David Evans, Successor to the Late Dr. Foute, Gi ves His First , Sermon at Grace. Grace Church, California and Stock- ton streets, was crowded with wor- shipers long before the 11 o'clock serv- ice began. The noble edifice was most beauti- fully decorated with Burmah and calla lilles, and a reproduction in blossoms of the Leland Stanford Jr. memorial cross, sent by Mrs. Stanford, was one of the beautiful floral emblems. The ladies of Grace church decorated the church and on the pulpit was arranged a floral memorial to the lamented pas- tor, the Rev. Mr. Foute. The Rev. David J.

PAUL’S CHURCH St. Paul’'s Church, California street, near Fillmore, was handsomely decor- ated with Burmah lilies and beautiful spring flowers and greens and the mu- sic was magnificently rendered. The Rev. W. Maxwell Reilly, the rec- tor, assisted by the Rev. William . Hoff, conducted the services and the choir was directed by the organist, John Haraden Pratt. The Easter an- “‘Christ, our Passover is Sacri- Us,” and the communion 3 ark! Ten Thousand Voices Sounding,” were among the beautiful numbers rendered. The offertory solo, “Hosanna’ (Grainer), was sung by Alfred Cogswell, with cornet obligato by Miss Myrtle Morgan. “In his sermon the Rev. Mr. Reilly sajd that the day they observed was! the most joyous day in all the year for Christians. He said that well might they exclaim, “This is the day which the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be. glad in it.” —_———————— The Turks always eat their opium, while the Chinese smoke it. | Schencker’s tide.

At 11 o’clock, when the doors were thrown open for prayer, sermon and holy com- munion, there was a crowd of ‘wor- shipers eager to find seats, standing room or any convenience so long as worship might be indulged in within the walls of the beautiful edifice. Th- church presented one of those beautiful scenes so well known to the The chancel was vested in the most beautiful flowers. The women of the congregation, while handsomely attired, wore subdued col+ ors, a characteristic noticed particu- larly also at Grace Church. The service was impressive in the ex- treme. The fine choir of St. Luke’s never sang with better effect than yesterday. Beg ng with the stirring proces- sicnal hymn, “Jesus Christ Is Risen To-Da following with Humphrey's Easter anthem, “Christ Our Passover,"” and a host of other beautiful com- positions, terminating with the ever superb recessional, “Jesus Lives” (Gauntlet), the service equaled any former religious exercises in the same temple. The Rev. Burr Miller Weeden, the rector, conducted the service and de- livered a most impressive sermon. Wallace A. Sabin, the organist of St Luke’s, directed the choir. At the offertory in the evening R. H. Hunt rendered a tenor solo with the full choir as a chorus. SERVICES IN NEW PLACE OF WORSHIP The handsome new frame church building erected by the Episeopal con- gregation of All Saints, which was for- merly a mission of St. Stephen's par- ish but is now a part of St. Luke's, was opened for religious services yes- terday morning. The structure was be- gun only a month ago, but has been completed sufficiently to permit its use by the large number of members ready congregation. s flock in the work | r from which | urred | to occupy it. More than 250 can find seats in the new building, but yester- day the church was filled to the doors and any were unable to gain en- trance. Only the nave of the church has been erected, it being intended to add transepts when needed. The fifty- foot frontage on Masonic avenue, near Haight street, provides ample room for such expansion. An elaborate musical programme in keeping with the Easter anniversary was rendered yesterday morning in connection with the administration of the holy communion. Rev. W. E. Hayes of St. Luke's parish officiated. Miss A. S. Tobey presided at the or- gan. Selections were given by a choir of male and female voices under the direction of Mrs. E. J. Malmgren and by the Misses Fuhrer, violin and "cello. The church was beautifully decorated with Bermuda lilles and evergreens. All Saints has a growing Sunday- school, with a membership already numbering more ‘than 100. The collec- tions yesterday morning and at the Sunday-school service in the afternoon netted about $300 toward the payment for the church ———— Holy Mission at St. Patrick’s. The holy mission to be given in St. Patrick’s Church by the Vincentian Fathers opened at high mass yester- day and will continue until Sunday evening, May 1. The following Vin- centian priests will conduct the mis- sion: Rev. F. J. Nugent, C. M.; Rev. J. J. Murray, C. M.; Rev. M. S. Mor- ris, C. M., and Rev. F. J. Moser, C. M. The order of exercises during the mission will be as follows: Five o'clock a. m., mass and instruction; 8 o'clock a. m., mass and Instruction; 3 o’clock p. m., stations of the cross, and 7:30 p. m., rosary, sermon and benediction. The evening services of the first week will be for married women, of the second week for married men, the third week for unmarried women and the fourth week for unmarried men. GAS DESTROTS A BOY'S LIFE An- Vie- Son of Prominent Los geles Merchant the {~ tim of a Bathroom Heater Sl Epecial Dis ch to The Call. SELES LOS A April 3.—Arthur F. Bowles, aged 16 years, son of F. C. Bowle: well known merchant of Los Angeles, was asphyxiated this fore- noon at his home on West Twenty- eighth et while trying to use an instantan heater in a bath room. The boy entered the room, turned up the gas and began undressing. Be- fore he had removed all his clothing he was overcome by the fumes and fell to the floor unconscious. An hour later his father became alarmed at his long absence and forced an en- nce to the room. The young man s found unconscious and died, | despite a doctor’s effort The cause of the escaping gas was | the absence of a vent from the heat- er, no pipe having been run out of the room and this permitted the fumes from the gas to fill the room the same as if it had been turned directly from the pipes into the room. On previ- ous occasious three other members | of the family were overcome by the fumes, but they. were discovered in time to save their lives. The Coroner will institute an invéstigation. —_————————— Soldier Hurt by Train. OAKLAND, April 3.—John Bates, a soldier connected with the Sixtieth Coast Artillery, stationed at the Pre- sidio in San Francisco, was found un- | conscious on the track of the Sout | ern Pacific, near West Berkeley night. He had evidently been struck by a train. He is seriously injured and will probably die, his skull being badly - fractured and one leg broken. Papers in his pocket show that he is 24 years of age and comes from Ten- nessee. e Chemulpo, the port of Seoul, the cap- ital of Korea, looks out over a vast shallow bay, where the tide rises thirty feet. ————————————— ADVERTISEMENTS.
