all expectations of the early toilers in the
cause, and still the scope of endeavOr is

cohorts Of membership are ever on the in
crease.
In this mighty onward march Of a great
movement San Francisco has been well for
ward in the front ranks.
II has the distinction of being the city In
which the first Young Mems Christian A s.
5ociation in America was founded.
The first building owned by the assOca-
ton was al 522 California street, two-story
structure, which was the only real home the
Institution had during its initial fifteen
years Of life. The granite ediice recently
put up by the German Savings Bank now
occupies the site of the old Christian Asso-
citation headquarters.
There the founders labored, and the or
gsnization was in few years so augmented
as to members and blessed by prosperity
and success that the sccomm odations OF
what may be called the nursery of he as
ISOLATION were found 10 be inadequate.

Two Weeks Ago.
Mrs. Emily Hood has been missing since
a week ago last Sunday and all efforts 10
find out what has become Of her have
proved unavailing.
Mrs. Hood and her husband resided at 509
Post street in housekeeping rooms and
from all appearances got along pleasantly

Hood left the house at about noon without.
as far as Is known. having any idea as to
where she was going. Since then she has
not been seen by any one who knew her.
A brother OF Mrs. Hood disappeared from
New York some time ago aud all trace of
him was lost This disappearance of the
brother seemed to affect Mrs Hood and at
times she would become respondent.
When she left the house she took nothing
to indicate that she would remain away any
length OF time.
she was 81 years of age, of light complex
ion and somewhat inclined to plumpness.
She was Of English descent. When last
seen she wore black hat with a big bow at
the side and feathers. Her dress was
covered with q long, black broadcloth,
double-breasted coat.
Mr.. Hood says that he knows of 10 reason
why she should leave as she did, except that
her mind might have become deranged by
worrying over her brother; but few hours
before she went away she was bright and
cheerful as usual. just before she went
out she procured latch key for the front
door, and acted as though she would return
in few minutes. No uneasiness was felt
until the next day, when search was COM
meneed, but as yet has proved unsuccess fuI,

association after the building is done. Dona-

this respect by local tradespeOple. The
directors are confident that the furniture.
etc, will be Forthcoming in due time, and
that it will be appropriately luxurious.
The keynote to the essential motive of
the associations work was struck by Secre-
tary Mccoy when he said:
1--WE provide practical home for young
men, We try to keep them from getting
into the gutter, and provide them with
moral, intellectual and physical education
SO as to fit them to make the most of their
opportunities in life."
The exercises to-day in honor of breaking
the ground will take place on the site, and
ample provision has been made for the
large crowd that will desire to witness the
proceedings.
