Carter Wants Sister-in-Law Punished for the Breaking of Glass BIGIPERIAR. e SHE SPREADS TERROR okl s ey Fer Fancied Insult Mrs. Mary Hardigan Bombards Home of Her Relatives Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center street, Sept. 29. Following a family quarrel that re- sulted in the smashing of all the win- dows on the front of his house, Charles C. Carter of 1622 Todd street swore to [ a complaint to-day before Justice of the Peace Edgar charging his sister- in-law, Mrs. Mary Hardigan, with ma- licious mischief. Mrs. Hardigan disap- peared after the row, but a constable is on her trail and he expects soon to have her in the clutches of the law. According to the story Carter told!/ a dressmaker, came over from her home at Seventeenth and Folsom streets, San Francisco, yesterday ' to wreak vengeance for some fancled in-| sult. On her way down the street Mrs. Hardigan filled her apron - full of stones, evidently preparing for a bom- bardment. When she got in front of the Carter home she began to fling her ammuunition vigorously. That Mrs. Hardigan is the one| woman who can throw a stone straight Carter is willing to declare on his oath. He says every stone she hurled hit a window, with the result that in a lit- tle while there were no more panes in the front windows of the house. It was useless to try to prevent’ the de- struction and the bombardment con- tinued until the Hardigan rock supply was exhausted. FINE MUSICALE. AR By Zoe Green Radcliffe.

WITH ELOQUENCE AND DEVOTION HOME OF MONKS IS DEDICATED Coadjutor Archbishop Montgomery Makes Eloquent Speech, High Pontifical Mass Is Then Celebrated and Fran- ciscans See Structure Blessed Under Pleasing Auspi — ces OAKLAND, Sept. 29.—The ‘new home of the Franciscan monks in“Frauitvale, which was ereeted under the direction of the Right Rev. Father Dennis Schu- ler of ‘Rome, the head of the Francis- can order, was solemnly dedicated this morning in the presence of a large del- egation of clergymen, the congrega- tion of St. Elizabeth Church, and many visitors from both sides of the bay. The ceremony of consecration was conducted by his: Grace Coadjutor Archbishop Montgomery, assisted by the Very Rev.. Father. Theodore’ of | Watsonville, Rev. Father. Maximilian Neumann and Rev. Father Maximijlian Klein, both of* San Francisco. The rcises began at St. Elizabeth’s Church at 10 o’clock -this morning with the celebration of the Veni Creato with responses by Archbishop Mont- gomery, after which the Archbishop, accompanied by the attending clergy- men, the monks of the Fruitvale com- munity, and the altar boys and con- gregation of the church, marched to the new monastery, and, passing in solemn procession - ‘around . the building and through - the rooms of the edifice, be- stowed upon it the blessing of the Catholic -church.

Father Pius of the Fruitvale community as master of ceremonies. - At the:close of the mass Archbishop Montgomery de- livered ‘an appropriate sermon, relat- ing briefly the history of the Francis- can order and its work on’the Pacific Coast: In part the Archbishop said: "Phe occasion of the dedication of this-mon- astery is an auspicious one not only to. the ople of this parish, but also tothe congre- Fatlon of every Catholic church on' the . Pa: cific Coast. More than 150 years have since the Franciseans came to California and planted ihe cross on the shores of the Pacific. Many years befcre the Declaration of Independence. the monks of the order were preaching to the Indians, ccnverting them from paganism to Christianity. OLD DOCTRINE. LIVES, Those who gave their lives to the “teaching of the Indians spoke a different language from ours, but they taught them the same doctrine, which has remained unchanged to the present day. The misstons have = passed from Spanish to German, still the same faith prevails. It ls most fitiing that the present members of the order which first planted the cross in California .should have &' ‘share in Apholding and enjoying the fruits-of the un- selfish labors of their predecéssors. “Weé -who enjoy the benefits of our- ern civilization can little imagine the dangers and hardships Which they endured: The Franciscan monastery, ~which whs dedicated to-day, s located: on Bray avenue,; -adjoining St. Elizabeth’s Chureh. The plans for the structure were drawn by Brother: Adrian, a mem- ber of the Franciscan order, and the style is that of the old Spanish mis- sions of California. - The bullding is surrounded on all sides by a covered arcade, the roof of ‘which is supported by massive pillars, ‘which at th« top are ‘expanded, the whole-forming a con- tinuous row of arches around the mo- nastery.

ADVERTISEMENTS. BEGOMIN A MOTHER Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing ‘compares with the ‘pain and horror of child-birth. The thought of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations.of the coming event, and casts over her a =hadow of which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother’s Friend during pregnancy robs .confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial.
