A VISIT FROM OAKLAND.
Messrs. Collins and Jacks of the Y. M. C..
A. Talk to Members of the Mis-
sion Branch.

President D. Edward Collins and Secre-
tary Noel II. Jacks of the Oakland Y. NJ.
G. A. came over yesterday and paid visit
to the Mission branch at 2315 Mission
street. Mr.. Collins is also State president
of the association.
During the forenoon there was general
rally at the Third Congregational Church
on Fifteenth street, between Mission and
Valencia. which was addressed by Mr..
Jacks. He reviewed the good work the
association had done in Oakland in gath
ering in young men, and mentioned nu-
merous incidents to show that it had been
the instrument of salvation and elevation
TO those who would otherwise have been
without friends and who might therefore
have sought companionship in question
able resorts. Mr.. Jacks address then as
sumed the nature of an earnest appeal for
more financial and moral support of the
institution.
President Collins talked to the branch at
its afternoon services on "Faith." He
took occasion to point to the pessimism of
such agnostics as Professor Huxley and
Linton, the English litterateur, and, by
contrast, the optimism of those who recog-
nize the great spiritual truths as well as
material phenomena.
Ouc Oh luAlty OWL was
made to serve Mr.. Collins purpose. 1t
reads thus:
There is no alienation for the sufferings of
mankind except a veracity of thought and
action and a resolute faith in the world as it is
Here the great scientist himself recog-
nized the need of some sort of faith Mr..
Collins demonstrated that there were sew
eral kinds of faith. That advocated by
Professor Huxley would fall short, for the
reason that the world is not what it ought
to be. The true optimist has faith in the
future-in what the world can be made to
be--and feels thatsthe true life is the life
within, the physical exhibition being Sec
ondary instead of primary.
There was another gathering. during the
evening, this one being at Grace NJ. e..
Church, corner of Twenty-frst and Capp
streets. Mr.. Collins was the speaker ana
chose as his subject, Witnesses, - to prove
that there was abundant testimony in ia
vor of the superiority oil the Christian re-
igion and life.

ALL THE NEWS.

Ithardly needed the statements of Gen
eral Manager Phillips, published yester
day, to convince the readers of the CALL
that The United Press is now far in ad-
vance of all its rivals as a newsgatherer.
The telegraphic reports of events in all
parts of the world, which the CALL has
been giving to its readers every morning,
when contrasted with the reports of other
papers not allied with The United Press,
have been sufficient to convince the public
of the superiority of that organization. 1t
is highly satisfactory, however, to learn
that The United Press is rapidly extending
the scope of its power and influence, since
by this fact we are assured of giving our
readers not only the best telegraphic SER
vice now existing, but one that continues
to make progressive Improvements and
grows better all the time.
The elements of strength and superiority
in The United Press are too simple and too
manifest to be mistaken. In the leader
ship of the organization stand the great
New York dailies: The Herald, the Sum-
the Times and the Tribune, that so ably
represent the traditions, the wealth, the
energy and the world-embracing compre-
hensiveness of American journalism.
Allied with them is host of vigorous and
enterprising journals extending from New
England southwark and westward to the
Gulf and the Pacific. An organization so
constituted and so led is beyond question
the greatest news-gathering agency the
world has seen, and. through alliance with
it, the CALL is certain to have all the news
that the greatest New York dailies have, in
addition TO its own special reports that
have made 1t the recognized exponent of
everything that concerns Pacific Coast
interests and Pacific Coast men.

LIFE SAVING TENDERS.
OakIand's Devices Declared to
Be Useless by Our SUI
pervisors.
Havoc Played With Dummies Put
on the TraCk--Chairman
Benjamin's Opinion.

Eight members of the Board of Super
visors went over to Oakland Saturday
afternoon to see what the people across the
bay had to offer in the way of ife-savine
tenders on cable and electric cars. Every
device presented on this side of the bay
had been tried and found wanting, and
the City Fathers were eager to see some
thing new which would fulfill the qualifi-
cations claimed for it. Two patents had
been presented to the board, one by a man
named Clark and another by man named
Williams. Clark halls from Alameda,
while Williams is from the Athens OF the
Pacific.
The entire board was to go across the
bay yesterday, but four of the municipal
guardians had other engagements, ana
only Messrs. bunker, Taylor, HOBBS, hlng,
Wagner, Hughes. Benjamin ana oculiy
turned out to test the tenders.
1t is safe to predict that the board will
never recommend the adoption OF eltner
patent, and neither will ever be attached
to any railroad running in this Cltv with
the boards consent. The board grew very
tired of the Alameda mans scheme at an
early stage of the game, ana tnen went
over to Fortieth street, IN oakland. 70 see

patent is simply burlesque, but there is
some merit in that of Williams. While

and carried it under the car, Williams

along. Had there been man On the track in
