Father Turk, rector, located on Fell street, near Franklin, on Sunday morning at 8 and 10:30 o'clock. Each weekday there is a morn- | ing mass at § o'clock and evening mass |at 8 o'clock on Sunday, Wednesday and | Friday. This church extends over the entire city, including all persons of the Slavic races, of whom there are about 4000 communicants of the Catho- lic church. Father Turk is the only priest connected with the church and consequently finds his time occupied constantly. An effort is being made by the Bishop to find a priest who is con- versant with the Slavic languages to assist. The new parish house is most completed and is a most comfort- able one, having two stories and -attic, and containing living-rooms, a study, reception-room and private office. The church proper is comple.ed and has | statues that were donated by members of the congregation. Pews for the church have been ordered and are on the way. In order to put the church {in its present condition Father Turk { has incurred a heavy debt, but hopes to be able to clear this with the as- sistance of the congregation, which is constantly increasing. The interior of Sacred Heart Church at Fell and Fillmore streets, Rev. P. J. McQuaide pastor, is now clear of the scaffolding that for some time was used by the artisans who were making alterations at the sanctuary.

The Sunday School is opened at 12:15 p. m. every Bunday, the Christian En- deavor meets at 6:30 p. m, and there is prayer meeting every Wednesday at 8 o'clock p. m. Rev. Mr. Meserve of Plymouth Church says that the union worship of the First Church with Plymouth for many months after the fire did his church much good, and that after the First Church congregation went back to its own edifice the falling off in attend- ance was only sixty-three less than on the previous Sunday, when both con- gregations worshiped there. The con- gregation is now larger than it was at any time since 1905, except when the two churches worshiped in the same | edifice. The Park Church I8 reported as doing exceedingly well and extending its In- fluence day by day. At the communion ervice last week two were received into fellowship and two became mem- bers on confession. In Olivet Church a mission study class of fourteen was recently organ- |ized. An Interesting course has been | prepared, and all members of the class |are paying much attention to the knowledge imparted.

At a recent meeting of the Associa- tion of Ministers of this eity and vicin- ity, Arthur Arlett of Plymouth Church read a paper on “The Workingman. He took the stand that there was neces- sity for organization and the closed shop. = He expressed the opinion that both capital and labor were to blame for existing conditions in the indus- trlal world, and suggested that the ministers urge those members of their | congregations who were members of unions to attend such meetings to the | end that their influence would be for , the best action. | The meeting had as a visitor Rev. | George Robertson of Mentone, Los An- geles County, where he has been in | charge for fifteen years. He was in- | troduced and spoke of Congregational- | ism in that part of the State. ‘ Jewish Creed 1 : The feast of Purim will be on Thurs- day next. A Jewish paper has the fol- lowing concerning the festival: “We hail the occurrence of the feast of Esther with glad and joyful hearts, animated not o by the thoukhts which the even histofy commemo- rated by the holiday recalls, but also by the sentiments appropriate to the period of the spring reawakening of na- ture, in most latitudes, after the long and dreary winter. Of course, such a jolly festival is generally welcomed by most everybody, since it is#a time of rejoicing which lacks the sober and somber features of many of our holi- days. The fall of Haman should ani- mate us not so much with vengeful feelings as with the thought of the emptiness of worldly greatness when not accompanied by the better quali- ties; while the trials and triumph of Mordecal should make us realize that a noble character sometimes receives his reward on,this earth. The rescue of the Jewish people, too, cannot fail to make us feel that they were preserved then and since for some high purpose | by providential interposition.” Rabbi Wise, late of Portland, Or., and well known in California, is still working in behalf of a free synagogue in New York City. The Boston Tran- script’s letter from that city says of him: “In starting his new and indepeundent work in New York, Dr. Wise has taken a position that, according to leading Jews, is in advance of any stand that has vet been made even by the more liberal of Jewish rabbis. He openly ad- vocages, for Instance, tne abandonment of Saturday as the Sabbath of the Jews, in favor of Sunday, saying: ‘I say with sorrow that the Jewish Sabbath in the land is dead. Because we cannot have the seventh-day Sabbath, shall we have no Sabbath? Even although the ear- liest . observance of the first-day Sab- bath was anti-Jewish In character, shall we forever refrain from meeting for worship on that day which in this land and in all European lands is the legal day of rest? It is the duty of the synagogue to proclaim the message of the Jew to men on the one day in the week which it 18 possible to reach them. If we must sacrifice the form of the Sabbath, 'we will conserve its sub- stance.’ “Dr. Wise says that his t'ree Syna- gogue’ is ‘to be supported by voluntary contributions only, and that the small contributor and the large one will be equal, ahd he inveighs against what he claims to be the present order in churches and synagogues of reserving the best places for the largest contrib- utors. Leading Jews of all cities are watching the movement of the popular rabbl with the deepest interest.” — 4 | ~ Preachers’ Meeting During the session of the Methodist Preachers’ Assoclation the Rev. Mr. ‘Wilson of Portland, Or., was presented and he told of the enthusiasm that pre- vailed in Methodism in that eity. He stated that there were twenty Methodist churches in that city and suburbs, that all were prospering, attracting a great deal of attentlon and Increasing each congregation. He sald that funds for the church were contributed liberally and that $59,000 had been raised in a short period for the university. The paper read by Rev. J. E. Squires of the Centenary M. E. Church (South) along the lines of aggressive evangeli- zation in this city was received with much attention and at the close the ! | speaker was given a,unanimous vote of thanks. He cited as an instance of ag- gressive evangelization the city of Stockton, which recently closed up sa- loons, and added that if an aggressive movement were started in this city much could be done toward clear- ing away the evils that exist. He sald that it required energetic work, not by any one denomination, but by all de- nominations working side by side for the purification of the city on moral lines. He called attention to the good that was done in Chicago this mat- ter, when eleven prayer tents . were opened at one time and prayers offered for months. He also called attention Francisco churches.
