The entertainment and dance which the members of Tamalpais Camp of the ‘Woodmen of the World had planned for last Wednesday night, but which had to be postpened on account of the heavy downpour, will be given on the night of the 18th of December In Mission Opera Hall, when the degree team of the camp, which has just been organized, will pre- sent several surprises. A most interesting lecture was delivered before the Corona Club, the literary as- sociation of the ladies of the Mission dis- trict, at its last held meeting. It was on “Common Sense Reading,” by Miss Jen- nie Long, who deplored the decadence of the systematic study of good reading and writing in the public schools, saying that arithmetic was the only one of the three Rs so thoroughly taught to our grand- mothers which is thoroughly taught now. Miss Long illustrated her remarks by the reading of simple themes from the Bible, Longfellow and Bryant and hu- { morous selections, which were highly ap- preciated by the large audience, in which there were many ladies of other clubs cf this city. Miss Carélyn Lunt gave a | short talk on “Domestic Science.” Mrs. E. Dewys entertained with instrumental selections, and Madame Carrington, who has a fine soprano voice of wide range, celighted her hearers with vocal numbers. This club continues to grow in numbers and it is develoving a wonderful desire on the part of the members to learn more of literature and appreciate i e Crocker Lodge Wins Banner. ‘At the time that the lodges of -the An- cient Order of United Workmen of this city were making arrangements for the celebration of the anniversary of the or- | der on October 28, the Grand Lodge ex- "lenslon committee offered several prizes for the greatest increase in membership by individual members. The first prize, a handseme silk banner appropriately in- scribed, was awarded to Crocker Lodge, i it having, according to percentage of membership, made the greatest gain. The | banner was presented last Friday night {'in Mission Opera Hall in the presence of @ large number of members of the order. The prize was turned over to the lodge by Deputy Grand Master W. H. Barnes and it was accepted on behalf of the lodge by Master Workman Dunn. There was also the presentation to Frank T. Terramose of that lodge of three emble- matic pins, one being for every five stran- gers introduced and initiated. Mr. Terra- | mose secured encugh to entitle him ‘to | three nins. Two of these he gave to en- ergetic workers in the lodge. Under direction of Grand Recorder Spencer, who acted as master of ceremo- nies, there was a short programme of mu- sic, songs and speeches, after which a | collation was served. Among the speak- ers were the deputy grand master, Past Master Carr and Major Blackman. —_———— All Hallows’ Entertainment. The annual entertainment for the bene- fit of All Hallows’ Church, South San Francisco, will be given at the Potrero Opera-house next Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. The Rev. D. O'Sullivan, the pastor, has prepared an excellent pro- gramme, consisting of farce comedy, spe- cialties, vocal and instrumental music, fancy dancing and many other features. An excellent orchestra will be in attend- ance and will render the music for the dancing, which will conclude the pro- gramme. —_—————— News in Army Circles.

STEAMSHIP CHIN IS DELAYED 'BY A BREAKDOWN IN MACHINERY Expected Race to Honolulu Between That Vessel and the Alameda Is Prevented by t’he’ Accident. THE PACIFIC MAIL COMPANY'S Cl-i!NA AND THE OCEANIC pTEAMSHIP COMPANY'S ALAMEDA STARTING FOR THE ISLANDS. SHE HAD TO RETURN TO AN ANCHORAGE FOR REPAIRS. SOON AFTER GETTING AWAY. ONE OF THE CHINA'S STEAM PIPES BURST AND B — GREAT amount of interest was manifested along the front yes terday . in the sailing of the Oceanic Steumship Company's Alameda for Honolulu and the Pacific Mail Company’s China for the Orient. The latter calis at Honclulu on her way to Japan and China. The China is the ‘‘crack” of the Mail Company’s fleet and acids the record be- tween Honolulu and San Francisco. At the time she won this the heads of the departments were aboard and the vessel was speeded to see what she could do. The Alameda was recently remodeled and a few days ago completed a most successful round trip. - It was generally thought along the froot that the vessels would race, but both Captains Herrimav and Friele said when questioned that no such thought ever entered their minds. They will make the regular time and no more. 2 The China was scheculed to sail at 1 p. m. and left the Mail dock a few minutes after that hour. When out in the stream and headed for Angel Island she was sud- denly seen to put about and make for an anchorage in the China basin. At first it was said that she was waiting for the Alameda, which sailed an hour later, in order to give her a brush; then it was said that she was awaiting a belated pas senger, but when a gang of men from th= Union Iron Works, headed by Robert Forsyth, engineer in chief, went aboard it was feared that something serious had happened in the engine-room. The damage to the China consisted of a’ twisted steampipe, and workmen were engaged all night repairing the damage. It was expected she would sail early this morning. She carries the following pas- sengers: For Honolulu—F. Baldwin, Mrs. F. Baldwin, 3. L. Brown, F. L. Chambers, C. N. Chambers, Mrs. C. A. Collins, Clarence Cunha, Mrs. E. S. Cunba, Miss C. Cunha, I.

Two of Them Due Here Early Next Month. The Hancock from Kobe and the Sheri- dan from Nagasakl, Japan, shculd both arrive here early next month, while the Thomas from Manila should get in about December 20, or in time for Christmas. The Warren i§ now on the drydock near Yokohama. The Sheridan, Warren and Hancock all got into irouble while at- tempting to bring homc a number of sick and discharged soldieis. The Sheridan was first to get into trouble, and tae ‘Warren took her passengers and started for San Francisco. Off the Japanese cogst the Warren struck on some rocks and had to put into Kobe in distress. ‘While proceeding to the relief of the Wat - ren the Hancock went ashore, and later got off and is now coming home with thc ‘Warren's passengers. All the transports were damaged in the Tnland Sea and were in charge of the pilot at the time. Hyades Arrives From Panama. The Panama Railroaa Company's Hy- ades arrived from Panama yesterday with an enormous ¢argo Ut no passengers. She.brings no laté news from the isth’ mus.

The Southern Pacific Company has pur- Greenleaf, chief medical officer of the de- partment, will return to the city to-mor- - row night to resume his dutles at head- -quarters. The field pieces and equipment for the First Battery of Field Artillery have arrived at the Presidio and will be immediately put into service. ¥ s chased from the Califcrnia Transporta- tion Company the steamboat Pride of the River, and she is now on the Vallejo run, replacing the Herald, which has gone to and Creek for an overhauling. . The Pride of the River formerly ran on the 2 | 2612 Ibs indigo, Sacramento and was deemed one of .the best of the Califormia Transportation Company’s fleet. It is rumored, however, that this is only the first purchase, and that this particular oppesition will soon pass over to the Sou:hern Pacific. This would leave the Sacramento Transporta- tion Company as the cne opposition line to the Southern Pacific on the Snva- mento. Water Front Notes. Captain Ellis of the ship Elwell is back from a trip to England, and will take his vessel out on her nex: voyage to Mes bourne.

A uniform price has been paid of §130 per share in the fully paid stock of this company at par. This company is ready to purchase additional shares of the same stock at the same price, pay- able in the same manner, and will ae- cept offers made on that basis if made within the next sixty days. Offers for sale of stock of the Great Northern Rail- way Company should be fnade upon the inclosed form and should be accompanted by the certificates of the stock offered. with transfers duly executed, having United States stamps for transfer of stock of two cents per share affixed. Upon receipt of any such offer so aec- companied the Northern Securities Com- pany will deliver to the sellers of stock of the Great Northern Railway certifi- cates of its own stock to the amount of the purchase price above named, or, if such certificates are not then ready for delivery, its negotiable receipt obliging it to issue and deliver such certificates as soon as ready. For fractional parts of shares serip certificates convertible into stock in multiples of $100 will be given.” COMMEMORATION OF EVACUATION DAY San Francisco Society of New Yorkers Will Partake of a Banquet. The San Francisco Society of New Yorkers will hold its second annual ban- quet in the Occidental to-morrow night in celebration of the day om which the last of the British troops marched out of New York and George Washington and the Continentals marched in via the Bow- ery. Major H. P. Bush, secretary of the soci- ety, in the invitation to the members to take part in the festivities, says: “And when good digestion has waited on appetite long enough to satisfy it. be- fore offering the final ‘tip,’ let us discuss the -legends and traditions which have cast their glamor over Manhattan Island and its famous city. In the old Dutch archives a view of New Amsterdam in 1640 shows prominently a fort, a jail, a gallows, a pillory, several taverns and stores, and Incidentally some houses. While the gallows and pillory are gone, there are now several more taverns and stores and some more houses. As late as 1674 old Jacob Van Der Water, the Mayor of New Orange, had, as part of his duty, to make the rounds of the city every morning, unlocking the gates. The Mayor of New York Is not that kind of a ‘rounder’ these days, but he doubtless has harder work to keep the city from be- ing stolen. But as has been well put: ¥ ty city; high must be his fame O T T walk; Still art thou lovely, whatsoe’er thy name— New Amsterdam, New Orange or New York. “Let us discuss the birth and growth of the Empire State and the history and progress of The City of the New World. Knowing that In 1789 it was officially de- creed by the powers that be that there were only 300 ‘in society,’ let us guess at the conundrum of why it has taken a hundred years to add a hundred to the list, while at the same time the increas- ing wealth, culture and brains of the na- tion congregate there from all the States. Is & democracy fatal te the growth of © ‘society’; and do republican institutions foster the growth of everything but that? Must the republic and the democracy give way to ‘society, or will the ‘survival of the fittest’ result in a counter decree? Those of us not in ‘soclety’ can easily take a fall out of it on these lines.” —_————————— WOULD INFUSE NEW LIFE INTO MEMORIAL PROJECT Meeting Is Called to Take Steps to Reorganize the Lincoln Monu- ment League. A special meeting of the Lincoln Mon- ument League will be held in the Cham- ber of Commerce, in the Merchants’ Ex- change building, next Wednesday after- noon at 2:30 o'clock for the purpose of reorganization. The league was organ- jzed in March, 1897, for the purpose of erecting a monument to the memory of Abraham Lincoln. About 33000 has been collected since that time, but the amount is deemed entirely inadequate. In order to awaken interest in the mat- ter a committee on reorganization has been appointed. Henry E.
