Those who urge a reform in the con-
sular service and the retention of officials
at their posts no matter what the change

After the depression of the last few
years It Is not surprising that a bank here

doors. but when an institution loans al
most it's entire capital on one security. as
the National Bank or Illinois appears to
have done. 1t cannot be expected there
will be smooth sailing.

DR.. WILBOR'S
COMPOUND OF
PURE COD LIVER OIL
WITH PHOSPHATES.

DR.. Wilbor's Cod-Liver Oil and Phos-
pilates has now been before the public
forty years, and has steadily grown in
favor and appreciation. This could not be
the case unless the preparation was of
high intrinsic value. The com bination of
the phosphates with pure Cod Liver: Oil,
as prepared by DR.. Wilbor, has produced
a new phase in the treatment of consump-
ton and all diseases of the lungs. This
article can be taken by the most delicate
invalid without creating the disgusting
nausea which is such an objection to the
Cou-Liver Oil when taken without the
phosphate. 1t is prescribed by the regular
faculty. DR.. Wilbors Emulsion cures
consumption, coughs, colds, bronchitis.

BISHOP DUBs.
He Preached Sermon in Grace Metho-
dist Episcopal Church the
Testimony of Christ.

Testimony of Christ.
Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, at
Twenty-tirst and Capp streets, was filled
to its utmost last evening by congrega-
tion assem- bled to listen to a sermon by
Bishop r. Dubs, D. D., of the United
Evangelical Church.
The Bishop is man Of medium height
inclined to stoutness, and has pleasant
intelligent face. His hair and beard are
almost white. He Is forcible and elo-
auent speaker.
His sermon, which was listened to with
profound attention, was on the testimony
of Christ. He told of the great truths
that are advanced by the teachers who are
working in the cause of Christ and whose
mission is to teach that there is salvation
for those who lead a good Christian life.
He dwelt at some length upon the class
that expresses itself against belief in
Christ and in hereafter, and by num-
Der of well-told anecdotes proved that
while there is no danger they continue to
maintain the views they express, in
times of danger they retract and cali upon
Christ to save them. He also spoke of the
various methods of worship, and said that
no matter what the form is the finger of
each points to Calvary.
The Bishop,who has been forty-one years
in the ministry, has made flying visit to
this City. He arrived here on Friday and
left for Chicago, his home, this morning.

and over the Hebrew Orphan Asylum in
respect to the memory of the late Baron
de Hirsch, whose death was announced in
The CALL few days since.
Yesterday morning the general commit
tee of the Grand Lodge Independent Order
B'nai B 'rith held meeting in the grand

preliminary steps in the matter of holding
a memorial service. There were present
E. l. Wolfe, grand president; M. P. Stein.
first vice-grand president; Edward Bare,
second vice-president; b. Harris, grand
treasurer; Jacob Levison. grand secretary;
M. Marcuse. Simon Hochstadter, Louis
Cohn and Abram Jones, past grand presi.
dents.
After some discussion it was decided
that there should be a memorial service;
that there should be an address by the
grand president, E. 1. Wolfe; an grafton
by Edmund Tausky, grand orator; adj
dresses by clergymen of different denomi-
nations and music by choir to be selected
from among the singers in the different
churches of this City. 1t was also decided
that there should be a service in this City
IN which all the lodges of the order shall
take part and that the lodges in the inte-
rior shall hold services in their respective
localities
The following preamble presented by
Grand President Wolfe was adopted and a
copy ordered sent to each lodge:
WHEREAS, In the death of Baron Maurice Won
Hirsch the entire Jewish community of the
whole civilized world has suffered an lrrepar-
able loss, and in order that proper expression
may be given of our feelings, ana as token OF
respect to the memory OF the departed, be 1t
Resolued, That District Grand Lodge No. 4.
Independent Order of B'nai Birth, repre-

the Pacific Coast do invite all the lodges in
the City of San Francisco to meet IN B'aal
Birth Hall, 121 Eddy street, on Thursday,
May 21, at P. NJ, to participate In memorial

Resolued, That the president of each lodge in
San Francisco be invited TO meet with the gen.
eral committee in the office OF its secretary at
10 A. M. on Sunday, May 8, 1896, to make suit
able arrangements.
Rcsotued That the grand secretary COM

Man Must Be Judged by ne Works
of His Earthly Liz.
The pulpit of the Howard Presbyterian
Church was occupied by the Rev. DR.. J..
Cumming Smith at the evening service.
In his discourse the speaker impressed
upon his hearers his abiding faith in the
inspiration of the word of God as re-
vealed through the agency of man.
All of the inspired writings bore on
their faces the i'm print of truth and the
divinity of Jesus Christ. And the man
who does not accept the word of God as
laid down in Holy Writ will have hard
time to get into heaven.
mo man. he said, .'can drift into the king
dom of God by chance or strategy. He must go
there as a man and upon the record OF his life.
A sudden change of heart at the hour of death
will not be sufficient. Man is the same being
when about to die that he was in the prime of
health, and if he does not receive the spirit of
God and the teachings of Christ during his
lifetime q fear of death accompanied by sud-
den conversion will not do to take chances
upon of drifting I'M to heaven under the pre-
tense of not knowing better
"a man to be q good Christian must be frank,
manly and straightforward. Christ possessed
all of those manly qualities when on earth,
and in his dealings with his fellOw-men, and so
must his followers now do likewise.

DIR. Slmms, who made this extraordi-
nary statement, was at one time resident
of this City and well known as a physiog-
nomist, but now his permanent home is in
New York. He has travelled three times
around the world and is a collector of
curios and a student of all that is odd in
people and things. He spent three years
in Australasia, and while there secured
many oddities, a portion of which he has
do mated to the museum. The string of
money is one of these.
Miss Oxnard has donated two very odd
silver dressplns used by the women of AL
geria.
Louis Sarony of this City has presented
letter dated Philadelphia, December Is,
l196, and written by Robert Morris, one of
the signers of the Declaration of Independ-
ence, and also two documents granting
vessels the right to enter certain ports.
One is signed by Thomas Jefferson az
President and James Madison as Secre.
tary OF State, and the other by James
Monroe as President and Jonn Quincy
Adams as Secretary of State.

There was some disappointment expert
enced by visitors to the park because there
was no music, and many who were thus
disappointed went to the ocean beach.
There they found music. athletic feats by
japanese and swimming contests for
prizes.
There was a great crowd at the Haight-
street grounds to watch Miss Essie Viola
make balloon ascension attired in
bloomer costume. The young lady made
very pretty ascent moving eastward,
and coming down by parachute on one OF
the streets near the end of the panhandle
OF the park.
This was her fourth ascent from these
grounds and each was successful. Miss
Leona Adair, her sister, will take trip

Mayor Sutro was at his home in Sutro

off and go to Washington.
