AN ADMIRAL WHO Is sBAs1oK.
Naval ficers Not Always Exempt From
the Discomforts of the Ocean

Naval fficers Not Always Exempt From
the Discomforts of the Ocean.
1.-THE belief that naval men and sailors
generally are never seasick," said an
officer on one of the big warships anchored
off Stapleton, sis mistake. There are
men high rank in our navy to-day. one of
whom by the way. is an admiral, who are
invariably seasick on their first cruise
after shore duty. One such officer is al
ways laid up for two or three days on his
cruise, and he is too i'll to attend to his
duties
Every one in the navy knows this weak
ness of the officer to whom | refer, and l
saw only the other day that after long
period of shore duty he was expecting to
go to sea again to serve short time before
he was retired. He has tried various pre-
ventives of seasickness, and experience
has taught him that they do him no good.
He gave them up long ago, and in recent
years he has begun his cruises with the
certainty that for two or three days he
would be deathly sick, and in no case has
he been disappointed. l have seen old
sailors so seasick that they couldn't work,
and have come to the conclusion that
there are many men who never can con-
ouer their weakness in this direction, no
matter how much time they pass aboard
ship. New York Sun.

CHURCH AND CHICKENS.
How an Episcopalian Mission at Ocean
View Was Started.

How an Episcopalian Mission at Ocean
View Was Started.
st. Luke's Episcopal Church on Van
Ness avenue has adopted the Episcopalian
mission at Ocean View as its own. For
some time past lay reader from the
Divinity School at San Mateo held
services at Ocean View in a little hall,
which was jocuIarly alluded to as the
chicken house, as 1t is stated that the
building was once used for that purpose.
In spite of its not being IN fine location,
however, the mission has grown, and now
NUN bers over twenty communicates and
has forty children in its Sunday-school.
Services are conducted at present by
Rev. William G. Shaw, curate of st.
Luke's, in the little hall which was once
used as a chicken house. Lay readers
from San Mateo also assist. This home
of the mission Will soon become thing of
the past, however, as fine lot in the
center of Ocean View has been donated.
1t is intended soon to erect 500 church,
and $500 has already been collected
toward the building fund. Rev. Mr..
Moreland, rector of st. Luke's, stated yes
terday that the building would probably
be commenced in two or three months.

The committee appointed at the last
Grand Council, held at Sacram ento to re-
wise the constitution will have many
amendments for the union to take action
on, and it is probable that the session will
last three full days, with evening meet
ings. The union has paid for deaths of
its members and their wives, since it's or
ganiZation in 1880, a total of $153, 1872. At
the present session an effort will be made
to increase the salary OF the grand secre-
tary from $3.50 to $500. A beautiful badge,
EN- blematic OF the order and costing $75,
will be presented to John Mattos, the re-
firing grand president.
The principal proposed amendment to
the constitution will be the creating of
three policies of $1400. $500 and $3.50, re-
spectively. The assessments shall hence
forth be monthly and fixed at 50, 81 and
30 cents, respectively. The object is to
give everybody chance to join the
