The Rev. Dr. Nieto delivered a lecture last evening at the Congregation Sherith Israel, choosing as his subject ““Wisdom.” By careful and profound analysis he pro- ceeded to show that wisdom is a condi- tion that can only be attained through practical application of knowledge which had been acquired, also through compari- son of that knowledge with the expe- riences of life as it is. While knowledge, he id, only suggests knowihg the thoughts of others, wisdom is the experi- menting which_verifies the theories that others frame. The lecturer then went on to show that a man who attains wisdom is unmoved by prejudices and is cool un- der the excitement which stirs others. He is calm when attacked and faces all | conditions that meet him during life wita fortitude and equanimity. “Wisdom is a precious blessing,” said he in conclusion; “jt guides man in his daily business ca- | | reer as it guides him in the duties he| | owes to his fellows in his_ private life. | Wisdom prompts and upholds civilization and is the foundation of nation: Rabbl Voorsanger delivered his contin- uation lecture on the relation of religion to civilization at the Congregation Emanu-El last evening. He said that ha | would answer the two interrogations | which he submitted last week—first, What had religion done for clvilization? and | second, What had civilization done for religion? The lecturer likened the church | of thousands of years ago to the mother, | and the disciples as the children who had | gone forth into the world and gleaned fresh knowledge and learning. Stiil, with | all the learning and new experience, the children as years went on clung to the mother, but brought home new ideas ac- cording to the worldly experiences that bad come to them. That civilization had | done arything for religion is a matter | that is sometimes denled since, by some, | religion was regarded as immutable as :t possesses the attributes of God himself. It is, he sald, the aspect and not the prin- ciple that changes, for religion remains the inspiration and the teacher. Speaking of the evolution of science and art, he demonstrated their gradual severance from the church. They went their way by a natural progress against which big- otry only will rebel. With the going out iuto the world the mind of man became wide awake to the avenues of the uni- verse. Curtain after curtain rolled %p oa activity, which was viewed with aston- ishment and created an appetite for men- tal progression. Man grew to have an in. exhaustible desire to penetrate the fast- nesses of wisdom. Religion, he said, in spite of herself has been carried along by the processes of her own children. They had given her & new inspiratio Judaism. he declared, is an evolved re. ligion. There has been no religion grow more than that of Judaism. | | ILLUMINATING GAS KILLS CORFORAL ALBERT M. BAKER Discharged Soldier Who Had Seen Service in Cuba and the Phil- ippines Asphyxiated. Albert M. Baker, a discliarged soldler, was found aspbyxiated in his bed yester- day afternoon in the Windsor Hotel on Market street. Baker went to the hotel three days ago with William J. Whalen and Orris Callan, fellow soldiers, who left for their homes in New York last Thursday evening. Baker was affected because of the parting, and was very | much under the influence of liquor when he retired. A chambermaid found his dead body. | One of the gas valves on the bracket in | the room was turned fully on. Baker had $100 in the hotel safe and expected to | start for the East in a few days. He was |a native of Alabama, 29 years old, and | had been a corporal in Company G, First | Regiment Infantry, U. S..A. He had seen | service with his regiment in Cuba and the Philippines. On his person was found a | letter, dated ten years ago, from his brother, W. C. Baker, Main, Hotel, Cor- sicana, Texas. e Grand Jury Indicts Carroll. The Grand Jury.yesterday returned in- @ictments against W. P. Carroll, alias | “Patsy” Carroll, Martin J. Lane, Edward | Sutton and Charles J. Stickney, alias Fa- genbush, who fleeced A. E. Mellor out of $1506 in a faro game in the Palace Hotel January 8. The indictments, which were for grand larceny, were placed on the secret file, and Superior Judge Dunne ordered bench warrants to issue for the arrest of the men. Stickney is now on his way to Chicago in charge of a detective, he having been indicted by the Cook County Grand Jury. Stickney !s charged with the larceny of $8000 from a confiding widow of Chicago. The Grand Jury examined several wit- nesses in the case of the assault on Mrs. Rosa Kilbourn. The investigation was continued until next Tuesday. —_————— News in Army Circles.

McDonald addressed the Board of Public Works yesterday in opposition to the manner in which private contracts are entered into for the repairing of streets. The matter came up on the application of the City Street Improvement Company, of whica McDonald is president, to repave the roadway of Green street, between Fillmore and Steiner. George McGinn stated that he had se- cured the signatures of one-half of the property owners of frontage on the block and the improvement company had the cther half the application was denied, as it requires a majority of the property owners o agree to the work. Some of the names figured on both applications. McDonald then chargea that fraud is being committed in securing signatures for: private contracts. He sald that the system was unfair to the property owner, the contractor and the city. In many cases solicitors bringing in private con- tracts make special arrangements where- by rebates are agreed upon. When the contractors attempt to collect 'the full amount of their bills the agreements for rebates are produced by the property own- ers. McGinn replied by charging that Mc- Donald’s solicitors indulged in the rebate practice. McDonald did not deny this, but reitefated that private contracts should be done away with. He said the street work done by public contract. As signatures to applications for private con- tracts will be closely examined. The board had cited 2 number of con- tractors to appear who had asked for ex- tensions of time, believing that Mayor Schmitz would be present at the meeting. The Mayor was unable to attend, how- ever, so the contractors received a mild lecture and were cautioned to be more particular about completing their con- tracts within the time first agreed upon, as no further extensions will be granted. The board appointed Louis Meehan, Ed- ward J. Dalton and Francis Moran watch- men, and James H. Barry, David Cor- goran and Patrick H. Shanly bridge ten- ers. PERERRRRRIRRDOR RN Y atEK T0 ENJOIN THE PREGIDENT i Native Daughters Object to Institution of a New Parlor. Upon the relation of Mesdames McCor- mick, O'Day and another member of La Vespero Parlor of the Native Daughtes of the Golden West Judge Murasky is- sued. an injunction yesterday afternoon directed to Mrs. Genevive W. Baker, grand president of the order, restraining her from instituting a new parlor. An effort was made to serve the papers, but none to whom they were directed could be found, and last night the parlor was instituted by the grand president, assist- ed by District Deputy Grand President Mrs. J. A. Steinbach, ex-Grand Treasurer Dizzie Douglass, Mrs. Berry and Mrs. L D. Barton, in Barton Hall on Clay street. There were twenty-three charter mem- brrs, and the parior was named Gene- vive. s Some years ago La Vespero Parlor was instituted in South San Francisco with a large membership, and all went along well until about a year and a half ago, when something occurred which caused one of the members to withdraw. She was followed by twenty or more, and these desired to form a new parlor. They learned, however, that La ‘Vespero Par- lor would oppose the granting of a char- ter, so they organized a social club, hop- ing that in time the feeling would soften and consent would be gained. Permission to organize could not be gained during the term of Mrs. Ema Gett as grand president, and when Mrs. Baker became grand president an application was made | for a charter. In accordance with a provision of the constitution, the petition was presented to each parlor in this city for consent. In cities where more than five parlors are located, if twenty or more black balls are cast against the candidates for admis- slon into the proposed parlor, the charter must be referred. The result of the ac- tion taken must then be transmitted in detail to the office of the grand secretary and no parlor can be instituted without three-fourths of the parlors have given consent. All the parlors except La Ves- pero and Minerva gave consent to the institution. The grand president laid the petition before La Vespero Parlor, but that body adjourned before a motion was made to act on the proposition. The holding that the parlor had had portunity to vote upon it, but forfeited its right. Then it went before Minerva Parlor last Monday, but that body de- ferred action until Wednesday. The pro- ceedings In the parlor were of !ucg a character that the petition was with- drawn and the grand president, knowing that more than three-fourths of the par- lors had voted in favor, decided to insti- tute the parlor, and she did. Those whose names were on the peti- tion _were not those who withdrew from La Vespero. The opposition to the in- stitution of a new parlor in South San an op- there is not room there for two. Now that t new parlor has been in- stituted, it is Probable that the actiom of the grand president will stand until the meeting of the next grand parlor, when the whole matter will be brought up for discussion. There are some who think they can find a way to bring the matter into court and have the institution de- clared illegal.

The ball given in Native Sons’ Hall by Ignatian Council of the Young Men’s In- stitute last night was attended by many of the members and their friends and it proved to be a very dellghtful function. he hall was very prettily decorated and a feature of the evening was the music furnished by an orchestra concealed be- hind a large bank of palms and.ferns.

Why Wray Offered to Give Up His Job in the Rev- enus Office, Nearly all of the office-holders of the present State regime are candidates for another term. The candidacy of Governor Gage has not been distinctly announced to the public, but his desire for re-election is so well understood in office-holding cir- cles that much work In his behalf is un- der way. Lieutenant Governor Neff does not manifest an inclination for another term. E. P. Colgan, Controller; Charles ¥. Curry; Secretary of State; Truman Reeves, Treasurer; Tirey L. Ford, Attor- ney General; A. J. Johnson, State Printer, and ‘Thomas J. Kirk, Superintendent of Schools, will ask for renomination. Word comes from San Bernardino Coun- ty that Treasurer Reeves' candidacy for anagher term is somewhat complicated by the efforts of A. C. Kendall to get on the ticket as candidate for the State Board of Equalization.to succeed T. O. Toland. 1t {s hinted that San Bernardino could not reasonably expect to get two such im- portant nominations from the Republican party as State Treasurer and member of the State Board of Equalization. Frank C. Jordan, County Clerk of Ala- meda County, is an out-and-out candidate for clerk of the Supreme Court. The cler- ical force under George W. Root, the present clerk of the Supreme Court, will doubtless present a candidate for the Re- publican_nomination, but Root himself will hardly have the temerity to ask the State convention for an indorsement. The delegates may consider the difference be- tween Root and a deputy in sympathy with Root as very slight indeed. There is some foundation for the gossip that John C. Wray of Los Angeles had handed in his resignation as a deputy in the United States internal revenue ser- vice. Wray's official conduct was the sub- ject of investigation, but his friends as- Sert that the inquiry recently made by Special Agent Thomas had no bearing on Wray's offer to resign. The true story is said to be that Wray, feeling that his own departure from the office-holding fold might prolong the term of his chief, John By neh, readily offered to sacrifice him- self, but that Lynch would not accept the sacrifice. —_—— Thirty-Five New Iroquois.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—The Demo- cratic members of the House of Represen- tatives met in caucus in the hall of the House at 8 o'clock this evening, and after a short but spirited contest, aaopted reso- lutjons declaring that they were without power to promulgate a platform of prin- ciples for the party, owing to the binding character of the party platform hereto- fore regularly made at a national con- vention. The caucus was an outgrowth of ani- mated discussion among Democratic mem- bers ever.since the present session of Congress began, the chief issue being as to the extent to which the Kansas City latformy should be reaflirmed or should e supefseded by a new declaration of policy. It was to receive the special re- port of a committee of twelve members, appointed early in the session, that the caucus of to-night was held. The interest taken was shown in the large attendance, 139 Democrats out of a total of 153 being present. Richardson presented the majority report, concurred in by all of the members of the special committee except Henry. It recited ti work of the committee, and closed wit the following recommendation: We are of opinion that, as the representatives of our varlous constituencies and members of the, caucus made up of such representatives, we have no power or authority to construct or promulgate a platform of principles for our party: that we cannot increase or minimize the binding effect of the platforms of the party heretofore regularly made and adopted by the people in convention assembled for that pur- pose; that in the House of which we are mem- bers we should vigorously and aggressively | battle for Pemocs r and aggressl oppose eyerything contrary, in_substance or method, 6 those principles and should meet every ques- tion as it arises with a full conference and a solld and undlvided front, The minority report of Henry of Texas proposed the following in place of the McClellan = and Fitzgerald resolutions heretofore referred to: It is not within the province of a Demo- eratic caucus to promulgate or reverse a Demo- cratic platform, but it is the duty of every Democratic Representative to adhere to the na- tional Democratic platform until the succeeding convention adopts another platform. Henry also proposed that the caucus ac- tion should govern every representative when. the same accorded with the declara- | tions bf the last national platform. The vote was taken first on Henry's minority propositions and lhe'\]’ a vote of 17 to 92. The majority declara- tion was then adopted without dissent. The Fitzgerald, McClellan and other reso- lutions were laid on the table, thus leav- ing the majority declaration as the unani- mous sense of the Democratic members of the House. The caucus also adopted the following: “‘Resolved, That the territories of Aril- zona. Oklahoma and New Mexico are en- titled to statehood and should be admitted to the Union on equal footing,K with the balance of the States and we Pledge the support of the Democrats in the House to such.” SIZE OF SUBSCRIPTION LIST PLEASES DIRECTORS Season Sale for Second Series of Symphony Concerts Closes This Afternoon.

The Supervisors’ Finance Committee be- gan an investigation last night into the overdraft on the fund set aside for print- ing transcripts of appeal. The appropria- tion for the year 1901-1902 was $2500 and demands aggregating $3383 15 have already . been pald out by the former Auditor and ‘Treasurer. A number of witnesses were summoned and Chairman Brandenstein conducted an inquiry, with a view to showing that the charge for printing the transcripts was excessive. Former County Clerk Deane said that he had understood that the printers were charging 90 cents a page for the work. 'The committee objected to.the charge of $864 50 for printing 313 pages, but Grattan | Fhillips, who printed the transcripts, held that the amount of*work warranted the charge. Another bill- of $151 80 was for 251 pages, and at the regular rate of 90 cents a page the bill should have been $225 90. Deane sald that he had always made an inquiry when a demand seemed excessive, but could not recall under what circumstances the: apparent exces- sive charge had been justified. Former Chief Deputy Auditor Wells testified that he audited the bills on the approval of the County Clerk. Wells sgid he thought he had a right to pass the de- | mands. He had Leen informed by the Auditor’s legal adviser that the approval of the demands was purely ministerial. Assistant Deputy Auditor Leary said that prior to the Botkin case the demands always went to the Board of Supervisors. Ex-Auditor Broderick had held up a de- mand about that time because it exceeded the appropriation, but finally paid it after a court decision. 'he inquiry was postponed one week, but a resolution was adopted directing the Auditor ‘not to pay any more ‘demands for transeript work unless they are coun- tersigned by the Board of Supervisors, and also recommending that bids be in- vited for printing the transcripts and briefs for the City Attorney. 2 e e o 360TS CHERISH POET'S MEMORY Celebrate the Birthday of Robert Burns by Entertainment. In honor of Robert Burns, Scotland’s beloved poet, St. Andrew's Society gave a delightful entertainment last night in Scottish Hall, on Larkin street. The hall ‘was thronged with Scotia’s lads and las- sies, and the whole celebration was so successful that it will long be remem- bered as a memorable event in the annals of 8t. Andrew's Society. -The programme, which had been carefully arranged, was ! particularly worthy of the occasion, as it consisted entirely of selections Burns’ works. The poems, songs and recitations were all rendered in commend- able style and with sugh spirit as to carry the minds of those present back to old fatiliar scenes in bonnie Scotland. Professor Andrew C. Lawson of the University of California delivered an elo- quent address on ‘‘Robert Burns.” He spoke of the poet's lovable and happy disposition; of his affection for children and their innocent glee, and his insatiable love for nature. He quoted from Burns' poems to show the sweetness of the songs and the trueness of the poet's interpreta- tion of nature. Professor Lawson's ad- dress was greatly enjoyed and it was fre- quently punctuated with applause. The programme rendered was as fol- lows: Overture, “‘A Nicht Wi' Burns,” Fairgrieve's Orchestra; address, ‘‘Robert Burns,” Professor Andrew C. Lawson, University of California; (@) “‘Scots Wha Hae" (b) ‘‘The Battle of Stir- Hughes; (a) “‘Rothsay Bay" (b) “My Boy Tammy,”” Mrs. M. E.

Veaco; (a) ‘“The Mald o' Dundee’ (b) “Comin’ Thro' the Rye,” Miss Millle Flynn: James Smith; Wert Thou in the Caulg Blast,” Miss Flynn and Mrs, Blanchard, The committees having charge:of the affair were as follows: Reception committee—John McLaren, Wil- liam Nicol, John M.

The North Pacific Steamship Company's steamer Eureka, which left this port yes- terday morning at 9 o’clock, lost her fore- mast when off Bodega Heads at 4:40 o'clock yesterday afternoon and was com- pelled to return to port. The steamer put in at the Vallejo-street wharf an hour be- fore midnight. Captain G. M. Jessen stated that he en- countered heavy seas outside; that he had a sail on the foremast, and a heavy gust of wind sent the mast and canvas overboard. No one was hurt and the Alex crew had little trouble in clearing away | the wreckage. The passengers slept on board the steamer last night. Captain Jessen expects to get away again some time this afternoon. The steamer is bound for Eureka and other ports. e e Fabbri-Mueller Benefit.
