M. F. Colburn was_the late minister, have under consid- eration the erection of a monument in Cypress Lawn Cemetery to his memory. That the members of this church thought well of their late preacher whe had min- istered to their spiritual wants for the short period of one year prior to hisdeath, which occurred on the 22d of last S2ptem. ber, is made manifest by this act. At a meeting of some of the leading members of Grace Methodist Episco Church, among whom_were J. J. North, his son' & D. North, H. E. Sncok, T. 0. | Lewis and F. L. Turpin, it was decided to lace a granite monument over | mains of their late preacher. In order | that all might be given an opportunity to | contribute it was decided to open a sub- | scription list, limiting the amount given y each subscriber to $1 and no more. It is desired to give notoniy the mem- | bers of Grace Church an opportunity of | testifying to their devotion to his mem- but also the members of the congr ons at San Diego, Riverside and Oa me rushing down flea | Jand, where he had labored prior to his coming to this City. The intention of his friends in the Mis- | sion to mark his last resting place by a suitable monument was communicated to the officers of those churches, and the answers received gave assurance that sub- scriptions would be taken up at those sev- eral places and the amounts forwarded to this City. SMOTHERED T0 DEATH. A Baby Five Weeks Old Dies While Ity Parents Sleep. When E. W. Perkins and wife of 510 Jes- sie street awoke yesterday they found that their infant son, Ra¥mond H. Per- kins, had been smothered to death under | the bed clothing during the night, The child was five weeks old and siept with its parents. Although the lutter awoke sev- eral times during the night each supposed that the other had charge of the little one. They were greatly shocked upon finding that in some way the baby had been moved to the foot of the bed while thev were asleep and ad been suffocated. The Coroner was notified. As the child’s death was found to have been purely acci- dental and an inquest was waived by Mr. Perkins no further investigation will be | | made. —————— Ben True Ix Insolvent. Ben F.

The resolu- | tions empodied the statement that the California delegates had said the pulpit | bad not denounced Sunday racing. | The paper of the day at the Presby- terian Ministerial Union was by Rev, E. H. Jenks, on ‘“The Pastor as an Exeou- tive.” The Christian pastors drifted into the subject of prize-fighting in the discussion of a paper on “The Uses of the Religious Paper,” read by Rev. E. H. Berry, editor | of the Pacific’ Christian. Rev. Edwards Davis remarked that he would like to see the Pacitic Christian publish a strong | article on ““How the Americans Are Tol- | erating the Coming Prizefight.’” Mr. Berry replied that he was t00 much disgusted with the whole affair to men- tion itin his parer. Rev.Edwards Davis took a hoveful view of the matter, as he | thought pugitism in the long run’ would b ced outof the ring by culture. He rizefighting is a disgraceful exhi- bition of physical strength. It 1s debas- ing and is consequentiy being debased. I { hope the championship will finally go to Peter Jackson, then I should like to see him have a contest with sn orang- outang, that victory might go to the beast.’” “I think this prize-fight isa disgrace to | the State of Nevada and to the people of { the BState,”” said Mr. Berry. *Every thoughtful-minded person will count its cost; it is brutalizing, it will put & bad light on the acis of the Legislature and it will bring Nevada into antagonism with the Christian element of the country.” Rev. Wiliiam Ford rather startled some of the listeners by saying: ‘I think that this prize-fight between Corbett and Fiiz- simmons is just as justifiable as the the- ory Mr. Milis advecated in the Senate in regard to arbitration. If naiions haye a right to go to war, then individuals have a right to engage in prize-fights.”” Mr. Ford added that in both cases it was brain | versus brawn, His observations of the beads of Corbett and Fitzssmmens had led bim to the conclusion that Corbett | was the more brainy man of the two and | that consequently he would bs the victor | of the coming fray. Rev. Henry B, | wanted 1o know if brains bad anything to | do with prize-fighting. Mr, Ford assured him that they bad. *IfI bad had time,” | he said, *I” should have gone Sharkey-Fitzsimmons fight, for scientific reasons, to see the contest of brain and brawn. I we are to preach against evils we must see them as they exist.’’ | "Mr. Morgan said that the details of | prize-fighting are so woll xnown that he | did not think it is necessary for ministers e them. | None of the speakers condemned the | newspapers for giving detailed accounts | of fights, but tbey all gave it as their | opinion that Christians should make it their business to secure legislation forbid- ding t bility of centests of brute | force, | Rev. Dr. Harris was the speaker of the | day at the Methodist preachers’ meeting, | and he occupied his ailotted time in read- | ing extracts from a book that has recently | attracted some attention in the East and It is by Kernahan and is en- | Devil, or a Dream of a Christles- World.” | 7In discussing the paper Rev. Dr. Bovard | said he would like 1o draw attention 1o a signed letter by William McKinley | which recently appeared in the Omaha | Christian Advocate and the St. Louis A | vocate. n vouch for the gennineness of the letter,” said Dr. Bovard. “Its con. tents are an appeal tothe inaugural ball Morgan of Alameda | io the | committee declaring that the $50,000 col- lected for that festivity is far too large an amount to be spenton feasting wher so many are poor and hungry. The President- elect begs that $15,000 be given to the poor of American cities, §15,000 to the sufferers from the famine in India and $10,000 to the Armenian sufferers.” Rev. J. H. Smith said he had also read the letter purporting to come from Me- Kinley in the Methodist papers alluded to by the doctor, but that Republican papers in the East had denied the authenticity of the letter. Dr. Bovard said he wasin a position to vouch for its genuineness. At the Baptist Ministerial Union yester- day Dr. Jordan’s criticisms_on revival meetings were freely discussed. It was proposed to answer them through the | columns of the Baptist paper, but it was | afterward decided to write a kindly com- munication irom the body of ministers addressed to President Jordan direct. A committee compcsed of Rev. Dr. W. F. Binney, Rev. Dr. A. M. Russell and Rey. Robert W.itaker was appointed to write the communication. The opinion gener- ally expressed was that Dr. Jordan knew more about fishes than he did about re- vivals. A paper was read by Rev. W. F. Binney on “'The Day of Christ's Crucifigion.” Mr. Watt Ketarns From Fresno.

Mrs. Doyle Attacks Mrs. Flo- rence Shafer, Her Son’s Sweetheart. A Warrant Sworn Out for the Arrest of Mrs. Doyle on the Charge of Battery. That the course of true love never runs smooth has once more been exemplified in the case of Mrs. Florence Shafer, a hendsome young woman living at 307 Turk street. Mrs. Shafer has been wooed for some time by a young man named Doyle, who lived with his mother at 3017 Washington street. Mrs, Doyle does not approve of ber son’s choice and the lovers had .to meet clandestinely. Sunday afternoon Mrs. Shafer was anx- ious to see Doyle and she sent a messen- ger with a note to bim, telling bim that she would be waiting for him on Wash- ington street, between Baker and Brod- erick, and that she had something of im- portance to talk to him about. As the sequel proved Doyle did not get the note as he was out of the house at the time. Mrs, Doyle got it and being curi- ous to know who had sent it she opened it and the contents roused her anger. Mrs. Shafer was walking leisurely be- tween Baker and Broderick streets at the | appointed bour when she was suddenly and others are faliing in line with votun- | confronted by Mrs. Doyle, who had a tary additions to a general fund for the heavy umbrella in her right hand. She purchase of cereals and other cheap stand- | 8ccused Mrs. Shafer of trying to steal her ard breadstuffs. The idea is to send as soon as possible at least one shipload o tons, principa of corn, direct from San Francisco to Cal- cutta, India. The voyage will require five weeks. Already President Huntington, for the Soutbern Pacific Railroad Company, has promised ‘to transport 1000 tons of corn from Nebraska to San Francisco free of cnarge. Eastern railrosds converging to- | ward the corn centers arc offering conces- | sions in transportation for the same gen- eral plan of forwarding provisions west- ward by one of the main through lines to this City, Among them are the Chicago apd Rock Island, the Denver and Rio Grande, the Rio Grande and Western, the Chicago and Northwesterns the Union Pacific and tue Burlington. On Saturday Iast Senator Perkins tele- graphed to the head originators of the en- terpriss in this City that a resolution had unanimously passed the Senate authoriz- ing the Secretary of the Navy to transport | supplies donated by people of the United | States for the relief of the suffering people of India, and he said also that a delega- tion will urge the passage of the resolu- tion by the House. This is an unusual Government act, and, i successful, means that a ship will be furnished by the United Btates to carry | the people’s donations to the starving in India. But tne case is urgent, and humanpity dictates 1hat the people of this couniry should not calmly permit the poor of In- dia to starve to death when many of them may be saved at comparatively little cost, provided prompt action be taken by eciti- zens cognizant of the sad plight in which the natives of another land now find them- selves. There are in all India over 285,000,000 persons, over four times as many as in the whole United States. Three-fourths of that enormous population, three times as many persons as there are in this country to-day, are poorer than the poorest class known in the United States. And added to this common extreme poverty some of them are suffering from a plague that easily finds helpless victims among the starying. Corn is comparatively cheap in Ne- braska. A whole ton of the very best can be bought delivered at the cars for only §4. Every man that gives a dollar to the re- lief fund now practically gives 500 pounds of corn to alleviate the suffering of some helpless natives of India. Every child that gives but 20 cents gives 100 pounds of corn toward lessening a famine that already promises to be more devastating and more pitiable in its effects than the historic fam{ne of Ireland. Subscription blanks are being issued as rapidly as possible by Chairman W. W. Clark of the relief commiitee at the Chamber ot Commerce rooms in Cali- fornia street. Telegrams to and from boards of trades of different cities on this coast and in the East relative to the In- dian famine relief movement are bein transmitted free of charge by the Postal Telegraph Company and by the Western Union Telegraph Company. San Francisco, through its Chamber of Commerce, has taken the initiative in the matter, and is laying and carrying out the general pian. But the individual citizens of San Francisco and of California are looked to now to contribute little sums which in the oggregate shall make up Cal- fornia’s charitable offer to distant human son from her and after giving vent to her angry passions she struck Mrs. Shafer on | the head and body with the umbrella, emphasizing each blow with a remark that added bitterness to the injured lady’s | feelings. The attack was so unsuspected that Mrs. | Shafer was bewildered for a minute or two and then she did the only sensible thing in the circumstances, took to her heels and ran as fast as she could, leaving Mrs. Driyle in undisputed pessession of the eld. A crowd_had quickly gathered anc to them Mrs. Doyle told ber grievance as she pointed to the fleeing figure of her woula- be daughter-in-law. Mrs. Shafer, still chafing nnder the cas- | tigation she had received, made her ap- | pearance in Judge Joachimson’s court | yesterday and asked for a warrant for Mrs. | Doyle's arrest on the charge of battery. | Afier relating the circumstances to war- rant clerk Drury she said: *I don't in- tend that Mrs, Doyle shall go unpunished. Iam as good as her son and she had no right to insult me by beating me with an umbrellaon the public street. ~She ruined my hat, wbich cost me$14, and I shall bear the marks of the biows on my back and shoulders for some time to come.” There was no mistaking Mrs, Shafer’s attitude. The angry tears were in ber eyes as sho spoke of the umbreila attack, ana she signed the complaint in a firm hand charging ‘“Jane Doe" Boyle with battery. BOYLE'S MURDER TRIAL. imony Begun in Judge s Court Yesterday, Martin Boylie, who killed Michael Lynch in this Ciiy on the 25th of October, is on trial for murder in Judge Waliace's court. The following-named citizens were ac- cepted as jurors: Charles T. Dennis, J. C. Callen, J. P. Flannery, Horace B. Angeil, G. Bettman, L. T. House, Jonn J. Murphy, John Bennett, William A. Hewitt, Matthew Culligan, William J. 8mith, John B. Rider. The testimony showed that Boyle and Lynch had a quarrel, and it is claimed that Boyle hit ?‘ynch on the head with a pair of scissors, Lynch was taken to the Keceiving Hospital, where tbe attending physicians said they could not see any- thing the matter with nim, so he walked home, near the corner of Vallejo anu Kearny streefs. Lynch-worked in a tannery four days after that, and on the fifth day suffered from a stroke of paralysis, He was re- moved to the County Hospital and soon afterward died. The theory of the prose- cution, represented by Deputy District Attorney A. P. Black, is that the stroke on the head administered by Boyle caused Lynch’s death. On the other hand, Attorneys Cook and Sweeney, who speak for the defense, contend that Lynch’s death was the result of natural causes. Further testimony will be taken to-day. The case attracts a great deal of attention, and the courtroom is crowded with peopls from North Beach and vicinity. e Died in Prison. James Hoey, a painter, died at the Branch County Jail yesterday afternoon. Death is supposed to have been caused by excessive drinking previous to his incarceration. Sev- eral davs ago Hoey was sentenced by ome of the Police Judges to_three months’ imprison- beings in dire distress. ment for disturbing the peace. NEW TO-DAY.
