4 iudiruus incident occurred on late
Sunday 10 one Of the San Francisco churrhes.
The opening hymn had been sung, the Tolun-
tary fnished, and the minister fairly launched
On the sermon. The ORGANISE rose with tns
proud eonseiouznes Of having performed his
duty well, aud taking seat, reYerentiy bowed
his bead upon the chair RAD. From sermon 70

aware Of IL the drowsy god had closed his eyes,
ana ne was IN the land Of dreams. Gently e
aeeps the babe upon its mothers hrsast
siumoered the ORGANISE, vtils from the puIpis

The good pastor looked appeaIineIy toward

the congregation were turned tn that direction.

the time he deemed Httess, the clergyman got
through hrst, and finally the others, one By
one, fnished, except cracked fslsetto that
had got lost, and was vainly looking for good
place to stop. Dsregarding the latter as being
beneath notice, the minister pronounced the
benediction, and the congregation walked out
in silence. A meeting Of the trustees has been
called to decide whether the organ.st shall be
shot or burned
