 TANSIE REDS LETTER.
Charles Kitchen Caught While Try ing to Take It From the Post
 office Registry Department.

Charles Kitchen, habitue of the Bar bary Coast, was arrested yesterday by Postal Inspectors Munro and Erwin for intercepting a letter belonging to Tansie Red colored man residing at 43S Broad way. Red and the prisoner are friends, and Kitchen became acquainted with the fact that Red had a motheS residing in Kansas City, Neb., who was sending him small sums of money by registered letter.
 Kitchen intercepted the letter carrier near Reds house last Wednesday, and by representing himself to be Red received the official notice that registered letter was awaiting Red in the postoftice. Washington street. The registry clerk refused to give the letter to Kitchen be- cause Red had been there about q week ago and the clerk remembered that he was a colored man. Kitchen. however, persisted that he was the right man, and left an order that all letters for Red should be sent to 957 Market street.
 In the afternoon of the same day the registered letter clerk sent notice to 907 Market street to the effect that a letter Yesterday morning Kitchen presented himself at the office with the notice and demanded the letter He was at once placed under arrest by the postal in- spectors, and being taken into their office stoutly persisted in declaring that his name was Tansie Red and that the letter was from his mother Mary, in Kan sas City. It happened that the lady S name is Kate, not Mary, and that there is no such street in Kansas City as the one mentioned by Kitchen. Later in the day, finding that the inspectors knew all about him, he confessed his guilt.
 The inspectors at once sent notice to Red that a valuable letter was in the not made his appearance up to the close of office hours.

passing concern and exactly in line with the natural trend of inquiry: Dur ing the first Cleveland administration the Patterson Pacific Railroad Commis- sion visited this coast. On that occa- sion the Southern Pacific paid the Ex- aminer $5000 in coin not to attempt to influence the commission. This amount is said to have been increased as the investigation went on. But these are the rude outlines of the operation. The commission has power to draw out facts sufficient to elaborate it. There Is in San Quentin, in an official capac- ity, a man named Thorpe who could give the Commissioners all the infor- nation necessary to promote a worthy and effective pursuit of the truth.
 The people have something at. stake. but the Commissioners have more. Faith in their probity will rest upon their course, and to spare any culprit will be to injure their own good names.

CLAUS SPRECKELS

 Was. Confined to His Bed With Car buncle, but Is Slowly
 Convalescing.

A sensational article was published last night In an evening paper to the effect that Claus Spreckels was on his death bed, and that death was hourly expected. Dr. L. c. Lane, who is the physician of MT. Spreckels, made the following state ment last night in regard to his patient:
 Claus Spreckels was taken i'll about two weeks ago with a carbuncle on his back. It's effection had the ordinary course, requiring incision,. which was done eight days ago. For a few days aft erward the patient was seriously III. His condition at present is much improved and in all probability he will recover, of slow and painful progress and of a tedious character. There is no doubt as to his final recovery. His indomitable as on previous occasions of his eventful life''

AT HIS OLD TRICKS. osmond E. Kelly Again Arrested for Swindling Whole
 sale HouseS

Edward Kelly, who was arrested Wednesday night on the charge of ob- taining six dozen airs of gloves from H. Franklin, proprietor of a Pine street fac tory, on false pretenses, will probably have to answer to other charges.
 He has been going to wholesale houses pretending that he represented firm in Oakland and obtaining goods from them. Yesterday he was identified as the man who ordered s2OO worth of cloth from the California Woolen Mills and was satisfied to take away with him a bolt worth $20.
 This is not the first time he has been arrested for the same. offense. In the be- ginning of last year he obtained articles from about two, dozen firms on various pretexts. Complaints were made to po- lice Headquarters and he was arrested. He was sent to the County Jail for six months on two charges, but the sen tences ran concurrently. At that time he gave his true name, Osmond E. Kelly.
 After serving his sentence he went to Colusa and worked the same game. He was arrested and served a term in the jail there. A drummer for the Pine street glove factory recognized him as being the man who worked Colusa, and that led to his present arrest.

RELIGION THAT ENDURES
Professor JOrden's Lecture to the
 Conference Last Evening.

Professor JOrden's Lecture to the
 Conference Last Evening.
 "The Religion That Will Endure, D was the subject which David Starr Jor- dan discussed at some length at the meeting of the Pacific Unitarian Con ference last evening.
 In his introduction he said: "The re- ligion of authority, the historical re- ligion, the religion of our fathers, the religion that by authority brings masses to the church, and the religion of reason are the two great religions. The religion of reason is where each man reasons out his own salvation these are the two religions which will endure" Catholic priest once said to me.
 Dr. Jordan then went on to show what these two religions were, and how sometimes the religion of authority reached those that the religion of req son could not reach, and how often when men became weary with reason they wandered back to authority to find rest. The weary want comfort, D he said, and after battling with req son turn back to the church authority That which is called occult and mys- terious is spiritual impoverishment, and where there is no idea, where there
 
 terious It is the degeneration and de- cay of religion"
 Professor Jordan then gave a defini- tion of religion. Religion is devotion in action, to act, to work, to feel, not to go over formal ritual in a sleepy way and listen to beautiful music. It is worshipful love and life"
 He then continued and spoke of to- day. He admonished his hearers not to dwell on the future or the past, but live in the present, the past is long way off," he said, "and so is the rfu- ture. To-day is our world-to-day is our life. To-day is the only thing that We really know, it is the only bitter sod we have, the only world we have"
 Dr. Jordan then concluded his ad- dress with few remarks on duty and virtue being but parts of obedience.
 When the professor took his seat he was complimented by the enthusiastic applause of the audience.
 Dr. Martin of Tacoma and Rev. H. Stebbins of this city followed with discussion of the subject. Dr. Martin particularly shol. ed his learning, and his delivery was particularly pleasing.
