CONCEPTION OF OAKLAND, TURY IN THE SERVICE OF THE S EI S TR SR . AKLAND, July 11.—Opening with a solemn high mass to be intoned by himself at 10:30 o'clock - to- | morrow morning, the venerable Michael K pastor of the E the Immaculate Concep- tion, will celebrate the completion of half a century in the service of the Lord. With his parishioners, the beloved priest has been preparing for some days to fit tingly commemorate the golden anniver- sary of the day he was ordained to preach the word of God. All is now in readi- | and the occaslion is certain to be this side of the bay, where for thirty- eight years Father King has labored in the cause of Christianity, winning alike the love and respect of all with whom he had to do, irrespective of creed or other distinctions. Assisting Father King in the solemn high mass with which the golden jubllee exercises will commence to-morrow will be the Rev. Father Lawrence Serda, pas- tor of the Sacred Heart Church, who will officiate as deacon: the Rev. Father . J. Cranwell, chaplain of St. Mary's College, who will act as sub-deacon, and the Rev. Thomas McSweeney, pastor of St. Francis de Sales Church, who will be master of ceremonles. 'Vicar General J. J. Prendergast of the archdiocese of San Francisco will preach the sermon. His Grace Archbishop P. W. Riordan, who, with fifty priests, will be within the sanctuary, is expected to deliver a brief address at the close of the mass. Of the many invitations sent out by Father MOST BENEFICIAL Cause of Its Bweetness Is Shown by Chemi- cal Analysis. b Chemists have long ago told us not anly1 what is the exact composition of the air, but also that this composition is prac- tically constant, whether the air be that near the mountain top or the sea, or from the country or of the town. 8o far, then, chemistry would not appear to offer any explanation of the benefit gained from a “change of air.” Similarly, every one knows the sweetness and freshness of the early morning air, attractive properties which disappear as the day advances; but so far as analysis goes the composition of’éarly morning air is not different from that of air at any other time. It will be remembered, however, that during the passing of night to day and of | day to night several physical changes take place. There is a fall in temperature at sunset and a rise again at dawn, and consequently moisture is alternately being thrown out and taken up again, and it is well known that change of state is ac- companied by electrical phenomena and certain chemical manifestations also. The formation of dew has probably, therefore, far more of dew effects that merely the moistening of objects with water. Dew nearly half a hundred have notified him they will present. They are coming from various parts of California, and if the celebration was on a week day the attendance of the clergy would be much larger, as many of them are unable to leave their own pulpits on’ Sunday. WILL ENJOY DINNER. After the high mass to-mogrow the clergy guests will take dinner with Father King. Special music will be ren- dered during the high mass by an aug- mented choir under the direction of Pro- fessor Adolf Gregory. After the evening vesper service Father King will be the honored guest at a re- ception and surprise to be tendered him by his parishioners in St. Mary's Hall. This affair 1s in the hands of the follow- ing committee: J. J. McDonald, J. J. White, James Daly, J. F. Kennedy, J. J. Kennedy, John Lynch, James Martin, Martin Ryan, T. P. Hodges, J. J. Cadogan, James M Ellroy, J. F. Kelly, W. P. Slattery, Pat- rick Flynn and M. J. Cincurulo.

It is not improbable that the pecullarly attractive and refreshing quality which marks the early morning air has its origin in this way. Certain it is that the brac- ing property of the early morning air wears off as the day advances and it is easy to concelve that this loss of fresh- ness is due to the oxygen, ozone or per- oxide of hydrogen (whichever it may be) being used up. The difficulty of inducing grass to flourish under a tree in full leaf 18 well known, and it is generally explain- ed by saying that the tree absorbs the nourishing constituents of the sofl or that 1t keeps the sunlight away from the grass and protects it from rain. It is doubtful whether any of these explanatipns are true, the real reason most probably being that the vitallzing dew cannot form upon the grass under a tree, whereas as a rule both rain and light can reach it. Dew is probably essential to the well being of both plant and animal to a greater extent than is known and the beautifui expres- sion In the prayer book, “Pour upon them the continued dew of thy blessing,” may be remembered in this connection.—Lon- don Lancet. —_————— WILMINGTON, Del., July 11.—In the Unit- ed States Circuit Court here to-day, on the ap- plication of Roland B.

When Father King arrived here in 1865 he found an humble frame buld- ing for a church and dwelling In course of construction. It stood on the north side of Seventh street, between Jefferson and Grove, and was used for religlous worship until the present church of the Immaculate Conception was built some years later.

Berkeley Office San Francisch Call, 2148 Center Street, July 11 Willie Ovendina, 6 years old, playing with matches, set fire to his mother's home at 8§10 Chester street, and but for the bravery and self-sacrifice of Fireman George P. Fraser would have been burned to death. The little fellow was alone in the house at the time, and when he saw the kitchen all ablaze became so paralyzed with fear that he made no attempt to escape. When Fireman Fraser, who was the first to arrived at the scene, looked in the window he saw the boy standing spelibound in the midst of a wall of fire. The flames had just begun to lick his body. Fraser saw something must be done at once, so he dashed tarough a blazing doorway to the rescue. Grabbing the boy around the body he hurriedly shielded him from the flames and then dashed back to safety. It was all done in a mo- ment, but not an Instant too soon, for a crash of falling timbers followed imme- diately. The house was totally wrecked before the fire department got through with it. e Canada’s export trade per capita is just 1 two and a half times as much as ours. C EGYPTS RELICS ENRICH MUSEUM Antiques Added to the Stanford University Collection. Specimens of Handicraft of Olden Civilization Dis- played. PALBETIT, Special Dispatch to The Call STANFORD UNIVERSITY, July 11.— Of the collections recently added to the Leland Stanford Junior Museum the most interesting and valuable is a group of Egyptian antiques that has just been in- stalled in one of the newly erected wings of the building. The antiques arrived from Egypt last week, but were shown to the public for the first time to-day. Many pecple visited the museum to view the curious relics of a lost civilization. The specimens formed the most impor- tant part of the private collections of Emil Brugsch Bey, the noted Egyptian archaeologist, who has lately retired from the curatorship of the famous Gizeh Museum and is disposing of his many collections, after a lifetime spent in searching for them among the buried cit-| fes of the Nile. Mrs. Stanford procured the present consignment from among nu- merous bidders through a strong friend- ship which existed between the venerable | Scholttmann for Humboldt County M. Bey and young Leland Stanford while the latter was gathering curlos abroad. The callection consists of about 330 pleces, arranged in six large cases, and includes some of the most remarkable archaeological remains ever taken from the Egyptian fleld. There are specimens of the handicraft of men who lived 000 years ago—handicraft that shows by its finish and delicacy of workmanship that even in that remote period civilization had long ceased to be young. There are stone images of men and gods, some Won- derfully wrought in detail There are toys with which the iittle brown skinned Egyptians amused themselves 3000 years DISCUSS WORK OF MISSIONS Delegates to Lutheran Conference Report Expenses.

Then there are many household uten- sils and warlike weapons amulets, shrines, vases, bowls, etc de of baked earth; enameled porcelain, alabaster, marble, stone, silver and bronze, all ma ing up an array that is like a mome tary kaleldoscopic glimpse back through Roman culture and Greek art to the very threshold of civilization, where that cul- ture and art was taking first shape: back to the time when great cities stretched along the Nile, when the anclent Egypt- jan empire had just begun, and Menes, the first king, yet lived fresh in the mem- ory of his people. Doubtless the most historically impor- tant_plece in the entire collection is a small, rude clay model of a dwelling such as was built during the twelfth dynasty, about 3000 B. C. It shows a cubical, two- exterior stone steps a human figure reclines upon a mat. In front of the building is a courtyard with high walls of terra cotta and a fountain in the center. Three large canopic vases of alabaster are especially fine. They are crowned by carved lids representing human heads and were used by the Egyptians to contain the viscera from bodles that were to be embalmed. These were put in the tombs with the mummy. There are also sev- eral mummy masks painted and decor- | ated in brilllant designs, with colors that all the ages since have scarcely dimmed. One entire case is filled with statuettes and small human figures, some made of red unburnished terra cotta, others of hard enameled porcelain, colored in light green, pale blue, yellow and brown and bearing hieroglyphics. They are funeral figures and were buried with the dead. The inscriptions upon them correspond to the modern tombstone inscriptions. One of them reads, “In the name of Psametic, born by Amenixites,” Psametic being the name of a king of the twenty-sixth dy- nasty. There is a necklace in the collection taken from the mummy of a daughter of the great Pharoah. One of the rarest specimens is a clay stele, or writing tab- let, covered with hierogiyphics which rep- resent King Amosis of the twenty-sixth dynasty making an offering to a god. All the articles of the collection were gathered by Emil Brugsch Bey from among the tombs and sarcophagi of the | old Egyptian kings, unearthed among the ruins of Memphis, Thebes, and Saggarat. These places are the principal sources of all the Egyptian archaeological antiqui- ties yet discovered. @ il @ OFFICERS TAKE YOUNG SMITH Say He Helped Bolster Up Tale of Bock's Broken Knee.

It consisted in going around and finding chuck holes that were easy to fall into. Bock has a fractured knee and he worked it over- time in the search for holes in sidewalks. As scon as he found a suitable one he would fall into it, claim to have fractured his knee and sue for damages, which he generally got. The two Smiths used to back up his claims with their testimony, which was ready made. In this way the gang got $2500 damages from Astoria, $2000 from Seattle, $180 from the Oakland Rallroad Company, $00 from a Mrs. Hinton of San Francisco and other amounts from other places.
