A little later the through the principal streets of the | town the imposing procession marched | to St. Vincent's Church, where a high | mass was celebrated. The walls of the sacred edifice were decorated with palms. The upright chandeliers were twined with smilax and each was| adorned with a bow of red, white and | blue ribbons. The mass was sung by | Father Doogan. Father Netterville was deacon and Father Clyne subdea- | con. Father Driscoll delivered an elo- | quent and impressive sermon. He spoke of the benefits of organization and exhorted his hearers never to swerve from the path of rectitude, but as the knights of old, be true knights of modern society. Be a friend, he said, to all mankind, irrespective of creed or nationality, and show the world that the era of knighthood has not passed, but has only reached its| golden age. The music was one of the features of a very interesting occasion, and was rendered by the choir of San Francisco Council, led by Rev. J. B. Hannigan, while Professor Artigues of Californla | Council was organist. Gounod's “Messe Breve” was given with beauty and im- pressiveness, and Joseph J. Rosborough sang “O Salutaris” as an offertory with fine effect. After mass the visitors were served ith lunch at Eagles’ Hall by the Cath- | ifficers elect of the new local council | were installed in San Pablo Hall and the organization instituted. St. Vincent’s Council of Vallejo has a charter list exceeding sixty. Its offi- cers are: _P. B. Lynch, grand knight; John Cunningham, deputy knight; J. J. Stanley, chancellor; J. R. Whitaker, financial secretary; J. J. Kennedy, war- den; F. A. McGinley, recorder; F. J. Fitzmaurice, inside guard; W. J. Tor- mey, outside guard; J. T. O'Hara, lec- turer; Rev. W. A. Netterville, chaplain; trustees—J. A. Jones, Luke Burke and ‘W. H. McCrystal; Dr. J. J. Hogan, phy- sician; J. J. McDonald, treasurer; Thomas Smith, advocate. Degrees were conferred as follows: The first by Neil Power, grand knight of San' Francisco Council No. 615; Frank T. Shea, deputy grand knight; John Mott, chancellor, and D. J. Shee- han, warden. The second degree was conferred by J. E. McElroy, grand knight of Oakland Council No. 784, and the third by Joseph Scott, State depu- ty, assisted by Willlam Lennett and the State degree team. The work of instituting the new council ran well into the night and the visitors did not leave here on the steamer Corcoran until a late hour. On the trip down a banquet was served on the steamer.

Simon Wolf, president of the Order of B'nal B'rith, who arrived Friday honor possible by his coreligionists. He was the guest of honor at a! banquet Saturday night given by the’| members of the local organization in the marble hall of the Palace Hotel. : M. H. Wascerwitz, granc. president of | the State organization, presided as | toastmaster and introduced the guest of the evening. President Wolf, who is a brilliant orator, spoke in an interesting way of the progress made by the Jews of the and of the important position they f the two continents. He also pre- dicted a greater future for those of the Jewish faith and appealed to the younger members of the race to strive harder for unity of purpose and unity of principles. Among the other speak- ers of the evening were: Edmund Tauszky, Hugo K. Asher, Rev. M. S. Levy, Lucius L. Solomons and Otto I. Wise. In the morning President Wolf ad- dressed a large gathering at the Tem- ple Emanu-EL Yesterday he was shown many courtesies and was driven to some of the most interesting points about the city and its suburbs. A grand recep- tion will be tendered President Wolf this evening at Lyric Hall, when it is expected he will deliver an address. ——— Burnett’s Extract of Vanilla is the ‘best, perfectly pure, highly concentrated. ¢ ——— YOUNG VANDALS BREAK INTO FRANKLIN SCHOOL Boys Climb Into Rooms of the Cook= ing Class and Wreck the Outfit. John Viegas, 12 years old, and Joe McKeon, 13, entered the Franklin School, on Eighth street, between Har- rison and Bryant, on Saturday after- poon by climbing up a drain pipe. After gaining an entrance they ‘went irto the kitchen, where the pupils are instructed in the art of culinary studies. Here cooking utensils were handled with a disregard to their fu- ture usefulness in the diffusion of knowledge. Cupboards were broken open and materials were strewn about the floor. The timely arrival of Po- liceman Thomas Connolly put an end to the boys’ fun and from the school- house to the Southern police station at last Friday night, when the board of directors of the fair met.

Edward Olsen committed suicide by taking carbolic acid in the basement of the Hotel St. Vincent, 390 Jones street, yesterday afternoon. He had a window washer. Miss Anne West, one of the guests of the hotel, stated that he had worked around there for about three weeks, and as he had no sleep- ing place, Mrs. Marie Stone, the land- lady, had allowed him to sleep in the cellar. —_————— RUSH IT.

RADER SPEAKS OF LONDON’S POOR Says City Is Overstocked With For- eigners Who Are a Burden on the Empire. “Bitter Cry of Outeast London, or a Message From Whitechapel,” was the subject of a sermon delivered by the Rev. Willlam Rader at the Third Con- gregational Church last evening. The attendance taxed the capacity of the church and many were unable to gain admittance. Mr. Rader said that London is a magnet, drawing to itself all sorts and conditions of men. *“If they were to pave Petticoat Lane with gold to-day it would be as bad to-morrow. In the | ery is the voice of the unfit, who must contend with the law of the survival of the fittest.

The members are taking an active part and an enjoyable time is promised, Attractive Feature in 'the New Bill of Fun Produced | Last Night at Orpheum g et “TOUGH GIRL” IS CLEVER | Performance Full of Good Turns That Please the Audience—Other Theaters s L RS AY Two, certainly, of the new turns at the Orpheum deserve place with Tech- ow's cats and “Her Last Rehearsal,” which arithmetic adds up the bill as one of the best of the season. The Dumond Minstrels furnishes one of them. This time the favorite trio needs reintroduction. The lank and rakish fiddler has disappeared and in his place is the daughter of Monsieur, the guitarist, plump, contralto and trousered like a gamin. Madamoiselle was a little nervous last night, but seems to promise, with her pretty and prettily used voice and naive and charming personality, an attractive third in the trio. They were, as usual, lavishly applauded, Monsieur, the fid- dler, with his Irish and Scotch songs, receiving a handsome share. The other turn in particular is that of W. J. Sullivan and Clarice Pasque- lena in “A Newsboy’s Appeal.” The sketch Is not another “Skinny’s Fin- ish,” nor are Sullivan and Pasquelena quite a Joe Tucker and Eva Williams, but they’ll do all right. Miss Pasque- lena’s tough girl is probably a good deal more like the real thing than Miss Willlams’. In fact it might be a little less realistic with advantage. But the thing is as vital as a snapshot and no end funny—though vulgar. Mr. Sulli- van sings—well, if he were on the musical comedy stage one would be afraid of waking up. He has a pe- culiarly soft and pleasing tenor and sings with nice feeling. The Harvey Comedy Company, in “Wanted, a Groom,” are also among the new people. The sketch is well acted and serves to amuse. Owley and Randall break crockery in yery free-handed fashion in their juggling act, which is rather original and com- ical. Lewis McCord and his company in “Her Last Rehearsal” have been held over another week, with Jose- phine de Witt and Sinon and Paris and you can still take your cat to see Techow’s. He shouldn’'t miss them, nor you the rest. » Simsie Kopta’s Recital Wins. The warm place that Wenzel Kopta holds in the likings of the fiddle loving public was happily evident yesterday | afternoon in the hearty reception that | greeted him at his recital at Lyric Hall. The hall was not so full as it might have been, but the crowd was both musical and enthusiastic. It is possibly fancy, but to me the character of Mr. Kopta’'s playing seems to have more of the classical quality than when I last heard it. And why not? Kopta is not the kind of violinist to stand still and this development is perhaps likeller than another with that fiery youth of fifty! I felt it in the Bazzini concerts that opened the pro- gramme, a dignified and dramatic work that promises much to further acquaintanee. With the Seethoven F major romance it seemed to me that I was quite sure of it. Mr. Kopta gave the little movement with a breadth and poise that I do not remember him | before to have brought to a Beethoven rendering. Of course he was at his most likable In the romanticism of the Tschaikow- sky Canzonetta, played with charming fceling and again most happy in the Special Sale of SILK SKIRTS Commencing to-day we will place on sale a large shipment of BLACK, COLORED and PLAID SILK SKIRTS.

One rather hoped for the Ries Per- | petuo Mobile for the encore, but some one reached Mr. Kopta before me with a request for “The Cascade.” Great fun it is, too, and was brilllantly given. The Vieuxtemps “Balade et Polonaise de Concert” closed Mr. Kopta's part of the programme. The violinist was cleverly and sympathetically accompa- nied by Gyula Ormay, whose work, barring a bit of hardness and dryness of tone, is entirely satisfactory. Assisting Mr. Kopta was Miss Maude Hohmann, soprano, a Californian singer, who made yesterday her debut after some years of Eastern study.

BLANCHE PARTINGTON. The California Theater has this week Charles A. and Harry Lester Mason, who, in their funny characters of “Fritz and Snitz,” keep their audi- ences in a continuous laugh.

Steinway Hall was fllled last night with an enthuslastic audience that listened to the operatic concert pro- gramme given under the direction of | Signor Gustavo Panizza, who has for many years conducted a school in this city. The chief event of the even- | ing was the ovation tendered Signor Panizza, on his singing Cavatina from “Barbiere.” This rendering was re- markable owing to the fact that Sig- | nor Panizza is 77 years old, and the selection a very difficult one. Signor Avedano, who was a tenor at the Tivoli four years ago, was also on the programme. The work of the chorus under Signor Panizza called forth much applause. The other partici- pants were: Miss Stella Mariana, Miss Domenici (plano solo), Signor Fantoni, Signor Almagia and Profes- .| sor Martinez, accompanist. —————— 3 | | E : | | E§ £} ] ref ifi §ex 5 2l i A i the Kopta Quartet concerts, with the | WILL LECTURE ON NAPOLEON.— second tecture o e pid course on “The Napoleonto Period,” mow being held by the Mechanics' Institute, will be de- livered to-night at the Mechanics’ Pavilion Art Gallery by Professor H.
