Ross Taylor, in Palo Alto this afternoon. His death is the culmination of a lingering illness, with paralysis as the immediate cause., Bishop Taylor had just passed his 8ist birthday and sixtieth year of service in the Methodist church. He was placed | on the retired list in 1894, and since 183 has resided nearly all of the time in Palo Alto. HAD EVENTFUL CAREER. ‘William Taylor was born May 2, 1821, in Rockbridge County, Virginia. He en-| tered the university when twenty-one years old and his career as a preacher, evangelist and missionary was an event- ful one. His fields of Christian endeavor and labors included countries in all con- charge was in the mountains of his native more Conference he preached for seven years. In 1849 he came to San Francisco and for seven years labored among the rugged and restless miners, adventurers and sail- ors who then comprised the greater part of the population. He built the first Methodist Episcopal church in San Fran- cisco and the site of the present City Hail once stood in the name of Willlam Taylor, in trust for the church he represented. Many pioneers will recall the memorable gospel meetings conducted by the Rev. William Taylor in Portsmouth Square. In 1852 the young minister and his fam- ily located in Alameda. For seven years after leaving California in 1856 he traveled over the United States and Canada as an evangelist. The next fourteen years were spent in missionary work in_Australia, Cape Colony, South Africa, Hindostan, the West Indies and in South America. He came back to this country as a del- egate to the general conference held in Philadelphia in 1884. He went forth from that conference with his title of Bishop and with the continent of Africa as his diocese. MADE MAfiY CONVERTS. In Natal, Kaffraria, Johannesburg, Pre- toria, St. Paul de Loando, Liberia and all along the eastern and western coasts of South Africa Bishop Taylor made thou- sands of converts to Christianity. The Bishop, with a corps of faithful assistants, would fearlessly invade the territory oc- cupied by the fiercest tribes in South Africa for the purpose of spreading the gospel of Christ. The results of his pro- digious efforts were phenomenal and gave a powerful impulse to the cause of Meth- odism among the natives and Europeans in South Africa. Wherever Bishop Taylor preached he was greeted by great crowds. Even in the more civilized centers and at the mission stations the church accom- modations were too limited for the con- gregations. Where the people could not understand him in English Bishop Taylor DOAN’S KIDNEY PILLS. A HELPING HAND Is Gladly Extended by a San Fran- cisco Citizen. There are many enthusiastic citizens in San Francisco prepared to tell their ex- perience for the public good. Testimony from such a source is the best evidence, and will prove a “helping hand” to scores of rleaders. Read the following state- ment: Mrs. B. Carrington, of 168 Linden ave- nue, Carrington, packer), says: “Reading a paper one evening I chanced to notice that Doan's Kidney Pllls cured backache and other incidentals due to either excited or weakened kidneys. I was subject to pain in the back always more acute if I caught cold or over-ex- erted myself. At the time I noticed the advertisement I was actually suffering I think more than usual, and procu a box of the Pills at the Owl Drug store, 1128 Market street. The treatment stopped the last attack. Other members of my family have used Doan's Kidney Pills'| and received as undoubted benagt‘ My advic]e“tté lsmycme "?{“"id with kidney complaint in any of its forms Dou.Z'a Kidney Pills.” Hetoreey For sale by all dealers, price 50 cents a box.

CONVERTS “DEVIL DOCTOR.” At another place a ‘devil doctor,” who had deluded the natives for years, pushed to the front to hear Bishop Taylor tell of the Christian religion. Daubed with red paint and robed in the skins of wild ani- mals, the “devil doctor” presented a gro- tesque appearance. After hearing Bishop Taylor's exhortations the native priest was profoundly impressed and immediate- ly became a convert: Bishop Taylor was retired from active work in the episcopacy four years ago be- cause of advanced age. Since his retire- ment he passed his time with members of his family in New York, Georgia, Ala- meda and Palo Alto. Bishop Taylor was the author of sev- eral volumes depicting stirring scenes and events in his long career in the cause of Christianity. Everything about Bishop Taylor was of the épic strain. His great frame, ‘“put up,” as he was used to say, to “keep in all climates”; his wonderful voice, his headlong convictions, the #pathos” and grandeur in his preaching and prayer and his impetuous activity made him a nota- ble figure. California Methodism was always proud of him, not only as the custodian of its early traditions, but as the hero of its most thrilling experiences. MERRY TO THE LAST. He retalned a merry, boyish heart to the last, -and possessed a fineness of tem- perament and a generosity of spirit that endeared him to all with whom he came in_contact. Bishop Taylor was a member of the So- clety of California Pioneers. He- leaves a wife and four sons, Senator E. K. Tay- lor, City Recorder M. S. Taylor and Har- ry R, Taylor, all of Alameda, and the Rev. Ross Taylor of Palo Alto. @ cieofeillenferforflomiefeefmfeleofrfefeooiels @ ADMITS THE COMPANY GAVE CERTAIN REBATES Freight Agent of the Frisco Road Makes Some Very Important Admissions. ST. LOUIS, May 18.—J. A. Middleton, general freight agent of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company, testi- fied before the Interstate Commerce Com- mission in St. Louis that his road had glven rebates on grain shipments in viola- !“'I of the interstate commerce law, and 1t¥s expected that the commission will at once ask for an injunction to restrain that railroad company from further violation. The hearing was conducted by Special Agent Marchard and before Special Com- mhsloners)‘Px‘outY and Fifer. Middleton's testimony was to the effect that ‘the Frisco, prigr to January 1, 3 had made refunds to the Brinson-Judd Grain Company and Langdenbirg & Co. on grain brought to the Mississippl River. He stated that the Frisco had been forced to this practice by the competition of oth- er lines, which since have been enjoined. The Frisco, according to the statement of a freight official, will make no objec- tion to an injunction; in fact, it is stated that the company would rather prefer to have it. An injunétion against the Frisco will put all the roads in the grain terri- tory on the same basis. —————— Treasury Receipts Fall Short. HAVANA, May 18.—The collection of receipts under the American regime closed last night. Full reports are not in from all parts of the islands, but the indica- tions now are that Governor Generai ‘Wood will leave in the treasury about $400,000. This is less than the amount it was estimated a few days ago would be turned over to the new government, the shortage being due to the rush in the payment of warrants last week. 7 —_—————— “Lectures on Catholics. Alexander P. Doyle, editor of ghe Catk- olic World, which is published in New York, lectured last night at the Paulist Church, corner of Dupont and California streets. His subject was the e’'s latest letter to America. In it the Pope stated: ‘““We bless the Catholic church and we know that it will all the time add to the vast colony it has already formed. ‘We have earned the inspiration of the Bible and the title of Catholics. We have achieved results all over the world. Our missionaries are everywhere. The Cath- olics trul* deserve the plaudits of re- ligion.” The Pope further gave fllustra- ‘work-done by the Cath- tions of the rood olics and told in a measure how to further | its good work. - } - ¥ DISTINGUISHED PRELATE OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURéH ‘WHO DIED AT AN ADVANCED AGE IN PALO ALTO AFTER MANY YEARS OF EMINENT RELIGIOUS SERVICE.

The annual banquet of La Ligue Henry IV took place last evening at Union Square Hall, on Post street, the affair being given in honor of the retiring presi- dent, Jules S. Godeau. More.than 400 members of the fraternal organization were seated at the banquet board and for two hours enjoyed a boun- teous repast. The leading members of the French colony were present and a large number of ladles were among the guests. The retiring president was supported by the incoming president, Charles Artigues, and P. A. Bergerot was the toastmaster. President Dupas of the French Benevo- lent Society was a guest of honor, and at the head of the banquet board were A.

The retiring president was presented with. a diamond-studded gold locket by the members of the league, felicitous speeches being made by the toastmaster and the recipient of the gift.

FARK TENNIS PLAYERS ORGANIZE A CLUB Will Apply for Membership in the Body Governing the Pastime on This Coast. The strong wind blowing yesterday did not keep the tennis enthusiasts away from the tennis courts and some good matches were played on the Park and California Club grounds. The park play- ers formed a club and will apply for ad- mission to the Pacific States Lawn Ten- nis Association, the governing body on the coast. James A. Code, forwerly of the Califor- nia Club, is the originator of the ide?‘and was elected president. Charles Dunlap is vice president and J. F. Brady secretary and treasurer. The board of directors is composed of L. C. Bozart, Harry E. Routh, G. K. Bates and J. M. Baker. The new club will be called the Golden Gate Park Lawn Tennis Club and in future will handle all tournaments held on the public courts. There will be no initiation fee, and as the monthly dues are small nearly all of the frequenters of the park courts wiil join. fhnrles Dunlap made the best showing on the public courts yesterday. He beat both James Code and Harry Routh. The score in the former match was 6-3 and in the latter 6-2, 7-5. Routh and George Bates played a match in which the for- mer was victorious after a close struggle. The score in Routh s favor was 6-3, 6. ‘| Other singles matches resulted as fol- lows: Janes beat J. F. Brady, 6-4; C. Griffin beat Brown, 6-4, 6-2, 5-7, 6-2; P. Martin beat Charles Ross. 6-2; Whittle beat J. Coffey, 6-0. In doubles Brady and Black beat Janes and Reading, 8-6; G. K. Bates and F. Long beat L. C. Bozart and J. A. Code, 6-4, 7-5; Ed Finnigan and Cummings_beat Brown and Janes, 10-8; Brady and Code were beaten by Bates and Long, 5-1. On the California Club courts Harold Crowell and Will Collier furnished the best match of the day. The latter was a trifle too steady for his partner and beat him two sets out of three. The score was 6-2, 6-4, 8-10. Joe Daily beat’ G. N. Armsby, 6-0, 6-1, 6-4; J. G. Gibson beat James McKenzie three sets out of five; Frank Stringham beat George Whipple, 6-2 - 7-5; Orville Pratt beat Sidney Salis- bury, 6-2, 6-3, 7-5; Dr. Morrow beat Judge Kerrigan, 6-4, 6-1; Nelson Shaw tied Bigelow, 6-1, 4-6; A. Worthington beat Dr. Noble, 6-2, 6-2, 2-6. In doubles Carl Gardner and Frank Mitchell came within an ace of beating Collier and Crowell. The latter must be losing their skill, for lately they have found it difficult on severai occasions to win from teams composed of lower class men. The score in favor of Collier and Crowell was 6-3, 9-11, 6-4. Orville Pratt and Sidney ‘Ballsbur{l beat Frank String- ham and George Whipple, §-3, 6-3, 10-8. George and Robert Whitney, the ecast champions, played some fast matches at Burlingame yesterday. George beat Rob- ert, 6-4, and Joe Tobin, 6-3. Robert beat Tobin, 6-4. In doubles George Whitney and Prescott Scott tied Robert Whitney and Joe.Tobin. The score was 6-2, 1-6. —_———————— Painter Dies From Shock. The body of Patrick J.
