IMPRISONED DROP OF WATER.
A Pebble for Which • Larjfe Sums
Have Beisn Offered. "¦_¦-.. .'"'.'¦
A remarkable pebble, which was picked
up somewhere tn Egypt, that land of dark
mysteries, is in the possession of a well
known lapidist on Twelfth street, near
Walnut. The stone is translucent, and
a.% a casual glance looks like an ordinary
seashore pebble. It is about half the size
of a walnut and oval In shape. When the
stone is held to the light its remarkable
peculiarity is beheld. Inside Is a drop of
water that circles- about the Interior.
How It got there Is a mystery that na
ture alone can solve. The surface of the
stone Is perfect, but there is no doubt of
the hollow Interior. The pebble is only
Interesting as a curiosity, but many
wealthy Institutions have offered good
round sums of money for It. The owner,
however, will never let it get out of his
possession, as it was given him by an

Rev. Pet*r C. Yorke. pastor of St.
Peter's, preached the sermon, and in part
he paid:
"Th*" priest represents not himself alone,
but the person of Christ. He stands as
the medium between God and man. This
is the foundation for the respect and hon
or that Is gi\>?n to the priest, and that ie
why his people call him by that most ten
der name. 'Father.' It is well to think of
thepe things on an occasion like this,
when we are colled together to listen to
the firet mas^ from one who went out
from this parish as a student and now re
turns to you as n priest."
Rev. Father O'Malley said mass at St.
Patrick's. The edifice was also crowded,
many of the congregation finding it neces
sary to stand during the impressive cere
monies. The young priest was assisted
by Rev. Father Collopy as deacon. Rev.

. Mrs. Hall .'was one of the most promi
nent members .of .the. Cosmos Club, the
Twentieth Century Club and the Ebeil
Society; «. As a member of the two former
organizations she was most intimately
connected with the arrangements for' the
day at the -"at home" of Mrs, F. M.
Smith. She was one of those who was to
dance the minuet in the colonial costume.
She was one of those who was to assist
Mrs. Smith in receiving for the day and
was a part of the dinner party and the
evening reception party at Arbor Villa.
She was also a member of St.. Paul's
Church. wa& greatly interested ' in its
enoir, and.haa arranged to entertain the
singers at ; . her home immediately at the
close of tho midnight services last even
ing. ...
All of these events had been too much
of a tax upon her strength and she col
lapsed on her way to the church.
Death came before, the dawn, ami when
Mrs. F. M. Smith received the sad news
sac at once canceled all of her engage
ments for the day, postponed her elabor
ately prepared receptions and did every
thing in her power to show her keen re
gret at the death of her friend and asso
ciate. The pretty dance with the wonder
ful costumes that had been prepared, the
elaborate dinner, the evening reception,
all were postponed, and Mr. and Mrs.
Smith received but very few friends and
those in the most Informal manner. And
so death laid its.heaw hand alike upon
a happy family and the pulse of Oakland
society, at the same time. .:

This Is a <n«ition that should interest *v«»ry
one. It is a blot upon our fair land— a symp-
tom of governmental ill-health. The right
laws would act as gceedily upen It aa Hostet-
ter's Stomach Bitters does upon constipation,
or dyspepsia. They would quickly clear it out
and restore healthy purity; and this Is Just
what the Bitters does for the human constitu-

Indigestion, biliousness and liver trouble.
