VALPARAISO, July 18.—The Ecuador- ian Consul General in Valparaiso, A. Arjas Sanchez, was assassinated to-day in the center of the city. He was shot and stabbed and his ears were cut off.

Several Alfaronans have been arrested. tion of the laws promulgated in these three provinces. ‘The residents of the island of Cebu have protested, but without success, against the return of that island to military con- trol. Several towns in Cebu are still be- sieged by the insurgents. The insurrec- tion on the island of Bohol has been re- newed and insurgent sentiment in the province of Batangu is strong. General Chaffee has ordered a battalion of the Thirtieth Infdntry to begin the occupation of the island of Mindoto. The province of Batangas will be occupied by the entire Twentieth Infantry. H.

Mr. Whitmarsh denfed OPENING SESSION OF THE GREAT EPWORTH LEAGUE CONVENTION Continued from Page Three. CALIFORNIA MAY DEFY THE WORLD Rev. J. C. Simmons Believes Young Leaguers Do Much Good. The Rev. J. C. Simmons of Woodland was introduced as the Nestor of the Meth- odist Episcopal Church South. The vet- eran minister was accorded a flattering reception. He expressed the welcome to the delegates in behalf of Culifornia Methodism. He said in part: When California_opened her heart to entend an invitation to the great International Ep- worth League Conference, she had back of that a welcome as cordial as the invitation: California is_known all over the world for its big things. We can fearlessly throw down the gaurtlet and defy the world to beat fis—even in bragging. And I fear if we were to tell you how welcome you were to our hearts and our homes you could hardly comprehend us and would perhaps think we were bragging. But it will require only a few hours' inter- course with us to convince you that all we-say is_in sincerity. ’ But_while we give you a welcome as wide as our fertile valleys and as deep as our mighty rivers, yet we do not want to give all. We look to you for a great spiritual uplift that will make California good as well as great. ‘We look to you to burnish our gold and to set it with new and rare gems and to glorify it Wwith the splendors of a holy zeal for the cause of our common Master. We expect great for good will be as wide as the welcome we give you. - The Rey. Mr. Simmons’ address was in- terspersed ~with humorous . anecdotes, which kept the convention in high good humor. When, in his peroration, he al- luded to God as knowing no difference be- tween a Methodist from the North or the Methodist from the South, the au- /| dience rose to its feet in-a burst of en- thusiasm. ~At the close of the address Rev. Mr. Simmons was cheered.

Eloquent Address of Bishop I. W. Joyce, President of the League. The first response to the welcomes ex- pressed by the previous speakers was voiced by Bishop I. W. Joyce, president of the league. When the applause that greeted his appearance in the rostrum had subsided he sald, in clear, resonant tones: Mr. President: We are glad to have these words of greeting and of welcome. They do us good. Kind words are always refreshing— especially to strangers. This Epworth League Conference is made up of representatives from the country charge, the village church and the city station. We come from the farm, the stora and the shop, “from the factory and the We come from the academy and the and the schools of the great profes- Ministers of the gospel are here. Lawyers and physicians are present: Editors and re- porters are of our number, and one spirit ani- mates all these delegations and the entire con- ference. One purposa will sive coloring to all utterances and:actions during this conference, and that will be how to better serve that for which the Epworth League stands, so that we can best serve Jesus Christ and his world-em- bracing cause. Many of us have been for a long while looking forward to this occasion— been anticipating the pleasure of the journey to_this city. Well we have seen the attractive plains and passed through the fertile hill country, and we have been made glad by the scenery of the mountain ranges, and the ride down the Pa- cific slope has satisfled us in every particu- lar. We are here from all parts of the United States and from the Dominion of Canada. In- deed, I would not be far from the real facts if I should say ‘‘the blood of many natlons is represented in this Epworth Conference.”” And it I may be allowed & semi-prophetic view of what may take place in the coming years, I would say ‘It may be that some fu- ture Epworth international conference will be made up of del tes from every nation on the face of the earth.’ An Occasion of Gladness. Our surroundings at this hour are most happy, and the occaston Is filled with the Spirit of a great gladness. In the providence nil God we are here in the city of San Fran- clsco. We recognize the fact that many thousadds of people during the years pass through this clty. going to the most distant parts of the earth or coming from the same. Some of these multitudes are missionaries, going in the name of our Lord, with the Word of Life to heathen people, and others are of the same class, re- turning from their distant felds with broken health, coming home to rest, regain health and return to thelr deeplv loved work. Others of these numbers are in quest of for- tune, or of health, or of intellectual gains, or of pieasure, while in very recent vears thou- sands of American boys have passed through this city to render service under the Stars and Stripes in the interest of humanity in dis- tant lands. Many of them were members of the Epworth League and there on the flelds of battle, as everywhere, they were true to a great principle, and did their duty well. We also recognize the fact that i this city there are many who love the Lord Jesus Christ, and are in alliance with him for the best service they can render in enlarging the kingdom of our Lord in the earth. We wish to say to these friends that we hope our com- ing among them will be to them a spiritual Dlessing. To the best of our knowledge and belief every one of these thousands of leaguers come from a Christian home and each one is him- self a Christian. The ecity will suffer no Il from the presence of such a company of people. They will send their prayers to heaven in your behalf—that God will bless you in all things and keep you in_great peace. This Epworth conference, it seems to me, should be a blessing to this city and to our- selves also. The purpose n coming here is not a common or an ordinary one. It is to help and be helped. ‘What the League Emphasizes. The things the Epworth League emphasizes indicate its character and reveal the kind of service it tries to render. They are: First—Right personal relations with God. Second—True Christian character. Third—Best Christian living. Fourth—Courageous, useful, Christian service. The central secret of the whole is fellowship with God. It is a great work to win men to Christ; to build them up in righteousness and send them forth for high service In the interest of the kingdom of Jesus Christ. In this way Christ becomes more than mere teacher. He becomes Savior to each one; purifier of the soul. He becomes leader in paths of safety that lead to victory. This enriches with the strongest thinking, the purest affection, right living, and bravest doing, and these, will crowd the best workers to the front in all forward movements in the church of God. The hope of humanity is in Jesus Christ. The doctrines he taught and the principles he announced grow upon the conscience and judgment of thoughtful men as the centurles 0 by. Eorhs Wpworth League is intended to stand for him, and to contend for everything he taught, and for everything he wants men to be and to do. We cannot overlook the fact that problems, world wide in importance and interest, con- front the church of Jesus Christ to-day. Some of them are of a character she never faced before. They affect the man and the child, the home and society, the State and its insti- tutions. Multitudes of the most devout ahd thoughtful men and women in the land are deeply concerned over the gravity of the sit- uation indicated by some of these problems, WHERE CANADA GOT METHODISM Rev. J. Henderson of ‘Toronto Speaks of League in His Country. Rev. James Henderson of Toronto, Can- ada, responded to the welcome in behalf of the Canadian contingent. He said in | part: I am reminded to-day of our great obligation to you—that which has made us largely what we are. It was from you, sir, we got much of our Methodism. Your adventurous Wil- liam Losee was the morning star of the Meth- odist church in the wilds of Canada. And among the names which shine the brightest on the roll of Methodistic fame in our coun- try are those of Dinham and Ruter and Bangs and Black and Freeborn Garretson, the latter of whom, sir, you will remember was converted things from you and trust that your influence’| on horseback;, and our Methodism has been on the go or the gallop ever since. I do mot in- dulge in anytning like poetic license when I say that these old saddle-bag preachers who crossed the line together with their successors did mcre to lay the moral foundations of our country than any other agency. The dust of many of those American ploneer preachers sleeps in many an unmarked grave, but some of them deserve a cenctaph in Westminster Abbey. They were mighty men. They were not all college bred. In ridicule some of them have Dbeen called graduates of bush colleges and fellows of swamp university, but they were the men who knew how to reach the hearts of our people and struck at the evils of their times as with the strokes of a sledgehammer. Yes, they were great men. They belonged to a special and spiritual peerage. It is true they lacked the dilettantism of the modern divine, who described a tear as that small particle of aqueous fluld trickling from the visual organs over the facial lineaments, in- dicating ecstatic joy or bitter grief, but their preaching often brought tears of penitence to eyes that had never wept for sin before. Like Bruce's army at Bannockburn, these men won their victories upon their knees. But it was such preaching and praying that gave us a Chris- tian Canada, so that the ‘bond that binds our hearts to your great Methodist church is one that can never be broken. And, sir, in Canada we were constantly re- minded that all your great men are not dead. We had evidence to that effect, If such were needed, at the last international convention of Epworth Leaguers which met in Toronto. The closing remarks of the day were made by H. M. DuBose, general secre- tary of the Epworth League of the M. E. church South. He also spoke in the high- est terms of appreciation of the royal re- ception and welcome which the Epworth League delegates have received in this city and State. He dwelt eloquently on the great achievements which have char- acterized the course of the lcague in the past and drew a brilliant picture of its future possibilities. Notwithstanding the lateness of the hour and the number of speeches which had been made previous- -1y, his remarks were received with ap- plause. Just previous to adjournment a tele- gram conveying the congratulations and best wishes of State President Lyonel S. Rodgers of the State Christian Endeavor Union was received and read. The proceedings of the initial day of the sreat convention were fittingly brought to a close with music from the choir and prayer by Bishop Joyce, president of the Epworth League. 53 3 HOPES LEAGUE MEETING MAY . DO MUCH GOOD SPRINGFIELD, TL., July 18. Dr. J. B. ‘Berry: Please carry to the convention my cordial greetings. I do not forget that I had the honor of being the first president of the chapter of Grace Church, Jacksonville, I, and have ever slnce had an abid- ing interest in the organiza- tion. May your coming con- vention be productive of the highest good to the church and the nation. RICHARD YATES, Governor' of Illinois. * LEAGUE ODE OF WELCOME Composed by Miss “Dunsmore of Oakland. The following song of greeting has served to while away the weary hours < passed by the Alameda County section | of the recéption committee while waiting for belated trains. It was composed by Miss May Dunsmore, a member of the Chester Street Epworth League of Oak- land, and A. Sandholt of the Swedish League of Oakland, both of whom are alds in the Oakland section. It is adapted to the air of “When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder,” and when sung with a full chorus has a peculiar effect: Epworth League Welcome Song, 1901 California bids you welcome to this land of sun and flowers, “To this land beside the wide Paclfic Sea, Ve greet you, Epworth Leaguers, and a ha band is ours,— it As we give you a welcome full and free. CHORUS. ‘Welcome, welcome, Epworth Leaguers, Welcome, welcome, Epworth Leaguers, Welcome, welcome, “Epworth Leaguers, California gives a welcome full and free. “Look up, 1ift up” is our motto, Christ’" the world we'll win, If for him we battle do and never flee: In his name we bid you welcome, in the name of Curist our King, California gives you welcome full and free “all for BEST WISHES OF GOVERNOR OF MISSOURI + JEFFERSON, Mo., July 10, 1901. Dr.. Joseph P. Berry: I most cordially greet the members of your great con- vention and waft them my best wishes for the success of the mighty work in which they are engaged. It is im- possible to overestimate the blessings to humanity that have been wrought by your powerful organization. Wish- ing you a delightful session, I beg to remain yours sin- cerely, ALEX M. DOCKERY, Governor of Missouri. ROCK COMES IN WINDOW Narrow Escape of Ep- worth League Guests. BERKELEY, July 18—Without the slightest warning some one huried a rock through the front window of Judge W. G. Witter’s house, at 2301 Durant avenue, last night at 9:30 o’clock. The parlor was crowded with guests and splinters of glass flew over the people, cutting several but none seriously. Judge Witter was entertaining friends from Wisconsin who are delegates to the Epworth League convention when the un- provoked assault occurred. After the first excitement several men ran from the house in an effort to catch the miscreant, but no one was found. The rock, although not large, was heavy enough to carry well. Judge Witter has lived here but a short time. He can give no explanation for the attack. _He has offered §30 reward for the capture of the rock thrower. A R Meeting for Juniors. A special meeting, not on the pro- gramme, has been arranged for the ben- efit of the Junior League members. It will take place Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock in the Mechanics’ Pavilion. The addresses to the juniors will be delivered by three of the most famous Junior Ep- worth League workers in the United States. They are Mrs. Anna Hobbs- ‘Wookcock of Illinois, Mrs. Anna Smiley of Lowell, Mass., and Miss H. H. Beason of Washington, D. C. All of the boys and girls in San Francisco should attend this meeting, as well as those who are work- ing with and for them. o+ ADVERTISEMENTS.
