BISHOP KIP'S WIDOW.
The Salary of Her Husband May Be
Continued.


On the first Tuesday In May Will be held
in this city convention of the Episcopal
clergymen and lay brothers of the San
Francisco diocese. at that meeting an
effort will be made TO grant to the widow of
the late Bishop Kip the salary of that d.
vine during the balance of her life.
Mrs. Kip is now so years of age and is be-
loved by all the members of her dead hus-
bands church, not alone because she was
the wife of Bishop Kip. but on account of
her many kindnesses and lovable DISPOSE
ton.
G. V. S. Gibbs. one of the oldest friends
OF the late Bishop and prominent layman
OF the church, is heartily In favor of the
plan and is using every endeavor to have
the matter practically decided before the
convention meets.
In speaking of the question last night he
said: ut has been customary to pay the
widow of a bishop the salary received by
her husband and think it will be done in
the case OF Mrs. Kip
Nov, while the salary of the Bishop
was nnminally 5000 per year. there was
only $1,000 of that amount paid by the do-
cese, while the balance was made up by
contributions from q few of the brothers.
Now, to continue the Bishops salary to the
widow would only mean $1,000 from the
general church funds.
''The Bishop gave freely of his income,
and had an expensive house to keep up.
The property where he lived Is about the
only thing he accumulated. 1t is probably
worth $4,000. but as Mrs. Kip has resided
there for the past twenty years we wa ut
her to continue in her Old home. / do not
think there will be any opposition to on
tinuing the salary, but the question will
come up in the convention.
All of the old pioneers who have known
Bishop Kip and his loving wife are heart
and soul in the matter and even II the sal
airy is not continued Mrs Kip will be well
remembered by her old frien ds''

Health Inspector Frank Koegel, accom-
panied by sad eyed Chinese, put in an APP
pearance at the Health Office yesterday
evening in response to pressing summons.
1t did not take Health Officer Keeney a
moment to recognize an old customer.
All Tom had been there before.
His case is not an advanced one, and vet
he was given a wide berth when he was
taken into the Health Office.
The unfortunate man was spotted" while
walking on Washington street, near Way
erly place. The Rev. DIR. Masters was near
by. and pronounced 1t a clear case of Iep-
rosy. DR.. Charlie Sing. a Chinese doctor,
confirmed the diagnosis.
Meanwhile a big crowd OF Chinese had
gathered around, and Sergeant Burke ap-
peared on the spot. He called on the sus-
pected man TO stop, but 1t was not till after
several attempts that he halted his man.
There seemed TO be reasonable doubts in
the officer's mind, but by this time the
crowd had greatly increased, and several
Chinese Insisted that the man was leper.
Finally the Health Office was comnuni-
Gated with and deputy sent down. Mean
while All Tom was detained by Sergea mt
Burke at the entrance of q house adjoining
the police station on Waverly place.
All Tom was not pleasing object physi-

were about to form combination whereby
1t would be arranged that none but non
union crews should be shipped on their
vessels.
A visit was paid to number OF lumber
dealers, some of whom maintain that such
movement is contemplated but seem to be
unable to furnish any information as 10 the
organization.
II such an organization was effected 1t
would include but small number OF the
owners of coasters, as the majority appear
TO be opposed TO making an agreement to
any such proposition, no matter what their
opinions are on the subject OF the sailors
union.

When the horses were going to the post
tn the first race 1t was noticed that the
jockeys not only wore their respective
numbers on their arms. but underneath
their saddles appeared a white towel bear

The second race on the card was mile

has run such good races with Sir Walter,
was always and odds-on favorite, while
Wieklow was second choice at 2 to 1. Ven

considered as in 1t.
There was very little betting on the
event. and it resulted as indicated by the
odds offered by the b0okIes. Martinez was
the trst away. but Miller took him back
and Jet ClacQuer and Wicklow make the
running up To the far turn. Then Miller
moved up with Martinez. He passed Wick

She was backed all over the ring by Tom
Williams at even money, and as there were
SO many supposed good things being played
in the race the price remained about the
same all the time.
Filtration had won race In easy fashion,

The occasion was a complimentary enter
tainment rendered by tho Young Mems

heartiness OF the applause the audience was
highly pleased, and the young actors de-
served all the encouragement given, as they
sustained their parts admirably.
Mr., Charles Reilly, the president or the
society, and Messrs. Taaffe and Flanagan,
are deserving of special mention. The two
latter as end men in the minstrels kept the
audience In constant laughter.

scenes in and around the city.
Mr.. Mackay expects to be out the first

the Coroner's Jury.

the Coroner'S Jury.
A Coroner's inquest was held last night
over the remains of Low Kew, the latest
victim of the highbiuders, who was shot
and killed In the doorway Of the brothel at
Is Stockton street on the morning of
April 8.
Vice. Consul King Owyang was one of
the most attentive listeners to the testi-
mony, which was to the effect that Low
Kew had been killed by Chun Hing and
Loo Yang.
The accused declared that they knew
nothing about the killing, but that asser-
ton was contradicted by the police men
who chased them across the plaza and
found them hiding in loft at the corner
of Pacific aud Dupont streets.
The jury found that the deceased was a
waiter employed on one of the Pacific Mail
Company's ships aud that he died on April
from Internal bemorrhage caused by
gunshot wound at the hands of Chun Hing
and Loo Yang, and against the two assas-
sins they charged the crime of murder.

try was issued by Pennsylvania in 1923.

that of spectacular minstrel comic
opera. This new production is being
prepared by J. Cheever Goodwin, libret-
ist of Wang" and other comic opera
successes, and it will be ready for re-
hearsals at the end of "TuXedo's" pres
ent season early in May. A number of
