There is no truth in the statement that Dr. Pardee promised to do all in his power to telp W. R. Davis to obtain the Republican ncumination for Governor. This seatement has been attributed to 'W. 1.

He made no pledges and no promises and is_quite at liberty to act as he pleases. The <tate- rient that he promised to give way to Mr. D .vis is falce.” As Mr. Knickerbocker fs a warm per- eonal anl political friend of Mr. Davis, sshould settle the matter. sTuart W. BooTH.

A New Pastor Comes to the First Christian Church, Dr. 8. J. Oarroll Takes His Farewell of the Eighth-Avenue Con- gregation, OAKLAND OFFICE AN FrANcIsco CALL,] 908 Broadway, Sept. 12, § The thirty-fourth quarterly convention of the Alameda County Christian En- deavor Union was held at Irvingtou to- day. Last night rallies were beld in seven towns, and to-day all unitea in a big gatbering. * President George P. Lowell formally opened the convention, and spoke briefly of the great event—the national conven- tion—that had taken place since the last county convention, and of its significance. Miss Mindora L Berry, who is in charge of the work of the State, spoke on *‘Mis- sionary Extension’’; Rev. T. J. Arnold dealt with ““God’s Greatest Gilt,”” and the music was rendered by the Irvington Seminary Choir, The officers of local unions and local societies held their conferences between the afternoon and evening sessions. To-night the church was packed. W. W. Shier, Rev. J. Durbam, Rev. Calvin C. Herriott and Mrs. Carrie Judd Mont- gomery were the principal speakers. The report of Treasurer F. R. Hull showed that the County Union is in a good condi- tion financially. Miss Ware, Miss Martin and Miss Gra- ham were the soloists. Rev. T. D. Butler from Hollister, the new pastor of ti:e First Christian Church, preached his first sermon this moruing. The coming of the pastor marks the positive close of all attempts to unite the two Christian churches of this city. The union was nearly completed about a month ago, but no agreement could be reacied regarding a pastor, and the First Church, immediaiely on the resignation of Rev. Glen McWilliams, called Rev, Mr. Roberts, and he accepied. A jarge congregation greeted the new pastor bot. morning and evening and his | hearers were very favorably impressed with his preaching. At the Eighth-avenue Methodist Church Rev. 5. J. Carroil preached his farewell ermon Lo & large congrezation. He dealt ith the subject “Have We Conscious Ex- istence Beyond the Grave?”’ Rev. Edwards Davis created somewhat of a sensation to-nizht by his ““Descrip- tion of the Devil.”” Mr. Davis was so re- alisiic and definite that it was not difficuit to connect some of his descripiions with types of men and women very prevalent in this city. WAGNER 10-NIGHT. An Excellent Programme Prepared for This Evening—Professor Healy Writes in Dofense of the Uake Walk. The closing nights of the Mechanics’ Fair are to be marked by a series of bril- liant events, and the German singing soci- | eties from this city and Oakland will fur- nish the music to-night. Professor J. Rieger will lead the singers. On Tuesday night the societies compris- ing the Celtic Union will celebrate “Irish Night.'”” A strong committee with Colonel T. F. Barry as chairman has charge of the arrangements, and an elab- orate programme has been prepared. Pro- fessor J. W, McKenzie will lead a chorus | of 200 voices, and a number of Irish soags will be rendered. Professor Joseph Ke ler and Miss Pearl Hickman will give an exhibition of Irish jig and reel dancing to the music of a fiddler and piper. The Knights of the Red Branch Rifles, beaded by their band, will attend in aniform. Qakland night will be on Wednesday, and the members of the Acme Athletic Club will give an exhibition of tumbling, wrestiing and boxing. The programme of music for Wednes- dav night will be selectea by baliot. Director Healy still persists in_his in- tention to bave a cake walk on Thuislay night, which is down on the fair ca! os “classical night.”” Healy has encaged about ten co ored couples, wiao will bs fed vy the leider of the colored 490, and has secured a num der of valuable prizes. On Friday night Governor Budd and staff will attend, and on Saturday night the fair will close with a grand apotheosis and finale. Piofessor Healy has written aletter in defease of the great cakewalk. Following is tne letter in part: MEcH s' INSTITUTE, SAN FRANCIsCO, Sept. 12, lSO’?.z City Editor Call—DEAR SiR: Much attention has veen called to our fair by the many novel features which the managemant has provided for tne entertainment of the public. The idea has gone abroed that the cake walk was a recent conception. Tais i8 not sir.ctly true. The writer has contemplated a cake walk from the very inception of the fair, and for that purpose, and as chairman of the com- mittee on exaibits, endeavored to have a sus- pended bandstand, so constructed that the exercises could be held Immediutely under it, without any inconvenience to the musicians or hindrance to the spectators. This idea was not sdopted, but the vbj et was sccomplished in another way—by makiug wo stands with a large area between, and leaving room for par- ties marching to pass between both stands be. fore they came to ihe position where the award of the judges is announced. It 18 » mistake to assert that there iz a con- flictin the board. Tuere may be differences of opinfon in regard to detail, but on geveral principles we area unit. The Mechanies’ In- stitute offers no money prize for the succ -ssful contestants. Messr.. Tiilmann & Bende! have donated the prizes, and Bakery has contributed the cake. With these little corrections the reports of the proceed- ings are as near correct as are possible in the nature of things,” Thankfully yours, P. J.

On Account of the Scarcity of Pickers Wages Have Been Increased, ers in Every Line of In- dustry. this year has become a serious problem to the vinevardiste of the State. For the past threedays the employment offices have bzen telegrams and telephone messages asking for grape and fruit pickers, and they find mand for men at present, and fear that they will only be able to secure a very small portion of the number desired. The offices of the agencies were nearly all kept open part of the day yesterday and some of them all day. This was at the urgent request of the fruit-growers, who are becoming anxious for tue safety of their crops. Advertising in the news- papers and by means of circulars has brought a great many applications for work, and all who apply are eagerly snapped up and immediately shipped to the country. Boys of from 14 yea:s of age up are being engaged and are received as thankfu!ly as full-grown men and are persons. With all that can be done to secure suf- ficient workmen, and frantic efforts are crop will be lost. One employment agency has places open for 3¢00 men in Fresuo and Tutare counties alone, while Naps, Sonoma,Yo'o, Santa Clara and Yuba counties are not far | behind. By the scarcity of labor the wages have been increased, und the growers are ready and willing to pay the higher wages, as they are getting better prices.for their crops. Last year for this class of work men were paid $20 a moenth and board; now §la day and board is the regular ment the demand for men is greatly in excess of the supply. Anticipating the excdus of laborers to the fruit-growing belt during the harvest, | application was made to the railroads fora | reduced rate. Tnis was granted, and all | {he roads are carrying workingmen to their new jobs for two-thirds of the regu- | lar fare. | The cause of the scarcity of laborers is | attributea to the wave of prosperity which | has recently struck the country. The re- opening of a number of sawmills as a resnit of the increased duty on lumber has given employment to a surprisingly large quantity of men as has the opening up and extensive improvements of the different railroads. | | the frait-zrowers alone, but industries of nearly every kind are in need of workmen ing them. The Southern Paci the San Joaquin and the Sierra railroads are all advertising for men and are offering _good wages and free trausportation. Contractors and bullders Lere in the City are finding it difficult to get enough artisans to fulfill their contracts. Laborers of all classes are in demanc at increased wages and there is employment of certain kinds for all those who wish it. A prominent fruit-grower made the sweeping statement that there are not enough availaple men harvest the crop. Forty Hours Devotion The forty hours devotion opened at the Holy | Cross Church yesterday morning, —solemn | high mass being well attended. Father J. F. | McGinty acted as celebrant, Rev. McQuaide, | deacon; Rev. G. Ryan, sub-deacon, assisted by Martin Centner of the University of Califor nia.
