Howard-street Methodist Episcopal Church
looked very fresh aEd pretty yesterday
morning, and the glad voices of many happy
children resounded through its halls and
galleries. The decorations were good and
the old church looked like fairy's bower.
1t was day set apart especially for eXer-
cises by the children and right merrily they
enjoyed it.
There was an opening address by A. w.
Bush. in which he referred TO the occasion
as one looked forward to with great deal of
pleasure by all the children, aud then dozen
young ones, representing pearl-gatherers,
bore their little banners 10 the pulpit and
formed line in front of Miss Jennie May

figure. Miss Hattie Brown was the first
ri-gatherer. She brought the pearl Of
righteousness. The next, Miss Roe Sey-

is no longer able to terrorize the lower sec
tlon Of the city as lie once did. This is how
he fell into the police net yesterday:
Regan has been on spree lately for sew
eral days and was feeling very shaky.. He
didn't have cent and wanted drink
badly. About o'clock yesterday afternoon
he went into August Corder's saloon at
West ard Rector streets, and tried to hang
ND" the bartender, who wouldn't have it,
Then Regan went into the small ante-room
of the saloon and sat down. Knowing his
character the bartender kept an eye on
him. and soon found that he had done wisely.
Watching an opportunity when the atten-
ton OF the bartender was directed to a Gus
toner Regan sneaked up behind the bar and
snatched $50 gold watch out of the pocket
of Mr. Cordrr's vest, which was hanging on
a nail. He was seen, howe yer, and before
he could get out of the place Corder and
his bar tender had knocked him down and
recovered the watch. Then he got away,
but was later arrested on Pier by Officer
Mcdonald of the Church-street Station.
When charged with the theft in the Tom bs
Court Regan admitted to Justice O'ReilIy
that he had ''swiped the ticker" He WAS
held in $1,000 bail for trial.-N. Y. CONNER

PLAYFUL RATrLERS.

The Deadly Snake Often Does Not Strike
When Provoked.
Perhaps the following notes are worthy Of
recording as Instances that rattlesnakes do
not always bite. Both occurrences l can
vouch fer:
About the first Of this month three chill
dren, the oldest being years of age, near
Whitmore, in Shasta County, were found
under the house, which was raised some
what from the ground, having fine time.
They had been there within the hearing Of
their mother for about an hour, shouting
aud laughing. Curious to know what en-
tertained them. the mother finally looked in
to find them playing with a rattlesnake.
The snake pleased them greatly by coiling
and sounding his string of rattles, twelve
in number. The children were taken away
unharmed and the snake was killed.
AT Pauls mine. near this place, yesterday
youngster of years came down the hill to
the mine carrying rattlesnake with five
rattles in his hand. The boy carried the
snake in view of the workmen, who could
not determine what he had for at least 200
yards. The little fellow held the snake
somewhere near its middle, while both ex-
tremties of the reptile dangled about his
bare feet and legs. The boy was told to
men killed it. The snake was three feet in
length. seemed active and in full possession
of its faculties
Now, in the first instance noted here, the
snake may not have had sufficient aggrava-
tion to cause 1t to strike; but in tue latter
instance this reason cannot be advanced

with an account of his visit to the White

the best way to reach and benefit the poor
What is called the Whitechapel district
of the worlds metropolis contains 90S000
inhabitants, of whom 1900 are paupers,
homeless and pennilesS, 100000 are in a
state OF chronic want. "A. GOO exist on a few

1T is useless to take the gospel to these
people," said the preacher, "some of whom
have not corner in which to pray. There
is no use telling them to believe in the mercy
and goodness of God while they are starving
But the church has at last found way in
which to reach them. In the heart Of the
darkest place in darkest England what is
called the Oxford House has been estab-
lished. Several years ago the University
of Oxford reached out its hand TO this p0r-

treating all who came to them as brothers.
They established a cooperative store, which
is well supported ana pays the stockholders

a shelter where the homeless were vel
coned from October to the end IF April.
Then they commenced 10 organize work
ingmen's clubs for mutual benefit, protec-
tion and education. There are forty of these
associations now in existence, with an ag-
gregate membership of 5000. One of these
clubs has q library, gymnasium, Co.
operative store and co operative shoe
factory. All OF them are united
in a federation, of whom the first
President was the Earl of Jersey. the third
was the Marquis of Lorne. and the present
is Lord Golden. Every year graduates of
Oxford, members of the most distin guished
families of England, devote one, two or
three years TO this work. and the most dis
tingushed clersymen in England, bishops
and aTchbiShOps. lecture and preach before
these clubs, uplifting fallen humanity by
going down to 1t.
Two Institutions similar to the Oxford
Honse exist in New York, established by
graduates of Amherst College, one in For

ycung women, graduates of Vassar, have
established a home, and are working among
the fallen women of New York.

Dr.. S. A. Collins, physician practicng in
this vicinity, had a terrible encounter with
wildcat, or lynx, few days ago in a
locality known as the devils hopyard." :"
The doctor was driving through the canyon
when two wildcats sprang from the boughs
of a hemlock tree under which the carriage
passed. One of the animals landed on the
hauDches of the horse, the other dropped
into the bottom of the carriage and fastened
its teeth 10 the flesh Of the doctors leg.
The terrified horse ran away and So on
freed itself from the carriage. The amin al
that attacked the doctor strOve to set its
claws and teeth into his face and throat.
This the doctor prevented, but his arms and
chest were terribly lacerated, and he soon
grew very weak from pain. In an inside
pocket OF his coat he carried small medi-
cine case. In the struggle this fell out an d
attracted the attention of the wildcat, who
began to claw it and tear it with his teeth.
The doctor attempted to draw his revolver,
but before he could do so he tainted.
lie was discovered, still unconscious, by n
farmer returning from Salem Corner. In
the bottom of the carriage, among a lot Of
broken bottles, lay the wildcat in deep
stupor. In tearing the medicine case he had
broken bottle OF chloroform. aud the con-
tents had stupefied him. II weighed fifty
two pounds, being the largest of its kind
ever killed in these parts.-Hamberg Comm

Young Mr.. Rindge Sends $4,000 to the
Methodist Sunday School Union.
Since our last number check for S25, 900

Union, Daniel Denham, accompanied by the
following concise letter:

To the Treasurer Of the Methodist Epfscopal

herewith my check, payable 10 your order for
$4,000.

Christ Is neglected.
hope it may be the means OF bringing many TO
remember their Creator in The days OF their
youth" Very truly yours,
FREDK. K RINpGE.
Mr.. Rindge is a native of Cambridge,
Mass, and has, within a little more than
three years, presented that city with a mag
nifcent City Hall, one 'of the finest public
library buildings in the United States and
manual training school. These structures
must have cost more than S1,000.000.
MIR. Rindge was born in 1857, and when
he gave these eaificeS to his native city he
was 20 years old. He entered Harvard
University in 1875, but could not endure the
climate. Last December, as the time drew
near for the formal opening of the City Hall,
he came East, but became i'll soon after his
arrival, and could not be present His for
tune was inherited FROM his father.
Mr. Rindge made condition that verses
of Scripture and maXims of conduct should
be inscribed upon the walls Of the library.
He also wished an Inscription placed upon
the City Hall, and prepared one himself.
1t is as follows:
God has gwen commandments unto men.
From these commandments men have framed
laws by which To be governed II is honorable

deavor TO secure an expression of Mr..
Rindge's preference as to the method of dis

O'Reilly in the Tombs Police Court charged

Ever since boyhood Regan has been a
notorious character in the First Ward and
has been arrested hundred times for all

expert sneak thief and pickpocket, and has
''done time" for several of his enterprises
that were nipped in the bud.
Several years ago in drunken row he
killed a man, and when closely pursued by
the rolice he jumped off a dock into the
TNurih River. 1t was supposed that he was
drowned, but Regan knew something better
than that. He was an expert swimmer and

CURIOUS PIECE OF SURGERY.

The Tip of Mans Nose, Which Had Been
Cut of, Is Replaced.
A singular circumstance recently occurred
here when Mitchell Brand with carving
knife cut off the tip of Robert Louscars nose.
Brand and Loucat are two youths of II and
1S bearing unenviable regulations as rough
and rowdy characters. They were wrestling
over some trhe when Brand, growing angry,
picked up the knife and at one blow sliced
off small piece Of his companions nose.
He dropped the knife and ran away, but
Louscat, with much presence of mind, se-
cured the bleeding fragment, stuck it back
in place, and holding it so made haste to the
nearest physician, who bound it to the still
moist nose. 1t was considered extremely
doubtful that the two portions would re-
unite. but they have done so. and the
bandages being removed few days since
the nose was found to be as symmetrical and
serviceable as ever.
The physician declares, however, that the
restoration is due alone to Louscats imme-
diate replacement of the severed portion. A
faint line of demarcatiOn is all that indi-
Gates the accident-Conway IN. H. special

The matter of granting franchise on
Railroad avenue will be considered at the
meeting of the City Trustees this evening
and the greater part of the session will no
doubt be given up to it. There will be petit
tiOns for the franchise and against it, the
great bone Of contention being the matter of
fares. Shall free riding within the city limits
continue? While the railroad company has
not intimated that it intends to put stop to
this privilege of the people right away, it is
known 1t is very desirous of doing so, and
the Trustees have teer informed that no
franchise will be acceptable to the company
which contains provision prohibiting it
from collecting fares within tile city limits.
1t is not thought that final action will be
taken this evening, but that the company
will get the desired ordinance next Monday
evening. Until the company gets a fran
chise of some kind Railroad avenue will not
be improved.
