Its Patron saint.
On the church calendar to-day is desig
mated as the Feast Of St. Anthony, and il
observance Of the names day Of its
patron saint special services were
held at st. AnthOny's Catholic
church. Solemn high mass was cele.
brated this morning Mt 0 o'clock and u fea.
ture of the event was tho magnificent floral
decoration Of the affairs. Tho services
were conducted by Rev. Fathers Relt.
Christ, GrOtemeycr and FOin. and Mozart s
Twelfth Mass was the composition selected
for rendition by tho choir upon this special
occasion. It was finely sung throughout,
the voices of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Drach-
bar, Mr.. and Mrs. John Hicmcnz, the
Misses Hiemcnz, KasSer, and indeed OF
all the members of St. AnthOny's excel
lent choir being heard to advantage, whilst

Dedication of st. Stepnen's New Organ.
Yesterday was festive day for the men,
bcrs' of st. Stephens Evangelical Luther
al church, as it was the occasion of the
dedication of the large new pipe organ
purchased by the congregation several
weeks ago from Messrs. POmplitz Il Otto,
Of Baltimore. The church, which was
handsomely decorated with flowers, was
we'll filled in the morning and the services
began with IN appropriate hymn by the
choir, under the efficient leadership of
Mr.. A. Offender. The pastor, Rev. E.
Meister, consecrated the new organ and
delivered a very eloquent address, which
was followed by hymn by tho congrega
ton with organ anaccompaniment on the new
instrument, which sounded through the
building with it's powerful bass and then
again with the soft sweet strains resem-
bling the warbling of thousands of birds.
The pastor thau began his elaborate ser
mon, selected from the 15Oth Psalm, which
was followed by the history of the con-
gregatiOn from its infancy up to the day
on which it was decided to procure an
organ which makes st. Stephens church
complete. A collection was next in order
and the result was highly gratifying.
The evening services were especially Ell.
tertainins and interesting. The Sunday
school scholars were present in a body,
by their teachers. Tho
church which has sitting room for 500
persons, was crowded to its utmost capac-
ity, and the services began with hymn
by the children, and reading of the scrip
turc. This was followed by the sermon
by the paster, selected from Matthew
xviii, 10. The services were then closed
by prelude by Prof. Matz. Prof. Emil
Aust Oficiated at the organ in the morn
ing. The day will undoubtedly rest in. the
memory of the members and friends Of st.
church as pleasant event.

No Place for a Cat.

Jim Townsend of Lundy, says the
| Bodie Free Press, has been making some
experiments with an ordinary domestic
cat 1t has been repeatedly stated that
cat could not live at an altitude Of
$4,000 feet above the sea. Mr.. Town
send has demonstrated the fact that
such is fact. On Monday last he and
another gentleman made the ascent Of
Castle Peak, which is little over 1000
feet high. They took with them Il cat
-Thomas-that was 4 year Old, and
had lived at an altitude of 5000 feet
with no symptoms of disease. Mr..
Townsend had the cat in box and
as they went up he took observations
and noted very carefully every move
ment of the feline. When the summit
was reached they pitched their tent :
this was about O'Clock in the after
noon. The cat partoOk of some food and
after playing for an hour or SO fell asleep
and did not wake up until near mid
night. When it did recover conscious
ness, it set up bowling and appeared
much distressed. Townsend pitied it
and endeavored to make it feel at home !;
but no use. 1t kept up its constant
moaning and displayed symptoms of its
having fits. When morning came the
cat was offered food, but it refused to
eat, and acted even more strange than
during the night. Townsend says it
would open its mouth as if gasping for
breath would Jump aoout, then go to
sleep and wake up with a start. All
this while close watch was kept and
every movement noted. At 5 o'clock
in the afternoon the cat died of eXhaus-

The attendance yesterday at the
State Fair was larger than on any
former day, the beautiful weather
| bringing out many who had absented
themselves during the earlier days.
The first race, mile and One-half
dash, was between a couple of flyers,
the Winters horse Fred. Collier and
the Lucky Baldwin mare ClaraD. The
mare was the favorite in the pools in
the proportion of four to one, that is,
$50 to 50, and as frequently happens
on the best regulated race tracks, the
low pool buyers in this case were the
lucky ones. Fred. Collier was winner
in 2:40s.
The second race was a single half
mile dash between Cousin Vic, Tommy
Chandler and Lulu Riggs. The pugil-
istically-named quadruped was as much
favorite as was his namesake when
he knocked Dooney Harris almost over
into Alameda county few years ago.
But in horse racing, as in some other
things, one cannot always drop On the
right horse. Lulu Riggs won the dash
handsomely in O.494.
The closing race, trotting, to harness,
three in five, had but two entrees:
William Tell and Bell Spencer. The
mare, one of the handsomest animals
ever put in suIky shafts, behaved bad
ly, and Tell hit the purse apple three
times, thus 2:4O, 1884! and 2:3z.
To-day will show up fine trOtting
race with Maggie G., lump Winston
and Ashley in three in five go.
