ALAMEDA.

The members of Christ Episcopal
Church were treated to a surprise yester-
day when Theodore VOgt, who has pre-
sided at the organ and had charge of the
choir of that church, handed to the vestry
his resignation, because he objec ed to the
new vestry appointing G. A. Stratton as
choirmaster.
Professor Vogt and Mr. Stratton could
never agree. and to put them together to
work side by side was more than the pro-
fessr could stand, so he left Mr.. StrattoE
in full sway.
The choir prefer and favor Professor
Vogt and many have signified their in ten
ton OF leaving If Mr.. Stratton is main
tained in the position. in which case the
five years of hard WORK of Professor Vogt

Better Times Coming

The New York World published on
Sunday statements from leading bust
ness men aud iinanciers, all predicting
return TO normal industrial condi-
tions within the current year. There
can be no doubt that these eminent au-
thOrities are right. The country is
perfectly sound and solvent, its national
resources have not diminished, the
earning capacity OF the people is unim-
paired, their pluck and energy are still
indomitable.
Uncertainty about the tariff has had
a depressing effect upon manufacturers,
who are holding back until thoy can de-
termine upon what lines business will
be conducted during the coming year
Therefore, IL is the duty Of Congress to
hasten the passage OF the Wilson Dill.
But 10 will be impossible for manufac.
turing industries TO wait for the bill to
90 into operation; before that time the
renewed demand FOR their products viii
have compelled them - resume on a
large scale. The forward movement
will be well under way before the pas
sage OF the bill. The fullhllment OF
Democratic promises will come Ia time
TO give additional impetus To the revival
OF 1894. The outlook for the new year
is decidedly hopeful.

ONE krFEor OF rHr PANIC.
An lndusrry Which Thanks TO Smokers
Thrives Despite the Present Dull Times.

Nav NoRS. January l4.-Tha, Bril-
liant little fellow, Louis Lombard,
whose body is not much larger than
iran Eoerts, but whose brain would
NJ the frame OF a Hercules, told me q
curious thing the other day. Mr.
Lombard has made good foun-
dalton for fortune during
the last few years, and most OF his
money j. invested la match COMPANY.
Speaking Of the pSnic-times, and how
every profession and business had suf-
Tered. Mr.. Lombard said: II know OF
one business which has prospered be-
cause OF this national depression; the
match manufacturers tell me that they
have almost doubled their trade in the
last year
Why, aud how is that" asked.
"Nel,f continued Mr.. Lombard, 1.-The
proprietors OF the concern in which
am interested tell me that two-thirds Of
the matches sold in this country are
used, not TO build household fires, but to
lisht cigars and pipes. During times Of
depression and worry men smoke far
moro than when their minds are at ease;
and therefore the year OF 30 has been a
most prosperous one for the match man
fscturers.n
related this conversation to
Mr.. Charles Barnard. the play.
wright ana he said: There is
another cause which seems more rea-
sonable TO me as an explanation OF the
Increase OF this Industry, than the one
given by Mr.. Lombard That is the
growing use OF the gas range and stove
Tor household purposes. Instead OF
lighting a coal or wood fire once in
tuentY-four hours aud consuming a sim
gle match In the performance, the gas
stove Is lighted aud put out, perhaps
nifty times In a single day. This, in
hundreds OF thousands OF homes all over
the Inited States, means tremendous
| consumption OF matches"
Considering the two views OF the
matter, should prefer taking Mr.
Barnard's explanation; yet the fact
that tue year OF '93 has been so marked
y prosperous. In the history OF the
match manufactures. should compel
/ ono 10 favor Mr.. Lombard's idea; espe-
cially since that gentleman himself.
