Distinguished Divine Who Has Held Some of the Most Important Trusts in the Country. Rev. Frederick W. Clampett, the new pastor of Trinity Episcopal Church, ar- rived in the city yesterday afternoon on | the overland and is now staying at the Occidental. The distinguished divine was met across the bay by a delegation consisting of Ves- trymen Colonel J. V. D. Middleton, Major ‘W. L. Hooper, Judge W. E. F. Deal, John Landers and W. E. Dean, which escorted him to his hotel and extended to him the usual courtesies due a stranger within our gates. When seen last night Dr. Clampett said that he had as yet formed no plans nor could he give out anything for publication until he had had an opportunity to meet and consult with his congregation. He Wwas very tired after his long trip across the continent and would not assume the duties of his pastorate until a week from to-day. He will be present, however, a® the congregational convention which is to be held in Trinity Church on Tuesday next. | “Dr. Clampett succeeds Dr. Cook as though Dr. Nansen has been officiating since the latter gentleman left for the East. As soon as Dr. Clam- pett has had time to settle upon a per- manent residence he will send for his wife and family, who are now residing in Bloomington, I1l. Rev. Frederick W. Clampett was born pastor of Trint | of Secotch-Irish parents forty years ago and was educated in the University of | Dublin, where he graduated in honors |in clagsics and literature. He was or- | dained deacon by the present Archbishop | of Armagh, then the Bishop of Derry, and shortly afterward came to the United | States. He was recommended by the late Cornelius Vanderbilt to_the uslstnmshlfl at St. Bartholomew's Church, New Yor City, where for over four years he was the afternoon preacher. While in _that church_ he was ordained_priest by Right Rev. Henry C. Potter, Bishop of New York. In 1888 he was called to Springfield, Ill., where he formed a new parish and built one of the largest churches of the diocese, In 1861 he was called to take charge of Trinity Church, Columbus, Ohio, and in 1892 was _appointed rector of St. Peter's Church, Baltimore, which charge he now fills. St Peter’s Church {s the largest Episcopal church in Baltimore (a city of 520,000 people) and has the rerulatlon of having the largest congregation of any Episcopal church in the city. inity’s new pastor has the reputation of being one of the finest pulpit orators in the United States, and his executive abil- ity has been signally demonstrated in his administration of the affairs of St. Peter's Church in Baltimore, which Par!sh he has practically made, raising it from compar- atlve obscurity to a foremost place among the Episcopal parishes of America. ————————— NAMED THEIR CLUB.

They arranged to be married by a Justice of | the Peace yesterday morning and on Fri- | day night Coll got Mrs. Greenfeld to go with him and Mamie to buy the wedding ring. Mamie’s big brother Harry had been searching for her, and he stumbled against the trio in front of the Clifton House. He *“didn’t do a thing” to_ Coll and when he had concluded his efforts Coll was a sight and Mamie and Mrs. Greenfeld had disappeared. Wineroth was arrested on the charge of battery and the case came up before Judge Mogan yesterday.

The Cox Seed Company of 411-413-415 Bansome street has issued Its annual 11- lustrated catalogue of seeds and plants. Artistically and typographically it is a perfect specimen of the printer's art. It contains a complete price list of all the seeds and plants grown on theé Pacific Coast. The Cox Seed Company is among the largest growers and dealers of the best seeds and plants in the West, and thelr business is rapidly increasing, ow:ng to the fact that growers are giving the %reference to native grown seeds over the astern product.

The City Attorney yesterday sent an opinion to the Board of Supervisors that under the charter no bill shall become an ordinance nor resolution be adopted unless finally passed by a majority of all the members of the board and the vote be taken by ayes and noes. The names of the members voting for and against the same shall be entered in the journal. This does away with the rulé of the for- mer board, under which the chair would state that “if there are no objections the regolution is adopted.” The charter pre- scribes that the vote shall be taken as a test ‘b{ which to determine whether the requisite number of members vote in the affirmativ R Charged With Grand Larceny.

SR S A caucus agreement to. govern Repub- | lican members of the Legfslature in the event of an extra session was published in The Call yesterday. The advocates of are not petitioning for an but are simply signing a sion. fearing that a ma- might in caucus be to name the party candidate or Senator, suggested that the language of the agreement should be changed, hence the pledge was amended to read as follows: “We further agree to support and vote for in the respective houses and in joint assembly the candidate who may be selected by such caucus so constituted, but no candidate shall be declared or considered the caucus nominee, nor shall any signer of this agreement be bound to vote in either house, or in joint assembly, for any candidate as the caucus nominee, ex- cept such candidate shall have first secured not less than forty-three votes in such cases. It is known that several members of the Legislature have signed the agreement. Information comes to The Call from the framers of the pledge that no member to whom it has been presented for signature has refused to sign. At the regular session of the Legislature fifty-five Republican members resolutely opposed the election of D. M. Burns. It is belleved that these legislators, represent- ing anti-boss sentiments, can organ- ized for effective work in the direction of caucus control. Leading Republicans who predicted the success of Burns at the be- ginning of the Senatorial contest are now confident that he cannot succeed. LABORERS ARE PLENTIFUL. Many Applications Filed With the Civil Service Commissioners. Up to 5 p. m. yesterday 2000 applications for positions as_laborers and 1180 applica- tions for examinations in the classified civil service had been filed with the Civil Service Commissioners.
