Glen Mec- ns of the First Cnristian Church has decided to resign to-morrow, but he has made a statement concerning Rev, Edwards Davis of the Central Christian Church that is certainly unique 2s coming from a minister. reply no less original. “There is no possibilily on God's earth of our bringing about a union between the two churches,” said Rev. Mr. McWilliams. “The First Church will never accept Rev. Edwards Davis forits pastor. Heis not sincere, and has nct had sufficient experi- ence to qualify him to be pastor of a large church. He shoula go off somewhere for about ten vears, get married and profit by its atterdant experience, study hard, and then I think he would make a vood pastor. “He is brainy and quick anc¢ a gooa platform :peaker, but ne is not in any sense a pastor. He does not preach reli- gion, but oniy a popular adaptation of religious sentiment. “He 1s not a man tovisitadying 1 and offer words of consolstion at suu. a time. A pastor should be able to weep when his flock weeps and laugh when they lough. Mr. Davis can laugh, but ne cannot weep. His is the religion of the world, but not of Christ. Heis well qualified to deal with that class ot Chris- tans who wear low-necked dresses and who court sensation. Davis is all right in the head. I must give the devil his due—not that Mr. Davis is a devil—and must say that he is brilliant, he is a genius, and on either side of this con- tinent his fame has gone out, but—I wiil say 0o more; it would not become me to crticize a brother pastor.’’ “l1 am amazed that Rev. McWilliams allowed ‘evil communications to corrupt good manners,’ " said Rev. Edwards Davis to-night. *‘I had not known until to-day that he was not my friena, Before, and since the union agitation he had expressed his esteem for me enthusiastically. 1 suppose the brevity of his pastorate is suggestive of the cause of his envious im- bitterment. I regret that he made no at- tempt to see me and secure a manly understanding, rather than drag Lis per- sonal disappointment into the press. It is very timely that I am to speak to-mor- row night on ‘The Sting of the Kangless Tongue.’ “Rev. Mr. McWilliams need not be con- cerned about my identification with the church of which until recently he has been pastor. Iam perfectly satisfied with my present charge. As for his insinua- tion that I have ‘not sufficient exp-rience to be pastor of a large church,’ I merely stale that in thres years my congregation has grown from fifty to more than the membership of the First Church. As to his advice that I leave Oakland and spend ten years in study, I wiil say that after tweuty years' residence here I am noi going to leave life-long friends because of the advice of an impulsive enemy. Not- withstanding his advice that I should marry, (hat cannot be until I shajl have secured the young lady’s and my own consent. **‘Whetber I was ever the idol of my church, or not, I hope I am not now. ldolatry is not Christianity.

Oummings Has Not Yet Been Advised Why She Was Slighted. 0ArLAND OfficE BAN FRaNcisco CaLr,) 908 Broad way, Aug. 28. § For two days a bridegroom-elect has been missing and no trace of him has been seen 1n this eity,although it is believed he is still with his ship :in San Francisco, Everything was ready for the ceremony last Tuesday evening, minister was present, guests were on hand, house was decorated and the bride was waiting for the groom. She is waiting yet. Two weeks ago invitations were sent out for the wedding of Miss E. H. Cum- mings and G. B. Adair at the beantiful home of Colonel and Mrs. Adams on New- ton avenue, East Oakiand, on Thursday evening, August 26. The family of the bride is well known, and they are prominent members of the Eighth-avenae Metnodist Church, and it was to be a fashionable event. Miss Cum- mings is a handsome young lady, and at- tired in her beautiful dress made a very pl’fillg bride. G. B. Adair is the second officer of the ship Largiemore, and has been acquainted wits Miss Cummings for several years, although during that time he has been mostly at sea and bas seen little of his sweetheart. TrLe ehgagement was an- nounced about a year and a half ago, and the weidinz was looked forward to for many weeks, and has been the social topic of society on the other side of the lake. Last Monday Mr. Adair was in Oakland and made the final arrangements for the wedding. Everything was to be in readi- ness for Tnursday evening at 8 o’clock. The ceremony was to be performed by Rev. Dr. R. F. Coyle of the First Presby. terian Church and the young couple were to leave after the wedding for San Fran- cisco. The bride was supplied with a very elegant trousseau, muc. of which was the handiwork of her aunt, Mrs. Adams, and at the appointed hour she was daintily attired by her friends and was in readi- ness in her boudoir. Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Coyle arrived. and the parlors were filled with friends, Eight o’clock came, and the groom did not ear. As the time passed the bride’s amily became anxious, but could do nothing, as there was no means of reach- ing Mr. Ad AL 9 o'clock the party commenced to break up, The bride re- mained in her chamber, and was spared the pain of her friends seeing her bitter disappointment. ‘When it was seen that the groom was not coming Dr. Coyle said a few reassur- ing words and left. The guests departed, leaving the ban- quet untouched and the broker -nearted bride has as yet received no exp anaion, The affair is a mystery which only Mr. Adair can clear np. It is believed his ves- sel is still in Mission Bay. A search of the marriage-licgnse record ior several weeks back shows that no license has been issued to any one named Adair, and th s adds to the complication. Mr. Adair enjoys a very high reputation and comes of a good Scoteh family, Sporting Life Gavg Trial Set.

PROFIBITIONISTS BURY HATCHETS State Central Committee Sends Out a Plain-Worded Document. The Next State Convention Will Be Held in Fresno Next June. Only One Platform Will Have the Sanc- tion of the Execuntive Com- mittee. OARLAND OFfFICE SaN FRANCISCO CALL.} 908 Broadway, Aug. 28. The Prohibitionists of the State have decided to bury tbe hatchet and weork together in barmony for the campaign of 1898. This decision of the ‘‘broad-gauge’’ and “narrow-gauge” Prohibitionists was made known by the publication of the first edition of the Pacitic Pronibitionist. This organ is entirely independent of any other, and “it wiil be published in the in- terests of union and of a large vote for the righteous cause of prohibition at our State election "98," It states that no bitterness will be al- lowed in its columns. There will be no unwise explanations and no needless dis- cussion of the past. Tne State Central Committee has passed aud issued the foliowing resolution: WHEREAS, The largest possible vote for the Prohivition State ticket in 1898 is an object worthy of the earnest labor of every mau op- posed to the beverage liquor traffic; ve it Resolved, (1) That in the appointmeut of delegaies to the mext Prohibiuou State Con- | vention the vote for Lavering and the vote 1or B:ntley be counted as one. (2) That the test of membership in all pre- limindry conveotions for the election of dele- gates to the said State Convention be, “*Will you support the Prohibition party in the next campaign?” (3) That the only body having authority to formulate a platiorm for the Prohibition party of Califorpia is the State Conveniion of said party, and while every one has a right to say what in his opinioy this platiorm ought to be, noone has a right to say what this plat- {form must be. (4) That the Liberty party of this State, havingexpressed threcugh their committee a desire 1o unite with us in the tampaign of 1898 for securing the largest possible vote for Prokhibition, we her-by reciprocate this aesire 4nd Invite the said committee 10 elect ten per- sons to act as members of our State Committee in cailiag the next Prohibition State conveu- tion. Our State chairman aud secretary are authorized to add said names to our commit- tee as s00n as they are reported. These shall be rated as additionel committeemen from their several counties. (5) That the secretary be requested to com- muuicate these resoiutions to the chairman and sccretary of the Liberty party. The purport of paragraphs three and four clearly indicates that the S:ate Cen- tral Committee intends to carry out iis programme irrespective of opposition. The next State’convention of the party will bs hela in Fresno about the seconc week of next June, as the Prohibitionists | of ihat city have asked for the gathering. The headquarters of the party have been remcved to Oakland and Professor 8. P. Meads of the natural science depart- ment of the High School and Dr. J. P. McCargar are tire local leaders.

Sprague-Farrell Nuptials. QAKLAND, Can, Aug. 28.—Deputy City Clerk Hollana was surprised to receive a visit from two young people this morning and receivea request for a mar- riage license.

Cal Ewing, who provided them with the necessary parchment. Justice of the Peace Cliit was next called upon, and soon the heart- rending affair was over. ‘The groom is Lawrence Francis Farrell, aged 21 and an attache of the State Insane Asylum at Napa. The bride was Miss Fiorence Sprague of Mayhew station, Sacremento County, 18 yearsof age. They were accompanied by Mrs. M. L.

OAKLAND, Car,, Aug.28.—A mortgsge covering all the proverty aof the East Oak- land Street Railroad Company was plac.d on record this morning. It was given to J. Dalzell Brown by F. M. Smith and F. C. Haven to cover several promissory notes aggregating $36,861 41. This is the amount of the judgment under which the road was sold to the Realtv Syndi- cate Company this week. All of the notes bear 7 per cent interest and are payable one day after date, except two, which pro- vide for monthly instaliments, Itis supposea that Brown is the repre- sentative of some San Francisco banking- bouse that furnished the necessary cash for the Realty Syndicate to meet the judg- ment, and that as soon as they can get in shape these notes willbe taken up.

THE HETHOD OF A GREAT TREATHENT FOR WEAKSENY OF HEN WHICH CURED HIM AFTER EVERY- THING ELSE FAILED, Painful diseases are bad enough, but when a man is slowly wasting away with nervous weankness the mental forebodings are ten times worse than the most severe pain. Thera isnoletup to the mental suffering day or night. Siéep is almost impossible, and under such a strain mer are scarcely responsibie for what they do. For years the writer roiled and tossed on the troubled sea of sexual weakness until it was & question whether he had not better take a dose of poison and thus end all bis throubles. But providential inspiration edme to hisaid in the shape of a combination of medicines that not only completely restored the generai health, but enlarged his weal emaciated parts t» natural size and vigor, an be now declares that any man who will take the trouble to send his name and address may bave the method of this wonderful treatment free. Now, when I say free I mean absolutely wiihout cost, because 1 want every weakened man 10 get the benefit of my experience. Iam nota philantnropist, nor do I poseas an enthusias}, but there are thousands of men the mental tortures of weakened nh ‘who would be eured at once could but get such a remedy as the one that oured me. Do not try to study out how I can the few postage-stamps necessary information, but sead for it ama learn that there are a few things onearth that, although they cost nothing to e . worth & fortune to some men and mea; e- time of happiness to mostof us.
