Al- sacrificing faith. The one will not do without the other. Harken now (o these things whicn vou have heard in youth, and in after life there will be no danger. First comes instructive inteliigence, for we must stud. our religion. The Master said: “Be ye teachers,” and “'Go and teach them whatve have heard.” The apostles were first terchers. And as for the secoud ancuor, “Faith 1s the root and foundaton of all re- ligion.” The knowledge of your religion must come firsuin your spiritusl life, in order that vou may understand it and appreciate its beau ties. But religious study shouid not be haphaza:d, but svsiematically cirried on day by day. Our intelligence must guide S toa higher life. What you will be in aiter life as men and Christians will depend upon your re.igious traning in youth; norshould the observance of your relizion be relegaied to one dav in ihe week or one hour of the day. Your religious life must be ciosely interwoven with your secular life, You may say the dangers are not many. But gradusily poison may enter the mind. First one evil thought comes, then another, till the strength of the Intellect. is shattered d the spiritual temple within undermined. Grad- suily we fecl the changes. We grow what the worid calls broad minded. We haveno rightto grow liberal with what is not ours. Divine truths were given us by God through the Nezarene. He must find them as he left them. The moment we tamper with it, it goes Tom us. Therefore I want to impress upon you particularly to pay close at- tention to your religious insiruction in col- lege. Religion forms the character, secular know!edge does not. The second anchor is faith. More people go out of e church, not ecuuse (hey are not willing to believe, but because the obiigetions of ‘heir iaith are disagreeable to them. "1f vou negiect holy mass on Sunday it causes a break in your religious lite. We lose more by moral delin- quencies. Theretore, my children, it will not do for you mereiy to know vour religon—you must also liveit. It wiil not do for you to have mere instructive inteligene:; you must have also a confirmed and sacrificing faith, It is not the soldier who oes patriotic talking, but the soldier who do:s patriotic deeds who is going to benefit hiscountry. I say to vou, iove your church, uphold its dignity, defend i, deny it never. In the aiternoon an eleborate feast was served in the banquet-rooms of tie col- DR. C. O.

Heknew thatonly gradoaily does it fall away. This is the his. fory of every soul—it drifis away slowly by de- grees down the streams of p:ssi b and of sin out on ihe ncean ot crime and infidelity.

But Fow *‘ Exes."” BERKELEY, CaL, May 4.—A strong tendency to work the complete or almost complete abolition of examinations at the State University has manifested itself during the period of “exes’’ now at its beight. More students in proportion to the size of the classes have been excused from the “exes” tbis term than at any other period in the history of the institu- tion. By resolution of the Academic Sen- ate, recently passed, all professors and in- structors were empowered to excuse from examinations whatever students they saw fit. Asa consequence the bulletin-boards of the various departments have been crowded with lists of student excuses, all who have maintained a high record dur- ing the term being aliowed to pass with- out being suffered to und-rgo the final test. Those who have been required to take the “‘exes,” on the other hand, find them unususlly difficult. For Higher Degrees.

FATAL EFFECT OF BAD LEMONADE Little Emelia Kilssling Ex- pires at Danville in Great Agony. Eghte2n Young Children Drank of the Beverage From a Meta! Bucket, The Acid Corroded the Z aoc aud Created a Deadly Peison, Producing S vere Sickness OAELAND OrrFicE SAN FrANcCIScO CALL, 908 Broadway, May 4. Emelia Kilssling died at Danville to-day after suffering great torture for many bours from drinking poisoned lemonade. Thecircumstances attending the death of iittle Emelia, who is but 8 years of age, is very disiressing, but the cause of her death is eatily accounted for. Last night the 1 dies of the local Rebecca Lodge gave a social, and when it adjourned it was found that there was a quantity of lemon- ade left over. It was placed in a tin bucket and left over night, and given to the school children in the morning. The little people drank the lemonade very freely, and altogether eighteen scholars at (he public school are now very sick. Soon after drinking the poisoned lemonade they were attack-d with con- vuisions and suffered great pain. Some of them were relieved by vomiting, and this probably saved their live But others were subject 1o violent ~pasms, and could do notking 10 aid themselves. Pnysicians were calied in and the little pecple were reated with heroic remedies; but Emelia Kilssling,who was a frail little girl, did not recover from the shock and died to-day. An examination of the dregs in the bucket showed that the acid of the lemon- ade had acted witii the zinc lining to pro- duce a vioient poison. 1t is not thought that any of the other children willsuccumb to their sickness, as in most cases the danger point had been passed. In casesof lead poisoning, how- ever, thera are frequently after effects which cannot be guarded acainst, and it is possible that the affair may end yet more seriously than is anticipated.

ALAMEDA, CaL., May 4.—At a meet- ing of the Board of Trustees last night the iaundry ordinance came up for discussion, or rather what was supposed to be the amended ordinance governing.such insti- tation. Afterit bad been discussed for some time it was suddenly announced that the ordinance was not properly be- fore the board, never having been legally introduced. The ordinance was there- upon at once offered by one of the Trus- tees, and was referred to the proper com- mitlee. Subsequent investigation, how- ever, showed that the whole proceeding was incorrect, as the ordinance haa ac- tually been introduced according to law. The City Teaming.

Heretofore the city bas kept a team and driver for the pur- pose of doing the draying and hauling, which in the course of s month amounts to a great deal, while the expense is also considerable. At a meeting of the Trus- tees last night J. D. Fietcher offered to furnish a team and do all the work for $50 a month. Gotilieb Schumacher thereupon offered to do the work for $30, and the Trustees seeing the opportunity for a good saving immediately ordered that bids be called for to do the work. The Tidal Canal, ALAMEDA, Car, May 4.—The sharp and prompt comment of the paperson the nuisance created in the tidal canal by the poisoning of fish from the dumping of refuse into the estuary by the tanneries on the Oakland shore produced prompt results, as the practice was discontinued as soon as the press took it up, together with the health authorities of this city. The communicati n ot Health Officer Mc- Lean to the State Fish Commissioners was replied to 10 the effect that the remedy lay with the Health boards of the two cities, but that if there were any further wholesale destraction of fish the Commis- sioners would look into the matter.

The Sportsmen’s Protective Association held a large and enthusiastic meeting last evening in K. of R. B. Hall. Presigent Ahern reported that he had received word from Judge Muraskey, who is one of the attorneys for the associa- tion, that the case of Charles W. Kellogg, who is president of the Cordelia Duck Shooting Club, against certain represent- atives of the association, ¥no had been accused of trespassing on the plaintifi’s preserve 1n the Suisun marshes, came up yesterday in Fairreld for rehearing before Judge Buckles of Solano County, and that, as the plaintiff's counsel did not have any witnesses present, the Judge granted him a postponement of the case until such time as witnesses can be se- cured. Mr. Kellogg was questioned by Judge Muraskey, but he failed to remember haviug seen any of the men who were aceused of trespass shooting over the club’s demesne at any time. The Cor- delia Club members state that their legal batties and the expenses attached to the hiring of keepers, etc., amount to thou- sands of dollars, which outlay makes duck-shooting on the Suisun marshes a rather expensive luxury for the lessees of shooting preserves. The Protective Association is making ARGONAUT 0K WHISKEY Is Five Years In Wood Befor ‘BOURBON/ i MARTIN&CT L PRoPRicTons LUl E, MAATI @ CO., 411 Market St. San Francisco.

THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREATHENT POk WEAKNESS OF H WHICH ( URED HIM AFTER EVERY- THING ELSE FAILED, Painful diseases are bad enough, but when a man is slowly westing away with nervous weakness the mental forebodings are ten times worse than the most severe puin. There ismoletup to the mental suffering day or night. Sleep is almost impossible, and _under such a strain men are scarcely responsibie for what they do. For years the writer rolled and | tossed on the troubled sea of sexual weakness until it was a question whether he had not better take a dose of poison and thus end all his throubles. ~But providential inspiration came to his aid 1 the shape of a combination of medicines that not only completely restored the general health, but enlarged his weak, emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and | be now declares that any man who will take | the trouble to send his nnme and _address may have the method of this wonderful treatment iree. Now, when I say free I mean absolutely wizhout cost, because I want every weakened man to get the benefit of my experience. Tam not a philaninropist, nor do I rose as an enthusiest, but there are thousands of men suffering the mental tortures of weakened manhood who would be enred at once could they but get such a remedy as the one thas cured me. Do not try to study out how I can afford to pay the few postage-stamps necessary | to mail the infermation, but send for it ana | learn that there are a few things on earih that, although they cost nothing to get, are worth a fortune to some men and mean & life- time of happiness to mostof us. Write to Thomas Slater, box 2283, Kalamasoo, Mich., and the information will be mailed in & plain sealed envelope. OCEAN TRAVEL.
