In the way OF practical relief for ell
disadvantages and all woes the only voice
that is worth listening to on this subject is
the voice of Christianity, which Is the voice
OF Almighty God. Whether have men,
toned the particular disadvantage under
which you labor or not, distinctly de-
clare, In the name OF my God, that here is
way out and way up for all OF you. You
cannot be any worse off than that Christian
young woman who was in the Pemberton
mills when they fell some years ago, and
from under the fallen timbers she was heard
singing, 81 am going home to die no
more"
Take good courage from that Bible, all
OF whose promises are for those in bad pre-
dicament. There are better days for you,
either Oh earth or in heaven. I put my
hand under your chin and lift your face
into the coming dawn. Have God on your
side, and then you have for reserve troops
nil the armies OF heaven. the smallest'com-
pany OF which is 10000 cbariots and the
smallest brigade $4,000, the lightnings OF
heaven their drawn sword.
Anancient warrior saw an overpower1ng
host come down upon his small company
OF armed men, and mountirg & his horse he
threw a handful Of sand in che air, crying,
"Let their faces be covered with eonfu.
sior." And both armies heard His voice,
and history says IL Seemeu dS tuouSn tHe
dust thrown in the air had become SC
rlany angels Of supernatural deliverance,
and the weak overcame the mighty, and
the immense host fell back, and the small
number matched on. Have faith in
God, and, though all the allied forces Of
encouragement seem to come against
YOU in battle array. and their laugh Of
defiance and contempt resounds through
all the valleys and mountains, you might
by faith in God and importunate prayer
pick up handful of the very dust Of your
humiliation and throw it into the air, and
it shall become angels Of victory over all
the armies Of earth and hell. The voices
of your adversaries, human and satanic,
shall be covered with confusion, while you
shall be not only conqueror, but more thai
conqueror, through that grace which hal
90 often made the fallen helmet Of On over,
thrown antagonist the footstool Of q Chris
tian victory.

Renewal of the Strife for the
Late Eden Valley Priests
Property.
Bay Officials Are Holding Posses
sion Of the Large Estate
by Force.

UKIAH, CAL, May 2S.-Edwin Smith,
who has been appointed to take charge OF
the estate of the late Father Peter ].
Jeram, in Eden Valley, by Public Admin
istrator ]. II. Barker OF this county, re-
turned from the colony this morning. He
reported that he was ordered off the ranch
by the agent of the Public Administrator
OF the City and County of San Francisco.
and was forced to leave.
Petitions for letters OF ad ministration
on Father Jeram's estate Lad been filed in
the Superior Court of botn this and San
Francisco counties, and in both cases let
ters were issued-iu the former court to
the Public Administrator of this county
and in San Francisco TO A. G. Freese.
Appeals have been taken by the respective
parties, and while the matter is pending
in the Supreme Court each is struggling
for supremacy. This latest move on the
part of the Freese people will. it is thought,
cause them to be cited TO appear Tor con-
tempt.
Administrator Barker is at present at
San Francisco, and matters will rest until
his return tomorrow.
The property for which the two coun-
ties are striving is valued at upward OF
$50, 900. 1t includes thousands of acres of
land and large herds. The estate, al
though purchased by the 500 colon1sts
whom Father Jeram induced 10 settle in
CO. operation colony scheme proyel to be a
failure, was all recorded in the dead
priests name. The officials of both San
Francisco and Mendocino counties con-
tend that Jeram was resident OF their
respective jurisdictions.

KccAULEYS CASE At TACOMA.
The Ex- Treasurer Again Under Arrest
Pending Inquiry into the Value
of HIS Bonds

TACOMA, WASH, May % -Ex- City
Treasurer J. w. McCauley is under arrest
again by authority of an order OF the
Supreme Court. which directs the Supe-
rior Court TO inquire into the sutficiency
OF his $4,000 appeal bond.
The Supreme Court few days ago
affirmed McCauley's sen .ence OF four years
in the penitentiary after his conviction OF
having received interest on deposits of
city money while he was Treasurer two
years ago. Last evening Prosecuting At
torney Titlow made an affidavit alleging
that he had been informed that the bond
of McCaniey had become impaired and
insufficient and asking that a bench war
rant be issued and McCauley brought in
by the Sheriff.
To-day McCauley's attorneys made a
hard fight against any inquiry by the
Superior Court, claiming that under the
statute such action could be taken only
before the Supreme Court. They alleged,
also, that his three bondsmen, one of
whom is Mrs. McCauley, have disposed of
no property and that they are worth as
much now as when the bond was given.
This afternoon Judge Kean decided
there was no occasion for McCaulev's de-
iention and he was permitted to go. In
the. meantime Prosecutor Titlow rushed
over to Olympia, presented the matter to
the Supreme Court and secured an or er
requiring the Superior Court to inquire
into the sufficiency of the bond.
McCauley gave himself up. He intend DIS
appealing to the Federal Supreme Court.

PORTLAND c0NSpl2AIORS CAUGHT
Secret Service Officers Frustrate a cevsr
Fiot to Rob the CITY
P0sfnHfce

PORTLAND, Or, May 2S.-Jnlian Ep-
ping. chief OF the registry department OF
the Portland postoffice, was arrested this
afternoon on charge of conspiracy TO
rob the office. Later Detective G. w.
Holsappie. City Jailer Charles Watson.
Deputy Sheriff George Watson. Eugene
Gautier (alias Frank Halll a notorious
Chinese certificate forger, and ]. H.
Stensen, worthless character, were ar.
rested as Epping's accom- pices.
Suspicion had rested upon Epping for
some time, and several postoffiee inspec-
tors had been shadowing him incognito.
This morning Epping was explaining the
plans of the robbery to one of his con-
federates, ignorant that an inspector was
listening to him. The plan was that the
others should, after they had robbed the
office, gag him with handkerchief bear
ing certain initial, so as to throw the
authorities off the track. Holsapple was
to make arrests of suspects, and for his
share OF the work he was TO get one-flfth
of the gross proceeds. That is the story
coming from an authentic source, but 1t
may develop that the detective was in
the play to upset the plot, which, had IT
succeeded, might have cost Uncle Sam
from $l0,0 900 to $4,000
The alleged conspiracy was worked up
by Inspector Thrail of the postoffice secret
service. He has been in Portland for
some time. When seen this evening he
said that so astonishing were the revela-
tions that he 1elt that the public would be
shocked and even incredulous until a
conviction followed, which he felt conf
dent would be the result of the trials.
