A Gold Watch and Diamonds Valued at $1500 Mysteri- ously Disappear. ROBBED ON AN OAKLAND FERRY An Unknown Alameda Lady Loses Her Handbag Containing Eleven Hundred Dollars. Mrs. Richard Williams, wife of the ex- Customs Inspector, is mourning the loss of sundry valuable diamonds, a handsome gold watch and a small amount of gold coin. The total loss will probably reach $1500. The robvery occurred between 7 and 10 o'clock on the night of the 'big bicycle demonstration. The robbery was reported to the police the next day. On the night of the parade Mrs, Wil- liams left her home, 1028 Greenwich street, to witness tbe demonstration, first carefully storing her diamonas and gold watch in a place she Dbelieved to be a safe one. When Mrs. Williams returned home about 10:30 there was nothing to indicate the presence of a.stranger. Everything was in its customary place, so far as a casual glance disclosed. She gave no thought to the diamonds and the watch and the money until the next morning, when she concluded to pay s few visits. She went to where she had hidden her valuabies, and, without so much as look- ing, reached in her hand for the jewel- case. It was there all right enough, but when she opened it not a single sparkler met her astonished gaze. Everything was gone, even to a souvenir coin. The robbery was immediately reported to the police, but no clew of the guilty party has been obtained beyond a suspi- cion.confided to the detective by Mrs. Wil- liams. The person she suspects is being ciosely watched, but has so far managed to conduct himself in such a way as to avoid actual arrest. [ncidentally it may be related that the police on both sides of the bay, as well as the Southern Pacific detectives, are trying to locate a person who on Monday last walked away with $1100 belonging to a lady passenger on the ferry-boat Oakland. The authorities refused to divulge the name of the lady, but admit the robbery. The facts in the case, however, are as foliows: On Monday last a lady living in Alameda came to this City to dispose of a piece of property. The transfer was quickly made and at 3 o’clock the lady boarded the Oakland, intending to go directly home. Ina small handbag were the proceeds of the sale—$1100. When about half-way over the lady observed a friend at the other end o! the boat and went to her. When near the Oakland slip she suddenly remembered her handbag and made a hurried visit .to the spot where she had left it. It was gone. The robbery was at once reported to the captain and a hurried search made for the thief. Every passenger leaving the boat was carefully watched, but no one with a bag of the kind lost was observed. The thief had either thrown it overboard or hid it, intending to return for the valuable grip when the excitement passed away. The entire affair is shrouded in the deep- est mystery, except the fact that the detectives have failed to recover the coin and the further fact that the lady has made a formal demand on the Southern Pacific to make good her loss. ARCHDEACON, FROil YUKON. Talks of Alaska Missionary Work and Progress Made. Archdeacon Canham of the Church of England arrived at the Occidental Satur- day from Auvik, Alaska. He is on his way to Winnipeg to attend a meeting of the general synod of the church. Fifteen years agzo he was sent by the Episcopal Church of England Missionary Society to labor among the Indians of the far Northwest. Up to 1888 he spent his time in the country about Fort McPherson, on the Peel River. Subsequently he has been in the Yukon country. He says that the Engiish Episcopal Church, the Epis- copal Church of America, the Greek Church and the Catholic Church all have NEW TO-DATY.

The American Episcopal Church has two missionaries cn the lower Yukon and is very soon to estab- lish two on the upper Yukon. The Church of England missions are under the charge of Bishop Bompos. Bishop Rowe of the American Church, sent up there last spring after the St. Paul convention, 1s 1nspecting the field now. He has been well received. The only woman missionary in the whole region 1s Miss Sabine of Canada, who is now at An- vik. There were two others, but they re- signed, and yesterday returned with the archdeacon ~and his wife. One, a Miss McDonald, is on her way to Scotland. She was sent out by the Church of England. The other, Dr. Mary V. Glenton, is going to her old home in New York. The archdeacon says that the outlook in the missionary field is good. The Indians are peaceful and the children apt to learn. But with the coming of white men the liquor habit bhas come, and against its hold on the Indians the missionaries are contending. NEARLY ASPHYXIATED. Edward Williams, a Laborer, Found Unconscious in a Lodging-House on Fourth Street. Edward Williams, a laborer, about 25 years of age, engaged a room Saturday evening in the lodging-house 222}4 rourth street. Yesterday morning about 6 o’clock a boy who occupied an adjoining room heard groans from Williams’ room. He went into the room and found it full of gas. Williams was in bed, unconscious. The boy ran into the street and notified the policeman on the beat, who sum- moned the ambulance from the Receiving Hospital. The policeman found the gas turned on full. One thing that puzzled him was that no trace could be found of Williams’ clothing, and it flashed into his mind that Williams might have been the victim of a burglar. When Dr. Helms arrived with the ambulance search was made for the clothing, and it was discov- ered stuffed up the chimney, evidently with the intention of preventing the gas from escaping that way. The key of the gas-jet was more than usually tight, so that it was impossible to have turned iton by accident. ‘Williams was taken to the hospital, and Drs. Fitzgibbon and Helms by the use of oxygen and other remedies soon restored him to consciousness, and he was able to leave the hospital a few hours later. He said be had been drinking all night with some friends, and he had no recollection of going to his room, and could not ac- count for his clothes being stuffed up the chimney or the gas being turned on. He denied that he wanted to commit suicide. SUICIDE UNJUSTIFIABLE Dr. Jerome A. Anderson’s Lec- ture at Golden Gate Hall. It Is a Violation of Nature, and Insanity Is the Only Possible Excuse. The Theosophists had a packed house at the last regular meeting at Golden Gate |1 Hall, when Dr. Jerome A. Anderson, president of the S8an Francisco Branch of | the Theosophical Society in America, lectured on *‘Suicide.” Dr. Anderson took the negative side of the question recently discussed at such great length in THE Susxpay Cavp, “Is Suicide Justifiable Under Any Condi- tions?”’ Dr. Anderson said: “The prevalence of suicide among West- ern people is due entirely to wrong con- ceptions of life. These in their turn are the result of materialistic teachings of both religion and philosophy. The pure materialist flouts the idea that, although in the midst of eternity, he will ever have other than a fleeting glimpse of sentient life. For him the tragedy of existence consists of one act and then the curtain is rung down forever. **So long as religion"and materialistic philosophy unite in declaring that one life enas the relations of the soul with matter for all eternity, so long will they be unable to recognize the wonderful, the awful continuity of life, and that it can- not be laid aside at the whim or will of ignorant man. ‘“This 1s the avenue by which we must approach the study of suicide, as well as all other problems of human existence— that man is one with nature. Itisat once evident that he is undergoing the evolution apparent in ali nature, only upon a relatively higher plane of baing. is soul may be said to represent a unit of consciousness, just as stable, as incapable of being destroyed as the corresponding unit of matter, the atom. It is journey- ing through its evolutionary cycle of necessity, adding accretions of wisdom as the result of its conscious experience, in a manner analogous to that by which the atom grows by svnthesizing other matter. “Looking at life from this larger view- pont, we must believe that man is a por- tion of his planet, and that he will remain and evolve upon it until it can no longer afford him new, helpful, conscious experi- ences. And this is the theory to whicha very large majority of the people of the earth subscribe under the name of reincar- nation. Reincarnation is the very process of human eyolution. “Nature has intended man to rest be- tween each conscious struggle with this lower matter, and has provided the oppor- tunity in her law of cycles, which governs all existence, whether of man or sun. “Woe to all men who violate any of her immutable laws; but woe of woes to him who lifts his frenzied hand to cut short the time she has appointed him for learn- ing his lessons of wisdom through experi- ence. For nature disowns him; he has no place in her eternal harmonies—no place— heis neither dead nor alive. Torn yio- lently out of his body by the most selfish of acts, he must remain in a helpless nightmarelike condition until the period of that which would haye been his normal life has expired, when he can once more enter the common stream of evolution, but under the most unhappy conditions. The suicide is a rebel against the Infinite; one who is trying to evade the conse- quences of his own acts. “He cannot succeed. Torn out of the body with the tuought of suicide domina- ting his whole being, it will remain the dominating thought during years of un- told agony. He wili repeat in his imagin- ation all the grewsome details of bis sui- cide, year after year, trying in vain . to escape from himself. No power in heaven nor upon earth can prevent this, for he has appealed to the infinite iaw of cause and effect and he must abide its action. ““Therefore, there 1s no circumstance or set of circumstances which can justify suicide. Even from a purely selfish point of view he who commits the act but _adds materially to his dreadful sufferings. Noth- ing but the utter irresponsibility of com- plete insanity will bar him from the con- sequences.” —_————— Boots and Shoes in Australia. Robert Louden, a large boot and shoe mer chant of Sydney, New South Wales, came here Saturday to study the latest machinery used in his line of business. He is at the Occi- dental. Mr. Louden says that under Prime Minister Sir George Dibbs New South Wales had a protective tariff of 11 cents ad valorem on boots and shoes, and as & result the local industry grew right up. But for the last two vears, under the regime of Prime Minister Reid, free trade has prevailed and the boot and shoe merchants are suffering from goods imported irom the United States, Engiand and Victoria. American - made boots and shoes, he declares, are seiling in New South Wales cheaper to-day than the same goods are sold in this country. Owing to the tie-up at Newcastle, Mr. Louden asserts, there are ninety ships idly waiting to load with coal Cargoes. PROPHET SMITh HAS DISAPPEARED. His Queer Home Lies De- serted on the Alameda Flats. A SUDDEN DEPARTURE, The Strange Beat With a His- tory That Is No Longer Tenanted. HIS FRIENDS ARE ANXIOUS, Hermit Believed by Some to Have Fallen Overboard and Drowned. The Richard Smith, the “Prophet of the Spirits,” has disappeared and his queer home, an old battered sloop, lies silent and deserted in her oozy bed in the marsh near Alameda. For a year past Smith has been the queerest of the many queer char- acters that make their homes on or near the bay. He has flitted about from one cove or creek to another, anchoring for a time and then moving on, as he claims, in response to an order from a divine power. Wher- ever he has remained stationary for even a short period he has preached the pecu- liar doctrine of the Poulson group of spiritualists, mixed with theosophy—for Smith believes in the transmigration of souls—and in more than one instance, particularly since he took up his abode near Alameda, he has collected quite a following of believers about him, to whom he preached every Sunday while standing in the rigging of his queer craft. It is these friends, and particulariy a number of wowen who have become deeply interested in his teachings, that are making anxious inquiries for him. From the time be arrived in the creek in June last up to a week ago Smith, who while apparently still robust, is well ad- vanced in years, had not left his boat for more than a few hours at a time. At almost any hour of the day he could be seen pottering about the Southern Pa- cific—for such 1s the name of the prophet’s strange vessel—tinkering here and patch- ing there, in preparation, as he said, for a call from above to move on, which he af- fected to believe would come at any time. On Sunday, the 2d inst., he preached from the side of the Southern Pacific as usual, but bas not been seen since. On the Monday following a friend who called to consuit him regarding some matter found the sloop’s cabin open, as though Smith was somewere aboat, but he failed to find the prophet. He waited some time, but the man he was looking for did not appear and he left. Next day he called again with the same result and was some- what alarmed to fina things just as he left them. A half-cooked meal was on the i h - = / \‘Qum ~ denly finds himself without a tool. T i s : Qo “fl‘é\'—‘. Wu @“\ i The audacious attempt of several local Chinese firms to corrupt Federal offi- cers, as told in “The Call” of yesterday, created no end of comment in Chinatown and among Government employes. It is generally conceded to be the merviest scheme ever undertaken by the almond-eyed citizens. The members composing the firm of Mow Tuck & Co. have hitherto borne an excellent reputation. Chin Wah Maw, who endeavored to engineer the trick, claims to be a cousin of the leading member of the firm of Mow Tuck & Co. The man, however, who really made the arrangements or, rather, thought he had, for the illegal landing of 250 Celestials, is proprietor of a large fancy store on Sac- ramento street near Dupont. His name is known to the proper officials but it is not thought best to make it public at present. The fellow speaks English fluently and has an accurate knowledge of the methods employed in the illegal landing of his countrymen. This fact gives rise to the suspicion that he has had a hand in similar crimes in the past, but through the recent shake-up of the inspectors sud- stove of the dingy cabin and everything was in a condition indicating that the occupant had stepped out with the inten- tion of returning in a moment. He reported the matter to Ralph Ham- lin, the keeper of the Bay Farm island bridge, who is also a police officer, and since then a sharp lookout has been kept on the Southern Pacific for the return of the prophet. Some of his disciples in- quire every day whether he has returned, but the answer is always in the negative and the belief is spreading among his followers that something has happened to him. They think that he has been seized With some sort of fit and has fallen over- board and drowned, while those who be- lieve in his theosophical teachings say that he has passed on to another exist- ence and that they will hear from him shortly. Those who believe that he has met with some accident point to the fact that the vessel’s cabin was found open and every- thing as though the prophet Intended to return in a moment, while it was Smith’s invariable custom to lock up his home with a sturdy padlock that would defy any but expert burglars whenever he left even for an hour to cross the bridge for provisions. A number of Smith’s followers visited the Southern Pacific yesterday in hopes of finding their teacher, but were disap- pointed, as he came not, The dust is set- tling on the crockery and cooking utensils that Smith was using just before he left the cabin, and the canvas that covers the hatchway is torn where curiosity-seekers have thrust it aside in ordertosee into the dark apartment. Prophet Smith was apparently not cleanly in bis habits, and his home will be far less inviting unless he returns soon to claim his own. Ralph Hamlin has taken charge of the boat, and will hold her until Smith returns or his fate is ascertained. AN ILLUSTRATED SERMON. The Third of a Series Delivered Last Evening. Last evening Rev. Frank K. Baker, pas- tor of the Epworth M, E. Church, gave to a large audience the third of a series of illustrated sermons. Each sermon is il- lustrated by tkree large oil paintings of Scriptural scenes bearing on the sermon. These paintings are designed and ar- ranged for pulpit use, and are beautiful and impressive pictures of important truths. The sermon last evening was based on John iii:2—“The same came to Jesus by night.” he first painting represented Nico- demus seeking Christ under cover of night. He was held up as a type of the timid seeker after trutb. It was not only night without, but night within, Nico- demus’ heart. He was earnestly desirous of entering the kingdom of God, and was pdqt rejected because oi his natural tim- idity. Tga second painting represented Christ and Nicodemus in earnest conversation. The latter, “‘a ruler of the Jews,” inquir- ing of Christ, a teacher come from God, concerning the greatest subject that can engage the attention of man—the redemp- tion of man. The third painting represented the ef- fects of this inquiry meeting—Nicodemus defending Christ before the Sanhedrim, and bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes and helping with the burial of his Lord and Master. The sermon was full of helpful sug- gestions and practical application of the truth. The subject next Sunday evening will be on ‘“The Hearty Seeker,” and the paintings will be the best of all the series. ————— Milton, W. Va., has 2 military company composed entirely of girls. They are drilling under the tutorship of a captain of the State militia, and propose to appear in public when they become proficient. During the year 1895 there was landed at this port 1417 Chinese, 98 of these being women. For the (irst five months of the current year the statement is made unofficially that nearly 700 Chinese entered the United States through this port. Since May, however, the business has fallen off fully 25 per cent. This may mean a great deal or nothing, but in any event it is regarded as peculiar when the numerous changes among the inspectors is remembered, CUT RATES T0 ORIENTAL PORTS Bold Invasion of the Terri- tory of the Pacific Mail. JAPANESE COMPETITION The Nippon Yusen Kaisha Has Opezed an Office in San Francisco. ITS LOW SCHEDULE OF FARES. Will Soon Be in Position to Bid for Freight Against Huntington’s Line. “Nippon Yusen Kaisha (Japan Mail Steamship Company. Regular steamers to all Asiatic points.” This is the announcement that appears on a Montgomery-street show window in handsome letters of gold and black. It is the first announcement of the evident pur- pose of the new trans-Pacific steamships to make an aggressive fight against the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and the Occidental and Oriental Steamship Com- pany for Oriental business. * The local agent of the Japan Mail Steam- ship Company will be Mr. Price, the local general agent of the Great Northern Rail- way, with which the Japanese company has just made a traffic arrangement, with Seattle as the United States terminus of the steamsiiip line. This makes it possi- ble for a through bill of iading to be 1ssued from Yokohama, Japan, to Buffalo, N. Y., practically over one line, extending one- third the distance around the earth. R. C. Stevens, the general Western pas- senger agent of the Great Northern, ar- rived here Friday night from Seattle, and was busy all day Saturday arranging de- tails for the handling of passenger busi- ness to the Orient and familiarizing him- self with the situation, as the trans-Pacific business is entirely new to him. “The other northern lines running between the United States and the Asiatic ports,” he said, “‘are getting business in this City, and Isee no reason why we should not be able to get a share of it, particularly as the Nippon Yusen Kaisha is in & much better position to secure and handle it. B “We shall compete for both passenger and freight business. W. B. Benham, the Western freight manager of the Great Northern,will be herein a few daysto look after the freight arrangements. “Our company now has a traffic arrange- ment with the Pacific Coast Steamship Company for the transportation of passen- gers and freight to Seattle, which is to move over our railroad line from that point, and so far as the passengers who desire to leave here for the Orient via Seattle, the same traffic arrangement will hold good. Passengers will be taken to Seattie on the vessels of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company and theras transferred to the Nippon Yusen Kaisha. *The first of the Japan mail steamers will leave Seattle on the 5th of September. It will be the Miike Maru, which is due to arrive at the American port on the 25th of the present month. She is a vessel of 4600 tons, will accommodate about twenty-five cabin or first-class Bss!engers and an un- nImited number of Chinese or Japanese in the steerage.” The schedule of passenger rates from Seattle to various Asiatic points has al- ready been issued. It showsa most marked reduction from these of the Pacitic Mail and the Occidental and Oriental Steamship companies from this port to the same poinis across the Pacific. The rates from this City to these Asiatic points, via Seattle and the Nippon Yusen Kaisha’s steamers, are made up of the local rate from the City to Seattle, and the rate from Seattle to the point of destination. Herewith is a table of rates comparing the first and third class rates respectively of the two rival companies from S?ln Fran- cisco to all the points to which the Nippon Yusen Kaisha is at present prepared to carry passengers: TinsT CLASS | THIRD CLASS PorT.

The comparison is made with first and second class rates only because the second-class business is but a very small pmgortinn of that done between the United States and the Orient. In order to arrive at the rates that pre- vail between Seattle and the Oriental points $27 must be deducted from the San Francisco rate for firsi-ciass fares and $16 for third-class fares. Mr. Stevens stated further that it was the intention to run one steamer a month for the present from Seattle. Three new steamers, he added, are being now built on the Clyde for this service. They will be between 4600 and 5000 tons burden, and be fitted up in the best modern style for passengers. It is expected that many “'globe-trotters” will give preference to the Seattle route to the Orient, as it will afford not only cheaper rates, but the op- portunity to see more territory than by the Pacific Mail route direct. FELL INTO THE BAY. Mrs. Kate Hasing Rescued in Time by A Boatman. Mrs. Kate Hasing, a woman about 30 years of age, living at 2950 Sacramento street, was lished out ofthe bay at Meiggs wharf yesterday morning by a boatman and sent to the Receiving Hospital, where she soon recovered, and was taken home by her husband. She said she left home to go to early mass and wandered down to the water- front. While standing on the wharf, she accidental.y fell into the bay. She could give no explanation of why she preferred going to the waterfront instead of going to mass. Her husband said she was troubled with nervous prostration, and sometimes she wae nearly out of her mind. She wasina highly nervous state when at the hospital. ——————— LoANS on diamonds.

Franciscan Fathers Officiate, and Father Wyman Preaches an Eloquent Sermomn. The feast of St. Dominic, the founder of the Dominican order, was commemorated in this City with solemn ceremonies in the Church of 8t. Dominic on Steiner and Bush streets. There was an unusually large congregation at the late morning mass; in fact, the large church was crowded with devout worshipers, who make it a rule to participate in the ceie- bration of festivals in that church. The altars were beautifully decorated with a profusion of flowers and evergreens and lighted by numerous candles. Solemn high mass was sung by Father Maximilian, O. B. F., of St. Boniface Church, who was assisted by Father Augustin, O. 8. F., and Father James, O. 8. fi It is customary among the Domini- cans and Franciscans to exchange on feast days, and that is why the Franciscan iathers officiated yesterday at the special services in honor of the saint. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Father Wyman, pastor of the Paulists’ church on California street. He chose for his text the words- of St. Paul to the Romans—tenth chapter, fifteenth verse: « How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace— of them that bring glad tidings of good things!” “The vocation of the preacher,” said he, ‘“‘according to the teaching and ex- amples of holy scripture, is the holiest to which any one can be called. Sanctity, not human eloguence, is the divine stand- ard by which fitness for it 1s determined. The vocation of the preacher has been sanctified by the public ministry of our divine Savior, who, previous to entering on his public life, spent thirty years in obscurity. Greatindeed is the dignity of reaching. It is the voice of God on Kdonnc Sinal, the voice of our Savior on Mount Zion, the divine sower scatiering seeds of truth. “Preaching is to-day considerea the most essential thing in all the popular re- ligions, ana even among those who have the least doctrine to teach and do not con- sider faith as essential to salvation. Their standard, however, is not the divine. Al- though possessing great eloquence they may be compared with those persons whom St. Paul mentions as having many virtues without charity. The apostles were trained for their work iu the school of our Lord, and after receiving the Holy Ghost carried on the ministry of preach- ing; and this divine vocation has been pergeluaud in the church. -‘One of the greatest lights is that of the great St. Dominie, a preacher of God’s word and the founder of an order of Brenchgrs- In his early clerical career, ominic did not think of becoming & preacher. He desired a hidden life of con- templation, and passed a number of years leading a conventual life as the canon of a cathedral church.” Father Wyman then reviewed the salient points in St. Domini¢’s career, how he de- termined to become a preacher when he met the Albyensis. With six companions he brought back these people to the Catholic fold, ana so thoroughly was the work done this heresy never revived. The reverend speaker said that the influence of the Dominican order on the church and the world has been very wide. Dominicans have ranked among the leading scholars of history, and theirtheologiuns especially are pre-eminent.
