Friends of Father Oullen Hold a Reunion in His Honor The Mountain View Club, which was composed of many of the friends of Rev. Father J. J. Cullen, who is now pastor of two churches in Santa Clara County, one at Mountain View and the other at May- field, gave its final entertainment and dance last night in Golden Gate Hall. The club was organized a year ago to as- sist Father Cullen when he left Sacred Heart Church in this city to take charge of his present pastorate. It. was to exist for one year, and as last night completed that time, the funds raised by the club were turned over to Father Cullen and the club disbanded. The entertainment last night was of the nature of a celebration of the anni- versary of Father Cullen’s assumption of his duties as pastor in Santa Clara Coun- ty. It also ‘orded an occasion for a re- union of his many friends in this city. Although the Mountain View Club was formed to assist the popular young priest, its assistance was not needed by him. Father Cullen's work has been greeted with flattering success in Santa Clara County. His parishioners soon learned to inreclate his zeal and abilities and to help him in his work. Since he went to Mountain View Father Cullen has built a fine parochial resi- dence there. The programme which was rendered last night consisted of vocal and instru- | mental music, a recitation and a one-act | comic opera. The entertainment opened ‘with selections by an orchestra composed of Miss Mary G. Welsh, cornet; Miss Grace M. Welsh, cello; Miss Alma . Welsh, violin; Professor L. M. Ritzau, violin; Miss Juliette M. Grass, plano. The orchestral number was followed by vocal selections by the “Elks’ Quartet” and a soprano solo by Miss Agnes Claire Maloney, whose singing greatly pleased the audience. Miss M. Rosamond Me- herin was heartily applauded for the clever magnner in which she gave a hu- morous recitation. Willlam McDonald, formerly of the Bostonians, sang two bass solos. The programme was fittingly con- cluded with a one-act comic opera that excited considerable mirth. The parts in the opera were sustained by Mrs. E. Burns, Willlam M. Ogilvie and J. C. O’Donnell. PARADE OF HORSEMEN WILL OPEN BIG SHOW Wonderful Feats by Daring Riders Will Be Feature of Wild West Performance. One of the most striking and truly realistic features of the Wild West Show is the grand ride that will open the per- formance. This is one of the most thrill- ing spectacles that has ever been at- tempted, even by the most skilled ride: and those who witness the wild dash will | behold a sight that will linger in their minds for many a day, At a slgn from “Buffalo Bill” the entire | cavalcade of horsemen, numbering five | hundred riders, suddenly break forth in | wild disorder and 2 mad stampede fol- | lows. Then the riders of the bucking | broncos, as if by maglc, fall into line | and ride around and around in a perfect | circle. | Then they reverse again and go through | the wildest possible maneuvers with seem- ing ease. The men are all divided into | squads and when the first break occurs ! all are separated in a manner that con- | fuses the observer. This lasts but an In- | stant, however, for they all fall into per- fect line at a signal and parade around in perfect circles. The Wild West Show will open in Oak- land to-day and upon the completion of the last performance immediatedly pro- ceed to the old Bay District track in this city to make ready for the grand opening here at 2 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. Reserved seat tickets will be placed on sale commencing this morning at the muslc store of Clark Wise & Co., Grant avenue and Geary street. —_——— CALEDONIAN CLUB WILL ENTERTAIN LADY FRIENDS Members Decide Upon an Important Innovation From a Social Standpoint. The Caledonian Club met in Scottish Hall last night, Chief A. M. Macpherson presiding.” There was a large attendance of members, and much interest was evinced in the proceedings. It was sug- gested by First Chieftain J. A. McLeod that as the members had a successful stag party a few weeks ago it would be only a matter of right and justice to give | an entertainment to the wives, daughters and sweethearts of the members. The suggestion met with instant approval, and on motion of D. H. Finnie, seconded by George W. Elder, the literary commit- tee was instructed to make arrangements for the entertainment in the near future. A suitable sum was set apart to cover | the expenses. Dr. J. A. J. McDonald, the club’s: dphyv sician, delivered an interesting address | on “How to Preserve the Physical Con- | dition of the Body,’ and many valuable suggestions were given on the subject. | It was decided that the members should | attend the concert and dance of Clan | Fraser in Scottish Hall Tuesday _even- | ing next, wearing their tartan plaids and | bonnets, a communication to that effect | having been received from the chief of the clan. —_———— COLUMBIA PARK BOYS APPEAR IN CONCERT | Entertain Members of the Extension Society at the Franklin School on Eighth Street.
