J. Stephens of |~ tbhe Simpson Memorial Church Sun- day evening. A portion of his remarks | was as follows: “Society isa very extensive term. We confine it to-night to that branch of the social life of humanity which pertains to pleasures and amusements. Social inter- course was divinely ordained, and the happiness that flows from a legitimate in- dulgence in it isa moral power which no church should condemn. The society for a Christian must be a Christian society, and the drawing-room ought to be, in a sense, as sacred as the church. We say nothing against society or social hLfe ex- cept in 80 far a8 its spirit and its practices are un hristian. The Scriptures condemn the socie'y of the ungodiy, the sinner and | the scornful. The best society is that in which these elements are wanting. Soci- ety ought to be ‘exclusive’ in the matter | of banishing such people from its circles. | The most pernicious thing about society is that it persists in_calling and thinking that the best and highest which Ireely ad- mits such characters, drawing the line only at yoverty or humble birth. Prob- | ably in no other sphere of life is therea more urgent need for the application of | the principles of the Nazarene than in our | social affairs. |“Ye Will Not Come,” | Said the Master. HE Rev. W. A. Gardner of the West Side Christian Church preacued last night on the probiem of why there are so few conversions. He said: “Of the many thousands of adults who | annuaily die ia the United States only a few are converted Christians. In Francisco there are about 100 Protestant ministers and eighty Protestant churches, | surported at a weekly cost of at least $2000, and yet it isnot a very rare thing for all | these ministers and churches to labor a | week without converting one sinner. “One of the greatest problems consid- ered by present-day Christians 1s why the number of the converted are so few. Much | of the theology of the past has been such as 10 cast the blame upon God, it having been taught in creed ana from the pulpil that conversion was #s much a_miracle as creation, and that God had the love to | convert the most hardened sinner if he | chose to do 0. ““Our text, ‘Ye will not come to me that | ye mignt bave life, is a sinele, straiz | Torward sentence, and answers the que | tion *Why are there so few conversions | “*Man, with an accusing conscience, has | made a thousand excuses ior his irrelig- | ious life, but these are all swept away by | the Master’s ‘Ye wili not.’ Conversion is | & radical thing; itis a ‘Kight about face’ in living. Itis a change of life—a change | of character. You have been goingon the down grade of sin—you tura about and travel on the upward grade of righteous- | ness. Men are doing hard things and making radical changes in the realm of politics and finance to secure earthly prize; why not in the spiritual realm to secure a crown of eternal lije?” Cstilaeion | The Atonement Satisfied the Law. | sermon on the subject of the atone- ment was delivered yesterday morn- ing at 8t. Paul’s German Lutheran Church by the pastor, J. M. Buetler. After alluding to the fact that the hu- man race has ever in the most solemn | manner by its religious rites and cere- | monies recognized the necesaity of an atonement for sin, the pastor offered an | explanation for this fact in stating the | reasons from which, in ali probability, it had arisen. He declared that man is by | the very nature of his moral being con- | scious of the truth that sin must bring the punishment of offended holiness and | justice upon the sinner, that therefore isomethinz must be done to avert this punishment and to regain the lost favor of God. | The pastor presented in his theme the | absolute assurance with which we ma; | depend on the atonement made for us by | Christ, showing first the evidence on | whicn'this assurance rests, and secondly | the happy effects that this assurance | should produce. Th= evidence was that | Christ came by God’s own will and ap- poiniment as the anointed hizu priest of the worid; that he in kis twofold nature possessed the personal qualitications for this work ; that by his fultillment of God’s | immutable law in its requirements and its | penaities he complied with every demand | of divine justice, and thus made = full and perfect atonement for sin. t- | Thorns Sprang Up | and Choked It. | ECTOR M. D. WILSOX of St. Peter’s Episcopal Churen preached Sunday morning from the text, Luke viii, 7 and 14, “The thorns sprang up and choked it * * * ana it brought no iruit to per- fection.” He said: 3 “The thorns are present with us, all the things which tend to retard the life of the soul. The life of the individual is thein- | tegral part of the life of the State. Where | mdividual lives are pure and true and | Worshipful and disciplined, then life of | the State is safe. Waere individual lives yield to the thorns and aliow them to con- quer, then the life of the State is in dancer. ““One of the daneers of our Californ life te-day lies in the thorns of the undi: ciplined lives of so many of our boys and irls Who will so soon bs our men and women. This lack of discipline shows it- self in many ways; among others, in the absence from the worship of God, in the disrespect to ¥nrenu, in the reckless use of firearms. The root of the matter is al- lowing the thorn of discipline 1o choke ont the good seed of the word of God; and the people seem to love 1o have it ~o, And what will we doin the end thereof?" e ey Love for Enemies Is Not Impossible.

The “Pride of Company G” Wi'l Make His Last Appearance. | There has been considerable speculation | as to what will be done with Colonel Sh ter, commanding the post at the Presidio, | who a short time since was granted leave Sergeant Puckett, the Pride of | Company G. of absence for one month. He isin line of promotion, and in view of the retire- ment of Major-General Ruger he will be advanced, as the retirement of the major- ceneral will cause advancement all along the !ine. The probabilities are that Colonel Shafter will be commissioned a brigadier-general and that he will then be assigned 1o one of the departments, possi- | bly the Department of the Columbia. Sbould that prove 1o be correct then the post at the Presidio will go to the ranking colonel, who is Henry C. Cook, colonel of the Fourth Infantry. The gradiug of the territory north of the old parade-grouud at the Presidio, which has been | going on for some time, has given rise to a great deal of gossip. The question that has | often been asked is, “Why does the Govern- | ment want such a large parade-ground as it | will be when the new ground 1s added tv the | old, which will be done as soon as the grade ou | the’ eastern end of the 0ld ground shall have been completed. if onlv a dezen companies are | to be kept at the post?” There are some who say that thisis being done 1o accommodate a | Iarger number of men, and that it Is the inten- tion of the department 1o have a full regiment of cavalry at the post us well a8 two regi- ments of infantrs. It has even been men- tioned that the Twenty-fourth Infantry is to | be ordered to the post. Whatever the purpose | of the Government is in having the extepsive improvements mede at the post, it 1§ true that it will be an immense parade-ground for the few companies there now. 1t is said to be the purpose of the War De- partiment Jo_concentrate the bulk of the 1ro0ps Now in the State at one central potn! | and tnat point is the Presialo. It is urge | that there is no mecessity for maintaining 1roops at Angel Islend or the Benicia bar- racks, but these cannot be brought here for | the ason that there is no sccommodation | for them, and there is no appropriation for | buliding ‘any. The Represcntutives from ifornia have on many occasions had thelir a! tention drawn to this matter, but they have | not pressed for money for sdditionsl quarters. It is almost certain that if the money was pr vided for the purpose & post would be estab- lisked at the new fortifications beyond Fort Winfield Scott. One will have to be estab- lishea tnere eventully, for the disiance is too | far from the Presidio. Next Wednesday there will be held at the Presidio the post field day, the last one before the grand tournament, which is to last sev- eral days.

Brilliant Programme Prepared for Next Tuesday Evening. The concert of the Loring Club an- nounced for the evening of Tuesday, April 6, promises to be one of the most interest- ing concerts which that club has given for some considerable time. The principal composition, on the pro- gramme is a setting of Kingsley’s “Long- beards’ Saga,” by C. Harford Lloyd, an English composer of the front rank. This is written for male voice chorus and piano accompaniment (not for orchestra), and the work appeals not only to the musician but to the averaye listener. The programme includes Billeter's “‘Sunset,”’ for tenor solo and male-voice cborus, and Genee’s *‘Italian Salad,” the tenor solo in which will be sung by Frank Coftin, while the solo in Bilieter’s *‘Sun- set’’ has been assigned to Mr. Desmond. Schubert’s “The Gondoliers’ is a dainty example of the genial composer whose centenary has lately been universally hon- ored, and an admirable contrast to this on the present programme is Arthar Foote's **The Bedouin Love Song.” The club_will have the assistance, as soloist, of Mrs. Edgar J. Malmeren, who will make her public reappearance in the San Francisco musical world on tbis oc- casion. The accompanist of the evening will be Mrs. Carmichsel Carr,and D. P. Hughes, the conductor of the club, will as usual direct the concert. The coming concert is theahird of the twentieth season, and judging from the fact that not only 1s the active member- sbip full, with an_auxiliary list to draw on, but that the demand for tickets for this concert has already exbausted the supply, 1he interest of the workiug mem- | bers and the musical public seems to have LAID TO REST. Funeral of Henry Livingston From Pioneer Hall. The funeral of the late Henry Liv-| ingston took place yesterday afternoon from Pioneer Hall. It was largely at- tended by sorrowing friends, many of whom were much affected during the per- formance of the beautiful service of the Pioneers. The casket, placed in front of the ros- trum, was buried under flowers, and im- mediately at the foot towered a great cross of lilies, a token from George Metcalf. The service began Dy the singing of Nearer My God to Thee,” by a choir led by Miss Addie Turner. Rev. Dr. Case delivered a short funeral address, which was followed by the read- ing of the Pioneers’ burial service by the marshal of the society, Jobn F. Pinkham. Rev. Samuel H. Willey then peid a beautiful tribute to the deceased, being a review of his association with him in labor for higher education. This was concluded with the tenediction, after which the friends present took their last look at ti > face of the dead. The interment took place at Masonic Cemetery, the Pioneers’ plat, where the marshal read the service. The pall-bearers were: Henry Palmer, G. Metcalf, James Haworth, J. P. Bering, J. F. Lowry, J. H.

Movement to Re-establish It and Maintain It by Contri- butions. Proposition - to Be Discussed in the Temple Bmanu-El To~ Night. For a number of years there was main- tained in this City by the Independent Order of B'ne B'rith a religious free scheol for the education of juvenile Israelites. It was carried on with a view to keep in the minds of the young pupils the religion and traditions of the Jewish people. For a time those eligible to that education were the chilaren of members of the order, but as time wore on children of non-members were admitted, and toward the latter part of last year the number of pupils reached about 250. The school was held in one of the rooms of the B'ne B'rith building on Eddy street, and | it was continued there for some time. Then it was removed to one of the syna- | gogues south of Market street. | The matter of educating children of | non-members was one that was frequently | brought up in the lodgeroom and there | were many warm discussions, some hold- | ing that the school should be conducted i on the lines on which it was first started and others more liberal minded were of “the opiniorn that all children of the Jew ish faith should receive the instruction imparted. s | At the session of the District Grand | Lodge held 1 Stockton last January a committee was appointed to inquire into | the expediency of continuing tne school, and upon the report presented it was de- cided to withdraw the support of the lodges from the school, but this was done | with the understanding that other means | would be provided to continue the school. | On the 26th of last February fifteen | Israelites of this City metin the Temple Emauu-El, discussed the proposition to continue the school by voluniary contri- | butions, ana 8 committee was named to | prepare a plan. This committee has per- fected a plan which will be presented to a general meeting of Israelites to be held this evening in the temple. The committee has issused an unsigned circular which has been distributed to every prominent Israeiite in this Uity and in that there is the following: The question now 1o be solved by the Jewish community of this City is: How to promote the religious education of our poor Jewish outh. ?Iutrinsically a religious education is desir- shie in iiself; from the standpoint of good cit- izenship il is & necessity; whiie as Jews it is sirays from the flock.
