When every thing is going wrong,
And nothing goes to suit you,
When men, instead of shaking hands,

Nor swear, nor cry confound it,
Brace up, and let your spirits climb!
You're bound 10 find in course OF Tim
Some way to get around it!
And when the mother Of your wife,
According to the fashion,
Insists on living at your house,
Don't fly up i'll y passion,
But when your temper starts to rise
Just push it down and ground it.
Her very presence you may hate.
Cheer up! and you'll lind. soon or late,
Some way TO get around it,
II with maiden you're in love,
And round her waist are trying
TO get your arm, whilo she reSists
With efforts most unlying,
Don't get excited, fume nor prapce.
Nor beat your breast and pound it.
Upon her waist Just keep your eye,
And you'll discover, if You Try,

highly artistic concert was given last
evening in Odd Fellows Hall under the aus
pices of several prominent Jewish citizens
for the purpose of raising funds to establish
a congregation and build temple in the
Western Addition. The receipts formed
nucleus for the large sum required. Cantor
S. Philo managed the pleasant affair, and
f. Victor Austin, young yirtuoso, who has
earned well-merited distinction for his
clever performances on the violin in Europe,
acted as musical director. He was very
ably assisted by Miss Elene S. Austin in
bringing the entertainment to a successful
close, as she played the accompaniment
gracefully and with brillianey and rare col
Oring.
Every number on the programme won ap-
plause and encores were given. The in
strumental music Of Senior S. Martinez and
the exquisite rendering of Mendelssohn'S
concerto in + minor for the violin, and Sara
Austin, were genuine musical treats in
expression, execution and high ARTISTIC
merit. Adolf Lado also charmed the au-
dience with his cello solos. Nine. Ida
Naierga gave just taste of Italian opera
as may be heard only when the best Italian
companies pay this city an occasional visit.

EFFECTS UF CARE.

It Causes the Contrast Between Man
and the Universe.
In the assembly at the First Unitarian
Church last night there were several upon
whose heads were silvered hair. They
could appreciate Rev. Mr.. Stebbins' por-
trayal of care He likened it to "a brood of
bad-omen birds that perch on ones pillow
and mock at ones pain after the last effort
has been made to do ones best" As ad-
ditional SMILES he designated care as "a
wildering sea, means to jangle ali melo-
dies into discord, a peStient breath from
the undrained marshes of lost hopes"
His remarks upon care were introduced
to present one of the principal causes for
the contrast between man and the universe
the troubles of life darkening mans in
telllgence OF the glory of his magnificent in
herltance. To make his meaning more
plain, he said There is painting by
great artist representing David tine King
sitting in Oriental splendor at the close of a
sunny day. With his own hand he has re-
moved his crown and cast his jewels at his
feet, His attitude oetrays intense sorrow;
yet he was supposed to have unlimited re-
sources for happiness at his disposal"
Comparing the wealth of mans inheri-
lance to the manner in which it is enjoyed,
he declared that this is an age too timid
for individuality, and little is to be seen
that is equal to mans honor or dignity ac-
cording to his exalted origin. While on the
one hand we may be sometimes amazed at
mans greatness in science and philosophy,
we are more frequently disguised with his
degradation"
MIR. Stebbins announced that his subject
next Sunday evening would be THE Origin,
Work and Growth of the Salvation Army"

The Golden West Clubs First Meeting
Great Success.
Fully $50 of the coursiDg fraternity at
tended the Golden Vests initial meeting at
Newark Park yesterday. The weather was
very fine, the grounds of the park in excel
lent condition and the hares, almost with
out an exception, equal to any to be found
in the open country. and, as a consequence.
there was scarcely course run during the
day that did not give the best possible proof
as to which of the dogs was the best
The officers OF the day were most atten-
tive to their duties, and the judge, Mr..
Grace, gave unbounded satisfaction to all
losers and winners alike. AT the start some
little delay occurred, as the judges horse
did not arrive, through some mistake, on the
ground till past II o'clock. but once Mr..
Grace got in the saddle work went merrily
on without hitch to the fiLish.
OF the dogs in the match the ones that
distinguished themselves most were: Chico
pee Lass (the winneD, Woodsde. Catherine
Hayes, Mission Girl, Whip the runner up,
Nelly Bly,, Lady Hynes and Lily Hynes.
Some OF the courses were really wonderful,
and it was difficult to tell which was the
most admired, the splendid running, work
ing and staying powers OF the dogs, or the
singular fleetness, lodging and fencing"
tactics of the little hare in his efforts to
the courses nun during the 0ay those between
Catherine Hayes and Woodside, Soldier Boy
and Mission Girl, Lady Hynes and Rnstick
IN the first round, and those between Nelly
Bly, anu Whip i'll the third round and then
between Whip and Mission Girl in the fourth
round, were unQuestionab)y the most eXcit-
ing, and, indeed, many were of the opinion
that there were few, il any, courses like them
at the late meeting at MERGED. 1t was really
astonishing to see how the hares ran in
these trials, and to note how pleased the
spectators were when puSS succeeded in
making her escape, as she did on several oc-
easi0ns during the day. W. Halpin as lip
steward, I. I. Brady as flag steward, James
and O'ConDell as field stewards, were on the
alert and performed their various duties
with tact and care. The following is sum

OAKLAND CANOE CLUB.
The Eleventh Race in the Contest for tn Q

o. Z. c. Trophy.
The eleventh in series of races COM
menced last February by the Oakland Canoe
Club, tor its o. C. &. trophy, was sailed
yesterday on the Oakland estuary over a
triangular three-mile course against strong
northwesterly wind. In the first class were
the Jack, w. W. Blow. and the Gnat. G. A.
Warden; in the second the G psy, A. II.
Blow, and the Whisper, W. w. Morrow
No third-claSs boats entered and the start
was made promptly at l Al o'clock. The
Jack took the lead from the first and kept
well in advance of the other canoes over the
entire course, arriving at the home stake at
$40 o'clock, having sailed the course in /
hour minutes The Gnat was second to
cross the line, coming in at 2:40A o'clock,
making her full time l hour SS4 minutes
The Gypsy came in third at 2:5OR, having
bern on the course 1h. 13m. sos. The
Whisper, before the first turn Of the second
stake, was far behind, owing to the short
sails which she carried, and was conse-
quently Withdrawn from the race. As this
race belonged to a secOnd-claS5 entry, the
withdrawal of the Whisper gave the race to
the Gypsy This adds i've points to the
forty-nine credited to the Gypsy in former
races III this series, and practically settles
the question of awarding the trophy.
The points previously Won by the other
canoes in this contest are as follows: Mys-
tic 40 points, Gnat 81, Whisper SO, Jack 2S,
Sampler IS, Bonita %.
The twelfth and last race of the series
will be sailed on January 1st and will be
merely for sport, as the race of yesterday
gave the trophy to the Gypsy, owing to the
fact that not more than five points can be
made at one race. and the Gypsy has already
scored "a points.

SUNDAY PASTIMES.
Spirited Contests Before the Butts
at Shell Mound.
An Important Man-to-Man Match Shoot Be-
tween Companies of the National Guard
A Sprinting Record Broken.

Yesterday proved to be a cold, bitter day
for the markSmen who assembled at Shell
Mound. The wind blew strongly from the
north, causing the riflemen to add a little
extra tremble to their usual nervousness.
The members of the National Guard were
out in force. The Independent Rifles were
present and did their utmost to win the
medals of their company. The San Fran
cisco SchutZen Verein contested for the
medals Of that organization, and did some
good work Company A of the Fifth In
fantry, stationed in Oakland, did some good
practice
By far the most important event of the
day was the match shoot between Company
C of the First Infantry and Company b of
the Third Infantry. The shoot was one of
the most important which has ever taken
place between two military companies of
the State. Company has for long time
been the undisputed champion of this Coast.
The distinction has been won by long limo
of hard and successful contests before the
butts. That they are still the champions
they demonstrated by their excellent score
for twenty-five men in the face Of the keen
norther which prevailed.
So keen was the interest manifested in
yesterdays match that almost every COM
pany in the National Guard was represented
by member. Colonel Barry, Lieutenant
Colonel 0'Connor, Rifie-Inspector brady,
Judge Mckinstry, and large number of
citizens who are interested in rife matters,
were present TO witness the contest and
were constantly encouraging the marksmen
ana urging them to do their utmost.
EXCELLENT SCORES.
Captain Klein, who for more than seven
years has commanded Company c. has done
more for the cause of military rife shooting
and the formation of contests before the
butts than almost any other man in Cali
f0rnia. This company has never been de-
feated in q man-to-man contest for any num-
Der of men equalling twenty or more.
The result OF yesterdays shoot reflects
great credit upon both companies and shows
that they contain the men who are capable
of serving their country when the cause
shall arise.
Company c made the excellent score of
10l7 points out OF possible 1850, and aver
aged about S1l1a per cent. Company B made
a total OF $50 points, or nearly so per cent.
1t will thus be seen that the yictorS defeated
their opponents by q points.
Captain kennedy does not feel at all dis
Outraged by the outcome of the match and
says lie is proud to feel that he has men who
can reasonably hope to equal the champions
in n short time He says that a return
match will soon be had in which he hopes to
show the champions how company can
improve after struggle with sucn worthy
foemen.
Although Conn any B has been recognized
as shooting company only about one year,
they have made wonderful strides in the
art, and they will. no doubt, make brilliant
record IN the shooting world before long,
Below Will be found the scores in full of
the different competitions:
