TO PLAY IN HIS NAME A Benefit for the King's Daugh- ters' Home for In- curables. PLANS FOR A NEW BUILDING. The Charity Company Will Give "7-20-8" at the Columbia in Aid of the Home. The Columbia Theater, the scene of so i president of a college in Tennessee. Before permitting the visitor to leave with the impression that this 16-year-old youth may have seen three score summers, he assures him that he has exceeded his three score years and ten by twelve years, and calls upon the matron to corroborate his statement. There is a bright mademoiselle who has lost her sight, but not her exuber- ant spirits ana a slight, quiet old lady who likes to tell about her schoolmaster's part- ing speech: "Five years you have spent with me and I have never had to find fault with you." The home is supported by life member- ship of the inmates, wno oy paying the sum of $500 secure the guarantee of a home for life and a respectable burial, and by the monthly rates of $25. For two years the State paid $8 per month for the support of indigent inmates, but that help was withdrawn when the Legislature be- gan its course of retrenchment. The home 13 out of debt and has a snug balance to its account in bank. It has reached this desirable condition after making many improvements in tne old building, as well as furnishing it through- many successful benefits, will soon repro- duce ."7-20-8" in aid of the King's Daughters' Home for Incurables. The charity company, which made such a suc- cess of tne play at Oakland recently, will give a repetition of their performance and the Metropolitan Orchestra will donate its Eervices. The only King's Daughters' Home for Incurables in the United States is that which occupies the oid buiidinp at 217 Francisco street, once the City and County Hospital, later the Scandinavian Home. and, prior to parsing into the hands of the King's Daughters, the Old People's Home. Only those whose lot it is to battle with disease the remainder of their lives are eligible to refuge within its walls. The King's Daughters' Home and St. Joseph's Hospital are the only institutions devoted to this purpose in the City. San Francisco has 8000 daughters of royalty. Daughters of the King of Kings they are, and they have taken his name and wear a silver cross on which is in- scribed the legend which is the motto of their lives, "Inhis name." Some of these daughters are in the dewy dawn of life. Sunie there are who have children of their own who are also King's Dauehters. But whether their brows are covered by brown <>r silver hair their ruling purpose is the | same — to relieve distress wherever found. The organization is not an old one. Probably two liecades would measure its I life. It was borne in upon some helpful j spirit that many smell bodies would make a better working force than one laree, un- wieldy one and the practical unfolding of that plan has been the formation of well nigh innumerable circles of ten members each, who are pledged to labor ior the alleviation of human ills. They choose such names as "Fidelity," '"Consolation" and "Hope," whose sound is an inspiration, and work bravely, gui- | etly, patiently for the accomplishment of I their laudable purpose. They rise above \ all considerations of creed or sect and la- bor in the spirit of truest altruism. Two of these King's Daughters were talking one day less than four years ago of the rule that banishes incurables from hos- pitals after three months' treatment and of the pity of it. "Why can we not have o home for incurables?'' asked one. "We can," was the confident answer. It was but a woman's resolution, growing out of a great need. Yet it has borne speedy fruitin an admirably managed institution that provides home comforts and atmos- phere for sixty-tive men and women. When the Crocker Home was removed to its present location, in 1892, the old building was donated to tne King's Daughters' Home, which was then but a name. The officers incorporated and opened the home, in which 200 invalids Jiave been cared for within three years. Man}* of them were aged, and have since passed on to the mystic bourne where, vernaps, youth and its joys may have been renewed. There is that about the home which jus- tifies its name. The visitor forgets he is in an "institution." There is to be found there the intangible something that sug- gests family life. There is not ranch evi- dence of wearing pain. Usually the pa- tients' condition is that of serene waiting for nature to issue her final decree in their case. Yet there is nothing funereal about the atmosphere. Cheerfulness is the keynote of the genuine harmony of life ai the home. There are no wards with their dreary monotony of suffering. Every inmate has his or her own room, which is his or her castle. The treasured accumulations of years make these rooms a bright spot of reminiscence, to most instances, and the individuality of the occupant is permitted free range in the adornment with per- sonal effects. There is a cozy reception- room and the dining-room has less of dreariness than the average boarding- house refectory. The unanimity with which the patients assure the visitors of their happiness as members of the big family is striking. "We are in a home, not a prison," said a neat happy-faced old lady, who, with her hus- band, occupies a room where color and cheer and sunlight have an abiding place. •'I never was happier in my life," de- clared k bed-ridden invalid, "with 'ashen hair, gnarled by warping rheumatism, but a face that reflected a peace that many a Btorm-tossed soui would envy. The personnel of the home is interesting in the highest degree. C!ad in a handsome dressing-gown and leaning back luxurious- lyin an easy chair was a handsome old man, who seemed entirely harmonious with his surroundings. He is the last leaf on a fine old family tree, and here his brother Masons have placed him until such time as death shall detach him. "I am 16,' averred a small but sturdy old gentleman, who walks with the vigor of youth and greeted lady visitors with old-time gallantry. He was an educator of the old school. Forty-five years was his term of service in training the young. At one time be was out. Therefore the King's Daughters' Home does not come before the public in the attitude of a pauper. It is amply able to support itself, but it is ambitious to re- place its outcrown quarters by a hand- some home, and to that end desires to enlist the generosity of San Franciscans and of King's Daughters far and near. The old building is overcrowded by its sixty-five inmates. If every application for entrance were granted the big family would be more than doubled. Forty ap- plications have been refused within a few months. Assistance to this institution means aid to one of the most worthy charities of the City. The constitution of the order re- quires that one cnarity patient be admitted for every ten who are* able to pay. The ratio stands at present one for every six. The new buildiue; with the lot contem- plated in the officers' plans will cost $50,C00. The nucleus of this sum is yet small. The appeal to public generosity the ladies make in their presentation of the play at the Coiumbia is one that do- serves hberal response. The secretary is sending out also the fol- lowing circular in the hope that the sum of contributions thus secured will be a substantial addition to the building fund: You are cordially invited to become an hon- orary member of the Kings Daughters' Hos- pital and Home. This institution is a most worthy charity, caring for poor, aged sick people. Beinp non-sectarian, all are welcome. Fee, discretionary with subscriber. We must have a new Home and we ask you all to kindly help us. Mrs. Richard Brown, Recording Secretary. 217 Francisco street, San l'Tancisco, Cal. The officers of the home are: Mrs. J. G. Clark, president; Mrs. E. If. Cofer, vice- president; Mrs. Richard Brown, recording secretary; Mrs. J. B. Lowe, financial secre- tary; iirs. Fred Diserens, treasurer.

[Sketched by a "Call " artist.] CHINESE THEATER RACKET Angry See Yups Bombard Quon Ying Lock Players With Bad Eggs. A Small Panic Created at a First Performance by Factional Jealousy. Although Chinatown still retains her oriental garb and exhibits a plentiful array of pigtails, she is nevertheless be- ginning to give evidence of some salient features of the Western civilization. At the Chinese Theater Saturday night, during the initial performance of the Quon Ying Lock company of players, which has recently come from New Or- leans, there were a few moments when oriental pandemonium reigned and anti- quated American eergs sailed through the air in the direction of the stage. The Quon Ying Lock troupe is made up of players from the Sam Yup Company. The theater was crowded to the doora and by 8 o'clock there was hardly a square inch of standing room left. The audience, it seems, was largely sprinkled with the bel- ligerent See Yups and these are accused of creating the disturbance which took place shortly after the play began. The tomtoms and kettle drums and shrill sounding fiddles and flutes began their usual overture. Two performers dressed in scarlet and tinware walked in before the audience. There was some- thing in their stride, however, tnat wcrked painfully on an excitable group of See Ynps seated near the stage. The latter arose and without any explanation or apolqey began hurling the eggs at the two gaudily bedecked players with the same abandon that has been observed in civil- ized audiences on similar occasions. Policemen J. B. Hightower, O. B. Mer- rick anu J. Clifford were in the theater al- most as soon as the disturbance be^an and succeeded in thoroughly quieting the furor. There were no arrests made. Po- liceman Clifford stated that had there been a panic in the theater the loss of life would have been very great, as the regulation limiting the audience to a number sulfi- cient to till the seats was entirely disre- garded and that every aisle waa packed. The building has but one exit. Last evening the See Yup men showed an mclinatic * to resume hostilities. A large crowd gathered in front of the theater, blockading the sidewalk and ef- fectually preventing any one from entering the theater. Word was sent to the Califor- nia-street station, and a posse captured twenty-two of the disturbers. The prison- ers were charged with obstructing the sidewalk. They were released on bail. The cinnamon gardens of Ceylon are said to have an area of 13,000 acres. WHAT SOCIETY IS DOING A Fashionable Church Wedding Announced for This Evening. MISS CATHERWOOD ENTERTAINS The Jewett Tea— Second Concordia Informal— Entertainments An« nounced— Personals. There is to be a fashionable wedding at St. Luke's, the pretty little church on Van Ness avenue, this evening, the con- tracting parties being Miss Isabelle Grant, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Grant, and Edward Pond, Bon of ex-Mayor and Mra. Pond. Dr. Brewer, an old and esteemed friend of tne brides family, assisted by Rev. Mr. Morelaud, pastor of St. Luke'a, will per- form the ceremony. Miss Fanny Grant, sister of the bride, will officiate as maid of honor. Albion Whitney will be best man, and Philip Thornton, Alfred Clement, Henry Wilson, Charles Farquharson. Charles Grant and Samuel F. Pond will be the ushers. Areception for members of the bridal party, relatives and a limited number of intimate iriends will follow at the resi- dence of the bride's parents, 2017 Lyon street. To Miss Jennie Catherwood belongs the honor of introducing on tnis coast that de- lightful function known as an English high tea. The second of a series of these Sunday teas was given by Miss Catherwood yester- day at her elegant and commodious resi- dence on Gough street. The English high tea differs materially from the usual tea, inasmuch as the num- ber of guests is limited and there is no re- ceiving party. The tea is brewed by the fair hand of the gracious hostess, and all servants are dismissed. Music, a most delightful accessory, was one of the fea- tures at Miss Catherwood's tea, and about fifteen friends enjoyed that charming young hostess' hospitality. Mrs. J. H. Jewett will give a tea to-mor- row afternoon at her residence on Bush street complimentary to Miss Cheesman, whose engagement to Lieutenant Schoe- maker of the navy was recently an- nounced. The first of a series of dinners to be given by Mrs. Emanuel Heller at her resi- dence, 824 Post street, will take place on Wednesday evening. The second of the series of informal en- tertainments arranged by the Concordia Club will take place on Thursday evening at the club's handsome quarters on Van Ness avenue. Much secrecy is maintained regarding the nature of the entertainment, and not a little curiosity is manifested by the invited lady guests, whose invitations bear the mysterious injunction, "Be pro* vided with an ample supply of nickels." Mr. and Mrs. L. Schwabacher are once again occupying their handsome residence on Clay street that has just been com- pletely renovated. Among the many im- provements is the addition of an elegant ballroom. Mrs. Will Tevis has recently been enter- taining at her home in Bakerstield Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hicks and Miss Emily Hager. Mrs. S. B. King and the Misses Laura and May King of Portlauci are guests at *he Berkshire. The ladies have many 'riends in this City who are exerting them- selves to the utmost to make their visit a pleasant and enjoyable one. Sanford Goldstein has returned from his Eastern visit. The young ladies of Sausalito gave an evening dress leap-year ball last Wednes- day evening in the Pacific Yacht Club house, tho first of its kind this season. The clubhouse was artistically decorated with bunting and Chinese lanterns, and the paintings in the rooms were twined with srnilax. The yachlß near the boat- house showed their colors. The event was strictly invitational. About 150 couples participated. The ladies who had charge of the affair were: President, Mrs. Charles Phelps; floor manager.

The grand march was under way at 9 o'clock, and was under the leadership of Frank J. Williams and Miss May Kelley. ft was made up of pretty though intricate figures, after which dancing was in order and con- tinued until midnight. The special feature of the evening was the dancing of the cotillon by the ladies and gentlemen present, whose grace in execution won encomiums from the spec- tators present. The success of the affair is due to the efforts of the following members: F. J. Williams, R. Carlson, J. Griffen, J. A. Mclsaacs, W. Taber, P. C. Beck, H. Han- sen, E. Lange, J. J. Small and Georue Heinz. A very successful leap-year surprise party was tendered Mr. and Mrs. M. F.

JANUARY'S BUIITING RECORD. Hahnemann College Building — A Local Firm's Operations in Los Angeles. Although the real estate market is quiet, the past week furnished a number of sales at fair prices, and negotiations are under way for a number of deals, some of which are of considerable importance. The period of financial distrust has passed, and real estate has come again to be considered a stable commodity. This is, in a measure, owing to the fact that a large percentage of the involved owners of realty have been sold out, and the greatest obstacle to re- covery in times of depression thereby re- moved. It is just such people who swell the list of tlie forced auction sales in dull times. Mortgagors, who considered it a great loss and misfortune to have property forced upon them fifteen months ago. ex- press themselves differently now, since the market has turned and values are once more slowly on the ascent. There is not a person of middle age in any city in the Union who has not seen long periods of depression in which real estate could scarcely be given away, and have also seen as many periods in "which there did not seem to be naif enough real estate to supply the rush of buyers, who, in the latter instance, frequently paid the most extravagantly inflated "prices for property, allowing but a small- margin of profit possible. At such a time as this, when there is not the least inflation, when property is valued at what it is actually worth, an excellent opportunity is offered for investment, and people who have ready money on .hand should get out of the regular rut of invest- ing on a rapidly advancing market, and put their spare means into pronerty which has not yet become high priced, but is cer- tain to be with the inevitable return of good times. STBEET IMPROVEMENT. As street improvement is destined to play an important part in the future of real estate transactions in San Francisco, the following comnuinication from Ernest McCullough, consulting engineer for the Merchants' Association, will be of interest: The chief things to be desired In a pood pavement are .leanliness and durability. Clean- liness above all else. Nothing does so" well as asphalt or bituminous rock in this respect, ns such pavements are perfectly sanitary. Stone blocks are so noisy that brick is sup- planting them inmany ciiies. As a rule that material is used most exten- sively that is obtained mosteasily a.nd In quan- tityin the near vicinity. So in the central States we find a frreat deal of brick used, for large beds of clay are close at hand. In the southern and northern central States, wood is largely used, as timber is pltn.iful. ,In the middle eastern States stone is largely used, as quarries are close at hand. Cities which have no timber, clay or stone near by, are largely paved with asphalt. California cities are paved extensively with bituminous rock Kx- pediency has so largely governed in past years, it is difficult to change people's minds as regards the comparative value of pavements. Itis becoming customary for cities to investi- gate the subject of paving materials, and the consequence will be the survival of the fittest. Asphalt and bituminous rock have a pre- pondernncy of good points in their favor, and brick is a close follower. Until all cities have testing laboratories in charge of competent men pavements will not be all they should. The Inspector, as he is understood to-day, is a ward of the politician and not a useful factor. Good testing of ma- terial and guarantee of all work done for a term of years will secure good work. After the work is accepted it must be maintained and there is where San Francisco is weak. The streets are not maintained properly. Aconcrete base is necessary under all pave- ments. If Market street is paved I would recommend that eight inches of concrete be laiil as a base as far as Second street and six inches the rest of the way out. Up to Battery street granite blocks could be laid if the people preferred them, although asphalt or bi- tuminous rock will stand all right. The rest of the street could be paved with asphalt or bi- tuminouß rock. Itis needless to say the work should be well and caretully done and under a five years' guarantee. A real estate man in New York City figured that ifEighthavenue were paved with asphalt from Fifty-ninth street to One Hundred and Tenth street the 224 building lots on the ave- nue would be built upon at an average ex- penditure per house on each lot of $15 000 This would make the total productive ex- penditure $3,360,000, which, assessed at half its value and taxed af 2 per cent, would yield the city a revenue of $30,000. The city could borrow $130,000, the money necessary to pave that part of Eirhth avenue with asphalt, at 3 percent, so that by accomplish- ing this work it would be a gainer to the ex- tent of $20,000 per year. It is in order for some real estate man to do some figuring of the same kind on the Market-street propo- sition. During 1894 the various pavements used in Eastern cities were in about the following proportion: By pavements is in all cases meant what is termed as a rule permanent pavements. All the above cities have other pavements, such as macadam and cobble, which are always tem- porary and are replaced whenever funds are available. The above ligures are for the period ending about July, 1894. During the same time the number of miles of permanently paved streets in various cities is given as follows: As to comparative quantities of the various materials which are used in various cities in the United States some information may be gleaned from the reports of city engineers for the last two years. For example St. Paul, from the result of experience, places asphalt tirst and brick second In favor, after experience with both. Milwaukee favors brick, asphalt and wood in the order named. Indianapolis during 1894 laid 3.99 miles of asphalt, 4 miles of brick and half a mile of wood. At the end of 1894 Erie, i'a., had 17% miles of paved streets, about halt of them paved with asphalt and half paved with brick and stone. Louis- ville, Ky.,in 1893 had about half a mile of stone pavement and nearly five miles of brick Syracuse, N. V.,has about 44,000 square yards of asphalt. Newark, N. J., laid during 1805 about 48,000 square yards of stone and 3000 yards of as- phalt. Altoona, Pa., has over seven miles of asphalt and not quite a mile of stone, about half a mile of brick and a little cobble pavement. Philadelphia has over 873 miles of paved streets, 502 of which are granite and asphalt, the asphalt predom- inating. A concerted plan was drawn up to pave Certain streets with stone and alternate streets with asphalt. The people on many streets petitioned for asphalt. The Health Of- ficer of Philadelphia is said to have stated that the death rate from consumption in that city was 31.93 per 10,000 in 1880 and in 1894 it was only 22.04 per 10,000. He attributes this to" the increased area of sanitary pavement laid during that period, which gave cleaner streets. Bineham- ton, N. V., in1894, had 58,000 yards of wood 84,000 yards of asphalt and 3500 yards of brick. Kansas City. Mo., during 1894 laid 2V miles of asphalt and 1%. miles of brick. At the end of the year there was under contract 2 4 miles of asphalt. New York City at the end of 1894 had 300 miles of stone blocks, 03 miles of asphalt and 22 miles of macadam. Omaha has 10 miles of brick, 21 of asphalt, 23 of stone and 23 of wood. Denver during 1894 laid t>5,000 yards of stone blocks andCSQO.oOO yards ot asphalt. Philadelphia during 1894 put down 10 miles of stone, 6 miles of asphalt ana 4 miles of brick. Abroad it is said the following number of miles of asphalt Is laid in certain cities: Lon- don 24, Paris •JKi, and Berlin 83. In all three of these cities a great quantity of wooden pave- ment is laid. Itis,however, not increasing in favor on account of the high cost of mainte- nance. Stat* sties show that asphalt is less slit> pery than granite or basalt blocks. In the early part of1894 inquiries were sent out to 250 cities asking about tho projected work iv street paving. The cities were all over 10.000 population. Replies were received from seventy-live and it was found that they con- templated laying as a whole about 288,000 yards of asphalt and 524,000 yards of brick. Most of the work contemplated has been done. During 1896 it is stated that New York City will expend about $1,000,000 for Rsphalt pave- ments and about $250,000 for stone. Asphalt is favored for all streets where the people are not wedded to th« idea of stone blocks, and iv fact this is the principal reason why so many streets are paved with stone blocks nowadays, the people wanting them. They have nothing but durability to commend them, and few peo- ple look further than durability. They are noisy, dirty and costly. It costs one-third less to clean asphalt than stone. The majority of pavements inEastern cities are laid under guarantees of from five to ten years. REVIEW OF THE RECORDS.

The work of bituminizing Van Ness ave- nue from Union street to Bay, seven con- secutive blocks, is progressing rapidly. Several five-room cottages are going up on Hoffman avenue in the Heyman tract. A committee of real estate men have been appointed to appraise the value of the land to be condemned in opening Lyon street from Pacific avenue to the bay. C. C. Bemis, the real estate broker, has just finished a thousand feet of bituminous sidewalk on Twenty-seventh street be- tween Guerrero and Dolores, on Army be- tween Church and Dolores, on Church between Army and Twenty-sixth and on Church between Twenty-fifth and Jersey. During 1895 Easton, Eldridge & Co. built ninety-five houses in Los Angeles, but five of which are left on their hands. A few days ago they let contracts for ten more houses, one of which is for the con- struction of a business block to cost $18,000. The homeopaths are goinor to erect build- ings for college and hospital purposes at the southwest corner of Sacramento and Maple streets. Fifty-two building contracts were re- corded in January aggregating $561,906, as against a record of fiftyfor the same period a year ago amounting" to $250,377. Shainwald, Buckbee & Co. will hold an auction sale on February 13 of miscella- neous and probate properties.

His right leg and ankle were broken. As he lay helpless his neck and iace were burned by steam escaping from a neighboring wastepipe. FIVE POINTS TO FIVE Drawn Game of Football Be- tween the Emmets and San Franciscos. FIEST MATCH OF THE SEASON. Revival of the Invigorating Sport on the Recreation Grounds in Golden Gate Park. The invieorating and scientific sport of Gaelic football is not to be permitted to fail into innocuous desuetude. At the opening of the season three or four games were played and then there was a sudden cessation. The inconvenience of playing on the recreation grounds at Golden Gate Park without proper goal posts or lines and the annoyance caused by the spectators per- sistently crowding among the players, were the principal reasons for stopping the games. Infuture all these drawbacks will be avoided, and the sport willsoon be as popular as ever. Yesterday afternoon a game was played on the recreation grounds between the old-time rivals,, the Emmets and San Francisco*. It was not so distinguished for briiliant play as many previous games, but that was accounted for by the lack of practice. A. fair-sized crowd was present and seemed to thoroughly enjoy the sport. At 3 o'clock the teams lined up as fol« lows : Knimets. Position. San Franciscos. I-ij-nch Ooal A hern Kyr.n.. Fullback Welsh Kelly ...Fullback Hannigua (>'l)6wd ....... .... ...

The play lasted for an hour and a half. The referee forgot all about halftime. and at the close both teams were almost ex- hausted. The San Franciscos assumed the offensive almost from the start and kept the spnere dodging in the vicinityof the Emmets' goal. Five times within as many minutes Steve Welsh and Tom Daly kicked for goal, but Lynch was on the alert and stopped the ball in time. The sixth try by Welsh was more successful, and the first goal was scored. The Kmmets, encouraged by Palmer, started in to even up matters, and some pretty play was the result. The San Franciscos played a stubborn defense, and it was not till near the close that Creede passed to Palmer, who shot the sphere through goal. The game closed with the score <o 5. Palmer, Creede, O'Do^d and Sugrue did splendid work for the Emmets and Mclnerny, Welsh, Daly and Hannigan distinguished themselves for the San tfran- ciscos. DURRANT HOPEFUL. He Still Keeps Up His Spirits and Looks Happy. Theodore Durrant is still healthy and hopeful. He spent considerable of his time yesterday afternoon conversing with, members of the Salvation Array and others who visit the jail to minister to the spirit- ual needs of the inmates. He seemed to be in the best of spirits and laughed and chatted as though his doom were a mattir of years instead of days. Durrant still feels aggrieved at the treat- ment he is receiving at the hands of the newspapers. He says he is in good health now, and has in no wise given up hope. He is busy writing most of the time. He refuses to talk about the nature of his work.

TO PLAY IN HIS NAMEA Benefit for the King's Daugh-

ters' Home for In-curables.

PLANS FOR A NEW BUILDING.

The Charity Company Will Give"7-20-8" at the Columbia in

Aid of the Home.

The Columbia Theater, the scene of so i

president of a college inTennessee. Beforepermitting the visitor to leave with theimpression that this 16-year-old youthmay have seen three score summers, heassures him that he has exceeded his threescore years and ten by twelve years, andcalls upon the matron to corroborate hisstatement. There isa bright mademoisellewho has lost her sight, but not her exuber-ant spirits ana a slight, quiet old lady wholikes to tell about her schoolmaster's part-ing speech: "Five years you have spent

withme and Ihave never had to find faultwithyou."

The home is supported by lifemember-ship of the inmates, wno oy paying thesum of $500 secure the guarantee of ahome for lifeand a respectable burial, andby the monthly rates of $25. For twoyears the State paid $8 per month for thesupport of indigent inmates, but that helpwas withdrawn when the Legislature be-gan its course of retrenchment.

The home 13 out of debt and has a snugbalance to its account in bank. Ithasreached this desirable condition aftermaking many improvements in tne oldbuilding, as well as furnishing itthrough-

many successful benefits, will soon repro-duce ."7-20-8" in aid of the King'sDaughters' Home for Incurables. Thecharity company, which made such a suc-cess of tne play at Oakland recently, willgive a repetition of their performance andthe Metropolitan Orchestra will donate itsEervices.

The only King's Daughters' Home forIncurables in the United States is thatwhich occupies the oid buiidinp at 217Francisco street, once the City and CountyHospital, later the Scandinavian Home.and, prior to parsing into the hands of theKing's Daughters, the Old People's Home.Only those whose lot it is to battle withdisease the remainder of their lives areeligible to refuge within its walls. TheKing's Daughters' Home and St. Joseph'sHospital are the only institutions devotedto this purpose in the City.

San Francisco has 8000 daughters ofroyalty. Daughters of the Kingof Kingsthey are, and they have taken his nameand wear a silver cross on which is in-scribed the legend which is the motto oftheir lives, "Inhis name." Some of thesedaughters are in the dewy dawn of life.Sunie there are who have children of theirown who are also King's Dauehters. Butwhether their brows are covered by brown<>r silver hair their ruling purpose is the |same

—to relieve distress wherever found.

The organization is not an old one.Probably two liecades would measure its Ilife. Itwas borne in upon some helpful jspirit that many smell bodies would makea better working force than one laree, un-wieldy one and the practical unfolding ofthat plan has been the formation of wellnigh innumerable circles of ten memberseach, who are pledged to labor ior thealleviation of human ills.

They choose such names as "Fidelity,"'"Consolation" and "Hope," whose soundis an inspiration, and work bravely, gui- |etly, patiently for the accomplishment ofItheir laudable purpose. They rise above \all considerations of creed or sect and la-bor in the spirit of truest altruism.

Two of these King's Daughters weretalking one day less than four years ago ofthe rule that banishes incurables from hos-pitals after three months' treatment andof the pity of it. "Why can we not haveo home for incurables?'' asked one. "Wecan," was the confident answer. It wasbut a woman's resolution, growing out ofa great need. Yet it has borne speedyfruitin an admirably managed institutionthat provides home comforts and atmos-phere for sixty-tive men and women.

When the Crocker Home was removedto its present location, in 1892, the oldbuilding was donated to tne King'sDaughters' Home, which was then but aname. The officers incorporated andopened the home, in which 200 invalidsJiave been cared for within three years.Man}*of them were aged, and have sincepassed on to the mystic bourne where,vernaps, youth and its joys may havebeen renewed.

There is that about the home which jus-tifies its name. The visitor forgets he isin an "institution." There is to be foundthere the intangible something that sug-gests family life. There is not ranch evi-dence of wearing pain. Usually the pa-tients' condition is that of serene waitingfor nature to issue her final decree intheir case. Yet there is nothing funerealabout the atmosphere. Cheerfulness isthe keynote of the genuine harmony oflifeai the home. There are no wards withtheir dreary monotony of suffering.

Every inmate has his or her ownroom, which is his or her castle.The treasured accumulations of yearsmake these rooms a bright spot ofreminiscence, to most instances, and theindividuality of the occupant is permittedfree range in the adornment with per-sonal effects. There is a cozy reception-room and the dining-room has less ofdreariness than the average boarding-house refectory.

The unanimity with which the patientsassure the visitors of their happiness asmembers of the bigfamily is striking. "Weare in a home, not a prison," said a neathappy-faced old lady, who, with her hus-band, occupies a room where color andcheer and sunlight have an abiding place.•'I never was happier in my life," de-clared k bed-ridden invalid, "with 'ashenhair, gnarled by warping rheumatism, buta face that reflected a peace that many aBtorm-tossed soui would envy.

The personnel of the home is interestingin the highest degree. C!ad in a handsomedressing-gown and leaning back luxurious-lyin an easy chair was a handsome oldman, who seemed entirely harmoniouswith his surroundings. He is the last leafon a fine old family tree, and here hisbrother Masons have placed him until suchtime as death shall detach him."Iam 16,' averred a small but sturdy

old gentleman, who walks with the vigorof youth and greeted lady visitors withold-time gallantry.

He was an educator of the old school.Forty-five years was his term of service intraining the young. Atone time be was

out. Therefore the King's Daughters'Home does not come before the public inthe attitude of a pauper. Itis amply ableto support itself, but it is ambitious to re-place its outcrown quarters by a hand-some home, and to that end desires toenlist the generosity of San Franciscansand of King's Daughters far and near.

The old building is overcrowded by itssixty-five inmates. If every applicationfor entrance were granted the big familywould be more than doubled. Forty ap-plications have been refused withina fewmonths.

Assistance to this institution means aidto one of the most worthy charities of theCity. The constitution of the order re-quires that one cnarity patient be admittedfor every ten who are* able to pay. Theratio stands at present one for every six.

The new buildiue; with the lot contem-plated in the officers' plans will cost$50,C00. The nucleus of this sum is yetsmall. The appeal to public generositythe ladies make in their presentation ofthe play at the Coiumbia is one that do-serves hberal response.

The secretary is sending out also the fol-lowing circular in the hope that the sumof contributions thus secured will be asubstantial addition to the building fund:

You are cordially invited to become an hon-orary member of the Kings Daughters' Hos-pitaland Home.

This institution is a most worthy charity,caring for poor, aged sick people.

Beinp non-sectarian, all are welcome. Fee,discretionary with subscriber. We must havea new Home and we ask you all to kindlyhelp us. Mrs. Richard Brown,

Recording Secretary.217 Francisco street, San l'Tancisco, Cal.The officers of the home are: Mrs. J. G.

Clark, president; Mrs. E. If.Cofer, vice-president; Mrs. Richard Brown, recordingsecretary; Mrs. J. B. Lowe, financial secre-tary; iirs. Fred Diserens, treasurer.

CHINESE THEATER RACKETAngry See Yups Bombard Quon

Ying Lock Players WithBad Eggs.

A Small Panic Created at a FirstPerformance by Factional

Jealousy.

Although Chinatown still retains heroriental garb and exhibits a plentifularray of pigtails, she is nevertheless be-ginning to give evidence of some salientfeatures of the Western civilization.

Atthe Chinese Theater Saturday night,during the initial performance of theQuon Ying Lock company of players,which has recently come from New Or-leans, there were a few moments whenoriental pandemonium reigned and anti-quated American eergs sailed through theair in the direction of the stage.

The Quon YingLock troupe ismade upof players from the Sam Yup Company.The theater was crowded to the doora andby 8 o'clock there was hardly a square inchof standing room left. The audience, itseems, was largely sprinkled with the bel-ligerent See Yups and these are accusedof creating the disturbance which tookplace shortly after the play began.

The tomtoms and kettle drums andshrill sounding fiddles and flutes begantheir usual overture. Two performersdressed in scarlet and tinware walked inbefore the audience. There was some-thing in their stride, however, tnat wcrkedpainfully on an excitable group of SeeYnps seated near the stage. The latterarose and without any explanation orapolqey began hurling the eggs at the twogaudily bedecked players with the sameabandon that has been observed in civil-ized audiences on similar occasions.

Policemen J. B. Hightower, O. B.Mer-rick anu J. Clifford were in the theater al-most as soon as the disturbance be^an andsucceeded in thoroughly quieting thefuror. There were no arrests made. Po-liceman Clifford stated that had there beena panic in the theater the loss of lifewouldhave been very great, as the regulationlimitingthe audience to a number sulfi-cient to till the seats was entirely disre-garded and that every aisle waa packed.The building has but one exit.

Last evening the See Yup men showedan mclinatic * to resume hostilities. Alarge crowd gathered in front of thetheater, blockading the sidewalk and ef-fectually preventing any one from enteringthe theater. Word was sent to the Califor-nia-street station, and a posse capturedtwenty-two of the disturbers. The prison-ers were charged with obstructing thesidewalk. They were released on bail.

REALTY MARKET REVIEWLetter From the Consulting En-

gineer^of the Merchants'Association.

JANUARY'S BUIITING RECORD.

Hahnemann College Building—

A LocalFirm's Operations in Los

Angeles.

Although the real estate market is quiet,the past week furnished a number of salesat fair prices, and negotiations are underway for a number of deals, some of which

are of considerable importance. Theperiod of financial distrust has passed, andreal estate has come again to be considereda stable commodity. This is, ina measure,owing to the fact that a large percentageof the involved owners of realty have beensold out, and the greatest obstacle to re-covery in times of depression thereby re-moved. Itis just such people who swellthe list of tlie forced auction sales in dulltimes. Mortgagors, who considered it agreat loss and misfortune to have propertyforced upon them fifteen months ago. ex-press themselves differently now, since themarket has turned and values are oncemore slowly on the ascent.

There is not a person of middle age inany city in the Union who has not seenlong periods of depression in which realestate could scarcely be given away, andhave also seen as many periods in"whichthere did not seem to be naif enough realestate to supply the rush of buyers, who,in the latter instance, frequently paid themost extravagantly inflated "prices forproperty, allowing but a small- margin ofprofitpossible.

Atsuch a time as this, when there is notthe least inflation, when property is valuedat what it is actually worth, an excellentopportunity is offered for investment, andpeople who have ready money on .handshould get out of the regular rut ofinvest-ingon a rapidly advancing market, andput their spare means into pronerty whichhas not yet become high priced, but is cer-tain to be with the inevitable return ofgood times.

STBEET IMPROVEMENT.As street improvement is destined to

play an important part in the future ofreal estate transactions in San Francisco,the following comnuinication from ErnestMcCullough, consulting engineer for theMerchants' Association, willbe of interest:

The chief things to be desired In a poodpavement are .leanliness and durability. Clean-liness above all else. Nothing does so" well asasphalt or bituminous rock in this respect,ns such pavements are perfectly sanitary.Stone blocks are so noisy that brick is sup-planting them inmany ciiies.

As a rule that material is used most exten-sively that is obtained mosteasily a.nd Inquan-tityin the near vicinity. So in the centralStates we find a frreat deal of brick used, forlarge beds of clay are close at hand. In thesouthern and northern central States, wood islargely used, as timber is pltn.iful. ,In themiddle eastern States stone is largely used, asquarries are close at hand. Cities which haveno timber, clay or stone near by, are largelypaved with asphalt. California cities arepaved extensively withbituminous rock Kx-pediency has so largely governed inpast years,it is difficult to change people's minds asregards the comparative value of pavements.Itis becoming customary for cities to investi-gate the subject of paving materials, and theconsequence willbe the survival of the fittest.Asphalt and bituminous rock have a pre-pondernncy of good points in their favor, andbrick is a close follower.

Untilall cities have testing laboratories incharge of competent men pavements will notbe all they should. The Inspector, as he isunderstood to-day, isa ward of the politicianand not a useful factor. Good testing of ma-terial and guarantee of all work done for aterm of years will secure good work. Afterthe work is accepted it must be maintainedand there is where San Francisco is weak. Thestreets are not maintained properly.

Aconcrete base is necessary under allpave-ments. If Market street is paved Iwouldrecommend that eight inches of concrete belaiil as a base as far as Second street and sixinches the rest of the way out. Up to Batterystreet granite blocks could be laid ifthe peoplepreferred them, although asphalt or bi-tuminous rock willstand all right. The rest ofthe street could be paved with asphalt or bi-tuminouß rock. Itis needless to say the workshould be well and caretully done and under afive years' guarantee.

A real estate man inNew York City figuredthat ifEighthavenue were paved with asphaltfrom Fifty-ninth street to One Hundred andTenth street the 224 building lots on the ave-nue would be built upon at an average ex-penditure per house on each lot of $15 000This would make the total productive ex-penditure $3,360,000, which, assessed athalf its value and taxed af 2 per cent, wouldyield the city a revenue of $30,000. The citycould borrow $130,000, the money necessaryto pave that part of Eirhth avenue withasphalt, at 3 percent, so that by accomplish-ing this work it would be a gainer to the ex-tent of $20,000 per year. It is in order forsome real estate man to do some figuring ofthe same kind on the Market-street propo-sition.

During1894 the various pavements used inEastern cities were in about the followingproportion:

By pavements is in all cases meant what istermed as a rule permanent pavements. Allthe above cities have other pavements, such asmacadam and cobble, which are always tem-porary and are replaced whenever funds areavailable. The above ligures are for the periodending about July, 1894. During the sametime the number of miles of permanentlypaved streets in various cities is given asfollows:

As to comparative quantities of the variousmaterials which are used invarious cities inthe United States some information may begleaned from the reports of city engineers forthe last two years. For example St. Paul, fromthe result of experience, places asphalt tirstand brick second In favor, after experiencewithboth. Milwaukee favors brick, asphaltand wood in the order named. Indianapolisduring 1894 laid3.99 miles of asphalt, 4 milesof brick and half a mile of wood. At the endof 1894 Erie, i'a., had 17% miles of pavedstreets, about halt of them paved with asphaltand half paved with brick and stone. Louis-ville, Ky.,in 1893 had about half a mile ofstone pavement and nearly fivemiles of brickSyracuse, N.V.,has about 44,000 square yardsof asphalt.

Newark, N.J., laid during1805 about 48,000square yards of stone and 3000 yards of as-phalt. Altoona, Pa., has over seven milesof asphalt and not quite a mile ofstone, about half a mile of brick anda little cobble pavement. Philadelphia hasover 873 miles of paved streets, 502 of whichare granite and asphalt, the asphalt predom-inating. Aconcerted plan was drawn up topave Certain streets with stone and alternatestreets with asphalt. The people on manystreets petitioned forasphalt. The Health Of-ficer of Philadelphia is said to have statedthat the death rate from consumption inthat city was 31.93 per 10,000 in 1880and in 1894 it was only 22.04 per10,000. He attributes this to"the increasedarea of sanitary pavement laid during thatperiod, which gave cleaner streets. Bineham-ton, N. V.,in1894, had 58,000 yards of wood84,000 yards of asphalt and 3500 yards ofbrick. Kansas City. Mo.,during 1894 laid2Vmiles of asphalt and 1%. miles of brick. At theend of the year there was under contract 2 4miles ofasphalt. New York City at the end of1894 had 300 miles of stone blocks, 03 miles ofasphalt and 22 miles of macadam. Omaha has10 miles of brick, 21 of asphalt, 23 of stoneand 23 of wood. Denver during 1894 laidt>5,000 yards of stone blocks andCSQO.oOO yards

ot asphalt. Philadelphia during 1894 putdown 10 miles of stone, 6 miles of asphalt ana4 miles of brick.

Abroad it is said the following number ofmiles ofasphalt Is laid in certain cities: Lon-don 24, Paris •JKi, and Berlin 83. In all threeof these cities a great quantity of wooden pave-ment islaid. Itis,however, not increasing infavor on account of the high cost of mainte-nance. Stat* sties show that asphalt is less slit>pery than granite orbasalt blocks.Inthe early part of1894 inquiries were sent

out to 250 cities asking about tho projectedwork ivstreet paving. The cities were all over10.000 population. Replies were received fromseventy-live and it was found that they con-templated laying as a whole about 288,000yards of asphalt and 524,000 yards of brick.Most of the work contemplated has been done.

During 1896 itis stated that New York Citywillexpend about $1,000,000 for Rsphalt pave-ments and about $250,000 for stone. Asphaltis favored for all streets where the people arenot wedded to th« idea of stone blocks, and ivfact this is the principal reason why so manystreets are paved with stone blocks nowadays,the people wanting them. They have nothingbut durability to commend them, and few peo-ple look further than durability. They arenoisy, dirty and costly. Itcosts one-third lessto clean asphalt than stone.

The majority of pavements inEastern citiesare laid under guarantees of from five to tenyears.

FIVE POINTS TO FIVEDrawn Game of Football Be-

tween the Emmets andSan Franciscos.

FIEST MATCH OF THE SEASON.

Revival of the Invigorating Sport onthe Recreation Grounds in

Golden Gate Park.

The invieorating and scientific sport ofGaelic football is not to be permitted tofail into innocuous desuetude. At theopening of the season three or four gameswere played and then there was a suddencessation.

The inconvenience of playing on therecreation grounds at Golden Gate Parkwithout proper goal posts or lines and theannoyance caused by the spectators per-sistently crowding among the players,were the principal reasons for stoppingthe games. Infuture all these drawbackswillbe avoided, and the sport willsoon beas popular as ever.

Yesterday afternoon a game was playedon the recreation grounds between theold-time rivals,, the Emmets and SanFrancisco*. It was not so distinguishedfor briiliant play as many previous games,

but that was accounted for by the lack ofpractice. A. fair-sized crowd was presentand seemed to thoroughly enjoy the sport.

At3 o'clock the teams lined up as fol«lows :

Knimets. Position. San Franciscos.I-ij-nch Ooal AhernKyr.n.. Fullback WelshKelly ...Fullback Hannigua(>'l)6wd ........... ...Fullback MellottaMescoll Halfback DesmondWard... .....Halfback McCarthyPalmer (captain) Center. ..Mclnerny (captain)Leonard Outer DalyI>aly Center WelshCa5ey.......*. • Center DunneKyan.. Kichl wing ..Dunne5ugrne.......... Bightwing HughesCreede.... L.*llwin* Farrell0'1.0wd.... Left winit WhiteSuKrue Full forward Lynch

Beferee— W. Hennessy.

The play lasted for an hour and a half.The referee forgot all about halftime. andat the close both teams were almost ex-hausted. The San Franciscos assumedthe offensive almost from the start andkept the spnere dodging in the vicinityofthe Emmets' goal. Five times within asmany minutes Steve Welsh and Tom Dalykicked for goal, but Lynch was on thealert and stopped the ball in time. Thesixth try by Welsh was more successful,and the first goal was scored.

The Kmmets, encouraged by Palmer,started in to even up matters, and somepretty play was the result. The SanFranciscos played a stubborn defense, anditwas not tillnear the close that Creedepassed to Palmer, who shot the spherethrough goal. The game closed with thescore <o 5.

Palmer, Creede, O'Do^d and Sugruedid splendid work for the Emmets andMclnerny, Welsh, Daly and Hannigandistinguished themselves for the San tfran-ciscos.

DURRANT HOPEFUL.He Still Keeps Up His Spirits and Looks

Happy.

Theodore Durrant is still healthy andhopeful. He spent considerable of histime yesterday afternoon conversing with,

members of the Salvation Array and otherswho visit the jail to minister to the spirit-ual needs of the inmates. He seemed tobe in the best of spirits and laughed andchatted as though his doom were a mattirof years instead of days.

Durrant still feels aggrieved at the treat-ment he is receiving at the hands of thenewspapers.

He says he is in good health now, andhas inno wise given up hope. He is busywriting most of the time. He refuses totalk about the nature of his work.
