The Capsizing of Row boat Launches

An accident befell pleasure party yes
terday afternoon, between and o'clock,
off Quarry Cove, Angel Island. Charles
Lehman. aged % years. clerk in the
German Bank, and residing with his
parents at 1878 Twentieth street, was
drowned.
Lehman, his brother Chris, with their
sisters and many others, mum bering about
forty in all, boarded the yacht Valoo at
Long Bridge yesterday morning, and after
sailing about the bay, put into Quarry

ashore.
While the party was ashore four young

of visiting one of the yachts at anchor
near by. After making the visit they pro-
ceeded 10 return in their boat to the Valoo.
Three of the party had been seated in the
boat when Lehman jumped in-or, at

struck the side OF the boat, which he
seized, and in doing SO turned it on the
side and she commenced to fill and then
capsized, throwing all hands into the
water.

Better a Slave
Than Unemployed.

@OLONIZATION for the unemployed
I was the theme of Major W. w.
Winchel of the Salvation Army last
night at the Second Unitarian Church.
H. read as scripture lesson the sixty
first chapter of Isaiah, which deals with
the subject of colonization.
In opening his address the speaker i'm.
pressed upon his hearers how urgent was
The need for finding solution of the
problem OF the unemployed. He init
mated that if the evil were not remedled
by some rational plan devised by society
the misery from it would continue to
increase till violence, bloodsh ed and at
tempted revolution resulted.
To remove the unemployed to the
country and set them to making their liv-
ing from the soil he was satisfied would
prove an adequate remedy. He expected
the Salvation Army would soon have a
colony established near San Francisco.
By the time the Christian Endeavorers
meet here the colony will be an accom-
plished fact. AS soon as the sch me is
proved successful In a small way in Cali
fornia the army will establish an immense
colony in New Mexico where families by
the hundred thousand can find homes.

The Characters of
Esau and Jacob.

A T THE Olivet Congregational Church
- yesterday Rev. Ii. T. Shepard took
as his subject Jacob and Esau and
as his text Genesis xXv:2S: And Isaac
loved Esau because he d id eat of his venl-
son, but Rebecca loved Jacob" He said: /:
Jacob and Esau lived in an age when
the moral standard was very low in many
ways. To deceive and to cheat ones ene-
mics was considered righteous, and in
Isaac's life it seems to have been cons.d-
cred no very great wrong to lie TO
ones father and to defraud ones
ones brother of his legal inheritance. The
trouble in Isaac's family started In favor
itism and partiality. Rebecca favored Ja-
cob and taught him to deceive and oppress
Esau.
Isaac favored Esau, but his wife's
shrewdness was too much for him. Esau
was driven off to Edom as an outlaw and
a bandit, and Jacob was promoted to be
leader OF his people and crowned with
success and honor. Esau was a hunter
rough and wild in his tastes, but honest
and self-reliant. jacob was sly and am
bilious and very unscrupulous when
judged by modern standards.
I'VE see one reason for what seems to
have been GODS preference Tor Jacob in
that he loved civilization and represented
civilizing tendencies in Israel's national
life. He stood for the civilized home,
while Esau represented the unsettled ex-
lstence of the hunter. Jacobs life was
pastoral, but fast tending toward agricu J.
tural and urban settlement and stability.
Between Jacob and Esau the meaner man
trlumphed over the nobler one in matters

SPREADING THE LIGHT.
Lessons Of Love, Of Truth and of Piety
Preached From Many Pulpits.

A T THE First Baptist Church Rev.
~ NJ. +. Boyntons text was Luke
xiii :42-43-"And he said, Jesus, re-
mber me when thou comest into thy
kingdom. And he said unto him, Verify.
l say unto thee to-day shalt thou be with
me in Paradise" Mr.. Boynton said:
Lies last hour is last in more senses
than in point of time. Last in thought
and in purpose.
The last hour OF Jesus life was full of
manifestation of divinity. No coronation
OF king was ever so grand. In the
worlds sight it seemed an hour of defeat;
the cross sign of ignominy; the cry,
why mast thou forsaken mep' despair;
the shout, 1T is finished" retreat. How
deceived was the world The lifting OF the
cross was the raising of an emblem that
should shine in every cline, be seen in all
the earth and known as the mark of
hlgnest divinity and of most loving
fathe erhood.
The lament, "Has thou torsaken me-"
was the Interpretation OF GCd come down
10 bury the sins of all mankind The
shout, 'It is finished" the cry that has
echoed around the world and fingers as
halo about Gods throne. After his resur-
rection many said, "Rabboni, but In the

The world demanded that Christ should
come down from the cross to prove hun
self the son of God. He would do no such
sign, but would work a greater thing and
prove more eternally his Messiahship. He
would save, not himself, but another, and
one OF the most elegant trophies that
Christ took with him as an evidence OF
his mission fulfilled was the glorlfied be-
ing who entered the uplifted gates at his
side; who in the midst of the agony on
the cross had said, Lord, remem Der me-"

God Immanent
in His Universe.

KTlRAoLEs, and why they were doubt
gVs ed, was the subject OF Rev. William
RAIDERS sermon last night at the
Third Congregational Church.
The speaker explained what miracle
was by saying that four elements must
enter into 1t; it must be a wonder and a
work; it must be the result of power and
it must be sign.
The reason that rationalists doubt the
reality of the scripture miracles, he said,
was because OF q fundamental mistake
they make as to the relation of God TO the
material world.
He illustrated this by comparison of
the relations of clockmaker to the clock.
An uninstructed man might imagine the
clock was self-existent and maker and
mechanism one and inseparable-thisw was
panthesm. Another man might think of
the clock as having been made by one who
wound il up and then went away and left
it to run by itseIf-this was deism. An
other might conceive of the clock with a
maker who staid with it as its absolute
master, to suspend, hasten Or alter its
movements and mechanism at will-this
was theism. The preacher regarded God
as residing in the material universe as
the soul of man dweIls in his body.

HAmProN's FINAL REPORT.
Commissioner of Railroads Notes q
Steady Improvement in Earnings.

Washington, Nov. 10.-Genera1 Wade
Hampton who has just been succeeded
by General LOngstreet as commission
er of railways has submitted to the in
terror department his report for the
past fiscal year. He says that the year
marked the low water mark of railway
construction. During the year "a COM
panies, with 5.441 miles of road, passed
into the hands of the courts, and SO
others previously placed in receiverShip
were sold at foreclosure.
A steady improvement in railroad
earnings during the first six months of
the current year is noted, an improve
ment particularly apparent in the bond
aided Pacific railroads. The outlook in
the west generally for the present year
is reported very encouraging.
General Hampton, though discount
tenancing any attempt to criticiSe the
course of the government in the Union
Pacific matter, says he has always be-
HeVed that a settlement more advan-
tageOuS to the government could be OBJ
tained if all the companies, particular
ly the Union and Central Pacific, could
be negotiated with at the same time
through a commission to be appointed
by the president, and possibly all in the
same way, than by settling at different
times and on different basis. Govern
ment ownership or operating under
government supervision, he says would
be not only a doubtful, but a danger
Gus experiment, which probably would
result disastrously to the government.

FOR BLOCK SIGNALS.
Pneumatic-Automat System to Be
Placed on the Entire New
York Division.

Philadelphia, Nov. 1O.-The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad company will soon place
block signalling on the New York di-
vision between HoImesburg Junction
and Monmouth Junction. When the
work is completed the line from this city
to New York will be under this sys-
tenn, as it is now in operation between
Jersey City and Monmouth junction
and between HoImesburg Junction and
Philadelphia.
The power house which supplies the
air to work the switches between Phil
adelphia and Holmesburg Junction is
situated at the latter place, and it is
said that it has enough power to do the
work as far as Trenton and farther if
desired. Where the new power house
will be situated has not been decided,
between Monmouth Junction and TFen-
ton.
