Christian Endeavorers Hold Service om | the Oregon. { There is no need of asking the sailors of | the United States steamship Oregon ml take front seatsin the six-inch gun space when the Christian Endeavorers come on board to hold their prayer-meetings on | Satarasy evenings. Standing-room was | at a premium last night when the floating | | committee visited the warship. Thein- | terest shown by the sailors was really re- | markeble, and the number of conversions | show that the 4aithful work of the En- deavorers has not been in vain. | The meeting opened with a praise ser- vice led by George Duncan Jr., and after several stirriog hymns had been sung | Miss Bowen, from the Oakiand floating | committee, led in prayer. | Rev. W. Tubbs addressed the sailors, THE FREAK OF A YOUNG GIAL It Causes a Decided Sensa- tion in Golden Gate Park. CLOTHES IN THE BRUSH Park Police Make a Search for the Body of the Supposed Suicide.

Anderson Will Head the [ Municipal Ticket if the Com- bination Goes. | | COMMITTEES NOW AT WORK ; H To fuse or not to fuse is the guestion | that has been agitating the Populists and | one branch of the Democracy of the City | | for several days past, and while nothing | definite has yet been decided committees 1 from both parties have heid several meet- ] ings and propositions have been made on | both sides looking toward s combination | in relation to the municipal ticket. H Tke Populists were the first to mention | | fusion on the local ticket, and their de- | hom they bope to com- | Democrats with w bine—have been ciean cut from the start. | | The Populist leaders recognized that with- | | out a combination they cou'd not hope to win anything worth having, and at a| meeting held a week ago it was decided | that fusion with the Junta was the most | | feasible plan in sight,and a committee | | was appointed to set the ball in motion and feel the pulse of the Junta Democrats. | It was at once discovered that the Junta ! men bad just one thing in their minds that could not be altered, and that was the proposition that the Democratic party pre- | | sumably bsaving more votes atits com- | mand than the Populists should comman | more of the patronage, therefore the on ground on which fusion could be hoped for | was that the offices commanding the most I | patronaze should go the Junta. The Popu- | list leaders were willing to compromise on | anything like a fair basis and a meeting | was held to discuss the matter. | It was decided to offer the Democratic | managers support on every municipal offi- | cer except the Mayorand Board of Super- | visors if the Popalists could be assured of | every assistance in these piaces. | Since then nothing definite has been | done toward a [usion, because of the back- | wardness of the Junta leaders, but the ! | pot is boiling and a definite resuit is ex- | pected aimost every day i | the result of the conferences that are being | ihe]d the Populists have decided on one | thing, and tbat is their candidate for the | Mayor's chair. | In case the Junta Democrats accede to | | the proposition, Dr. Jerome A. Anderson | | will be the Popuiist candidate for Mayor. | | At the last election but two Populists | were elected to office, one being Adciph | Sutro as Mayor and the other Dr. Ander- | son as s member of the Board of Free | holders. While the Freeholiders were in | session Dr. Anderson made himseli felt in | | many ways, besides msking the fight of the aliopathic school of medicine. He | fathered many of the sections of the pro- posed new charter relating to maunicipal | ownership and made a racord quite in ac- | cordance with populistic principes. | Dr. Anderson is considered by the Popu | lists to be their most available candidate- | | and be wiil be pushed to the front in case | the fusion scheme is accepted by the | Junta. | In regard to the Svpervisors littie has | | | names presented will be those of repre- sentative citizens, and that the Populists having their candidates accepted. | tosee him before Le died. | to have theirlost credits restored. | been said so far, but it is believed that the | ° Sweetness and Light. Put a pill in the pulpit if you want practical preaching for tke physical man ; then put the pill in the pillory if it does not practise what it preaches. There's a whole gospel in Ayers Sugar Coated Pills; a “gospel of sweetness and light.” People used to value their physic, as they did their religion,—by its bitterness. The more bitter the dose the better the doctor. ‘We've got over that. We take “sugar in ours”— gospel or physic—now-a-days. It's possible to please and to purge at the same time.

The Cahifornia, a new political weekly with Populistic tendencies, and edited by | E. D. Crawford, will be an active factor in the new fight.

JThe bark Mercury sailed in yesteaday. Captain Colby knows every turn in the bay and in consequence he took his ves- se! rignt up the bay and anchored sbreast of Oskiand Creek without assistance. The Mercury is from Port Blakeley and has a load of lumber aboard. During the run | down nothing but light winds were en- countered and Captain Colby says that the | best breeze he ran into during the entire trip was the one he encountered off the Golden Gate. The steamer Yaquina is now out seven days from Seattle, but the Pacific Coast Steamship Company is not worrying in consequence. Cavotain Goodall asserts that tne Yaquina is only a 5knot vessel and should not be looked for before this morning. When she was turned intoa cargo boat the Yaquina’s speed was re- duced and now she cannot make as good time as a sailing ship. In consequence no one looks for the steamer beiore Monday. Nevertheless the shippers and owners are worried and news from toe vessel is anx- iously looked for. The battle-ship Oregon will be open to the guests of the crew next Thursday evening. The men are to give & minstrel performance in the forecastle and the offi- cers wili be the guests of the evening. The men 1n charge of the affair are Chairman Terry, Genersl Manager Hare and Stage Manager Cooney. Should the conmcert pass off successfully the chances are ihat it will be repeated in the City for the bene- fit of some charity.

Was Indorser on Two Promissory Notes of $10,000 Bach Executed by B:ck & Co. | B The famous action of Wells, Fargo & ['Co. banking-house against Emily G. Cohen of Alameds for $20,000 and interest was settled in Judge McKenna’s court yes- terday, when the jury, after fifteen min- utes’ deliberation, returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $24,161 10. The facts briefly related are as follows: {In 1892 W. F. Beck & Co., who shortly | afterward failed for a large amount, bor- | rowed from the bank $20,000, giving as | security two $10,000 notes, payable in thirty and forty days, and indorsed b | Mrs. Coten. Some months iater Beck | Co. went under, and when the notes fell due the bank demanded payment of Mrs, Coben. She set up the claim that the notes had been extended bevond the original time without her authority, and consequently | sbe could not be held liable. Suit was sc- cordingly begun to recover the amount ciaimed with interest. Hearing of the cause was postponed from time to time, but was finally reached three days Ny i the result of which has already been told. Itis understood that an appeal will be en. Mrs. Coben is the widow of the late A. A. Cohen, the famous railroad lawver, and is penerally reported to be very wealthy.

Changed H r Appare! and Left the 0:d Things. ‘Winona Jacobs, a girl 14 years of age, | was the means of causing s sensation Eamong the park( policemen yesterday | morning. | A bundle of clothing belonging to a young girt was found in the brush in the | park, and it was at once thought that aj | case of suicide would be developed. A cldse search was made of the brush, but no trace of a body couid be found. The clothing was then sent to police head- quarters, and Detective Antbony recog- nized it as belonging to Winona. The girl when 6 years old ran away from her home in Cincinnati and went to Chicago. There she was picked up by a woman, who for some years made money out of her by sending her out to beg. Her | married sisier, wbo then lived in Portland, | Or., learned of her whereabouts, and sent her money to take her to Portiana. Recently the family removed to this City and settied at 2173 Polk street. Winona got restless again and guietly left her sister’s home on August 27. She went to Mrs. T. Rolett, Lombard street, and told her a story of being an orphan. Mrs. Rolett took pity upon her and gave her a home. ive Anthony nad been notified by her sister of her dis- appearance. and he found her at Mrs. { Rolett’s. He took ber to the home of the | Young Women’s Christian Association, but after being there for about a week her sister thoughi she wouid give her another chance ana took her back. Friday morning Winona again ran away from ber sister and took $15 with her. She boughtsa new dress and jacket with the money, went out 0 the park and her clothing, leaving the old ciothes in the brush, where they were found. Then she wenf to the home of the Young Women's Christian Associa- tion and a+ked to be taken in again, promising to be a good girl. ‘When Anthony saw her there yesterday she said she liked the vlace and was going to remain as long as they would let her.
