Hamilton. | Bishop Hamilton of this city pre-| sided over both morning and afternoon sessions | The business transacted at both ses-| sions was of an executive nature, and| it was given out after the adjournment | that the greater part of the meetings was occupied by the various Bishops, who related their experiences and re-| ported the amount of work done in| their respective fields. Bishop FitzGerald, who comes from | St. Louis, was the first to take the floor. After making his report he made an interesting talk on the preparations now under way for the great Exposi-| tion to be held there. Other cities that were represented were Cincinnati, New York, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Minneapo- | lis, Chattanooga and San Francisco. | At the conclusion of the morning ses- | sion the party repaired to an informal juncheon, after which they enjoyed a| couple of hours’ recreation. While the two opening s ssions of the | convention will figure of great import- | ance, still the more interesting portion | of the convention is yet to come. Bish- | ops from all parts of the world are due | to arrive within the next few days, and | it is expected that they will have some | interesting reports to make. { Among those looked for are Bishop | Morre from China, Bishop Warne from | Malaysia, Bishops Warren and Thoburn | from India and Bishop Hartzell from | Africa. At the conclusion of the present con- | ference, which will last until next Sun- | day Monday, the entire party of| | or Bishops will proceed to Los Angeles, | where they will attend the General| Conference, scheduled to take place on May 4 and last one month. An elaborate reception and banquet was tendered the visiting Bishops by the Methodists of San Francisco and vicinity at the Occidental Hotel last night The reception began shortly after 7 o'clock and lasted until 8:45, when over 150 of the most prominent Methodists -of the city re- paired to the large banquet hall, wher: | the supper was served. The large room was well decorated with yellow | streamers of bunting, draped on the | walls of either side, while sweet strains of music were heard above the babble | of many voices. | Rev. F. M. Larkin, Ph. D., acted as | chairman of the committee of arrange- ments and made the introductory ad- dress. He cordially welcomed the dis- tinguished prelates in behalf of the Methodists of San Francisco, after which a prayer was offered. Rolla V. Watt officiated in the capac- | ity of toastmaster. - The first toast was | responded to by Bishop E. G. Andrews, {D. D, LL. D.,, who made a brief ad- dress. Bishop Cyrus D. Foss was the | next to speak. He heartily thanked his hosts for the cordial ‘welcome he had received on his arrival here. Others that spoke were J. A. Johnson and the Rev. George B. Smyth, D. D. The committee of arrangements, un- !der whose auspices the pleasant func- | tion was given, was composed of the | following named: Rev. Francis M. | Larkin, Joseph Forderer, Rev. Thomas | Filben, Rolla V. Watt, Rev. Elbert R. Dille, Rev. E. P. Dennett and Rev. W. S. Matthew. The next session of the Bishops of | the Methodist Episcopal church will take place at the Occidental Hotel at |10 o'clock this morning. ———.—— DIVORCE ENGAGES CLERGY. Rev. Charles Wayland Hoag Advances Tdeas for Consideration. A surprise came to the Congregation- al Ministers’ Association at its meeting | yesterday morning when the Rev. Charles Wayland Hoag, pastor of Ply- mouth-avenue Congregational Church, Oakland, began his address on “Di- vorce. There were preliminary statements which proved so unlike anything else that has been advocated by clergymen of the Congregational denomination that it was some time before there was METHODIST E WHO ATTE | ENCE OF BISHOPS YEST thing like an expression of accord with the principles advanced by the reverend gentleman from Oakland. He held that divorce may be granted on any ground that plainly defeats the end for which marriage ‘is insti- tuted: that the innocent party should be restored to the position occupied before marriage, and that the cure for the divorce evil is to be found in edu- | cation, and not in legislation. There are two general causes, he sug- gested, which lead to divorce—first, the lack of sanctity toward the marriage hond, and, second, the lack of a knowl- edge of duties the parties owe one to the other. There is nothing wrong with the law, he said, but the trouble is in t of the law. CONSCIENCE REVOILTS. The Rev. Mr. Hoag considered that there were some instances where it was prover to perform the marriage service in case where the parties have been divorced. He said that Christ had mentioned one thing that disrupted the marriage tie, and there were, said the speaker, other things that also disrupt the tie. As an instance he spoke of the loving and cherishing wife who is beaten and starved by a brutal husband, whose promises have been broken. In such a case, he said, the conscience of human- ity revolted that an innocent woman who had borne with such a husband when freed should suffer the unde- served penalty of the loss of two things most dear to true womanhood—home and motherhood. General Ballington Booth delivered a stirring address before the San Fran- cisco Evangelical Union yesterday aft- ernoon in the lecture ball of the Y. M. C: A The general's topic was devoted to the *“too highly cultivated” sermons which, he held, were given from some pulpits. He exhorted his hearers to be certain that the simplest language be employed in the churches and warned against the proneness of the twentieth century toward mechanical methods and, display and advocated the old- fashioned inspiring manner of reach- ing and reforming hearts. CHOIRS' WORDS ARE LOST. There was required, he said, some- thing more than the introduction of cultivated music, stronger propelling influence than found in the mere charm of words. In speaking of the plain spoken words needed from the Iips of the preacher, the general gave an illus- tration of the absolute impossibility of hearing one word sung by the mem- bers of some choirs and quartets. Choirs, he declared, must be under- stood if they are to be effective. The Methodist Ministers’ Association met yesterday morning in. Epworth Hall, Dr. Matthew, presiding elder, in Ahe chair. The Rev. J. H. N. Williams, presid- ing elder of Napa district, mentioned with deep feeling that their friend and brother T. B. Hutchinson of Napa was lying at the point of death, and a reso- lution expressing sympathy with the anxious family was adopted. A picture of the lamented Rev. Dr. Beard was unveiled by Dr. Bovard amid solemn silence and a touching tribute was pald to the late doctor’s memory. 2 . An urgent appeal was made for the immediate purchasé of the Beard Me- morial Library for the benefit of the Deaconesses’ Home, the University of the Pacific and for the family of the late Dr. Beard. DELEGATE FROM INDIA. Mrs. Parker, wife ‘of Bishop Parker, lay delegate from the North India Con- ference to the General Conference, and Miss English, who is known as “the mother of foreign missionary work,” were among the visitors, and each lady briefly addressed the meeting.

Dr. Matthew, Dr. Bane, Dr. Bovard and Dr. Heacock were appointed a committee to present the resolution. Ministers of the Christian church met in the Y. M. C. A. building yesterday, Dr. W. M. White in the chair. It was decided to arrange a programme for the Ministers’ Union meecting to be held the fifth Monday in May. At the weekly meeting of the Pres- byterian Ministers’ Association yester- day morning Wales L. Palmer read a paper on “Mirror Lake, the Miracle.” The Rev. Dr. Minton was in the audi- E. ence. | Struck by a % While crossing Marfet street in front of the Parrott building last| evening about 6 o'clock Mrs. Grey, re- siding at 11071, Howard street, was struck by a cable car of the Valencia ; street line, sustaining painful but not | serious injuries.

Last night 'in several of the Assembly dis- tricts where factional differences for- merly existed harmony was secured. All factions have been recognized in | the make-up of district delegations to the State convention. The regular tickets will be filed in the office of the Registrar of Voters before 12 o’clock to-night. The names so filed will be printed on the tally sheets for the convenience of the elec- tion officers. Names other than those printed on the tally sheet may voted for on election day. The State convention of Republicans to assemble at Sacramento on May 18 will simply choose delegates to the Republican national convention and select a new State Central Committee. | The most important primary election of the year will be held on the second Tuesday of next August. gates at that election will nominate Presidential electors, Representatives in Congress, Senators, Assemblymen and Judges. TIME TO ORGANIZE. The State committee for the Pres- idential year will be selected at the May convention in order that ample time may be given to organize the Repfiblican forces throughout the The delegates to be elected at August primary will probably convene early in September at Sac- ramento, San Jose or Santa Cruz and by that time the will be active all along the line.

It is under- stood that General George Stone, who conducted the campaign four years | ago, which resulted in 40,000 majority in California for McKinley, is willing to lend his services for another term Charles H. Spear, president of the Har- bor Commission, is spoken of as an | available man for chairman of the committee. KICKING AT SANTA CRUZ. The Democrats of San Francisco are manifesting very little inferest in the approaching § party. The war horses of the interior | are prancing and plunging. There will be some high kicking at Santa Cruz on May 16 if Mr. Tarpey and others at- tempt to bind the delegates from Cali- fornia to support Hearst in the St. Louis convention. The sentiment in favor of sending an uninstructed dele- gation to the National Democratic Convention is spreading. Several of the party leaders that were counted on to support the Hearst candidacy are now strong against instruction. There was a complete collapse of the Hearst boom in Los Angeles last week. A prominent Democrat, writing from that city. says: “I teil you that the majority here are against Hearst. They will not forget his treatment of Lane, as th pent a great deal of money in Lane’s campaign. Tarpey was here, but did not show up at the club. Mayor Snyder came out for Hearst because Buck’s Little Paris was being attacked by the churches and the Times led the fight and they are closed up for good.” NEW ROOSEVELT CLUB. Republicans of the Thirtf-fifth As- sembly District have Roosevelt Club. The following of- ficers were chosen: President, George L. Darling; first vice president, Thomas C. Mayer; second vice presi- A. M. Macpherson; secretary, Edward J. Lynch; treasurer, Clive Brown; sergeant at arms, J. F. Mec- Carthy. The club is determined to make the Thirty-fifth the banner Re- publican district. The Golden Gate Republican Club has elected the following delegates and alternates to the convention of the State League of Republican Clubs. The convention will meet at Sacramento on Monday, May 16: Dele- gates—D. W. McNeill, I. E. Jarrett, P. B. Gallagher, J. P. Tighe, W. Mec-| Kay, J, G. Kearny, J. H. Harney, Fred (rass and G. W.
