THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JANUARY 27,. 1896 BEATS WHO ARE ON BEATS The Merchants’ Exchange Anxi- ous That All Officials Should Pay Their Debts. LIVERMORE BADLY FOOLED. A Glass Agent Used Its League of Progress to Bid Against Martinez. OaxrAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Jan. 26. The Merchants’ Exchange of Oakland has inangurated a war against people who feed at the public crib and who dodge the col- lector when their bills are due. The move- ment has taken active shape and a com- mittee is now at work compiling a list of beats. The exchange will also k to have the next Legislature modify the present insolvency bill. They contend that the present legislation offers too much inducement to certain people to avoid pay: ing their just debts. That the position zen by the exchange is not without foun- dation has recently been proved. A short time ago a county official whois in receipt of a good salary filed a petition in insoly- ency, and an investigation held yesterday into the conduct of a police officer proved that the official owes nearly three times as much now as he did when apppinted, and be has been drawing $100 a month Tight along. These facts have opened the mer- chants’ eyes and they will endeavor to profit by the experience. MThere is a rule of the Police and Fire departments that the members must pay their bills or suffer dismissal, but the rule has not been applied to any other city or county department. 1t has long been considered a piece of class legislation that a fireman with §75 per month sihould be made to pay for his groceries while a county official with §5000 & year should be ree to beat everybody he desires. 1t so happens that the secretary of the Exchange is also a Schiool Director, and he has promised that he will use all his en- deavor toward having a rule passed that a school-teacher shall be liable to dismissal who does not pay legitimate debts. While this will be all' that can be done locally, the merchants will try to have the in- solvency act so amended as toreach higher game. W Durine the past twelve months several gents representing ‘‘large interests’ anx- ious to locate in Alameda County have made their appearance in Oakland and elsewhere. They have represented gun- makers, boxmakers, bicycle-makers and glassblowers. They have invariably inter- the various public bodies in the cities nd towns, and have been given an oppor- | ity to display their samples and to ex- their alleged value. By talking bly about the great advantage that d inure to the town where they located , the increased circulation of money the addition to the population, they have generally created favorable impres- sions. In every instance, however, they have been making the same offer in a dozen different towns and asking for in ducements, and by bidding one community gainst the other they have finally found a very generous offer. The last case on record bappened last Wednesday night at Livermore. An agent for a large elass works was anxious to locate near the Corral Hollow mines, and would employ over a hundred people before the end of two vears. He had given considerable attention to glass factories and had found that there was a greater need for one in California than for any otber kind of factory. The canners, brewers and druggists and orchardists are large consumers, and sufficient business conld be obtained to keep a first-class plant running for at least ten months in the yea The Livermore League of Progress called a special meeting, and were to make a definite statement to the agent and were to close the deal. Meeting night came and a gooaly at- tendance was present. After waiting 1y an hour the agent failed to appear and the Livermore folks concluded that e had, like most folks who disappear, met with foul play. Great was their sur- vrise a couple of days later to learn that ile they were waiting for the glass agent, he was at Martinez teiling the people that he had a semi-concession from ermore. The League of Progress denies that he has a semi orany otier ind of concession from Livermore, and says that until he apologizes for his lack | of respect they want nothing more to do with him. S. W.

New Men Will Be Given a Chance on Wednesday to Show Their Skill. The Philosophical Union Has Secured the Services of a Noted Scholar for Next Term. BERKELEY, Cawn, Jan. 26.—The base- ball season at the University of California will open next Wednesday afiernoon with & game between the sophomore and fresh- man classes. The weather having been so stormy since the beginning of the spring term it fias not been possible for the play- ers to do much team work on the dia- mond. The captains of the two nines which will take the initiative for the sea- son of 96 at Berkeley next Weanesday have not yet announced their players. Organization for the season’s worl far irom complete on account of the inability of the men, especially in the freshman class, to show what they are capable of doing. This lack of development of plans is due almost wholly to the inclement | weather. The colleges at Berkeley will have in addition to the teams from Stanford and the Reliance and Olympic clubs danger- ous rivals in the nines from the law and dental colleges. The prospects for bril- liant work from these two latter teams seem IoOTe encouraging than at any other season since the nfl‘fiined colleges identi- fied themselves with the baseball league. This step in advance is due to the secur- ing of several veteran players on the diamond. : The law college nine will be made up chiefly from the junior class. 3 Walthal, the captain, giant guard on last year’s 'varsity football team, will act as pitcher. He has the reputation of I?e— ing second only to Bert Oliver of the Re- liance Club in swiftness. Kemp, alternate pitcher, has some evasive curyes in his repertoire, and being a 10 4-5 seconds | sprinter, he is exceptionally good at mak- i 5. 4 : nfiob;'sintc'ner the most proquneut aspi- rant is Kennedy, formerly of Santa Clara.

COLONEL SUTER ARRIVES, The Successor of George H. Mendell as Government Engineer. Served Through the War and Had a Long Experience in Charge of Government Work, Lieutenant-Colonel Charles R. Suter, who has been ordered here to succeed Colonel George H. Mendell, retired, has | arrived and is staying at the Occidental. Colonel Suter will be in charge of the engineering work for the Federal Govern- ment in this district. He comes from 8t. Lonis, where he has been the engineer in charge of the Government work in that locality. He was born in New York May 5, 1842, was appointed a cadet of the military academy at West Point July 1, 1858, grad- uating there among the first in his class in 1862. He was appointed a lieutenant of engineers and ordered to the Army of the Potomac, where he remained until the early partof 1863, when he was ordered to the Department of the South, where he served 10 the end of the war. In 1865-66 he was on duty examining the condition of the forts on the Georgia and South Carolina coast, on survey work on the Mississippi 1866-68, and on duty at Cincinnati in 1869-70. After that he had charge of the improvements on the Missis- sippi, Missouri and Arkansas rivers, and engineer of the Fifteenth Lighthouse Dis- trict from 1870 to 1881. Since then he has been on duty at 8t. Louis. Colonel Suter was appointed a second Jieutenant of engineers .?gne 17, 1862, first lieutenant March 3, 1863, captain June 17, 1864, major October 10, 1871, and lieutenant- colonel January 10, 1857 He ranks No. 11 among the lientenant-colonels, and his re- tiring date is in 1906.

BISHOP GOODSELL SPEAKS. The Eloquent Methodist Divine Is Heard by a Large Audience. Forty.Third Year. The forty-third anniversary of the estab- lishment of the Young Men’'s Christian Association in San Francisco was com- memorated with a praise service and special exercises in the association auditorium. Impressive as the special exercises were, the principal feature was the splendid an- niversary address by Rev. D. A. Goodsell, D.D., LL.D., resident Bishop of the Metho- dist Episcopal Church. The hall was filled with young men and old, and there were many ladies in the audience. All participatea ‘with fervor, remembering the occasion was in com- memoration of a happy event in the his- tory of San Francisco’s Young Men’s Christian Association. Upon the platform gomery streets, and in ’58 to 620 Washing- ton street. In 64 the association pur- chased a lot at 522 California street and erected a building for itself on that site— the first building owned by the Y. M. C. A. in the United States. In January, 1868, ground was broken for the building on Sutter street, which was dedicated in November of the following year. Since that time the history of the association has been one of progress and good work. Branches have been established through- out the City, new features introduced and constantly enlarged for more efficient work, while the spiritual well-being of its members was improved with the social and temporal aims of the association. 1n September, 1894, the present magrificent building on Mason and Ellis streets was completed at a cost of $335000, and now the San Francisco association has one of the most complete and most imposing as- sociation buildings in the country. SIXTEEN YEARS OF WORK. The Y. M. C. A. Anniversary Celebrated in Oakland Churches. OAKLAND, CAL., Jan. 26.—The seven- teenth anniversary of the Young Men’s Christian Association was celebrated in as many churches in this city to-day. The annual report was read at each service and sermons delivered in keeping with the celebration. Secretary Noel H. Jacks compiled the | report and it shows a yvear of active and successful work. His assistant, Mr. Jack- son, has also done his share toward the success of the association. *‘The work has been largely one of recon- struction,’”’ says the report, *‘but vigorous activity has been noticeable in every de- partment. The association takes its place in Oakland to-day as an indispensable SECRETARY NOEL H. JACKS. PROMINENT OFFICERS OF THE [Reproduced from photographs.] P! SSISTANT SECRETARY F. A, JACKSON. Y. M. C. A,, OAKLAND BRANCH, were quite a large number of gentlemen who haye been prominently identified with religious movements as well as Y. M. C. A. work. The cerernonies began with a service of vraise led by D. M. Lawrence, at which the congregation sang ““The Bauner of the Cross,” “Rescue the Perishing,” “‘Onward, Christian Soldiers,” “I Hear Thy Wel- come Voice,” and “Labor On.” The praise service over the anniversary exercises began with J. J. Valentine pre- siding. Allsang as an introduction the hymn *‘Coronation,” after which Rev. W. A. Rader, pastor of the Third Congrega- tional Church, read the.twelfth chapter of Romans as a scripture lesson. Rev. R.J. Briggs of Centenary Methodist Church led in prayer, and a quartet sang selected hyms. : Mr. Valentine addressed the audience briefly, announcing that the meeting was held {0 celebrate tne forty-third anniver- sary—and then reviewing the history of the Y. M. C. A. throughout the world. He said that the year just closed was a favor- able one for the association in every land, and new friends were springing up on all sides. He introduced the subject of debt upon the new puilding and declared with emphasis that it was pressing hard upon the mmnagement,and unless the balance of $28,- 000 were paid by friends of the institutoin there was grave danger that the building would have to be incumbered. An appeal was made for contributions that the asso- ciation could proceed in its path un- trammeled by financial difficulties. The latter portion of Mr. Valentine’s re- marks were in favor of education and moral influence as bestowed upon young men by the association. The hymn, “While the Days Are Going By,” was sung by the audience standing, and then Bishop Goodsell was intro- ducad. The Bishop hegan by saying he was glad that he was permitted to speak before a San Francisco audience on the Young Men’s Christian Association. 1t was a joy, he saiq, that he could stand before the audience and s?enk the word of truth. Turning to Mr. Valentine he said he be- lieved that when a business man stood up to plead the cause of Christ his words had a greater weight even than those of the minister of the Gospel, who was too often looked upon as a paid advocate of a stated cause. And so he was most deeply im- pressed by the address of the president. “Why is it that when you enter a large city traffic carries you through and you first see the lower forces before seeking or finding the spiritual?” he asked. Into cities railroads pass at the backs of resi- dences, by low saloons. These considera- tions present the fact that men are sup- ported, influenced, carried on by forces; and that men who know the most of the forces in the world to-day are most suc- cessful. The Bishop said he believed these forces could be harnessed in behalf of Christ. The Y. M. C. A. was the outcome of forces around men and was harnessing those energies. Bishop Goodsell described his impres- sions of San Francisco. What impressed him deepest was the cable-car system—the car that moved along without visible forces, no puff of steam, no flash of electricity. He searched for the force that carried those cars along. ““When I looked up to the sun I ex- claimed: There, there is the source of power. And when I saw globes, worlds, whirling about it I saw the source of power was beyond and I knew it came from the arm of God.” Fairness demands that all forces should be investigated, and if there is an energy in this City that would make a man iook into himself that force is well wortnhy of study. Itis the power of the Holy Spirit. The one thing men need %o know is themselves. Every one feels that the greatest advantage that can come to any soul is to step out of itself, contemplate itselt and compare it with some ideal. These forces are around men and the great point of education is to know how to use them. A great thing has been done fora soul when jt has been made to look upon itself. study itself and by comparison see how it may be improved. In this City thereis an awful waste of power somewhere; there are numbers of men and women piaying with toys with- out a realization of the ideal of Christ. ‘Wherever are churches, Christian associa- tions, there are the realization, the devel- opment of forces. £ Wealth had not been laid liberally enough at the door of the association hail to make it the institution that it should be for a home for young men, and Bishop Goodsell prayed that pzople would come forward and support it as it deserved. The services were concluded with a benediction pronounced by Rev. Dr. Coyle. The San Francisco branch of the associ- ation was organized in September, 1853, and first located over the Postuflice on Clay street, opposite the plaza. Monthly meetings were held in the little German and it continues to bear every year for | Early in ’56 the church” on Dupont street, near Pine. ! uarters changed to Armory building, Sacramento nnd_ ont- | agency of the church in reachi and in- fluencing the young men who throng our oity. Our membership and the young men who attend the various; meetings, talks, lectures, receptions, etc., represent many nationalities and classes'of men. “‘Young men are constantly coming and going, and during the past twelve months many have been influenced by us, who to- day are scattered throughout the world. The association has sougnt to provide in Oakland a social headquarters for young | men, where they can spend their leisure time not only in pleasant intercourse under good influences but with every help for mind, body and spiritual life. +It consults not only the tastes of young men in this respect but also their needs. For the social it has healthful and at- tractive amusements; to the studious it offers a well-stocked reading-room, educa- tional classes and lectures; for those seek- ing physical exercise and healthful recrea- tion it presents the gymnasium with trained instructor. Around all the asso- ciation seeks, to throw sound moral and religious influences. *‘Prevention is better than cure” is the great principle under- lying the work of the Young Men’s Chris- tian Asscciation. . “‘The year 1895 witnessed some substan- tial developments in: the association which would take too much time to en'arge upon, so I can only give a few details, but they will show in some degree the magni- tude of the work. This compiling of figures, however, is only as an index finger pointing 10 results that cannot be computed. When we report that such a number have come into the building dur- ing the year or that so many have at- tended our lectures, the numbers convey- to our mind some idea of the value set upon the privileges offered, but eternity alone can reveal the true magnitude, the far-reaching importance of the work. “In the sgixty»seven religious meetings beld in the building during the present year, there were present 10,541 men. Com- pare these figures with 1394, when only 3200 attended religious meetings, and we see the advance made in the strictly reli- gious work. 5 “In the evening educational classes we have 163 students enrolled in eleven branches of practical study. The attrac- tions found in the gymnasium and bath- rooms are found to be potent factors with the one great object of the work in view. Cleanliness was not the least of the vir- tues practiced by the members, for 7020 baths were taken, an average of twenty a day. “‘Our present needsare: First, a more general moral support from Christian people. Hundred of Christian men in Oakland who might sustain a membership from year to year do not. ‘‘Second, more contributors to the funds of the general work. Last year only thirty- four persons outside the membership aided Lhe association financially. “To meet current obligations the trustees were compelled to borrow during the year. This coming year they feel that this ought not to be done, and they therefore hope to raise a much larger ‘amount of ‘money. The business management of the association is vested in a board of trustees, composed of fifteen Christian business men, of whom J. Edward Collins is presi- dent, and the affairs of the institution are conducted on strictly business principles.” THE FIRE PATROL. Tuteresting Figures From the Twenty- First Annual Report. The twenty-first annual report of the Underwriters’ Fire Patrol for the year ending on the last day of last December is an instructive document for all who are interested in fire department matters. The report of Superintendent John F. O. Comstock shows that the force consists of a lientenant, a sergeant, seven privates and four on the auxiliary force with two substitutes. During the year the patrol responded to 458 bell alarms, 36 stills, 32 false alarms, used 15 extinguishers, extin- guished 7 fires, spread 1403 covers and was in service 409 hours and 49 minutes, The losses by fire on buildings amounted -to $476,344 46, and the insurances on build- ings affected to $3,256,591 97, the losses on &D{;‘l:;eln‘l $800,736 13, insurance $1,831,- The insurance Jnid in building losses was ,066 81 and on contents $590,680 71. The losses on building and contents not in- sured was $321,057 51. The report also gives a hst of each fire and cause and the number of alarms sent in from each station since 1875.
