ever. there were arranged a parade of
the striking garment workers, and de-
monstration at Union Square of Knights
of Labor, with which the garment work
ers are affiliated. The New York letter

MISSION TO THE CHINESE,
Rev. Father Edmund May Under
take the Task in This
City.
Should His Superiors Consent He Will
Begin Work in the Chinese
Quarter.

Rev. Father Edmund, who is resting in
this City from his missionary labors in
China, has been invited by Archbishop
Riordan to undertake the work OF estab-
fishing Catholic mission for the Chinese
in this City.
Father Edmund has been twelve years
In China. He belongs to the Franciscan
order and was eighteen years priest in
Germany before coming to the United
States. He labored for eight years in Ohio
and Missouri and then went to China.
His long residence among the Chinese
has made him very much of Chinaman,
as he adopts the customs of the natives
when travelling through the country, even
to the queue.
Therefore, the Archbishop, in search of
suitable person to undertake the difficult
task OF building up a mission here, sought
the Sc. vices of Father Edmund, and should
his superiors give their permission he will
begin work at once. Otherwise he will re-
turn TO China.
While much preferring to return to the
work i'll China" said Father Edmund YES
terday, 81 would willingly undertake the
building up of mission for the Chinese in
this City, if ordered to do so by my su-
periors. The matter has been under con-
sderatlon for some time, but nothing
definite has been settled upon. From what
| can learn the Catholic Chinese in San
Francisco are not very numerous. [ have
heard that there are about fifty. Attempts
have previously been made to found a
Chinese mission in connection with the
church in this City, but the results were
not satisfactory.
ITO my mind the only feasible plan is to
have two priests carry on the work, one to
be native of China and the other a white
man. They must live with and adopt the
habits and manners of the Chinese. This
is the way we carry on our missionary
work in China and the plan has been quite
successful-.much more so than it other
wise would have been. To accomplish
anything with this very strange people it
is necessary to make them understand that
you are earnestly and conscientiously
working for their advancement; that you
really love them.
I'm China they look upon all foreigners
with aversion. 1t is therefore not to be
presumed that the Chinese in this country
are overburdened with love for the white
people. Their fears and appreh ensions
must be dlssipated. Until this is done
very little can be accomplished.
GA mission in Chinatown would involve
hard labor. The Chinese here are not the
best or brightest of their people. They are
mostly coolies and many of them of low
order OF intelligence. Consequently it will
be hard task to spread the principles of
Christianity among them. Still much
good can be done and l am ready to begin
the work the moment that my Superiors
order me to do SO. My long residence in
the celestial kingdom has made me al
most Chinaman, and if sent back to
China 1t Will probably be never to return
to America again.

of Cooper and battle royal ensued be-

were on equal terms. 1t was a splendid

gave 1t to the latter. Campbell beat Wells
for the third place. The time was l 30.

SAN JOSE, CAL, Nov. s.-The first
National circuit race meeting ever held in
California drew an immense audience to
the Garden City Cyclers' track this after.
noon. The presence IN this city for the
past ten days OF the celebrated Eastern
racing men had drawn the attention of
everybody to the cyclists, and every one
here who could get away was in attendance
at the track to-day. Large numbers of
San Francisco wheelmen came down bv
train this morning, the roads being too
muddy for riding.
There have been fully fifty riders train
ing here during the past week, and the
men are all in splendid condition. The
San Jose track is three laps to the mile,
well banked, and being of cement the re-
cent rains had no more effect on it than TO
wash it off, and the training was kept up
almost continuously. Ball Murphy,
Wells, Cooper and Kiser have been riding
at their very best. Terrill is not here,
having been detained at San Francisco
owing to illness IN his family.
OF the class A men Freeman, Byrne,
Mcfarland, Edwards, Downing and Wing
appeared to be riding the best in training.
The day was all that could be desired
for racing-not breath of wind stirring
and the thermometer being up to about 20
degrees. The audience seemed to be ia
miliar with all the men, having seen Bald,
