the responsibility for so greatruin on those
who look on impassively and force US to
these extreme measures, which later, fools
and dolts that they are, they condemn.
After SO many years of prayer. humllia-

when this people Of its own will has arisen

to triumph. It matters not what means
are employed to accomplish it.
This people cannot hesitate between the
wealth of Spain and the liberty OF Cuba.
Its greatest crime would be to stain the

THROUGH SOCIALIST EYES.
Mrs. Anna F. Smith Talks on
Economics at Metropoli-
tan Temple.
Various Pictures Of the Present
and the Possible Future
Are Drawn.

There was not a very large gathering at
the Metropolitan Temple last night at the
socialist meeting, probably because no
prominent orators had been advertised as
drawing cards. Nevertheless, there was an
interesting programme for the audience.
1t was q sort of medley" as the chairman
put it, with Mrs. Anna f. Smith as the
principal speaker.
Chairman N. E. Kelsey voiced some re-
greet at the few people present, and then
moralized on the Fourth of July celebra-
ton to show that mere political freedom
alone was not sufficient to improve the
condition of the citizens.
"On one hand, to-day" he said, "there
is the spectacle of concentrated wealth
dominating the Government of the people,
while on the other hand is the fearful con-
trast of millions of unemployed, quickly
degenerating into pauperage and crimi-
nality.
1.-The socialists foresee the dark clouds
threatening the nation Either the Dec
laration of Independence must be made
fact, or an imperialism of capital will
overthrow Republican institutions and
establish an autocracy upon their ruins"
His remedy was socialistic form OF gov
eminent to own all the land, machinery of
production and the entire system of trans
portation and communication.
Mrs. Anna f. Smith discussed condi-
tons, Professor Austin Lewis having been
unable to be present. She gave her views

THE SOUTH SIDE ACTIVE,
improvement Club to Meet and
Discuss FolsOm-Street
Paving.
Leon Samuels VIII Report on Debris
and MIR. Mcguire on
.DiStricting.

The South Side Improvement Club, the
first of a series of similar organizations, is to
have an open meeting this evening at the
rooms of the Howard Club on the south
west corner of Third and Howard streets.
Secretary l. Schwartz says the principal
thing to be discussed will be the Folsom
street boulevard. A few other questions
may come up. incidentally, such as A. B.
Maguire's proposition to district the south
side for effective organization, Leon Sam
uels' report on the dumping of debris on
| Folsom street, between Fourth and Fifth,
and the proposition to have Eighth street
paved with bitumen from Folsom to the
new City Hall.
Anent this matter of paving Eighth
street, it is estimated that it would cost
about $4,000 to do it, and the property
owners have gone down into their pockets
and raised half that amount, so that the
total expense to the City would be only
$4,000. There has been considerable talk of
trying to get Fourth street paved with BIZ
tumen, and Mr.. Samues is now laboring
on that project.
Mr.. Maguire's idea of general organiza-
ton for the South Side is to have the Sec
ond, Third and Fourth Folsom-s street I'M
provement Clubs serve as bases, and then
cut up that portion of the City between
Market and Bryant streets, and extending
from the wharf to Tenth street. into the
following, with a good working club in
each: First, from the wharf to Third
street; second, from Third to Sixth street
and third, from Sixth to Tenth street.
Speaking of the dumping of debris on
Folsom street. Mr.. Samuels says: Il find
that for some time past the contractors
have been dumping dirt on Folsom street,
to the great annoyance ofthe people. Sew
eral citizens, believe, have complained
to the Street Superintendent, but as yet
but little has been accomplished. How
ever, l think that if a committee from the
view the Street Superintendent, immediate
steps would be taken to abate the NUS
ance."

of the Fourth of July. Two points, she
said, presented themselves to her as she
had watched the parade, one being the
military feature and the other the lack of
enthusiasm among the people lining the
thusiasm of patriotic displays in the past,
and then drew parallel between this Ma
ton and European autocracies, based upon
the military display. In her opinion the
people of this country are bound hide and
foot to the military power just as much as
the great proletariat of Europe, and she
criticized the turning out of christians"
in military ostentation in republic.
Mrs. Smith then contrasted the America
of to-day with the America dreamed OF by
Washington, Jefferson, Thomas Paine,
and other great advocates of republican
institutions. Foreign ownership of land
and displacement of labor by modern ma
chinery, she next dwelt upon with fervor.
She attributed the voluntary raising of
wages by various concerns, notably Mr..
Pullman, to the fact that next year the
Presidential election takes place.
She drew a lugubrious picture Of the
future, and said that the only way out of
the difficulty, from her point of view, was
the socialistic way, the government to be a
grand cooperative commonwealth, owning
all the land, railroads, telegraphs, and all
the machinery. Her picture of the future
that would ensue was a very bright one.
She was followed by number of other
speakers, who gave their views of present
conditions and fears or hopes for the future.

DIR. GIBSON ON YOUTH.
The Pastor of Emmanuel BAPTIST Church
breaches at the Simpson
Memorial Sanctuary.

The Rev. J. George Gibson, pastor of
Emmanuel Baptist Church, occupied the
pulpit of the Simpson Memorial Church
last night. He discoursed upon the text
"Who being past feeling" from Ephesians,
XVII
Before announcing his text DR.. Gibson
stated that Emmanuel Baptist Church will
hold its opening services next Sunday,
when three sermons will be preached. The
morning service will begin at IL o'clock,
the afternoon at 3 o'clock and the evening
service at 7:45 o'clock Tickets of admis-
sion could be procured at the conclusion of
his sermon.
In the course of his remarks he said
"Your first impression is that the present
preacher has got hold of a text which is
too deep for him. Your impression arises
from the mistaken notion that only old
people have deep experiences. You forget
that the herbs of the field are bitterest
when young, fresh and full of sap. You
forget that man does not need to live
long in order to live much. Many a young
man is older in experience than some men
who have reached three-score years and
ten.
81 have generally associated with people
younger than myself. The young have no
time to be restful, they have scarcely any
right to be happy. Our age has cultivated
the art of criticism to such an extent, that
if they make mistake, thousand tongues
dripping with the foam of jealousy,
will whisper it around town. till it is COM
mon property. The old and the learned
have been making a mistake. They have
been talking to young people as if they
could not understand anything but the
language of the nursery.
1.-THE mother thinks her smooth faced
boy knows nothing but what she has
taught him. She is mistaken. The boy
knows more than he even tells, feels more
than he even expresses, and thinks more
than he even speaks"

SCORES OF NEW DOCTORS,
The California Medical Coll
lege Closes Its Seven
teenth Year.
PROGRAMME ARRANGED.
Terms to Be Of Eight Months, and
the Course Four Instead
of Three Years.

The seventeenth annual commencement
exercises of the California Medical College
will be held in Metropolitan Temple next
Wednesday evening, July 10, at o'clock.
An elaborate programme has been ar
ranged, and the exercises Of the evening
promise to be of more than usual interest.
The last scholastic year has been very
satisfactory. There were ninety-six ma
triculates, an increase of eleven over tho
year before. Twoyears ago the attendance
was only sixty. and the faculty is we'll
satisfied with this evidence of the institu-
tons increasing popularity and prosperity.
The roll of students during the last year
includes the names of young men from
Oregon, Washington, Arizona and as far
east as Nebraska and Missouri. There is
one student at the college who halls from
Holland.
The Cooper Medical Institute leads in
the matter of attendance, but closely fol-
lowing are the Toland and California
Medical Colleges.
Further improvement is promised with
each year, and those at the head of the
California College predict that the institu-
ton will occupy position in the front
rank of the medical colleges of the country
in a short time.
"Our college is founded on the genius OF
Americanism, said DR.. D. Maclean, yes
terday afternoon. THE system is the
same as that on which our forefathers
founded this great republic. That is to
say, we took what was good in the best
schools of the land and eliminated what
we thought was bad.
1.-The college has been changed from a
three to a four year college, with terms of
eight months duration. The next term
will begin on the second Monday in Octo-
Der. This brings US back to the winter
school, the same as the leading colleges in
the East. The terms will be about the
same as those of Eastern colleges, begin
ming in October and ending in May
1.-THE college is in more prosperous
the future is rich in promise. The exer-
cises at the commencement next Wednes-
day night will be of highly interesting
character

CHRISTIANS AND OTHERS,
Elder Turner of the Mormon Church
Defines the True Chris
tianity.

The sermon at the meeting of members
of the Church of Latter Day Saints in
Pythian Hall last night was upon Chris
tianity" and was delivered by Elder Henry
S. Turner. Considerable interest has been
awakened in the small congregation over
Elder Turner's weekly discourse and last
evening fair-sized gathering was present.
The speaker began with an investigation
of the religions of the world, in which he
discovered many kinds of Christians, and
consequently various forms of Christianity.
He classified his theme into positive and
negative Christianity and then entered
upon an calculation of these two forms.
BY positive Christianity he explained that
he meant that kind which has in no way
departed from the original form as defined
by Christ and his apostles and evangelists.
For the negative Christianity he gathered
in all forms of religion which are not COM
pletely in harmony with the first doctrines
and precepts The doctrines of Christ, he
said, endured for time unadulterated.
but they gradually underwent material
changes, and among the departures he
enumerated was baptism. Christianity, he
declared, is positive or true only in SO far
as it comedies with the doctrines of Christ.

HAS A MALE CHOIR NOW,
Grace Church Has Done Away
With the Mixed Quartet
of V0ices.

The congregation worshiping at Grace
Church had male choir to lead it in the
vocal part of the services yesterday and
the innovation drew quite crowd. The
Rev. r. c. Foute preached both morning
and evening, and his eloquent discourses
on the things that are and the life that is
to come were listened to attentively.
For some time past there has been
trouble among the members of the mixed
choir that was paid by the congregation
to lead the singing part of the service. The
soprano was the first to go and she now
has suit pending in the Superior Court
for damages against the trustees of the
church. Ofganist Bosworth was the next
to go and he was succeeded by William H.
Holt. The latter advocated male choir
and he was given his way. The first ap-
pearance of the new choir was made
yesterday morning and it was a success.
The voices are not exactly evenly balanced,
but Mr. Holt will be able to overcome that
difficulty in a short time. The congrega-
ton seemed to appreciate the change and
the male choir has evidently come to stay.

Almost a Collision.

Shortly before o'clock yesterday after
noon the prompt action of two engineers
in the employ of the Park and Ocean Rail-
road Company averted what might have
been disastrous collision.
One train was coming from the Cliff and
one left the Stanyan-street depot, bound
toward the beach. The engineer Of the
inbound train saw the other train coming
head on, and Immediately put on the air
brakes and reversed the lever. At the
train saw the other coming, and he too
brought his train to sudden standstill.
When the two trains came to dead halt
they were not more than 300 feet apart.
The employees of the road declined to
speak about the matter, but this almost
serious and probably fatal accident, for the
incoming train was crowded, was the re-
suit of using one track and misunder-
standing as to time and right of way.
