entail passionate has seen him either per-
sonally or pictorially. All that is known
of him is that he is an accomplished
preacher who has accepted the unanimous
call of the congregation and has resigned
from his Charlestown church, near Boston.
The successor to DR.. ]. K. Mclean will
come to this city under very interesting
circumstances.
The trip will in reality be his honey
moon, as he will leave the day after his
marriage. The wedding will take place in
the Winthrop Church, of which he has
been pastor for four years next Wednes-
day. The bride is Miss Alice Tufts, who
has lived all her life in Charlestown ard
who is beloved and respected by her vast
acquaintance. She comes of the old Tufts
family of Kew England that founded
Tufts College. near Boston. Her father is
treasurer of the Warren Bank, and Miss
Tufts is,a graduate of Radcliffe College.
Thursday next Mr.. aud Mrs. Brown
will leave Boston and will reach Oakland
IN time for the pastor to occupy his new
pulpit on the first Sunday in October.
Rev. Charles Reynolds Brown Is a native
of West Virginia and is now thirty four
years of age. He graduated from Wash
ington (Iowa) College and was awarded
the degree of a. 3. at Iowa University in
1883.
During his course at the university he
began the study of shorthand. In De-
cember, 1888, he removed to Davenport,
Iowa, where he entered the law Offices OF
Davidson & Lane.
In the summer of 1885 he abandoned
law and entered an insurance company's
Office in Des Moines, in order that he
might save money to carry him through
the seminary. In September, 1885, he en-
tered the theological school of Boston
University and on the day after he deliv-
cred his graduating address he was ap-
pointed pastor of Wesley Chapel NJ. Z.
Church in Cincinnati.
There he remained until 1892, when he
abandoned Methodism, accepted the call
of Winthrop Church, Charlestown dis
trict and on Septem Der 20, 1892. was or
dained as a Congregational minister and
installed as pastor. He has done great
work while there, and has established an
excellent reputation for himself as pastor
and preacher. The congregation steadily
increased during his ministry, and his
helpful influence in the community was
appreciated by all classes of citizens.
During his four years at Charlestown
Mr.. Brown received 221 new members into
his church, and the firm place he held in
the hearts of his congregation is evidenced
by their genuine sorrow at his resignation.

Browns congregation at Winthrop
Church, received to-day, occurs the fol.
"a fhunderbolt from a clear sky would
have caused but little more surprise to the
congregation of Winthrop Church last
Sunday than the announcement by Rev.
Charles r. Brown, the brilliant and es-
teemed young pastor, that he intended to
sever his connection with the church
wherin he was ordained four years ago
and with whose people he has labored
earnestly and faithfully ever since.

OAKLAND, CAL, Sept. 1.-THE test Of
streetcar tenders to-day on Washington
street attracted quite a crowd, among
which Mayor Davie and several Council
men appeared. as well as streetcar men
and others interested.
George Risch Muller, the San Francisco
inventor, has a framework with rope
net which would pick up anything from q
cat TO a horse and buggy. It is so ar
ranged that if a PROSTATE body Is hit the
let is lifted SO as to pass over it, but in SO
doing a smaller apron under the car is
dropped and scoops up the body. 1t is
an impossibility for body to get under
the wheels with this apparatus in use.
The scoop was set in to-day's trials for a
track that is above the street level, as in
suburban traffic, it having been tried at
Elmhurst. In the city, where the pave
ment is level with the rail, it has to be set
a couple of inches higher TO correspond to

which Rev. Mr.. Brown received from a
Maiden congregation a year or more ago.
the majority of his people were inclined
to the opinion that he would serve in the
local ministry for some time to come.
Mr.. Brown is not one who jumps
hastily at any straw which may blow his
way He readily appreciates the value of
friendly counsel and how to put it to good
personal use. 1t was, therefore, after due
consideration and mature reflection that
be decided to accept a call to the First
Congregational Church of Oakland, CAL,
which is the largest church on the Pacific
Slope, and ranks seventh in the large
churches of the Congregational denomina-
ton. Although IN receipt OF the call
some little time, and being present in per-
son at the regular Friday night meeting,
he did not consider it best to make any
announcement of the fact until Sunday,
and in consequence the surprise to the
congregation was all the more complete.
There was no attempt at dramatic
parting in the reading of the letter. 1t
was clear, straightforward statement Of
his position and his intentions, full of sim
cere and affectionate regard for his people
ana showing great sauness az nlS AoOee-
sary departure for other fields of labor. It
was evident that it was hard task to him
to read the letter, because of the pleasant
relations which have always existed be-
tween him and the people of Winthrop
Church, yet there was happiness underly-
ing all sentiment in the fact that he was
going to greater vineyards where an OPP
portunity for greater work was before
him. There was an absolute hush through
out the church during the reading of the
letter, and it was apparent that all were
eagerly listening to every word"

OAKLAND, CAL, Sept. 1.-THE gem

in this city is that the decision of the
Supreme Court regarding the term of
offices in San Francisco has vacated the
term of City Justices ]. ]. Allen aud T. ".
Wood at the end of this year, and that as
a consequence there must be nominations
made at the coming county conventions.
The Supervisors will undoubtedly in
clude in the call for the general election
the City Justices, and this will give the
Socumbents the opportunity 70 bring in
juncsion proceedings 10 prevent the
names from being placed on the ticket.
In case this is not done those nominated
at the conventions or those who choose to
run independently would bring suit to
have their names placed on the ticket.
The Superior Court would pass on the
issue in time for election, but it would
then go to the Supreme Court.
