Illness of Manager Rothmaler. Oswald Rothmaler, manager of the Western Sugar Refinery. Is In a critical condition at the Lane Hospital. He has been suffering from appendicitis and yes- terday it was decided to be necessary to perform an operation. After the opera- tion Mr. Rothmaler was considerably re- lieved, but his physicians declare that his condition is still serious. Last night he was resting as easily as could be ex- pected. COUNTING THE CITY MONET. Auditor Says Charter Contains No Provision for It. Auditor Wells dlrcovered yesterday an- other defect In the charter. He says that there is no provision In the new organic law for the counting of money In the city treasury. Under the consolidation act this was specifically provided for. and. although It did not prevent the Widber defalcation, it Is thought that if the counting of the money is carried out in the letter as well as the spirit of the law similar serious complications would be avoided. -'. The only check imposed by the charter Is that of the joint custody safe, the combination of which is held by the Au- ditor and Treasurer. After all the money had been counted by Treasurer Brooks over a million dollars was transferred to the joint custody safe in sacks of $29,000 in gold and $!000 in silver. Whenever the Treasurer desires any money he calls on the Auditor and they both open the safe and transfer the amount requested to the outer vault. A record is kept In the safe, wfflch is locked again by the two offi- cials. The Auditor, however, is not liable DEMANDS WILL BE PAID. Teachers and Janitors to Receive a Portion of Back Salaries. The Board of Education held a special meeting on Monday night for the purpose of passing the demands of the teachers and janitors for the month of November, 1898, as a result of Judge Mura-sky's dis- solution of the injunction against the Au- ditor. As there is only $57,587 47 available out of inheritance taxes collected to pay tho claims, amounting to $94,405 70, the board passed resolutions allowing 61 per cent of the salaries. This is necessary because none of the demands take prior- ity. Therefore the money will be divided pro rata among the claimants. The clerks In the Board of Education were immediately set to work altering the demands to the figures on the 61 per cent basis, and after they have been signed by Superintendent Webster they will go to the Auditor for his signature. It is ex- pected that the demands will be ready for payment by the end of this week. Auditor Wells has strong hopes that the sum remaining due on the warrants will be paid to the teachers and janitors as fast as other moneys are collected for col- lateral inheritance taxes and that ulti- mately the salaries both for November and December, IS9S, will be paid In full. bonds, etc.. to be worth at the present market value a total of more than $.'.),- ow». In addition there are forty-three parcels of land. The Bishop's address formed the most interesting feature of the day's session and was listened to attentively by all the delegates present. At the outset he furnished his opinion on the question of wht-ther this is the nineteenth or ihe twentieth century by asserting his belief that it will take this year to round out tne nineteenth century. The address was largely a matter of statistics regarding the work he had accomplished during the year and what he had done during f .!ie last decade. The number confirmed dur- ing the year was given as T3S. For the decade the number confirmed was S2Vj; the number of clergymen ordained, 1W; the number of churches built, 8, and the num- ber of times the Bishop had officiated 2418. An eloquent tribute was paid to the memory of those noted in the church who had passed away during the year, and the address was afterward punctuated wnh the '?All Saints' Prayer." The report of the secretary of the boanl of missions show<-d a hoalthy rate of prosres*. While there were but sixteen workers in the Held in IS*.*), there are now thirty-.-ight. . Major Hooper precipitated a lengthy discussion by making a plea that the salary of Archdeacon Emery be fixed at $1500, '1n order that he might practically become the assistant of the Bishop, whom Mr. Hooper thought to be much ov< r- worked. The question was laid over for linal consideration until to-day. A united service was held at 8 o clock in the evening in the interest of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew and the Daughters of the King, during which there were ten-minute addresses by the Bey. E. U Parsons, the Rev. D. O. Kelley, Dr. George L. Baker and Ralph Daniels. This service was followed by an Informal reception in tho Sunday school room. At 2 o'clock in tho afternoon there was a semi-annual conference of officers of the California branch of the Romans Auxiliary, at which routine matters wore disposed" of. On Friday the Woman s Auxiliary exercises will form the princi- pal feature. At that time Rev. Dr dam- pen, the rector of Trinity Church, will deliver the sermon. The programme until the end or the convention will be as follows: Wednesday S a. m. ?

H. Taylor, Miss Came Gwin and Mrs. A. M. Lawyer. DELB E R T *^ M. DEWEY; ?pe- fl«B/A\ cial agent of the Jfj3B£/tJi\ Federal Depart- Wljinif/""" \\ rnent of Labor, M /»y*X i. who is in the city \n||§£||ajM investigating la- <s§ps-*«J; bor troubles, is also promoting what will be the greatest family convention yet hold in this coun- try. He is arranging for a Dewey convention in Carnegie Hall, New York, that will last four days. At its close a big banquet will be served at which two thousand guests, all mem- bers of the Dewey family, will be present. The festivities include a pil- grimage to Wfstfield, Mass., the an- cestral home of the Dewey family in America. While searching for data Commis- sioner Dewey made the discovery that the family possessed a poat of arms grarted to one Simeon Dewey in England when he was baronet of Stow Hall in the year 1204. The record of the original grant was found in the archives of the British Museum. Th© motto was not found with it and is purely a matter of tradition in the American family. The motto, "Cor - r.a Venlet Delectl**' is interpreted, "A crown will come to the deserving.'' Th«-re are more than a hundred Dewey families in California, live of that name being oditors of weekly pa- pers in the interior. Soon after the arrival of Admiral Dewey In Washington he was asked to set a time when it would be agree- able to himself to meet the members of his family at a reunion.

IDEA ON CENTURY PROBLEM ARCHDEACON'S SALARY CAUSES WIDE DISCUSSION. Interesting Programme Prepared fo: the Consideration of Delegates During the Rest of the Week. The semi-centennial convention of the Episcopal Diocese of California, which will last for three days, was called to or- der Us Trinity Church, Bush and Gough streets, yesterday morning at 10 o'clock by Bishop William F. Nichols. Rev. R. C. Foute, the president of the standing com- mittee, officiated as celebrant of the holy communion, after which Rev. M. D. Wil- son wes elected secretary and Herbert Kolger assistant secretary. Bishop Nich- ols followed with a sermon which con- cluded the morning session, and «n ad- journment v.as taken to 3 o'clock in the afternoon. -The Church's Glory of Cross Rearing" was the title of the sermon and the text, "Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Je^us throughout all ages, world ¦without cad," was taken from Ephesians ill :£l. "This is the ascription, the ideal and apostolic policy fur the church all in one." paid the preacher in introducing his theme. "We usod it this morning more especially for its apt putting of a pure and primitive church policy. There is a freshness and htalih of the childhood of the church about it. It glows with the lervor of apostolic zeal. If we could have cur notion of what a church ought to be clothed in, choice and precise, it has al- ready been done fe>r us htre? unto him £lory in the church. ?\btit perhaps at nrst the text docs not leave an altogether clear impression on tJie mind. Most of our impressions of the church that re-ally count with us have been very definite, as reproaches ui>on the church are not lacking in distinctness. Now. every plotia. that we say or sing in th.- servk-is is a help into a better in- Blgnt into the meaning cf the text. Glory m the church should be the intense con- oern of each and every age, as it comes and goes out of each and every century and liaH century- The most vital question that can be askied about the half century oi th-- diocese that so nearly coincides v.;th the last half of the nineteenth cen- tury s<.-eins to me to be what glory has be. r. given in the church. To answer thai eju-->t:'j:i is to group the data around one ar.d all of those whose kind manipulations .¦; that piory we lind in the cUiirch of the N> w Testament: namely, the glory of crosF ijeuring, of worship and of general character." For some time- the speaker dwelt on the trials of the church in California during ih" last fifty ye-ars, during which he re- Jerred in words of high praise to the work «t the Bey. Flare! s. Mines, the tirst reo- tor ar.d founder of Trinity Church, whose mfferiiiK from disease was such that his ministry vas referred to as "literally that <¦: a livingman." He said that in lhM the missionary board in the Kast declared California, no longer a missionary ground and on July 24 of that year the rirst con- vention was held in Trinity Chapel, the ministers present being Key. Flavel S. Mines. Key. John L. Ver Mehr. LU D.. Ke-v. Samuel Morehouse, Rev. Augustus Fitch. Rev. Tornwnd Huddart and Key. W. R. I^avf'nworth. "Doi:'t look back upon the past and sing dirpr-t." exhorted the Bishop. "The lives ; of the?e men teach us that true worth and ability rratly "come through conquering' obstacles, through cross-bearing. To-day, much as we need sjinctiried stewardship, much as we need Influence In the great agencies ol the Government, of education, moral, social, political and economic re- form, we need still more the realization of the power of the cross. Without that key the fifty years of diocesan life form mere hieroglyphics." Thf afternoon session was opened with nominations for standing committees, boards and officials. The following were the nominations, which will be confirmed by vote to-day: Ptanchne cigimitte*: Clercymm? J. Bak»- ¦n-^li, \V. I. KTjT. E. J. Lion, R. C. Fout^. R Hirhie. E. H Spa'.dlng. LH.D.. W.

RESULT OF AN EXPERIMENT HAS SPREAD FAR BEYOND ALL EXPECTATIONS. Nineteenth Anniversary of the First Society Will Be Celebrated in Maine During This Month. Rev. Francis E. Clark, the father of Christian Endeavor, was given a genuine "Californlan welcome" last night by the largest crowd that could assemble in the First Congregational Church. The founder of the Endeavor movement arrived in this city yesterday, and will leave to-day on the steamer China for the Orient. "Father" Clark formed the first Chris- tian Endeavor society nineteen years ago. He was then pastor of a church In Port- land, Me. The movement met with popu- lar approval, other churches followed the example set them by Mr. Clark, and the society spread until now it has branches all over the entire world. Mr. Clark's headquarters are now in Boston. Mass. There he edits the official organ of the Endeavor Union, besides at- tending to the numerous other duties which his position as president entails. His present tour will take him through Siberia, China, Japan and Russia, and will enable him to be present at the world's convention to be held in London. ? Mrs. Clark accompanies her husband on all his travels, and he says he finds her assistance Invaluable, especially in Ori- ental countries where the prejudices of the people make it impossible lor a man to address a congregation of women. Mr. and Mrs. Clark have their little son with them, and will take him on the entire tour. "My object In going to the Orient at this time," said Dr. Ciark. "is to be pres- ent at the convention to be held at Foo- chow. in China, another in Japan and finally to see what the whole world can do at the international convention at London In June. In a few days it will be the nineteenth anniversary of the society at the little church where I launched the experiment that I had no idea was to prove such a success and to spreaa throughout the whole world. This move- ment is the greatest religious event of the century. No one could foresee what that little meeting at Woolaston was to pro- duce, but It is plainly to be seen that it was not the work of man, but the work of God." Mr?. Clark made a few remarks regard- ing the practical work of Christian En- deavor, and when she finished speaking she was cheered, while all the women waved their handkerchiefs. "Common whisky Is a curse? the Old Gov- ernment is a blessing. ? Overworked Warrant Clerks. Judge Conlan had occasion yesterday to draw attention to the fact that the present staff of warrant clerks was over- worked. The Judge had a case of Grant Wilks, a colored man charged with petty Miss Annie B. Chalmers Dead. Miss Annie B. Chalmers, principal of the. Edison Primary School, died on Monday. She had been ill about two months. Mis 3 Chalmers had taught in the department twenty years.

The preamble sent. out by the executive com- mittee stated that owing to a rise in the price of leather and findings It had be- come necessary for the shoemakers to osk for an Increase In prices. At the meeting last night C. E. Perry presided, while George Pollock acted as secretary.

Attorney General Tlrey L. Ford yester- day. In an opinion to D. J. Hall. District Attorney of Trinity County, held that ?where one person under an ordinance of the Board of Supervisors fills the offices of Coroner and Public Administrator and fails to file his bond as Public Adminis- trator within the time required by law. such failure does not affect the title of the person to the office of Coroner, the offices being separate and not so blended that the bond executed for the faithful performance of the duties of one would embrace the obligations of the other. HE BLEW OUT THE GAS. Robert McDonald Was Not Used to Carbon Monoxide in Ireland. Robert McDonald, Robert Lockhart, Robert Kane and David Steele arrived in this ctty on laj»t Monday night from County Armagh. Ireland, to try their luck In the Golden West. They registered at the Brooklyn Hotel and Mc- Donald and Lockhart were assigned to one room and the two others to another. They all retired about 9 o'clock. McDon- ald had not been accustomed to the use of tras. and after turning down the light a little he blew It out and Jumped into bed About 2 o'clock In the morning he was" awakened by the smell in the room, and after opening the window an inch or two lay down on the floor, where he was found about 7 o'clock by Steele. who went to the room to see If they were up and ,l r ,.v-se<i. Lockhart happened to ba nearest the' window and did not suffer so much as McDonald, and was soon all right. McDonald was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where he was soon pronounced out of danger. on his bonds for any shortage that might occur in the Joint custody safe No check Is imposed on the Treasurer for moneys outside of the safe, and as he carries several hundred thousand dol- lars for the transaction of dally busi- ness, the necessity of counting th© money at intervals is apparent. It is thought that this may be done, however on the order of the Mayor, since the charter appears to grant him unlimited authority on matters pertaining to th* municipal government. larceny, before him, and objection had been made to the complaint drawn by Warrant Clerk Peery. as the date was wrong. The Judge said that he was not surprised, as the clerks had to work day and night and could not be blamed for triflingerrors. It was the same, he said, with the stenographers. SEQUEL TO A KILLING.

Ford an Inquiry a3 to whether the names of candidates for Justices of the Peace In San Francisco should be placed on the general or mu- nicipal ticket. Mr. Ford In his response states that Justices of the Peace In the city and county of San Francisco are Judi- cial officers under the State constitution; that they are to be elected at the same time and In the same manner that State officers are elected; that they are not city and county officers, and therefore do not come within section 1196 of the Political Code; and further, that the names of the parties to be voted for for the office of Justice of the Peace should be placed upon the general ticket, within the mean- ing of section 1197 of the Political Code. "It Is assumed in the foregoing," the opin- ion states, "that under the law there Is to be an election for Justices of the Peace 'next fall,' that is, In November, 1900." STATE HEALTH BOARD DISCUSSES THE PLAGUE INTERESTING SESSION AT THE GRAND HOTEL. Dr. Bazet Offers a Timely Paper on the Spread of Tuberculosis and Members Consider Quar- antine Matters. f The four members of the State Board of Health met last night in the Grand Hotel to listen to a paper by Dr. L. Bazet upon the prophylaxis of tuberculosis and to discuss quarantine measures for the pre- vention of the introduction of the bubonic plague. The meeting was continued from an ad- journment taken in Sacramento Monday night. There were present Dr. D. D. Crowley of Oakland. Dr. C. A. Ruggles of Stockton. Dr. L. Bazet of this city and Dr. \V. P. Mathews. After the session had been In progress for some time Dr. J. M. Williamson and other members of the city Board of Health came in to listen and to participate In the discussion. Dr. Bazet's paper was a lengthy treatise on the contagious properties of tubercu- losis. He cited a number of authorities and tables of statistics to show the rapid Kprea<i ot the disease through contact with tuberculous subjects. After an ex- haustive and detailed statement of the virulence of the disease he concluded by advocating a number of hygienic rules to prevent the spread of consumption. The main purpose ot the paper was to corrob- orate the stand taken by the State board some time ago whtn ft suggested a State quarantine against those afflicted with consumption. ' « ?¦¦ ¦ It was resolved to take charge of the quarantine tug Governor Perkins, with the consent of the Governor. The next »übject for discussion was the bubonic plague. Dr. Bazet was appointed a committee of one to st-e Dr. Ktuiyon ot the Federal quarantine service and re- quest him to notify the State board ifany case of bubonfc plague entered the port. ITALIAN EDITOR ON TRIAL FOR LIBEL CHARGE BASED ON AN ARTICLE IN LA CRITICA. Dr. de Lucis, the Aggrieved Party, Puts on Witnesses to Testify Against the Defendant, Mancini. The trial by jury of G. Mancini, editor of La Critlca, on the charge of criminal libel preferred by Dr. A. de Lucls, attract- ed a large number of the Italian colony yesterday afternoon to Judge Mogan's court. Dr. de Lucis was represented by Prosecuting Attorney Harris and Attor- ney Madden, and the defendant by Attor- neys Devoto and Percy Long. The article complained of appeared in La Critlca last October. It charged the doctor with having been convicted of a, felony in Italy and other offenses. The doctor was called as the first witness and denied the allegations in the article. He testified that Mancini called upon him at his office and demanded $100 to refrain from publishing the article. Mancini was ordered out of the office. Mrs. Emma Rose, the doctor's sister-in-law, testified that she was in his office "at the time. She corroborated the doctor's testimony. Charles Boreos. 632 Broadway, testified to a conversation with Mancini, during which Manclnl said that De Lucls was "blowing" himself In saloons, and If he had paid him the money he was squan- dering the article would not have ap- peared. Manclnl added that De Lucis had offered him $5 Out of charity, which was indignantly refused. F. Blaglnl, 563 Greenwich street, gave similar testimony. At this stage F. Cavagnaro, wine mer- chant, and Dr.' Joseph Pescia were called for the defense. The former testified that he had heard the doctor's character dis- cussed and It was bad. Dr. Pescia testi- fied that Mancinl's character was good. The case was then continued till to-mor- row afternoon. ;,-,_.< Chinese Weapons Retained. Judge Cabaniss refused yesterday to make an order returning to Chinese weapons taken from them when arrested on the ground that the end justified the means in the present condition of China- town. The application had been made by A. S. Newburgh. who claimed that the police had no right to interfere with the privileges of citizens. COURT NOTES. Mrs. Annie Mueller filed suit yesterday against Lena Gehrels to recover $10,0W damages for the alleged alienation of the affections of plaintiff's husband by the defendant. Mrs. Mueller alleges that In IS9S, Lena Gehrels, by her blandishments and seductions, alienated the love and affection of Mr. Mueller, and although Mueller died in October, ISI'9. she has since remained unmarried and unhappy by reason of the' wrongs committed by the defendant. John Nightingale yesterday sued John T., Sarah A. and Anna M. Sullivan to foreclose a chattel mortgage for $3300, se- cured by all of the furnishings in the Ho- tel Oriel, 1904 Market street.

Owing to a death In the family of one of the witnesses, the trial of John Hargon and Albert Ross, charged with robbery, was continued by Judge Dunne yesterday until this morning. OCEAN VIEW RAILROAD GATE AND ITS HOODOO Another Accident Barely Averted by the Prompt Action of Corporal Shanahan. Had it not been for the prompt action of Corporal Shanahan yesterday afternoon there would have been another case for the Coroner at the railroad crossing at Ocean View. At 5:30 p. m., as the incoming train approached the crossing, a China- man was driving a wagon on his way home from the cemetery. The Mongolian had got Inside the gate when the rcun in charge of the crossing discovered the train approaching. He rushed to the crank and proceeded to lower the gates before the team on which the Chinaman was driving had got clear of the crossing. The result was that the arm of the lower- ing gate caught the top of the wagon and held the vehicle fast in a position where the train would cut it through. Corporal Shanahan, who is In charge of the Ocean View police station, fortunately happened to be standing by at the time, and he rushed in and raised the arm of the gate sufficiently to ease the wagon and at the same time melted the horse's head and turned him to one side, thus swinging the wagon clear of the passing train. The frightened Mongolian jumped from his seat and ran like a liberated wild animal. It was some time before Corporal Shana- han could induce him to take charge of his team and drive off. The man whom the railroad company keeps to look after the hoodoo gate remained as impassive as a sphinx. This hoodoo. pate has a companion In the one at Sunnyslde. where accidents oc- cur frequently, and too often with a sacri- fice of human life.

Doubtless a change of location will now be made and a splen- did building erected for the purposes of the association. The officers of the soci- ety at the present time are: Samuel Po- lack, president; Peter Abrahamson, vice president; Mrs. M. Kaskell, secretary Miss Amelia Levy, assistant secretary- Philip ?

COUNTING THE CITY MONET.

Auditor Says Charter Contains NoProvision for It.

Auditor Wells dlrcovered yesterday an-other defect In the charter. He says thatthere is no provision In the new organic

law for the counting of money In thecity treasury. Under the consolidationact this was specifically provided for.and. although It did not prevent theWidber defalcation, it Is thought that ifthe counting of the money is carried outin the letter as well as the spirit of thelaw similar serious complications wouldbe avoided. -'.

The only check imposed by the charterIs that of the joint custody safe, thecombination of which is held by the Au-ditor and Treasurer. After all the moneyhad been counted by Treasurer Brooksover a million dollars was transferred to

the joint custody safe in sacks of $29,000

in gold and $!000 in silver. Whenever theTreasurer desires any money he calls onthe Auditor and they both open the safeand transfer the amount requested to theouter vault. A record is kept In the safe,wfflch is locked again by the two offi-cials. The Auditor, however, is not liable

DEMANDS WILL BE PAID.

Teachers and Janitors to Receive aPortion of Back Salaries.

The Board of Education held a specialmeeting on Monday night for the purpose

of passing the demands of the teachersand janitors for the month of November,1898, as a result of Judge Mura-sky's dis-

solution of the injunction against the Au-ditor. As there is only $57,587 47 availableout of inheritance taxes collected to pay

tho claims, amounting to $94,405 70, theboard passed resolutions allowing 61 percent of the salaries. This is necessarybecause none of the demands take prior-ity. Therefore the money willbe dividedpro rata among the claimants.

The clerks In the Board of Educationwere immediately set to work altering thedemands to the figures on the 61 per centbasis, and after they have been signed bySuperintendent Webster they will go tothe Auditor for his signature. It is ex-pected that the demands willbe ready forpayment by the end of this week.

Auditor Wells has strong hopes that thesum remaining due on the warrants willbe paid to the teachers and janitors asfast as other moneys are collected for col-lateral inheritance taxes and that ulti-mately the salaries both for Novemberand December, IS9S, willbe paid In full.

The Bishop's address formed the mostinteresting feature of the day's sessionand was listened to attentively by allthe delegates present. At the outset he

furnished his opinion on the question ofwht-ther this is the nineteenth or ihetwentieth century by asserting his beliefthat it will take this year to round out tnenineteenth century. The address waslargely a matter of statistics regardingthe work he had accomplished during theyear and what he had done during f.!ielast decade. The number confirmed dur-ing the year was given as T3S. For thedecade the number confirmed was S2Vj; thenumber of clergymen ordained, 1W; thenumber of churches built, 8, and the num-ber of times the Bishop had officiated 2418.

An eloquent tribute was paid to thememory of those noted in the church whohad passed away during the year, and theaddress was afterward punctuated wnhthe '?All Saints' Prayer."

The report of the secretary of the boanlof missions show<-d a hoalthy rate ofprosres*. While there were but sixteenworkers in the Held in IS*.*), there are nowthirty-.-ight. .

Major Hooper precipitated a lengthy

discussion by making a plea that thesalary of Archdeacon Emery be fixed at$1500, '1n order that he might practicallybecome the assistant of the Bishop, whomMr. Hooper thought to be much ov< r-worked. The question was laid over forlinal consideration until to-day.

A united service was held at 8 o clockin the evening in the interest of theBrotherhood of St. Andrew and theDaughters of the King, during whichthere were ten-minute addresses by theBey. E. U Parsons, the Rev. D. O. Kelley,

Dr. George L. Baker and Ralph Daniels.This service was followed by an Informalreception in tho Sunday school room.

At 2 o'clock in tho afternoon there wasa semi-annual conference of officers ofthe California branch of the RomansAuxiliary, at which routine matters woredisposed" of. On Friday the Woman sAuxiliary exercises will form the princi-

pal feature. At that time Rev. Dr dam-pen, the rector of Trinity Church, willdeliver the sermon.

EPISCOPALIANSARE ADVISED TO

BEAR THE CROSSBishop Nichols Opens

Their Convention.?

IDEA ON CENTURY PROBLEM

ARCHDEACON'S SALARY CAUSESWIDE DISCUSSION.

Interesting Programme Prepared fo:

the Consideration of DelegatesDuring the Rest of the

Week.

The semi-centennial convention of theEpiscopal Diocese of California, whichwill last for three days, was called to or-der Us Trinity Church, Bush and Goughstreets, yesterday morning at 10 o'clockby Bishop William F. Nichols. Rev. R. C.Foute, the president of the standing com-mittee, officiated as celebrant of the holycommunion, after which Rev. M.D. Wil-son wes elected secretary and HerbertKolger assistant secretary. Bishop Nich-ols followed with a sermon which con-cluded the morning session, and «n ad-journment v.as taken to 3 o'clock in theafternoon.

-The Church's Glory of Cross Rearing"was the title of the sermon and the text,

"Unto him be glory in the church by

Christ Je^us throughout all ages, world¦without cad," was taken from Ephesiansill:£l.

"This is the ascription, the ideal andapostolic policy fur the church all in one."paid the preacher in introducing histheme. "We usod it this morning moreespecially for its apt putting of a pureand primitive church policy. There is afreshness and htalih of the childhood ofthe church about it. It glows with thelervor of apostolic zeal. Ifwe could havecur notion of what a church ought to beclothed in, choice and precise, it has al-ready been done fe>r us htre? unto him£lory in the church.

?\btit perhaps at nrst the text docs notleave an altogether clear impression ontJie mind. Most of our impressions of thechurch that re-ally count with us havebeen very definite, as reproaches ui>on thechurch are not lacking in distinctness.Now. every plotia. that we say or sing inth.- servk-is is a help into a better in-Blgnt into the meaning cf the text. Glorym the church should be the intense con-oern of each and every age, as it comesand goes out of each and every centuryand liaH century- The most vital questionthat can be askied about the half centuryoi th-- diocese that so nearly coincidesv.;th the last half of the nineteenth cen-tury s<.-eins to me to be what glory hasbe. r. given in the church. To answer thaieju-->t:'j:i is to group the data around onear.d all of those whose kind manipulations.¦; that piory we lind in the cUiirch of theN> w Testament: namely, the glory ofcrosF ijeuring, of worship and of generalcharacter."

For some time- the speaker dwelt on thetrials of the church in California duringih" last fifty ye-ars, during which he re-Jerred in words of high praise to the work«t the Bey. Flare! s. Mines, the tirst reo-tor ar.d founder of Trinity Church, whosemfferiiiK from disease was such that hisministry vas referred to as "literally that<¦: a livingman." He said that in lhM themissionary board in the Kast declaredCalifornia, no longer a missionary groundand on July 24 of that year the rirst con-vention was held in Trinity Chapel, theministers present being Key. Flavel S.Mines. Key. John L. Ver Mehr. LU D..Ke-v. Samuel Morehouse, Rev. AugustusFitch. Rev. Tornwnd Huddart and Key.W. R. I^avf'nworth.

"Doi:'t look back upon the past and singdirpr-t." exhorted the Bishop. "The lives;of the?e men teach us that true worth andability rratly "come through conquering'obstacles, through cross-bearing. To-day,much as we need sjinctiried stewardship,much as we need Influence In the greatagencies ol the Government, of education,moral, social, political and economic re-form, we need still more the realization ofthe power of the cross. Without that keythe fifty years of diocesan life form merehieroglyphics."

Thf afternoon session was opened withnominations for standing committees,boards and officials. The following werethe nominations, which will be confirmedby vote to-day:

FATHER CLARKWELCOMED BY

ENDEAVOR HOSTStarting on a Tour of

the World.

RESULT OF AN EXPERIMENT

HAS SPREAD FAR BEYOND ALLEXPECTATIONS.

Nineteenth Anniversary of the FirstSociety Will Be Celebrated

in Maine During ThisMonth.

Rev. Francis E. Clark, the father ofChristian Endeavor, was given a genuine

"Californlan welcome" last night by thelargest crowd that could assemble in theFirst Congregational Church. The founderof the Endeavor movement arrived in thiscity yesterday, and will leave to-day onthe steamer China for the Orient.

"Father" Clark formed the first Chris-tian Endeavor society nineteen years ago.

He was then pastor of a church In Port-land, Me. The movement met with popu-lar approval, other churches followed theexample set them by Mr. Clark, and thesociety spread until now ithas branchesall over the entire world.

Mr. Clark's headquarters are now inBoston. Mass. There he edits the officialorgan of the Endeavor Union, besides at-tending to the numerous other dutieswhich his position as president entails.

His present tour will take him throughSiberia, China, Japan and Russia, andwill enable him to be present at theworld's convention to be held in London.

? Mrs. Clark accompanies her husband onall his travels, and he says he finds herassistance Invaluable, especially in Ori-ental countries where the prejudices ofthe people make it impossible lor a manto address a congregation of women. Mr.and Mrs. Clark have their little son withthem, and will take him on the entiretour.

"My object In going to the Orient atthis time," said Dr. Ciark. "is to be pres-ent at the convention to be held at Foo-chow. in China, another in Japan andfinallyto see what the whole world can doat the international convention at LondonIn June. In a few days it will be thenineteenth anniversary of the society atthe little church where Ilaunched theexperiment that Ihad no idea was toprove such a success and to spreaathroughout the whole world. This move-ment is the greatest religious event of thecentury. No one could foresee what thatlittle meeting at Woolaston was to pro-duce, but It is plainly to be seen that itwas not the work of man, but the work ofGod."

Mr?. Clark made a few remarks regard-ing the practical work of Christian En-deavor, and when she finished speakingshe was cheered, while all the womenwaved their handkerchiefs.

"Common whiskyIs a curse? the Old Gov-ernment is a blessing. ?

OCEAN VIEW RAILROADGATE AND ITS HOODOO

Another Accident Barely Averted bythe Prompt Action of Corporal

Shanahan.Had it not been for the prompt action of

Corporal Shanahan yesterday afternoonthere would have been another case forthe Coroner at the railroad crossing atOcean View. At 5:30 p. m., as the incomingtrain approached the crossing, a China-man was driving a wagon on his wayhome from the cemetery. The Mongolianhad got Inside the gate when the rcun incharge of the crossing discovered thetrain approaching. He rushed to thecrank and proceeded to lower the gatesbefore the team on which the Chinamanwas driving had got clear of the crossing.The result was that the arm of the lower-ing gate caught the top of the wagon andheld the vehicle fast in a position wherethe train would cut it through. CorporalShanahan, who is Incharge of the OceanView police station, fortunately happenedto be standing by at the time, and herushed in and raised the arm of the gatesufficiently to ease the wagon and at thesame time melted the horse's head andturned him to one side, thus swinging thewagon clear of the passing train. Thefrightened Mongolian jumped from hisseat and ran like a liberated wild animal.It was some time before Corporal Shana-han could induce him to take charge ofhis team and drive off. The man whomthe railroad company keeps to look afterthe hoodoo gate remained as impassive asa sphinx.

This hoodoo. pate has a companion Inthe one at Sunnyslde. where accidents oc-cur frequently, and too often with a sacri-fice of human life.
