REV. DR.. BRIGGS
ON MISSION WORK

There are 100000 people in San Fran
cisco who never enter the doors of a
church or come within the range of
Christian influences. They are people
who are not reached by the workers
of any religion or sect and they con-
stitute city in themselves. The Ro-
man Catholic church, Especially the
Paulist fathers), has been doing noble
work and strange though it may seem
to some, the Episcopalians are also
keeping in touch with the submerged,
though they are generally supposed to
be the high toned church. But we
Methodists have been running away
from the places where we are most
needed We have been getting away
from the places where the people are
thickest and neediest and have been
getting out in the suburbs where the
wealthy people live. 1t is to get in
touch with the people who need Chris
tianity the most that my brother and 1
will devote ourselves in future"
If these words came from any other
than Methodist minister it would GER
tainly be unwise to quote them lot
they dropped from the lips of Rev. A.
II. Briggs ID. D., yesterday afternoon
during an interview at the Moana hotel
and he followed with even more in
tense expression Of his belief that pre-

reasonable mobility of tenure, the land
from getting into the hands of or be-
ing held by spectators, or of being
bought up in large tracts to the exclu-
sion of small holders. That the law
has not always served these purposes
is largely because in common with all
human laws it has not always accom-
plished what it was designed for. At
the same time, while there have been
many suggestions for it's amendment,
no legislature has undertaken to
amend it. 1t is still the law of the
land, and as Governor Carter has said
is binding on him.

sent conditions in Christian circles Of
San Francisco are deplorable.
Until very recently Rev. A. H. Briggs
and his brother Rev. H. F. Briggs have
occupied the unique position of assoc
ciate pastors of the Central Methodist
Episcopal Church on Mission street, be-
tween Sixth and Seventh streets, San
Francisco. They had coordinate au-
thority and, although the plan had
never been tried before in the United
States, it worked out well for the
church. The Central, under the en-
thusiastic guidance of the two brothers
soon became popular and the ranks Of
the congregation swelled amazingly.
1t was while engaged in this pastoral
work that the two brothers had it
borne on them that there was an ut
terly neglected field in the city by the
Golden Gate.
I'VE have left Episcopal control en-
tirely, after getting our papers, pro-
perly endorsed, from the Conference"
explained Rev. Briggs. 1--WE will en-
gage in down town work altogether,

relieve the present miserable situation

The Invar able Rule.

A stove came to this station last
week from Sears. Roebuck & Co..
consigned to H. B. King. When Mr..
King came in after the stove he re-
fused to accept it, the reason for doing
so, was plainly evident. The stove
was supposed to weigh $50 pounds, but
upon weighing IL crate and all. it
would hardly reach the 400 mark.
The construction was the very cheap
est possible. The stove was to be "a
six hole steel range, and the size was
all right. but the steeel was stove
pipe iron, lined with one thickness
of asbestos paper, the trimmings were
to be nickle, and in place of nickle,
aluminium enamel was substituted. The
stove could not be sold at any price,
in fact home merchant would be
ashamed to offer piece of goods like
it for sale. Mr.. King showed excellent
Judgment in refusing to accept it.
He went to Mr.. O'Neils hardware
store and purchased him stove.
Mr.. O'Neil is closing out the heavy
goods in his stock and SO sold him
stove at cost or thereabouts. In
speaking to H. A. Bjergo & Son they
informed us that they have in stock
a stove which they are selling at $25
which is in every way far superior
to Sears, Roebuck stove. That stove

Another Skin Game.

The Chelsea Independent tells of
another scheme to catch the unwary
farmers, that has just been developed.
A fellow comes along and proposes to
sell the farmer a bill of groceries,
and agrees to takeFfor pay eggs at
thirteen cents a dozen. To make the
trade all straight, the groceryman
takes the farmers note for his
groceries, and gives his own for the
eggs but in few days the farmer
gets notice that some neighboring
bank holds the note he gave the
stranger. The farmer has the grocery
mans note, to be sure. but is not worth
the paper upon which. it is written.
The farmer gets beat every time he
signs paper for stranger, vet he
keeps on doing it. This is one of the
twentieth century wonders.
