Less Trouble.

The bill to abolish the gold clause in
notes and mortgages is a very astute
move. If it becomes law the lender
will simply charge the borrower what he
deems reasonable premium of insurance
against payment in coin worth less than
gold. Perhaps if the legislature would
just pass law that the lender must al
ways accept the borrowers terms it
would accomplish the object sought with
less trouble. Chicago News.

CRUSHED UNDER
A CAbLE-CAR
Serious Accident to A. G.
Mass, a Deputy
Assessor.
Knocked Off His Bicycle by a
Haight.Street Car Without
Warning.
He Sustained a Fracture of the Spine
and Contusions on the Head
and Shoulder.

A. G. Mass. deputy in the Assessor s
office, living at 1907 Golden Gate avenue,
met with an accident yesterday morning
that will in all probability make him an
invalid for the remainder of his life
He is an ardent bicycllst and was riding
on the cartrack along Market street to the
ferry to catch the 10 o'clock boat for Oak
land.
After passing Steuart street there was a
Castro-street car in front of him, and as
he had ten minutes to spare before the
boat left he rode leisurely behind the car.
Unknown 10 him Haight-street car No.
l46 was following close behind him. The
cars before approaching East street slacken
their speed, as a rule, and Mass had no
thought of the danger lurking behind him.
Just before reaching East street the
Halght-street car, without any warning,
struck Mass bicycle and knocked him
off. He fell on his face in the center OF
the track, and before the gripman, who at
once applied the brakes, could stop it, the
front of the car had passed over Mass and
the fender rested upon his back.
There was rush made for the car by
people who were walking on the side
walks, and the passengers, gripman and
conductor jumped off and pushed the car
back off the PROSTATE form OF Mass. He
was dragged out in an unconscious condi-
ton and tenderly carried to a store
close at hand. The ambulance was sum-
moned and he was taken to the Receiying o
Hospital, where he soon recovered CON
sciousness.
DR.. Weil found that Mass lower limbs
were paralyzed, caused by a fracture of
the spine, and his right shoulder and head
were confused. Last evening he was re-
moved TO the German Hospital, where an
operation will likely be performed, as a
last resort, to save him from permanently
losing the use of his lower limbs,
Mass is a comparatively young man and
lived with his parents. Speaking of the
accident he said: ''rhere was Castro
street car in front of me as | passed
Steuart street and all my attention was
occupied in watching it, as it might stop
at anv second and 1 did not want TO run
into it, l preferred to follow leisurely
behind it as l had ten minutes at nv dis
posal.
"I was not aware that Haight-street
car was following close behind me and l
suppose 1t kept crawling up to me. did
not hear any bell ringing behind me-
when suddenly l was Knocked off nv BIZ
cycle and then all was blank until
found myself in the hospital.
"a young man who took care of nv
bicycle called at the hospital ana told me
the car that struck me was No. 146 of the
Haight-street line and that he noticed
the gripman talking to a passenger on
the dunn my Just before 1 was struck. If
the gripman had been looking ahead, as
he ought to have been, he would have
rung his bell and l would have got off the

Star Fell as the
Trumpet Sounded

DR.. Hemphill delivered sermon in
Calvary Presbyterian Church last evening
on the topic, "Apocalyptic Visions in the
Light of Present European Complica-
tions." He said:
The seer of Patmos heard seven trum D.
cts sounding. -Four have reference to the
Roman Empire and three to things more
modern. The last three are called the
woe trumpets. With the sounding of the
first woe trumpeta a star fell. Moham med
was that-a falling star-the principally
of Mecca, his by birth, belonging to an
other. A key was given TO him and he
opened the bottomless pit, and out of it
came smoke and locusts and lions, and
horses and scorpions. Arabia is the origi-
nal home of the locust, the horse, the
lion and the scorpion. The symbolism is
all Arabian. And from Arabia the fol-
lowers of Mohammed came, countless as
locusts, mounted on horses, fierce as
lions, with a scorpion, like venom for all
Christians, with faces like men and long
hair like women.
Power was given to torment men five
months'-that is, $50 years of actual time.

generally on repentance, sin and the
teachings OF the church.
There are several ways for people to
become BETTER" said the speaker, Several
wavs for them to learn of the existenc 9
of God and the way of light. First there
is the voice of God in the human soul, and
this we call reason; then God presents
himself to the soul by his messengers, or
priests, in sermuns-and there are object
lessons like the imposing ceremoniais of
the church"
The speaker held that there are, in a
way, saints and sinners in the church
some good, some bad-the good are not
good absolutely, but relatively so.''
A striking part of the sermon was the
con clusion, wherein the speaker treated
of the duty OF torgetfuiness regarding past
sins.
Life is too busy, too full of cares for US
TO lose time looking back over evils that
are passed and atoned for.
1--WE must not cry over errors that have
been remedied, for in these cases the war
is over. Duty says, Look ahead! The
future is the field, never again the past"

Feeding the Five
Thousand Hungry

II. j. Calls of A. NJ. E. Zion Church
selected as the text for his sermon last
evening the fourteenth verse sixteenth
chapter of Mathew. "But Jesus said unto
them, they need not depart, give ye them
to eat"
In part. Rev. Calls said:
"The food which the mass of the church
goers offer to the world is no better than
that which the world has, so the world
will not receive it. The fish and bread,
after passing through the hands of our
Lord and then from the disciples 10 the
people. was changed. Before they had
handled it it was nothing but com M on
fish and bread, but alter passing through
their hands it became divine. So our
Lord wants Us, as did his disciples, to
obey him and we will be able to feed the
world.
''If as disciples of oCr Lord we wish to
win the world we must hold out TO the
world something that is better than the
world has"

FIRST DAY OF CRICKET.
The Alameda and Golden Gate Elever
Opened the Season.

The Alameda and Golden Gate Elevens
Opened the Season.
The opening cricket match of the season
was played at Alameda yesterday, the
event being t'Ground VS.. Ground" The
perfect weather attracted quite crowd OF
spectators, and the field presented an un-
usually festive appearance. The cricket
was inevita ably rather slack owing to most
OF the men being entirely out of practice,
but there we're some very creditable per-
formances with both bat and ball.
The first side to bat was that from
Golden Gate W. ]. Robertson and Price,
who opened the innings, did most of the
scoring, none OF their successors reaching
double figures, and the entire total
reached was but SO.
The Alameda men did not do much bet
ter than their opponents, man for man,
and they clearly owed their victory to the
excellent batting OF +. Sewell. the new
Pacific captain. Hood and Hoyne both
showed something of their wonted skill.
w. Robertson boHled during the whole of
their innings and showed that his recent
accident has not impaired his skill as a
truudler.
Regarded generally, the play on both
sides gave promise of all-round improve
ment on that of last season.

Light Of Asia
or Life of Christ.


DR.. F. ]. Masters, who has spent ten
years in China, last evening delivered a
sermon upon 1.-The Light of Asia or the
Light of the World" He gave Buddhism
credit for teaching many beautiful truths
He admired Sakyamouni's doctrine of
universal brotherhood, the catholicity of
spirit that opposed the abominable caste
system of India and recognized the
brother in every garb and in every COM
munion. Some of the Buddhist sutras
glowed with an inspiration almost divine.
The sutra of fortY-two sections contained
truths as pure as the Sermon on the Mount
1t inculcated inward as well as outward
purity. 1t taught the forgiyeness of in
jury; to return good for evil; when smit-
ten be not angry; and it defined goodness
as the agreement of the will with the con.
science.
Another Buddhist doctrine was that of
Karma-the law of consequences. Every
thing was fixed by an eternal aDd mex
orable law of necessity. A man was be-
lieved to reap in this life exactly what he
had sown in former state of being and
no power in heaven or earth could reverse
his fate. The next point touched upon
was Sakyamouni's view of life. Until
Nirvana was reached there was no rest
II NAV take long, long kalpas of time to
wean a man from earth. Suicide only
prolongs the agony. The suicide would
come back into life in lower and more
bestial shape. No rest comes until the
Karma is all used up and the ascending
series of transformation are com pleted
and the clarified soul slips into Nirvana.
What a contrast is that sweet vision of
eternal life in Christ, and that sinless,
sorrowless imm ortalitv brought to life.
After reviewing these Oriental religions
DR.. Masters compared them with the reli-
gion of Christ.
