its furnishings.
Upholstered pews are tabooed in the
Church of the New Jerusalem. The attend

generations ago, and each is provided with
braided mat.
The light streams upon the preacher
from an oval stained-glass window, repre-
senting dove resting upon baptismal
font, the gift of Bruce Porter.
Rarest of the factors that go to make up
the artistic interior is q small window at
the left of the organ. Through this long.
narrow window, with its tiny panes,
loaded centuries ago. the light streamed
upon tom bs of the iilustrious in Westmin-
ster Abbey. The window, valuable be-
cause Of the saoredness of its associations,
came into the possession of Bruce Porter,
and he, believing it could have no more
honorable place, presented it to the little
church on Lyon street.
Notwithstanding the small church men,
bership the artistic little place of worship is
filled every Sabbath. Yesterday morning
there was scarcely space enough to accom-
modate the audience.
Mr.. Worcester's discourse might be
styled paraphrase of his text: "He
causeth the grass to grow for the cattle,
and herb for the service of man, that he
may bring forth out of the earth; and
wine that maketh glad the heart of man,
and oil to make his face shine, and bread
which strengtheneth mans heart"

men were placed under arrest by Captain
Houdlette and turned over to the authori-

The men claim that they had Just come

did not really refuse TO do the work, but
were considering the matter when placed

The British ship Bardowie, loaded and
nearly ready for sea, dragged her anchor
yesterday morning and fouled the Italian
ship Salvador Ciampa, also loaded and
ready for sea. The Bardowie was hove too
short on her cable and the anchor could
not hold her in the swift tide. She had
her davits bent, her rail and two shrouds
carried away. The Clamps had her bow
spirit shrouds and jibboom-guys carried
away. Her anchor-fuke caught in an open
port of the Bardowie and the chain was un-
shackled, leaving it hanging where it had
caught. Several tugs went to the assist
ance of the two vessels and they were
finally separated.

AGAINST THE PESTHOUSE.
The Castro Club Makes Vigorous Pro,
test Against Moving 1T.


The Castro Club met last night in Twin
Peaks Hall. T. w. Merrill acted as secre-
tary and ]. ]. Smith presided. The follow
ing resolutions, which are to be presented
to the Supervisors, were adopted:
Resogved, II the Supervisors shall so forget
their plain duty as to put the Pesthouse on the
Almshouse tract that we shall hold them as
opposers of our neighborhood and keep them
always in our memories as betrayers of their
trusts
Resolved, That the building of such an insti-
tuition in the geographical center of this City
is q sin against decency and meets with our
unqualified condemnation, and we want our
City officials to understand our disgust at their
lack of common-sense and business tact shown
in the considering of such site. If they must
have central place we Suggest the Fair lot on
Mob Hill is an appropriate one, commanding a
magnificent view, handy to the banks and
hotels and easily reached by the streetcars.
RESOLVED, That some place should be selected
for pesthouse outside of the line of business
and residence development, and IN no sense
can this be said OF the Almshouse tract. 1t is
clear that, with the opening of new electric
lines, this tract will In the course of ten years,
be surrounded with the homes of our people,
and we think 1t a shame that such pool OF
filth, to which pesthouse may be compared,
should be deliberately made to tester across
the path Of progress.

their fiber and solid wood largely for his
home and innumera comforts.
Plants form large part OF the environ
ment of man. The beautiful things of
this world are manifestations of God. The
fact that pleasure is derived from these
manifestations is proof of the divine or
igin of man.
"If the mind be ready to receive the
truth the gentle affections thrive. But if
instead of such fertility the ground be
sterile from selhshness the gentle senti-
menus wither and die.
but not only may the mind be COM
pared to the fields, but to the herbs that
grow thereon, the herbs that depend upon
the sunshine and rain and soil for their
food, not the poison, of the world.
THE oil to make his face to shine has
a parallel in the kindliness of soul that
illuminates the face. The eyes may shine
with intelligence, but the face shines with
kindness. With such oil may every face
and life be made the brighter.
1.-THE truth of Gods providence may be
shut out from the heart as seed may be
prevented from sinking into the ground
because OF the stoniness. For the quality
OF the soil of our natures we are not re-
sponsible, but we are accountable for it's
cultivation. Stones are the hard facts of
the world that are prone to cover the soil
OF our spiritual nature. 1t is our duty TO
remove these stones and pull up the chok-
ing weeds springing between them. The
soil may be sown with good thoughts that
shall be carefully sustained. Flowers the
blossoms of right living and thinking, will
then spring up about us. Yet we must
not linger among the flowers, but take our
place among the harder grains, lives bear
ing their responsibilities of creating and
maintaining public sentiment, strong and

FAD5 IN MEDICINE.

There are fads in medicine as in
