In childhood in England we attended a “church school,” and there obtained impres- sions which in subsequent years have re- curred from time to time with increasing force. They have been influential in prompt- ing us to meditation and research along his- torical and doetrinal lines. Our impressions nave deepened into convictions. We bave greatly enjoyed and we have been aivinely blessed in our Congregational fellowship; it is a deseryedly honored denomination, whose weliure shall ever be our prayerful concern. By_comparison there s, doctrinaliy, no essen- tial difference between Congregationalism and the Protestant Episcopal church. In forms of worship the difierence is lessening. An E: copal ciergyman, formerly a vrominent Con- gregationa. pastor, remarked to the write “With increasing delight and satisfaction I use and am supported by the sysiem and methods of the church, 1am not aware that anything of value in Cengregationalism has been /ost to me by the change.” 5 But while the testimony of others, the incli- nations of taste, the marked liturgical trend of the age, and the impressions of childhood might constitute a sufficient cause for enter- ing the Prot nt Episcopal church, ne theless we have come slowly and prayerfully to that ste First—Be¢ To that church he refers, Matt. xviii:17, and | there states for all coming time the 1nitial A SURPRISE FOR HIS OLD | ASSOCIATES.

The whoie matter was intended to be kept secret for some time, but it'leaked out and seems to have taken the officers and members of his old church entirely by surprise, as they were given no intima- tion of his intention in this regard. Dr. Williams will leave with his family for his old home at Oberlin, Ohio, where | bLe intends to put his dau-hter to school. He has no definite plans for the imme- | diate future, he says, except that he shall engage in religious literary work and ul- timately enter the Epincopal ministry. He has made no application for examina- tion for such orders as yet. There are three steps necessary to be taken in order to become a priest of the church, each one of which is ordinarily separated by six months—that of a postu- iant, then a deacon,and then a priest. In his case, however,’ & man of his years and experience, Dr. Wiiliams says, might accomplish the three examinations in one and within a month’s time. However, he says, ne has not fuliy determined upon making the apphcation. The following is a statement prepered by Dr. Williams himself, giving his reasons for taking the step he has: In response to the request of THE CALL I beg to sny: In entering the Protestant Episcopal church many persons, not well informed in ecclesias- tical” chauges and exchanges, may think & | vory unusual circumstance has transpired. | ere 1s a large and creasing influx of | communicants from the various denomina- tions into that church, and it is estmated t one-third of its clergy were once minie- | other evangelical bodies.

Baldwin—Lucky Baldwin—hotel man and horseracer, is either in luck be- cause he is able to borrow so much or out of luck because compelled to ask heavy loans; but at any rate he appears to be on both sides of the proposition. Within a comparatively short time he has borrowed over & million and a half of dollars, and yesterday he added to the total by getting $85,000 from the Hibernia Savings and Loan Society. To secure this large amount he gave a blanket mortgage on the Baldwin Hotel, on the annex to the hostelry, on his residence property on California street, near Jones, on property on Webster and Fell streets, on Stevenson-street property and on his big real estate holdings in Los Angeles city and county. Anotnher document filed tranaferred to the Hibernia Bank all the rents and other incomes of his various properties to secure interest and the mortgace itself. This loan makes a total of $1,670,000 owing the Hibernia Savings and Loan Society. Several months ago Baldwin concen- trated the incumbrances on his big hold- ings into a single blanket mortgage, which | was taken up by the bank mentioned. 1t is said that his necessity for so large an amount of ready rouey 18 that he fs engaged in a vast irrigation scheme in the southern part of the Suate, d that he anticipates immense returns from this | when t e system is in working order.

Stahle for Emb-zzl ment Was Filed in Court—Bail F.xed at $2000 The Grand Jury went into Judge Sea- well's court yesterday afternoon and pre- sented an indictment charging Dr. F. H. Stahle, ex-superintendent of the City and County Hospital, with embezzlement., On motion of Assisiant District Attorney Hinklea bench warrant for the arrest of Dr. Stahle was issued and the bail in the case fixed at §2000. The indictment voted upon last Tuesday and presented to the court yesterday is the outcome of the in- vestigation concerning Dr. Stahle’s man- agement of tne hospiial. The testimony submitied to the Granda Jury was to the effect that Dr. Stahle jurchased expensive furniture to equip his quarters at the City institution and then upon his removal from office tock away to his own residence furniture which belonged to the City. An investigation of a charge that the school census roll of 1895 had been stuffed was begun by the Grand Jury yesterday afterncon. The charges or insinuations emanated from School Director Walier and James Wardell, the present Census Marshal, but the investigation was de- manded by W. W. Bausman, the Census Marshal from 1892 until 1896. Waller and otber newly fledged mem- bers of the Board of Education joined Wardell in a superficial inspection of the rolt of 1896 and jumped at the conclusion that 71,822 school cuildren petween the ages of 5 and 17 years could not have been actually enrofled. According to Wardell's testimony nataes obtained by sending out bianks to the schools, and names obtained directly by the deputies in the progress of canvassing were duplicated. Considerable hubbub was made in the Board of Education and also in one of the morning newspapers over this discovery, but when the Grand Jury sent, at Mr. Bausman’s request, for the field bio book, the comparison book and cany: ing book of 1596, the sensation was auickly exploded. It was shown so conclusively that only additions haa been made and that no duplications had been entered, that the Grand Jury at once decided that the inquiry should be laid on the table until Marshal Wardeil completed the en- roliment for I Wardell presumably found the name of John Blank’s family twice on the roli and jumped at the conclusion that there had veen stuffing. Mr. Bausman told the Grand Jury that it frequently happened that a Deputy Marsbal would go to a house and get the names only of the chil- dren attending school. He would return his list with two children accredited to Joun Blank's residence, No. 1000, on street So-and-so. In regular order John Biank would get, through one of his chil- dren attending school, the return blank sent to the schoolhouse, and would prob- ably enumerate two more children of the family not attending school, or four in all. indue course of time, when the re- | turn blanks were classifiea and blocked for comparison, the deputy’s report for that block, street and number would be compared with the return blank, and the record would be corrected by adding *two children” to John Blank, 1000 street So- mbined Wardell and Waller in- tellect was not equal to a comprehension of such an accurate but simple method of enumeration and tuerefore the cry of fraud was raised. Wardell made a poor showing when que-tioned by the Grand Jury yesterday. “The fact was brought out that he has sixty-eight deputies to assist him, whereas Bausman had only forty-eight in 1896. According to the last registration and vote of Ban Francisco, and in proportion to the known population of the City, there should be at least 76,000 children between the ages of 5 und 17. Even ikis is far be- low the proportion found in many coun- ties of the interior. he number reported in 1896—that is, 71,822 —indicated only an increase of 1800 over that of 1895. In 1893 the number of census children enumerated was 65,317, Following the rule that the population should be four and one-half times more than the number of census children, the enrollment ot 71,822 names in 18% indi- cated a population of 323,199. Every one familiar with the growth of San Francisco knows that the enrollment is below rather than above the actual number of children entitled toenrollment. It is regretted by the Grand Jury that statements have been sent broadcast to the people of ihe State that the San Fran- cisco school suthorities hed stuffed the census roll in order to obtain a larger share of the State school money than the actual numbver of children warranted. San Francisco annually pays into the State treasury a very much larger sum of money op school tax account than is re- ceived in return by the process of appor- tionment. The law which requires the census to be taken between April 15 and 30th of each year, may give ample time for enrollment of school children in rural towns ips, but the time is not adequate for canvassing the City and making the proper recount. It was disclosed in Mr. Bausman'’s testi- mony yesterday that forty deputies wonld be sufficient providea the Census M.rshal had authority to engage capabie and ex- perienced deputies. As the patronage is now distributed each director in the Board of Education bandsthe Marshal a list of so many persons to be employed, and many of the men on the lists so furnished are ignorant or ineflicient. It was distinctly brought out by the in- vestigation yesterday that Ex-Marshal Bausman was paid a certain sum per day for his work and that his compensation could not be increased by stuffing the roil. t1s the ovinion of the Grand Jury that Wardell, with his sixty-eight deputies, should go to work diligently and enroll all the children beiween the ages of five and seventeen. If the work can be done as it skould pe no less than 76,000 children will be reported. That number would in- dicate the population of San Francisco to be 342,000. In the Eastern States population is reck- oned by multiplying by six the number of votes cast. Should San Francisco adopt this ratio a population of 420,000 could be claimed. Aurelius E. Buckingham, chairman of the committee on tax collector and license collector, submitted a report yes- terday to the whole bodv of the Grana Jury. Lxpert Robert Coliymore shows that in the years from 1884 (o 1893, inclu- sive, there were sold 13,597 pieces of prop- erty at delinquent tax sates and 5346 ware redeemed during that time, leaving 7751 pieces of real estate in tax-buyers’ hands. It is sugrested that the tax sales con- tained in fifty volumes be condensed into one volume. It would be a great saving vice-presiaent: 'Alvinza Hayward. second vice- president; N. T.

Sues M. H. de Young, Editor of the Chronicle, for $50,000 for Libel. Mrs. Maria Theresa Maison by her at- torney, W. W. Foote, has sued M. H. de Young for $50,000 demages for libel. The complaint states that on the 7th of last month the defendant falsely, wickedly and maliciously published an article in the San Francisco Chronicle seriously re- flecting on her =ood name. By that article, she avers, the readers were led to believe that she obtained ad- miesion to a Mardi Gras ball in 1896 sur- reptitiously and without invitation; tnat she was not a woman of gooa morai char- acter, and had conducted herself at the ball in & manner unbecoming & woman of good moral character; that she was a woman of loose morals; that her actions caused other young ladies to remain away from subsequent similar entertainments, and that ske was ‘‘a social pariah’ and one who had been rejected and condemned by society. | Mrs. Maison alleges that all the matters thus published by Mr. de Young are false, and that they were maliciously intended to injure her in her name and reputation, and greatly humiliated her and caused ber distress and suffering. Wherefore she demands the payment of $50,000 damages, costs of suit and $100 atiornev’s fees.

Maud Altrige and Edith Woolley, two little misses who can boast of but 13 years, each wished to be an actress. Edith had already had a brief taste of life behind the footlights. When a wee bit of a girl she had played infant parts with Ethel Brandon, and the glamour of the greenroom has ever since seemed to nher something akin to paradise. Yesterday morning they leit for school at the proper time, but, once out of sight of their respective homes, they hurried to a trysting-place, where they compared re- sources and perfected their plans. Maud had three pear! finger-rings and her com- panion had a modest pair of earrings. These they promptly disposed of at a pawnshop, and they were ready to start on their journey. That the theatrical profession might be overstocked with youthful prodigies not once entered either imaginative brain. Etbel Brandon, Edith said, was now play- ing in Sacramento.

The three policemen who were crediteu | by an evening paper with having cast | aspersions on Judge Kerrigan’s acts were | placed in a very uncomfortable position | and only extricated themselves by admit- ling that they knew absolutely nothing on which to base the accusations made. Judge Kerrigan was naturally much in- censed when the story appeared in an evening paper several days ago and at once cited the officers—Sergeant Mahoney and Patrolmen Mackey and Shaw—to ap- pear before him and explain themselves. Muhoney appeared on Thursday and de- nied absolutely having given the inter- view in which he was quoted as having smd“mlt the boys had oecen released on a “pull.” Yesterday he qualified his testimony by stating that when the patrolmen had tol1 bim that the cases against the three boys had been dismi-sed he had declared that if the Police Courts did not support the police more the latier would have to make irequent use of their clubs. Tuen he declared that he knew of noth- | g of a pullin the case, and that he wes ready and willing at any time to sign a statement that he knew of nothing against | the character or actions of the Justice. | Patrolmen Shaw and Mackey were equally certain that they knew notning that would tend to show that any influ- ence had been attempted on the Judge. | The former had heerd $ stranger say 1o | Sergeant Cullea that “something must be done to get the boys out of trouble.” Those in the courtroom smiled at the men. tion of the accommodating “stranger,” and the Justice expressed rims:lf assatis- | fied and dismissed the matter with the re- | mark that he had merely called the vo- licemen into court to set himself rignt | before ths publi | Justice Kerrigan is one of the most re- | spected voung public officials at the City | Hall, and of the iew people Who saw the original story nextto none lo take any stock in it.

A number of prominent lawyers | were present to see that the matter should o along smooihly. The suit crows out of the famous forgery of a §22,000 check by the Becker-Creezan- Dean gang, in which the two banks were viciimized, the Crocker-Woolworth finally sufferinz by girect payment of the check through the clearing-house operations, Some testimony was taken and the fur- ther hearing was continued for a week. ————— ViEWS of Michael Davitt, the Irish patriot, in to-day’s Si . e S Pity ’'Tis, *Tis True.
