The address was received with pro- found acknowledgement, and the Rev. Mr. Edgar Vanee left the premises and later expressed a desire to court the acquaintance several Presbyterian ministers of note in the community. He succeeded, and among them was the Mr. Guthrie of the First Presbyte- Church, whose quick perception d him that his ministerial from the Antipodes was not too well off with this world’s comforts. The kindly minister after an interview pressed the Antipodean to remain and accept a place at the family The Rev.

It came to the ears of an elder that Mr neé had been a member of the Roman Catholic faith and had told a gentleman that he was a convert, but his position was such that he required aid, and without further explanation his need was magnanimously complied | with And a number of such instances got whispered about, until the members of the presbytery confidence had been misplaced. General Manager McCoy of the Young Men's Christian Association was told of matrimonial advertisement and was deeply hurt about the matter. It is a fact that the Rev. Mr. Edgar Vanee, according to his own statement, was looked upon as responsible for a similar matrimonial advertisement that appeared in a Vancouver paper not so long ago, and it is a fact that the Rev. Mr. Edgar Vanee threatened the pro prietor of the article which connected the Antipodean gentleman with the same matrimonial advertisement, but he let the matter after lawyers told him, he of the great expense such an ac- would involve. some means not explained Mr. Vanee discovered that Mr. McCoy had | been informed about the advertisement which was so objectionable to the Young Men's Christian Association, and straightwa wrote the general By man- ager of the association, not only regret- ting the publication, but explaining Lthat men do things when in pressed circumstances which they would at no other time think of doing, and, further, Mr. Vanee made an appeal to Mr. Mc- v for assistance toward his passage back to far-off Australia.

Speaking of the affair later, Dr, V\'xli; said: | “A person who has addressed thre ministerial body has been visiting va- !rious denominations pretending, 1 | hear, to belong to each denomination | called “upon, and has presented cre- | dentials of which he evidently has an | I heard | he visited a gentleman of the | assortment to suit each -one. that Roman Catholic church and told him ! that he had been converted to lhflt faith and received a contribution of $5 from him.

James Woodworth quite agreed with Dr. Wills and reminded the ministers that some time ago they had been grcssly imposed upon by a man who presented his credentials, which unon inquiry turned ‘out to be an impudent forgery. - The Rev.

The guesfs, forty in number, began | to arrive at 9 o'clock and were gra- ciously received by the young hostesses. | | Members of the young set made up the | | list of those present. The beautiful drawing-rooms were decorated no more | than usual with clusters of huckleberry | and vases «f cut flowers. The spacious | | ballroom was thrown open for the af- | fair and a string orchestra provided ex- | cellent music for the dancers. There | | was no cotillon, as the dancing was en- ‘urel\ informal. Supper was served at midnight and the guests departed at| |a late hour, having been charmingly | entertained. | | $ g e b | There was a very quiet wedding on Saturday, when Miss Gertrude Liv- | ingston became the bride of Captain Holland N. Stevenson of the navy. The i marriage took place at the home ot the bride’s sister, Miss Alice Livingston, Leavenworth street, in this city. Dr. Mills of Sacramento per- formed the ceremony. There were no' attendants.

The groom is an | Assistant District Attorney, an ex- member of the Assembly and is prom- | inently identified with the Native Sons | of the Golden West, being past presi- | dent of Precita Parlor. The hap couple will spend their honeymoon in | the south. The Contemporary Club held its last | meeting of the year yesterday after- { noon at Utopia Hall. It was guest day, the members being privileged to bring their friends, and the attendance was iunusually large. Mrs. Bertha Brosius, president of the club, presided during the programme. Mrs. A. R. Millitz spoke informally, choosing for her sub- ject, “Utopia Hall,” and citing the in- spiration of the Utopian idea in a charming and interesting manner. Miss L. M. Robinson, who was the vocalist of the day, sang Chadwick's “The La- ment” and “Dance of the Dragonflies,” by D’Hardelot, and was twice encored. | Mrs. Malcoim Johnson's recitations were warmly received. One, by an anonymous writer, was entitled *“At 0dds With Life,” and “The Ruggles Dinner Party,” by Kate Douglas Wig- gins, was the second number. The programme was followed by an informal reception, during which re- | freshments were served. The next: meeting of this club will be held on the second Monday in January. { .

The Presbyterian ministers met at the Woman's Occidental Board, when Rev. Dr. J. M. McElhinney presided. The paper of the day was read by Rev. Dr. Bevier and his subject was ‘Prayer.” Rev. Dr. Bevier sald, among other things, that at this period they looked upon prayer as work, as labor and a duty. He considered that there was a service in prayer as well as a privilege and sald further that all he- roes of the past had been men of prayer. Paul's life began and ended with prayer. Indeed, said Dr. Bevier, his life was filled with the idea of | prayer. CHURCH AWAKENING ANEW. He said further that the church was awakening anew and they heard of prayer everywhere. Prayer, said Dr. Bevier, gave a lighter mind and those that prayed became energetic and en- joyed the fullness of life. Among those who were present were: Rev. Edward K. Strong, Rev. H. H. Bell, D. D.,, Rev. W. H. Landon, D. D., Rev. Dr. McElhinney, Rev. F. A. Doane, Rev. C. C. Harriott, Rev. James Woodworth, Rev. Moses Bercowitz and Rev. J. T. Willis, D. D. At a meeting of the clergymen of the | Congregational church at the Y. M. C. A. building yesterday, Rev. Willlam Rader presided and there was a large attendance. Rev. Dr. W. C. Day delivered an ad- | dress, his subject being “The Coming Revival,” which he said was among the greatest present needs. CLERGYMEN PRESENT. Among those present were: Rev. Wiiliam Rader, Rev. Dr. George C. | W. H. Atkinson, Rev. C. R.| R. C. Brooks, Rev. A. C. Drahms, | Dr. W. C. Day, Rev. J. K. Harrison, Rev. J. K. McLean, Rev. John Phillips, Rev. Dr. . C. Pond, Rey. James Rowell, Rev.

A meeting of the Methodist Ministers’ Assocliation was held yesterday at Ep- worth League Hall when a paper was read by Rev. E. M. Hill on "Faith and Doubt,” in which the unsettling effect of doubt upon the practical life of Christian men and women'was treated. Rev. William M. Brewster, just ar- rived from China, told of the converts of his mission and of the feeling among the natives to contribute to the Chris- tian work and make it self-supporting and independent, so far as money is concerned, of the missionary board. Bishop Hamilton and numerous min- isters were present. TO HOLD LOVE FEAST. The Methodist churches will hold a love feast and watch night service New Year's eve at Central Methodist Epis copal Church, Mission street, between Sixth and Seventh. Every one will be admitted by presenting an old-fash- joned “love feast ticket,” such as was used in Baltimore in 1853. sand of the invitations have been or- dered for distribution.

Fitzgerald, 72 years old, | committed suicide last Sunday night | at her residence, 2320 Sutter street, by { inhaling illuminating gas. Her daugh- | ter, Mrs. H. L. Atkinson, with whom | she liyed, smelled escaping gas in the | house at 6 o'clock vesterday morning. She notified her husband and they made a search for the leak and found Mrs. Fitzgerald's body lying in bed undress- ed. The keys on the two gas burners in the room were open and gas was flowing from the fixture. On the bed | they found a small satchel with a note in it containing the following: “Forgive me, May. It will soon be all | over.” Dr. Stone of Mount Zion Hospital was immediately called by telephone, but Mrs. Fitzgerald had been dead for many hours. The unfortunate woman had been | sick and despondent for a long time. | Emil G. Kluge, a mémber of the re- tail cigar firm of Kern & Kluge at 97 Third street, was found suffocated by | illuminating gas in the pantry of his | residence, 3780 Twenty-third street, yes- terday morning. His relatives are nr‘ he opinion that his death was the re- | sult of an accident. His 1l-year-old son Frederick, with whom he slept, in- formed the family that his father got | | out of bed at 71 o'clock on Sunday | night, partly dressed himself and went | to the pantry to get some hot water, his health having been very poor late- | ly. When the boy awoke in the morn- | !ing he saw that his father had not| | returned aund he informed decedent's | stepdaughter, Miss Emily Schneider, | who found Mr. Kluge lying dead on the pantry floor near a small gas stove, the key of the burner being open and the gas flowing from it. the flame be- g out.
