PASSING AWAY OF A
BELOVED TEACHER,
BROTHER ALEXANDER, PRESIDENT
OF SACRED HEART COLLEGE,
DEAD.
HIS ILLNESS WAS SHORT.
ONE OF THE LEADING INSTRUCTORS
IN MATHEMATICS - HIS
CAREER.

Brother Alexander, president of Sacred
Heart College, died yesterday morning
after short illness. His death will bring
sorrow to thousands of his former pupils
throughout the State, by whom he was
universally beloved for his noble character.
Alexander Mccarthy was born in Boston,
but came to this city with his people when
q child and was educated at st. Mary 5
College, where he was recognized as the
first student of the school. When in 1868
the Christian Brothers came to that school
he was chosen to represent the students at
the reception given to the Brothers. A
year and a half afterward he Joined that
order as a novitiate in st. Joseph's Acad-
envy in Oakland When the period of his
probation had expired he returned to St.
Mary's College as a teacher. Later he
taught at the Sacramento Institute at Sac
ramento and finally came to the Sacred
Heart College, of which institution he be-
came president last July, succeeding the
Rev. Brother Genebern.
Brother Alexander was considered one
of the best teachers of mathematics in the
country and stood very high as a literary
scholar On account of his ability as a
teacher and his charming personality he
was respected and beloved by every one of
his students. Yesterday and last night
there was constant stream of visitors to
the college after the sad news became
known, Hundreds of former fellow stu
dents called at the college to express their
sorrow at the death of their beloved
friend No loss has been more keenly felt
by his fellow-workers among the brothers
of the Christian schools.
Brother Cianan, who was among the
Christian brothers who were welcomed at
ST. Mary's College in 1868 on their arrival
by the deceased as the leader of the stu
dents has known him intimately ever
since, and in speaking of him last evening
said: "He was a fine character, with a
most genial, jovial disposition.
wherever Brother Alexander was
there was laughter and merriment. He
was the center of attraction in any COM
pany, whether of the boys or the clergy OF
any Others He had the faculty of making
the classroom work pleasant. There was
no such thing as drudgery in his class

home together, as he lived on Twenty
third street.
They hired coupe and on the way
home the young man talked freely and
mentioned the names of several people
living in the Mission who were known to
Sims. When they reached Twenty fourth
and Howard streets Sims insisted upon
his new-found friend going into John
Schomers' saloon on the corner and having
drink with him. They paid the hack
m an, but instead of going into the saloon
the young man pressed upon Sims the
necessity of going home.
On their way across the street the young
man struck Sims over the head with a
piece of lead pipe, knocking him down and
stunning him. While on the ground he
was relieved of So so and a diamond pin,
valued at sos. He lay between the tracks
for about fifteen minutes and then crawled
down Twenty-fourth street till he reached
the steps of house. He sat there, I'M
able to move, till nearly l o'clock yester-
day morning, when he was discovered and
taken home.
Sims has abrasions over the left eve and
on the nose, and firmly believes that they
were occasioned by the blow from the lead
| pipe. The police think it strange that he
did not crawl to Schomer's saloon, where
he is well known, instead of in the op-
posite direction. Besides the Howard street
cars turn that corner every five minutes,
but none of the conductors or gripmen
saw Sims. Sergeant Burke and Policeman
Young are investigating the affair.

A FOOH-RACING EVANGELIST.
JOHN CURRIE CONVERTS HINDLE
ONCE CHAMPION OF SCOT
LAND.
The EVANGELIST MANAGED A HAND
ICAP FooTRACE FOR Him
IN 1868.

Rev. John Currie, the evangelist is back
again in the city after seven months W ork
in his native country among the rougher
elements in Glasgow. Mr.. Currie in the
conversion of one Paisley man made a
great stir all over Scotland, and that was
Robert Hindle, who was the great foot
racer of Scotland for twenty years up to
1880.
Mr.. Currie's first meeting with Robert
Hindle was in Scotland IN 1868, when the
evangelist was a trainer of footracers. He
arranged a handicap, three-auarters of a
mile footrace, which Hindle, who was
placed on the scratch, won. Speaking of
it last evening Mr.. Currie said that up to
eighteen years ago he had made business
of training footracers and getting up hand
leap races IN the old country and in
the Eastern States and Canada, but
was converted in 1877 in Montreal and
has since been doing evangelical work all
over the world. Last year he went over to
Scotland and met and converted many of
his old companions of the track, but the
most prominent was Robert Hindle, who
is now over so years of age. Hindle came
over to this country in 1875 and beat every
body on this side in the Scottish games.
His name is still SO well known in that
country that his conversion by the man
who had handicapped him in 1868 created
great stir.
This is Mr.. Currie's fifth visit to Cali
fornia, where he will remain for some
time. He is making his headquarters at
Pacific Grove, but last evening occupied
the pulpit of the First United Presbyterian
Church

sWEDENDORG'S THEOLOGY.
Rev. f. L. Higgins Final Lecture in
the O'Farrel-street Church.

Rev. f. l.. higgins f1nai Lecture IN
the O'Farre1-street Church.
Rev. F. L. Higgins gave his sixth and
final lecture last night on "Swedenborg
and What He Has Done for the World, . at
the Swedenborgian church on O'Farrell
street. Mr.. Higgins said in the course OF
his sermon: 1t is not too much to say
that in the future the world will look back
on the name OF Swedenborg as we OF to-
day do on the name of Moses. Swenden-
borg has rescued from the hand OF unlta-
rianism the doctrines of the divinity OF
Christ and of the sacred scriptures.
Instead of the doctrine OF a trinity of
persons in the Godhead, doctrine which
was promulgated by the bishops of the
Nicene Council, and which has turned the
Christian religion into the pagan worship
of three persons, and therefore virtually
three Gods, Swedenborg teaches that there
is one God in only one divine person and
that that God was Jehovah. who was man
Tested in Jesus Christ in fulfillment OF Old
Testament prophecy that it was Jehovah
himself who was to come into the world,
and also in accordance with New Testa-
ment declarations that in Christ all the
fullness OF the Godhead dwelt bodily.
In other words Swedenborg teaches that
there exists in Jesus Christ the same
trinity which is found reflected in man,
who was made in the image of God. 1t
does not take three persons to make one
man, therefore it cannot take three per-
sons to make one God. There is, neverthe-
less, trinity in every man. 1t consists of
his soul, body and proceeding energy.
Furthermore mans body emanates from
his soul and manifests or brings it forth
to view.
While mans energy proceeds from the
soul through the body so the divine Trim
ity called Father, Son and HOLY Spirit is
embodied in Jesus Christ His soul was
and is Jehovah, the Father, according to
his own words in John.
If the father was a separate person he
could not dwell in Christ. Furthermore
what is spoken of as the son is the human
ity which Jehovah took upon himself from
the virgin mother, and which, by regener-
alton, he made to become divine hui
manity.
The holy spirit, instead of being the
third person in a trinity of persons, is, ac-
cording to Swedenborg the divine energy
going forth as life-giying influence pro-
ceeding through him from the indwelling
father as mans power goes fran his soul
through his body. This is evident from

attention of the congregation.
.tIf you have IN your pocket this morning
silver dollar" said Mr.. Sprague, you
have an amulet with an inscription from
the scriptures bearing the new faith, part
of the great gospel of the work-a-day world.
1t would be interesting to trace the mate

have been written, for those materials

| from the parchment of Egypt and the
! stone monuments of all nations to the

zone of the evils of our time is that there
! is one religion for the priest and another
! for the people; one Bible for the sanctuary
! and another for the world; one belief in
| side the temple and different thought
without. We take our text from the scrip
ture, which the temple. condemns, but
| from which the world reads and draws its
| inspiration. Let US see what is the faith of
worldliness and in what way those whom
| the church calls unbelieyers still trust in
| God.
"Ask yourselves for moment what
| dollar stands for. It stands first for the
| development of man. He must have
| learned the lesson of human association
| before the dollar could be coined. 1t is
| the symbol of law-abiding, of long medi-
| tation upon the fundamental laws of
human association. Still further, the
/ dollar stands for other and larger things.
It stands for things sacred and eternal. If
you would read the religion of a dollar,
watch the toiler when his days work is
| done bring that which will buy food and
shelter and make comfortable the wife and
children about his humble hearth. Watch
| the more prosperous man who goes to
! trade and traffic for that which shall edu-
cate as we'll as feed and clothe his children.
The dollar, which he shall use to patronize
culture and encourage art, the dollar he
shall use to endow colleges and build
| libraries; the dollar he shall use to bring
beauty and worth and larger effort into
the world. Then watch the world spend
ing what it has earned and you will real
| ize that what we have called altogether
worldly is a part of the devotion of human
hearts; means of expressing as well as
gaining larger ideas"

rooms. I think that I can say with
out any exaggeration that in all my forty
two years experience in teaching l have
never found another who could make the
work of the pupils so light and teach so
much with so little effort on their part.
tWhat is remarkable is that l have never
heard single one of his former pupils,
who number thousands, find any fault with
him.

unmarried sisters live in this city. DR..

RELIEF FROM POVERTY.
Mr.. Howell Believes in Stimulating Con
sumption Among the Masses.

Mr.. Howell Believes in Stimulating Con-
sumption Among the Masses.
Walter Howell addressed large au-
dience at Golden Gate Hall last night. His
topic was: "Can We Solve the Problem OF
Poverty ?"
He spoke against the Capitalization of
state as urged by the socialists, and while
recognizing their high aims thought that
the means they suggested were insufficient.
AS a remedy for the curse of poverty he
suggested that the standard of living
among the masses be raised, in order that
the consumption of wealth be increased,
which would naturally result in the pro-
duction of wealth being correspondingly
sufficient.
The advocates of State socialism point
to the postal system as an example of its
success. Governmental management is
not, the speaker argued, equal to private
or capitalistic enterprise. The bulk of the
work, which is transported ton, is practl-
cally done by the big railroads, while only
the minimum of the work is done by the
postal officials. Inasmuch as the postal
system has received numerous grants to
maintain it, which if necessary to private
enterprises would result in their being
called bankrupt, it can scarcely be termed
success. Nor had State management OF
the railroads in Europe proved either salts
factory or successful.
The State government, the speaker said,
represents only the average intelligence,
whereas capitalistic enterprise employs
genius, and only by genius is it pushed to
success.
The orthodox socialist lays too great
stress on supply and demand, while the
new school, recognizing that the laborer is
a consumer, seeks by stimulating consump-
ton to make greater demand on produc-

In commenting upon the prejudice
against Swedenborg, Mrs. Higgins said:
scriptural, rational and harmonious doc
trines of God, the Bible and salvation, it
becomes very clear whence comes this spirit
which opposes Swedenborg and warns hu-
mainly against reading his writings. 1t
comes from the same spirit of religious
bigotry and self-seeking intolerance in the
decayed church which crucified Christ
prosecuted Luther and compelled Calico
to retract his now universally received doc
trine that the world moved"
