ment.
CHIEF OFFICERS INSTALLED
The Rev. Peter C. Yorke Addresses
the Meeting in Place of the
Vicar.General.

The annual celebration of Father
Mathews day was held last evening in
Metropolitan Hall by the League of the
Cross. 1t was in every respect splendid
commemoration of the birth of the great
Irish apostle of temperance. The hall
was beautifully decorated with gilded
draperies and National streamers and
flags which combined with tricolor bunt-
ing, and the platform was mass of Amer
lean flags, leaving an impression of stars
and stripes amid evergreens. Galleries
and the main floor were crowded from the
stage to the doors. The greatest en- thu
siasm prevailed throughout the exer-
cises.
On the stage were the officers of the
League of the Cross Cadets and members
of the leagues executive committee.
Frank Murasky occupied the chair, with
the Rev. Peter G. Yorke on one side and
Thomas II. Fallon, president of the league,
on the other.
After q brilliant organ solo by Miss
Mari Giorigana President Fallon called the
meeting to order. In his Introductory ad.
dress he made an annual report on the
work of the League of the Cross. Seventy
two mass-meetings had been held during
the year, not including the society's meet
ings and cadet gatherings. The society
has 5000 members and 800 cadets.
Mr.. Fallon announced that the Very

Francisco Gas and Electric Company will
be ready for occupancy. Already the
handsome building has reached the upper
cornice, and in very short time the roof
will be put on, after which the work of
completing and decorating the interior
will be com menced.
The location for the new building has
been happily selected, the site on Post
street, above Powell, being central, while
at the same time removed from the din of
the main business thoroughfares.
The edifce will consist of three floors
and a basement. The basement and first
floor will be faced with white granite. In
the basement will be the stores of the gas
stove department, the first floor being oc-
cupied by the public off1ces.
The second floor will be devoted to
rooms for the directors, stockholders, en-
gineers and draughtsmen. while the upper
floor is destined for the accommodation of
collectors, billmakers and other clerical
employees.
The two upper floors will be faced in
white brick with white terra Gotta col
umns, pilasters and window-casings. The
general aspect of the facade will be Ro-
man, the columns being huted with Doric
capitals. The woodwork of the interior is
to be in oak with bronze trimmings. Mar
| BILE walnscoting TO the height of six feet
| will line all the walls, and the floors will
be of fancy tiling and marble mosaic.
Work on this handsome new building is
being prosecuted as rapidly as is consist
ent with the requisite thoroughness, and
property owners in the vicinity are jubi-
liant over the prospect that the i'm posing
edifce will contribute to heighten the
value of their holdings

Cunningham was installed as treasurer,
in which connection the finances of the
league were considered.
Father Yorke added it was a remarka-
BILE fact that the league was organized and
maintained without tax on its mem bers.
Bishop Montgomery, he said, was very
hopeful character, because he believed
that when Catholic people saw the league
grow and numter thousands they would
contribute Literally toward its support.
But the one sad thing about the society
was that the people of San Francisco
never thought of contributing or assisting
the society IN any material way. In con-
clusion be described the aims and objects
of the league-that it is society which
exacts a pledge from its mem bers till they
have reached the age of 81 years, on the
principle that the boy trained to grow up
in the right way will not leave it in after
years.
Father Yorke declared in eloquent Ian
guage that the league was a socity in
which every man, Protestant and Catho-
lie, could take a deep interest, and this
thought led him into plea for fellowship.
for harmony of all creeds n the cause OF
temperance, charity, doing good. He
said:
"In these days of division. in these days
of controversy, it is good to have one place
where we can look. What good has been
this religious rancor that has distur bed
the City for the past two years? Would
it not be better, instead of setting brother
against brother on account of creed, to
stand together and to work shoulder to
shoulder doing good? We have held more
than seventy meetings, and in not one of
them can it be said that we have said one
word against any member of any other
church."
Whom the eloquent address was con-
cluded and Father Yorke took his seat
the audience applauded heartily for long
time.
The Hon. F. J. Murasky delivered a
eulogy of Father Mathew.
The musical mum bers on the programme
were very enjoyable. w. ]. Hynes sang
Me Dream Again" and Matt Grennan
gave cornet solo. In closing the meet
ing America was sung by the whole
audience.

The bazaar in aid of the Sacred Heart
Church, now being held in Armory Hall
on the corner of Cough and Page streets,

which it was arranged. The steady at
tendance during the week has induced
those in charge to keep the bazaar open

programme was rendered. Tonight sew

Fay is in the lead, with Miss Byrne close

ornamental and useful.
Lunch is served by the young ladies from

that they will serve tamale supper this

The young men have successfully ar

ably absent, and the respected chancellor
of the diocese would address the meeting
instead.
Father Yorke said that owing to the in
disposition of Father PreDdergast, to speak
on this occasion and install the officers
was his pleasant duty. He said that the
objects and aims of the League of the Cross
are such as on which all men agree. It is
established to do good TO the rising gene
ration of this City-to train the boys to be
good temperate citizens and to give to this
town race OF men that would need no
new charter to keep them straight. The
speaker was interrupted by wild applause.
"There is behind the figures" he con-
tinued, referring to President Fallon's re-
port, 'a lesson of work and endeavor, and
a story of toll and devotion at are more
eloquent than the words of any speaker.
There is not week in which gatherings
are not held in which the boys are told of
the evils of intemperance, and instructed
in their duties and urged to keep the
pledge till they reach the age of 81 years. :"
Father Yorke paid tribute to the earnest
and tireless work of Father Organ, the
spiritual director of the society, and to
the executive committee.
You see it in this society, the largest,
the best, the most successful temperance
society in this City or in any city Of the
Union.

spoke of the presidents work and devo-

years the beginning and the end of the
League of the Cross. "I have it from
Bishop Montgomery, and / can say it N.Y.
self, that there would have been no League

Mr.. Fallon was installed, and Father
Yorke remarked that the vice. presidents

who, he said, had ben foremost in every
movement looking to the material inn

The recording secretary, T. r. Curtis,
was spoken OF as untiring in his devotion
to the cause, not alone in his own district.
but in the larger work of the general COM

to have this opportunity to announce to
the public the good work they do.

two years ago a Southern Pacific train
was held up neal Maricopa, by a cou-
pie of cowboys who were riding on
the blind baggage. The robbers were
captured and proved to be Frank Ar.
mer and Oscar Rogers. Armer plead
guilty and was sentenced to twenty
years in the penitentiary. Rogers
stood trial, was convicted and SEN
fenced to be hung. The case was APP
pealed to the supreme court. Last
week the case was decided by the SUI

Dan Hill Dead.

Ex-Sheriff Daniel b. Hill died at
his residence in Mountain Home
last night at II o'clock, afler a long
and painful illness, aged 40 years.
He was born in Arkansas, but we
learn that his parents now reside in
Texas. Dan Hill was a pioneer of
this section and was we'll and favor
ably known by all old residents.
He possessed a generous heart and
his purse was always open for char
liable purposes. In his death the
community has lost good citizen
and his wife and child devoted
husband and father. We regret
that owing to limited time we can
not give more extended account
of the demise of our old friend. His
faithful and noble-hearted wife and
their innocent little daughter have
the sincere sympathy of this entire
community in their sad affection.
Mr. Hill, we are told, carried a
policy in the Equitable Life Insur-
ance Company of New York for the
sum of $4,000.
All Odd Fellows and Rebekahs
are requested to meet at their hall
Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock,
from whence the remains will be
escorted to the Congregational

be held, Rev. Hawkes. officiating.
