It consists primariy of very large tracts of land in various coanties in Central Cali- fornia, and secondarily of mining inter- ests, chiefly acquired during very recent years. Two years ago Mr. Carr sold bis inter- ests in the vast Hugzin and Carr domain 1n Kern County, from which his business THE LATE WILLIAM B. CARR.

This lamp be used as usual that night. According to the account given, Mrs. Carr was up at about 7 o’clock yesterday morning and noticed a smell of yas. She immediately knocked loudly at her hus- band’s door, which it was his habit to lock, and receiving no reoly quickly opened a window to the room in great elarm. In a few moments other members of the family were on hand and the room entered as soon as the exit of the gas made it possibie. Mr. Carr was lying in the bed insensible and in the position of sleeping. Efforts to arouse him made it apparent that death had come, though ihe body was still warm. The family phvsician, Dr. George H. Palmer, and Dr. C. B. Brigham, who lives close by, were summoned and soon came. Every effort 1o restore life was truitless and at 8:30 A M. the Morgue was notified of the deaih. The room gave clear évidence of what had occurred. Atone side of the room was a bureau containing many of Mr. Carr’s business papers and it was a wall gas jet near it which had been lef: open.

In this City the home at Broadway and Filimore street occupied a yearagoand the old Carr home out on San Jose avenue are the only real properties. Mr. Carralwaysdaboled in minesand after the sale of his Kern County interests he inve-ted in them more largely. The most important now are the Glover in Amador County and the Good Hope in Plumas County, the former a quartzand the latter a gravel mine. In recent years his son, George G.

The other was the stupendous scheme of the acquire- ment, 1rrigation and settlement of a princely domain of 400,000 acres of arid yalley in Kern County, of which success- fal scheme he was the originator and the guiding genius, His birth occurred in 1830, in Clark miles from Louisville, Ky., across the river. His fatuer was a contractor and builder in that city, and the deceased grew up in that business. After the panic of 1837 there was a remcval to Cincinnati. In 1853, some time after the death of his fatber, he abandoned Cincinnatiand came to California. He mined for a while at Indian Creek, north of Marysville, in EI Dorado County and at Michigan bar, and then went into business as a contractor and butlder at Sacramento in partnership with Stephen Winans, William Alien and R. C. Redd. The firm later became Winans & Carr, and after 1860, when Winans died, Carr carried on the business alone. Mr. Carr built many of the important structures of that city, and amony his con- | tracts was one on the foundation of the capitol building. After the floods of 1862.63, he and William Turton built the levees about Sacramento. During his Sacramento career he took an active interest 1n politics. In January, 1564, he was married oy Thomas Starr King to Miss Lizz.e Macy of this City, a | uescendant of one ol the orizinal founders | of the Nantucket colony, and later in that year he located in San Francisco. lie became interested in the Western Pucific Railroad, and be and Charles Mec- Laughlin buiit thirty miles of it. His interest was sold to the Central Pacific Company, and he was for a time a large owner of the stock oi that company. Late in the sixties he had aquired con- siderable wealth by his industry, shrewd- ness, force of character and his readiness and ‘apility to manage big enterprises. There was boldness and a spirit of enter- prise in his nature. He was not a man of culture, but he wasa man of more than ordinary intellectual power and native ability. He added to this care of his character, reputation and physical health. 1. was at this period of hiscareer, about 1867, tbat he assumed a commanding | viace in California Republican politics. It was through his domisance of the party machine that George C. Gorham was nominated for Governor, to be defeated by Haight. Carr continued at the party helm. Gorham went to Washington, and later became secretary of the Senate. A. A. Sargent, then a Congressman and a friend of Garr’s, aspired to the Senator- ship, and the memorable battle over Sar- gent followed. Carr backed Sargent with all his political resources and conducted his fizht in a masterful way, with George C. Gorham as one of his associates. Sar- gent triumphed, and owed his election mainly to the political leader, William B. Carr. Added to Sargent and Gorhdm was Congressman Page of Alameda to uphold Carr’s power. It was thus that through alarge por- tion of Grant’s administration Carr dic- tated the apportionment of Federal patron- age in California. He never concerned himself with local politics, and early in the eighties he whoily retired from the political field and never thereafter re- #n ered it, often express ng a piece of wis- dom to the effect that a man was a fool to dabble in politics. Themen of hisday who survive express the estimate that he was & master as an organizer of men. A part of his success was due to a facuity of making friends and popularity among them. Before ne left politics he turned to Kern County and its rich expanse of arid valley lands.” There had been an opening to set- tlement of Government lands there dur- ing Sargent's Senaiorship and the rail- road owned much of the domain he cov- eted. It was in 1872 that he began the ac- quirement of great tracts of this land, and he early conceived a great plan of irriga- tion and settiements During the seventies J. B. Haggin bought large hoidings t ere also, but Carr proceeded independently for many years. In 1880 he associated bis interests with those of J. B. Haggin, and 1891 Carr, Huggin and Lloyd Tevis formed, the Kern Couiity Land Com&;my and the Kern County Canal and Water Company. These inter- ests extended the irrigation system al- ready greatly developed mainly by Carr, and began more extensive efforts at colo- nization and development. In 1895 Carr's interests were bought by Haggin and Tevis. : This irrigation system to which the de- ceased devoted s0 many years of his hfe, comprising over 300 miles of ditches and canals leading from Kern River, one ca- nal, the Calloway, being 320 miles ion. 120 feet wide at the top and 80 feet wide at the bottom. ‘The whole enterprise is # stupendous one and bas made a great section of the upper end of the San Joaquin Valley blos- som as the rose. The Haggin and:Carr holdings comprised 400,000 acres, and the management of the enterprise demanded men of great ability, Last year as an experiment Mr. Carr bought $5000 worth oif Canaigre roots in Mexico and planted them on land in Kings County. This and the budding sugar-beet enterprise mentioned were two of the latest enterprises which interested this active and ready man. He did a large work, commanded the respect of all, and his death will cause many regrets. REYNA BARRIOS WILL NOT ACCEPT He Is Not a Candidate for the Presidency of Guatemala.

M, P, BOYNTON HAS RESIGNED He Has Followed the Ex- ample of Rev. J. George Gibson. The First Baptist Church Loses| an Excellent Leader. Friction Betw2en the Eder and Youngir Memb rs Caused the Trouble. Rev. Dr. M. P. Boynton of the First Baptist Chnrch has resigned. His resig- nation came somewhat as a surprise to many of his congregation, for Dr. Boyn- ton is a great favorite among his people. Directly after the morning’s service the pastor said he had a few remarks to make and then proceeded to read the following letter of resignation: To the members of the First Baptist Church of San Francisco—MY DEAR PEOPLE: On the 1st of next July three years of service in your idst will be atan end. During this time I enjoyed my labors with you as I have enjoyed 1o other labor in my life. I thank you heartily for all the kindness you have shown and the co-operation you have given me while sustaining with you the relation of an assistant, acting and fuil pastor. Of late I have come to feel that it may be for the best good of Christ’s kingdom as repre- sented by our church, for me 10 sever my rela- tious as vastor, which I hereby do, to take effect the 1st of August, 1897. I earnestly hope that you will give this resignation your atientiou at your earlicst convenience and you will pardon me if Isay that I must insist upon its acceptance. May the choicest blessingof our Heavenly Father rest upon you in all your labors, unii- - ing all hearts as one in Jesus Christ, that the world may know we are his disciples. Thank- ing you again and with a heart overflowing with love, 1 am very sincerely your pastor, M. P. BOYNTON. This was Dr. Boynton’s first pastorate after graduating from the seminary. For eight months he was assistant pastcr, ten months acting pastor, and for one year and a half fuil pastor. When seen yesterday afternoon he had nothing to say, save that the First Church was composed ' of “‘a lovely congregation, who had all been extremely kina’’ to him. There is a slight friction between the younger and older members of the church, and when Dr. Boynton was elected pastor it was against the wishes of the older members, who wanted Dr. Cameron of Boston for this place, but the majority ruled, and so the young people had their way. Ever since there has been a certain amount of dissatisfaction in the church and while the older folks could not fird a single tlaw in Dr. Boynton, who has cer- tainly been s most exemplary pastor in every way, they have evidently felt ag- grieved in baving been passed over. But the young pastor has resizned and the fact remains there is more of mourning than of rejoicing over his resignatiou. LOOKING FOR STARS. Gustav Walter Has Left on His An- nual Trip to Europe. Gustav Walter, the director-general of the Orpheum circuit, left yesterday after- noon for Europe, where he 1s going for the purpose of arranging booking agencies in London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna, the great vaudeviile centers of Europe. On his journey East he will visit the agencies in Chicsgo and New York, and on the 27th he will sail for Europe on the Furst Bismarck. He will be absent three or four months. It is the intention of the Orpheumiman- agement to open a house 1n Poriland, Ore- gon, and there is a probability that more theaters will be added to the circuit in the future. High-salaried artists who would hesitate about accepting an_engagement at such & great distance will now be assured of longer engagements, and the San Fran- cisco public will, therefote, be benefited. e A DOUBLE OELEBRATION. St. Paul’s Luotheran Church Observes Two Ann.versaries. A double anniversary took place at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church yesterday morn- ing — the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of St. Paul’s in _this City, and the fiftieth of the Synod of Missouri. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers, bunting and evergreens. A9 o’ciock 500 children belonging to the Sunday-school assembled in the schoolrooms and marched in a procession through the church. When the children were seated Pastor Buehler addressed them. At10:30 the actual services began. After an organ prelude and singing by the congregation, Mr. Buehler preached a sermon, and the Sundav services were over. To-day tne Ladies’ Aid Society will hold socials, both afternoon and evening. i “Cupid’’ Danforth Hurt. F. R. Danforth, the Deputy County Clerk who has acquired fame as “Cupid” Danforth at the marriage license counter, met with a serious accident yesterday. He was riding homeward on & Clay-street car and as it swang around the curve into Larkin street he was thrown from the car, his head siriking on apaving stone.
