Mallon celebrated his first mass fol- lowing his ordination as a priest in the church of the parish where he spent his boyhood. Father Mallon was assisted yesterday in the celebration of the sol- emn mass by Father Cary, Welsh and Father Stark in Old St Mary’s Church, situated at the corner of Dupont and California streets. Father Mallon began his preparatory studies at St. Mary’s College of the Christian Brothers, Oakland. Five years ago he left San Francisco for Washington, D. C., where he entered the Paulist House of Studies. Following along and arduous theological course in Washington, Father Mallon was or- dained September 21 by Bishop Cusack, the auxiliary Bishop of New York. After an absence of five years Father Mallon’s one desire was to celebrate his first mass in the city of his birth, in the church that he loved so well and surrounded by relatives and friends. His stay will be short, for he will leave during the week for Chicago, where he will be assigned to the Paulist House. Father Mallon has two brothers who | are also in the priesthood—Valesian of St. Mary’s College, community of Christian Brothers, and Gregory, of the Sacred Heart College in this city. o (ONGRESSME Republicans Announce Mass Meeting at the Alhambra for Next Saturday Night S SR The Republican Congressional cam- paign of the Fourth and Fifth districts will be opened at the Alhambra Thea- ter next Saturday evening. Julius Kahn, E. A. Hayes, Thomas P. Dozier of Redding, Frank P. Flint of Los An- gelés and other well-known speakers will address the people. The, prospects of Republican success in these districts are dally growing brighter. The Second Congressional District Republican Editorial Association met yesterday at the headquarters of the State Central Committee, Palace Hotel. General George Stone, chairman of the State committee; E. F. Woodward, sec- retary, and Duncan E. McKinlay, the standard-bearer of the party in the dis- trict, exchanged views with W. F. Mixon, Woodland Mail; F. B. Mac- kinder, St. Helena Star; J. E. Olm- stead, Petaluma Argus; F. P. Brophy, assistant secretary; J. L. Allison, Co- lusa Herald; J. D. Graanier, Sonoma Index-Tribune; Mr. Hastings, Geyser- ville Gazette; P. H. Olmstead, San Ra- Enterprise. McKINLAY'S MAJORITY. The Republican newspaper men of the district are confident of Mr. M Kinlay’s election by a large majorit but do not intend to diminish work in his behalf on account of the assurances of victory. Vigorous efforts will be put forward to bring every registered voter the polls. It was clearly demon- inee, has been forced to abandon the platform of his party and omit all ref- erence to Alton B. Parker, the Demo- cratic candidate for President. There was a general tally of reports that Bell | was explaining and floundering. Under jcover he is appealing to | Sons, the Eagles and the Red Men for | | political assistance. His campaign tac- | OIL EXPLOSION WRECKS the Native tics in this respect will be fully dis- closed by the Republican press. There is a strong element of Republican citi- zenship in these organizations, and the scheme of Bell and his managers to put | a Democratic tag on the fraternal or- ders will not succeed. Though Bell does not openly deny that he is the nominee of the Demo- cratic organization, he refuses to go be- fore the people and proclaim his alle- giance to_the principles of that party. Old-line Democrats of the district are not giving him the support that they would give to a Democrat who pos- sessed the courage to stand by his | party in adversity. SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS.

The find- | ings have been returned to Washing- | ton and are said to be in the hands of | the qtiartermaster general, yet these | papers are not offered as evidence in rebuttal of the criticism to which the department has been subjected. The investigation of the army trans- port service that is now on or has been ordersed for a near date will seek to eliminate abuses that are apt to result in the handling of a vast governmental institution. The thing to be ascertained is, “Who in the present employ of the service have been, directly or indirect- 1y, responsible for past abuses?” Grover has claimed that these men are still in ! the Government employ. Who they are only the board of inquiry and the ‘Washington officials know. They are men, it is said, who were employed un- der a prior transport administration.

WAGGING JAW S DISLOCTE Three Times Joseph Whitney Tries Fiercely to Orate,| but Maxillary Gives Out ST R Three times within five minutes Jo- seph Whitney dislocated his jaw in at- tempts at oratory at the Central Emer- gency Hospital last night. He was car- ried into the operating-room with his maxillaries temporarily disabled by a wallop on the point of the chin. Dr. Kucich started the jaws working with a touch of his fingers. “If I catch at,” began Whitney, “I err—ugh.” The threat ended in a slutter, for the jaw was out again. The surgeon once more put the jaws into working order. “I'll keep quiet now,” said Whitney. “But if I ever catch that—ugh.” The jaw was out again. Dr. Kucich patiently pulled the loos- ened maxillary into place. “Thank you, docto said Whitney. “If I catch| that—" The jaw was again dislocated.
