THE ASSOCIATIONS DEBT.
Directors of the Christian Young Mems
Building Trying to Wipe
IT Out.

The directors of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association are just now busily en-
gagged in an attempt to raise 100000. This
amount is necessary to cancel the in
'debtedness on the association building,
ID it has been decided to make an attempt
to raise the entire amount before the end
of the year.
AS a matter of fact nearly $15O, 600 is
needed to absolutely cancel the debt due,
but the directors think that if 100000 be
raised in larger sums the remainder will
be easily collected in smaller amounts
from the general public.
The canvass has been thoroughly organ
lied and is being pushed forward with the
utmost energy. A circular letter has been
printed setting forth the needs of the in
ness men and capitalists. Following the
persons so addressed and soliciting assist
ance for the organization.
The committee having the matter in
charge will meet every Tuesday evening
and arrange for the conducting of the
work. An organization will also be formed
among the members of the association to
assist the committee.
1t has been the decision of the directors
all along that the building shall not be
dedicated until it is absolutely free from
debt. 1t is hoped to hold these dedicatory
ceremonies on January l, 1896, and for
that reason the committees are working
without regard to time or trouble At a
recent meeting of the directors the mem
bers together subscribed $21, 900 as a nucleus
for the fund.

IN THE COLORED CHURCH.
A Talk Upon "When Will the Out
RACES on the Negro
Cease

The Rev. G. E. Jackson pastor of the
First African Methodist Episcopal Zion
Church, spoke last night to his congrega-
ton on when Will the Outrages Against
the Negroes Cease?" He referred to the
recent outrages in the State Of Illinois,
and declared that the Government did not
protect all of its citizens as it should.
He reviewed the history of slavery in the
United States, paid some attention to poll
Jicians of all parties, declaring that they
were only schemers who used the negroes
TO help them along in their schemes. he
then alluded to what the negro race had
done since it enjoyed freedom after FASH
ion, and declared that despite all obstacles
and prejudice it had in the United States
accumulated millions.
He said that he was opposed to rioting
or mobs, but he could not see how the col
ored people could secure protection from
outrages in southland until they rose in
their might and resisted the oppression to
which they were subjected. The trouble,
he said, was that there had been too much
praying and not enough acting.
George w. Dennis Jr. said that the spirit
of discomfort that was making itself mani
fest all over would be successful only
through education.
He closed by saying that when the col
ored men learned to attain that respect due
them they would be able to form unit and
demand that protection and respect to
which they were entitled.

RAPHAEL'S HEAVY Loss,
A Bursted Water-Pipe on the
Upper Floor Floods the
Big House.
Goods In Two Departments Ruined
Before the Accident Was
Discovered.

The bursting of water pipe in the upper
floor of the Raphael Clothing house build
ing, at 1915 Kearny street, last night, dam
aged the stock of goods in the store to the
extent of $4,000.
About z o'clock the Waterman looking
into the Kearny-street apartment saw a
torrent of water coming down from the
ceiling and the floor was covered to the
depth of about two inches.
He hurriedly rang for the fire patrol and
assembled to the floor above. There he
found the same deplorable state of affairs.
The water was coming from the third
story, bursting through that ceiling and
falling on the piles of goods in the large
apartment.
Upon the arrival of the patrol the leak
was found in pipe in the Cosmos House,
on the top floor.
They quickly covered the damaged goods
with oilcloths, cut off the leak and sue
ceeded after a couple of hours work in
getting the place free from water.
The ceilings and walls of the first and
second floors are ruined and much of the
stock damaged.
Julius w. Raphael stated that the goods
were insured, but doubts if the insurance
covers water damage.
This disastrous accident will necessitate
the closing of the big establishment until
the full loss is ascertained.

He Found His Overcoat.

The train stopped in the great dark sta.
ton of New England city, and gentle
man who had been doing during the last
hour of his journey got up in haste, seized
his bag and hurried out of the car. In a
moment he came rushing back; he had
forgotten his overcoat. But no overcoat
was there, for his son had come along
from the smoking-car, recognized it and
carried it out.
'sWhere's my coat?" exclaimed the
owner excitedly, diving under the seat and
knocking off his hat as he rose. ''This
was my seat! Pm sure l left it here"
But the persons sitting near had just
entered the car and took no interest in
him. nobody answered. Out he hurried
and again missed his son, who had gone
into the station to inquire about tickets
He was sure his coat must be in that car
There was nothing for it but to go back
and back he went.
Meanwhile a tall, slender lady dressed in
black, with long Grape veil over her face,
entered the seat he had vacated, and sank

over her face. In rushed the excited gen

BRAVE GIRL CAMPERS.
They Celebrate Their Return tc
San Francisco With a
Social.

A very enjoyable social event took place
GA Saturday night at 532 Clay street, which
was participated in by about fifty young
ladies and gentlemen. 1t was given under
the auspices of society of young ladies
who spend two weeks each year camping
out, and who are banded together under
the name of Camp Gaiety No. l." The
occasion was the celebration of the return
from camping trip to Niles canyon of
twenty members of the society.
The arrangements were carried out under
the supervision of Miss Mamie Tannian,
president; Annie McElroy and Anita
Levin, vice-presidents, and they could not
have been better. They consisted of a
banquet prepared by the fair ladies them
selves.
1t was thoroughly appreciated, and be-
fore leaving the festal board some of the
members gave interesting anecdotes of
their adventures during their two weeks
trip. They took especial pride in the fact
that they had no masculinity with the
party and that they had not been afraid of
snakes, squirrels, gophers or any other
ravenous beasts of the wild woods and
plains. Another fact which they dwelt
upon was the sensation they caused among
the unsophlsticated grangers of the neigh
in boomers
The party was also entertained by the
renowned traveller, j. E. Owen, who spoke
OF wild and fierce encounters which he had
had IN darkest Africa and in the jungles of
India with savage beasts. After the ban
quet dancing was INDUCED in until after
midnight. The following were among
those present:

stated further that instead of examining
pupils. as is done, if two-thirds of what is
impaired were dlgested there would be
better education than there is now.
He said that there was a great deal of
truth in the remark of Henry Ward
Beecher that the fellow who was crammed
with knowledge, but could not get it out
when wanted, was not educated; he was
simply stuffed. He then said that in this
world there were no priests in the strict
sense of the word, for there can be no
priest unless there be an altar and sacri-
flee and that at this time neither exists
He concluded his address with an appeal
for unity in the movement in which the
A. P. A. is engaged and an appeal for
brotherly love so as to win over those who
are in error. When the speaker resumed
his seat he was heartily applauded.
After the singing of America" the Rev.
C. A. Rabing of the Evangelic church de-
livered short address in which he urged
the importance of brotherly love, of which
the previous speaker had spoken saying
that flies are never caught with vinegar.
He said that if the association finds that
anv persons are not in the right path the
society should induce them to attend the
meetings and be instructed. He dwelt
upon the troubles that have recently taken
place in Illinois and said that it was time
that those foreigners that created them
should be taught that the rights of those
who are born under the protection of the
stars and stripes, be they colored or white,
are to be respected; that they must be
given to understand what Old Glory
teaches. He urged every man, woman
and child to organize for the purpose of
carrying out the principle of the American
Protective Association.
After benediction by the Rev. Mr.. Deitz
the meeting adjourned.
