Missions of the East ft IB Upr Philibert Termoi prelate ofhia holiness the Pope is in the city on an apostolic mission and is stopping at the residence of the clergy of the Church ot Notre Dame dej Victoirea 535 Bosh street The ditlnpiished visitor Wis one of the passengers on the steamer Oceanic which arriTed fromthe Orient a lew days ago Since the beginning of last year be has been lelriog into the creeds and customs of all the oriental nations and at the same time has been investigating the workings of all the Catholic missions in the countries through which he has traversed Since he left Rome on his present trip he has visited Egypt Arabia Ceylon India and every locality in the Orient where the missionaries of the Roman Catholic Church are laboring to supplant the ancient heathenism with Catholicism His investigations have been prod active of much knowledge and information not generally known to the Western world and the vofuminoos reports which he is now engaged in writing are expected to form a valuable acquisition to the litera tore of the Vatican Monsignor Terraoz belongs to the family of the Pope and lives at tbt Vatican when in Rome He also participates jn all the ceremonies at the Vatican He has the rank of a Bishop and wears the same vestments excepting the chain and cross It way De explained that the prelates at the Vatican are appointed from among the clergy It is an honor that is only conferred In recognition of great ability and distinguished effort in church wort or religious literature Aly particnla field is the study of missions of all kinds said Monsignor Ter mpz when seen yesterday but particularly the missions of the Roman Catholic Chnreh Incidentally the character and customs of various civilizations encountered in my journey jass beneath my notice and I find that an interesting study I left Marseilles France on the9th of January 1833 and traveled to Alexandria in Egypt Aden in Arabia and thence to the island of Ceylon where I made my first stay Ceylon is most interesting I epent three months on the island Tbe people as yon know are Sinhalese and Tamouls Tie latter are the descendants of the conquering tribes from Southern India and occupy the richest portion of tbe territory Through tbem the Buddhist faith has obtained a strong hold on the entire people though Christianity is making rapid progress through the energies of the French missionaries In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries Ceylon was Christianized to an extent by St Francis Xaner the apostle to the Indies as he was called He died and was buried by the way at Sancian in Japan and recent investigations have tended to bring to light many descendants of native Japanese who were converted by that great missionary In Ceylon to day there are a large number of Catholic missions They are all French missions except one That is an Italian mission at Canby Oat of a population of several millions we can count between 400000 and 500000 Catholic converts as a result of the work undertaken by St Francis Xavier and prosecuted by the missionaries since his time From Ceylon I went up into India and visited all tbe states and principalities Letters of introduction to the various rajahs and other native princes afforded every opportunity to study the work of the missions throughout the country I then went up to the highest accessible points in the Himalayas India is a peculiar field for missionary work The races are mixed and Brahminism which is the most invulnerable to tbe influences of Christianity of all the eastern creeds has a strong hold oh the people A fact not generally known is that fresh sects of tbe Brahmins are born at tbe rate of from eight to seventeen a year and as the theology is very complex the missionaries find it hard work to combat against it The great pertinacity with which the Brahmins cling to their faith has seriously retarded the growth of Christianity in India and it must be admitted that Catholicism is still in its Infancy in that great country in North and South Burmah which I visited the Catholic missions have made better progress than any of the other missionary bodies The great bulk of the missionary work in the Roman Catholic Church is done by a society known as the iPropogation of the Faith Society This and the other Catholic societies collect about Jl000000 a year for tbe purpose of spreading the Gospel in the Asiatic field The reformed religions spend about 5X000000 for tbe same purpose but tbe Catholics have met with better success for the simple reason that the priests are single men and not being encumbered With families they are able to penetrate deeper into the country and suffer hardships which the Protestant missionaries would Jiardly care to inflict on their families Throughout the various eastern countries there are scattered 1600 Protestant missionaries who have made about 36000 converts The missionaries of the Catholic Ctiure number between 500 and 000 and tneyldalq 1000000 converts Without dwelling on comparisons let me say that all the churches are doing a great and noble work Alt are working conscienti ously to eBect that one great aim

French church the design of a Lazarist missionary monk named Favier From there he went north to the great wall of Chins close under which be found a Trappist monastery Tbe Chinese when once converted he said are very zealous in their devotions and become bard workers in the field In the north of China they have undertaken tbe cultivation of grapes and thanks to this you may now drink missionary wine in the heart of the imperial capital From Peking Mgr Termoz went by way of Manchoona and Corea to Japan He saw the Japanese fleet land its troops at Chemuipoo and says he was struck with the military manner in which the ceremony was carried out Japans army he says is far superior to that of China The great trouble with China he said is the lack ot patriotism among the people In Japan every mothers son is steeped in patriotism In China a Viceroy and a number of soldiers are hired to defend the country They might be so many Hessians for all the patriotism they possess While in Japan he visited Nagasaki the center of the French missions in the islands and Tokio the hotbed of Shintie ism Buddhisifa and the other ancient creeds allot which furnished him material for investigations of a most interesting nature Before leaving the Orient he visited the Phillipine islands where hesays there is a Christian population of some 7000000 and a Mohammedan population of about 1500000 From here the distinguished visitor will go north and visit the missions throughout the northern part of the United States and Canada On bis arrival in New York he will sail for Europe and expects to be

That No Hfrm Has Come to tbe Missing Woman The most diligent search msde by the relatives of missing 31ft Isaac Oderkirk failed to develop yesterday the slightest trace as to her whereabouts When she left the Grand Hotel on Sunday afternoon she left not the faintest clew which might lead to a discovery of her present whereabouts Both her husband and her son returned to their rooms at 804 Geary street last night thoroughly worn out in body and spirit A Jong days hunt bad ended fruitlessly and they were forced to seek rest with disappointment in their hearts which added to tbe burden of their physical weariness So far as the police are concerned the detectives who have been working on tbe case are as much in tbe dark as are the near relatives of Mrs Oderkirk They have followed several clews which have developed from numerous rumors circulated with regard to her disappearance but thus far with as little success as have attended tbe efforts of the son and tho husband Yesterday afternoon Detective Gibson went to Oakland in searcn of the missing woman A report had been received that she was across the bay but the officers investigations came to naught Another story which gained a foothold in the ponce office was that Mrs Oderkirk had been seen to take the train for Los Angeles on Sunday night Whether there is anything in this report the police did not ascertain Detective Bohen who has been working on the case said last night there was no assurance that tbe woman was identified in tnis instance The police are confident that she has met with no foul play or violent treatment in any way They do not believe thai Mrs Oderkirk is faraway and so far as Bohen is concerned he is satisfied with a theory in the case which he does not desire to make public While keeping his own counsel regarding his views of the disappearance the detective scouts the idea that anything serious has happened to the missing woman Herbert Freese a teamster in the employ ot George Pippy had a bad fright on Monday at 2 a and he attributes his scare to Mrs Oderkirk He says that he has never been scared by a woman before and would not have been on this occasion had she not left her legitimate sphere as ministering angel He was laboring in his own sphere delivering milk to the clients of his politico military employer and nothing was further from his mind than interference from one of the gentler sex in fact there is no record of their having made a special claim to the rank of milk deliverers Freese was delivering milk on Linden avenue near Buchanan street and going up the back yard ot one house intent upon placing tne Pippy lacteal on tbe steps when suddenly a women about 40 years of age sprang out upon him brandishing a large table knife Freese beat a retreat and called for a parley His feminine assailant asked Are you the man who is following me The milkman denied the interrogatoy impeachment and having caught his second wind saw that the lady was a trifle off She explained that a man had been following her and that be had got a buggy to try and overtake her so she lied into the back yard it was the noise of the Pippy milk chariot which made the woman think she had been overtaken by her pursuer She quieted down when Freese assured her that he was a peaceable man and not even a member of tbe National Guard She followed him out into the street and stood in ber bare feet until he drove away Freese says tbe description of the woman as to age size etc tallies with that published of Mrs Oderkirk Detective Bohen also thinks it quite likely that tbe ladys id has become unbalanced and as si was last worrying about a man who really did follow her persistently it is not unlikely that this fact fastened on her mind and that possibly the woman who scared Freese was the missing Mrs Oderkirk DAMAGE SLIT POSTPONED Mrs Oderklrks Dlaappearance Causes a Delay Sasta Cruz September 18 When the case of Mrs Oderkirk against William Ely for 50009 damages was called this morning in the Superior Court Cassin tbe plaintiffs attorney presented an affl daviUor a continuance In the affidavit was a clipping from the Chroxiclb telling of Mrs Oderkirks

Burlinganie Club races yesterday He made two match races with Lord Talbot Clifton The races were at a half of a mile and at a quarter of a mile for J0O a side Hobart named his bay gelding Button while Cliftons nominee was Jessie Sturgill The first match was at a half a mile Tobi rode Cliftons entry and Hobart mounted his own favorite The attendance was composed of some of the members of the Burlingame and Country clubs Kichard Tobin covered himself with glory by the masterly style in which be rode the mare in both races Jessie Sturgill won easily The half a mile race was run in 054 and is thought by onlookers to be a verv good run when the weight is considered The second race was between the same entries and Jockey Tobin took Jessie out at the fall of the flag and she maintained her lead to the finish winning very easily by a bout three lengths in the good time of 026 The weight in each event was 157 pounds and when it comes to putting such big weight on little polo ponies like the two participants fast time is out of the question The directors of the Country Club encouraged by the success of their last meeting are seriously contemplating the holding of another meeting similar to the one gven at Monterey recently ahd if tliey do it will be a great thing for the horse interests of the State as it will encourage the breeders to breed the polo ponies as well as the trotting and thoroughbred racehorses Thomas Williams president of the California Jockey Club intends to set apart a day for society and for the lovers of polo ponies It is the intention of Mr Williams to have six races on the pro gramme and alt tbe entries to be ridden by gentlemen jockeys Many of the latter are now practicing with the intention of entering in the races A prominent trader and breeder received am order from a wealthy society man to get him six or seven ponies to enter the races The polo races will probably be run in the early part of November and it is expected that all Californias 400 will be on hand to bet on their favorite jockeys Lady Yarde Buller Is Sensational Charges Against Dr and Mrs Wheeler The Contest Promises to Be Prolific of Unpleasant Revelations

Lady Yarde Baller daughter of the late General Ralph Kirkham proposes to have her say in court no matter what her relatives may think of tbe matter She is not afraid of having family secrets told and now that the fight in tbe family has commenced in earnest she proposes to give some Kirkham history which she says will not be the most pleasant thing for her ssters to hear IJdr Yarde Buller has shown herself to be possessed of considerable nerve because she Las commenced to carry out the threats she made against the family when she left the KirKham mansion The tight is to be made over Mrs Kate Edith Kirkham who is 65 years old and incompetent Gustave Mix a brother of the lady filed a petition in the Superior Court the other day asking that he be appointed guardian of the person and estate of Mrs Kirkham He seemed to be satisfactory to the family but when Mrs Yarde BullerBuller heard of the proceeding she at once entered a vigorous protest snd said that she would not stand aside for her uncle She employed attorneys and proceeded to make a vigorous fight when suddenly Mr Mix dismissed his petition and left Mrs Buller in a position where she could not injure the family Tbe Kirkbams felt that they bad outwitted Lady Yarde Builer and prevented her from creating a scandal The lady from London was not going to be downed She had beard hat her allowance of 320 a month bad been cut off and this left her with but an income of JIO a yenr from her estates in London She could not live on this amount because her tastes were extravagant and she had always lived in royal style Then again she had to have almost a new outfit because sbe lost nearly all sbe bad by the tire at Larkspur Lady Buller bad brought over a quantity of things from London because it was her desire to cut a dash among ber old friends in Oakland At the present time it has come to a question of money with ber She must have money and that is all there is about it The family quarrel was commenced in earnest in the Superior Court yesterday when Lady Yarde Buller filed an application asking that Sampson Tams of San Francisco be appointed guardian of the person and estate of Mrs Kirkham Sampson Tams was a particular friend of General Kirkham in his lifetime It is set forth in the petition that General Kirkham left an estate valued at 673123 Under the terms of the will the widow has life interest in the estate and upon her death the property is to be divided equally among the three daughters ot the deceased Lady Buller says that her mother is suffering from a stroke of paralysis and that she is entirely incompetent to manage her business affairs That is the beginning of tbe story as set forth in tbe complaint It seems that a couple of months ago Dr Wheeler a well known physician in West Oakland and Miss Kate kirkham were married at the Kirkbam mansion on the corner of Eighth and Oak streets The wedding was a swell affair and very select only a few of the society people being present Wben Lady Yarde Buller dropped over from London she found a new brother in law in the field installed in the old borne as the head of the honse From the very start Dr Wheeler and the lady from London were not on the best of terms and now they never speak The doctor had a very poor regard for his sister in law because be believes her brain unbalanced Lady Yarde Buller has no use for a brother in law who entertains such feelings toward her In her complaint now filed Lady Buller pays her compliments to the doctor and bis bride in no uncertain manner She says Mrs Wheeler taking advantage of my mothers physical and mental powers has by threats menace and undue influence secured complete control over her and the property It is also charged that Dr Wheeler and his wife have for the past fourteen months and now are using spending and living upon tbe greater part of the income of Mrs Ktrkharos estate which is estimated to be 1 3000 a month Then again the petitioner accuses her sister of causing ber mother to sign receipts amounting to 1000 each month Mrs Kirkham is in snch a condition tbat she cannot write so it is claimed that she simply made her mark on the receipts and tnen Mrs Wffeeler had a nurse named Mrs Emma Blake sign as a witness Lady Yarde Buller says that wnile sbe was at borne sbe saw ber sister treat her mother in an improper manner She usedbarsh language to mother in the presence of servants says the petitioner and even went so far as to lock her up in ber room and restrain ber of her liberty Then again she has laid violent hands upon mother knowing that her frail condition would not stand it and that her health would be seriously affected It is Lady Yarde Bullers idea to get her mother from under the influence of Dr Wheeler and his bride so that she will have something to say in the treatment and care of the old lady Then again the lady from London can never return to the family home while Dr Wheeler is there becanse the feeling is now too bitter The whole matter will have to be fought in court now because the Wheelers will not allow the matter to go by default as that would mean the taking away of the management of the estate from tbem and the stoppage of an allowance of 320 a month inade by the mother Attorney George Wright will have to come in and make a defense because it is charged thathe has drawn down 1000 a month out of the estate for fourteen months Mrs Buller says that he claimed to be the attorney for tbe estate but in reality it is charged that he is the attorney for Kate Wbeeler The whole matter promise sorrre rich

company in the district A committee from the club waited upon the Supervisors yesterday and presented their claims for better protection against fire A McCaivy chairman of the club committee nrged the importance of the matter by citing the fact that within a week over 10000 worth of property had been destroyed because of inadequate service He stated that the chemical engine now stationed at Second avenue was almost useless as it could not reach a fire in time to render effective service It was designed to quench tires in their incipiency and could not handle a big blaze The insurance companies he stated were reluctant to accept risks in tbe district because of tbe lack of tire protection Tbe district was growing rapidly and only requested that amount of consideration from tbe city authorities to which its large population seemed entitled Chief Sullivan approved the request of the clnb and said he believed the district had been without proper protection The department bad the apparatus ready as soon as suitable quarters were secured and provision was made to man tbe engine It wonld require about 1400 to fit op the building now occupied by the chemical engine and a farther allowance of 700 a month for the salaries of the members of the new company A decision was reached to recommend the creation of a company provided the Finance Company of the Board will farnisn tbe
