The | ‘sl-lendid. enthusiastic work of this com- | mittee has been a delight, a satisfaction | and a revelation to all interested in its activity.

The night schools, | the branch the kindergartens, the social settle- ments, etc., have been visited and in- vestigated. An exhaustive study of the all-im- portant subject of funds and legislative provisions has been made; costs of | equipping gymnasia, playgrounds, | have been secured, and conditions in other cities and counties have been | sought.

Felton, Del Lake and others of | the same era and rank. Mr. Rix was born at Stanstead, in Canada East, on April 7, and had therefore passed his eighty-third birthday. At the age of 6 ars he removed with his family to | ew Hampshire, where they resided until he was 18, when another removal carried them to Peacham, Vt. About this time the vouth entered the Univer- | sity of Vermont, from which he was | graduated in 1846. For two years he | |acted as princinal of the school at Peacham. In 1549 he began the prac- tice of law in itnership with the son of the Governour of Vermont. COMES TO CALIFORNIA. In 1851, having, like many other am- bitious young men, caught the Califor- 'nia fever, Rix came West and mined lrur a year on the North Fork of the | American River. The following year, | however, found him in San Francisco ‘toathlng in the public schools and pre- ‘panng for the bpractice of hLis profes- sion. At one time he was a Justice of | the Peace, and in 1866 he was appointed by the Governor of the State to fill an | unexpired term as Police Judge. With, the exceptions of these periods in judi- |1'Ial office his life was given up to an ceedingly active and lucrative prac- tice until his retirement, which oc- curred some fifteen years ago. The decedent was a man of practical mind, and this trait led him into patent law as his favorite vocation. Among the famous cases with which he was connected was the litigation over the Nobel dvnamite patent. He had drawn the original patent on which Nobel built up his vast industry, that now has its factories in nearly every Euro- pean country and under which high explosives were manufactured in the United States. b ATTORNEY FOR NOBEL. The litigation over this patent occu- pied Judge Rix for years, in the courts both of the United States and Europe. He was also general counsel for the Atlartic Dynamite and Giant Powder Company, as well as for many other corporations.. His practical bent led him to interest himself In the problem of cable railways In San Francisco, and the solution of this question was worked'out with his professional aid. Judge Rix was married twice, but survived his second wife, who was Miss Margaret Tuite, who died in 1894. He leaves four sons— Julian Rix, the well-known artist; Ed- ward A. Rix, the mechanical enginee: William Rix of the legal firm of Bis op, Wheeler & Hoefler, and Alfred Shir- ley Rix of San Jose. The funeral ser- vices, which wiJl be held at 2 o'clock to-morrow at the late residence of the deceased, will be private. In accord- ance with his expressed wishes, the re- mains will be cremated. & HOUSEWIFE'S DRUDGERY THE THEME OF SERMON “There is no labor union to protect the housewife, whose hours are un- limited,” said the Rev. William Rader in the course of a sermon, “To House- wives,” at the Third Congregational Church last night. The speaker said in par The housewife s an economist, teacher, physician, cook and general supervisor all in gue. Shé is the moral Inspiration of family e. We talk & lot about wrecked homes, but rarely is heard the accounts of happy homes of which 1 know there are many. Among the trials of the housewife are two— one Is the economic and the other is health. The battle with poverty and worry in an attempt to make both ends meet_are. often destructive of womanhood, and unnecessary anxiety s too often indulged until hon-n work becomes drudgery. 1t is better to be a good housewife and bring up children than to be a great actress with the world at her fect. There is po labor union to protect the housewife, whose bours are unlimited. and while we go on talking about the little widows. of India and other heathen, and while we look after the men and boys at home, there is no particular solicitude for the hou-e-m. who stands nearer the sources of civilization than the pastor or the college president or the scholar.
