ODD FELLOWS RELIEF. The Charitable Work That It Has Done During the Past Six
 Months

The general relief committee of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of San Francisco held it's semi-annual meeting yesterday afternoon, when the following named were elected officers for the en- suing term:
 l.. L. Remey ,Franco-Americaine Lodge president; James A. Wilson of Fidelity Lodge, vice-president; J. F. Nichols of Parker Lodge, secretary (re-elected), and Louis Kragen of Golden Gate Lodge treasurer (re-elected).
 The reports that were presented and adopted showed that during the past six months the committee attended to 275 cases and extended relief at a cost of s990S IS, being $13O1 9S in excess of the re- ceipts during the same period, the deficit having been made up from the reserve fund.
 After the meeting about sixty of the membership went to a restaurant, where there was banquet and a great deal of good fellowship.
 During the. afternoon A. J. Doyle, the retiring president, in recognition of the faithful manner in which he discharged his duties, was, by Treasurer Kragen, on behalf of the committee, presented with beautiful gold watch.

John Tracy Wounded by an Unknown
 Man and Left Unconscious.

John Tracy, teamster employed at Warren & Malley's camp near Baden, had a lacerated wound in his scalp dressed at the Receiving Hospital yester- day morning. He was so weak from the loss of blood that he fainted after the operation was over.
 Tracy's family lives at 124 Eighth street and he said he came into the city Satur- day evening to draw s20. He gave his wife SIS 50, and about 10 o'clock at night he took car to return to the camp. He took the one-horse car at Twenty-fourth street and Potrero avenue, which stops about three miles from the camp. He had walked about five minutes after leaving the car when some one came up behind him and knocked him down by violent blow on the head with some instrument.
 Robbery was apparently not the assail- ants object, as he did not search Tracy's pockets, but disappeared after striking the blow.
 The blow made Tracy unconscious, and when he recovered it was too late to catch a car to return to his home He made his way to the nearest house and got shelter for the night and took the car yesterday morning.

BURGLARS IN 4
 IEWELRY- STORE Daring Job Committed d on Post Street, Near
 Grant Avenue.
Rudolph Earth Loses a Quan-

Entrance Effected by Forcing Oper the Iron Gate and Front Door
 With a "Jinnay."

The belief of ''the upper office" that there are no experienced burglars in the city received a rude shock yesterday morning when it was reported that the jewelry store of Rudolph Earth, success sor to Barrett & Sherwood. Al Post street, had been broken into early yes terday morning and a quantity of watches and silverware had been stolen.
 One-half of the store is occupied by Leon Bloch, perfumer, and he was the first one to discover the burglary. He went to the store about 10 o'clock yes terday morning and saw at once that something was wrong. The iron gate in front of the entrance was burst open and the front door showed unmistak- able signs of having been tempered with
 He immediately blew his police whis- tie and not only attracted the atten- tion of Policeman McGee, but num- Der of people who ran to the store not knowing what was the cause of all the excitement On entering the store it was seen that the burglars had relieved Earth of a portion of his stock.
 The drawers in the counter had been forced open and a selection of the goods made The show case nearest the door had also been emptied of its contents.
 Word was at once telephoned to police headquarters and Detectives Bee and Dinan were detailed by Captain Bohen to make an investigation. They found that the iron door had been forced open by sheer strength and the front door had been made to feel the effect of jimmy the marks of which were apparent.
 Special Officer Linville has the sur veillance of that neighborhood, and he thinks that the burglary must have been committed between and 10 o'clock in the morning, as everything was all right at the former hour. Earth says the burglars must have been fools, as they took away a lot of stuff that

Annie McTaviSh Appre- hended While on Her
 Way Home.
A Policeman Who Was Not in Uniform Made the
 Arrest.
The Woman Kept in Jail Until Re- leased on Her Own Recog-
 nizance.

While returning from church last evening Annie McTavish, an apparent ly respectable middle-aged woman, was accosted by Policeman McEntee, who was in citizens clothes, at Fifth and Mission streets. McEntee, she claims, asked her where she lived and when she informed him he suggested that they take a walk. She refused to go with him, whereupon, she alleges, Me Entee threw back his coat, exposing his star and placed her under arrest. He then sent for the patrol wagon and the unfortunate woman was taken to the City Prison, where she was charged with indecent behavior.
 When placed in a cell the woman wept bitterly and begged the desk ser geant to release her.
 1T am not a woman of the half world" she tearfully exclaimed. My God! how could a policeman make such a mistakei'
 To a reporter Mrs. McTavish stated that she and a friend had visited St. Patrick's Church, on Mission street, and they were returning home when the of ficious police officer accosted them.
