 CHARITY. 
 
AIL, Masonry divine! 
 Glory of ages, shine 
 While time shall last! 
 Where'er thy votaries are, 
 Let Love and Peace be there ; 
 Let thy good works compare 
 With ages past. 
 
 Great mission thine below — 
 This pilgrimage of woe 
 Thine 'tis to cheer. 
 With open heart and hand, 
 Thy sons in every land, 
 At Charity's demand, 
 Are ever near. 
 
 As, since the Day of Light, 
 Blazing with lustre bright, 
 Thy star hath shone; 
 So may its brightness send 
 Joy, gladness, without end, 
 Till Eternity attend, 
 And Time be gone.

THE MASONIC TEMPLE. 
 
 ^he Masonic Temple of San Francisco, erected in the years i860 and 1861 
 ^-^ by the Masonic Hall Association, is the only example of pure Gothic aichi- 
 tecture to be found to-day in San Francisco. It fronts 160 feet on Post street ^nd 
 75 feet on Montgomery street. 
 
 From the sidewalk to the top of the balustrade is 79 feet, and to the tt ,^f 
 the tower is 139 feet. 
 
 It is not, of course, a modern building in the strictest sense, but for comfort, 
 
 A CORNER IN THE HALLWAY. 
 
 quiet elegance and adaptability to the purposes of the Order it ranks with any of 
 the greatest buildings of the City. 
 
 As one enters the portals of the Temple, the appearance of the large hallway 
 produces an impression not soon to be forgotten. 
 
 The oil paintings of Past Grand Masters and Past Masters, on the walls, 
 recall to memory the deeds and benefactions of the living and the dead. The r e 
 are four Lodge rooms in the Temple, King Solomon's Hall being the larg st 
 Masonic Lodge room in the State.

 Speculative Masonry Operating on Practical Lines, as Illustrated by the Brethren of the Grand Juris- 
 diction of California, in its Construction at Decoto, Alameda County, 
 California. 
 
 ALJFORNIA is distinguished as the "land of sunshine, fruits 
 and flowers," and as such is preeminently fitted to serve as 
 a type or symbol of the happiest conditions of human life, 
 when its environments are pleasant and its experiences are 
 enjoyable. 
 
 L,ife, no matter under what genial skies it may find de- 
 velopment, is subject to vicissitudes and changes with invari- 
 able accompaniments of sorrow and heart break, which end 
 in distressing bereavements. 
 
 There are sections of country over which ever and anon 
 
 sweeps the terrific blizzard, emblematic of the pain and 
 
 anguish of life's pitiless storms. When such destructive 
 
 forces are in full play, the unfortunates exposed to their icy 
 
 and death-giving touch would gladly avail themselves of any 
 
 shelter, no matter how unpretentious it might be, to escape 
 
 the desolations encompassing them. Who would refuse to 
 
 open such a door of shelter to the victims of the blizzard ; 
 
 thus, with the outstretching of succoring hands to help 
 
 those of our kind who are suffering from the distresses of life ? 
 
 In every age, and amongst all peoples, the instincts of 
 
 humanity have found more or less expression. The perfection 
 
 of such activities is the outgrowth of the culture and enlightenment of the present 
 
 age. Eleemosynary institutions are largely the product of modern civilization. 
 
 Hu nanitarianism voiced _itself but feebly, even amidst the splendors of Roman 
 
and Grecian dominancy. In those ancient days, the records of which are con- 
 sidered classical, sentiment as regards the unfortunate found but little pi ic 
 advocacy, and but occasional private expression. 
 
 Religion, with all its noble teaching and impressive ceremonies, failei to 
 satisfactorily exploit itself in the relief of human distress. The crushing processes 
 of life went ceaselessly on, like the remorseless grind of "the upper and new " 
 mill-stones of the gods." In the days when nations found quick extinction uuq.. 
 the touch of an irresistible tyranny, and the horrors of war were the common, if 
 not every day experience of the masses, it is no wonder that humanitarianism was 
 considered a poetic thought rather than an actual virtue. 
 
 The causes which ultimated in changing these harsh conditions were numer- 
 ous. All large growths are slow, as the oak in contradistinction to the cotton wood 
 tree illustrates. Thus in things appertaining to civilization. Development was 
 the magic wand which eliminated from the barbaric splendors of a heartless 
 dominancy the thought that to be great the weak must be crushed, and the 
 dependent obliterated. 
 
 What a contrast ! To-day the ideals of charity are crystallized into practical 
 form. Institutions innumerable are organized, equipped and maintained, to 
 brighten the lives of sorrowing men, women and children. One of the distin- 
 guishing glories of the present civilization is its care of the unfortunate. 
 Humanitarianism is finding practical exemplifications. The brotherhood of man 
 has become a fact and has therefore ceased to be a fancy. Dreams of deliverance 
 have eventuated into actualities. 
 
 Masonry has never celebrated its successes on the lines of human helpfulness 
 by blare of trumpet and corresponding shouts of victory. The Order of Free 
 and Accepted Masons illustrates the principle of unostentatious charity by not 
 letting the " right hand know what the left hand does " in the way of brotherly 
 relief. 
 
 The Masonic Brotherhood of California, from the heroic days of the pioneers 
 of '49 to the present hour, has nobly discharged duty and faithfully met obliga- 
 tion. The record of their benevolent deeds is a sealed book to the outside world, 
 and will only receive publicity when the rewards for giving cups of water to the 
 thirsty, bread to the hungry, clothing to the naked, shelter to the homeless, bal 
 to the wounded, and burial to the dead are distributed by the Supreme Grai. 
 Master, whose benedictions on the children of sorrow illustrate the way in wb ; 
 His Sons and Daughters are to minister to their unfortunate fellows. 
 
The beginnings of Masonic history in California are full of romance, and will 
 e\ constitute an inspiration to the Brotherhood to quicken them to the noblest 
 act' vities. For many years the hands of Masonic help extended the unfortunate 
 were unofficial. These hands, however, were warm with heart blood, and were 
 in a sense omnific, for they did much in alleviating sorrow, and were eminently 
 ccessful in binding up the wounds of the afflicted. The records would doubtless 
 disclose when the first official benevolent act was performed by the first Masonic 
 Lodge in this State. It is not ours to quote from such records. They abound 
 with " items" which, if published to the world, would amaze the populace, and 
 silence for all coming time all who presume to question the benign character of 
 this Ancient Craft, which is so in touch with modern life as to be fully abreast of 
 the vital issues of the closing century. 
 
Brief Statistics. 
 
 ^S THE State developed, Masonic Lodges multiplied with 
 responding increase in membership. To-day the Masonic l 
 of Free and Accepted Masons of California under the junsd 
 tion of the Grand Lodge — which was organized at Sacrament 
 April 19th, 1850 — makes a magnificent showing. Statistics fc 
 cold, naked facts, and never voice sentiment. 
 
 The minutes of the Grand Lodge tell the story of numerical growth and 
 Lodge expansion, but remain silent as to the loving deeds wrought by the hands 
 of its Craftsmen. Such deeds are not chronicled in "song and story." 
 
 The Order teaches and emphasizes its impressive lessons by Degrees. The 
 foundation principles of the Fraternity are expressed by befitting symbols, and 
 the rendition of a ritual of exceptional rhetorical beauty, in what are designated 
 the First, Second and Third Degrees, or Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and 
 Master Mason. There are in the State, at this date, 327 Chartered Lodges, 6 
 Lodges working under dispensation, with an enrollment of members, July 
 31st, 1897, of 18,808. A creditable progress — especially so in view of the fact 
 that Masonry does not particularly pride itself on its numerical strength, but lays 
 special stress on the quality or character of its initiates. 
 
 The Degrees of Mark Master, Paster, Most Excellent Master and Royal 
 Arch Mason are conferred upon Master Masons in what are known as Chapters 
 of the Royal Arch, of which there are in California, properly organized and duly 
 chartered, 68 Chapters, with a membership of 5,157. 
 
 There are also 9 Councils of Royal and Select Masters, with a membership of 
 
 1.035- 
 
 The Order of Knights Templar is a distinctive branch of Masonry, and is in 
 close and vital touch with what are called the preceding degrees. Royal Arch 
 Masons alone are eligible to receive the orders conferred in Templar bodies, and 
 the rituals used in conferring these degrees make frequent references to persons, 
 events and ceremonies, identified with the instruction given in the first degrees of 
 Masonry. The Orders conferred by the 35 Commauderies of Knights Templar in 
 this State, with a membership of 2,887, are known as " The Illustrious Order of 
 the Red Cross," "The Order of the Temple," and "The Order of the Knights 
 of Malta." 
 
 The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite bodies number in this State as 
 follows: Eight Lodges of Perfection, 14th degree ; four Chapters of Rose Croix, 
 1 8th degree ; four Councils of Kadosh, 30th degree; four Consistories, 32nd 
 degree, with a total membership of 4000. 
 
 Thomas H. Casswell, 32 , a resident of San Francisco, is Grand Commanu 
 of the Supreme Council, Southern Jurisdiction of the United States. 
 
 W. Frank Pierce, 33 , Oakland, is the Sovereign Grand Inspector Gem 
 for California and Arizona. 
 
The Order of The Eastern Star, in some respects, might be designated as an 
 xiliary of the Mason's Order, and yet, in a strict sense of the word, has no 
 icial connection whatever with the Fraternity. The wives, widows, mothers, 
 
 hters and sisters of Master Masons are alone eligible for membership in .the 
 
 r of the Eastern Star, of which there are in this State one hundred and 
 
 •enty-seven chartered Chapters, including five in Nevada. There are also eight 
 
 hapters working under dispensation. The minutes of the Grand Chapter 
 
 ported a membership in California, July 31, 1897, of 9,389. Master Masons are 
 
 admitted to membership in this Order, many of whom regularly attend. 
 
 The Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine has two 
 Temples in California : one at San Francisco, known as " Islam ' ' Temple, with a 
 membership, June 1st, 1898, of 750. The second one is at Eos Angeles, and is 
 named "Al Malaikah " Temple, which numbered June 1st, 1897, 443 members, 
 thus aggregating in the two Temples a membership of 1193. 
 
 This Order has no connection with Masonry, save in this sense that the pre- 
 requisites for membership in the Order in America is that of a Knight Templar, or 
 of a thirty-second degree A.'. A.". S.\ Rite Mason, in good standing, the latter 
 holding allegiance to the Supreme Council of the Northern or of the Southern 
 Jurisdiction of the United States, or to one in amity with, and recognized by 
 them. In England the eighteenth degree is sufficient. The Order flourishes in 
 Arabia, Persia, Egypt and Turkey, and many encouragers of its principles are to 
 be found among eminent men in all parts of Europe. 
 
 It is natural to infer that the Masonic Order so numerically large, with such an 
 exceptional personnel, splendidly organized, and in many respects elegantly housed, 
 should do creditable things in connection with its benevolent work. The records 
 prove that the Order has been equal to its opportunities, and at the present time is 
 building into beautiful form what we trust will be one of the imperishable super- 
 structures of the State. 
 
 Masonry would be nothing if not scientific. Illustrating geometrical principles, 
 it must of necessity work in harmony with well defined rules and regulations. 
 This is strikingly true as regards its benefactions which are systematically admin- 
 istered. Owing to the remarkable expansion of the Order, the methods heretofore 
 successfully in vogue in caring for the unfortunate and bereaved are now proving 
 inadequate to meet the calls for sympathy and help which come to our Craftsmen 
 from Masonic households made desolate by the calamities of life. In consequence 
 of these multiplying calls, far seeing brethren have ordained that the Fraternity 
 must have a Home — not an asylum with naked walls and cold-blooded ministra- 
 tions, but a veritable Home — in which its worthy beneficiaries may be suitably and 
 comfortably housed. 
 
 The initial step in the consummation of this humane purpose was taken by the 
 Grand Lodge, at its regular annual communication in October, 1891. 
 
 After a thorough discussion of the question as to the expediency of erecting 
 . L'ch a structure, a Board of Trustees was constituted, consisting of Brothers 
 Edward Myers Preston, William Francis Perry, * Albert Hanson, ^Nathaniel Green 
 Curtis, Jacob Voorsanger, *Gustavus Longford Speare, Edward Coleman, *George 
 Fjdmund Whitney.

The Site, 
 
 ■ r- 
 
 ,HKSE brethren were empowered to proceed with the work anc- 
 authorized to secure a desirable site upon which to erect suitab -'- 
 buildings for the contemplated Home. The Trustees, after care- 
 ful consideration and thorough investigation, secured by 
 purchase 260 acres of choice land at Decoto, Alameda Count}', 
 at a cost of $34,000. The location thus selected is in many respects an ideal one 
 and in every way admirably adapted for the purposes of the Home. Its elevation is 
 sufficiently high to give the building erected thereon not only splendid drainage, 
 but to make it conspicuous above the surrounding country, not only as " a thing 
 of beauty," but, as we hope, " a joy forever.' ' The environments are delightfully 
 picturesque, with an equable climate, free from fogs and malarial influences. The 
 soil is rich, and will prove remuneratively productive. The water supply is of 
 the best quality and practically exhaustless. It is within a few hours' ride of the 
 Metropolis, and of easy access from all parts of the State. The beauty of the site 
 and the wisdom of its purchase grows upon all who familiarize themselves with 
 the same. It is predicted that in less than a score of years it will be said con- 
 cerning the brethren who selected this location for the Masonic Widows' and 
 Orphans' Home, that "they builded wiser than they knew." 
 
 The Trustees in due time had plans and specifications submitted to them by 
 the leading architects of the State. After thorough examination and conscientious 
 deliberation, the plans prepared by Brother W. H. Lillie, of Golden Gate Lodge 
 No. 30, F. & A. M., were found to harmonize best with the general features of 
 the Home, as outlined in the minds of the Trustees, and were finally adopted. 
 
 These plans call for the erection of a three-story stone and brick edifice with 
 a finished basement. 
 
 The First Floor will be occupied by the Main Office, Ladies' Reception Room, 
 Infant Class Rooms, Nursery, Sitting Room, Matron's and Trustees' Room. 
 
 It is proposed to make the Main Hall, Office and Ladies' Reception Room the 
 architectural features of the building. 
 
 The utility of every portion of the edifice has been kept in mind, and, whc 
 necessary, mere beauty or ornamentation has given place to the serviceable. 
 
 The Second Floor is arranged with twenty-three Sleeping Rooms, Sewir g 
 Room and Lavatories, to be used exclusively for widows and their children. 
 
The Dormitories are on the Third Floor and are so arranged that the children 
 do not pass through any portion of the First and Second Floors in reaching them. 
 
 The Dining Room, Kitchen, Laundry, Heating apparatus, Servants and Old 
 M i's quarters are located in a separate building directly in the rear of the main 
 -•structure and covered and connected therewith by a covered veranda. 
 
 The building is fire-proof throughout, with modern improvements and con- 
 veniences, such as are necessary to the health and comfort of its inmates. The 
 finishing throughout the structure is of a character to brighten, and so far as 
 possible to relieve the edifice of the look or appearance of an institution. The 
 effort of the architect has resulted in giving to the building a home-like look which 
 will materially add to the happiness of those who may be glad to spend their 
 days of sorrow within its genial walls. 
 
The Corner-Stone. 
 
 OCTOBER 14th, 1896, during the Forty-seventh Communication ( 
 the Grand Lodge, the corner-stone of the Home was laid i 
 R.\ W.\ Brother Edward Myers Preston, Grand Master of Free 
 and Accepted Masons of the State of California. 
 
 The ceremonies incident to the occasion were exceedingly 
 impressive and attended by man3 r thousands of Craftsmen hailing from different 
 parts of the State, and adjoining Grand Jurisdictions. 
 
 Felicitous addresses were delivered on the occasion by Brother Charles Lewis 
 Patton, President of the Board of Trustees; R.\ W.\ Grand Master Edward Myers 
 Preston, and W.\ Jacob Voorsanger, who delivered the oration of the day. 
 
 A silver trowel was used by the R.\ \V.\ Grand Master in spreading the 
 cement upon the lower stone. At a given signal the corner-stone was lowered to 
 its place, at three separate intervals, the Grand Honors being given by all the 
 assembled brethren at each stoppage of the stone. When it had been adjusted 
 in its place, the Grand Master pointed the cement about its edges, and followed 
 this action by giving three blows with his gavel, saying, " I declare this foundation 
 stone to be well formed, true and trusty." 
 
 The ceremonies were concluded with an oration by the Grand Orator of the 
 Grand Lodge, W.\ Brother Jacob Voorsanger, who concluded his eloquent address 
 by committing " the designs of our Architects, the labors of our Craft, and the 
 success of this noble enterprise to the divine care of the Supreme Architect." 
 
 The Grand Lodge, in view of vacancies in the Board of Trustees, occasioned 
 by death and otherwise, made important changes in connection therewith, so that 
 the Board at the present time is composed as follows : 
 
 Brother Charles Lewis Patton, 
 Brother Jacob Voorsanger, 
 
 Brother William Johnson, 
 
 Brother William Frank Pierce, 
 Brother Edward Peabody, 
 
 Brother Thomas Flint, Sr., 
 
 Brother Edwin Whipple, 
 
 Brother George Hinds. 
 
At the Forty-eighth Annual Communication, through the earnest and eloquent 
 plea of Brother Charles L. Pattou, Grand Senior Warden, the Grand Lodge 
 appropriated $20,000 toward the building fund and commissioned the Trustees, 
 ,ider the leadership of Brother Patton, to proceed with the erection of the Home, 
 in compliance with these orders, the Board of Trustees was frequently convened 
 by the President for consultation. The Trustees went forward with patient care, 
 " making haste slowly," and carefully considering to the minutest detail the bids 
 submitted for the construction of the building. After due deliberation, the bid of 
 Brother R. P. Hurlbut, of Mission Lodge No. 169, F. & A. M., was accepted. 
 He is an enthusiastic Masonic worker, whose tireless energy and splendid executive 
 ability has given him high position and enviable reputation, especially in connection 
 with California Commandery No. 1, K. T., of which he is an honored Past 
 Commander, having served his Commandery for two successive years as its 
 Commander. During his second year as Commander, the Commandery made its 
 famous pilgrimage to the Triennial Conclave at Boston, Mass., where it received 
 a royal welcome, and where it reciprocated favors received by entertaining the 
 Sir Knights of the United States with unbounded hospitality. As a Contractor 
 and Builder Mr. Hurlbut has scored a most gratifying success. He brings to the 
 work of erecting the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home an enlarged experience, 
 and a heart in en rapport with the plan of giving to the Masonic beneficiaries of 
 the State an ideal home. 
 
The restive) I Idea. 
 
 ^ALIZING the importance of pushing the work of building to 
 completion, and feeling the necessity of devising ways and means 
 of increasing the funds for said purpose, Brother Charles L. Patton, 
 Senior Grand Warden, and President of the Board of Trustees of 
 the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home, conceived the brilliant 
 thought that a Masonic Festival could be profitably held in the city of San 
 Francisco, which would not only be a great credit to the Fraternity, but 
 ultimate satisfactorily in enlarging the building fund. His suggestion for a 
 Festival, born of his deep interest in the contemplated Home, bore immediate fruit. 
 On his presenting the idea of such a Festival to California Lodge No. i, F. & A. M., 
 of which he is an honored Past Master, it was found that the brethren of this 
 Grand Old Lodge were in perfect accord with the idea. A vote of endorsement 
 was immediately taken and a committee of three, consisting of Brothers C. L. 
 Patton, Henry Ascroft and Edward Peabody — Past Masters — was appointed to 
 confer with the various Lodges, Chapters, Commanderies, Eastern Star, Scottish 
 Rite Bodies, and Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, of San Francisco and vicinity. The 
 conference was held in due time by representative members of the above-mentioned 
 bodies who were appointed by their respective organizations. These delegates 
 were convened in King Solomon Hall, Masonic Temple. Several meetings of the 
 committee were held, the final outcome of which was the decision that a Masonic 
 Festival be held in the Mechanics' Pavilion the second week in May for the benefit 
 of the said Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home. 
 
 An Executive Committee, consisting of the following named ladies and 
 gentlemen, was duly constituted : 
 
 Charles L. Patton, Charles L. Pierce, Dr. EdnaR. Field, Charles W. Conlisk, 
 Mrs. W. Frank Pierce, Reuben P. Hurlbut, M. H. Wascerwitz. 
 
 John Tonningseu, Past Master of Oriental Lodge, No. 144, F. & A. M., on 
 account of his well-known executive ability, has been appointed Superintendent of 
 the Festival. He immediately consecrated himself to the work and, from the 
 hour of his appointment to the present moment, has labored to promote the best 
 interests of the Festival, and though his position has been a trying one, he has 
 acquitted himself most creditably and, by his genial smile and affable address, 
 inspired all having to do with the selection and management of the booths to 
 work together in perfect harmony. 
 
 Brother R. P. Hurlbut has been appointed by the Executive Committee Chair- 
 man of the Memorial Hall Committee, in connection with the Festival held in aid of 
 the Home. All moneys raised by this Committee will be devoted to lasting and sub- 
 stantial improvements in the Main or Reception Hall of the Home, consisting of a 
 marble staircase, marble wainscoting, heavy oaken beam ceiling and marble floor. 
 
The walls, from the top of the wainscot and extending height of doors are to be 
 covered with ornamental tiles. Each person contributing $5 will have his or 
 her name embossed on the face of one of these tablets, 2x6 inches, which will 
 be firmly imbedded in cement upon the brick walls, and thus serve as perpetual 
 evidence of the liberality of the contributor, and remain a befitting memorial of 
 the brethren whose hearts have gone into the superstructure. 
 
 It is expected that the expense of the above-mentioned ornamentation will be 
 largely met by the sale of the embossed tiles, and by the special contributions of 
 brethren upon whom kind fortune has been munificently smiling, who desire to 
 see the main entrance of the Home and its principal hall beautified, in the belief 
 that there should be illustrated in the erection of this Masonic structure the wisdom 
 which contrives, the strength which supports, and the beauty which adorns. 
 
 Brother Hurlbut, who suggested the plan of introducing the memorial tiles, 
 is giving this department his personal supervision and is admirably executing the 
 same, having already received a large number of orders which, it is hoped, will 
 multiply into thousands. 
 
 During the continuance of the Festival in the Pavilion, a committee will be 
 present in the Memorial Booth to receive contributions for the tiles. The process 
 of embossing the same will be illustrated, as a kiln will be in operation, so the 
 patronizing visitors can see how their names in golden letters are permanently 
 imprinted on the tile. The services of artists of ability have been secured for the 
 proper penciling of the names of all who contribute the sum of $5 to this fund. 
 
 Some brethren, who are always on the outlook for opportunities to do good, 
 have recognized the fact that this tile proposition opens the way for them to honor 
 the name, and perpetuate the memory of departed brethren, whose fellowship was 
 greatly enjoyed when they met on the level, and whose companionship was keenly 
 relished in the outside world, amidst the struggles incident to active, manly life. 
 Masonic principle teaches us not only to honor the living who are worthy, but to 
 cherish the memory of the departed, who are too soon forgotten. In a number of 
 cases (not necessary to particularize) generous brothers have subscribed for tiles 
 and ordered embossed thereon the name of some deceased brother — a delicate and 
 expressive way in which to voice loving remembrance, and, in language familiar 
 to us, " an example worthy of imitation." 
 
 One Past Master, appreciative of the honors conferred upon him by the 
 brethren of his Lodge, has suggested the thought of having the "Past Masters" 
 unite in subscribing for a ten or twenty-dollar tile, upon which there shall be 
 suitably embossed the name and number of the Lodge in which they have honored 
 membership, and the fact very briefly stated that said tile has been placed in posi- 
 tion by the Past Masters. 
 
 A capital suggestion, and one which, it is hoped, will inspire the Past Masters 
 and other Past Officers of the Lodges, Chapters and Commanderies throughout 
 the State, to express themselves in a similar " perpetual " way, for these tiles will 
 

 remain in position while the Home stands, a living demonstration of Masonii- 
 beneficence. 
 
 An elegant lithograph of the Home in thirteen different colors will be offered 
 for sale at the low price of one dollar ; this lithograph is a work of art and will be 
 suitably framed. It would grace the office of every Mason in the State, and it is< 
 hoped that every Masonic Home within the Grand Jurisdiction of California will 
 be adorned with one of these beautiful pictures. 
 
 Another opportunity of contributing one dollar to the building fund can be 
 improved by all who desire to have their names chiseled on the face of a bright 
 colored brick to be placed in position on the front wall of the Home. 
 
 These plans have been adopted to encourage the Craftsmen of the State with 
 limited means to make contribution, and to inspire the wealthier brethren to give 
 liberally of their substance in making the building of the Masonic Widows' and 
 Orphans' Home a beautiful as well as a pronounced success. 
 
 The Trustees are greatly encouraged in their work, incident to this Festival, 
 by the hearty co-operation of the Lodges, Chapters, Commanderies and Eastern 
 Star organizations, many of which will have booths in the Pavilion, elegantly 
 appointed, to further the plans of securing building funds. 
 
 To the ladies the Trustees are under special obligation. Their co-operation 
 has been hearty, intelligent and inspiring. No great cause has ever been pushed 
 to a success without the potent influence of woman. If the Masonic Widows' and 
 Orphans' Home ever becomes an imperishable fact, it will be largely due to the 
 timely and efficient co-operation of the women of our Masonic households. The 
 ladies organized under the auspices of the Lodges, Chapters and Commanderies of 
 Knights Templar, or connected with the Order of the Eastern Star, and Com- 
 mandery Auxiliaries have not only tender hearts but appreciative spirits, and 
 apprehend as by intuition the needs of the hour as regards the Home in contem- 
 plation. Backed by their generous gifts, quickened by their splendid activity, 
 and inspired by the timely expression of their practical ideas as to what constitutes 
 a true Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home, the Trustees are advancing with 
 the work of construction in the belief, that in due time the fondest dreams of the 
 Brotherhood in relation to this Home will be so incarnated in solid brick and 
 stone as to stand for generations, not only as a monument of the liberality of 
 California Masons, but as a genial Home in which the worthy widows and orphans 
 of Masons may find rest and comfort in the midst of their bereavement. 
 
Beneficiaries. 
 
 HE question has been asked : "Who are to occupy the Masonic 
 Widows' and Orphans' Home?" It is said that the phrase 
 "Widows' and Orphans' Home" suggests the idea that aged 
 and otherwise infirm brethren of the Order in this State will 
 not be privileged to enter the Home as its inmates. This is a 
 mistake, for provision will be made for the proper maintenance 
 of male as well as female beneficiaries. The query then as to 
 who shall find an abiding place in the Home, so far as the 
 question of sex is concerned, is settled. If one should attempt to solve 
 the problem on broader lines, he would have to be a seer, a prophet, or 
 possessed of such occult powers as to successfully interpret the future even before 
 its shadows are cast athwart the pathway of life. Whose vision is sufficiently 
 penetrating and far reaching as to qualify him to enact such a role ? It is not 
 outside the realm of the possible, even if it does not touch at present on the lines 
 of the probable, that men, women and children, now active and correspondingly 
 prosperous, may see the day when they will be glad to enjoy the shelter of a 
 Masonic Home. 
 
 The developments of life are not always agreeable, and seldom if ever unfold 
 as we desire. Should it be ours to enjoy to the end of life the comforts and 
 delights of successful industry, and find within the precincts of our own personal 
 homes the cheer which happy family life alone affords, we will have cause for con- 
 tinual thankfulness. May this be our portion, and may all the allotments of 
 Providence tend to the consummation of such an end. 
 
 For less happily circumstanced brethren and their sorrowing families, we 
 must have a tender heart of sympathy. The Order to which we owe allegiance 
 emphasizes Charity as a cardinal virtue. Unless brotherly love finds expression 
 in our lives, we cannot legitimately claim the proud distinction of being true 
 Masons. In the interests then of the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home, now 
 in process of erection, prosperous Masons throughout the State without exception 
 should do all they can to make the cause which presumably lies nigh their hearts 
 a blessed success. Effort in this direction, even if it involves sacrifices of time and 
 money, will tell more to the honor of Free Masonry in this State than the " letter 
 
 perfect," and otherwise faultless rendition of our matchless ritual.

CHARLES LEWIS PATTON. 
 
 To enumerate the many services rendered by Brother Charges Lewis Patton, in 
 behalf of the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home, would be an impossibility in a short 
 article of this character, but happily the thousands of people interested in the success of this 
 grand project of the Masonic Fraternity are already aware of the energy, perseverance, and 
 self-sacrificing character of the President of the Board of Trustees of the Home. A Native 
 Son from Sonoma County, Brother Patton received a good education in California and finished 
 it in Philadelphia, from which place he returned in 1885. He was admitted to the bar in 1887 
 and very shortly gained a reputation for his painstaking analyses of his cases and his aggres- 
 sive presentation of his pleadings. 
 
 In all the transactions of his life, legal, commercial and fraternal, the same forcible activity 
 ensures success from the commencement of any ot his undertakings, wherever success is 
 possible; while any one coming in frequent contact with him is impressed with the geniality of 
 his disposition and fairness of purpose. Brother Patton took his blue lodge degrees in Cali- 
 fornia Lodge No. 1, in 1887, was appointed Senior Deacon in 1891, elected Junior Warden in 
 1892, Senior Warden in 1893, a °d Worshipful Master in 1894. He was elected Junior Grand 
 Warden of the Grand Lodge in 1896, and Grand Senior Warden in 1897. He is Past High 
 Priest of California Chapter No. 5, R. A. M., and is now Generalissimo of Golden Gate Com- 
 mandery, Knights Templar. In the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, Brother Patton has 
 taken the different degrees, held a number of offices, and is now Honorary Inspector General 
 33° of San Francisco. 
 
W. FRANK PIERCE. 
 
 Brother PIERCE resides in Oakland, and as President of the Blue Lakes Water Company, 
 has his office on the ninth floor of the Crocker building in the city of San Francisco. He is 
 distinguished for his personal probity, business integrity and enterprise, and ranks high in 
 the affections of his Masonic brethren throughout the State. His Masonic record is an hon- 
 orable one, and by his devotion to the pure principles of the fraternity, which he has splendidly 
 exemplified in his personal character, has won place and found station in the Order. His 
 Masonic record is briefly summarized as follows : 
 
 Past Master of Oakland Lodge No. 188, F. & A. M. ; Past High Priest Oakland Chapter 
 No. 36, Royal Arch .Masons ; Past Illustrious Master Oakland Council No. 12, Royal and 
 Select Masters ; Past Eminent Commander Oakland Commandery No. ir, Knights Templar ; 
 Inspector General 33° Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite for the State of California ; 
 Grand Senior Warden of the Grand Commandery, Knights Templar of California ; Member 
 of Islam Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. 
 
 In these several exalted positions Brother Pierce has shown himself to be a workman of 
 superior excellence, and one who has never had "cause to be ashamed." He is a genial, 
 whole-souled gentleman and in every respect an honor to the brotherhood of Free and 
 Accepted Masons. 
 
C. W. CONLISK. 
 
 Brother Conusk is a native of St. Joseph, Mo., and entered upon life July 3, 1861. He 
 spent his boyhood's days in the place of his nativity, where he was thoroughly educated, 
 graduating in due time from the State University of Missouri. He came to California in 1884 
 and settled in San Jose, where he soon became known as an expert accountant. For several 
 years he served creditably as the Secretary of several important corporations — the largest in 
 Santa Clara County. In 1894, the important position of Business Manager of the Morning 
 Call was tendered to him, which he efficiently filled until within the past few months, when he 
 retired to take a position where the duties would be less exacting and the labors less exhausting. 
 
 Brother Conlisk is a member of San Jose Lodge No. 10, F. and A. M.; Howard Chapter 
 No. 14, R. A. M.; California Council No. 2, R. and S. M. He was knighted in San Jose Com- 
 mandery No. 10, K. T., and retains his membership therein. He is also a member of all the 
 Scottish Rite bodies, and has held important offices in the same, being at the present time 
 Grand Commander of San Francisco Consistory No. 1, to which position he was unanimously 
 elected on its organization in January, 1898. 
 
 At the last meeting of the Supreme Council Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, held in 
 the City of Washington, D. C, he received the honorarium of Knight Commander of the 
 Court of Honor. Brother Conlisk is also a member of Islam Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S., and 
 is everywhere recognized as a " hail fellow well met." His disposition is pleasant, his address 
 affable, and his friendships abiding. 
 
Dr. THOHAS FLINT. 
 
 Dr. Thomas Flint, the subject of this sketch, was born May 13th, 1824, in New Vine- 
 yard, Maine. His ancestors fought in the war of the Revolution. 
 
 Dr. Flint came to California in 185 1, via Isthmus of Panama, since which time he has 
 resided in this State. His home for many years has been near San Juan, San Benito County. 
 He is a member of the California State Medical Society and the American Medical Association. 
 He is also a member of the firm of Flint, Bixby and Co. He was one of the first in the State 
 of California to engage in the manufacture of beet sugar. In public Hie he was elected and 
 served as State Senator in the twenty-first and twenty-second sessions of the California Legis- 
 lature ; he was for many years Supervisor in Monterey and San Benito Counties, and also 
 served as Court Commissioner for partition of several Spanish grants, as State Director of 
 District Agricultural Society, and as a member of State and Congressional Committees ; he is 
 a member of the State Dairy Bureau, a Director of the Bank of Hollister, and was recently 
 elected a Trustee of the State Library. 
 
 He has been a member of Texas Lodge, F. and A. M., of San Juan, since 1871, and was 
 W.\ Master of that Lodge for ten years. In 1896 he was elected Most Excellent Grand High

 Dr. Flint is father of Thos. Flint, Jr., Grand Master of the M.\ W.\ Grand Lodge, F. and 
 A. M., of the State of California. 
 
Rev. J. FUENDELING. 
 
 Many representative clergymen have membership in the Masonic Fraternity, and among 
 the number of such divines is the Rev. J. Fuendeling, the well-known and beloved Pastor of 
 St. Mark's Lutheran Church, of this city. Mr. Fuendeling has officiated in his present 
 pastorate most acceptably for fifteen consecutive years, and has attained a most creditable 
 standing in ecclesiastical circles, and is recognized throughout the State as an earnest, 
 Christian gentleman. He came to the city of San Francisco in 1878, from St. John's Church, 
 at •Wheeling. West Virginia. 
 
 Brother Fuendeling is a member of Herman Lodge, No. 127, F. and A. M., and has 
 rendered efficient service as a Warden. He came to this country from Hildesheim, Prussia, 
 and, though he has not forgotten the " Fatherland," is a stalwart American in opinion, and 
 highly prizes his citizenship in the land of civil and religious liberty, where free institutions 
 are at their best. 
 
Dr. C. H. ALLEN. 
 
 The original of the above portrait, Dr. Cymas H. Allen, of Centreville, Alameda County, 
 California, is a native of the old Granite State, Vermont. He first saw the light of day Sep- 
 tember 5th, 1833, in Orange County. As he grew towards manhood's estate he decided to 
 enter the medical profession, and as a preliminary step towards that undertaking, he entered 
 the University of Vermont and took a thorough |course in medicine and surgery. He was 
 graduated in 1857, and after ten years' eastern practice came to the Pacific coast and located 
 in the beautiful town of Centreville, where he has remained ever since, although his practice 
 extends for miles around in the adjoining towns of Decoto, Irvington, Niles, Mission San 
 Jose, Newark, Alvarado, etc. Dr. Allen became a Mason before coming to California, but has 
 since joined Howard Chapter R. A. M., No. 14, and San Jose Commandery, No. 10. He has 
 always evinced a warm enthusiastic feeling towards the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home, 
 which is only four miles from his residence. He was present at the laying of its corner 
 stone and hopes to be present at its dedication, and in all probability, as the years go by, he 
 will only be too glad to minister to the inmates of the Home should they require medical min- 
 istration. Dr. Allen enjoys a large and lucrative practice, and aside from his profession, is a 
 prominent [man in his community. He is whole-souled, genial, kind and philanthropic — in 
 fact a courteous and refined gentleman, a credit to society, the medical profession, and 
 Masonic Craft. 
 
F. B. GRANGER, JR. 
 
 Brother F. B. Granger, Jr., was born in Alvarado, June 26, 1855, at that time called 
 Union City. His father, F. B. Granger, Sr., came to the Coast in 1853 from New York State 
 and was engaged in overland freighting business for many years and crossed the continent 
 sixteen times. 
 
 Mr. Granger has been conducting the Riverside Hotel, at Alvarado, with his father, for 
 twenty years. He received his education at the Alvarado school and at McClure's Military 
 Academy, Oakland ; after graduating there he became a teacher and had charge of the mili- 
 tary department for several months. He then accepted a position in the Recorder's office at 
 Oakland and was there two years. He then went into the hotel business with his father, in 
 which he has been engaged for the past twenty years, and during this time has been active 
 in various other pursuits. The father and son were the first ones to agitate and promote the 
 Dingee Water Works, which were located on part of their property. 
 
 Having been a member of Alameda Lodge of Centreville for about 14 years, Mr. Granger 
 was W.\ Master from January, 1888, to January, 1891, and had previously occupied every 
 chair. At the Corner-stone Laying of the Home he had charge of the barbecue and was active 
 in making the ceremony an event long to be remembered by visiting brethren. 
 
Dr. H. B. MEHRMANN. 
 
 Having a residence of twenty years in Oakland, is one of the best known 
 citizens of the Athens of the Pacific, both professionally and socially. Doctor 
 Mehrmann, since receiving his degrees some fourteen years ago, has built up one 
 of the most extensive and lucrative practices, numbering among his patients 
 many of the most influential and wealthy residents of Oakland. That the Doc- 
 tor's abilities were appreciated by his medical brothers of the California State 
 Medical Society is shown by his election as one of the Board of Examiners, 
 which position he held for several years and lecturer for four years, and still fur- 
 ther honored by being chosen President for two terms — 1894 an d *895. Doctor 
 Mehrmann with his family consisting of wife and daughter resides at 852 Isabella 
 street, where his office is also located. 
 
 36 
 
Dr. H. E. MULLER. 
 
 Brother H. E. Mui«lER is a physician of note who found his way to Oakland from 
 Switzerland, where he was born in St. Gall in the year i860. He received his early education 
 in the schools, both private and public, of his native town, and finished at the high-school of 
 Schaffhausen on the Rhine, which overlooks the famous falls of that name, at the age of 
 seventeen, and started immediately for California, whence his parents had preceded him. He 
 had at that time a very limited knowledge of the English language, but that obstacle to a 
 successful career in this country was overcome by a year's course at the San Francisco High 
 School. He at once entered the medical department of the State University and graduated 
 in 1880. He then located in Oakland and commenced to practice his chosen profession. In 
 1890 he returned to Europe, spending a year of arduous study in Berlin and Zurich. While in 
 Berlin, he was a member of the International Medical Congress which met there in August, 
 1890. He returned to Oakland and resumed practice at the close of the year. 
 
 In 1892 he became a member of the Board of Health of Oakland, and in 1895 Presi- 
 dent of the Free Clinic in Dr. Woolsey's hospital. Dr. Miiller is very popular socially, is 
 President of the " Deutsche)' Club ' ' and a member of Live Oak Lodge, F. and A. M. 
 
FRANCIS K. SHATTUCK. 
 
 Brother Francis K. Shattuck, "The Father of Berkeley," is as well known in 
 California as any other resident of Alameda County. 
 
 Although born in the State of New York in the year 1825, he is to-day as active mentally 
 and physically as many a man twenty years his junior. 
 
 Brother Shattuck arrived in San Francisco in February, 1850, and at once followed the 
 crowd to the mining regions, where he remained for about two years. 
 
 Upon his return from the mines, becoming convinced that Oakland and the neighboring 
 territory offered a promising field for an active and successful business life, he settled there 
 permanently and to-day is one of the largest holders of real estate in Alameda County. 
 
 The town of Berkeley owes much of its substantial growth to the active efforts for 
 progress and improvement of Brother Shattuck. 
 
 Brother Shattuck is a member of Live Oak Lodge, No. 61, of which he is a Past Master, 
 is a Knight Templar, and has been a member of the Order since the year 1854. 
 
 He has always taken a deep interest in the establishment of the Widows' and Orphans' 
 Home, and was present at the Laying of the Corner-stone.

Col. J. D. FRY. 
 
 Brother J. D. Fry, one of the most widely known of the California pioneers, has passed 
 through a much more eventful and active life than conies to the lot of most men. He was 
 born at Ghent, Kentucky, on July 15, 1849, and at the early age of sixteen years was appointed 
 to the position of Deputy Sheriff by his uncle General Fry. Four years later he was elected to 
 succeed his uncle to the office of Sheriff, and then served as Recorder, and was twice elected to 
 the legislature. 
 
 In 1849 he came to California in the company of Wm. Sharon and a strong friendship was 
 formed which ended only with the death of Sharon. For some years after his arrival in Cali- 
 fornia Brother J. D. Fry held the position of Special Agent for the Post-office Department, on 
 the Pacific Coast, which he resigned in order to devote his entire time to mining ventures in 
 which he had become interested. Later on, as President of the Crown Point and Belcher 
 "Bonanza Mines," he became widely known as one of the most successful mining men of the 
 Coast. 
 
 Brother Fry is today interested not only in mining enterprises all over the Pacific Coast, 
 but many of his extensive commercial undertakings are potent factors in the present prosperity 
 and development of California.

H. L. CULVER. 
 
 Brother M. L. Culver, the Superintendent of Post-office Station B, is of old New 
 England stock, having been born in Montpelier, Vermont, in 1844. 
 
 Brother Culver came to Oregon in 1867, and was there engaged in business for several 
 years, after which he came to California in 1873. He lost the sight of one eye while serving 
 in the war in the year 1863. He has been in the service of the Post-office Department for over 
 sixteen years past, while at the same time being prominently identified with two large 
 Building and Loan Associations. 
 
 Brother Culver, who is now 32d degree in the Scottish Rite, has been a member of the 
 Order for about thirty years, is a member of Oak Grove Lodge, Alameda, and has an in- 
 numerable number of friends in all parts of California. 
 
REUBEN PRESTON HURLBUT. 
 
 Reuben Preston Hurlbut, Past Eminent Commander of California Commandery 
 No. i, K. T., is essentially a self-made man. He was born in 1845, m the thrifty Canadian 
 village of Sutton, Province of Quebec, which, however, he left when little more than a 
 boy, to come to the States to begin work for himself, and by his untiring energy and 
 strict attention to business has acquired an enviable reputation as a business man, a 
 citizen and a Mason. 
 
FRANK C. JORDAN. 
 
 Frank C. Jordan, the popular and efficient young County Clerk of Ala- 
 meda County, is a native son of Shasta County. Mr. Jordan, since his advent 
 into the important position which he now fills, has inaugurated many reforms, 
 and his conduct of the office has given entire satisfaction to the public and tax- 
 payers, so much so indeed, that he has been prevailed upon to allow his name to 
 go before the next Republican Convention for nomination and re-election. Per- 
 haps no young man in Alameda County has the standing and confidence of the 
 general public as has Mr. Jordan. 
 
 His ability and integrity are beyond question and his friends are legion. 
 
Dr. C. G. KENYON. 
 
 Brother C. G. Kenyon was born in Chenango County, N. Y., 1846. He 
 has practiced medicine in San Francisco since 1874, was on the staff of St. Mary's 
 Hospital for nine years, and is now Surgeon to St. L,uke's Hospital. He is ex- 
 President of the City and County Medical Society, ex-President of the Medical

THOflAS C. HUXLEY. 
 
 There is an old saying, "nothing succeeds 
 like success," but to achieve success requires 
 perseverance and ability. 
 
 The successful career of Brother Thomas 
 C. Huxley, of Centreville, Alameda County, 
 amply proves his possession of these two most 
 necessary qualities. 
 
 Brother Huxley is a native of New York 
 City and came to California in 1875, since which 
 time he has resided and practiced law in Alameda 
 County. The large number of acquaintances 
 and friends gained by Brother Huxley during 
 the twenty-three years of his residence in our 
 neighboring county is ample proof of the appre- 
 ciation of his ability and sterling qualities. 
 
 Brother Huxley was Master of Alameda Lodge No. 167, F. and A. 
 from 1892 to 1895. 
 
 Dr. HENRY WYLE EMERSON. 
 
 Among the younger generation of the pro- 
 fessional men of Alameda County, who, by their 
 own ability and personal qualities, have suc- 
 cessfully established themselves in their chosen 
 profession, is Brother Henry W. Emerson, of 
 the town of Centreville. 
 
 Brother Emerson was born on September 
 9th, 1863, at Dubuque, Iowa, and came to 
 California in 1892, locating permanently at

 Brother Emerson now numbers among his 
 friends many of the most prominent and influ- 
 ential citizens of Alameda County. He is Junior 
 Warden of Alameda I,odge No. 167, F. and A. 
 
 M., at Centreville, California.

 Secretary of State, is a good example 
 of the ; right man in the right place. 
 Born at Haywards, on March 24th, 
 1857, he has led an active business and 
 political life ever since he became of 
 age. Brother Brown has held the po- 
 sitions of City Trustee of Haywards, 
 Treasurer of the same town, Member 
 of the Legislature at the age of twenty- 
 five, [served as School Trustee and 
 Justice of the Peace at Collinsville, 
 and was elected Clerk of the Supreme 
 Court from Solano County in 1890. 
 His election as Secretary of State from 
 San Francisco, in 1894, was remark- 
 able for the fact that he received the 
 highest vote cast and the largest plu- 
 rality ever given to a candidate in 
 California, being nearly 41,000 in 
 number. Brother Brown has been 
 three times Past Master of Eucalyptus 
 Lodge, No. 243, F. and A. M., of Hay- 
 wards, Cal., and is a member of Oak- 
 land Commandery Knights Templar,

 of Oakland and Deputy District Attorney for Alameda 
 County, was born in Springfield, Illinois. Sept. 28, 1865.

 prominent business man of that city. He came to 
 California with his parents in 1875 and resided in Napa 
 County for three years, but removed to Oakland in 
 1878, where he has since resided. He graduated from

 In March, 1891, he was appointed Justice of the Peace for Brooklyn Township and in 
 November, 1892, was re-elected to the same position and served until March, 1893, when he 
 resigned to accept his present offices, which he has since filled with an ability and faithful- 
 ness that gives him a high standing among his professional associates and the general public. 
 He is a conscientious officer, eager and earnest in the service of the city and county and is 
 prominently mentioned as the next District Attorney for Alameda County. Mr. Melvin was 
 married in 1893 to Miss Louise Morse, of Portland, Or., and has one child, a boy. He is an

FRANK W. SPIARS. 
 
 Brother Frank W. Spiars, of Oakland, a protr.- 
 inent and popular business man of that city, and one of 
 the proprietors of the Philadelphia Restaurant (Spiars & 
 Walti) died of Bright 's disease at his home in Fruitvale,

 ally in Lodge circles. He was a member of Albion Lodge, 
 Sons of St. George, the Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, 
 and the Masonic Order, and was also a Director of the 
 Oakland Exposition. He leaves a widow, but no children. 
 He was a man of generous impulses and highly esteemed 
 by all with whom he came in contact, as well as a public- 
 spirited citizen, always ready to assist any enterprise for 
 the advantage of the city in which he lived. 
 
 The funeral services were held at the residence, on 
 Sunday, January 23d, the Rev. V. Marshall Law officiat- 
 ing ; thence to Masonic Temple, which was crowded with friends of the deceased. Many 
 prominent citizens were present to pay their respects to a man whose activity in affa'rs and 
 genial nature made him hosts of friends. The services were under the auspices of the 
 Masonic Fraternity, and were conducted by W.\ Master Judge F. B. Ogden, of Live Oak 
 Lodge. Appropriate music was furnished by the Masonic quartette, consisting of George 
 Carleton, Harry Melvin, Alfred Wilkie, and Ben Clark. There were many elaborate floral 
 pieces sent by friends, the casket being nearly covered with exquisite flowers. Among the 
 pieces was a pillow from the Knights of Pythias, having the words ' ' In Memoriam ' ' worked 
 on it. Albion Lodge sent an anchor, the Masons a broken wheel with "Regard" on it, 
 and the employees of the Philadelphia Restaurant another broken wheel.

 San Jose, a member of Alameda Lodge No. 127, 
 is a merchant whose successful business career 
 has made him thousands of friends in California. 
 Born in Bavaria on the 4th of March, 1846, he 
 arrived in San Francisco in September, 1863, and 
 shortly afterward commenced his business life in 
 Mission San Jose. 
 
 For thirty-five years past he has been building 
 up his merchandise business, until to-day, through 
 his energy and perseverance, he has established 
 himself in the front rank of the mercantile com- 
 munity across the bay, and has earned the respect 
 and good will of all who know him. For sixteen 
 
 years Brother Ehrman has been a member of the Masonic Order, and over sixty 
 members of San Francisco Lodges were present when he took his degrees. 
 
 Brother Ehrman participated in the ceremony attending the Laying of the 
 Corner-stone of the Widows' and Orphans' Home. 
 
PETER DEAN. 
 
 PETER Dean was born in England, on Christmas day, 
 1828, and was brought to this country two years later by his 
 parents, who located in Lowell, Mass. His father, Benjamin 
 Dean, soon became identified with the commercial and po- 
 litical interests of New England, and was one of the first 
 candidates on the liberty ticket in the State of Massachu- 
 setts. Peter Dean arrived in California June 13th, 1849, and 
 immediately commenced mining, which he followed for a 
 short time, then engaged in various commercial pursuits in 
 California, Oregon and Washington. While engaged in 
 business pursuits in Mariposa, in 1854, Mr. Dean applied for 
 and received the Entered Apprentice and Fellowcraft 
 degrees in Freemasonry, in old Mariposa Lodge. Having 
 an opportunity to sell out to advantage, he did so and 
 removed to Los Angeles in 1854, where he received the de- 
 gree of Master Mason, in Los Angeles Lodge No. 42, F. and 
 A. M. In 1862 he located in San Francisco and demitted to California Lodge, No. 1. He is 
 a'so a member of California Chapter, and is Past Commander of California Commandery, in 
 which body he was knighted July 10th, 1874. Mr. Dean is a life member and ex-President of 
 the Society of California Pioneers, and has always been one of its most enthusiastic members. 
 His standing as a business man, and his reputation as a financier, is shown by the many places 
 he has been called upon to fill, which required uncommon business ability and financial acu- 
 men. Mr. Dean is President of the Sierra Lumber Co , one of the most extensive enterprises 
 of the Pacific Coast. Notwithstanding the fact that he has always had so many commercial 
 and political interests to attend to, he has found time to attend to Masonic duties. Mr. Dean's 
 brother, Benjamin Dean, was elected Grand Commander of the Grand Commandery Knights 
 Templar of the U. S. in 1880. 
 
 WILLIAM E. HALE. 
 
 Wilwam E. Hale, born in Hollis, New Hamp- 
 shire, in 1842, is descended from the well known Hale 
 family of Revolutionary times. 
 
 While Mr. Hale was still young the family removed 
 to Princeton, Ills., where he was brought up and edu- 
 cated, working hard all summer to obtain enough to 
 keep him at school during the winter, and, in the ab- 
 sence of his father, owing to his mother the rectitude of 
 principle and courage of spirit that have characterized 
 his later life. He came to this coast in 1861, when he 
 engaged in mining in Placer County. He then went to 
 Virginia City, at that time in the throes of the Nevada ' 
 excitement, entering the employ of Wells, Fargo & Co. 
 at Gold Hill, and afterwards was in charge of the ex- 
 press department at Sacramento. While in Nevada he 
 served as aid on the staff of Gen. Jacob Van Bokkelen, 
 Provost-Marshal for that District. 
 
 In 1884 he was elected Sheriff of Alameda County, 
 to which office he was twice re-elected, holding it for 
 three successive terms, until 1891, when he was ap- 
 pointed Warden of the State Penitentiary at San Quen- 
 tin, a position of great responsibility and importance, 
 
 having some 1,300 convicts under his charge, and the selection and appointment of nearly 100 
 officers and guards. Mr. Hale is and always has been a Republican, but his management of 
 the Prison was so successful and satisfactory, that in 1895, by a Democratic administration, 
 he was re-appointed for a further term of four years as Warden. 
 
 During his term of office (nearlv eight years), but one escape has been made, and that 
 was through the carelessness of a' guard. The expenses of the Prison have been greatly 
 reduced through his efforts and careful administration, the per capita cost last year (1897) 
 being only 25 cents per day. 
 
 He is a member of the Oakland Commandery, No. 11, Knights Templar. 
 
JOHN D. SIEBE, 
 
 The Popular Assessor. 
 
 Of all public offices, that 
 of Assessor is the most try- 
 ing, as it is the hardest in 
 which to please and satisfy 
 the general public, but not- 
 withstanding all its trials, 
 Mr. Siebe contrives to please 
 and pacify all the disturbing 
 elements and retain the 
 popularity that has been ac- 
 corded him for years. 
 
 Mr. Siebe believes that a 
 public office should be con- 
 ducted the same as a private 
 business; strict economy, at- 
 tention to all the details, 
 rigid enforcement of office 
 rules and proper attention 
 and courtesies to people in 
 which they come in contact. 
 
 Mr. Siebe has been elected 
 for two terms of eight years, 
 and should he desire re-elec- 
 tion there is no doubt but he 
 would be elected by a larger 
 majority than ever. 
 
 EDWARD R. SWAIN. 
 
 Although born in New York, Mr. Swain can be 
 considered more of a Californian than many who are 
 born here, as he has been here continuously since he 
 was two years old and been in active business for over 
 twenty years. 
 
 During this period he has shown in a marked de- 
 gree his abilities as an architect, having erected some of 
 the most ornamental and imposing structures in the city. 
 Among them may be named the H. S. Crocker Building 
 on Bush Street, the Hobart Building on Market Street, 
 the Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson Block, the Arizona 
 Block, the W. D. Clark Building on Bush and Battery 
 Streets, the Golden Gate Park Lodge, the handsome 
 residence of W. F. Whittier on Jackson and Laguna Streets, and [last but not least, the new 
 Union Depot now being erected at the foot of Market Street, which originally was designed 
 by the late A. Page Brown. In appointing Mr. Swain his successor, the Harbor Commission- 
 ers made an excellent selection, as has been shown by the many improvements and modifica- 
 tions he has made in the original plans. Brother Swain is a member of California Lodge No. i, 
 F. and A. M. / 
 
ISAIAH W. LEES. 
 
 Isaiah W. LEES has been connected with the Police force of San Francisco since 1853. 
 Step by step he has risen to his present position of Chief of Police, and for forty-four years 
 he has held the office of Chief of the Detective Bureau, and has made a reputation for himself 
 that has never been excelled in this country. More than any man in the State has Chief 
 Lees made the law to be feared and respected, and it is altogether impossible to compute the 
 amount of good effected and crime prevented by his vigorous administration. What Chief 
 Lees has done for this City and State, it would be no easy task to sum up. An active life of 
 nearly half a century in the most exciting of all professions must necessarily contain hundreds 
 of experiences the mere recital of which would fill volumes. He is courteous and affable, 
 charitable and kind, and a credit to the Police force of San Francisco. 
 
 Chief Lees was born in England, but brought to this country when a mere infant, and 
 raised in the State of New Jersey. He is a life member of the society of California Pioneers. 
 
ANNIE KLINE RIKERT. 
 
 & 
 
 HE Stockton and Tuolumne County Railroad — which is perhaps better known as 
 the " Women's Railroad," it having originated in the fertile brain of a woman, the 
 formation of the Company being her work and its main officers women — is rapidly 
 getting to be more than a paper road, as ere this publication goes to press the first shovelfuls 
 
 of earth will be thrown up and 
 the actual work of preparing the 
 roadbed for the rails com- 
 menced. The whole country 
 through which the road will 
 pass is thoroughly enthusiastic 
 and to a man are lending all the 
 assistance in their power toward 
 its successful completion; 
 the city of Stockton, the water 
 terminal, has had a number of 
 mass meetings which were 
 officered by its best citizens, and 
 at which material aid was 
 promised. 
 
 California can lay claim to 
 the proud distinction of produc- 
 ing the first woman railroad 
 president, Mrs. Annie Kline 
 Rikert, who as a business woman 
 and woman of affairs is the peer 
 of most men. Perhaps the 
 Masons of California will under- 
 stand this when they know that 
 Mrs. Rikert received her busi- 
 ness training as a young girl 
 from her father, who was a 
 member of the Masonic Fratern- 
 ity in Mississippi, and who was 
 honored by them with advance- 
 ment to positions of the highest 
 dignity and trust in the Order 
 in the confines of that State. 
 
 For some years, Mrs. Rikert 
 has devoted a great deal of at- 
 tention to mining properties 
 and latterly has secured and 
 located some valuable gold properties in Tuolumne County, among them being the Pina Blanca, 
 Mascot, Big Gun and Oro Madre. There she learned of the value of the mining properties in 
 that region and also the needs of the business community : a short direct road to a water 
 terminal, which would give quick communication and low fares and freights. Stockton on 
 tide water, Copperopolis, Sonora, Soulsbyville and Summers\ille make a straight line of only 
 sixty miles, with a very easy gradient. This proposition grasped, she determined to build a 
 railroad, and ere many moons have passed her work will be finished. 
 
 From a business standpoint the road ought to pay from the start, as thousands of tons of 
 material are needed for the mines, thousands of tons of ores and concentrates will come out, 
 vast amounts of hay, grain, lime, copper, slate, granite, marble, fruit and lumber seek trans- 
 portation, and a low freight rate will still further extend the production and consumption of 
 the country. The capital stock is $i,coo,ooo, with shares at a par value of $100. A number 
 of prominent business women are interested and men of capital are taking hold as an invest- 
 ment, which will probably enable the road to be built without bonding, making it a people's 
 road with dividends at once. The officers of the company are Mrs. Annie Kline Rikert, 
 President; Jabish Clement, Vice-President; Mrs. Maggie Downing Brainard, Treasurer ; R. 
 S. Clarke, Secretary ; and these with Hannah Lewella Lane and Mrs. E. T. Gould are 
 directors. Henry A. Brainard, of San Jose, is Chief Engineer. 
 
 The San Francisco office of the company is room i, Grand Hotel. 
 
EDGAR D. PEIXOTTO. 
 
 The successful career of Brother Edgar D. Peixotto 
 has been one of the best examples of late years for the 
 younger generation of California to pattern by. Having 
 by perseverance and hard study fitted himself to enter 
 upon the practice of the law, Brother Peixotto entered 
 the office of the District Attorney, where by the sheer 
 force of his strong personality and legal ability, in the 
 four years of his term, he earned the reputation of a 
 strong and conscientious worker for the public good. 
 Handling the business of the public commonwealth in 
 the same scrupulously careful manner as he would that 
 of a valued client, he became known as one of the best 
 Assistant District Attorneys this city has ever had. Ow- 
 ing to his rapidly growing private practice, Brother 
 Peixotto retired from public office to devote his entire 
 time to the interests of his clients, with a well-earned 
 
 reputation in both business and social circles as a young man with a brilliant and promising 
 future. 
 
 WILLIAM J. BIGGY, 
 
 The New Registrar of Voters. 
 
 The appointment of ex-Senator 
 Wiuiam J. BiGGY, to the office of 
 Registrar, by Governor Budd, is a 
 compliment to that gentleman of 
 which any citizen might be proud. 
 
 It means a clean and honest elec- 
 tion in November next — free from 
 Boss dictation and manipulation. 
 Mr. Biggy is a native son, having been 
 born in this city in 1859. He was 
 elected to the Senate in 1892, from a 
 Republican district, with a Demo- 
 cratic majority of 740, and his course 
 in that body was sincere, manly and 
 patriotic. He is Vice-President of 
 the United States Laundry and stands 
 high in business as well as political 
 circles.

R. H. CLEMENT. 
 
 R. M. Clement, the present efficient City Engineer 
 of the city of Oakland, is a Native Son and was born 
 at Illinois Town, Placer County, California, March 30, 
 1865. He is the son of L. M. Clement of Oakland, who 
 for many years past has been the Chief Consulting En- 
 gineer for the Pacific Improvement Company. Mr. 
 Clement received his education in the public schools of 
 Oakland and prepared himself for his life work of Civil 
 Engineer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 
 He is a great lover of athletic sports, and this, together 
 with his genial, whole-souled manner, has made him a 
 favorite with the young men of his own age. After 
 finishing his work at the Institute of Technology, he 
 entered the employ of the Pacific Improvement Com- 
 pany and spent several years in the construction of cable 
 roads in San Francisco, and was in charge of the work 
 during the construction of the Telegraph Avenue Elec- 
 tric Road. He is a gentleman of exceptional ability, and is sure to rank with the best 
 in his profession of Engineering. 
 
 In spite of the fact that election day is still far distant, and that delegates to 
 conventions are not yet even named, there are certain nominations which it would 
 seem must naturally go to given aspirants. Of course, the appearance of certainty 
 in this connection should not lull the friends of such fortunates to sleep, but should 
 rather encourage them to make sure of that which seems inevitable. Probably 
 the nomination which is most merited and therefore seems most natural and certain, 
 is that of the Hon. T. B. McFar land to succeed himself as Associate Justice of the 
 Supreme Court. His career as a judge has been marked by a rugged bravery, 
 which, coupled with his experience and learning, have given peculiar force and 
 value to his opinions. He has passed the noon-day of life, and this will probably 
 be the last time he will ever ask office or preferment from his party or the people. 
 While he has grown gray in the service, his vigor remains unimpaired. The im- 
 pression prevails among men who keep in touch with public opinion, that the 
 nomination of Judge McFarland would add great strength to the ticket. He is well 
 known throughout the State, and, better still, enjoys to a high degree the confi- 
 dence of his associates and the profession generally. One of the strongest testi- 
 monials that can be given to a judge who has served for a long period upon the 
 bench, is that he is poor. The salary of our judiciary is wholly inadequate to the 
 services performed, and Judge McFarland, although a man of frugal habits,, is 
 probably not worth a dollar more to-day than when he first took seat upon the 
 bench. — 5". F. Wave.

OLOMON, in all his glory of pomp and circumstance, was not better arrayed than his 
 §\ followers in temple building in the potentialities of Faith, Hope and Charity. Our tra- 
 dition leads us back to the construction of the Temple. The succession is both opera- 
 tive and speculative, and the searcher for truth will early arrive at the conclusion that 
 the beginning of all craftship is found in the beautiful ceremonies of the Ancient 
 Mysteries. Death and resurrection, destruction and rehabilitation, corruption and 
 were as surely taught by the Egyptians and Elusinians, and "the tribes beyond the 
 the unexplored wilds of India, as under the civilization of the New Dispensation. 
 And the re-incarnating belief of modern theosophy is but a rhapsody of thought that comes 
 by mysterious agency from the belief of ages agone. When Solomon was the wisest man and prince on 
 earth the Ancient Mysteries flourished. They were patronized by the great and learned long before David 
 was informed by the Lord that his unborn son should build Him an house in Jerusalem wherein the Shekinah 
 should forever dwell. It is fair to assume that Solomon was a patron of those mysteries which find a 
 counterpart in the ceremonies of our lodge, chapter, council, and bodies of the Scottish Rite. So, our specu- 
 lative minds may readily make a sure foundation of the stones that were " hewn, squared and numbered in 
 the quarry," and of " the cedars that were felled in the forests of Lebanon." The lapse of time from the 
 dedication of the Temple to the adoption of our beautiful, thoughtful and helpful speculative Masonry, was 
 a long operative period, around which was thrown mystery and exclusiveness. Succeeding the dawn of 
 Christianity, and through the dark and middle ages, architecture was entirely confided to churchly keeping. 
 The Monks not only designed and planned, but constructed as well, and the earlier edifices that still are the 
 admiration of the world were their handiwork. In the fourteenth century the demand for operative Masonry 
 was so great that laymen were instructed as apprentices, and, in time, becoming fellows and masters, they 
 organized into bands or societies and journeyed from country to country, erecting cathedrals, abbeys, castles 
 and citadels, which still survive the ravages of time and war. These wandering architects and builders had 
 a form or ceremony of initiation familiarly like some things we know. It is of record that in a German 
 " hutten," or lodge, of operative stone masons, in the fifteenth century, a cutter's table was in the center of 
 the room, upon which was a copy of the holy writings, together with the workman's tools, the square and 
 compass. So they builded and guilded until the desire to participate in the pleasures and advantages of the 
 lodge grew apace, and the doors were swung open for the admission of those unskilled in the workmanship 
 of the craft. Thus operative Masonry was succeeded by speculative, and for two centuries we have been 
 " speculative Masons only." As the fraternity multiplied in numbers and developed in influence, the grand 
 characteristics of our Order became landmarks that point a good beginning, a present essence and a future 
 being. "And the greatest of these characteristics is Charity." Masonry is not an enforced benefit. Its 
 benefactions, and remembrances, and charities are purely voluntary Thus is it practical in its helpfulness; 
 and, from such impelling motives of brotherly love is woven the mighty fabric in every State and Territory 
 of the Republic, co-existent in good fellowship with our craftship in every land beneath the sun. " Charity 
 begins at home," and most truly and eloquently does Masonic good will and universal benevolence find 
 expression in the erection and maintenance of "Homes" for our unfortunate brethren and their families. 
 New York, Kentucky, Ohio, and other States, have established their Homes in permanency, and are shower- 
 ing blessings by the wayside. California Masonry began its good work in "the days of old, the days of 
 gold," and in that rugged and romantic beginning the characteristic of charity was so firmly established, 
 that during the half century of its praiseworthy life the millions it has dispensed for charity have, in the 
 aggregate, exceeded the total charitable expenditures of many of the older States. The desire to do still 
 more, and become broader in the sphere of usefulness, suggested the erection of the Widows' and Orphans' 
 Home at Decoto, the completion of which is assured by the success of the magnificent Masonic Festival. 
 A contemplation of the unparalleled record of California Masonry led to the thought and desire of celebrat- 
 ing the semi-centennial of the Order in this State by a compilation of its glories and efforts into a volume to 
 be preserved in the archives of lodge and home, as a memento of vigorous growth and development. So it 
 was that from the suggestion has risen the monumental undertaking entitled " Fifty Years of Masonry in 
 California" (a Masonic History), a work which, for scope of fraternity research, painstaking effort, artistic 
 endeavor, beauty of conception, and elegance of production, has not been equalled in this or any other 
 country. Major Edwin A. Sherman, the venerable Secretary of the Masonic Veteran Association of the 
 Pacific Coast, is the Editor, and it is issued in monthly parts. It is sold only by subscription and the edition 
 is limited. This work is published by the -well-known printing and publishing firm of Geo. Spaulding & Co., 
 414 Clay Street, San Francisco, California.

THE LADIES' CALIFORNIA DRILL CORPS. 
 
 When the idea of the Masonic Festival was first projected, the daughters of the members 
 of California Commandery, No. i, K. T., immediately enthused, and were speedily organized 
 as a Drill Corps to give an Exhibition Drill at the Pavilion, Friday evening, May 13th, 1898, 
 in aid of the Masonic Widows' and Orphans' Home. 
 
 The Corps is elegantly uniformed, and instead of being equipped with sword and buckler, 
 each young lady will carry an American flag. The tactics of the drill are new, the evolutions 
 are brilliant and captivating. 
 
 Mrs. S.J. Ewing, Captain; Miss Bessie Warren, First Lieutenant; Miss Martha Korbell, 
 Second Lieutenant; Mrs. J. F. Clark, Secretary; Miss Josephine Hromada, Commissary.

 W. He is not only well 
 known in this city in con- 
 nection with his present 
 business, but as former co- 
 partner with Mr. J. P. Gal- 
 lagher in the New Western Hotel. His many friends in Eldorado and Amador Counties, this 
 State, and Portland, Oregon, all testify to his integrity and popularity. Mr. J. J. Sheridan, 
 although not a Native of this State, has been located herejfor a number of years. He is well 
 and favorably known, not only in this City but also in Tuolumne County, and Portland, Ore- 
 gon, and is a member of Portland Lodge No. 142, B. P. O. E. 
 
 The success these gentlemen have achieved since forming a co-partnership in December, 
 1897, is a sufficient guarantee of the esteem in which both are held by their friends and 
 patrons. 
 
 H. W. HUNSAKER, M.D. 
 
 Dr. Hunsaker was born in Contra Costa County, 
 January 22, 1863. In 1887 he entered the office of the 
 distinguished specialist, Frank Cornwall, M. D., and at 
 the same time matriculated at the California Medical 
 College, from which he was graduated in 1890. 
 
 While usually known as a general practitioner, Doctor 
 Hunsaker 's long association with Dr. Cornwall gave him 
 a wide acquaintance with the special field devoted to the 
 eye, ear, nose and throat. 
 
 He is at present Professor of Osteology and Lecturer 
 on Splanchnology in the California Medical College, and 
 is, of course, a member of the State and local Eclectic 
 Medical Societies. He is a member of Pacific Parlor, N. S. 
 G. W., and has been its Examining Physician for a year 
 and a half.

 Osteopathy is a science that treats diseases without drugs, by skillfully adjusting the bones, muscles, 
 and ligaments of our anatomy, so as to relieve friction or tension from the nerves, blood-vessels and lym- 
 phatics, so nature can carry on her work as the Creator has ordained. To be able to treat successfully, 
 one has to have a thorough knowledge of Anatomy, Physiology, and the chemical composition of .the body 
 and be drilled in Osteopathic Philosophy.

 A FEW REMARKS. 
 
 DONATIONS — It was the original intention to publish in this work the names of all who 
 have made donations of whatsoever nature to the Festival, but as donations 
 were still coming in as this book went to press, it was considered unwise and 
 unjust to publish only a partial list. A complete list of the donations will be 
 issued by the Executive Committee in their official report at the close of the 
 Festival, and will be widely distributed, not only in California, but all over 
 the United States as well. All, without exception, who have contributed 
 towards the support of the Widows' and Orphans' Home, will be given the 
 credit due them. 
 
 THANKS — Are due to the Overland Monthly and the Berkeley Evening World for engrav- 
 ings of the State University, kindly loaned for this work, and to the 
 Stationery Department of the Southern Pacific Company for some engravings 
 of California Scenery; to Geo. Spaulding & Co. for engravings from " Fifty 
 Years of Masonry," and to the business community who have so generously 
 supported this work. 
 Krror.— In the Bazaar Booth of Cal. Commandery, on page 199, the names of Mrs. X,ogan, Mrs. Dorn and 
 Mrs. Batkin were inadvertantly omitted.
