RECEIPTS OF PRODUCE.
CROCKER HOME.
Board of Managers and Board of Trus-
tees Elected for the Ensuing
Year.


The annual elect ion of officers of the
Crocker Old Peoples Home was held yes
terday afternoon at the institution, corner
of Pine and Page streets, in this City.
About twenty-five of the fifty ladies
whose mem bership fees help materially in
maintaining the home were present at the
election, though no important business
other than the selection of officers was to
be transacted. Almost without exception
the former incumbents were returned to
office.
The board of lazy managers, consisting
of twenty-seven persons, was elected as
follows:
Mrs. John Barton, Mrs. William H. Brown,
Mrs. George Crocker, Mrs. B. B. Cutter, Mrs. c.
Easton, Mrs. P. Evarts, Mrs. n. H. Foster Mrs.
ID. Z. Friele, Mrs. Isaac Hecht Mrs. c. T. Lager
crantz, Mrs. j.: L: Martel, Mrs. Calvin Nc
Mrs. Charles Nelson, Mrs. F. G. Norman, Mrs.
NJ. R. Roberts, Mrs A. w. Scott, Mrs. w. ].
Somers. Mrs. George H. Tyson, Mrs: George B.
Warren, Mrs. 5. Wenban, Mrs. A. Wetterman,
Mrs. Edward c. Wright, Mrs. II. w. Yeamans.
Immediately afterward they met and
elected their own officers, as follows:
Honorary president, Mrs. Charles Nelson;
president, Mrs. A. NJ. Easton; first vice-presi-
dent, Mrs. D. L. Friele; second vice-president,
Mrs. Isaac Hecht; third vice president Mrs. ].
L. Martel; treasurer, Mrs. William III. Dick;
secretary Mrs. Edward C. Wright; correspond
ing secretary, Mrs. G. I. Deane.
The board OF trustees of the home and
their officers elected at the meeting are in
dicated below: w. E. Brown, William H.
Crocker (president), C.. V. s. Gibbs (sec-
ond vice-president) Charles e. Green,
Charles F. Hanlon (first vice-president),
David Hewes, Joseph Knowland, E. B.
Mastick, S. B. Peterson, A. w. Scott,
Henry 7. Scott; treasurer board of trus-
tees, Crocker- Woolworth Bank; secretary,
Mrs. E. c. Wright.
The home is in an exceptionally good
condition. There are 30 old men and 81
old women residents, making a total of
136 as pared with 12S at the same time
in 1895, and varying in age from SO, the
minimum for admission, to 81.
In the pas year 5000 was received as a
gift from Mrs. Phoebe Hearst, $500 from
the estate of Isaac Hecht. 500 from Mr..
Weinstock of Sacramento, and finally
$1,000, or $500 month, from the Mary A.
Crocker trust.
But the more money, say the women,
the more possibilities for good work in the
home and the reception and care of addi-
tional old people, for there are accommo-
dations for 140.
