Because it prints the truth, why should the Austrian Government be so eiraid of it as to prevent its entry into that country? LAZAR S, CHURICH, THOS. J. HAYNES, ———— CHURCH OF THE ADVENT. Bishop Nichols Preaches on Associated Missions. Bishop Nichols delivered a sermon at the Church of the Advent on Eleventh street last night of particular intérest to the Associated Missions, which, he said, held services at some half dozen places about the bay. This mission work, he | said, is a work that last He drew some attractive figures from the cornerstone of the church and the foundation thereof, showing that these stand for perfect stability. This is not a work, he said, by which the laborer earns, but a work for the upbuilding of the church to the glory of God. Bishop Nichols pointed out some val- uable lessons which the mission work teaches, and gave the several laborers in the field credit for earnest effort in behalf of the advancement and growth of the church. The services were greatly enhanced by the singing of the large choir of boys | whose voices are well trained and who entered with spirit into their part of the service.

The morning was all that could be de- | sired for a spin on the bay, but in the after- noon the weather was very rongh. People of all classes were among the visitors, from the man who built a ship to the lass who loved, and who still lovers a sailor. The lass was very much in evidence, resplen- dent in holiday costume to catch the sail- | or's eye. It was very lovely in the morn- [ ing, but the girls who lingered too long on the cruisers found it very different in the afternoon. A gale soughed t?rr»u h the | billows, and the waters were lashed with | foam, the whitecaps almost burying the | little launches and whitening the smoke- | stacks of the tugs. The boatsrocked like | cradles and an epidemic of seasickness | broke out among the fair sex,and even | men who braved the terrors of the deep | had that strange longing for terra firma. Tickets for the round trip were selling at 50 cents and up to2 o'clock in the after- | noon all passengers were taken to the Olympia and transferred to the Philadel- phia by the next boat. ATrel that the rotnd tilps sun went, hu“l landings were only effected now and then and excursionists had to be content with sailing round the cruisers. On board the vessels the officers were extremely 1s and explained again and again orkings of the guns, the electric plants and everything else connected with the ships-of-war and escorted the guests through the cruisers from the engine- | rooms to the military tops. Seven ensigns, fresh from the graduat-| ing class at Annapolis, arrived here yester- day morning and went directly on board the Olympia. It did not take the young sailors long to get brokenin and before 1 o’clock they were all doing duty as escorts through the cruiser. One of the young | men said that he and his companions ex- pected to stay on the Olympia for three vears and that she was going to leave shortly for Japan to become the flagship of the Asiastic squadron. Landing on the cruisers was made more companion ladde-s could be used, the lee side being reservea for the officers. Engels and Carter had provided stagings at both adders. The Ethel and Marion smashed the staging at the Philadelphia’s side in the afternoon. and no passengers were al- lowed to go aboard the cruiser until the damage was repaired There was considera- ble grumbling in consequence, but the Phil- adeiphia’s officers were not willing to take chances of further damage. ‘I suppose we will be censured for our action,” said one of the officers, “but we could not afford to risk smashing the laader in weather like this, and somebody might be lost over- beard.” Commissioner Chadbourne, accompanied by General R. P. Hammond and Captain L. Smith went down on the water front yesterday to look at the rows of palmsand elms which were planted some monthsago to beautify East street. It was a very sad spectacle—the trees, not the colonel and his party. “Why these tears?"’ asked General Ham- mond, soothingly. “T’ve got something in my eye,” said the military Commissioner. *‘Isn’tthatsplen- did—I mean too bad. What do you think about it, Dick? Will they grow? You used to be a Park Commissioner and you ought to be an expert.” 7 “The palms have stopped growing, Chad,” said Expert Hammond, slowly, “but the cork elms will be all right ina year or two. “In a year or two,” gasped Chadbourne. “Shall I have to wait that long before I can gather a bonquet down here and throw it at myself? What’s the matter with these trees, anyhow ? “Not enough water, Chad.” “Well, I be court-martialed! I wentout to Superintendent McLaren and asked him for a good man to take care of this garden. He said he would give me the best man he had. I'm going to give him back to-mor- row and tell him he’s too good to be taken away from the park. I thought I would geta crop of corks out of those elms for the Fourth of July, sure.” Commissioner Chadbourne donned his war feathers on Saturday and went after the Southern Pacitic Company and the Pa- cific Transfer Company. The sheds and ferry buildings have been newly painted and the Commissioner has insisted that the companies shall touch up their shabby signs in and about the waiting-room. SUNDAY-SCHOOL LANTERN. Stereopticon Illustrations of Biblical Lessons at the Third Congrega- tional Church. Tllustrated preaching is what Rev. F. B. Pullan of the Third Congregational Church believes in, and he carries his practice into the Sunday-school. The consequence is that some pretty large nudiences have been drawn into the rather unpretentious house of worship on Fifteenth sireet, between Valencia and Mission, and the Sunday- school has increased in membership to about 300 intelligent pupils.

The Exerclses at Old St. Mary’s Church Are Particularly Impressive. The feast of Saints Peter and Paul was appropriately celebrated yesterday in every Catholic church bearing these names. The occasion was also observed | in a few churches dedicated toothersaints, but that was due to some society under the patronage of Saints Peter and Paul, or to some altar erected in their memory. The 29th of June is the day set apart for this particular celebration, but as that date fell on Saturday this year the cere- monies were postponed until yesterday. The feast was observed at the Italian Church of Saints Peter and Paul, corner Dupont and Filbert streets, St. Peter’s on Twenty-fourth street, St. Paul’s in charge | of Father Connelly and old St. Mary's church. St. Agnes’ church, on the corner of Page street and Masonic avenue, also commemorated the occasion. The morning service at old St. Mary’s Fathers, drew a congregation that tested the cnpnci:[y]v of the commodious building. This church, which has but recently been repaired, was adorned with sanctuary or- naments, ferns and flowers. The_ mornini services began with the chanting of the Missa cantata and the singing of high mass by Rev. Father Otis. A special musical programme under the direction of Miss Mary A. Giorgiana was | rendered by the choir. The morning ses mon was delivered by Rev. Father Wy- man, the subject of "his text being the saints in whose honor the feast was cele- | brated. Appropriate evening services were beld by Rev. Father Clarke. THINKS SOCTALISM RIGHT, | ——— oo —_— Rev. Joseph E. Scott Discusses It From an Ethica] point of View. HIS IDEA OF COMPETITION. The Devil’s Method of Keeping Mankind at Constant Strife, " He Calls It. Rev. Joseph E. Scott discussed Socialism at the Metropolitan Tem ple last night from an ethical point of view. Mr. Scott is a stanch advocate of this theory of political economy. He stated his subject in this way: “Socialism ; Is it Right, or Is it Wrong?” and at once proceeded to give his reasons for believing it to be right. At the outset he explained that ‘‘no attempt to change the institutions of a people can be success: ful and abiding unless the fundamental principles of the proposed change be morally right.” In ages past, he said, men had endured wrong often blindly and hopelessly under the impression that it wasa part of nature, orof the necessary order of things. At last, however, humanity has learned that the source of all wrongs is simply ‘‘man’s inhumanity to man,”” and a growing in- telligence and quickened moral sense are making it more and more difficult to hide the real source of oppression. Con- sequently there is a general discontent among the masses, and a strong desire to alter institutions and adjust conditions. “Socialism” he defined as “an aim look- ing toward the permanent betterment of social conditions,” and its principles he said were those of ‘‘economic righteonsness.” He explained: It may be called a system of society in which 1abor and the products of labor are justly dis- tributed—or more briefly, “distributive tice.” Itis all the people sharing justly in the burdens, opportunities and privileges of life. It is each for all and all for each. It is co- operation in the chief productive ifdustries, combined with an equitable distribution of the products of industry. It is the golden rule in practical operation. The meaning of the word ‘“rizht” was then treated with some elaboration by the speaker, and he deduced trom ‘it all that the need of some universally established standard was plainly apparent. Christ's law of love, in his opinion, was the most perfect standard of right known among men. Incidentally he gave the railroads a rub in an evident allusion to the Pullman strike to show how some universal stand- ard of right is recognized and how the railroads try to divert public sympathy. Said he: When the railroads find it necessary to bring the most powerful tactics known against their striking employes they either goad the stri ers into overt acts of wrong. or burn their ¢ themselves and charge such acts to the strike He took a stand against the individual- istic school of political thought, and_con- trasted the mutnal relation and inter- dependence of the members of society with a popular idea that society ought to be a loose aggregation of independent in- dividuals, And to argue the natural sym- pathy that exists between all the units of society, and at the same time preclude any idea of individual isolation, he remarked When the Colima goes down ail humanity is touched and sorrow runs through the land. When in far distant Armenis a_great wrong is perpetrated the civilized world shudders aud cries out in indignation and horror. No man liveth unto himself alone. Socialism is right, philosophically right, moraily right in main’ taining the solidity of the face. “Agasn, socialism is right in its teachings as to property. 1t holds that property, apart from the common bounties of nature, is the product of labor, and that in all right and justice it be- longs to the producers. Apart from what others in the past have done or whet others in the present are doing, what groperty can one man, by himself alone, produce? Socialism takes into account thé "very fundamental economic truth that every item of wealth and capital is the product of the thought and toil of ages: that capital as a product is traceable only to society, and, therefore, by right and justice belongs to society. Socialism is right because it would abolish the iniquities of competition. True emulation is right. It’saim is excellence, in which the gain is not by another’s loss. But competition is the devil’s method of perpetuating and in- lensilyinilhe meanest and most brutal ele- ments in human nature. Comretltlon is the meanest method con- ceivable by which rational beings could under- take to provide for themselves the necessities, comforts and luxuries of lite. It is as wasteful of energy, of labor, of material productions and of life itself as a perpetual war, and far more demoralizing in its direct and incidental effects than the mere conflict of armiesin battle. It is the element of discord which makes abso- lutely 1mFossible a state of peace on earth and good will among men. It puts man against hisfellow-man iu perpetual strife for bread. It fosters the cunning by which tyrants rule. It breeds crime and {ifs results are beggared lives, blasted hopes and pauper graves. It is the trick by which the sordid and the selfish thrive and the generous and noble go down. Socialism is right in seeking to overthrow this monstrous madness. Finally Mr. Scott contended that social- ism is right because it would tend to elim- inate merely animal and essentially de- gradingincentives to effort and exalt man’s noble qualities, extending true democracy The Italian Church of Saints Peter and Paul, on Dupont and Filbert streets, opened the day’s exercises with high mass at 10:30 A. M. The officers of the mass were Rev. Father R. de Carolis, celebrant; Rev. Father de Masini, aeacon; Rev. Tather San Andraen, subdeacon. Father de Magini delivered a brief talk on the life of St. Peter. The music, under Professor Spadina, was specially prepared for the occasion and was rendered with excellent effect and feeling. At 7:30 o’clock vespers were sung znd the benediction pro- nounced. At St. Paul's, in the Mission, solemn high mass was celebrated by Rey. W. 0'Grady. Rev. M. D. Connolly was deacon and Rev. P. Duffy subdeacon.” The master of ceremonies was Thomas Branson. The sermon was preached by Rev. M. D. -Connolly, Father Mullegan being prevented from attending in the morning. Father Connolly told how Paul before his con- version was called Saul, and was of the tribe of Benjamin, a native of Tarsus, in Cilicia, and a pupil of Gamahel. Full of zeal for the law under the old dispensation he bitterly opposed the Christians. s he was traveling to Damascus to persecute them he was, on the way, converted by Christ,” said TFather Connolly. “How indefatigably he thenceforward worked in the vineyard of the Lord, together with St. Peter, and what dangers and persecutions derwent together no pen can Giorza’s “First Mass” was sung. Miss Amelia F. Quinn was the organist, and the following vocalists rendered the music: Sopranos—Miss M. F.

ELECTION COMMISSIONERS, Some of the Puzzles the Politicians Are Still Trying to Solve About Them. More than one thing is bothering the politicians in regard to the appointments to be announced by Mayor Sutro to-day at noon. They feel sure that James Denman, Democrat, and A. E. Castle, Republican, are to be.named as members of the Board of Election Commissioners. They also feel sure that James D. Phelan can be appointed if he wants to. Some of Mr. Phelan’s friends say that he will ac- cept the appointment. Others say that Mr. Phelan cannot afford to throw away his chance for the Governorship or of being made United States Senator by accepting a plaze that will prevent his being a can- didate for any office for at least three years and maybe five. Mr. Phelan himselt zaid last night that he had not been offered the appointment of Election Commissioner, but that he would meet Mayor Sutro this morning to discuss the matter. He could not now say whether in the event of the office being tendered he wounld accept it or not. Although he has %ren.y well made u his mind on the subject, he thought it would not seem exactly proper to an- nounce his determination in view of the conference to take falnce to-day. He was lull{ aware of the law on the subject of limiting an incumbent to that office for a number of years and disqualifying him from taking any other oftice. He had read the law and its provisions would enter i_nug his final determination on the sub- ject. There seems to be little doubt that Sam- uel Foster, the wholesale grocer, will be the fourth man. J. E. Daley was strongly backed, but the fact that heis a politician has been employed against him. I would like to see Mr. Daley appointed myself,” said County Clerk Curry yester- day, “but I don’t think it will come that way. Unless I am mistaken, Mr. Koster isthe man.” Reiistnr Hinton is still wondering whether he had better contest the appoint- ments or not. He would like to be maike clerk of the new board. If he is he will abandon all ideas of carrying an objection to their appointment into the courts.
