THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1896. Interesting News Items From Alameda County. DOCTOR McLEAN'S SUCCESSOR DUE. The Rev. Charles Reynolds Brown a Stranger to His Flock. WAS LATELY MARRIED. Starting in Life as a Lawyer, He Felt Himself Called to the Ministry. ‘WORKED THROUGH SEMINARY After a Short Methodist Experience He Was Ordained a Congrega- tional Minister. OARLAND OrrIcE SAN Fraxcisco CALL, 908 Broadway, Sept. 17. } Although the Rev. Charles R. Brown is to become permanent pastor of the First which Rev. Mr. Brown received from a Malden congregation a year or more ago, the majority of his people were inclined to the opinion that he would serve in the local ministry for some time to come. “Mr. Brown is not one who jumps hastily at any straw which may blow his way. He readily appreciates the value of friendly counsel and how to put it to good personal use. It was, therefore, after due | donsideration and mature reflection that be decided to accept a call to the First Congregational Church of Oakland, Cal., | which is the largest church on the Pacific Blope, and ranks seventh in the large churches of the Congregational denomina- tion. Although in receipt of the call some little time, and being present in per- son at the regular Friday night meeting, he did not consider it best to make any announcement of the fact until Sunday, | and in consequence the surprise to the congregation was all the more complete. ““There was no attempt at a dramatic parting in the reading of the letter. It was a clear, straightforward statement of his position and his intentions, full of sin- cere and affectionate regard for his people and showing great sadness at hisneces- sary departure for other fields of labor. AI! was evident that it was a hard task to him to read the letter, because of the pleasant relations which have always existed be- tween him and the people of Winthrop Church, yet there was happiness underly- ing all sentiment in the fact that he was going to greater vineyards where an op- ortunity for greater work was before le. There was an absolute hush through- out the church during the reading of the letter, and it was apparent that all were eagerly listening to every word.” To Appeal Again. OAKLAND, Car., Sept. 17.—The sen- REV. CHARLES REYNOLDS Who Will Come to Qakland ding to Succeed Rev. J. K. McLean, D.D. | BROWN of Charlestown, Mass,, Immediately After His Wed- Congregational Church in two weeks, not one of the vast membership of his influ- ential pastorate has seen him either per- sonally or pictorially. All that is known of him is that he is an accomplished preacher who hasaccepted the unanimous call of the congregation and has resigned from his Charlestown church, near Boston. The successor to Dr. J. K. McLean will come to this city under very interesting circumstances. The trip will in reality be his honey- moon, 88 he will leave the day after his marriage. The wedding will take placein the Winthrop Church, of which he has been pastor for four years next Wednes- day. ‘the bride is Miss Alice Tuits, who has lived all her life in Charlestown ard who is beloved and respected by her vast acquaintance. She comes of the old Tufts family of New England that founded Tufts College, near -Boston. Her father is ireasurer of the Warren Bank, and Miss Tufts isa graduate of Radcliffe College. Thursday next Mr. aud Mrs. Brown will leave Boston and will reach Oakland 1 time for the pastor to occupy his new pulpit on the first Sunday in October. Rev. Charles Reynoids Brown 1s a native of West Virginia and is now thirty-four | years of age. He graduated from Wash- ington (Iowa) College and was awarded the aegree of A. B. at Iowa University in 1883, i During his course at the umversity he began the study of shorthand. In De- cember, 1883, he removed to Davenport, Iowa, where he entered the law offices of Davidson & Lane. In the summer of 1885 he abandoned law and entered an insurance company’s office in Des Moines, in order that he might save money to carry him through the seminary. In September, 1886, he en- tered the theological school of Boston University and on the day after he deliv- ered his graduating address he was ap- pointed pastor of Wesley Chapel M. E. Church in Cincinnati. There he remained until 1892, when he abandoned Methodism, accepted the call of Winthrop Church, Charlestown dis- trict, snd on September 20, 1892, was or- dained as & Congregational minister and installed as pastor. He has done great work while there, and has established an excellent reputation for himseif as pastor and preacher. The congregation steadily jncreased during his ministry, and bis helpful influgnce in the community was appreciated by all classes of citizens. During his four years at Charlestown Mr. Brown received 221 new members into his church, and the firm place he held in the hearts of his congregation is evider.ced by their genuine sorrow at his resignation. In a letter from a memberof Rev. C. R. Brown’s congregation at Winthrop Church, received to-day, oceurs the fol- ing: la“YAn fhunderbolt from a clear sky would have caused but little more surprise to the congregation of Winthrop Church last Sunday than the announcement by Rev. Charles R. Brown, the brilliant and es- teemea young pastor, that he intended to sever his connection with the church wherin he was ordained four years ago and with whose people he has labored earnestly and faithfully ever since. “After the refusal of the generous call tencing of C. R. Bennett was continued until Monday by Judge Ogden to-day, on | motion of Bennett’s attorneys. His coun- | | sel stated that they would appeal the case | | to the Bupreme Court upon exceptions to | rulings made during the trial. The recent | | decision was upon an appeal of the prose- | cution from the setting aside of a verdict. | DR, TRENOR DAOPS DEAD Heart Disease Takes Off One of Alameda’s Oldest ! Physicians. iMrs. G. A. Weise Loses Her Jewelry. |~ The Dawn Goes on a Cruise. A Fireman Honored. | ALAMEDA, Car., Sept. 17.—Dr. Eus- | tace Trenor, one of the oldestand best | known physicians of this city, died sud- | denly at 2 o’clock this afternoon at his home, 1312 Oak street, of heart disease, | superinduced by an attack of pneumonia. He had been conversing with his wife, | when he suddenly sank down and died. | The doctor came here from New York | City in 1861, and built up a good practice. | He conducted a private insane asylum in | conjunction with Dr. Tucker. It was lo- | cated on the lot in the rear of the present | Park Row. About twenty years ago the | place burned and was never rebuilt. He re- sumed his private practice and continued up to within & short time of his death. He bad been ailing for some time, but death was unexpected. Dr. Trenor was born in New York City in 1834, and was of a family of five boys, all of whom, with their father, were members of the noted Seventh Regiment New York Volunteers. Soon after com- ing here he enlisted in the Twelith In- fantry and was detailed as assistant sur- eon, which position he filled with credit or five years. He was at Fort Grant and Fort Tucson during this time. ‘He then settled here, it being in 1867, The deceased leaves a daughter, Mrs. McAllister, aud a widow, both of whom were with him at the last. He was form- erly a member of the Salvation Army, but cast hislot with the American Volunteers some time ago. ‘The funeral services will be held from the latter's headquarters in San Francisco next Sunday afternoon.

ALAMEDA, CAL., Sept. 17.—The placing of a complete church directory in all of the hotels, churehes and public places of the city has just been completed by the local union of Christian Endeavor socie- ties.

Mr. Wiese is away from home all day at his work. Last Tuesday his wife went over to Oakland to do some calling. Her husband reached home first and iound the doors open.

Mount Eden Will Open Her Big Wig- wam With a Barbecue, a Meet- ing and a Ball. OAELAND OFFICE SAN FRANCIECO CALL,} 908 Broadway, Sept. 17. 8o complex are the positions of the many candidates for the Republican nomina- tions at Monday’s convention that no one can, at this time, assert that his position is secure. On account of the conflicting boundaries of the Supervisorial, Assembly and Seuatorial districts, it is almost im- possible to make a trade and to guarantee that any delegation will stay traded. There will be three tickets in the field in nearly every district at Saturday’s primary, and when the results are known candidates will have to rush to and fro like the wind all Sunday to make new combinations ready for the convention which assembies in Lindemann Hall, Alameda, on Monday. The latest feature in the fight for Superior Judges is the coming to the front of Judge J. J. Allen. When elected Jus- tice of the Peace two years sgo, Judge Allen received the largest vote of any Justice, and he is still as popular. Hehas not yet completed the combination he will enter. He says that his ticket will be for the Third Ward candidates who have not rallied to the Greene-Hall ticket, but he will not mix up in the Senatorial fight. Supervisor Pelouze announced to-day that he will run independently to succeed himself. MOUNT EDEN, CaL., Sept. 17.—The Repnblicans of Mount Eden and vicinity are preparing for a big time Saturday afternoon and evening, when the new wigwam of the Mount Eden Republican Club will be formally dedicated to the cause espoused by McKinley and Hobart. The first of the exercises will commence at 2 o’clock in the afternoon, when a big meeting will be held in the new building. A fine programme has been prepared, in- cluding speeches and music, wgils other features will entertain. At the meeting C. M. Shortridge and Congressman 8. G. Hilborn will each de- liver an address on the issues of the cam- paign, and local orators will also bs heard. During the afternoon a regular old-fash- ioned barbecue will take place, and this will particularly interest the country people. In the evening a dedicatory ball will be given, which promises to be largely at- tended. The wigwam, which is an imposing structure, is to be gayly adorned with ban- ners and bunting, and will undoubtediy be the scene of more real Republican en- thusiasm than has been khown of in Mt. Eden’s history. ————— ; SUFFRAGISTS SPEAK. A Large Audience Hears Women Argue for Their Kights. OAKLAND, CAr., Bept. 17.—The Expo- sition building held an enthusiastic audi- ence of fully 2500 people to-night to par- ticipate in the first distinctive suffragist rally and mass-meeting held in this city during the campaign. The stage was beautifully decorated with the National emblems, palms, ferns, cut flowers and smilax. Mrs. Lloyd Baldwin, president of the Alameda County Political Equality Society, presided and was surrounded by a hundred or more of the most prominent men and women of the city. :mon the number were Rev. C. W. Wendte, Miss Mollie Connors, editorof Saturday Night; Mra. A. A. Moore, Mrs. Olive Clifford, Mrs. Ida A. Harper, Mrs. Nellie Holbrook- Biinn and Miss Winifred Harper. The first speaker was Mrs. Carrie Chap- man-Catt, who began by giving a review of the condition of women from the fourth century down to the present time, and de- clared that men had advanced during all these years, and that women had ad- vanced also, though they had been kept behind by men. With the close of the nineteenth century they desired to ask to be allowed to take their places beside their brothers and m{k' the world what it should be. She said\that the only rea- son women had not been enfranchised long ago was because the political parties and politicians had not been satisfied that they would benefit their special party. In support of this she auoted the fact that no Territory had ever been admitted to state- hood until known that it would support the party in power at the time and assist to keep it in power. Rev. Anna Shaw, the other speaker, has been here on several ‘occasions, and was warmly greeted when she faced the au- dience. She reviewed the situation as she found it in the State. *““The most danger- ous class,” she £aid, *is the wily, unscrup- ulous politician, with mone% to buy the votes of the ignorant class, Their power is more to be feared than that of any other class in the land.” e —————— Observed a Jewish Holiday, OAKLAND, CAL., Sept. 17.—Judge Ells- worth observed the. “Day of Atonement” to-day out of respect to several jnrors of the Hebrew faith who were listening to ihe testimony in the case of Catharina Moir against the Southern Pacific Rail- road. Two years ago a juror asked for a vacation at this time and was refused, and on the next day he died, UNCLE SHWS LONG-HARED BOY — Lyman P. Baare Is a Post- man Who Believes With Samson.

He was fortunate enough to see the great vol- cano in action, feel the eartn tremble and see the molten Java spurting out in balls of fire and then fall back again into the seething mass below. The Central Union Church of Honolulu is built from the same plans as Mr. Pal- mer’s church in this eity. It is considered a model in architecture and internal ar- rangements. It is a beautiful structure of lava stones and cost $135,000. Democrats Indifferent. OAKLAND, Car., Sept. 17.—The Demo- cratic primaries last night in this city were the quietest ever held. In some places not a dozen votes were cast. There ‘was no contest worthy the name, and as it had been given out that the Populists were to have half of the nominations few felt impelled to take the trouble to hunt up the polling-places and cast a ballot. SAVED THE DUMMY. But Had It Been a Human Body It Would Have Been the Same. | Williams is a barber, and he has offered to | a couple of inches higher to correspond to OAKLAND, Oar., Bept. 17.—The test of streetcar fenders to-day on Washington street attracted quite a crowd, among which Mayor Davie and aeveral Council- men appeared, as well as streetcar men and others interested. George Risch Muller, the San Francisco inventor, has a framework with a rope net which would pick up anything from a cat to a horse and buggv. It is soar- ranged that if a prostrate body is hit the et is lifted so as to pass over it, but in so doing a smaller apron under the car is dropped and scoops up the body. It is an impossibility for a body to get under the wheels with this apparatus in use. The |coor was set in to-day’s trials for a track that is above the street level, as in suburban traffic, it having been tried at Eimhurst, In the city, where the pave- ment is level with the rail, it has to be set Than Expose the LETTER-CARRIER BARRE, Who Lost Three Days’ Pay Rather Top of His Head. cut the hair, shampoo and -shave Letter- carrier Lyman P. Baare, it the latter will consent. But Mr. Baure will not even take off his hat, and it is highly danger- ous to any one to suggest hair-cutting to him. Baare has been the most notable char- acter in the Oakliand civil service for some years. His peculiarity consists of his long hair, which he will not cut and which he claims is the secret of his pres- ent good health. Baare’s hair is long enough to cover his shoulders and he ap- pears strangely out of place among such a trim body of men as there is in the letter- carrier service. Some time ago Baare lost three days’ pay rather than take his hat off while at- tending the delivery-window on Sunday. The clerk in charge saw Baare with his hat on handing letters to ladies through the window and told him it was not the roper thing, Baare persisted and was aid off that day, and when the matter was reported to the Postmaster Baare was Jaid off for two more days, and all because he would not take his hat off. No one e;,er remembers seeing Baare with his hat ofl. A few years ago Lyman Baare was in poor health when compared with his rovust constitution at this time. Heex- plained recently to a friend that the secret of the change was in his hair. He said that he believed in the story of Samson and is of the opinion that long hair is con- ducive to health and strength. Since lei- ting his hair grow Baare claims that his physique has wonderfully improved, and his appearance certainly bears out his claim, as he is a finely developed man. Postmaster White denied that he was trying to get some authority from Wash« ington to require Baare to cut his hair. "Ic am thinking of no such ridiculous thing,” said the postmaster to-day. I cannot force a man to cut his bair, 1 Ican do is to insist that every man shall present a neat, respectable appearance and I can ¢o no further.” Baare is a very reticent young man ana his long locks have made him very promi- nent. ile ties his hair with a narrow rib- bon at the back of his neck and owing to the notoriety which he has obtained on account of bis pecullarity he has been in- duced to place it on the top of his head 80 that 1t 18 covered by his hat. OFFICERS IN DOUBT. Supreme Court Decislon May Make Xt Necessary to Elect Jus. tices. OAKLAND, CaL., Sept. 17.—The gen- eral impression among the legal fraternity in this city is that the decision of the Supreme Court regarding .the term of offices in 8an Francisco has vacated the term of City Justices J. J. Allen and T. V. Wood at the end of this year, and that as a consequence there must be nominations made at the coming county conventions, The Supervisors will undoubtedly in- clude in the call for the general election the City Justices, and this will give the facumbents the opportunity to bring in- junction proceedings 1o prevent the names from being placed on the ticket. Ip case/this is not done those nominated at the conventions or those who choose to run independently wmlld.hring suit to have tbeir names placed on the ticket. The Superior Court would pass on the isswe in time for election, but it would then go to the Supreme Court. Palmer’s Return, OAKLAND, CAL., Sept. 17.—The Rey. 8. 8.

APPEAL TO REASON. Will Be Made by Prominent Republicans at the Exposition Next Week. OAKLAND, CAL., Sept. 17.—The press committee having the matter in charge issued the following circular to-night: Pursuant to custom, it has been decided to hold a grand mass-meeting of Alameda County citizens under the direction and auspices of the Republican State Central Committee dele- gation of this county.

The building will be closed until shortly before the arrival of the train. It is the aim of the State Central Committee- men to make this meeting one which will be not only a convention ol Republicans, but of every one who expects to cast a vote on No- vember 3, of every one who is interested in knowing what Republicans lay before them- selves and before the people as the issues of this campaign, and why they make their plea to the sound reason and particularly to the patriotism of every American.

His friends have calculated that Mr. Dutton took just a trifle less than a dime a day from be- neath the snow, and although the returned artist still refers to the ‘‘good prospects’ in the northland, it is not thought that there will be anotherexodus from Oaklund next spring. “If the Government does not send a revenue cutter up north to bring back some of the stranded gold-hunters,” said Mr. Dutton to-day, ‘‘there will be great suffering this winter. I took up enough food to last me all summer, and although provisions are not more than four prices, there are several people who are dependent oh charity, with no prospect of earning their fare home.” It is said that Mr. Dutton did not fare even as weilas he reported. His refusal to take the cork out led to the jocular rumor that the gold dust was filed from one of the “gold”’ bricks that havey figured so prominently in recent criminal proceed- ings in this city. WANTS 10 RUN- AGAIN Theodorianitis, the Aged Greek Sprinter, Ready for a Match. Important Viticuitural Experiments. Organizing a Free Siiver Ciub. BERKELEY, Car., Sept. 17.—Nikoloas Thecdorianitis, the sturdy old Greek, who ran eight miles in 64 minutes last Sunday over the rough road from Ban Pablo to Berkeley, as told in Tuk CALr, wants to make another run. But the next time he dons his running garb it will be in a con- test for a purse. Heran, or rather walked and ran, alone last Sunday, unpaced, with no particular object in view further than to limber up his legs and get back his wind. The hardy veteran Macedonian is look- ing for a man about 50 years of age to run against, notwithstanding the fact that he himself is in his seventy-seventh year. This race must be a time race. That is, the man who covers the greatest distance in the same period of time takes the laurel wreath and the purse. Theodorianitis says that he can do nothing in a short race, but that his strength lies in his ability to_run for ten hours, or even ten days. What he pro- poses is a race for ten or fifteen hours over some country road in the vicinity. ‘He is not particular whether it be hilly or as smooth as & barn floor, so long as his opponent has to run over the same course. The run which the old Greek took last Sunday was his first since winning the championship of Greece on the stadium in 1890. He has taken long jaunts into the country recently and has made some remarkably good time considering his age and lack of training. Parties in Berkeley who know of his record last Sunday are considering a proposition of putting up on the Greek in a long-distance race. 'hey are having Theqdor?anltis practice daily with the view t0 geiting into trim for a tryout. Tkrere is talk _of having him enterina race from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The aged sprinter has several times ex- pressed his desire to run that distance for a consideration. Vineyard Experiments. BERKELEY; Can. Sept. 17.—In- structor Hayne and Mr. Bioletti of the department of viticulture at the Siate University will leave to-morrow to con- duct 4 series of wine_exneriments at the Natoma vineyard in Napa County. They will take,along a quantity of bac- teria for fermenting purposes, and will employ a cooling machine for adjusting the temperature of wines, which was in- vented by Mr. Hayne. The general pur- pose of the experiments is to fiad means for making dry wines in climates where it is now impossible to doso.
