October 9th. Meeting wit h
elder George Q. Cannon, who was
publishing a paper in San Fran
cisco and presiding over the Cali
fornia Mission, he at once called
the elders together at his house
and held little conference or
council meeting, where il was
decided that elder d. p. Rainy
preside over the San Francisco
conference and that the elders who
were going to the Sandwich Islands
visit the various branches Of the
Church and preach, until they
could procure their outfits anG. not

Francisco TO obtain passage on
some vessel, but found that none
would sail for several days. Prest.
Cannon called a council meeting
where it was decided that elder
Rainy and I should visit all the
Sectarian Priests in the city and
strive to get them to believe our
testimony and ask for the Privilege
to preace in their Churches, and if
we were refused, to tell them we
wauld visit their focks and teach
them the truth, &c. The next
morning we set out to FIJI cur mis-
sion. Some of the clergy we could
not find. However we found two,
"a Mr.. Briefly and a Mr.. Thomas.
Briefly treated us very we'll and
invited us to give him another call,
but he said as we were about to
leave, ~ do not wish you any

Thomas was bitter and justified
McLane in the strongest terms for
killing Farley P. Pratt and said,
"7he example Of abraham is no
erGmple for me TO 90 by." He
utterly refused to hear us or let us
preach in his chnrch. We, how
ever, bore our testimony to the
latterday work and that Joseph
Smith and Brigham Young were
good men and servants of God. &c
We invited these clergy to come
to our Hall and preach as there
were quite number of Mormons
living in the city, and, if he could

the Elders who were lacking any
of the above articles left an order
for the same with the President.
After meeting Prest. Kimball, we
took dinner, and then went to the
photograph gallery and the group
of Elders with the President and
his clerks was taken.
Returning to the hotel, we took
an electric car to Lookout Noun
tain and assembled it byImeans of the
incline cable railway, which is three
fourths of a mile in length. The
car is drawn up the incline by means
of two wire cables and a drum, pro-
PEELED by stationary steam engine.
There are two cars, one ascending
while the other decends. About
half way up the incline the cars pass
each other on switch, or loop in
the track. The switching is done
automatically by means of the cab
les running over pulleys which di-
rect the course of the cars as they
pass each other at the loop. 1t
fairly makes the hair on ones head
stand on end, as he shoots up the
mountain side at an angle of half
pitch, and we are glad when we set
foot safely on the ground at the
station above. We here learned that
the cables have each been put to an
actual test of many tons drawing
capacity (far beyond the weight of
the car when loaded), and should
either cable give or slip six inches,
it would cause self adjusting Crap
pie to firmly fasten itself on the
track beneath and thus secure the
cars, so there is practically little OF
no danger of an accident from a
runaway car.
On the top of the mountain is a
handsome hotel, and stands where
confectionery, fruit, and souvenirs
are sold. After viewing the latter
we were shown the principal places
OF interest on the mountain by a
