Such was the advertisement that ap-
peared in a local paper Monday, No
vember %, the day following a lecture
given in the Young Mems Christian
Association auditorium by a man who
styled himself and so far as any one
knows with no malicious purpose, the
Rev. Edgar Vance of Sydney, Austria
liza.
Two weeks later the Rev. Mr.. Vance
Of Sydney, Australia, presented him
self at the mission house of the Wom-
ans Occidental Board of Foreign Pres
byterian Missions, Sacramento street,
and by consent delivered an address,
which was later debated by the august
ministerial body. which meets every
Monday TO hear learned papers and dis
cuss ecclesiastical subjects.
The address was received with pro-
found acknowledgement, and the Rev.
Mr.. Edgar Vance left the premises and
later expressed a desire to court the
acquaintance Of several Presbyterian
ministers Of note in the community. He
succeeded, and among them was the
Rev. Mr.. Guthrie Of the First Presbyte-
rian Church, whose quick perception
prompted him that his ministerial
brother from the Antipodes was not too
well off with this worlds comforts. The
kindly minister after an interview
pressed the Antipodean to remain and
accept a place at the family board.
The Rev. Mr.. Vance complied with the
warm invitation and later received
from the reverend gentleman pecuniary
assistance.

sUsPICIONs AROUsED.

1t came to the ears of an elder that
Mr.. Vance had been a member Of the
Roman Catholic faith and had told a
gentleman that he was a convert, but
his position was such that he required
aid, and without further explanation
his need was magnanimously complied
with.
And a number of such instances got
whispered about, until the members of
the presbytery began to fear that their
confidence had been misplaced.
General Manager Mccoy of the Young
Mems Christian Association was told
Of the matrimonial advertisement and
was deeply hurt about the matter
II is a fact that the Rev Mr.. Edgar
Vance, according to his own statement,
was looked upon as responsible for a
similar matrimonial advertisement that
appeared in a Vancouver paper not so
long ago, and it is a fact that the Rev.
Mr.. Edgar Vance threatened the pro-
prietor Of the Vancouver paper for an
article which connected the Antipodean
gentleman with the same matrimonial
advertisement, but he let the matter
drop after his lawyers told him, he
says, Of the great expense such an ac-
tion would involve.
BY some means not explained Mr..
Vance discovered that Mr.. Mccoy had
been informed about the advertisement
which was so Objectionable to the
Young Mems Christian Association. and
straightway wrote the general man
ager Of the association, not only regret
ting the publication. but explaining
that men do things when in pressed
circumstances which they would at no
other time think Of doing. and, further,
Mr.. Vance made an appeal to Mr.. Nc
Coy Cor assistance toward his passage
hack tO far-Off Australia
The San Francisco call., 1903-12-15
WOULD BE A GRPMAN.

Mr.. Vance had also, probably in the
desperation of circumstances, ap-
pealed to the Rev. Mr.. Guthrie for
letter to Manager Chapman of the
United Railroads which might enable
him TO get a position on the cars as
gripman or conductor. The letter was
given but not without the minister first
trying to dissuade his applicant from
turning to the occupation. Subsequent
revelations then prompted Mr.. Guthrie
10 write to Mr.. Chapman and with
draw his recommendation.
Speaking at the ministers meeting
yesterday. which Mr.. Vance addressed
last Monday week the Rev DR.. ]. T.
Wills said:
4 may at once say that I object to
having men speak here until they are
known. And by this / would have II
fully understood that 1 do not object
to men Of other denominations, or even
men not connected with any denomina-
ton. addressing this body But they
must be men Of good reputation and
known.
Il do not intend to mention any
name. but l allude TO one who has
victimized members OF this union and
other denominations and simply men-
tion this as a warning as to our course
in the future"
The San Francisco call., 1903-12-15
GROSSLY IMPOSED UPON.

Speaking Of the affair later, DR.. Wills
said:
"A person who has addressed tie
ministerial body has been visiting va
r,ous denominations pretending, I
hear, to belong TO each denomination
called upon. and has presented Gre
dentials Of which he evidently has an
assortment to suit each one. l heard
that he visited a gentleman Of the
Roman Catholic church and told him
that he had been converted to that
faith and received a contribution Of
s. from him. 1t is one of those inn
positions that should be exposed,
though at rrst I vas inclined to ad-
wise suppression of the matter"
The Rev. James Woodwork quito
agreed with DR.. Wills and reminded
the ministers that some time ago they
had been grossly imposed upon by a
man who presented his credentials.
which upon inquiry turned out TO be
an impudent forgery.
The Rev. Mr.. Vance has a small room
at a Turkish bath establishment on
Market street. Mr.. Mccoy feels a good
deal ot sorrow for the man and said
yesterday that he did not think there
was any harm in Mr.. Vance.
The Rev Mr.. Guthrie is more out
spoken and condemns what seems to
him most extraordinary procedure.

this year was in the nature of an ex-
pertinent, and it has more than real
lied the expectations of the gentle
men representing the company
When the land was seeded, it was
the intention of the company to es-
tablish a broom factory to work up
this corn, but it is probable the corn
will be sold. AS the Idaho Indus
trial Institute is provided with broom
making machinery, it is probable the
school will secure the corn and work
it up.
The success of the experiment has
demonstrated that broom corn can
be raised here, and a number of
ranchers have declared their inten-
tention of raising it next year. II is

fine chicken feed, and is good for
stock also.

Al Apimal Story For
Little Folks
The Foolish Hares

Nobody had any idea that the two
hares would be bright scholars when
they went TO school. but 1t certainly
was the opinion of every one who
knew them that they would at least
be able to keep up with their class.
One day during the geography hour
the teacher showed the class big
globe representing the earth and told
how it turned on its axis and how dur
ing the day we are all on top of the
globe, while at night we are nearly
upside down. The little hares looked
on and wondered, and when they got
home they got to talking the whole
thing over
