friends claim, and dove deeper into the
spiritualistic world than DR.. Clarke. and the
latter's star began to wane. Professor Bell
was installed as leader Of the flock, and DR..
Clarke was obliged to look elsew here for a
following. This he soon obtained, and pro-
fessional jeaiousies and spiritualistic strife
between the two h0cks has been the out
come.
Professor Bell and his flock held their
meetings In the Metr0politon Hall and DR..
Clarke and his following in Washington
Hail. They frequently referred to each
other in their addresses, but in spite of all
the Metropolitan Hall would bs crowded at
each meeting, while DR.. Clarke's flock did
not Increase so rapidly.
On Sunday night Professor Bell gave an
account OF his lite from the cradle to the
present time. painting it in glowing colors,
and endearing himself to all his flock. espe-
cially the ladies.
About this time circular appeared and
in this Professor Bell was described as q
fraud, Tim roster" "fakir."
The Bell following held an other big meet
Ing last night at the Metropolitan Hall.
The large auditorium was crowded with
his admirers, who were more than charmed
with his eloquence and expounding OF
spiritualiSm.
At the close they left their seats happy
and delighted, but what was their chagrin "a
find couple Of men at the door, each with
an armful Of the objectionable circulars.
These were being distributed to all. and
there was rush of the more unfaitEful fol-
them. The faithful, after recovering from
their surprise, made rush for the dis
tributors. but they were sharp enough to
get out of the way. The ladies became
excited and called for the police. claiming
that the circular men were disturbing public
worship; but no policeman was in sight.
One old lady, more excited than the rest
and filled with spiritualstic ardor. stood on
the top steps of the entrance, shook hei
skirts at the objectionable distributors, u
and ordered those nasty men to go away"
The circular distributors were re-enforced
and the commotion became general.
Men and women were daring each other
TO get on the platform and express the SCI
ence In words like their leaders or to refer
to their past lives. Above the din could BE-
heard the words 'imposter." "humbug.

factions, TO follow in almost open warfare

IN GOLDEN GATE VALLEY.
The PrOperty-Owners Are Reorganiz.
ing for Redress.

About i've weeks ago number of the
prominent property-owners in Golden Gate
Valley met in Tilton Hall, Union street.
for the purpose Of forming an organization
to be called the Golden Gate Valley I'm
provement Club.
M. c. Haley. the County Clerk-elect, was
appointed chairman pro tenn. and W. c.
Winckler secretary. A committee of five
on permanent organization was also ap-
pointed.
The objects OF the club are to take what
ever steps are necessary to put an end to
the numerous grievances from which the
property-owDers have long suffered and
have justice done Ia that portion of the city
in the shape of much-needed improvements
One Of the standing grievances is the un-
sanitary condition OF the Sherman Primary
School. 1t is almost surrounded by lagoons.
and the stagnant water Is n constant menace
to the health OF the children attending the
school.
Diphtheria has always been more or less
prevalent In the district, and il Is attributed
to the disease-breeding germs emanating
from the lagOOns.
The school is also veritable death-trap
in case OF fire. AT present there Is but one
means Oh escape Tor over 800 children by the
way of the back stairs, and from there
up through neighbor's yard. II is easy to
imagine what would be the consequence if
fire occurred during school hours or even
III an alarm OF IRE was given.
The hydrant In front of the school Is
buried sixteen feet below the grade The
next and only one available Is one and q half
blocks away. Added to all this. the road is
impossible.
1t Is intended at the next meeting of the
club TO appoint a committee to wait upon
the Board OF Fire Commissioners and
another committee 10 wait upon the Board
of Education 70 ask that these substantial
grievances be promptly remedied and the
lives OF the children protected from disease
and fire.
The club will also make vigorous move
ment toward getting Union street i'm
proved. Already 80 per cent of the assess
ment on the Laguna survey has been
contributed and practically nothing has
been done 10 ill I'D the street, which is In
Q most diSgraceful condition.
The Frankliu-street sewer is also In a
very bad condition. Il cost the city and
property-owners over SEQ, 600, and In the
event Of week rain the sewer would be q
total wreck. as we'll as the street itself from
the valley to Green witch street. At present
the roadway Is four feet below the grade.
and II Is neither curbed nor macadamized.
After the preliminary meeting referred to

after they were over.

Triton Hall last night. IL was accordingly
decided to adjourn till this night week, the

desired point; but Davenport reached
IL easily, and the applause Of the audience
satisfied him that he had done so. None
the less satisfactory from the standpoint of
artistic acting was Mr.. Henry II. Jewett's
peTsonation OF Kerry Kinehela, the newt
able villain in an Irish play. Strong acting
and well-enuncIated dialect were his re-
Quirements. He met them. Then came

Henley is good actor in whatever
part he undertakes, and to be good all

be something out OF the common, and very
near TO the true acting standard. Mr. John
