LUNATIC'S DEATH AVENGED.
Two Brutal Keepers Sentenced to Years
ImprisOnmcnt

San Francisco. March 19-The long
church trial of Rev. c. o. Brown, the
Congregational minister, Is over, and
a verdict has been reached. The COM
mittee on findings declares Brown
guilty of conduct unbecoming Chris
tian minister. but exonerates him on the
charge of immortality.
The council excused DIR. Browns ac-
tions after the charges had been made
public on account of his quick temper
With regard to the young woman
whom. It is alleged, he threatened, the
council says: I'VE find his conduct to
have violated all rules which should
control the action of a gentleman and
Christian minister, and we censure him
for II. while we recognize the manly
words Of reparation offered by him to
the young lady in our presence"
The council says DR.. Browns explain
alton of the payment of money to Mrs
Davidson Is unsatisfactory, but there
is not a trace of suspicion in the minds
of the council concerning the hitherto
stainless reputation Of DR.. Brown.
Brown and his friends say they con-
slider the verdict complete vlndica-
ton. The pastors future Is still In
some doubt. Censure for unministerial
conduct may carry with 1t penalty.
Browns friends say II he has to give
up his church they will organize q new
one for him i'm this city.
