THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, DECEMBER 5, 189 THE CHAMPIONS WHITEWASHED BY WATSONVILLE It Was the First This Season. LANGE AND MERTES AS STARS THEY DO SOME VERY CLEVER WORK. One of the Prettiest Exhibitions the National Game Ever Put Up in a San Francisco Ball Ground. of By Joe Corbett. The great Gilt Bdge collection has played many games of ball this season. Of this number the majority have been victories. But of all the setbacks recelved at the hands of opposing teams none was more complete in every par- ticular than that of yesterday, when the | onvil , the tail-enders in the cham- pionship race, shut them out without the semblance of a run, the score at the end being 13 to 0. The defeat was one in which no questions as to possibilities might arise. It was a defeat thorough In the extreme, and it was a defeat over which baseballdom will expatiate for some time | to come. In reviewing the line-up of the two teams, however, it would be well to notice that the Watsonvill other names those of Bill Lange, Sandow Mertes and Chance. The team was there- strong, and to these z and McCarthy, is share of applause.

F. Nichols, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California, the mementoes | encased in the hollow of a massive ‘block | of stone were lowered into position in the foundation of the mew church at Clay street and Van Ness avenue, dedi- cated yesterday afternoon with solemn | and inspiring ceremony in the name of | St. Luke. th_the lowerin| realized the hopes o congregation of St. erecting an edifice to which all of the stone were the ministry and the Luke's Church for could Wi | ook with pride and in which all could ‘worship with a deeper sense of religious fervor. The erection of this projected £tructure means much to the community, as it marks a decided step onward of the Episcopalian faith. It is the outgrowth of an insignificant mission, founded thirty- two years ago at a time when San Fran cisco was just evolving from an uncertain camp (founded by gold hunters) into a great metropolis. The ceremony of laying the stone was participated in by representative clergy- men from all the Episcopalian churches throughout the city and adjoining towns. It was conducted under the personal di- rection of the Right Reverend V. F. Nichols, the representative head of the Efplsc‘ops.lmn church in the diocese of Cal- ifornia. On him devolved the honor and the dutg of sealing the sacred relics in their toml of stone. Immediately before the massive N} Q\ ) \U block was lowered into position in the foundation an interesting service was conducted. The choir, consisting of thir- ty or forty young boys, the clergymen of t{\e various churches and a number of specially selected singers, assembled in the old church on the opposite corner, THE CORNERSTONE OF S THIEUKE S and, at the appointed time, led by the of- flciating Bishops, issued forth from the old wooden structure, chanting the sacred hymns of the church. As the little pro- cession, robed in white surplices, passed through the portals of the old build- ing and neared the site of the.pew, the surging mass of humanity surround- ing and obstructing its course, gave way before the advancing, uplifted cross. Immediately to the right of the building where the ceremony of laying the stone was to be conducted, and running parallel with the front wall, was erected a gallery for the accommodation of the members of the choir and the assisting clergymen. After a preumlnnr\r service the Bishop descended the stalrs leading to the north- east corner of the foundation, where the stone was to be sealed, and after pro- nouncing the sacred words dictated b custom and the church, the mammot! block of stone slowly descended to its allotted position. As it went down those assembled around it either doffed their hats or bowed their heads. After the huge block had been struck three times in accordance with custom by the Bishop, a silver trowel was handed 'him and the stone was securely sealed into position. Upon the conclusion of the ceremo, addresses were delivered lll,ly Sidney M. Smith, the Rev. W. H, oreland = and Bishop Nichols. The ceremony was con- cluded with a prayer for the success of the construction, the adornment and en- tire completion of the bullding and the efforts of the new pastor elected to fill the position recently made vacant by_the election of Rev. W. H. Moreland as Mis- slonary Bishop of the northern diocese of the State. H.

A New Pacific Coast Champion Comes Out With a General Challenge.

The young challenger is a splendid specimen of the native athlete and has confldence in his ability to best the oldest and most scientific player on the coast. The third of the series of the tourna- ment plays was concluded yesterday at Ryan’s, in_which Colonel J. R. Bockman and E. McDonough of the Ariels defeated Dr. W. H. Siebrest and D. J.

Shepard of Olivet Congregational Church, corner of Seventeenth and Noe streets in this city, who recently began suit against the directors of that Institution: To the Bditor of The Call: During 1897 the pastor was criticized for being wonderfully pa- tient and he held the church to no fixed sal- ary and helped them pay street assessments of about $700; also to pay delinquent taxes and various small debts. The church is in debt to three pastors, and the present sult is brought because of failure since January, 1898, to pay the lowest living salary which was pledged by both directors and church, $65 per month, to the present pastor, that he might meet his expenses, while paying past debks of the church, contracted before he came. The church of 113 members is -confessedly able to pay this and the suit is brought, not against the faithful treasurer of the corpora- tion or against any loyal members or directors, but only through them as officers of the cor- poration, who are expected to require delin- quent members to do their part with pastor and loyal members to support the church. At the beginning of the present year the pas- tor tendered his resignation, feeling that he ad made all the sacrifice that was good for the inexcusable delinquents, and consented to withdraw it only upon the unatimous vote of the church and directors and also upon a con- tract to pay $65 per month in the future, just two-thirds of the salary of the two former pastors, H SHEPARD. o — HOTEL ARRIVALS.
