The session began with a celebration of holy communion, with Bishop Willlam Hall Moreland as celebrant and the Rev. C. L. Miel as dean. The Rev. Charles H. de Garmo preached a sermon, taking as his | text, “Seek yve my face; thy face, O Lord, will T seek.” A short business session was held, after which there was a discussion as to the method of raising the apportionment for missionaries laid on the diocese of Sacra- mento by the general convention of the church. Bishop Moreland stated that the reports from the varlous churches and missions in the diocese were so encour- aFing as to lead him to believe the entire sum asked for would be forthcoming in September. At the session this afternoon a number of women were present to dis- cuss the question of “Woman's Worl ussed by Mrs. SBusan A.

Claim They Got No Credit for Money Given in Aid of Strikers. TLocal No. 104 of the Amalgamated Metal | Workers” Internatlonal Association is up | in arms against Secretary O. A.

During -the miners’ trouble P. H. Mc-| | Carthy, president of the council, demand- | ed that all donations from affiliated bodies | be made through that organization. The i Metal Workers' Unlon donated $25, the receipt of which, it is claimed, was ver- | bally acknowledged by Tveitmoe. When the official list of donations was published by the secretary of the miners’ | union there was no mention of the metal | | workers' contribution and a commiitee | was appointed to Investigate. H. B. Wil- | son, secretary and treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America, in an- gwer to the union’s letters of inqulry an- | | swered that he had never received the | | donation. A member of the committee called on Tveitmoe and demanded an ex- | | planation. The secretary said that he had | a receipt showing payment of the sum | | and would produce it later. 1 Since then Tveitmoe has ignored the demand of the union, o ‘it claims, and | has refused to answer fts letters. | The committee is much incensed at Tveitmoe's strange stand in the matter | and is determined to force him to account | satisfactorily for its donation. | The Metal Workers' Union is not affil- jated with the Building and Trades Coun- cil, having been suspended by President | | McCarthy in January last because, it is sald, it would not accept McCarthy's de- clsion that its delegate to the San Fran- | | cisco Labor Council, which was called to form a central labor organization must | | receive the indorsement of the council of | which McCarthy is the head SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR | } VETERANS TO ENTERTAIN Camp Reinhold Richter to Give Ball | | Which Promises to Be Notable | Military Affair. ‘ The second annual ball of Camp Rein- | { hold Richter No. 127, Spanish-American | Wa#r Veterans, will be held to-morrow | evening at the First Infantry Regiment | Armory, Page and Gough streets.

How It Has Spread From Home to Home in San Francisco. In every part of San Francisco, in the homes of the wealthy, in the humble abode of the man of toil. 'Tis now a well-known fact—a great truth—that Doan’'s Kidney Pills have brought more comfort to backache sufferers and cured more sick kidneys than any medicine of modern time. John Lewls, tailor, rear of 721 Bush street, says: “An attack of malaria, as in the majority of instances, was fol- Jowed by inactivity of the kidneys and a lameness and soreness across the small of my back. Sitting as I am com- pelled to do, practically stooped, strained the muscles of the loins and aching en- sued, and when I straightened I could only describe the twinges which shot through the small of my back as excru- ciating. With the passing of time the pain increased until I was compelled to stop work. I knew something had to be done or my case might become serious, and I commenced taking standard reme- dies guaranteed to cure Kidney com- plaint in any of its various forms. The results obtained from the medicines ceased the moment I stopped their use, and ever on the outlook ror something to bring relief 1 at last tried Doan’'s Kid- t ney Pills. I knew after a dose or two they were acting directly upon the kid- neys, and a continuation of the treat- ment absolutely stopped the last attack. 1 bave told a great many of my friends and acquaintances about the benefit I have received from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills.” For sale by all dealers.

The McCloud River Electrical Power and Construction Company filed a suit yesterday against A. F. Johns to cause the cancellation of 119,993 shares of stock of that company which had been issued to him when it was organized. The plain- tiffs claim that the stock was issued to the defendant in consideration of the conveyance by him to the company of certain properties on the McCloud Rivex which he claimed he owned, but which the.company now claims he never had any right, title or interest in. The com- pany was incorporated in May, 1900, under the laws of South Dakota, and . ..~ shares were issued, 199,993 being vested in the name of the defendant, and the re- maining 7 shares being held by the ...fer- ent directors. This is not the first time that the affairs of the company, or rather the affairs of those who are connected With its management, have bedg brought before the public gaze. 1t was only last month that the presi- dent of the concern, George H. Proctor, was made defendant in a suit brought by L. A. Barnes, who accused Proctor o juggling with the business affairs of the concern. Now, the president and the di- rectors—W. R. A. Wilson, Robert Gibson, A. Hochheimer, L. A. Barnes and H. B. Twombley, all of whom reside away from here, the majority Ilving in New York City, have through their attorneys, Ha- ven & Haven, commenced this sult to try to oust Johns from the directory and at the same time prevent him from voting at the next election of the company, al- leging that as the stock had been issued to him without any consideration on his part it should therefore be canceled and revert to the company itself.
