mon at church here, last Sunday
morning. was 1.-THE Greatness of God. !"

the first issue of San Francisco mag
azine since the dire earthquake on the
morning Of April 10, in name, 1.-THE
Trestle Board" which he advises all
to read, or better STILL subscribe to
now for a year, If he has q desire to
materially assist in the revival of q
most worthy production in journalism,
and If he desires to gain q more COM
prehensive idea of the vastness and
horror of that dire event which crush
ed q city, from the pen Of those who
lost their all in the wreck and were on
the scene of action from start to finish
and who now propose to rise again,
stronger and better than ever. Such

Masonic Fraternity in past years with
q clean, interesting magazine to read.

church here, last Saturday evening,
and committed offenses unworthy OF
any manhood, whom we hope will be
apprehended and used according to
their deeds. In or around q church is
no fit place for revel.
