Senator Perkins of then plained all he knew eeds of the estuary and of an ade- ppropriation and Colonel Mendell 1 the rest. “We will ask for a million dollars for ary,’” said Senator Perkins, “but I how much less we will get.

Adolph He arrested yesterday for selling lottery This is the first case of a white man’s arrest since Chief Lloyd began to raid the Chinese joints a month ago. Heine is one of the best known characters in town. He is crippled and wheels himself around in a chair. Everybody in Oakland has known his business for years, but he disregarded the last warning given him and was arrested. To-day he pleaded not guilty and waived a jury trial. This was a surprise to the >rosecuting Attorney, as it was expected that Heine would atlemlpt. to work on the sympathy of a jury. He will be tried Monday. Genuine Starvation. Mrs. A. L. Mills applied to the Super- visors to-day for help. She was so weak from lack of food tbat she could scarcely stand. She asked for food, as she had eaten nothing for some time. Mrs. Mills, in reply to a question, said that it was true that she did have some property, but that she had deeded it to a man named Lynds for $1 in consideration of his promising to afford her a home while she lived.” She also claimed that Lynds had levanted with her deeds and is now supposed to be in Orezon. It afterward was discovered that Lynds is the poor woman’s brother. Supervisor Pelouze will look after the comfort of the woman. The Second Continuance. County Auditor Myron Whidden was to have been arraigned this morning before Judge Frick upon the nine indictments returned by the Grand Jury. His attor- ney waived the reading of the indict- ments, but no plea was eniered. At the request of his attorney the matter was postponed for a week to atlow the prepara- tion of any motion that may be desired. Ernest Mayrisch Jr. pleaded not guilty to the charge of embezzlement banging over him and was granted a continuance of a week, with permission to withdraw the plea if so desired. A Big Syndicate.

DR, RADER MAY BE CALLED Why All the Eastern Pastors Declined to Come to Oakland. The Congregation Has All Along | Halted Between Two Opinions. OARLAND OFFICE, SAN FraNcisco CALL,) 908 Broadway, Sept. 2 ) The public resignation of Rev. William Rader of the First Congregational Church, published in to-day’s CaLy, has caused general atteation to be directed toward the ministerial affairs of that church, and a very interesting state of affairs has been | unearthed. ¥ | There are two factions in the church | which may be rightfully classed as spirit- | ual and aristocratic. The spiritual section is content with Mr. Rader, but the aristo- | cratic element wants a man whom they consider will be a match for Rev. Dr. Coyle of the First Presbyterian Church. The committee of nine, which was ap- yfoinrcd to select a pastor to succeed Rev. or. McLean, has not made any material progress. On several occasions the mem- | bers have almost induced an Eastern di- vine to occupy a vacant pulpit, but the ne- | gotiations have invariably fallen through just when their consummation appeared to be at hand. It now appears that the pastors with whom negotiations have been held have been informed of the feeling toward Mr. Rader, and have consequently refused to come West. The resignation of Mr. Rader yesterday | has forced a crisis. On October 15 the pul- pit will be entirely vacant, and it will be | necessary for the church to do something. Williams preached at the ght, and at the close of his ev. church las sermon ic ed “committee of nine” have in Mr. ong ally in their confessedly ardu. we are all allies of our brother any service for the kingdom to which he may be clearly called. Were we in a confer- ence in which under the solemnities of these critical days we were asking the Holy Ghost to show us what iorm of “istitation chlurch would best help us meet our many sided duties | to_the community, there would be but one voice as to his fitness for a large place. | _His plattorm abilities, his hieh impulses for | civic reform, and his eager championship of every righteous cause, are acknowledged Easl and West. But when we remember that this church twenty-three years ago, with its 300 members, taxed every energy of the able and faithful M an 1t seems like cruelty amid the ns of Oakiand, an Athens with every modern boon, to think of thrusting the care of 1200 eager and restless souls upon any | one man who may yet be called young. As the trend of our instructions to our chosen committee is to find one man whose broad shoulders are equel to such a trust, let us be true to the record of the years, follow Brother Rader’s exhortation and act with such an in- | telligent regard for the kingdom of the Cruci- | fied One, as well as for the churches on this beautiful coast, that we may not mAr our op- portunities to help them in the days to come. The impression now is very general that a call will be extended to Rev. William Rader to fill the pulpit for one year. BAPTIED IN A BATHTUR work, Novel Ceremony Performed by the New Sect of Watchers. ! ey | They Are Preparing for the World to Come to an End Next Year. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FRrANCISCO CALL,] 908 Broadway,'Sept. 23. | | A unique baptismal ceremony took | place Sunday afternoon at the Whole Holiness Mission on San Pablo avenue, | conducted by Rev. F. F. Young, the pastor and superintendent, The candidate for baptism was Mrs. Lasher of Highland Park, East Oakland, who was accompanied by afriend, Mrs, Palmer, also of Highland Park. The ceremony was rather out of the usual order. A bathtub served for a bap- tismal font, and the minister found it rather awkward to immerse the lady with- out being in danger of letting her acci- dentally slip, but he managed the affair as nicely as circumstances would permit. The assembled congregation, though small, Was a very earnest one. The ceremony opened by _singing anding on the Promises of God” as the candidate stepged into the bathtub, fol- lowed by Mr. Young, becomingly attired for the services. The baptismal ceremony being com- pleted, the congregation pledged them- selves to henceforth be “whole or four- fold Christians'’; to separate themselves from all creeds and sects, to be called a “‘peculiar people” for Christ, and to re- ceive the Master when he comes in 1896, The meeting closed with prayer, reading from the Scrifi;tures, and invitation to be vresent at the feet-washing service' one evening next week. The “four-fold Christians” are the same sect as ‘“The Watchers,” who created some interest last Thursday by declaring that the world would come to an end on the an- niversary of that day. The leader, “Rev.” J. Young, has rented a hall on San Pablo avenue, and is sustaining the mission on faith and incidentally with $1000 given him by Mrs. Wakeheld of East ‘Oakland, for the purpose of founding the sect. She also donated a lot on which to build a school, to be conducted by Young. There are several people living in the settlement, and many of their ceremonies are some- what unique. . Rev. Auna H. Shaw. On next Thursday evening, the 26th, at Gol- den Gate Hall, 625 Sutter street, Rev. Anna H.

No extra’ charge for reserved seats, MRS,B00THONBLOOMERS The Salvationist Commander’s Wife Coming to the Coast. ADVOCATING DRESS REFORM. High-Heeled Boots, She Says, Are Very Favorable to Corns. 0axrAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL, 908 Broadway, Sept. 23. Mrs. Ballington Booth, wife of the com- mander of the Salvation Army in the United States, will be in Oakland on Octo- ber 22. In anticipation of her arrival all the corps on the Pacitic Coast are making great efforts to induce every Salvationist to conform to Mrs. Booth’s ideas of dress, on which subject she is very firm and ex- plicit. At an officers’ council held in San Fran- cisco last week the subject of women’s dress, with special reference to bloomer sleeves, was handled without gloves. At last night’s meeting in this, city En- sign Reid spoke very forcibly on the same subject. In the .current Pacific Coast War Cry a short editorial deals with the same sub- ject. 2 Recently Mrs. Booth issuea a circular letter setting forth with much distinctness Est what Salvation lassies should wear. er ideal woman soldier’s uniform pre- sents a strong contrast to the many pretty and fashionable blue and red dresses and coquettish little bonnets worn with so much naivette by the comely littie lassies on the streets of Oakland and San Fran- cisco. At the mention of the word bloomers Mrs. Ballington Booth, when speaking to a largeaudience of ladies last week, created a sensation by saying: “If Icould get hold of the new woman, or the so-called new woman, I would make her change her dress the first thing. I would take her big sleeves and make them into dresses for the children of the slums. I am sure a good many little dresses could be made out of those sleeves. As for some of her other rarments, which I will not mention here, Y would take them away and give them to the sex to which they belong.” In addressing the lassies ou the proper regulation dress she is'quite pronounced, saying: *To make our uniform successful we must have a uniformity of uniform. Nothing looks worse and nothing is more absurd than to see a Salvationist with a dress cut in the latest fashion wearing the bonnet, yet having other things about her which are worldly and out of keeping. Do not let any point of your uniform be a contradiction to others. For instance, the bonnet above bangs, crimping and frizzing | direct contradiction to the precepts and ideas of the Salvation Army uniform. *No jewelry should be worn except the wedding ring. We do not wear it for | show, but as an_outward sign of a pledge made before God. . “Earrings and watch-charms must not be wora. “Lace is to be avoided as worldly and expensive. “Velvet or silk worn on cuffs and collar of a dress, is not uni: “High-heeled shoes and pointed toes are not suitable for Salvationists, on account f the marching and walking'to be done. | High heels have often caused sprained | ankles. It shoula be remembered that | after much walking the feet swell, hence | a comfortable snoe must allow for this or cornswill be the result. “I should advise our women to avoid short skirts in front, as we have to stand on high platiorms, and it is hardly modest: The dress skirt should reach quite down to the feet, below the ankle. “Light blue is not uniform; the very tion color. Do not buy black; avoid it as much as possible. The army does not believe in wearing crape or heavy mourning. “Kid gloves look absurdly out of place on a Salvation Army soldier, and should be avoided. “In making dresses avoid making the hideous high sleeves, which are so much LATEST BERKELEY ITEMS, Athletic University Mem- bers Imminent. It Is All Over the Proceeds of a ProJected Thanksgiving Thea- ter Party. BERKELEY,. CaL., Sept. 23.—War is imminent between the staff of '97’s Blue and Gold and the University Athletic As- sociation, over the purpose of the latter named to give a theater party on the even- ing following the Thanksgiving football game with Stanford, the entire proceeds to be devoted to paying off the debt of nearly $2000 now standing against the' association as a result of theBastern trip of the team last spring. Last year the proceeds of the accus- tomed post-football game theater party were divided between athletics and the Blue and Gold, two-thirds or about $600 going to football, boating, baseball and tennis, and a third or about $300 going to '96's Blue and Gold. The year previous, by special _consideration, the proceeds were divided between the two institutions, like and like; but durinfi the entire num- ber of years preceding the Blue and Gold was wholly self-sustaining. The athletic association’s argument, which it has presented in a well-defined manner to the Blue and Gold staff this year, is that as a result of the Eastern ad- venture it is much in need of financial aid, and in consequence has decided to give a ‘theater party on its own res%onsibility. On the other hand, the Blue and Gold adherenis maintain that a precedent has been set whereby they may be assisted to meet the demands made of them for the publication of their annual, and that the athletic association should by no means at- tempt to change the established custom, even though embarrassed. “The announcement that the athletic as- sociation purposed giving the theater party was made last week through the columns of Tug CaLL, &nd since then a silent but determined fight has been going on be- tween the two organizations, and this afternoon a final decision was arrived at by the athletic committee as to their plan. Some of the blue and gold supporters have expressed their determination to bring the mnzle:rt totthg attention clf tehe’assocmted students at their very earliest opportunit; and fight the matter to an hsue?po i Excited Fraternity Men. Late this evening a party of about thirty fraternity men, representing a number of the eleven secret organizations of the uni- versity, came to the chapter-house of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, of which Owen 8. Case, editor '97's Blue and Gold, is a member, and demanded an explanation as to why he mpyomd a non-frat. man 1 the '97 class election to-day. They sent a arty of three into the house to bring ase out to the street and then tried to induce him to go up to the next cormer where the crowd stood, with the evident intention of hazing him. He would not go, and finally the party came to where he was and a spokesman, the hair and the wearing of bangs is in | darkest shade of navy blue is the regula-, stepping forward, demanded an explana- tion as to why he lent his aid to a non- frat. man when a frat. man wasin the’field. He gave no explanation further thau that he was justified in taking the stand he did. Seeing that they could get nothing out of him they left’ the scene and tramped through “the streets for several hours, making the night hideous with their yells. The men in the field for the junior pre: dency were Dean, a Zeta Psiman, and gmig, a non-fraternal man. It seems that when Case was elected to the editorship of the go]lege annual the fraternities supported im to a very great extent, but it hap- pened that Craig, the man who was elected to-day to the 97 presidency, was also in the race for the editorship, but, of course, was_defeated. Case promised to lend his aid in behalf of a Phi Gamma Delta man if he ran for the office of junior. At the eleventh hour the Zeta Psi put up Dean and asked Case’s influence, but he had already taken a hand in the political gsme and pledged himself to Craig. Dean’s efeat was taken up by some of the other fraternity members, who surposed making it warm for the “B. and G.” editor, but changed their course before going too far. Whether or not Case had much to do with the result of the election is aquestion, but those who appeared 2t his fraternity house were evidently more than slightly enraged. News From the Gridiron. The football men at the university are not turning out for practice in as large numbers and as regularly as the captain and manager consider they ought. Forty- five suits have been distributed among the players, and only about half that number of men appear for daily traiping. This means that at least twenty suits lie idle at every practice, which is considered unfair to those who wish to work on the field, but who are not able to do so on account of having no suits. Hereafter a strict ac- count will be kept of all men who have suits and who do not appear for regular prectice, and their suits willibe taken from them and given to those who will come out regularly. In the freshman class alone there are thirty-five who have been recommended by Mr. Magee, the physical director, as possessing the proper qualifications for making good football men. Together with the members of the other classes, Berkeley may be said to bhave at least 100 men who are capable of doing creditable work on the gridiron. It is the idea of Captain Sher- man to have at least three men for each position, so that if any are injured or break training rules others will be on hand to | take their places. Twenty-three men were on the field this afternoon. A fence is being built around the field, | and bleachers are being erected on the west side for the accommodation of visitors. i Coach Butterworth is expected to arrive from New Haven next Wednesday morn- ing, the 25th inst. In all probability a delegation from the university will go as far as Port Costa to meet him. The date for the proposed reception to be tendered him has not yet been announced. Novelty in Wine-Making. The agricnltural experiment station of the university is in receipt of a humber of valuable samples of wine ferments from Europe with which they intend to experi ment, having the purpose in mind of rec- ommending the best of tRese to the wine- growers of the State next season. Six varieties of yeast have been im- ported, viz.: Bordéaux, Burgundy, Al- giers, Chianti, Sauterne and Johannesberg. It is the intention to test each kind in_the locality to_which it is most appropriate. The Asti Wine Company, the Fountain Grove Wine Company, K. Dresel and Kor- bel Bros. of Sonoma County will make thorough tests of their value. Messrs, Keyes, Beringer and Staniey of Napa, Messrs. Baldwin, Doyle, Le Franc and Wehner of Santa Clara County, J. Hague of Santa Cruz, John Swett of Contra Costa County and others are preparing to see what these yeasts, which are so highly thought of in Europe, will do in Califor- nia. F. T. Bioletti, a viticulturist in the de- partment, has turnished the directions for using pure yeasts. Junior Class Election. The class election held this afternoon by the class of '97 resulted as follows: Presi- dent, C. F, Craig; first vice- president, William 1. Hupp; second vice-president, Miss Sanderson; treasurer, C. H. B. Laughlin; secretary, J. E. Gregory; ser- geant-at-arms, Fred Magee; directors target practice, the target being a stick in the ground. He got in the way and' not being quick enough received the bullet in his spoulder. The boys fled when they saw what had bappened. The lad is rest- ing easy this afternoon and will recover if blood-poisoning does not-set in. Boating News. Matters are moving briskly in boating circles. There is to be a race on Labor Day, October 7, for the junior champion- ship and siiver medal of the Alameda Boat Club, between Al Bullion and William Henchman, ia gutrigger skiffs, A.S. Pem- broke, who made such an excellent show- ing at Sacramento on Admission Day, will challenge the winner. The Alameda Boat Club will hold a grand regatta on Thanksgiving Day, in which all the rowing clubs from Stockton, Sacra- ment, San Francisco and Oakland, will par- ticipate. It is proposed to show that Ala- meda has not only the fastest yacht but also the best oarsmen. Jealous of His Wife. E. E. Kogelmeier of San Francisco went befcre Justice Morris this morning and swore to a complaint for the arrest of George Ball, a photographer, on_a charge of disturbing the peace. Kogelmeier ac- cuses Ball of having alienated the affec- tions of his wife and comes over to Ala- meda every Sunday in the hope of catch- ing a glimpse of her. Ball ordered the husband away and promised him a good thrashing, hence the complaint of Kogel- meier. A Lost Boy. George Nethercott, living at 310 Boehmer street, North Alameda, found & boy wandering near the canal yesterday afternoon, and took him home, where he will be kept until called for.

LATE NEWS OF ALAMEDA The Encinal Yacht Club’s Smoker in Honor of the El Sueno. Economy WIi1l Be Considered In the Location of a Postoffice Apartment. ALAMEDA, CaL., Sept. 23. — The members of the Encinal Yacht Club held a smoker for members Saturday night in honor of the challenge cup re- cently won by Commodore Leonard’s El Bueno. There were fully fifty members present, and several of the talent. There were songs and selections by the Reliance Glee Club; several pleasing airs were ren- dered by Youngberg’s Mandolin Club, and a general jolly time was had. Plans were discussed which will make the Encifial Yacht Club one of the most complete, ]s;pnciouu and cozy clubs on San Francisco ay. » An addition 30x70 is proposed, and will include a double bowling-alley, a billiard and pool room and card and che:s rooms. There will also be a series of bathrooms. Piles have already been driven and work on the superstruéture will shortly be com- menced. To be sure of winning the cup again, in fact, to keep it, now it is here, it was announced that three, and possibly S1X, new achts would be built, from which a selection could be made. There. is also to be a cruise next Saturday, and every yacht in the fleet is expected to go. A poem by Hervey Darneal, the poet lau- reate, was read during the evening. The City Trustees. The city electrician presented his de- layed report to-night, and it was favor- ably commented upon by the Trustees. It is the first report on the electric light plant and makes a good showing, silencing the critics, who have persistenly main- tained that the plant has been steadily drawing upon the treasury. The protest against the opening of Buena Vista ave- nue, west of Webster street, was overruled. The Postoffice Location. According to Postmaster Stoddard, the location of the Postoffice 1s to be decided strictly on the grounds of economy and not of convenience to the public. The City Trustees will take action this evening on the petition circulated by Park-street mer- chants, which asks the board to recall the bid it submitted to the Postal Inspectors to rent a room in the new City Hall for a Postoffice.
