REV. DR.. L0CKE'S
FAREWELL ADDRESS

Rev. DR.. Locke preached his farewell
sermon to a large congregation last night
Scores of those who wished to hear him
were turned away, unable to get within
the outer doors The pastor spoke elo-
auentIy, his voice at times breaking with
feeling. His sermon, in brief. was as fol-
lows:
We live in deeds, not in years; in
thoughts, not breaths. We should
count time by heart throbs. He most
lives who thinks most, feels the
ncbIest, acts the best. l am not IN
clined this evening so much TO preach
to you as 1 am to emphasize some liv-
ing words l give you the text which
I have just read as motto for good
living.
The heart stands for mans moral
and spiritual nature. The real issues
of life depend upon heart power and
heart achievement While we often
say the mind is the man, yet that
man is of pigmy nature whose mind
has not been developed at the expense
of his heart. Be true to your friends.
I.ongfellow says he breathed a song
into the air, and then writes:
The song from beginning to end
I found again in the heart OF friend
In closing Dr.. Locke spoke tenderly of
his affection for his people, and of a hope
that at some future time he might be
returned TO labor in San Francisco.

SPIRITUALISM AND
OCCULTISM DISCUSSED

DR.. Allen Grifiths delivered an interest
ing lecture on -Spiritualism and Occult
ism" last night. at the meeting or the
Universal Brotherhood, in the hall OF the
Academy of Sciences A large audience
listened to his views on the subject. He
said in part:
Theosophy looks upon spiritualism
as il does upon everything else; from
the vantage ground OF universal
sweep of vision. It admits the fact or
genuine phenomena, the existence OF
beings residing upon the superpnysicai
side of nature, and the possibility OF
communication being had with them
by men under certain conditions, out at
the same time warns against such
practices as productive of evil 1t as
serts that man is composite in his
constitution, being composed, broadly
speaking. of body, soul and spirit:
During life he exists in a pnySical
body and is usually dominated by de-
sires and interests which at death per-
ish. because of their perishable ma
ture; that during life his spiritual ma
ture constantly strives to impress II
self upon the lower man and succeeds
in the ratio of his elevating thought
and action above merely earthly
affairs.
This is the voice Of conscience. AT

of the First Presbyterian Church, in the
course of sermon entitled waiting for

T hirty-Fifth Year of
His Passionate.
RECEIVES A FINE TESTIMONIAL
1T Is ACCOMPANIED BY a VERY
HANDSOME CHECK.
The Popular Divine breaches the An
niversary Sermon, and Both
He and His Flock Are
Visibly Affected.

The Rev. Horatio Stebbins, DID,, cele-
brated the thirty-fifth anniversary OF his
pastorate of the First Unitarian Church
yesterday morning in the church edifce
on the corner Of Geary and Franklin
streets. DR.. Stebbins presided at the ser
vices and preached the anniversary SER
mon. This was the second time that he
had occupied the pulpit since his recent
illness, from which ne has happily recov-
cred.
A feature of the occasion was the pre-
sentation to DR.. Stebbins Of a beautifully
engrossed testimonial, accompanied by a
check for $1,000. The testimonial was
signed by over 300 members of the con-
gregation, to which the distinguished prel-
ate has endeared himself throughout the
many years OF his ministration. Many OF
the assemblage were visibly affected
when the recipient responded in a feel
ing manner. He also found it difficult to
control his own feelings, and there were
few dry eyes in the congregation.
The Rev. A. J. Wells assisted at the
services, and in his prayer gave thanks
that the pastor of the First Church had
been spared to continue his influence
among the members of his flock.
In his sermon DR.. StebbinS referred TO
the wondrous changes that have occurred
during the past fifty years, and which
included some of the greatest achieve
ments of man on the earth.
Few of you" he said, remember the
origin of the First Unitarian Church,
nearly half a century ago. Forty-seven
years ago your committee requested me
to become your pastor. OF that commit
tee only one is present, John Perry Jr.
whose heart is as young as his years are
venerable. l did not accept the call
then. but twelve years later, when hearts
were weeping at the death of one whose
name will ever be revered, l became your
pastor to succeed him.
