Dr. East- | Glenn McWilliams of the First Church was so sore at the proceadings tbat he re- signed and went to a pastorate in some other part of the State. Mr. Davis has received no call, nor does he yet know what he wiildo in the future. He has attained great notorietv and some popularity on account of his radical de- partures from all thatis conventional in the pulpit and the church. He has suc- ceeded in building up the Central Church 1o a great degree, snd was a general favor- ite with the members. 1t is hintea that he may trke to the lecture platiorm, in which line he has met with some success. while the siatement is also quietly whis- pered that his dramatic talent would guarantee for nim a success on_the stage. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Davis had agreed to perform a marriage ceremony in a den of lions in Ban Franzisco, but the publ-cation of the matter created so much unpleasant feeling at his church that he withdrew, giving as his reason that he was not aware at the time the agreement was made it was to be a public ceremony where people paid for admission, and that | it was not to be a genuine but on'y a moex | marriage. No one for a moment dreamed i man was immediately summoned, but on arriving at the bedside he pronounced | the man dead. Deputy Coroner Streizntif was notified, and upon examining the premi-es found no indication of suicide. The wife is posi- tive that death was accidental. | About 9 o'clock l!ast night McShane | came home and retired immediately to| his room. He had evidently read and smoked some time before going to sleep, and in putung out the lights had left both gae jets partly turned on. ‘ Mrs. McShane scouts the idea of suicide, as her husband had on many occasions | condemned self-destruction es the act of a coward. Although h'svrother killed him- self by shooting severai vears ago, he nimself always di-approved of such a | course, and when he read in the papers about suicides, he almost invariably de- nounced that act as unmaniy.

Dutton Will Try and| Solve a Problem of the Last Century. A Card Worth 12 Shillines in the Days When Dollars Were Unknown, For Two Generations It Was Hidden in an Ancient Book on Postry. OAxLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Nov. 20. J. W. Duiton Las an interesting little task on hand whici will necessitate some correspondence with the Federal Govern- ment. A fex days ago while exploring an old book published in 1789, and which has been in his family for several generations, Mr. Datton found a colonial note of the value of twelve shillings. The note isan interesting little thing, and was issued by the authority of the New Jersey Colonial Government in Mareh, 1776, and was one of the last issued prior to the signing of tha Declaration of Independence. He has submitted it to experts, and there is no doubt whatever | as 1o its being genuine. It bears the signatures in writing of three parties whose names it is d fflcult to decipher, more especially as the ink is al- most as yellow as the paper. On the back of it 1sthe emblem of the old New Jersey colonv and in old English let.ers the sig- niticant hint **i0 counterfeit thisis death.” What is interesting to Mr. Dation s the question wheiher any_provision had been made by the Federal Government for the payment of the just debts of the old col- onies, and if so, whether it is j ossible now for him to redeem his certificate. Mr. Dut- | ton is a great student of the science of governments, and declares that altbough colonial note is worth mora than 12 skillings as a relic, he 1s anxious to see in what condition affairs are under the cir- cumstances. His idea is to find out whether the present Government assumed all the responsibiliiies of the old colonial <overnment or if the present State gov- ernmentof New Jersey made a provision | in 1776 or when its State povernment was placed on a stable foundation to redeem the colonial pape i Mr. Dutton’s grandfather was a per- sonal acquaintance of George Wash- ington, and lived 1n Connecticut at the | time of the Revolution. The old buok in which the note was found has been in the family for two generations and is a trea- ise on epic poems and poetry in general, and it was through the rules jor composi- tion laid down in the book that J. W. Datton was erabled to obtain the high standard he now occupies as a poet. When telling the story of his find to- day Mr. Dutton repeated the old tale of | King Geor e putting tne banknote in the peasant’s Bible, and said that if its pres- rce the book were due toa similar cir- | cumstance his venerable ancestor had been padly fooled.
