OBJECTS OF CHARITY.

Contributions Can Be Left With the Ex-
pressman a Clay and Montgomery.
The sad and sudden death of William
Kennedy, who lost his life by crowbar
which fell and struck him on the head
while digging well in the Mission few
days ago, has left his widow and three
children destitute.
In their Misfortune the desolate family
has taken temporary quarters with Mrs.
Kennedy's brother at 80 Bemis street.
This brother is old, sickly and poor,
having family of seven children and a
wife to support. Consequently he cannot
afford the widow and orphans home.
The three little girls of the deceased
Mary, Cecilia and Lizzie, aged IL, 8 and
years respectively, have been attending
ST. Anthony's School, but were necessarily
withdrawn for the present. The two faIni-
lies are living together in little house
perched away upon the hillside, with very
little in the wardrobes and very little on
the pantry shelves. Twelve persons to be
fed and clothed, all dependent upon the
exertions of one sick man. If any chari-
tably inclined persons in this City wish
to send money, food or clothing to the
hungry little ones they can do so by leav-
ing the same with ]. w. Sullivan, an ex-
pressman who has stand at the south
west corner of Clay and Montgomery
streets, who will convey the same to the
family.
This is a case of actual want, and those
who may wish to aid a worthy widow and
her three little girl orphans can now do So.

.L0R|A'S NEW MISSION.
The Opening Services in S.
Matthews Episcopal
Edifice.
A Number of Ministers From This
City and Oakland Will Be
in Attendance.

st. Matthew's Episcopal Mission oi
Lorin, upon which ths carpenters and
painters were putting the finishing
touches as late as sundown last evening,
will see the opening services within its
walls this afternoon.
1t is pretty little chapel at the corner
OF Calais street and Alcatraz avenue. The
edifice will not be consecrated for the
reason that it is not fully paid for, but the
conservation services, marking the liqui-
dalton of the debt, will not, it is thought,
be long postponed.
The little congregation has been holding
is services in hall at the corner of Her
mann and Calais streets for several years,
working steadily, however, and looking
forward to the time when it would have
its own church. The lot was purchased
and now the building is completed and
the congregation has held its last service
in the old hall.
This morning holy communion services
will be conducted by the missionary, Rev.
I. L. Randolph, assisted by the lay reader,
K. II. Spencer. The opening services
will consist of the evening prayer and ser.
mon, the latter by Rev. DR.. Mcclure. The
churcn is beautifully decorated with
flowers for the occasion.

GERMAN BENEVOLENCE.
Quarterly Meeting OF tho Society Las
Evening.

Quarterly Meeting OF the Society Last
Evening.
The German General Benevolent Society
held its quarterly meeting Thursday even
ing at Druids' Hall. The committee reports
were not read, having previously been
published.
PRESIDENT b. Broemmel read his report,
making an excellent showing in every
respect as may be seen from the following
facts and figures: Financial improvement
since June 80. $47s1 66. Notwithstanding
the heavy payments for street assess
ments, exceeding $4,000. The causes of
such highly satisfactory results are good
management, and above all a very
liberal patronage of our hospital by the
general public
The relief committee was able to ex-
tend assistance to 255 men, 12S women and
100 families, aggregatins $z042 80. The
num- Der OF mem bers and subscribers on
September 80. 1896 were 1926, showi ngan
increase OF BIZ since January 3.
The two promenade concerts recently
given by the society and The German
bined will net about $1,000, besides serving
well Its original purpose OF uniting and
bringing together the different German
eleme nts of the City.
After the transaction of the usual busi-
ness OF minor i'm portance the following
nominating committee for the election of
officers and trustees for the January elec-
tion was chosen:
d. Keil, II. F. Mass, Theodor Dierks,
E. G. Priber and DR.. Conrad WE'LL. For
Judges of the election, A. Vorrath, E..
Rothe and Hermann Joost were ap-
pointed.
On motion of Charles Bundschu it was

net proceeds of the two garden concerts
recently given at the Mechanics Pavilion
in consideration of their needs and the
prosperous financial condition or the
main society.

thanks of both societies were voted to all
who have contributed toward making the
concerts success, and in particular to
the press for its support.

FOR CHARITY's SAKE.
Musicale and Donation Party In Aid
the Deaconess' Home

Musicale and Donation Party In Aid of
the Deaconess' Home.
One of the novel events of this season
was musicale and donation party
given by Mrs. II. j. Lask, at the residence
of Mrs. E. Ayres, 1920 Post street. Friday
evening. from 8 to 1880 O'CLOCK. The
residence had been beautifully decorated
and arranged for the occasion.
The programme was as follows:
Quartet, California Male Quartet; soprano
solo, Miss H. Lask; mandolin solo, Samuel
Adelstein; soprano solo, Miss ]. Gibson; reci-
tation, Miss Elizabeth Finch Bartlett; tenor

donation was expected either in the shape
of groceri s, an order for groceries or in

the affair was thorough success.

few cackling out of the ark. Mary grew
rapidly from downy chickhood to the
"spring" market age, and only escaped
becoming a tamale by reason of fine ap-
pearance, consequently she was saved to
scratch and cluck through successive pc
riods of maternity.
Gifted with rare intellect as well as do
mestic industry, she wasted no Matching
season in a vain attempt to achieve poster
ity from white doorknob or a porcelain
egg. She knew her lay, and every cheeper
she led out 10 bugs and worms was of her
very own to the ultimate feather.
But it was reserved for the piping time
into prominence. The opportunity hap
pened along her way and she arose 10 it
literally few up to meet it. Last Mon
day the rain caught her out with her
brood in large vacant lot chasing the
nimble but edible grasshopper for the
family dinner. She hurried the chicks in
out OF the wet and found a dry refuge in
an old barn.
In one corner of the building among the
rubbish of ages was the remnants of a
campaign banner which had been worn
by wind and weather and had been laid
away. its work well done.
Whether she saw among the soft folds
of the dusty and dry fabric place for q
warm nest,or, from the appearance OF the
magic word, protection, she concluded
that the location was a safe home for an
infant industry, no man may say. Possi-
bly, the latter idea moved her to settle
down there. and there may be more in
hens philosophy than she is given credit
for.
Albeit Mary has taken up her abode
there and when the day goes out through
the Golden Gate and the Presidio Heights
heave their shadows far eastward the
mother hen and her brood sleep in the
noticed nest. 1t is living picture. a
parable, an alleeory.

Calvarian Society Commemoration tn
Be Held at the Cathedral
This afternoon at 3 O'Clock sery.
ices commemorating All Souls day will
be held at st. Marv's Cathedral. rhe
feast of all souls is an Old ore In the
Catholic church. It was first observed
about the year 104S in France by the Alb
bot Odilon, who ordered that in all his
monasteries prayers should be recited
every year on November for the relief of
the souls in purgatory. About the same
time Pope John XVI ordained that the
day should be observed throughout the
whole church.
In some countries more than in others
the practive OF offering prayer for the
dead during the entire month of Novem-
Der prevails, November being called the
month OF the dead. The origin of the
month OF the dead may be traced back to
very ancient period, long before the
Christian era. Under a different form it
constituted one of the most general and
usual forms of prayer for the deceased
among the Jewish people. Indeed deyo.
tion toward the dead appears TO be one of
their most remarkable rites

Mary was large white egg nesting with

niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able viii he has worked his way up
so as TO sell so far, nearly 100, 900 OF
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since

him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out OF it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in Gil parts OF the world
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200, =
600 more OF his make; that means a
business of $50, ,OOO, 600, il we average
them at 500 each. IL is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
