Los ANGELES. Aug S.-Bishop
Conaty received word this evening
through a cabIegram that the Right

Church in this city, which was founded
by the Mission fathers. In 1S7l he was
made Vicar General and went TO Rome
for a year. Two years later he became
Coadjutor to Bishop Amat, and, by
strange coincidence, his death occurred on
the thirty-second anniversary of his ele-
walton to that position When the death
Of Bishop Amat occurred in 1873, Mon
signor Mora succeeded him. He presided
over the destinies of the diocese until
1896. when failing health and advanced
age caused him 10 retire. He was sue
ceeded by Bishop George Montgomery,
now Of San Francisco.
Soon after his retirement he left for
Spain to spend the evening Of his life
with other aged members Of the priest
hood, many of whom he had known for
years. During his administration as
Bishop he Witnessed a woncerful growth
throughout the diocese. He celebrated
the first mass in St. Vibianas Cathedral
in this city when that church was build
ing In fact. the building Of it was due
largely to his personal efforts. He was
widely known throughout the West.

THE TREADNELL FIRENEN
Give their First Annual Ball at
the Treadwell Club. The En-
tertainment voted Pleas
ing Success.
ABAND OF BRAVE BOYS

The Trsadwell Club was a blaze of
splendor. Hundreds OF electric lights
cast their brilliant rays over a scene of
beauty and of Joy. The first annual
ball of the Treadwen Pre- Department
was given last evening at the TreadwelI
Club Spared on to their best en-
deavors by the kindly encouragement
of Superintendent Kfnzie, the Tread
we'll Firemen have proven that they
understand the art Of entertaining as
we'll as the more serious business Of
fighting fire.
The best men in the employ OF any
Individual or corporation are those who
interest themselves in the business of
their employer and the protection of
his property; so, the members of the
Treadwen Fire Departmental volpn-
teer organization-may be said to be
the very cream of the employees at
Treadweu, and they are. They are the
men to whom the six o'clock whistle
does not mean a cessation of interest,
for, though they may lay down che
hammer or the pick, they stand ready
should the alarm sound, to step forth
to risk their limbs and even their lives
to defend the establishment that gives
them employment. It is these young
men with this disposition who will be
heard from IN all the different branch
es of the worlds great undertakings, IN
the years to come.
The Treadwell Club had been in tire
hands of the Decorating COMMITTEES fog
days, and right we'll was the work 6oGe,
AS you entered the vestibule, the Rrss
objects that greeted your eyes we're the
letters, ST. F. D." shining out as from
brands OF living FIRE. This effect vas
obtained by placing double rows OF
tiny, red ireandeseent lamps on letters
covered with a soft cloth of white. An
added volume os light in the hall was
secured by placing two large eleetri-
Hers, seven 5O-candlepowerl lights EACH
along the center. The end Of the hall
opposite the entrance was almost CON-
pletely covered by the large Trea6well
company flag, red ground with the
diamond TN IN the center, and U. S..
flag, equally as large, caught together
with two firemen's axes, while over the
whole was scroll of fre-hose tipped
with brass nozzles. Along the balcony
and over the windows was frieze of
red and white bunting, the colors of
the Department. In one corner was a
refreshment booth, covered with q
canopy of red and white. Here cooling
drinks were served, and gaudiTy
painted keg with a polished brass fau-
set, bore. the inscription, "Treadwelh
Fire Water"
The music was furnished by the
Douglas Island Band, under the eff
Gent leadership Of Prof. Fred Wastev-
lain.
Each guest was supplied with meas

March. The boys answered the call
like the brave boys they arctic man
each with lady on his arm. 1t was a
sight long to be remembered, the long
line of bright-uniformed men, Chief
Tompkins, of Treadwell in the lead,
followed by Chief Mcdonald, of Doug
las, and his blue shirted boys, the
guests, and then in contrast the boys
with the bright red shirts, the hosts.
The stately evolutions of the Grand
March were performed with grace and
dignity beftting the suspicious occas
sion. After all the changes of the
March the Quadrille was danced, and

There was very large crowd In at

was served on the stroke of twelve, the
time seemed to fade away as if by
magic.
Tho supper was served liz the reading
room of the Club. The refreshment
used good judgement in
their selection of the repast and the
manner of serving it, The multitude
was fed with quickness and Dispatch |
with very dainty lunch, and showed I
their appreciation by doing the food /
full Justice and none went away unfed. /,
After supper the orchestra played a
couble Of extras, just for luck, and then
the regular program was resumed and
the blissfal dances followed each other
in giddy succession until dawn was
peeping IN at the windows to tell of the
coming of another day and of work to
be accomplished. AS the strains of

escaped srom each happy person. a
sigh not Of WEAKNESS, but of regret
that they could not 60 on forever thus,
