The Goethe-Schiller Fair Has En-.
chained the Public's
Fancy.
1T IS A FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
New and Attractive Scenes Presented
Last Evening and More in
Preparation.

The second night of the Goethe-Schiller
festival, at the Mechanics Pavilion. was
a greater success than the fist, principally
because the weather was clear. 1t was not
until late hour that the attendance was
complete owing to the stoppage of the cars
of the Market-street cable system. Hun
dreds tramped across town to be present.
Last evening was known as Turner's
night, and the athletes were there in full
force. Their exercises on the stage added
materially to the interest of the occasion.
At $50 the big doors were thrown open to
their widest to admit the members of the
San Francisco Turn Verein, Mission Turn
Verein and the Oakland Turn Verein. The
men, headed by a band, presented strik-
ing appearance in their suits of gray. Be
fore they broke ranks they INDUCED in
fancy marches, led by the sharpshooters.
When their turn came they gave an ex-
cellent exhibition of the silver wand exer-
else, the same as presented by the Turner's
at the Worlds Fair at Chicago.
The grand march was even more attrac-
tive than on the previous evening, and the
number in line was so increased as to make
it necessary to "double up" that none
might be omitted.

The ladies of Lilis Park elected great
applause last evening.
This feature was under the direction al
Mrs. G. S. Lands, Mrs. E. G. Priba and
Miss a. Bode. The charming vounp
ladies were all dressed in white. and bV
request they repeated the carrier-pieeon

previous evening by the introduction OF
several beautiful tableaux.

HE was legally appointed. That may
be question. Section 3005 ofthe Political
Code is the only authority for appointing
a Board of Health for San Francisco. That
section says the Governor shall appoint
four physicians, who shall hold office for
the term of five years The constitution
does not permit the Governor to appoint
to office for longer period than he holds
himself. The Governor may appoint dur
ing his pleasure where neither the consti-
<otion nor the law has provided the term.

Rev. DR.. Muir breaches His Sixth
Anniversary Sermon.

scented With Il Bouquet.

Rev. DR.. J. ]. Muir, pastor OF the E-sreet
+ Baptist Church, yesterday morning preached
his sixth anniversary sermon beforeh con

DR.. Muir took his text from Corinthians
| i:23-2H"But we preach Christ crucified
unto the Jews a stumbling block and unto
the Greeks foolishuess, but unto them which
are called both Jews aud Greeks, the
power of God and the wisdom of God, and
his subject was: His Mithcr's Sermon"
Readers OF that exceedingly pathetic story
of Scotch life, "Ecside the Bonnie Iriar
Bush," would remember. he said, the inter
estinS and effective chaptcr entitled, His
Mitncr's Sermon" II is the story of the
first effort OF young minister, who is
reminded by his aunt OF the dying request
OF his mother, to alwa Us speak ~ guide word
Tor Jesus" The sermon, which he had pre-
pared for his first service, aud over which
he had expended SO much time and labor,
seemed to dwindlc into nothingness anu TO
be utterly destitute Of auy hOnoriDg char
acteristic.
He retired TO his study and there he was
Inundated by the uuworthincss OF his prep
arauon. He mad thought only of sest; Jesus
was ignored. He destroyed his manuscript,
the sermon which did not fulfill his mo ther' s
wish was consigned to the flames. \ new
one was prepared, and from beginning to
end WAS a guide word for Jesus" During
the preaching OF that sermon the congrcga-
ton was strangely moved: il was not by
the learning or eloquence of the speaker,
but because Jesus was made so real, SO
near them. He was pleased. and his aunt
was pleased because His Mithcr's Ser

apostle, for whatever phase Of truth may
be presented, doctrine emphasized or duty
indicated, this subject is 10 he prominent.
Jesus crucified must be at the center, and
circumference OF every discourse. The

This lecture is free and is said to be one

1t is claimed by DR.. Flowers friends that
he can diagnose any disease of any person
without asking the patient question,
and that he is the only living physician
who can scientifically do so without max
ing n mistake.

Traveller says: 'There is no experiment

he is to tell any one his disease, without
asking a question, he is not likely to doctor
his patients for the wrong disease" The

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union held a largely attended mass meet
ing yesterday afternoon at McKendree NJ.

the exercises with an address of welcome.
Mr.. Charles H. Chase then sang n solo.

of the national supeintendents of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union. of
Ann Arbor, Mich. delivered an address
upon temperance, taking '.Heredi,y' as
her subject. The speaker is Il graduate in
medicine of the University of Michigan
School, and was therefore able 10 enter
fully into the subject from a scientific
standpoint pointing out the various virtues
and vices which mankind inherit and
tracing the habits of the forefather to
those who have come after him.
Mrs. Wood said that the created curse
of the nation at the present time was the

hibitory statute would be passed by Con-
gress not only forbidding the sale of in

marked attention and she closed by ma king
a personal appeal to Christian men and wo-
men throughout the land TO do all in their
power in the cause OF Temperance. which.
she said, was the greatest issue now before
the people.
