A CLEW AT LAST.
Murderer of William Craddock May
Be Brought to Justice.

DC ~ JuotlSCs
SACRAMENTO. Nov. 1S.-There has been
new developments of definite charac-
ter In connection with the murder of II. P.
Cornelius at the roadside saloon on Friday
night. Two men were arrested to-day
pear the Mokelumne River while travelling
toward Stockton. 1t is evident they were
purposely avoiding the railroad, but the
deputies who arrested them have not yet
reached here.
In the meantime it is believed that the
man Thomas Neel and the halfbreed In
dian Jake Martin, who say that robbers
killed Cornelius. know more than they
care to tell. Both had been ordered away
from the saloon in the evening. but met
in the road mile away and returned to
the saloon together.
The Indian admits that last July be was
in the vicinity of the Twelve-mile house on
the Marysvile road when William e.
Craddock and Chinaman were murdered
ana Craddock's barkeeper, Thomas Slack,
snot through the cheek by a darkroom
plexloned man. The Indian says he owned
pistol at that time with but one cartridge
In IT, Slack was shot behind the bar, and
then the murderer went to Craddock's
room and beat him to death.
lne Chinaman was also dubbed to
death near The house. 1t is thought that
perhaps this Indian shot Slack with his
only cartridge. which may explain why the
other two men were beaten to death. In
neither the Craddock nor the Coruelips
case was the bar till robbed, which woud
indicate that the murderer was after lionor
and not money.
Ii Is possible the Craddock mystery NAV
yet be unraveled. 10y

BLESSINGS OF PEACE.
Sermon by Rev. q. e. Walk at
Trinity Church.


Rev. George Edward Walk preached on
the subject of peace at Trinity Church
yesterday, taking for is text James iii:18:
"Fhe fruit of righteousness is sown in
peace of them that make peace"
Just before our Lord assembled TO the
throne of heaven he breathed upon his
disciples and said, Peace / leave with
you," said the speaker. peace Is the
normal condition of man. Peace Is the
truth and discord is a lie. hence the two
principles are necessarily in antagonism.
God intended that peace should reign su-
preme over all the world. Not until sin
entered was there conflict No man can
cOntravsne the laws of peace without VIC
latng the laws of God.
when sin gained a foothold in the
realm of peace. deadly strife was inaug-
urated. The whole history of the human
race presents doleful picture of war, ra-
pine and hate. Might imposes upon right !;
lust overrides all questions of Justice
Man is not only to love peace, to pray
for peace and always to encourage it. but
be is commanded to make peace. II is so
written in our text. Such men as are con-
templated IN the Scripture are those who
strive to prevent combination, who use
their Influence to reconcile opposing par
ties in families and neighborhOods. Every
man may do something of this, and no
man is mora like God than he who strives
10 make peace everywhere"

Imitation Wares.

The constant demand and the enormous
prices asked and received for antique ware
together with the naturally limited means OF
meeting the demands OF the collectors. are the
main causes for the imitation OF old wares
and receptions BY dealers in antique wares re
so common that collector. II he Is deceived.
does not usually blame the dealer, but rather
is ashamed to expose his own blunder. Thus
on the shelves of almost every dealer in
antiques" are found limitations OF old wares
mixed with genuine specimens, and both the
trpe and the false are paraded before the col
lector who has depend ly on his own
knowledge and judgment.
These limitations, l am sorry 10 say. have
already crossed the water and found places In
the cabinets of American collectors.
Both the American and japanese dealers are
parties 10 these decepIions at auction sales OF
japanese and Chinese wares.
There are many modern limitations described
as genuine old pieces and with wellconstructed
"pedIgreeS" attached thereto.
This is esrecially the case with the famous
"Satsuma" ware, which can so easily be made
TO appear old; and II Is more than probable
that auctioneers wink at deceptions that are
palpably such even to poorly-traineQ OBJ

TENDENCY OF THE CHURCH.
Uses and Abuses Considered by Rev.
l.. w. Sprague.

The tendency of the modern church to
cease to be distinct religious organization
and become society or charity or political
institution was taken uD and considered
by Rev. Leslie w. Sprague at the Second
Unitarian Church yesterday morning.
Mr.. Sprague's text was taken from the
passage descriptive of Jesus driving the
money-lenders from the temple and the
general subject was The Uses and
Abuses of the Church"
After discussing the uaes and abuses of
the personal relationship of the church.
such as attendance. mem bership, etc., Mr..
Sprague took up the social rela tionshlp.
He spoke of the tendency to form church
societies. Nearly every church has one or
more auxiliary movements. "These." said
the speaker, ''can be of great use to the
religious life If they keep before them the
religious purp so of the church. But if
they Degenerate into mere social affairs
they are an abuse. Whatever comes into
the church ought TO have for its purpose
the bringing of men. TO the consciousness
of God"

NTEMPERANCE HIS THEME.
Rev. w. III. Moreland Presents Some
Startling Facts.

The late fire at st. Lnke's Church was
not serious enough to interrupt the usual
services. Rev. W. III. Moreland, the rec
tor. spoke feelingly of the narrow escape
from coDfiagration which the church had
sustained. He preached to a large congre-
CATION on "Intemperance." Said he:
THE liquor consumed in 1898 in the
United States was 1000, 100000 gallons.

YOUNG MEN.
Some of Their Responsibilities and
Opportunities.

Some of Their Responsibilities and
Opportunities.
There was large number of young men
present last night at Simpson Memorial
Church, corner of Buchanan and Hayes
streets. to listen to an able discourse by
the pastor. Rev. C. A. Hlrst, who spoke
on the subject: "The Young Men OF San
Francisco-Their Opportunity and Re-
sponsibility." His text was from Eccle-
eiastes XII :9-"Rejoice, oh, young man in
the days OF thy youth, and let thy heart
cheer thee in the days of thy YOUTH" etc.
DR.. Hirst, in opening his sermon. said
that the present was most auspicious
time. The benefits which we now enjoy
are the results of the struggles of those
who have gone before us, and who by
their labors had paved the way for better
things for those of this age. Historical
illusions were made by the speaker in
support of these statements.
He said that the statesman had disap-
pesred and the politician had come in
stead. There should be reversal of this,
and the former should once more appear.
Whether this country was to advance
rested with the young men, and upon their
shoulders fails tho responsibility of seeing
that the world grew better. 1t rested with
them in this connection to protect civil
and religious liberty.
Many apt illustT atoms were made, and
in closing tue young men were counseled to
put around themselves the battlements OF
prayer and personal faith

FAITH AND noRALs TOGETHER.
" No Man Is More Like God Than

Everywhere"

A novel service was held by Rev. r.

Church. Fifteenth street, near Mission.
last night. He delivered "stereopiicon
Sermon" which consisted of the custom
airy address with the innovation of illus
trations. Knowing that the value of a
lesson is measured by the extent to which
it is impressed On the mind of the listener
the minister has brought the sense of sight
into use, which with the one (hearing)
ordinarily used, will serve to make a more
vivid and lasting impression on his hear
ers than by the single one of hearing. He
delivers an address and in some striking
part of the talk causes picture to be
shown by the stereOpticon illustrating his
thought more clearly.
Last evening the TOPIC was Living
Water" Water. he said. was one of the
essentials of existence. In the first chap
ter of Genesis it is said that out of the
water came dry land. In the eastern
countries water was called the gift of God.
The children of Israel were told if they
left Egypt they would be led to land
where there was water.
To illustrate the contrast of their condi-
ton before and after their deliverance, the
Pyramids with the surrounding wastes of
sand were first shown by the stereopticon,
after which IA glimpse of Palestine in its
luxurious growth was displayed.
Pictures were also shown of Jesus at the
we'll talking with the woman of Samaria, as
was a ph geographic view of Jacobs Well.
los picture of Moses Striking the Rock, Z"
aud Schopin's Moses Assisting the
Daughters of Jethro" and Oriental scenes
were also displayed.
On several of the slides were responsive
readings or hymns, in which the congrega-
ton joined.
There was large congregation present,
and much interest was manifested in the
sermon. The talk was the second In a Sc
RES of four.

was discussed at some length. The church
is becoming an agent in the solution of
the social pro bIems. But there is danger
that it may not do its most because it will
be forgotten that the contribution the
church and the preacher have to make is
religious. The church cae help to readjust
the relations of men to men because il
shows the relationship of each man to God
to an infinite order, truth and love.
The conclusion was that the church can
not broaden its area too much. nor take
too many purposes into its life, if it on ly
keeps the temple as the house of prayer
and carries the religious purpose into
every other aim.
