METHODISTS' TROUBLES Talk of Dissatisfaction on Ac- count of E. A. Girvin's Doctrines. Opinions of the President of the Board of Education on Male Teachers. KELEY, CAL., June 2.—The report s spread akroad in Berkeley yesterday at a split was about to take place in the ity Methodist Church asa result of the teachings of E. A. Girvin to his Bible class as to the near approach of the mil- lennium. A canvass among some of the prominent and active members to-day failed to revealanything but harmony in the circles of the church. A new Bible class has been formed besides the one conducted by Mr. Girvin, but its members say that the pur- pose in view when the class was formed was the training of teachers, and not to offzet the views with regard to the second coming of Christ as held by Mr. Girvin. Mr. Girvin isa San Francisco business man and a deacon of the church, who has peen conducting some of the pastoral BER work during the absence in Europe of | Rev. Dr. Bentley. ¥avors Male Teachers. BERKELEY, CaL, June 2—In a lengthy and exhaustive report to the Board of Education last night President Boone recommended that a four-year high school course be instituted instead of the present three-year course. He argued that an additional year is necessgry in order that pupiis may be fully prepared for the university. He advised the chang- ing of the regular pinth grade course so 2s to make it & first year of a four-year high school course. % President Boone also declared in favor appointing a City Superintendent of h00ls, his duties to be that of oversee- ing the various'schools of the town. He believed this to be a necessity on account of the lack of uniformity between the schools which at present exists be- cause of the differences in teachers and the lack of a complete, barmonious system. Mr. Boone also placed himself on record as being in favor of the employment of a iarger proportion of male teachers, not because of the inability of the women 8o far as teaching was concerned, but on ac- count of the demand for masculinity in the presence of a body of self-assertive youths. He said: “There should be the pos- sible look of thunder in the man, as well as the soft octave voice of the woman.” The Congregational Church. BERKELEY, CaL., June 2.—The trus- tees of the First Congregational Church are about to begin the erection of a chapel and Sunday-school room adjoining the main edifice, to cost in the neighborhood of $4000.

WILL NOT STAND " UPON HIS HEAD Rev. Mr. Small Cannot Make an Acrobat of Himself. EVEN FOR THE LORD. Rev. Edwards Davis Is Willing to Become a Fool “for Christ's Sake.” |RIVALRY AND REVIVALRY. An Interesting Difference Between Two Pastors of the Same D-:nomination. 0OaxrLAND OFFICE SAN Fraxcisco CaLy,) 908 Broadway, June 2. The respective pastors of the churches of the Christian dsnomination are both the sum of $132,862 67, which was appropri- ated to the various counties, Fresno receiving $24,478 87, leaving an_apparent discrepancy of ¥15,06426, or about 60 per cent of the amount paid. We believe that an experting of the State books woula save to this county the greater portion of this amount and the proportion on #ll demands now being or heretofore made against the county for moneys paid in prior to July, 1868, if notalready refunded, and that where reiunded the same be recovered by the counties, if the statute of limitations does not run. Your county received or should have re- | ceived §7374'80 from the State, and we be- lieve that the result of the examination would save your county in the same proportion as our own. \ We believe that a thorough ‘investigation of swamp-land matters, as above, and also subse- uent to the time payments were made to the State, would result in a large saving to the counties interested, and we believe that it would be to the financial benefit of your county that you appoint a committee to confer with us and otners on this matter. The Murphy Estate. OAKLAND, CAL., June 1.—Judge Ogden to-day made an order of final distribution of Fugene Murphy’s estats, valued at $300,000.

P. Hall, who appeared for the heirs, was al- lowed $750. MUST STAND TRIAL. Stockholders’ Liability Will Be Tested in the Piedmont Reorgani- zation Scheme. OAKLAND, CaL., June 2.—In the suit of James T. Boyd, William T. Welcher and A. D. Grimwooa against E. A, Heron, Pheebe A. Blair and the other stockholders of the Piedmont Cable Company Judge DIFFER ABOUT STANDING ON THEIR HEADS. Rev. James Small of the First Chris- tian Church, who says he will not stand on his head and try to spit In his vest- pocket to amuse anybody. He is at pres- ent conducting an ordinary revival in his Oakland church. | Rev. Edwards Davis of the Central Christian Church, who says that he is | willing to do anything, even to stand | on his head, if he can thereby build up | the kingdom of God. He is now con- | ducting a rational revival in Oakland. conducting special revivals, and the feel- ing between them is not of that perfectly harmonious nature that is expected to exist between pastors of the same faith doing the same work. Rev. James Small of the First Christian Church feels that he is the aggrieved party. He says that Rev. Edwards Davis of the Central Christian Church opened his *‘rational revival” for ten days only, with the understanding that at the end of thai time Rev. Mr. Small should have a clear right of way in the evangelical field. When the ten days expired Mr. Davis was having such success that his trustees prevailed on him to continue, and not construing his verbal agreement with Mr. Small as having been a final one he agreed. ; A few days ago the Placnrds announcing the “rational revival’ of Mr. Davis were covered or duplicated by the placards of a “special revival’ by Mr. Small. Whether Rev. James Small meant any- thinz or not is not known, but to-day he sent out a notice in his own handwriting that reads as follows: The revival at the First Christian Church r. all, the pastor, is holding forth to good au- ticnces, and the social element is coming to the front in the meeting. Nothing of a seusa- tional nature characterizes the services. The preacher says he will not stand on his head and try and spit into his vest pocket to amuse anybody. When Rey. Edwards Davis saw his vrother minister’s announcement he said: Rev. Mr. Small agreed that my meetings should begin first and continue two weeks, and, if the success warranted, theyshould con- tinue indefinitely. When the two weeks were up we sgein met, and it was decided that it would be advisable for the First Church to begir. its postponed meetings, as the audiences would be different and cause no conflict what- ever. There can never be discord with me, as it always takes two to dis My opinfon of my co-laborer, Rev. Mr. Small, is the highes, and I am confident of his success. As for the reference to vest pocket, I do not believe he ever sald such a thing, and even if he did he did not refer to me or anything I have done. Rev. Edwards Davis is known as the boy actor-preacher, and believes in any method that will carry conviction to the hearts of his audience. If he can teach a better lesson from the death ccene in “Richard III” than he can from a text from the Bible Shakespeare will supply the inspiration. A negro story will be illustrated by a delicate shuffiing of feet in the pulpit; and other things of a like character have helped to build up a large congregation. His church members re- gard the reference of Rev. James Small to not ‘‘standing on his head” to “‘amuse” anybody a3 a reflection on_ their pastor, and do not appreciate it. Judging by the size of their audiences there is a demand for both kinds of revivalism, as both churches are filled every night. SWAMP LAND FUNDS. Supervisors Requested to Assist in Bear- ing the Expense of Investigating the Treasurer’s Books. OAKLAND, Car., June 1.—The finance committee of the Board of Supervisors is to decide whether Alameda County shall take a hand in having the State Treasurer’s office investigated. A letter was received to-duy from Messrs. P. O. Jurgens and S. L. Hogue, acting as a committee from the Fresno County Board of Supervisors, asking that the board of this county assist in bearing the expense of experting the books of that office in relation to the swamp land funds. The letter says: Gentlemen; Having been appointed by the Borrd of Supervisors .of Fresno Couniy on April 22, 1896, as 2 commiltee to confer with the eounties of this State interested in swamp land matters, we take the liberty to address you with reférence thereto. A partial investi- gation of the books and records of the State so far as the same relates to this county shows an upparent discrepancy of about 41 per cent of the money paid by the treasurer of this county 10 the State. Our county would like to know what became of the money, and it was suggested to the Board of Supervisors that perhaps s number of the counties interested (and your county is one) would join together and thus make the expense of éach small. The State recordsshow that Fresno County paid to the State up to July 27, 1868, the sum of 1,369 17. After this date the State recelved no swamp land moneys. On June 5, 1869, according to the State rec- | ords, there was iu the State swamp land Tund Frick has overruled the demurrer of the defendants and now the case must go to trial as to the individaal liability upen ten bonds in the sum of $1000 each, held by plaintiffs, which with interest now amounts to $11,300 and upward, The amounts claimed to be due from the individual stockholders are as follows: E. A. Heron, $58361; Phebe H. Blair, $2845 11; Charles R. Bishop, $1908 40; J. R. Spring, $827 28; F. A. Huntington, $394 84; Mabel E Blair-Squire, $461 86; J. L. Brad- bury, $75207; J. H. T.

KILLED A BOY. Berkeley Local Adds Another Vietim to 1ts West Oakland Record, OAKLAND, CaL., June 2.—Larry Moore, the nine-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Moore of 883 Cedar street, while out playing with his seven-year-old brother at the foot of Goss atreet this morning, was struck and almost instantly killed by the Berkeley local as it was com- ing from the pier. The boys were watching the overland coming from the Sixteenth-street station, and did not hear the local, owing to the noise. The younger boy was off the track and escaped injury. This is the same point at which a woman was killed recently. There have been a number of deaths at this place. The com- pany keeps two flagmen stationed there, but they could not warn the boy in time to save him, SILVER CUP PRESENTED. Luther Fillmore Remembered With a Token of Esteem by His Employes. OAKLAND, CaL., June 2.—Lutber Fill- more, the retiring superintendent of the Santa Cruz division of the South Pacific Coast Railroad, has been presented with a beautifully engraved silver cup by the sixty employes under his charge. On one side ie an engraving of the steamer New - ark while on the other is a view of the Santa Cruz Mountains and a train round- ing the curve. The inscription on it reads: Presented to Mr. Luther Fillmore on his re- tirement from the superintendency of the Santa Cruz division of the Southern Pacific Company by the employes as & token of their respect, esteem and beet wishes. June 1, 1896. MADE SHORT WORK. Jaller Lane Scales the Wall and Es- capes in Just Three Minutes. OAKLAND, CAv., June L—Chief Jailer Lane has proved to his associates and Sheriff Wlrite that were he a prisoner in the County Jail, he would escape in very short order. Some time ago a prisoner left without asking leave by scaling the wall where it joined the building, just under the jailer’s window, at noontime. While discussing the matter Jailer Lane declared he could do the same trick. Asa result of the banter he went out and made a_trial, Chief Deputy Sheriff Charles White held the watch while the others stood about to guy the tall jailer when he failed in his attempt. But they were con- siderably amazed to tee him’ disappear over the wall in less than three minutes. As a result of the experiment the Super- visors will be requested to make some chai:geu in the present arrangement of the walls.

FILLMORE ACTS AT ONCE Impudence to a Minister’s Daughter Is Followed by Discharge. A STATION AGENT ADMONISHED Effect of Complaints Made by Dele- gates to the San Jose Convention. OAKLAND OFrICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL, } 908 Broadway, June 2. There is a young man in this city who learned to his sorrow a few days ago that the Christian Endeavorers have become a power that brooks no insult to its mem- bers. It is also proved that they havea pull with the railroad that is even greater than that of Eli Denison. The young fellow in question was up to | within a couple of weeks ago a ‘‘peanut | butcher” on one of the trains running | from this city to San Jose, but since his | “experience’”’ with the Endeavorer hosts ! he has been hunting for a position. Itall came about by a display of his freshness to two younger members of the local En- | deavorers, who had been in attendance on the State convention in San Jose. The train was well loaded with the en- thusiastic young people, and all was going as merry as a marriage bell until the smart young man set his eyes on iwo of the prettiest ana most attractive juniors— misses about 15—one a child of an Oakland Presbyterian minister, who were seated to- gether. He attempted a flirtation, but failing to attract any responses he began to make himself a nuisance. At first he | contented himself with making it a point to offer them all of his wares, and then, growing bolder, he attempted to engage them in conversation. All of his efforts were in vain, however, and then he be- came insulting. The young misses were inexperienced and hardly knew what to do, but finally decided to appeal to the passengers about them for protection. A gentleman and his wife sat across the aisle and they asked him to drive the young man away. This Le did in a few words and few if any knew of the incident, but the passenger was so enraged that he did not forget it. He was one who stood close to Superin- tendent Fillmore and during the week told him of the occurrance and requested that the young fellow be discharged, so as to avoid any repetition of the offense in the future. Filimore readily consented and a dayor two ago handed the passenger a letter showing that the ‘‘peanut butcher’” had been dismissed. The young iadies had no idea the matter would go any further than the carand will be greatly surprised to learn that the boy who bothered them has been discharged for his smartness. In the same connection the station agent at San Jose has received some pertinent letters from the officials at Market and Montgomery streets regarding his conduct toward theEndeavorers on theMonday they left that city for their homes. Owing to his slow movements and careless ‘‘I-don’t- care-if-you-do- miss - the - train’” manner there were a number who either missed their train or had to pay full fare home when they were entitled to a one-third rate. Complaints were made and he was | even charged with partinlity in waiting on | the crowd. Several sharp letters were sent him, one being from Mr. Fillmore himself. The Endeavorers now feel assured that when they again take a trip on the South- ern Pacific they will be accorded the fair- est of treatment by the officials even down to the peanut boys. THAT TROPHY IS WANTED, The San Francisco Club Has Its Eye on the Challenge Cup. The Alameda Bed in the “Little Jim ‘Ward” Will Be Declared Open Next Friday. ALAMEDA, CaL., June 2—The mem- bers of the Encinal Yacht Club were thrown into a state of excitement last night by the receipt of achallenge from the San Francisco Yacht Clab for possession of the cballenge cup at present under the care of the Alameda yachtsmen. Last year the Encinals were the winners, and Commodore Leonard’s energy in building the El Sueno, and then showing such a clean pair of heels to the Queen, was much talked of in yachting circles as redounding to the credit of Alameda. The challenger this time is Captain Sutherland, with his sloop Catherine. She measures only 25 feet over sll, thus disqualifying the El Sueno from compet- ing, as her length is 51 feet. The Encinals are not strong in the 25-foot class, their best boats being the Florence and the Fawn, yet they say positively that the challengers will know they have been in a race when it is all over. What surprises them is that the challenge is made out of | the El Sueno’s class, seeing that it is a well-known fact that Captain Billings of the Corinthians is building a yacht fash- ioned on the El Sueno's lines, and which when completed is to try conclusions with the local crackajack. 2 Several yachtsmen of the other cubs have yachts that are said to be able todi s- tance the Catherine in any kind of weather, such as the Truant, owned .by Captain’' Pew of the Cornthians. The Encinals say he would not, as a true sport- man, try for the cup because bis boat was not in the same class as the champion. So far no date nor,particulars for the contest have been decided on.

AFTER THE TOOL THIEVES. Carpenters Displeased With | Police Judge Campbell. | For years past the carpenters and other workmen of this City have been frequently | made the victims of sneak-thieves who | stole their tools, which were sold for very | small sums in the second-hand stores. | The carpenters have at last taken hold of | this matter and will do all in their power to put a stop fo this line of thieving. Union 483 last evening, in passing a reso- lution on this matter, gave Police Judge | Campbell a slap for the stand he took in | the case of a self-confessed thief recently. The resolution reads as follows: WHEREAS, It has for some years been the mis- fortune of carpenters working cn buildings in this City to have their tools stolen, thereby suffering loss of money and work, preventing them from earning a living for themselves and families, we, the carpenters of Union 48; hereby determined to prosecute all who are caught stealing tools to the fullestextent. | On May 22 last, & sneak-thief named Mohler, who had at last been caught Stealing tools, was arraigned before Judge Campbell, and on | the plea of his mother that the tools had been stolen to get money for her.as she neeaed food, the kind-hearted Judge let this conyicted tool ' thief go for thirty days, andif he ap- peared then, and no “other charges were brought against him, his case would be dis. missed. What about the carpenter, his wife and chil- dren who had to go hungry, not because some one had stolen his sppre cash, but hed robbed him of his tools and his ability to earr. bread Union smart Broadway, New York, druggist has N this sign hanging outside his store; it marks the new era of drug selling, | Is it any wonder that he | has to enlarge his quar- ters, that his clerks are busy, and that his store is one of the most popular along the leading thor- oughfare? ou can afford to trade with a druggist that has such a motto as that. | Angeles, Redondo (Los | Pacific Mall S. for his babies? Why did not Judge Campbell in this case do his duty to himself and the community and sentence this convicted tool- thief and his mother, the receiver, to the full- est extent the Jaw allows and assist to prevent workingmen from being robbed of their ability toearn a n\-.u%’l The sooner the workingmen elect Judges who will be honest to them and punish those who steal tools from workingmen the same as though they had stolen from mil- lionaire corporations, the better. We ask all workingmen to closely watch the case when the thirty days expire and act ac- cordingly next November. A. E. CARLISLE, President. ‘W. T.
