LORD :RUSSELL'S SISTER.
A n oted Woman Who Has Done Much
ts-' I'm the World. .'
The San Francisco Chronicle says:

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
Baron Russell, lord chief justice of
England, will not visit San Francisco
during his American sojourn. He has a
sister here, Sister Mary Baptist, the
Mother Superior Of the Order of Sisters
of Mercy in this state, and the founder
and head of st. Mary's hospital.
Some ten years ago Baron Russell, then
Sir Chares Russell, visited San Francisco,
incognito expressly to see his sister. He
was accompanied by Lord Coleridge.
her distinguished brother, who is her
Junior by five years. When she heard that
he was again to be In America she wrote
to his, asking If he intended coming to
San Francisco. She received tele-
graphic reply that he could be absent
from England but.a month, and a trans
continental trip would be. e.impossible.
The Russell family is a very remark
able one. There were twelve children of
the same mother, six by a first and six by
a. second marriage. Seven OF the twelve
entered religious institutions. OF the two
BOYS and four girls in the Russell family
one daughter died young, another, who
was a Sister Of Mercy, died fifteen years
a,gp. and the two living daughters Sister
Mary Baptist Of this city, who was born
Catherine Russell, being the elder.
Charles was the only one who entered
secular life the other brother being a
Jesuit: A half-sister was, in a convent
sixty-eight years.
Mother Russell is sixty-eight years Of
age and has been in California since she
was twenty-sfx. She founded the order
here and many large institutions have
sprung up under her able management,
among them St. Mary's Hospital, Our
Lady OF Mercy's Academy the Old
Ladies Home, the Mater Mtsericordia
Sewing School for poor girls, the Magda-
len Asylum, st. Peters Convent, Our
Lady Of zMercy''s Academy at .Berkley and
other schools. Mother Russell is loved
for her Kindness and esteemed for the
same quality Of mental gifts which have
made her broth ther. famous. s,s3

KINDLY REMEMBERED.
The Rejected Pastor of st. Anthony
Parish Meets With Surprise.

The Rejected Pastor of st. Anthony
Parish Meets With a Surprise.
st. Anthony of Padua hall was crowded
last Sunday evening by members OF that
parish All were bent on one purpose, an
earnest welcome to their beloved pastor,
Rev. James O'Reilly, who has but recently
returned from visit to foreign lands after
an absence of about four months. The hall
bore neat appearance, while the stage was
dotted here and there with potted plants,
ferns and beautiful flowers, all combining
to make the occasion both pleasant and at
tractive.
A brief but excellent program-nusic
and song-co,nposed of seven numbers was
we'll rendered; among those taking part in
the same being Miss Kate Dwyer, Mrs.
Lacy and George Beck. A song of vel
come by a large number of young ladies OF
the parish was one Of the features. ]. H.
Smith acted as master of ceremonies. 1t
was the signal for great applause when
Father O'Relly, escorted by Messrs. S. j..
Mccarthy and T. J. Ryan, appeared in the
hall shortly after 8 o'clock. Taking his
seat on the platform, the program was pro
ceeded with as above outlined. Towards
the close of the exercises surprise-gen-
uiue as we'll as deserved was wrought
when John Farrell quietly stepped forward
upon the stage and in few well chosen
words presented, as a substantial token
from the parish, a well filled purse OF
money tn the Rev. Father.
In a manner that portrayed the deepest
earnestness, Father O'Re.lly feellngly re-
sponded, saying in conclusion: Standing
before this magnificent audience tonight
it is but stating the single truth when say
to you that / was never mere surprised in
NV life than I am at this time. In the
heat Of a bitter political struggle, when the
public mind is carried away into other
channels, it never entered my mind that
any one would for a moment stop to think
of me. You will pardon me if have but
few words to say. To my mind an occa-
sion like this demands that it should be so.
During my absence my eyes have looked
upon many foreign lands-the beauties OF
Irish scenes and scenery are before me, yet
nevertheless the old home in st. A1til-
ony, was ever uppermost in my mind.
Whatever changes may sweep across my
life in future time this night will always be
borne in kindly memory by me. From my
heart 7 return to all my sincere regards
and good W.shes.
fsAmer:ca'' was then sung by q choir OF
Young ladies, the audience joining. ~
When. the regular program was finished
each individual in the large audience was
given an opportunity to shake hands with
fhe reSnecfpfl 8nastor of St Anthony OF Pa
dua church and thus closed one Of the most
pleasant events Of East Side Catholics.

Mr.. Kellond tells a good story on
himself and a colored boy whom he
employed when his headquarters were
at New Orleans.
Mr.. Kellond had hired Sam, a black
boy, to run errands at salary of 50
per week. But Sans clothes were so
dilapidated that he was an eyesore, so
the railroad man bought him a suit OF
clothes. the condition being that only
so cents was to be deducted from Sam s
wages every week until the suit was
paid for.
The purchase was made on Saturday,
and on Monday Sam did not show up
at the Office Mr.. Holland went down
to his home to investigate. He found
Sans mother washing and asked her
where her son was.

OARSMEN FAVOR THE SARATOGA COURSE.
1T LOOKS AS IF THE LAKE WOULD BE CHOSEN
FOR THE COMING COLLEGE REGATTA.

FOR THE COMING COLLEGE REGATTA
The feeling In favor Of the Saratoga course for
the college regatta is steadily growing. and many
oarsmen who had expressed preference In the
early stages Of the contest have taken sides now In
favor Of the lake and against the river course
at Poughkeepse. The arguments which these new
champions Of Saratoga bring are the same as have
been expressed In The Tribune. and Their force can
be appreciated only by those people who know the
two places and what could be done at either place
for the accommodation OF the crews and those who
come to the contest.
In published interview a prominent member or
the Metropolitan Rowing Club says: II think Sara
toga the best and fairest course In the country
and the object Of the College and National Regatta
associations ought to be to make 1t what Henley ~
to England" ASIDE from the fact that the accom-
moda lions at Saratoga are vastly superior 10 those
at Poughkeepsie, the oarsmen are agreed that the
chances for fair and no advantage are
greater at Saratoga than at the Hudson River
town.
The Citizens Committee at Saratoga n making
arrangements to accommodate a large crowd and
they feel sure that II the race takes place on the
lake this year those people who come to see II Will
be favorably impressed with the course and &C
commodations that Saratoga Lake will become the
permanent course for the national regatta.
