Prin. E. q. Ham gave "Layman's
View Of Christianity" to an interested
congregation assembled in the Methodist
church Sunday evening and impressed
upon them the layman's needs and aids
in the daily task Of Christian living.
He Hrst sketched briefly the history Of
Christianity from the beginning; the
sowing OF the seed in the land Of Judea
and then the broader scattering among
the Gentle nations By the hands Of the
apostles and their disciples, down to the
priests and iaymen Of the present time,
still striving 70 wrest the fields Of sin for
the harvest Of truth.
The main discourse was a consideration
under three heads OF the life Of Christ
His reading Of the Scriptures, His ire
quent communion with the Father
through prayer and His work. Our
Lords knowledge OF the books OF the Old
Testament COMPOUNDED even the Jewish
teachers. We learn that, IS His custom
was. he went into the synagogue on the
Sabbath day and stood M for to read
And when He had closed the book and
began to expound the words Of the pro-
phet, the people all bare Him witness and
marvelled at the gracious words which
proceeded out Of His mouth, asking
among themselves, Is not this Joseph's
son3 How knoweth this man letters,
having never learned2 In this reading Of
the Scriptures, Christ has given His Deo-
pie an example too little followed Too
many books OF ephemeral pleasure, un-
wisely selected, too many Sunday papers
OF interminable pages, are crowding the
Book Of Books out OF the lives Of people
who need il more than the Holy Son Of
God. With too few is it a custom to 20
into synagogue or church on the Sabbath
day to teach or be taught from the in
spired Word.
= OF divine as well as human nature,
Christ Jet felt the need OF prayer. He
sought frequent communion with the
Father, leaving His disciples to 60 away
and bare His soul to the All-seeing Eye;
returning then fortified against the
taunts and sneers Of an UnbelisyinR
world, and strengthened to endure the
treachery, sorrow, cross and agony that
awaited Him. How much more frequent.
" does frail humanity need to implors
such strength and protection IS shall de.
fend 1t in all dangers and carry II
through all temptations.
From reading and prayer, Christ went
forth to establish His kingdom upon
earth, to live the perfect human life, e
be an example to all men, to do the work
Of the Father who sent Him. From his
Bible and prayer should the Iayman e
forth to copy that life, to follow that ex,
ample and to do the work his hands inc
tc do.

Mrs. .. ?. Mead on "san Francisco"
At the last meeting Of tha Randolph
Woman's Literary club. Mrs. e. o.
Blanchard read an interesting description
Of San Francisco BY Mrs. ]. +. Mead,
who, writing from her winter retreat at
Los Angeles, thus gives her impressions
OF Frisco since It's resurrection from
earthquake and fire.
ssTo me the first, and even chief, differ
ence lay In the sky line as We approached
from the bay. Two years ego Il was .

pllng wallis with the western sun glowing
rcd through empty window spaces. It
had made = TERRIBLE impression upon my
mind 30 that rejoiced to see It looking
a. It usad to look, despite the fact that
on an average every other lot in the bust
ness section Of San Francisco Is still va
can't.
Nevertheless marvellous strides in re-
building have been made and the build
ings that are up are Of . permanent and
exceedingly handsome character. The
Paramount hotel Is a unique and magni-
hcent structure. The old Palace hotel 10
replaced by a white brick building with
elaborate and costly balconies, cornice,
etc, wrought iron.
"Nob hill is as yet unchanged mass
OF twisted iron and broken stone, looking
more dreary and desolate than Pompeii
ITSELF San Franciscans are wondering
what is to be the fate Of Van Ness
avenue, the fashionable residence district
before the earthquake; for its present one
story wooden buildings occupied BY mer-
chants are fast being deserted as their
renters move back into their new-old
quarters in the business district.
"Golden Gate park still seems to me
the most beautiful 10 the United States,
and San Francisco's streets still swarm
with the busting cosmopolitan crowd
that makes il so intensely interesting q
city.
"Oakland has profited by San Francis
co.'s devastation and Piedmont the bin

with the beautiful new residences Of
former San Fanciscans."

RING SIDE GOSSIP

Johnson says he will begin training in earnest about the middle of July. He declares that his proposed fight with Al Kaufman will take place on September IT or 19, but he cannot name the battle-ground just now. The big negro, however. thinks that Promoter Coffroth will get the match for his Colma arena. but it is just possible that Coffroth will not make a bid, as he believes that Johnson's fight with Ketchel in October will prove one of the biggest attractions ever arranged in California. Coffroth said the other day that he believed Johnson and Ketchel would draw gate of more than $4o,oO0.
 Leach Cross. the East Side boxer, has arrived in Frisco and has begun training for his forty-five round bout with Dick Hyland. Cross regards Fly land as sure thing and says after he wins he will ask for a match with Nelson. The latter, who seems to be more pugnacious than usual, now states that he will take Packy McFar- land on next September. If Nelson actually meets and defeats Cyclone Johnny Thompson, Mcfarland and Freddie Welsh he can retire the un- disputed lightweight champion of the world. with nobody 10 throw cold water on his title.

In that case whether we win or lose we'll climb.

 Pete Wilson, the former Senator, was given a chance to show his worth against the Chicago White Sox yes terday but was yanked out after an innings trial Two hits constituted all that was made off Pete.
 Slapper Sam Kennedy, the old Nor wich leader, now scout for the Phil- adelphia Americans, is doing soft work in the New England league. He has eyes on a youngster named Rondeau of the Worcester club who has just broken into the league and has an av- craze of 1854. He is wanted by the Clevelands but Manager Jesse Bur kett refused an offer of $s,oo0 for him: He is a graduate of an Industrial league in Woonsocket, a. I.
 Manager Stallings put Chesbro in to pitch against the White Sox Saturday, because the veteran begged to have chance. i've got everything and can pitch as we'll as ever" said Happy Jack. He was sent in and quickly dem- onstrated that he had nothing which fact he could not explain when he reached the bench.
 Whenever Ed Walsh of the White Sox loses game the Chicago fans attribute it either to hard luck or an accident. The baseball sharps about the country think he is without su- perior, having more effectiveness than Christy Mathewson or Three Finger Brown. He is big and strong enough to pitch every day.
