OAKLAND, Oct. 20.—TFor many years the growers of Alameda County have en- joved the accommodation afforded by the juthern Pacific Company of having their returned fruit and vegetable boxes \rried free. The corporation, however, issued an order a few days ago to the ef- fect that tariff will hereafter be collected on returned empties. The charge Is to be 15 per cent of the rate to San which is 7 cents per hundred pounds. —e———— Robbed While Asleep.

B. Fay Mills’ Change of Fron was the topic of Rev. Dr. E! R. discourse to-night at the Rirst Church, and at the outset Dr. Dille us- serted that he proposed not to discuss Rev. Mr. Mills in a controversial spirit. “I take you to witness,” sald Dr. Dille, “that it is my practice in my preaching to deal with ‘isms’ and not with ‘ists’; with principles and not with persons.” He then reviewed some of the utter; of the noted Unitarian divine lately Boston, touching briefly upon Mills' es gellcal work here back in 1892, at which time Rev. Mr. Mills had been invited by the clergy of the evangelical churclies to conduct services, and the quent erection of the Mills Tabernacle at a great expense. “*After Mr. Mills ieft Dr. Dille, “‘he continued work for a while, but g & here,” continued his’ evangeiistic lually withdrew from it and began preaching upon so- clological, political and other secular themes, avowing conception of the church had then brc still eating their br dentials. om _that largely diatribe soclal” order evangelical church. boldly and repudiated principles of orthodo self a liberal.

The edi- fice was crowded in the morning to hear Bishop Moreland took his text from Acts, xvils. “They brought the sick Into the streets on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by, might overshadow some of them.” The speaker described the cir- cumstances of the story, St. Peter, full of the spirit of Christ, going among the sick and on whomsoever his shadow fell, he healed. He said: cery one has a shadow which is in- sep;lrab?e from him.

Ll Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Oct. 29. Mrs. C. E. Campbell, widow of the late Judge Campbell of San Francisco, created | a mild sensation here this afternoon by reporting to the police and Sheriff that her life was in danger and demanding that Joe, a Portuguese whose other name is said to be Fenera, who has been occu- pying the barn in the rear of the Camp- beil premises, corner of Wheeler street and Ashby avenue, Berkeley, be arrested for insanity. “The man declares that spirits have | told him he is to marry me,” id Mrs. | Campbell at the County Jail.

They found Fenera in the barn and they say he offered no resistance when told of the import of their mission, but declared he was certainly as sane as anybody and| that he had had no trouble with Mrs. Campbell.

Garrett delivered last night at St. Luke’s Church an interesting his- torical sermon on the subject of Father Damien and his work in the leper settle- ment on the island of Molokai, in the Hawaiian group. He told the story of the early life and training of the noble priest and of his final determination to make the leper settlement the scene of his life work. The speaker described the settle- ‘ment and told of the many years of toil of Father Damien. He said in part: After living for ten years with the lepers, Father Damien began to suspect that he had contracted the loathsome disease. ‘The doctors at first_assured him that such was hot the case, but finally were obliged to confess the truth. Three weeks before his death, the disease Increased terribly on his face and hands So ended this noble lfe.

Detective Ed Gibson Returns From Placer County Without His Prisoner. A little more than a week ago pretty Sun You fled from the protection of Loo Son, a Chinese merchant and a member of the Six Companies. It is intimated that she was not alone in her flight, but that she was accompanied by a young Chinese gallant, who had supplanted the wealthy merchant in her affections. Loo on did not propose to be trifled with in this manner, however, without an effort to get even. Besides, Sun You carried away with her several valuable dresses and some costly Jjewelry, which he claimed belonged to him. Consequently Loo Son procecded to swear to a com- plaint charging Sun You with grand lar- A warrant for her arrest was is- sed in the hands of Detec- uve Ed Gibson. Gibson located the Chinese beauty in Auburn, Placer County, and left here last Thursday for the purpose of taking her into custody. The arrest was made all right, but the girl was among fricnds and within a few hours she was again at lib- orty on an order of discharge signed by Jm{ge Wells of Placer County. Gibson returned to San Francisco last evening with the Judge's order in lieu of the prisomer, Judge Graham _counter- signed the order, and now evolve some other scheme to get even with the betrayer of his love and confi- dence.

Bell says that in speaking of these vessels Mr. Cramp told him that they were the equal of any ships of their class now afloat and vasty superior_to anything now on the waters of the Pa- cific Ocean. ‘lhey are large, roomy, comfortable. and combine every modern device for safety, with engines capabie of driving them at a speed fully two knots faster than any steamer now run- ning out of San Francisco.

A farce comedy with a good plot is one of the rarest literary achievements of the | century, and it becomes a source of thor- ough enjoyment when one is lucky enough 1o discover such a thing on the horizon | of the modern stage. Such a dramatic visitor made its appearance at the Cali- fornia Theater last evening, which in honor of this auspicious occasion acked from parquet to.gallery. “‘Brown's | n Town” is the cleverest play that has struck_thig town for a long, while, and Mark E. Swan, its author, deserves to be congratulated upon this child of his brain. The comedy turns itself around a young wedded couple, who in their endeavor to keep their marriage from the husband's father entangle themselves in a net of fibs which causes a series of situations the humor of which is extremely healthy. “The beauty of the play is that it is snappy and the audience meets with surprises until the curtain drops after the last act. | The jokes are all clever and new. The f\crformers are particularly bright. Miss | {nowlton is very chic, Jessie May Hall is a very captivaling soubrette and sings exceedingly well and Fanny Midgely im- personates a_ colored cook most delight- fully. Equally successful is the German character work of Monica Lee. the gentlemen Charles Horn does did character work as the bewildered father. The play made a decided hit and no doubt draw large houses.
