CHAUTAUQUA Many People Visit Lon Beach SUNDAY AT THE ASSEMBLY "GOD'S WORKMANSHIP" BY A NOTED SOUTHERN DIVINE Dr. Lamar Will Lecture on Dixie This Evening—Dr. Dennen Talks Today Sunday at Long Beach was a perfect midsummer day. The cool air from the ocean tempered the heat of the sun to a pleasant degree of warmth and the water never looked lovelier than It did yesterday. The white sails of the float ing craft dotted the bay like the out spread wings of mammoth sea birds; the ocean seemed to take on a deeper tint of blue and 1 Neptune's horses cantered ir. with slower pace than usual. The trains of the morning brought down, many vis itors, who attended the assembly serv ices, while others spent the day pic nicking on the beach or watching the boats and waves from the wharf. The customary scripture classes of the morning were dispensed with and no ex ercises were held until the morning ser mon at 11 oclock by Dr. A. W. Lamar, pastor of the First Baptist church of Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Lamar has at tended every Chautauqua assembly in the country from the parent society in New York to all its ramifications east and west, wherever their annual meet ings are held. He has told everywhere the story of Dixie In the ante-bellum days, as seen, by a boy, and the new south of the present day, with a glance Into the future. He visited the assembly of Southern California four years ago, and as in many other instances else where was invited to return and repeat the lecture. Dr. Lamar Is a typical southerner, of medium height, slender in physique, swarthy in. complexion, like a true child born under the southern sun. He is fluent in the use of language, rounding his sentences to a musical rhythm in the characteristic southern accent and Intonation, and speaks ex- temporaneousiy, with only a few rough notes to guide his thought. He does not mince words, but expresses his ideas in clear-cut and forcible language, and holds the close attention of his hearers from the opening to the close of the lec ture or sermon. THE MORNING SERMON The pavilion was filled with a large congregation when Rev. Alfred Inwood read the lesson of the day and made th?, opening prayer. Mrs. Evangeline Haddon sang Han del's "He Was Despised," Dr. Jewell of Riverside following in prayer. The theme of Dr. Lamar's sermon was "God's Workmanship in the Christian." The text taken was from Ephesians 2-10: "We are His Workmanship." Creation cannot be understood., said the speaker, till diust stands up a living' man. The unfoldings of Genesis confirm this statement. Through its opening sen tence as a gateway he sees emerging the order of God's creation —light, firm ament, sidereal worlds, continents, seas, rivers, lakes, mountains, living and creeping things, coal fields, stone quar ries, iron mines, gold and sliver deposits, and the thousands of nature's beauties and wonders. Finally, one morning in the world's history all creation stood still and waited for a footfall. Then out of God's thought and hand stepped forth man and woman into the light and glory of Eden's morn. Man is the key that explains creation. We see why it was that all are made now to that. First, after creation happened a great sorrow— man fell. Out of the ruins God made a new creation. We are his workman ship created in Jesus. Christ. Observe the kind of. material out of which God If making saints. He has always had saints in every age and nation. They are a peculiar people, marked, and dis tinguished by unique characteristics, but of what does he make them. Many think he makes saints out of angels or out of religious prodigies, but the truth is, he makes saints out of sinners. The full force of this statement we often lose sight of. But look at the Old Testa ment worthies. Moses was a murderer and fugitive from justice; Abraham, who could not tell the Pharoah the truth about his wife; Jacob, a scheming, plotting, deceiving money lender. These men were turned into such characters that their birthmark is still upon the civilization of the after ages. Look at the New Testament. John, the beloved, would have made a first-class boodle alderman in Los Angeles; Peter was a boastful, cowardly liar; Paul was a fire-eating, fanatical murderer. These men were transformed Into the apostles of God'ssonand have influenced all subsequent ages by the power of their goodness. Sinners made Into saints are no exception to this. rule. Take this audience, for Instance; here are re fined, cultivated, modest, moral girls in their teens who have never committed any social offense. Are they sinners? Let them answer. I call on any one ol them present who has never lied to stand up; never coveted, stand up; never dis obeyed parents in the slightest degree, stand up. Now, not one in this vast audience has stood up Why? From the least unto the greatest we are self-con victed of lying, covetousness and other spiritual sins, and God is shut up to the necessity of making saints out of sin ners if he deals with human beings. It is this view of things that shows us what the cross of Jesus means. Secondly—God's workmanship is not yet finished; he has not In all the world and ntver had a perfected specimen of his workmanship. The best results of man's endeavor for six thousand years was an exhibition at the World's fair. But God has never had an exposition in which to display before His created in telligences the final result of his saint making. This is a sorrowful thought and should stir our souls. But the time is coming when Christ will come in glory and His saints and then the righteous shall shine forth in completed and un vailed perfectness and the assembled uni verse shall see that marvelous creation called the Christian, full grown and clothed upon. LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, JULY 26, J897 Thirdly—We shall let the workman have his way with us. Can we foresee what tools are best to be used upon us? The things we would shrink from the most would be for us the best. God may need to use persecution, or sick ness, or poverty, or toll, or pain, or helplessness, or bereavement, or a hun dred other tools on you and me before the work is finished. We should be glad we do not know what is ahead and be trustful in the thought that God knows and can make all things work together for our good. We need to say constant ly: "Lord, have thy way with me; chisel me when and how and where thou wilt, only keep me and perfect me in Thy like ness." At the close of the sermon Miss Jessie sang "I Know That My Redeemer Liv eth," from The Messiah. AFTERNOON AND EVENING At 2:30 Miss Harlow, a teacher at the great Wanamaker Sunday school in Philadelphia, conducted a service for children. She Is a pleasing speaker to the little folks, makes the lessons she seeks to impress simple and clear to the infantile mind, nor does she tire them with overmuch speaking nor a long drawn out session. At 6:30 an Instructive meeting of young people was held in the Pavilion, conducted by E. Vance Hill. The service of the evening was a sort of round table on practical Christianity. Rev. C. C. Dorland spoke to the sub ject from the standpoint of the Old Tes tament. Rev. Dr. Wright, pastor of the M. E. church of Riverside, spoke from the New Testament, and Dr. Lamar closed the symposium with a talk on practical Christianity as needed in our own times. This morning the usual program will be carried out, the several classes in sacred history meeting at the regular hours. Previous to the regular service a young people's meeting was conducted by Vance Hill. HID BEHIND A DRESS A WOMAN'S WIT ALMOST SAVES A FUGITIVE FROM ARREST c a - Pursued by an Officer, Otto Miller Buns Into a Girl's Apartment. Concealed Under a Dress Tiring of the Sunday quiet which pre vailed yesterday, two young fellows named Otto Miller and Frank Sagger de cided to relieve the monotony and show those of more retiring dispositions what two real sports could 1 do In the way of making things lively. Accordingly, early In the evening they began to fill up on something stronger than water and did' not cease Imbibing until they had acquired a jag of magnificent pro portions. Then they hired a livery rig from a Los Angeles street stable and drove up and down Spring and Main streets for several hours', yelling and otherwise behaving In an obstreperous manner, but demonstrating, as they evi dently thought, that they were the real article. Officers Hubbard and Johnson had their attention attracted to the young fellows by the disturbance which they were raising and started after them. As soon, ac the youngsters saw what was coming they put off down Broadway and tried to get out of sight. North of First street Miller jumped out of the rig and ran into a lodging house. Officer Hubbard followed him, but once inside the house lost sight of his man, who had dodged into one of the rooms. He lis tened at several doors and finally heard a whispering inside one of the rooms that caused him to believe the fugitive was inside. He knocked, but got no re sponse, and then knocked again more loudly. This time ths door opened a few inches and' a feminine voice called out asking what was wanted. "I am looking for a man and want to come inside," the officer answered, at the same time quietly slipping a No. 10 shoe in the opening. "Is there anyone else In the room besides you?" he went on, shoving the rest of his body into the room through the opening made by his foot. "No, sir, not a soul," the girl replied. Hubbard looked under the bed, in the closet and every other place where it seemed possible that a man could be hidden. He- had just about concluded that he had been mistaken after all and that Miller had gone into another room and was on the point of apologizing for his intrusion when he noticed some fe male, garments hanging in a corner and thought he would look behind them be fore leaving. He pulled these aside, and there, sure enough, was the fugitive crouching behind' the dresses. He was hustled In lively fashion and taken to the police station, where he was charged with disturbing the peace. Miller's companion had already been caught by Officer Johnson and both were locked up. AT THE PARKS A Child Laughs at Superintendent Garey's Orders Yesterday was a quiet' day at the parks. The attendance was only fair, many of those who usually frequent these resorts having taken' advantage of the pleasant weather to 6pend the day at one or the other of the beaches. The usual Sunday concert by H. F. Meine's orchestra was given at West lake park. There was at least one visitor at Cen tral park who appreciated the flowers and shrubbery. This was little two year-old Alice Gertrude Bowen. The little tot ran away from her parents, who were out walking, and hurried off to the park. When the child's absence was noticed a search at once began for her. The matter was- reported l at the police station, and a little later an offi cer found the little girl making bouquet© from the blossoms along the borders, which she plucked in. defiance of the threatening sign boards bearing the in scription, "Do not pick the flowers," which are posted all over the park. Alice was brought to the station and kept there until her mother called for her. During the Summer I will take a few young lady pupils for lessons in shorthand and typewriting three hours each day at $1.50 per week.

The unique and some what primitive style of the race was in itself an attraction, many people being desirous of finding out the relative speed of a catboat and a schooner when the full canvas of both was drawing from the same breeze. The course, marked out by stakeboats flying the blue and white flags of the yacht club, started almost straight but from the wharf, the direction being east by south. On this tack the- yachts sailed for two and ore-half miles and then went before the wind for three miles, steering N.N,E.%E. After rounding the stake boat the course for home was steered W.US., the last leg of the course being four and three-quarter miles long. At 12:30 oclock the first gun was fired from the steamer Catalina, lying at the. wharf. On this boat were the Judges, Messrs. Hancock Banning, William Staats and R. H. Lacy, and the tlme- keepers, Messrs. Updegraff and Oscar Orr, as well as several prominent mem bers of the ciub. Fifteen minutes elapsed before the second gun was fired, boats not being allowed to cross the line be fore the second gun, nor later than fif teen minutes after the second discharge. A fleet of yachts, the J. Wiliey leading the bunch, crossed the lino very shortly after the second gun, but several were in bad position and made a late start. The schooner Nellie took the wind out of the sloop Allle just as the latter was crossing the line, the Nellie swinging in to windward, of the sloop, her big spread of canvas catching every particle of wind. The Allie had to put up her helm, and get a fresh start, being half a mile in the rear when she filially crossed the line. The Nellie, as every one expected,; rounded the first stakeboat in the lead, having passed all her other competi tors on the- iirst leg of the course. The Defender, jr., which was looked on by many as a probable winner, got Into trouble on the second tack. Her sailing master, afraid that her mast would not hold, gave up the race and tacked for home. The Nellie led the fleet down the second leg of the course, the Allle being the last to round the stakeboat. Appar ently the Nellie mistook the situation of the second stakeboat, for she headed away on a course about four points north of the mark, running free before the wind, the whole fleet, with the ex ception of the Allle following in her wake. The Allie saw the mistake made by the leaders in the race and, steering the true course, headed directly for the stakeboat. The Nellie discovered her error and altered her course, passing the second stakeboat well in the lead. On the tack the J. Wiliey had moved up to second place, and on the last tack the real race for the first place began. It was impossible to head straight for thome, and a long tack was necessary for some of the boats that could not sail so close to the wind. The J. Wiliey showed her superiority in this respect. She sailed in very close, and' making a short tack south of the Terminal island wharf, crossed the line one minute and fifty-one seconds ahead of the next boat, which was the sloop Flying Bird. The Nellie made a long tack, standing straight out to sea, and managed to get third place, though had she been handled on the last leg of the course as well as the J. Wiliey she would have taken first place. Between the first boat to cross the line and the last one to hear the judges' sa lute, forty-four minutes and nine sec onds elapsed. The finish of the prize winners and their time were as follows: Name— Rig. Time. 1. J. Wiliey Schooner 1:53:191-5 2. Flying Bird....Sloop 1:55:30 4-5 3. Nellie Schooner 2:00:05 2-5 4.

PROVES TO BE PHILIP BESINER Inquest Over an Old Soldier Who Met a Tragic Death Friday Night An Inquest was held yesterday after noon over the body of the old soldier who died in the receiving hospital as a result of injuries received by falling from a second story portico at the Ba i kers' home, Alameda street, on lust Frl day night while somnambulatlng. His name was learned to be Philip Beslner, and he was 61 years old. Beslner was a German, and during the war belonged to the first company of California cavalry. He entered the Soldiers' home In June, 1890, and had been there most of the time since until a few days ago, when he left. The deceased had relatives liv ing at Livingston, Mont. LODGING HOUSE ROW John Hill Is Arrested for Disturbing the Peace John Hill was arrested at a lodging house on the corner of Commercial and Center streets last night while creating a disturbance. Hill had a difficulty with the proprietor of the place and started in to do him up. He succeeded in mak ing himself quite conspicuous In the, back yard, but the scrap was of more consequence from the amount of noise raised and the number of windows broken than from any personal Injuries received by either party. Officers Ben Robbins and Craig happened along at an unfavorable moment for Hill, and gathering him in, removing him to the police station in the patrol wagon. BOLD HIGHWAYMEN They Hold up a Citizen on Hill Street Some bold burglars got in their work last Saturday night. A. W. Hill was their victim. He had spent the evening at the Orpheum and was returning home at about 11:30 p. m. On his way It was necessary to pass the corner of Third and Hill streets. This portion of the street is very poorly lighted, and as he was walking along the sidewalk at a rapid rate two men stepped out from the shadows and commanded him to halt. Hlll brought up short and inquired what was wanted. The answer which he received was not reassuring, and came In the nature of a demand for his money. He did not propose to give up so easily, arid promptly told' the men that if they got his coin they would be likely to take It from him. They did not wait for anything further but started to try their strength. Two palm of strong THE START hands grabbed Hill and he was thrown forcibly to the ground. He attempted to resist, but his assailants were too much for him. One of the robbers pinioned him to the ground ard the other went through his pockets securing in al! about $15. When satisfied that they had tak en all the money he had the two high waymen departed, leaving their victim unhurt except as to hii'pocket. A Gasoline Blaze A telephone alarm called the fire de partment to the corner of Sixth and Broadway at 1:30 yesterday afternoon. A gasoline stove explosion in the Model restaurant at that place was responsible for a small blaze which had started. Chemical engine No. 8 was brought into service and the lire was soon extin guished. The loas will probably amount to $50.

"Come Seven, Come Eleven" Albert Corpal, colored, was arrested on Los Angeles street early yesterday morning for running a crap game.

The Very Newest Sash With the gowns that are all a-flutter, much ot that appearanc is due to the fascinating chiffon or gauze sash worn. The belt portion of the sash Is usually laid in loose folds on a foundation, the effect being that of a sash wound easily once or twice about the, figure. The ends seem to tie at the back in a bow knot, with softly crisp loops and ends floating away down by the hem of the gown. The ends are frilled sometimes, the edges at the end being finished with three or four little frills set close together, or they are tucked, the tucks extending half way to the waist, and sometimes, in intervals of two or three tucks, to the loops.—N.

"Mr. Dockweiler, in accordance with the instructions of the council of May 11th, has arrived at conclusions on the follow ing four points: The correctness of. the data furnished by the water company. The cost of a new plant Identical in all respects with the present plant. The present real worth of the old plant. Its available value to the city as a part of an ultimately complete plant. Mr.Dockweilerandalarge and efficient corps of assistants have for over two months been engaged on this work, per sonally inspecting all the property of the water company. The result of his in vestigations occupies fifty-six pages of closely typewritten copy and is the most exhaustive review of the situation ever prepared. It is understood that Mr. Dockweller's figures will be ir« the nature of a surprise to both the City Water company and the council, for his figures, it is believed, will this morning be found to be $1,190,655, which is about half a million less than the lowest guess which has been hitherto hazarded. Mr. Dockweiler did not conclude his footings till 5 oclock on Saturday after noon. At the Hotels VAN NUYS-J. S. Truslow, San Fran cisco; Mrs. J. S. Elwell, Philadelphia; Miss C.
