PACIFIC GROVES SCHOOL.
Need of More General Observance of
the Sabbath Urged by Christian
Men and Women

PACIFIC GROVE, CAL, June 27.-The
morning session of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union School of Methods was
devoted to the department of Sabbath
observance. Rev. M. @. Briggs, DID,, oil
San Jose, Rev. N. r. Johnston of Oakland,
Rev. John KimbalI of San Francisco, Rev.
Mr.. Kyle of Salinas and Rev. Mr.. Peck
we're present from the Sabbath Asso.
citation.
Mrs. Sturtevant Peet delivered the open.
ing address. emphasizing the point that
Sabbath desecration led to criminality.
Mrs. Christine Armstrong presented an
impre7 siye paper, entitled 1.-The Sabbath
Was Made for Man." Rev. Mr.. Kyle dis
cussed the question from the standpoint
of physical considerations alone, claiming
that more and better work could be ex-
pected from man and beast when one day s
rest was given in each week, and that man
would derive incalculabIe benefit, morally
and physically, from the weekly day OF
worship.
Rev. N. r. Johnston spoke on the duty
of the church to the Sabbath. The church
was the teacher of the people, and to it be-
longed the responsibility of teaching in
and legislators was not alone to do the
will of the people, but the higher duty
the will of God.
DIR. Briggs held that the whole Sabbath
question was embodied in the law of love
as taught by the Savior, declaring that he
who broke the fourth commandment broke
the whole decalogue.
He demanded of Christian people more
sacrifices for the sanctity of the Sabbath :
more self-denial and less self-indulgence
more responsibility for their own prac.
tices and example.
Mrs. Mary Frank Brown narrated some
striking instances of mistaken efforts
which had resulted in valuable lessons in
Sabbath observance. Mrs. Eyster, Mrs.
Cove and Mrs. Greene engaged in gen.
eral discussion of how far Sunday travel
ing was justified.
A reception at the Ell Carmelo was ten

LOS ANGELES, Gail, June 27.-The at
tempted robbery of the First National
Bank is still the topic of conversation.
Numerous residents on Commercial street
state that they were Watching the move
ments OF the detectives night after night,
so it is no wonder that the attempted rob-
berry was made public property The true
reason why the robbers gave up the job
was that they believed the vault extended
to the floor of the cellar, instead of rest
ing on the arch. When they discovered
their mistake they quit.
1t is stated upon good authority that J.
Stevens, the man now in custody on sus-
picion of being implicated in the at
tempted robbery, has been confined to his
bed for the past two months from the ef-
fects of an operation. It is believed he
will be released when the evidence is heard.

WILL KEEP HER BABES.
Mrs. Forbes Is AtcGrded the Custody of
Her OfsDri,l0,

LOS ANGELES, CAL, June 27.-Judge
Clark to-day awarded Mrs. Forbes the
custody of her two children. The woman's
mother, Mrs. Scott, and the latter's
brother had attempted to secure the
guardianship of the children, claiming
that Mrs. Forbes was an unsuitable person
to have charge of them. The mother said
that she had repeatedly seen Mrs. Forbes
sitting in the lap of ]. Quigley, hugging
and kissing him. The latter admitted al
this, but denied that anything improper
had occurred.
Judge Clarke decided that these little in
discretions were not of such nature as to
prove that the morals of the children
would be injured by their being in the
custody of the mother.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, June 27.-The
prospects for the coming years orange
crop are exceedingly bright, and several
leading commission merchants and fruit
men have said that it is likely to be larger
than usual. In many parts of the citrus
belt the trees are blooming more pro-
fuse1y than has been the case in twelve
years. There has been more dropping of
fruit than usual at this time of year; on
the contrary the percentage which re-
mains on the trees is greater. The drop
ping is always large when the crop is big
one. Mediterranean sweets and navels
are the greatest sufferers. This rather un-
usual condition has been caused by the
extremes of the weather which have
occurred during the last six months.

some of their crack players were detained

Hold Ups.
CHICAGO, ILL, June q. - The thir-
teenth of series of hold-ups which have
been taking place here at regular intervals
for the past few weeks was accomplished
this evening within a half-block of the
Harrison street police station and the
police are still looking for the men who so
openly defy them. The same tactics were
used as in the other twelve cases.
Two men at 10 o'clock tonight entered
the shoestore OF A. Rupert, at 166 Harri-
son street, and with two revolvers each
compelled the cashier to empty his cash
drawer and hand out its contents. Fortu-
nately the days receipts were in the vault,
and only $50 was secured by the robbers.
AS soon as the two men got possession OF
their plunder they ran out and down an
alley, and their whereabouts is at present
unknown. The description OF the men
tallies with that of the men who have
been Systematically robbing stores for the
