Halleck, whence they removed the children in March, 1854, to the present building, corner of Laguna and Haight streets, just then completed, at a cost of $30,000. This house, built of stone and brick, ex- pressly for the purpose, is highly creditable to the institution, as one of the noblest monuments of San Francisco benevolence. During the years 1862-3, s large and convenient addition was made to the pres- ent building, at an expense of $30,000, which. to- gether with the main building, will accommodate two hundred and fifty children. As s complement to the Sansome Hook and Ladder Co., who, upon dis- banding, donated to the asylum the building and lot owned by them, the new addition is called the " San- some Wing."


During the year 1879 the upper story of the build- ing was fitted up, and for the first time in its history the entire capacity of the asylum has been made available. The present number of children in the asylum is two hundred and five.

The present building is beautifully located on a hill, commanding an ex- tensive view of the surrounding country.

SAN FRANCISCO FEMALE HOSPITAL .- Loca- tion, 806 Stockton street. This hospital was opened for the reception of patients on the first day of April, 1868. The object of the institution is the care of poor, sick women. There is no rule as to the nativity, reli- gion, or social condition. It is a charity in the broad- est sense of the term. Any woman who is poor and sick is entitled to share its benefits. It is & general hospital for all diseases, and for lying-in. During the twelve years it has been open there have been near- ly one thousand births. Of the whole number of births over fifty per cent. have been illegitimate, showing conclusively the need of such an institution, aa, if it were not for this hospital, the probabilities are that the greater number would have shared the fate of 80 many thousands of innocents murdered in their moth- ers' womb. There have been besides & large number of patients admitted for general disease. There have also been a very large number of outside patients treated, the physician and surgeon being in attend- ance every morning from ten to eleven o'clock to treat any poor persons who may come. It was sup- ported by voluntary contributions until 1870, when the State appropriated $5,000 a year for its support. In 1879 the appropriation was reduced to $3,000. Dur- ing the past year this appropriation has been with- drawn entirely, consequently fewer patients will be admitted free. The Hospital is under the care of Dr. C. B. Hutchins.


Officers .- Mrs. Conkling, President ; Mrs. M. Hecht, Vice-President ; Mrs. C. B. Hutchins, Secretary ; Mrs. E. B. Pond, Treasurer; Mrs. M. E. Dayton, Matron.

This is a well-situated sunny home for the sick, where excellent nursing is provided, and where the beat Homeopathic Physicians and Surgeons are in attendance. Applications for admission should be made to Dr. C. A. Goss, at the Hospital, or to any of the officers.


Officers .- Mrs. George Hearst, President ; Mrs. John McKee and Mrs. A. E. Head, Vice-Presidents; Mrs. Ira G. Hoitt, Secretary ; Mrs. C. E. Gibbs, Auditor; Mrs. Judge Edmonds, Treasurer.


SAN FRANCISCO LYING-IN HOSPITAL AND FOUNDLING ASYLUM .- Incorporated April, 1868, for the care, protection, and proper treatment of un- protected single women, with their offspring, together with all other children that may be abandoned in infancy by outside parties, said children being con- sidered foundlings.


The Trustees design to make this institution re- spectable in the highest degree. Efficient and avail- able to patients from every county in the State, regardless of religious belief sectarianiam or national- ity. No one is required to pay more than her average cost to the hospital. It is expected that the institution will be supported by receipts from patients, donations and contributions from different sources, appropria- tions by the City and State Governments, and by bequests, legacies, etc. This is a special lying-in hospital, and for the specialties for which it was organized affords facilities not to be found elsewhere on this coast. No cases of disease are admitted for treatment. It is therefore expected to be kept free from erysipelas and other contagious diseases that are the bane of lying-in wards connected with gen- eral hospitals. Its locality, facing Jefferson Square, is not surpassed for salubrity by any other in the city. The building is thoroughly ventilated, and affords all the comforts of a private home free from intrusion. Competent nurses are in attendance day and night. Applicants must furnish satisfactory proof of having heretofore' sustained a good moral character.


For consultation the attending physician will be found at the Hospital, 913 Golden Gate avenue, from twelve o'clock M. until one o'clock P. M., daily; or at his residence, 915 Golden Gate avenue, at nine o'clock A. M. and one and five o'clock P. M. Letters of in- quiry should be addressed to Benjamin F. Hardy, M. D., No. 915 Golden Gate avenue, San Francisco, in- closing au addressed aud stamped envelope for & prompt reply.

The objects of the so- ciety are to relieve the sick and destitute, distribute clothing, seek employment for needy women, and assist the unfortunate in all practicable ways. Con- tributions of reading matter are distributed to the prisons, hospitals and asylums. The social interest of the congregation is the special care of the society, and is sought to be promoted by systematic visiting, extending a hospitable welcome to strangers and so- cial receptions. The money needed for the prose- cution of this work is obtained by the Sewing Society of the Congregation, which meets every alternate Monday at two o'clock P. M. in the church parlors, to which all are cordially invited.
