The festival of the Jewish Passover com- mences to-day and inaugurates what will be an eight-day season of festivity in every Jewish family. The celebration Is an an- cient one. and its power is on the increase among the Hebrews. Its antiquity dates back to the historic exodus from Egypt, and the tender associations wliich cluster around it have endeared it to the children of Israel in a peculiar manner. The Passover celebration is intended to commemorate the deliverance of the He- brews from the bondage of the Egyptians, and their preservation in the desert by means of the miraculous manna, lt is a peculiarity of the Jewish religion that every little feature of the events which their cele- brations are meant to commemorate, has something to accord with itin the festival. This is specially true of the Passover feast, the manna and the searching for it, for instance, forming an important part of the ceremony. With this general sentiment is embodied the name of the great lawgiver, Moses, who is the special hero of the celebration. This is the only festival in which Moses shares the honor, and his name is insepar- ably associated in the Jewish mind with the Pissover feast. The festivity has thus somewhat of the characterof a combination of our Thanksgiving day and Fourth of July. Though special services are held in all the synagogues, the real center of the feast is the family. It is looked on as a festivity peculiarly bound up with Jewish family life, and every Hebrew loves to celebrate it among his own friends. Although the synagogue services only last two days, strict families prolong the celebration throughout the entire week. During this time the only food partaken ot is matzoths of unleavened bread. Tokens of regard are passed from one member of the family to the other, and no one Is forgotten. Even the poorest Hebrew families observe this custom, and these gifts of good will, trilling, perhaps, In value, mean as much as more expensive presents. The children are remembered with special presents. One called the matzoth prize it is the aim of each of the children to get. Be- tween a pillow and the upholstery oi the chair or sofa upon which the father sits is hid a matzoth. The children search for it and the successful one carries off the prize. Special services will be held in all the synagogues of the city. THE POND CLUB. It Declares Itself ._•_ .in»t Corrupt mid Atxre-ilve Trusts. The members of the Pond Democratic Club installed their newly elected officers last evening. These are: J. J. Meeban, President; Dr. XV. D. McCarthy, First and and J.

The Finance Committee reported the funds of the club to be in a most promising condition, and that the treasury warranted the club in taking an active and leading part in Uie coming campaign. Pursuant to a motion Frederick Kaufman, M. F. Don- leavy, E. P. E. Troy, M. C. Gorliam and Dennis Buckley were appointed a com- mittee to secure Metropolitan Hall for mass- meetings. E. P. E. Troy introduced resolutions, viewing with "profound alarm the vast ag- gregation of capital now being gathered together for the purpose of making war upon their fellow-citizens engaged in tho various manufacturing and other indus- tries," and expressing the sentiment that "when the people of California shall elect an honest Legislature, free and uiitram- meled by any corporation or monopolistic connections, and an Executive officer who shall fill his office with the same honest, in- tegrity, and fearless, incorruptible and un- biased motive " with which the present occupant of the Chief Executive office of this city has performed all of his obliga- tions duties to the citizens of San Fran- cisco, then only shall the people of Califor- nia feel safe from the overwhelming power of corrupt and aggressive trusts."-.* The resolutions were adopted, and Fred- erick Callundan moved and it was voted to Indorse the decided stand of Mayor Pond in his vetoes.

The poultice paving companies are at loggerheads over work in Oakland. Some time ago a new company made a lower bid than the hitherto monopoly concern for work to be done on Eighth street, between Franklin and Washington, and was awarded the contract by the city government, but the rival company quietly went to work and obtained the consent of the majority of property-owners to do the work by private contract, and although the matter was car- ried to court, the lowest bidder was de- feated. The new company then secured the contract to pave Broadway for one block between Seventh and Eighth streets, and had the work about one half done when it was served, on Thursday, with an in- junction claiming au infringement on the patent of the rival concern in the matter of heating the bitumen by steam. " The new company contends that the payment of the royally would compel it to raise its price for putting down the bitumen, and the royalty would practically have to bo paid by tue property-owners, lt claims that the so-called patents are invalid and useless, and that the Uuited States Circuit Court will so decide. A judgment for the defendant in the suit of J. W. Pearson of Oakland against Louis Messmer of Los Augeles was rendered by Judge Ellsworth yesterday.

She had occasion to take something out of her basket when the mouse appeared, and in her fright she let her basket drop lrom her hand and it fell overboard. In it was her commutation ticket. At the meeting of the Improvement Asso- ciation on Thursday evening, Dr. J. T. .Mc- Lean called attention to the fact that Oak- land, Stockton, San J nse and otlier cities of the State were being considered by Con- gress iv the matter of public buildings, and lie did not sco why Alameda should not have an appropriation. A committee was appointed, consisting of Dr. .McLean, Messrs. .Vaymirp, Dartlett, Payne and Uirsfeldt, to prepare a petition for an ap- propriation. Captain B. R. Thompson, proprietor of the Artesian Water-works, has given or- ders not to lay any more pipes or to in- crease the service in any respect. This will work a hardship on many property- owners of streets on which mains are not laid, and such streets are in all parts of th»*city. For some time applications have been made almost daily at the oilice of the water-works fur an extension of the serv- ice, but have been met with positive re- fusals. In some cases the erection of houses dependent upon the laying of the pipes and the contemplated improvements were abandoned, and unless there Is a change in the policy of Captain Thompson, the progress of Alameda will be seriously retarded. lie states that he has not been properly treated by the City Trustees. The rate., as fixed by tiiem, give a return of but 7 !_ per cent on the capital invested in the plant, and he thinks that he is en- titled to at least 8 per cent. He has been devoting the income from the plant to its enlargement, and he thinks that it is time that it should pay him something. Berkeley. Two West Berkeley families have secured cars to remove their plunder to the hills to escape the impending doom according to the Wool worth prophecy. They will go to Oakdale or Sauta Rosa. A crowd of freshmen invaded the streets of Berkeley on Thursday night, having in their charge four sophomores, whom they tossed in blankets after filling their hair with glue. The -'asset boys, injured by the team which killed John Brown, are recovering slowly. The smallest, Lucien, or "Baby," as lie is generally called, is able to sit up, but is not yet able to walk. August has re- covered consciousness, but his condition is still dangerous. Little Charley Brown has entirely recovered. -,0-N-COMS DRILLED. Major Sulli*. .111 Again Warn* the Absent Shirkers. About 70 per cent of the non-coms of the First lufautry Segment, _.. G. C, assem- bled last evening at the Market-street armory for Instruction under Major Sulli- van. Guard was mounted twice, with a different set of officers on each occasion. First Sergeants bringind on the details and also going through the performance of in- specting them before doing so. The first guard mount was very sloppily done, almost every one being guilty of some act of commission or omission which tended to mar the ceremony when considered as a whole. The second attempt was a great improvement and yet fair only. After this, the corporals were practiced in the posting of sentries and the taking out of reliefs, which was not badly done. The roll of non-coms was called after the drill by the Sergeant-Major, and comment- ing upon the absentees, the Major gave warning that upon another failure in this respect the warrants of the shirkers would be revoked. But the Major lias warned be- fore, and there Is a desire among the non- coms, representing about 70 per ceut, to have some of these warnings fulfilled. Progr.-- E-tlm-trs and Warrants.

A Circular Against the Use of Intoxicants. -. ... -, Eastern Boads Accept the Orange and Lemon Sates— Berkeley's Half-Hour Trains. Senator Stanford's Party. President Corbin of the Reading-Penn- sylvania Railroad has taken, in a circular recently issued for the information and government of employes,' a firm stand against the ~ use of intoxicating liquor by men in the employ of the company, whether on or off duty. This edict applies with equal force to every man ' in the i employ of the Reading system from division to flag- men. After reviewing the evils that arise from an excessive indulgence, and intimat- ing that many accidents on : the road are caused by the use of , intoxicants, Mr. Cor- bin's circular concludes: All Superintendents will be held strictly re- sponsible (or the enforcement of this rule re- gaialngihe us_ ol intoxicating liquor by em- ployes. Men who violate It must be promptly discharged and proof that a man goes Inside a drinking place while ou duty will he ample evi- dence to warrant his Immediate dismissal. Men known to drink to excess or to freqtientdrinktiig Places while on duly must be dlscbaiged. When employing new men strict Inquiry should be made as iotheir habits ami preference always fiven to those who do uot use intoxicating liquor, leads of departments must keep Informed as to the habits of men uuder tlictn and make sure that these rules are sli icilyobserved, \u0084_ The order has been much criticized, not only by trainmen but by high officials of the road, many claiming that in issuing such an order President Cur bin exceeds his authority and that he has naught to do with men while off duty. President Cor- bin was once a railroad clerk and his bitter- ness against the use of liquor was prompted by seeing many of the clerks in his depart- ment come to their desks in a "muddled " condition. His first official act after elec- tion as President of the road was to issue an order forbidding the use of liquor by clerks during office hours. Past week a general order was issued applying to all men employed on the Reading system. BERKELEY'S HALF-HOUR TIIAI-.S. It is rumored that should the town of Berkeley pass an ordinance limiting the speed of tho local trains to eight miles per hour, the Southern Pacific Company will retaliate by discontinuing the half-hour trains. This rumor was substantiated after an interview yesterday afternoon with Mr. Fillmore, General Superintendent of the Southern Pacific lie said that he did not think the people of Berkeley would work iv opposition to their own interest by pass- ing such an ordinance. "But if such a course should be pursued," he continued, "the company does not propose to increase I its train service to please the people of that towu, though should we take oil the half- hour trains it would be iv no spirit of retaliation. We simply cannot make the time if our speed is limited to eight miles an hour— that is, we cannot make the time without putting on more trains, and as I said before, that is entirely out of the question." THE FKEIGHT COMMITTEE. The Freight Committee of the Transcon- tinental Association held two sessions at the Palace Hotel yesterday. Everything was reported as harmonious and no war- talk was indulged in. Commencing on Monday last, this committee has held two sessions every day, and contrary to the geueral expectation, at least another day will be required to complete its labors. Yesterday afternoon a telegram was re- ceived by Chairman Smith of the commit- tee from A. P. Blanchard of the Central Traffic Association announcing the accept- ance by his association of the . l 23 orange and lemon rales to points east of Chicago and St. Louis. Bates on mixed car-loads ot vegetables and oranges were also con- sidered at the session aud fixed at $1 12% to Missouri River and Sl _.'. to Chicago. At to-day's meeting rates on hardware and wool will be considered, and no doubt some reduction* will be made in the present rales. LAKGEST OF THE SEASON.

PASSOVER WEEK.The Jewish Festival Commences

This Day.

. The festival of the Jewish Passover com-mences to-day and inaugurates what willbe an eight-day season of festivity in everyJewish family. The celebration Is an an-cient one. and its power is on the increaseamong the Hebrews. Its antiquity datesback to the historic exodus from Egypt,and the tender associations wliich clusteraround ithave endeared itto the childrenof Israel in a peculiar manner.

The Passover celebration is intended tocommemorate the deliverance of the He-brews from the bondage of the Egyptians,and their preservation in the desert bymeans of the miraculous manna, ltis apeculiarity of the Jewish religion that everylittle feature of the events which their cele-brations are meant to commemorate, hassomething to accord with itin the festival.

This is specially true of the Passoverfeast, the manna and the searching for it,for instance, forming an important part ofthe ceremony.

With this general sentiment is embodiedthe name of the great lawgiver, Moses,who is the special hero of the celebration.This is the only festival in which Mosesshares the honor, and his name is insepar-ably associated in the Jewish mind withthe Pissover feast. The festivity has thussomewhat of the characterof a combinationof our Thanksgiving day and Fourth ofJuly.

Though special services are held in all thesynagogues, the real center of the feast isthe family. Itis looked on as a festivitypeculiarly bound up with Jewish familylife, and every Hebrew loves to celebrate itamong his own friends.

Although the synagogue services onlylast two days, strict families prolong thecelebration throughout the entire week.During this time the only food partaken otis matzoths

—of unleavened bread.

Tokens of regard are passed from onemember of the family to the other, and noone Is forgotten. Even the poorest Hebrewfamilies observe this custom, and thesegifts of good will, trilling,perhaps, In value,mean as much as more expensive presents.

The children are remembered withspecialpresents. One called the matzoth prize it isthe aim of each of the children to get. Be-tween a pillowand the upholstery oi thechair or sofa upon which the father sits ishid a matzoth. The children search for itand the successful one carries off the prize.

Special services will be held in all thesynagogues of the city.

Atthe monthly meeting of the Board ofHealth last evening Health Officer McLeanreported that there were twelve deaths dur-ing the month of March, which gave an an-nual death rate of 14.4 per 1000, on an esti-mated population of 10,000.

Atthe meeting of the Improvement Asso-ciation on Thursday evening, Dr. J. T. .Mc-Lean called attention to the fact that Oak-land, Stockton, San Jnse and otlier cities ofthe State were being considered by Con-gress iv the matter of public buildings, andlie did not sco why Alameda should nothave an appropriation. Acommittee wasappointed, consisting of Dr. .McLean,Messrs. .Vaymirp, Dartlett, Payne andUirsfeldt, to prepare a petition for an ap-propriation.

Captain B. R. Thompson, proprietor ofthe Artesian Water-works, has given or-ders not to lay any more pipes or to in-crease the service in any respect. Thiswill work a hardship on many property-owners of streets on which mains are notlaid, and such streets are in all parts ofth»*city. For some time applications havebeen made almost daily at the oilice of thewater-works fur an extension of the serv-ice, but have been met with positive re-fusals. In some cases the erection ofhouses dependent upon the laying of thepipes and the contemplated improvementswere abandoned, and unless there Is achange in the policy of Captain Thompson,the progress of Alameda will be seriouslyretarded. lie states that he has not beenproperly treated by the City Trustees.The rate., as fixed by tiiem, give a returnof but 7!_ per cent on the capital investedin the plant, and he thinks that he is en-titled to at least 8 per cent. He has been

devoting the income from the plant to itsenlargement, and he thinks that it is timethat itshould pay him something.

-,0-N-COMS DRILLED.Major Sulli*..111 Again Warn* the Absent

Shirkers.About 70 per cent of the non-coms of the

First lufautry Segment, _.. G. C, assem-bled last evening at the Market-streetarmory for Instruction under Major Sulli-van. Guard was mounted twice, with adifferent set of officers on each occasion.First Sergeants bringind on the details andalso going through the performance of in-specting them before doing so.

The first guard mount was very sloppilydone, almost every one being guilty of someact ofcommission or omission which tendedto mar the ceremony when considered as awhole. The second attempt was a greatimprovement and yet fair only. After this,the corporals were practiced in the postingof sentries and the taking out of reliefs,which was not badly done.

The roll of non-coms was called after thedrill by the Sergeant-Major, and comment-ing upon the absentees, the Major gavewarning that upon another failure in thisrespect the warrants of the shirkers wouldbe revoked. But the Major lias warned be-fore, and there Is a desire among the non-coms, representing about 70 per ceut, tohave some of these warnings fulfilled.

ALONG THE RAIL.

A Circular Against the Use ofIntoxicants.

-. ... -,

Eastern Boads Accept the Orange and LemonSates— Berkeley's Half-Hour Trains.

Senator Stanford's Party.

President Corbin of the Reading-Penn-sylvania Railroad has taken, in a circularrecently issued for the information andgovernment of employes,' a firm standagainst the

~use of intoxicating liquor by

men in the employ of the company, whetheron or off duty. This edict applies withequal force to every man

'in the iemploy of

the Reading system from division to flag-men. After reviewing the evils that arisefrom an excessive indulgence, and intimat-ing that many accidents on :the road arecaused by the use of ,intoxicants, Mr. Cor-bin's circular concludes:

AllSuperintendents will be held strictly re-sponsible (or the enforcement of this rule re-gaialngihe us_ ol intoxicating liquor by em-ployes. Men who violate It must be promptlydischarged and proof that a man goes Inside adrinking place while ou duty will he ample evi-dence to warrant his Immediate dismissal. Menknown to drink toexcess or to freqtientdrinktiigPlaces while on dulymust be dlscbaiged. Whenemploying new men strict Inquiry should bemade as iotheir habits ami preference always

fiven to those who do uot use intoxicatingliquor,leads of departments must keep Informed as to

the habits of men uuder tlictn and make surethat these rules are sliicilyobserved, \u0084_

The order has been much criticized, notonly by trainmen but by high officials ofthe road, many claiming that in issuingsuch an order President Cur bin exceeds hisauthority and that he has naught to dowith men while off duty. President Cor-bin was once a railroad clerk and his bitter-ness against the use of liquor was promptedby seeing many of the clerks in his depart-ment come to their desks in a "muddled

"condition. His first official act after elec-tion as President of the road was to issuean order forbidding the use of liquor byclerks during office hours. Past week ageneral order was issued applying to allmen employed on the Reading system.

BERKELEY'S HALF-HOUR TIIAI-.S.It is rumored that should the town of

Berkeley pass an ordinance limiting thespeed of tho local trains to eight miles perhour, the Southern Pacific Company willretaliate by discontinuing the half-hourtrains. This rumor was substantiated afteran interview yesterday afternoon with Mr.Fillmore, General Superintendent of theSouthern Pacific lie said that he did notthink the people of Berkeley would workiv opposition to their own interest by pass-ing such an ordinance. "But if such acourse should be pursued," he continued,"the company does not propose to increase Iits train service to please the people of thattowu, though should we take oil the half-hour trains it would be iv no spirit ofretaliation. We simply cannot make thetime if our speed is limited to eight milesan hour— that is, we cannot make the timewithout putting on more trains, and as Isaid before, that is entirely out of thequestion."

THE FKEIGHT COMMITTEE.The Freight Committee of the Transcon-

tinental Association held two sessions atthe Palace Hotel yesterday. Everythingwas reported as harmonious and no war-talk was indulged in. Commencing onMonday last, this committee has held twosessions every day, and contrary to thegeueral expectation, at least another daywill be required to complete its labors.Yesterday afternoon a telegram was re-ceived by Chairman Smith of the commit-tee from A.P. Blanchard of the CentralTraffic Association announcing the accept-ance by his association of the .l23 orangeand lemon rales to points east of Chicagoand St. Louis. Bates on mixed car-loadsot vegetables and oranges were also con-sidered at the session aud fixed at $1 12%to Missouri River and Sl _.'. to Chicago. Atto-day's meeting rates on hardware andwool willbe considered, and no doubt somereduction* willbe made in the present rales.
