially is there a demand for chil- dren’s clothes, which cannot be supplied. An earnest request is made for clothes of all descriptions. A telephone call or postal addressed to any of the ladies of the shelter will receive immediate atten- tion and they will be pleased to send for th;‘ clothes and have them brought to the sale. The sale closes to-morrow evening, but should the ladies have their expectations realized in the way of added donations, the sale will be reopened on Thursday. Lieutenant Commander, To Aid Deed Trooper’s Mother. An entertainment for the benefit of the mother of the late Peter Rodriges, mem- ber of Troop A, 8Second Cavalry Brigade, N. G. C., who died as a result of injuries received by falling from his horse in a parade last September, will be given at Armory Hall, 1327 Market street, Wednes- day evening, February 20, by his former comrades. Rodriges was a popular mem.- ber of his troop and also a member of Dorle Lodge No. 216, F. and A. M.; Yerba Buena L go of Perfection, A. A. 8., and Louisville Commandery of Knights Tem- plar.

L Beott, W. H. Roussell, Isaac Upham, A. Sbarboro, F. W. Van Sicklen, Irving M. Scott. . This committee will meet Sunday morn- ing in the rooms of the Chamber of Com- merce and will go to Sacramento Mon- day, as the bill will be reported on that day by the committee having it under consideration. Several business men spoke, all being strongly in favor of the legislation. At the outset President Kilburn of the Har- bor Commissfon explained the reason for | assembling representatives of all the com- mercial organizations of the city. The legislative Committee on Commerce and Navigatlon came to San Francisco a week ago and visited the China Basin. Last Tuesday the Harbor Commission went to Sacramento and conferred with the legis- lative committee at the State Capitol. While the legislative committee offered no serious objection to the bill, there was a tendency to delay action. The session of the Legislature was near an end. The Harbor Commission had judged it to be for the public good to invite the business men to meet and take some steps to im- press on the Legislature that they were united and earnest in the matter. The State to be much interested. E. 8. Pilisbury and Captain Payson spoke briefly. The substance of their re- marks was that the legse of. the basin doés not depend upon the Legislature. If the lease is not ratified the raflway com- any would save $250.000. which it would ave to expend in building the seawall. But just as soon as the lease was rati- | fied the company would begin’the work on the seawall and the company stood ready to carry out all parts of its agree- ment. The State w ested than the rallway company. All the board ought to be required to do was to state to the Legislature that action was | | its worth, are boldly used to exploit con- necessary for the good of the State to se- cure such action. Commissioners Herold and Harney add- ed that they thought that it was very | advisable that the husiness men_ should express themselves so that the Legisla- ture would understand their attitude to be | strongly in favor of the legislation. Irving M. Scott said that it was un- questionably the wish of the people of San Francisco that the bill should be passed. A. Chesebrough, - Captain Bermingham, General Clunie, ex-Governor Budd and H, D. Loveland also spoke. Mr, Loveland spoke of ‘“San Francisco's grand old man,” Claus Spreckels, without whose ac- tion ' San Francisco would still be with only one transcontinental raflway. | MAN FROM SEATTLE IS ACCUSED OF KIDNAPING E. B. Benn Is Arrested on Complaint of His Divorced Wife, Mrs. M. J. Chaplin. E. B. Benn of Seattlc has been endeav- oring for months to gain possession of his 4-year-old boy, and after succeeding yes- terday he was arrested and locked up in the City Prison on a charge of kidnaping. The charge has been made so that the legal custody of the child can be settled | in_court. Benn secured a divorce from his wife In Seattle on the ground of desertion. In the decree it was ordered that the child should be given into the custody of each arent every alternate six months. Mrs. Bern had taken the child with her whes she deserted her husband and he followad her to Montana and from there to this | eity. Meantime she had been married to M. J. Chaplin, a carpenter, and they started @ lodging-house at 1772 Howard strect. Benn went there yesterday morning with | an attorney and while the attorney, so it is alleged, held the mother, Benn seized the child and drove off with him in a hack. The mother and her new husband were on theit way to the Hall of Justice vesterday afternoon to get a warrant for Benn's arrest when they saw him and they got Detective Riordan to arrest him. As no Judge could be found to sign ths warrant Captain Seymour decided to pre- fer the charge against Benn, as he refused to deliver over the child to the mother. —_————————— To-Day’s News Letter. The wits and the wags of clubdom have shown that you don’t have to be a pro- fessional rhymster to write witty verse. There is a whole page in this week's News Letter devoted to a joint valentine writ- ten by and to the smart set of San Fran- cisco—and if rames were signed to it there would be some new records in the Templé of Fame. There is one sensation and a half dozen witty stories about peo- ple you know in the ‘Looker On,’ and there are editorials both serious and wit- ty, to every man's taste. “Lady m?-' has plenty of choice gonsly and “The Town Criér’ riots in a wealth of satirical prose and verse.

It can be truthfully said of no other remedy in the world what is so often said of Paine's celery compound, that in no single instance has it failed to benefit, and benefit permanently—and there’s the point that no sufferer should lose sight of. The whole stock-in-trade of the ordi- nary, plausible-sounding, but wholly ir- responsible remedies is to bring about the appearance of health, to cover up symp- toms and to stave off break downs, making the permanent cure all the more difficult. Other remedies, because they can ef- | fect no lasting cure, do harm. s ‘much more inter- | The same words that fairly and ac- curately describe Paine's celery com- pound, a remedy that every day proves coctions that can by no possibility do an thing but harm. More brains and inge- nuity is expended on the label and wrap- per than on what is put into the bottles. Persons who try this remedy and that, in the foolish hope that they may hit on the right one by chance, and at any rate it can do them no harm, should know that they are doing their system incalculable mischief and putting off the day of com- plete recovery by such experimenting. Paine’s celery compound must not be judged by the standard of any of these superficial medicines. It is a great, re- sponsible, sclentific discovery, unlike any remedial agent that ever aimed to effect a similar purpose—to make peo- ple wéll. It is not an ordinary remedy. The résults from its use have been so extraordinary and so gratifying that busy men and women have gone out of their way to send letters of thanks and to allow their names to vouch for every statement, they have made in praise of it. The following acknowledgment from Mrs. Geo. F. Rouse of Green Bay, Wis.. of the surprising’ benefit she has recetved from the use of Palne’s celery compound is too valuable to be withheld from the public. Mrs. Rouse's honest opinion of this great remedy cannot be mistaken by any one who reads her letter. Green Bay, Wis., March 3, 1900. Wells, Richardson & Co., Gentlemen:—For the past ten years I have been troubled with neuralgia of the stomach and dizziness in the head. I have doctored with many doctors, but found no relief until a friend of mine recommended to me your Paine’s celery compound, and I found it a great cure for my sickness. Yours very truly. Mrs. Geo. E. Rouse. Public opinfon in the large cities throughout the country shows the reli- ance that hard-worked, often over- worked, men and women have come to place upon Paine’s celery compound. Nothing demoralizes the health sconer or more completely than even the occa- sional loss of sleep. Paine's celery com- pound gets the brain out of this danger- ous habit of sleeplessness. It feeds the nervous tissues all over the body, and does not let the nutrition of these delicate parts get low enough to permit of insom- nia. One of the earllest evidences of the final success of this great nerve and brain invigorator in curing neuralgia, debility, rheumatism, headaches and indigestion due to insufficient nerve force, is the joy- ous feeling of returning strength of mind and body, cheerfulness and “well being"™ singuarly | that takes the place of the old, tired, lan- guid, morbid, melancholy condition. “1f you are “played out,” to use a forel- ble street phrase, can't digest, can’t sicep, can’t work, and have lost courage, it {8 your nervous system that is “played out. Try Paine’s celery compound and see how soon you give up brooding over your health and how soon you forget you ever had nerves that could possibly ache, The dismal fallures of other remedies must not prevent one from taking the rémedy that is always successful. Paine's celery compound has driven sickness from thou- sands of homes. RABBI VOORSANGER COMPARES CIVILIZATION AND CULTURE Rev. Dr. Nieto Says That God Needs No Bribe to Care for the Sculs of the Dead. Rabbi Nieto delivered an interesting ser- | cause her civilization was external. mon on modern reform in worship at t Post and Taylor street synagogue last evening. He argued that in the words of the poet, the man who thinks does not worship and pray and the man who wor- ships and prays does not_ think. Tb speaker cldimed that the modern mode of reform worship retained many forms of ancient rites which were not consistent with reform. The first reformers had re- tained many old customs in order to make the religion attractive and the successors to the reformers still kept these old cus- toms in the belief that they were part of the reform religion. “It is not necessary,” sald Rabbi Nieto, “to pay for prayers for the souls of the dead. God needs no bribe to take care of the souls.”” Rabbi Nieto claimed that the reform religion of all churches would be a religion which the thinking ple would want. A reform religion could not be a true reform one while it retained many of the modes and customs in vogue in pngl.n days. Rabbi Voorsanger addressed the con- gregation at Temple Emanu-El on th> subject of “Civilization and Culture.” Ha drew a picture of the recent ceremonial in London when King Bdward opened Parliament and was surrounded by a bril- liant gathering, dressed in the costume of the middle’ ages. To many persons this pageant seemed incongruous with the present times. The pageantry was but a symbolism of royalty. The gorgeous al-.s: productions of Shakespeare's plays to. Wwould as tonish the poet if he could witness them. Yet, the lavish productions were but the outward symbol of the great thought of Shakespeare. That thought existed when the plays were produced in the days of Elizabeth. Then, as now, the beauties of Shakespeare are in the depth of thought. The stage pictuyes are but ex ternal attributes. Too often civilization and culture were confounded. In olden days when men wrote with the stylus on clay, the human mind was as vigorous as it is’ to-day. The minds of the men who wrote in the days of simplicity have never been surpassed. “It is a question to decide,” said Rabbi Voorsanger, ‘‘whether ecivilization is an increase of social accomplishment, a de- velopment of mechanics, an increase of comforts or expanding the power of so- ciety, or is it the element of mersonal cul.- ture and personal education?
