It Was a pentecostal meeting, held while the san was sinking into the sea and his rays of glory were sianting t'rough the win- aows of the church. A truly wonderful spiritual awakening descended upon the worshipers. There wers testimonies for the Lord as fast as the people could rise. | Songs, sung with great animation and fervor, interspersed the testimonies. An aged man, white-haired and trem- bling, arose and said simply: “There’s sunsaine in my soul.” At once the chor- ister sprang forward, the organ caught the everybody’s heart and all, with n, sing the re Ob, there’s sunshine hine, while the shine in my All gathered in front of the pulpit and shook hands, rejoiced and knelt tocether in the good ol ned Methodist way. All sang—some one e, some another. Some prayed. W:ite heads and wrinkled fsces, tears wetting their cheeks, with closed eyes were raised heavenward, and with a tenderness and emphasis that thrilled, all sang: The cleansing stream T see, T see; I piunge, and, oh, it cleanseth me— Oh, praise the Lord, it cieanseth me; ftcleanseth me, yes, cleanseth me. “Glory!” I see the new creation rise,’ sbouted one. “‘Everybody say hallelujah.” *‘Hallelujah!”" shouted all, till the rafters rang—and the meeting was over. The 8:30 o’clock praise service, preced- ing to-day’s session of the conference, was led by Rev. R. W. Gober. Bishop Foss presided as ususl.

He then delivered an elo- uent and learned discourse on “‘The Model Mirister,” which was heard with pleasure and profit byall. He adimon- ished the young ministers to read and keep abreast of the times, but not to loose sight of the good oid creed of the church. “The modcl minister must be saturated with the holy word, ’ he said. He asked the usual discipline questions and the young ministers retired. The Reve. H. W. Baker of the Pennsyl- vania, F. A.

Who should be the authority, Peter Yorke or the great trans- lators who have given us the sacred word ?”” he asked. The paper of John F. Holmes of Oak- land, who was absent, on “The Individ- ual Cup’’ was read by S. E. Holden, presi- dent of the Bank of Napa. Mr. Watson, a member of the Eigh'b-avenue Church, Osakland, excoriated the idea of the trans- mission of disease by the communion-cup, and advised sticking by the old cup that all had drank out of for centuries. “For my part, I'd like to see the whole individu: communion service thrown 1nto San Francisco Bay,” he declared.

Both men were stricken dumb, t: e former on September 6 and the | latter on the day following. Rudo!ph was perfectly able to converse until noon of the 6th. At that time he end eayored to give some directions to subordinate relative to the hire of his boats. His mouth framed the“words but uttered no sonud. S.nce then he has re- covered his lost power of speech slowly, and now can only partially make himself understood by word of mouth. He is being benefited by treatment for paralysis of the throat. Mr. Lewis’ case is almost a paraliel to Rudolph’s. He was rendered speechless on the 7th, just as suddenly and without the slightest premononition. Thomas E. Mitchell, a personal friend, accompanied him to San Rafael, where he was treated for paralysis of the throat. Lewis has now almost entirely regained his power of speech. e iy Jurors Sworn at Visalia.

All sec- e TT—— in the garb of a rancher went into a pawn* shop adjoining the poker rooms, presuma bly to purchase a revolver. In attempt” ing to load the weapon a cartridge was ex- ploded, the buliet passing through the rtition and entering the neck of Feliz. hile the occurrence wzs possibly an sc- cident, an attempt will be made to estab- lish the identity of the man who sought to purchase the refolver. —— STUCKTON'S SUCCESSFUL FETE. Ihe Admission Day Fund in Excess of Al Bills Contracted. STOCKTON, CAL., Sept. L1.—The gen- eral committee that had charge of the Admission day celebration met to-nignt and the reports of the various sub-com- mittees were listened to. SBome of the committeemen reported deficiencies in the funds allotted to them, but others had money left and there will be several hundreds of dollars on hand after every bill is paid. It was Gecided to give a vote of thanks at the next meeting to be heid on Wednes- day evening to all who haa lent the local Natives assistance in making the cele- bration a success. Among those who were mentioned and the principal one was the Valley road, as several of the local committee expressed their appreciation of the action of the road in having its en- ¥mes stand on the tracks at the water ront during the regetta. Every time a Stockton crew started or a Stockton crew won in any of the events tue engines of the Valley road let their whistles loose and the noise was then taken up by all the tugs and steamers on the water. The new passeneer cars of the people’s road were also stationed on the tracks atthe water front and made a splendid showing. —_— TIBURON'S NtXT CLAMBAKE, Preparations Under Way for Amother Feast on Mollusks. TIBURON, CaL.. Sept. 1L—Not con- tent with the pronounced success of her last great clambake, Tiburon intends to give another on September 20. This time the clams will be prepared aunder a full moon.

Now that the outlook is good none ques- tion the expediency of so iarge an output. The business men, satisfied with the pros- pects of a good trade, are cheerlully making up the $3000 which they sub- scribed. The handsome pavilion erected at a cost of $6000 was formally dedicated to- night. Never since Queen Sequoia of last year terminated her reign has such inter- est been taken in a public event. For weeks people of Eureka and neighboring wowns have been in a whirl of anticipa- tion. The pavilion, although the most spacious dancehall in town, was found in- sufficient to properly accommodate the throng desiring aimission. The decorations were entirely in the hands of the women’s department of the exposition. Sequoia boughs were ar- ranged to make of the hall a perfect bower. The balconies of the pavilion wers draped with fair colors of cardinal, cream and orange. Flags and ships’ colors were draped pendent from the ceiling. Mausic lovers are looking forward with leasure to the Cassasa daily concerts. 'he management has secured the services of the famous First Regiment band, which wiil leave on a special steamer for Hum- boldt asscon as its engagement at the Sacramento State Fairis concluded on the 19th of the month. The bicycle races to be held on the third day of the fair promise to be excep- tionally good. Prizes amounting to $300, mostly cash, have been offered.

On Friday, September 11, a gnnd dedicatory ball will be given, after which the pavilion wili be turned over to the display. It1s not known yet who wil{open the fair.

The Orphanage Fund Inmcreased by the Young Men's Institute. SANTA CRUZ, CAL., Sept. 11.—The Ar- mory to-night was the scene of one of the most fashionable gatherings this season. It was the concert and charity ball under | the auspices of Council No. 12, Young Men’s Institate. The charity itself is unigue, inasmuch as it benefits the or- phass of ail denominations.

Mayor Clark and His Fellow-Towns- men Officiate at a Woodland Barbecue. SANTA CRUZ, CaL, Sept. 1L—The officers of the First Infantry were right royally entertained by the city of Santa Cruz st Isabel Grove to-day. It was a complete change from the order of things which bas prevailed for nearly three weeks. Instead of the right hand of wel- come being extended to local citizens by Colonel Miles and his staff, it was Mayor Clark, Lieutenant-Governor Jeter and their fellow-townsmen who stood amid the shady glens and groves of Isabel Park and dispensed the choicest viands for the inner man. The form of hospitality to- day was a barbecue by name, but a feast in particai The bulishead was there, garnished with fried chicken, potted game, pite de fole gras and drinkables, soft and erwise. Amid tbe natural oaks, with sparkling streams oozing gurgling from beds of nestling brakes and ferns, Mayor Clark arose at noon and spake the welcome of Santa Cruz to her heroic guests, Colonel Miies replied that it gave him the greatest pleasure to scknowledge that this was one of the most successful camps ever held here. The natural advaniages of the nnoqndin_f conntry had favored excellent tactics. The drills and exercises bad been successful in every detail, and passing irom the martial to the social he thanked thre citizens of Santa Cruz for their many kindnesses and for the present show of gemerous hospitality. e said officers and men, rank and file, would take away wita them most happy recol- lections of this encampment. During the feast tne First Infantry band discoursed the latest musical gems; the photographer caught the gracefal pose of martial figures, and many availed them- seives of the cool walks surrounding the uturtr dining-table and told tales nf ‘war and chivalry. 3 BT Failure at Santa Barbara, SANTA BARSB.

Torsino Wins the Misses Stake, and Tea Set the Sunny Slope. SUNRISE II BEATS ARTICUS. Plungers Loss H-avily on the Mile and a S xteentb—Olive Loses to Grady. SACRAMENTO, Car, Sept. 11.—Six dashing young misses, mounted on pranc- ing steeds, performed some daring feats of equestrianism at the racetrack this fore- noon. It was the opening day of the tournament. The pretty horsewomen who took part were Miss L. E. Ward of Oak- land and the Misses Genevieve Henry, Bessie Quareles, Augustine du Milien, Grace Farnsworth and Bertha Gardner of Sacramento. Miss Ward of Qakland proved herself an equestrienne above the average, and, cer- tainly, littie less could be said of the other five contestants, who performed some very pretty maneuvers with their respective mounts. Little Bertha Gardaoer, a dimina- tive miss, mounted on a proud-stepping gray pony, which knew no end of tricks, could well give pointers to many profes- sional nders. But one contestant appeared in the sec- ond division of reinswomer, Miss May Heath of Oak Grove, who handled a four- in-hand attached to an English draz su- perbly enough to catch the heart of a real Dauke or Lord from across the pond. The tourney will be continued on Fri- day of next week, when the prizes will be awarded. In the afternoon a crowded grand stand and packed betting ring greeted the gal- lopers. The card looked just a trifls freckled from lack of entries, but still some rare contests were enjoyed. The day was an ideal one for racing; no un- pleasant festure marred the sport and as three out of five favorites stepped across the plate in front the sports burned red fire to-night and the limit of the vari- ous faro games has been temporarily raised. Conspicuous in the front rank again to-day were the colors of Bookmaker George Rose, whose select’string is meet- ing with phenomenal success at the meet- ing., After Miss Maggie M bad been beaten a head in a drive by Howard §, in the opening event, Torsino, carrying his oolors, galioped away with the Misses stake, worth $365, and thirty minutes Iater Tes Rose put the Sunny Siope stake, valued at $494, to the lucky penciler’s ac- count. The big piunge of the day was made on Arti a startes in the last race, whose odds were pounded from 6 to 1 off the boards. Sunrise II, owned by a legal turf a.viser named Morris, was aiso in to ‘‘put a little tea in the caddy,” and, car- rying the last shekel possessed by every tout on the track, easily beat Articus. Te was entered by Larglars last fihl- Sixty-five dollars in | To-morrow cash and- several watchesand pipes were | the races, the Several lobsters also ran in the raca. In the opening five and a haif furlong handicap lor two-year-oids, Miss Maggie M, dropped in with 97 pounds, looked a bit rosy, and ber friends piayed her down from foursto2to 1. In’‘a mild sort of a drive she was beaten out a neck by the 4 m:hm{;o. Bo.'d-rd s“.‘lin 1:0:. hEhlxe- lujah, w! open: in the bettin, with Howara S, ree.dfi to fours. ¥ The Spreckels entry, Olive, was a warm favorite for the mile handicap, with but four starters. The handsome mare is evi- dently not at her best, for she could do no better than srnish in third place. The light-weighted Grady, 8 4 to 1 chance, ridden by little Cole, and Instigator, with Narvaez up, fought it out through the stretch, the forming winning in a hard drive by a nose in 1:423{. The Misses stake over six furlongs was a very tame affair. The handicapper put 117 pounds on Torsino, but she badly out- classed her field and won as she pleased in romping fashion, siarting a 1 to 2 favorite. Lucille, carrying the colors of A. B. Spreckels, was a creditable second, heavily mnponaz for the place in the betting. Patsy Freeman slighted from the back of Torsino, and the clever lightweight ap- peared » few minutes later astride of Tea Rose, the 3 to 5 favorite for the Sunny Slope stake at five furiongs for two-year- oid filli Dura was second choice in the betting at 7 to 5, but was never able to ex- tend the first cholce, which won under double wraps in 1:02 Grandezia, February and Catherine the Great were the only other starters, the lstter finishing in the show. Eleven selling-platers faced Havey in the mileand a sixieenth selling affair, with Articus the hottest sortof a tip. After half the distance bad been covered, Sun- rise II, backed from sixes down to 31, passed Two Cheers and headed the bunch out an easy winner in 1:493{.
