IF CHRIST CAME HERE.

Rev. j. =. Dixon Discourses Upon the
City's Corruption.
"If Christ Came to San Francisco" was
the title of a sermon preached by Rev. J.
P Dixon at the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church last night, and although there was
not the ringing ALTERATION of eff Christ
Came to Chicago" the subject matter of
the sermon was stirring and kept the hear
ers full of interest.
"If Christ came to our city tonight think
you he would have any less cause to weep
than when he looked from the brow of
Mount Olivet upon Jerusalem2 Would he
find less guilt and corruption than in that
ancient city? Would he not find men I'M
punished for their sins because they are
rich? Would he not find the theaters full
and the churches empty, Police Commits
sioners owning houses of i'll fame, apothe-
carries shops turned into secret drinking
saloons and dope dens, Senators practic-
ing ballot-stutfing, men willing to sell
themselves body and soul for glass of
beer, and worst of all would he not find
thousands of his followers fighting in the
ranks of sinP
The speaker then dissected some of the
anomalies of a modern city. 'Side by side

''The army of place seekers, y he said,
''has swept down upon this fair city as the
Assyrians of old swept down upon the
Israelites. They have wormed them
selves into nearly every office. But the
citizens are beginning to see that it is their
duty to know what kind OF clerk issues
the writs, what kind of Judge charges the
jury. They are going to see the prisons
opened up for the high-ived hoodlum who
dresses in purple and fine linen, as well as
for the low-lived hoodlum, who has not
the wherewithal to escape the penalty Of
his sins.

HONORED By BISMARCK.
Germany's Ez-ChancelIOr Joins a
Local Club.
The Deutscher Verein Tenders Him Hon.
Orary Membership Which He
Accepts With Thanks.

The Deutscher Verein of this city has
the honor of being the only organization
in America, as far as is known, to which
Prince Bismarck, Germany's "Grand Old
Man." belongs, and great are the Joy and
pride in the hearts of the members thereof
in consequence.
The Deutscher Verein is an organization
similar to the Cercle Francois, the swell
French club of San Francisco, and many
of the leading and wealthy Germans of the
city are among its members. Though
loyal citizens of the country of their
adoption, the members of the Verein still
have the greatest interest in the affairs of
the Fatherland, and particularly in the
welfare of the old Iron Chancellor, whose
services to Germany will always live in
their hearts.
At a meeting of the club held some time
since it was decided to testify to their adj
miration for the Prince by electing him to
honorary membership, and Baron Merck,
who had the honor of his acquaintance
and friendship before coming to this coun-
try, was instructed to forward him his
card of membership. Accompanying the
card was letter telling the great soldier
of the interest the Germans of San Fran
cisco take in the mother country, and more
especially in himself, and wishing him
many years of health and happiness. Re
Gently an answer was received from the
Prince in which he said:
rejoice to hear of the interest you still take
in our great country, though SO great dis
lance intervenes, and 1 accept with many
thanks and great pleasure the honor you confer
upon me- l shall always have the best wishes
for your clubs prosperity. wish you one and
all happy New Year. BISMARCK.
The letter, which is in the possession OF
President Charles Bundschu, will be treas
ured in the archives of the club long after
the writer has passed on to join the ma
jority.
DR.. c. Max Richter, who is familiar with
club life in many of the large cities of the
United States, said last evening that as far
as he knew the San Francisco Deutscher
Verein was the only organization in Amer
lea to which Prince Bismarck belongs.

An EPISCOPAL CEREMONY.
Ordination Of Rev. H. A. Brown to
the DiaeOnate.
Sermon by Bishop Nichols From the
Text, "Hold Fast to the Mystery
Of the Faith"

The interesting ceremony of the ordina-
ton of Rev H. A. Brown, formerly Con-
gregational clergyman, to a diaconate in
the Episcopal Church took place at the
Church of ST. John the Evangelist on Fiji
teenth street yesterday.
The services were celebrated by Right
Rev. W. F. Nichols, D. D., Bishop of the
Episcopal Diocese Of California, assisted by
Rev DR.. E. B. Spalding and Rev. E. B.
Church. The musical service was rendered
by a vested choir Of boys under the direc-
ton of w. H. Holt, organist.
The new deacon is a graduate of Oberlin
College, Ohio, and for many years was an
active laborer in the ministry of the Con-
gregationalists.
Bishop Nichols began his discourse from
st. PauI's instruction to Timothy upon the
ordination of ministers, taking as the text
"Hold fast TO the mystery OF the faith with
a pure conscience"
ut was especially to the deacons, you
will remember" he said, chat these
words were first addressed. However
wide and real the application of them to
all Christians, we might urge, 1t is far from
our intention to narrow the meaning to
those to whom st. Paul originally sent
through Timothy this solemn charge.
Still it is of the first Importance that we do
not miss the significance of the fact that
the words do carry pointed direction to the
third order of the holy ministry-the
deaconate. The peculiar direction to hold
the mystery of the faith should help US to
better understand the duty and Just esti-
nation of that Office in the church of God.
ITO hold the mystery of the faith in
pure conscience is as much OF first essen
tial for a deacon's entrance upon his
proper work as a matter of simple honesty
with himself, and mental and moral to say
nothing of spiritual integrity of purpose,
as it is essential that an applicant for
pilots license has good eyesight and faith
in the charting of the surroundings of
the unseen deep Of the sea. The time to
settle the matter with the pilot is before
the license is issued, and the time to apply
the text for holy orders is jsut before the
apostle passes the threshold OF the minis
try.
''The church wants men of convictions
and courage. Whenever she has had any
thing to do with history, she has had to do
with such men as st. Paul. The light
broke in upon them and they knew. The
world wearies of men who don't know
The deacon must hold settled convictions
about the mystery Of the faith, and he with
such convictions settles in his conscience
all that is covered by the text, and if he
follows it he will be led down to the very
roots of human character. Conscience is
the silence of silence-the voice of God
speaking deeply to the soul.
IA ministry ever looking unto Jesus
with that piercing vision of conscience,
ever deepening in the sense of possession
of the truth, ever rightly holding and
rightly divining that truth till Jesus comes,
that is the ministry faithful unto death
that will receive the crown of life"
