TYRRELL ' MAY LOCATE HERE West End Christian Chureh After a Dis- tinguished St. Louis Divine. g alC LRSI & LOL D LK HE West End Christian Church of San Francisco and the First Christian Church of Chicago are engaged in a friendly but spirited rivalry. Both are anxious for Rev. F. G. Tyrrell, at present pastor of the Central Christian Church of St. Louis, to fill their pulpits, with the chances of each about even. Rev. Mr. Tyrrell is a young man, a native of California and a graduate of the University of California, who start- ed out to practice law, but decided to follow in the footsteps of his father and preach the gospel. In the nine vears he has been pastor of the St. Louis church Rev. Mr. Tyr- rell-gathered together a big congre- gation and built up a reputation as an eloquent pulpit orator, which re- sulted in his receiving a call from Chicago as soon as his intention to resign his pastorate became known in the Windy City. Rev. Mr. Tyr- rell’s reason for severing his connec- tion with the Central Church is his desire to work in other fields offer- ing larger opportunities. He belleves it is not well either for the church or pastor for the latter to remain long in one pulpit. While the West End Church has not extended a formal call to the St. Louis divine, the board of trustees is anxious to secure him as pastor to succeed the Rev. Dr. Gardiner, who resigned last September on account of ill heaith and is now in Honolulu. The trustees fear that the church may not be able to offer sufficient inducements to a man whose reputa- tion is such that he can practically name his own price, but Mr. Tyrrell is coming to San Francisco during summer and will hold a protracted meeting under the auspices of the church. months in California attending a He will spend several reunion of the Tyrrell family at Ferndale and resting from his la- bors. His resignation of his present pastorate takes effect about the Ist of June. It is believed that Mr. Tyr- rell prefers the Pacific Coast to the East, and from the tone of his let- ters to the trustees of the West End Church the latter are hopeful that they will be able to meet his terms. They have been in correspondence with him for several months in re- gard to his proposition to hold a protracted meeting in this city in August, but it was not known until a day or two ago that he had re- ceived a call from Chicago. Upon receipt of that information the trustees immediately wrote to Mr. Tyrrell requesting him not to accept the call until he heard from them further. Mr. Tyrrell Is at present in Chicago. The Rev. Mark Willlams is tem- porarily occupying the pulpit, Ofiiiiii"ii'9)’?0’."’.99’*’““”".VFi".?i'Ui’;'itiri‘,v’)bf'iiliiii’i0”'99"’””"””’i'i‘i‘l‘".’i"""””"i”"'ii”" THE SCOTCHMAN A A HUMORIST AND A5 A LOVER Second of lan Mac- laren’s Lectures.
