Journal.
The Reno Journal says that the peo-
pie OF this State should keep a sharp
lookout for Hanna's agents who, the
Journal alleges, will try to ALLEVIATE from
the silver champions the votes which
gave them such overwhelming majori-
ties in 1896. This is the Journals
sneaking way of OF announcing that the
Silver party OF Nevada has much to fear
from the Republican party next Fall.
Nobody knows better than our friend
Kelley that the majorities given to the
Silver party leaders in 1896 will never
be accorded to them again in this State.
The Journal %insinuates that the Repub-
licans in the East are ready to use
money in Nevada in behalf OF their
party. This may be so, but if the Re-
publicans spend half the money in this
State this year the bosses of the Silver
party spent for votes the year they or
ganized their machine, Editor Kelley
will wish he had spent his time in o her
ways than trying to get a place on the
Silver party State ticket. The Silver
party is not SO warm any more; there
are others. Silver partisans may have
given the Silver champions An over
whelming majority in 1895, when the

HOLY CROSS FAIR.
Preparations for Raising Funds for
 the New Parish Church.

A large and very enthusiastic meeting of the ladies of Holy Cross parish was held last evening in the hall adjoining the church on Eddy street. to make arrange ments for the fair which is to be held at Native Sons Hall next October. It will be for the purpose of raising funds for the new church which Is now In course of construction.
 The old building, which Is at present used for services, has the distinction of being oftener chriStened and remodeled than any church in the United States or possibly the world. It was first used by the parishioners of St. Patricks, and To- cated where the Palace Hotel now stands Afterward 1t was put on rollers, named St. Johns and erected on Eddy street, near Octavia Lastly 1t was moved to the present location in Holy Cross parish, where 1t was again rechristened and called after the parish it served.
 Rev. John F. McGinty, the popular and energetic pastor, who has guided the des- tinies of the parish from its inception, presided last evening. He told those as- menced owing to the exemplary and largely increased congregation, the old building being quite inadequate to accom- modate the worshipers. He also congrat- ulated the ladies on their efforts to help along the new church, which, with it's massive pillars and stately columns, ment to the Almighty God as we'll as one that the parishioners as well as the citi- zens of San Francisco should feel justly proud of The reverend gentleman stated that when the new edifce is finished. which he expected would be some time next spring. the old church would be used finally rest and be a landmark for the pioneer church of the secular clergy as the Mission Dolores Is of the regular or ders.
 Mayor Phelan will open the fair, which will commence October 1S and will con tinue for two weeks The various booths will be of the most artistic designs and John W. McDonald of the Young Mems Society said the ladies of each booth
The San Francisco call., 1898-08-20

would have "an evening at home" and would give a highly interesting pro gramme of vocal and instrumental music; that an excellent orchestra would appear nightly. The League of the Cross Cadets will also assist.
 The ladies of the different booths re- ported the receipt of innumerable articles of value. from pincushions to houses and lots, also antique relics, for all of which chances will be sold. Mrs. SpottiSwood has a dagger which was found in Clontarf in 179S, being on the spot where the great battle was fought in the eleventh century with the Danes, in which the famous Irish King Brian Boru was slain. It is a coun- terpart of instruments used in those days, and was exhibited at the Archaeological Society in Dublin for many years.
 Mrs. Began has a piece of the stone from the high altar of the grand old ruin of Holy Cross Abbey, the historic seat of learning of the Franciscans in Ireland. There will also be interesting souvenirs of the naval and land battles of Manila, in which many of the sons of those taking part in the fair were engaged. Mrs. Dunn and Mrs. Hannigen will have booths, and Mrs. Cassasa will preside over the re- treatments. They will serve @ fine lunch each day at popular prices, during which time no tickets for chances or soliciting will be allowed.
 The names of other ladies who will have charge of booths will be published later.

THE WEATHER PROPHETS. McAdie's Promotion Causes Changes

The Weather Bureau service here is ex- neriencing quite a shaking up. Alexander McAdie. who has been for three years the local forecast official at San Francisco, assisting Forecast Official W. H. Ham, mon, leaves to-day to take the chief posi- ton at New Orleans.
 The official rank of the weather service is not generally understood as we'll as the distinctions of shoulder-straps. A forecast official is a sort of division com mander. Thus, MT. Hammon bosses all the weather in California, Nevada, Utah and Arizona. A local forecast official is not supposed to know enough to foretell the weather outside of his town and inn mediate vicinity, regarding which he gives supplementary tips, as does the fel- low at Los Angeles.
