Interesting Sermon Before the Cal- varian Society by Rev. T. A. Caraher. “Human Cruelty” was the subject of an interesting and instructive address dellv- ered vesterday afternoon by Rev. T. Caraher before the Calvarian soclety. Tne theme was drawn from the Biblical text, “Then, therefore, Pilate took Jesus and scourged him, and the soldiers, making a crown of thorns, put it on his head. The speaker emphasized the idea of the cruelty of the generation of to-day toward the Redeemer. Every thought, he said, should be of Him in preference to the world. Worldly ambitions should always be subjected fo that extent that should think of God not only in the hour of adv: ¢, but in the hour of prosperity. Our s should be mastered and a love and practice of virtue made a sub- stitute for the gratification of passions. At the Cathedral in the evening the mis- sion under the direction of the Redemp- torist Fathers was concluded impressive- ly with the administration of a Papal blessing to all those of the congregation who had faithfully kept it. —_— e e—— CHANGES IN RELIGION.

Major Coffin's baggage Is about the most valuable that any officer has car- ried out to the front from this port. It is worth something like § ,000, and con- sts of gold and silver coin. The major is a paymaster, and with the exception of $15,000 he will leave with the soldiers at Honolulu he will distribute all the mill- | ion and a half among the troops in the Philippines. Major Coffin was an officer in the Tw third Ohio Infantry dur- ing the Civil War, a lieutenant in Captain William McKinley's company. He re- entered the service at the first call to arms of his old commander and has re- | turned rom Cuba to g0 to distant Ma- ila. The transport Puebla arrived in this port early yesterday morning, thirty da. from Maniia, including a stay of six days at Nagasakl, Japan. She brought as pas- | sengers a number of invalid soldiers, six | sailors from the cruiser Boston, en route home for discharge, and two volunteer army officers, Lieutenants Goodale and Wadley, the latter a resident of Los Al geles. Miss West, a Red Cross nurse, was also a passenger on the Pueblo. | The only incident of note which trans- | pired on the run across the Pacific was | the horrible suicide of Chief Steward John McKenna at sea a few days out from | Nagasaki. He went on a spree in_the | | Japanese port, the wind-up of a long | drinking bout in Manila, which resulted in an attack of delirium tremens. By or- | ders of Captain H. C. Thomas, the man | | was placed under restraint in_ his room | |and attended by Surgeon George H. | | Strowbridge, the ship’s surgeon. He asked | | to have his curtains drawn that his room | | might be darkened, and a few hours af- | terward the attendant saw blood issuing | from under his door. When the door was | opened McKenna was discovered stabbing | himself in a savage manner in the throat | with a corkscrew. He had punctured his larynx and windpipe six or seven times. When the instrument was wrencned from him he tried to tear the wounds with his | fingers, and was with difficulty prevented | | from completing his self-destruction with | his naked hands. He died the next day, February 20, and was buried at sea on the | 224. McKenpa was about 40 years old and n the Pacific Coast steamship service. The Emebla had rather more than her share offcrazy people on board during her trip. James Jameson, a sailor, belonging | to the steamer, became crazy and had to be kept in irons. He was violent at times and will be examined by the Lunacy Com- mission. Another man, a passenger, nam- ed Wilson, drank himself into a demented state at Nagasaki and was a general | nuisance for a portion of the time. The Puebla will probably “be returned to | Manila with a load of soldiers and muni- tions of war. The battleship Towa in popularity bids falr to rival the Oregon In this port.

Twentieth An;\ll.]. apcning of .the Favorite Pleasure Resort. Captain L. Siebe, proprietor of Shell Mound Park, opened’ the well-known pleasure resort yesterday for the present season of 1899. It was the twentieth an- niversary of these events, for the captain has spent a large part of his life in the same place, endeavoring to please the public. During the past week or more he has sent to the officers of the many charitable and fraternal organizations of this city and Oakland upward of 4000 tickets of admission and the response was | failed to hold “high gun.” The days of lution, and not revolution. conclave and council, by which sweeping changes were made, have passed. The changes which are now wrought are due to natural development of life in the heart of the church, and not by art or artifice. These minor innovations are un- noticed at the time, but their accumula- tlon makes a great change.” FEUDNER AND NORMAN OPENING OF THE CALIFORNIA WING CLUB SHOOT. The Contest for Golden Trophies Will Be Decided on the First Sunday in September. Members of the California Wing Shoot- ing Club swung into line at the Olympic Gun Club grounds yesterday and opened the battle for honor, gold and golden trophies. The cracks of this crack club loaded their weapons, donned -un shades | for the interesting contest and ‘he game opened. Jack Fanning, who has made Lnown to | all the sporting world the existence of the Olympic Gun Club, was first to face the traps. The trap lifted and this expert had slain the first bird of the contest. Fanning shot at thirty-one yards, a handicap of three yards ever him being enjoyed by his opponents, but he would not have it otherwise. In Eastern and international contests Fanning takes the thirty-one-yard mark, and much shooting A | e R O TR | Laughlin; last in the morning, Philo Jacot at a lesser distance might result in con-| fusing his calculations. So he stayed at the farther mark. C. A, Haight, at twenty-eight yards, as were all other con- testants, was second at the traps. From Haight down the line-up stood: L. D. Owens, C. F. Grant, F. Vernon, H. Ver- non, A. Rose, A. M. Shields, J. J. Sweeney, C. C. Nauman, W. H. Williamson, H. F. Wagner, I. R. D. Grubb, J. Kullman and Otto Feudner. In this aggregation of experts Fanning fell behind, but his records, estabiished n past matches, was sufficient to call orth various explanations as to how he Fanning, out £ 12 birds got 10, using a second on_$ occasions.

Feudner and Nauman, it will be seen, held “high guns.” each killing his alloted number. To win a trophy, three of which are hung up as Incentives 'to good marks- manship, “high guns” must be held once a month, or rather a majority of months between now and September, on the first fi‘ulradfly of which the final shoot will be eld.

A large representation of the San Fran- cisco Typographical Union were at the wharf yesterday to bid farewell to mem- bers of the union who departed on the Valencia to take charge of Government printing at Manila. The cablegram re- questing that printers be sent was re- celved only a couple of days ago, but the matter was handled so promptly by Colonel Long that the boys were on board, bag and bagsage, ready to com- mence the trip yesterday. The colonel ex- erted every effort in their behalf and pre- sented himself at the wharf, might attend personally to things per- taining to their comfort and convenience. The union appreclated his kind work and tendered him warm words of thanks. The men who sailed were: D. H. Shahan, §. Behan, T. M. Butler, John H.

Three prizes of $10, $6 and $4 were offered for the most tickets shot. Each ticket entitled the marks- man to two shots, making a possible 50. From carly in the morning the competi- tlon was keen, and until the targets closed at 5:30 p. m. the best riflemen were striving for the possible. As a fact the best shooting was done late in the afternoon on account of the excessive light during the morning and mid-day. There was but little wind and the gauges were set on center nearly all the time.
