C. 0. Oxnam is pas- tor, became too small.

[ In the afternoon Professor Margolus of the University of California read a paper on “The Present Aspect of Re- formed Judaism.” At the Baptist Ministers’ Association yesterday the Rev. A. 8. Coatts of Berkeley, formerly of the Rochester, N. Y., Bantist Seminary, read a paper {on *“The Omissions in the Ethical Teachings of Jesus.” In explaining his to trusts or mononoligg/nor talk ahout intemperance. These sfibjects, said the speaker, were all met in the Old Testa- ment, and where Christ did not abro- gate any of the teachings of the Old Testament they remain intact. The reverend gentleman dwelt on the fatherhood of God, saving that it was only extended to his spiritual children, and not to mankind in general. Many of those present differed with the views presented by the Rev. Mr. Coatts. The Rev. William Rader will lecture to-night for the George H. Thomas Post. Grand Army of the Republie, at Steinway Hall, and on Thursday night, May 17. he will deliver his lec- ture, “Uncle Sam,” at Richmond Hall, Fourth avenue and Clement street, for the benefit of the Richmond Congrega- tional Church. A ROWE'S PERIL. BISHOP Woman's Auxiliary Hears of Divine's Narroy Escape in Alaska. A diocese meeting of the Woman's Auxiliary was held vesterday at Grace Episcopal Church, California and Stockton streets, Mrs. James Newlands in the chair. The Rev. David J. Evans, the rector, in addressing the meeting expressed { himself as being thoroughly at home in the auxiliary. There was an “exceptionally large gathering of the ladies of Grace Church and many were present from the bay cities.

The auxiliary received good news from the Rev. John Chapman of the Anvik (Alaska) Mission, who reported that the Indians have driven out the Shamans and have made a request for a white physician. Another item of most satisfactory news received was the announcement that Bishop Rowe has arrived in Cali- fornia after his perilous exploration of unknown territory in Alaska. Bishop Rowe was at one time three days without food and to add to the peril in which he found himself he lost the trail and barely escaped with his life.

In the evening the distinguished body departed on a special train to attend the General Conference at Los An- | geles. Before adjourning the house passed a resolution thanking the committee of arrangements for the perfect man- comfort of ered. ’I‘h_e Bishops passed a resolution ex- pressing their deep appreciation of the attention they had received at the | hands of the manager of the Occiden~ tal ‘Hotel. Regarding Goodsell said: “We feel that never have we been more carefully provided for or more genially or thoroughly entertained. ‘We have, indeed, been almost embar- rassed with the hospitality, and only through lack of time have we had to decline, most regretfully, an invitation to Mare Island and also to dine with some of the officers at the Presidio.” During the afternoon several of the Bishops paid a visit to Palo Alto and some went to San Jose, where last night they joined the special from San Francisco. Bishop Moore arrived from China on the steamship China and will leave for Los Angeles to-day. - Bishop Fowler has been invited and has accepted an invitation to preach the baccalaureate sermon at the Uni- versity of California May 10, and Bishop Goodsell will preach the baccalaureate at Stanford University the same date. There is more than a likelihood that among the new Bishops to be ap- pointed at the General Conference will be Dr. Stuntz of the Philippines. The doctor, who has seen many years’' service as a missionary, has won the highest admiration of his coworkers on the mission field and also the esteem of the missionary board of America. e i FORM A SOCIAL UNION. Preshyterians Meet Around Banquet Board and Complete Organization. Prominent men qf the Presbyterian church, clergy and laymen, both of San Francisco and the bay cities, met last night at the Occidental Hotel and formed the Presbyterian Social Union. President John 8. McIntosh of the San Francisco Theological Seminary was in the chair. The distinguighed guest of the first social was Dr. Henry C. Minton of Trenton, N. J., who delivered a_stir- ring speech. Dr. Day and Dr. E. E. Baker were among the speakers. About seventy sat around the banquet board. . —— e ——— Do you wear glasses/ Properly fitting and Murine Eye Remedy pro- mote Eye comfort. eyes strong. the Bishops was consid- the convention Bishop Murine makes weak sore eyes. . ner in which everything tending to the | jects are entitled to respect and he the stone | interesting and graphic ad- | is preparing for the | of gthe Episcopal | | 3-Plece BEDROOM SUIT—Solid Oak. golden finish.

CRILLS CONSULS IN THE ORIENT W. M. Castle Says Service in the Far East Is a Dis- grace to the Republic g “Manila should be a free port. The United States consular service in the Far East is a disgrace to the republic. The average representative of this | Government in the Orient is an ill- informed, incapable grafter, a detri- | | | | Orient yesterday, ment to American progress in that part of the world and a living blot upon American prestige among the nations of the world. I make this statement advisedly and my signature goes with it if you want it.” W. M. Castle of the firm of Castle Brothers of this city returned from the a passenger, Wwith his wife, on the liner China. Having extensive business relations throughout the Far East and being a frequent visitor to that part of the world, Mr. Castle’s opinions on trans-Pacific sub- voiced them yesterday in no uncertain key. He has radical ideas concerning the Philippines and no use for the American Consul in the Orient, as may be gathered from the opening quota- tions from his opinions as expressed vesterday on the China's deck. Con- all the States in Union and an ad- The Government needs nothing more than a training school for the comsular service and the placing of Consuls under civil service regu- lations. We have some good Consuls in the Orfent, and none of them ever fade me con- tribute any side money to their'prosperity. I am known there however, and, good or bad, they all know that 1 could make things hot for the Consul that gave me anything but a equare deal. Let the average traveler in the Far East g0 to the American Consul for as- sistance, for advice, for anything, even mall, and in nine cases out of ten the consular hand® will be stretched ‘forth to.catch what may come in response to the intimation that “ithe Consul ‘s not out here for his health.”” The result is that Americans that know the ropes go to any Consul but their own for ad- vice or information and keep their troubles to themselves. Speaking of the Philippines Mr. Cas- tle declares the new possessions, in his opinion, of great intrinsic value. He said: Both civil and military governments have done solendid work there, and in this con- nection 1 want to pay a tribute to Archbishop Harty of the Catholic church. ere is an American for you.

We expanded, and it is up to us Tow to do everything we can to make expan- slon a success. The labor question in the Philippines must be settled. If the Filipino will work, I say by all means keep out the Chinese. The wage for unskilled labor is now $1 a day. This will keep a Filipino a week. He will not work while he has money. We must either break up this habit_which is bred in the bone, cut hi: to 10\ cents a day, s 3 tmport Chinese or give up the Philippines. Our New Minister.
