Sao Francisco, March 25.-A tong war, perhaps the bloodiest in years, impends to -day in Chinatown here, following xnurders in the Chineee guar- tere of Sacramento, Oakland, and San Franc/see late last night. While a feud among four other togs wee smoulder- ing, the hitherto peaceful memberis of the Bing Kong Society, without waru- ing, shot down five members of the Kim Lum Society. As one of the as- sassinations took place in a temple of the powerful Ceee Kung Tong, or Chinse Freemason Society, it is expected that the war will become general. At Sacramento Willie Wong, an Amerieanized Chineee, was killed in a chop suey restaurant by an unknown assailant, armed with an automatic pietol. Wong Kong fell next with six bullets in Ins body in a gambling house tearby, but his murderer, Fuey Sam, was caught by the police.

Piave: Jerusalem, The time, long foretold, of the coming of the dleeeiali drew near, and as hie coming Was to be announced by a forerunner, that important personage mut appear. The lesison toile us of the promise made to Zacharias Una to him and hie wife should be born a son whose pante should beIt.oTh4ic: The gift of a goodly child. Place: The hill country of Judea. There was great rejoieing when the child was born to Zacheties and Elizabeth. On the eighth day when the child wes to be named, the friends desiren to name him Zacharias after hie father, but Elitabeth objeeted, and Zacharias, who had been dumb ainee the angel had an nouneed that he should have a on, wrote, "His name is John," and then the father's speech returned. III. Topic: Redemption through Christ. Place: Bethlehem. Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem, their ances- tral city, to have their names enrolled according to the command of the Ro- man einperor. While there Christ wee born. An angel announced to shepherds that Christ was born, and afterward'. there was a nuiltitude of the heavenly' host, sayiug, "Glory to God in the high- est, and. on earth peace, good will to- ward men," IV, Topic: Spiritual illumination. Place: Jeruealem. The time came for Jesus to be presented at the temple according to the provision of the Jewish law. The aged Simeon, who bad been ae- sured that he should see the Lord's anointed before he died, recognized the child deeus, and took Him up in hie arms and bleesed God that he had seen him. V. Topic: Religious inquiry. Places: Jerusalem; Bethlehem. About forty days after Christ's birth there appeased at Jerusalem wise men, who bad been guided from the East by a star, and were seeking the child.jesus. Their in- quiries made a great stir in the city and Herod was anxious to know about Him, who was to be King ef the Jews, that He might put Hine to death. The wise men found Jesus, worshiped Him and gave gifts to Him, but did not tell Herod where He was. VI. Topic: Childhood divine. Plenee: Jerusalem; Nazareth. WIfen Jesus was twelve years old He was taken by His parents to Jerusalem to observe the feast of the Passover. While there He entered the temple and engaged in dis- cussion with the teachers of the law. Joseph and Mary started for their home in Nazareth, thinking Jesus was in the company, but He could not be found. They returned to Jerusalem and found Him among the learned men in the temple. VII, Topic: A distinctive miesiom Place: Near the Jordan. When John reached the age of thirty years hebe- gen. to preach in the thinly inhabited regions of Judea. He preached repeht- anee to the crowds who flocked to hun, and he baptized them for the remission of sins. VIII. Topic: Caunst's divinity reveal- ed, Place: Near Bethabara. After John had been preaching about six months, Jesus, who was now thirty years old, came to John and was baptized by him in Jordan. The Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus in the form of a dove, and a voice from heaven said, "Thou are my beloved Son, in whorn I am well pleased." IX. Topic: The ministry of disciple- ship. Place: Ca.perneum. After John's imprisonment Jesus returned from Jud- ea into Galilee and began to preach to the people. His preaehing, like that of John the Baptist, was repentance. Dur- ing these days He found two sets of brothers, Andrew and Simon, James and John, fishermen, by the Sea of Gal- ilee, and called them 'to be His disciples. X. Topic: The life-giving touch. Plac- es: Capernaum and other parts of Gal- ilee. Jesus bealed the mother of Peter's wife of a fever and performed many' other cures. Very early the next morn- ing He retired to a solitary place to pray. The multitudes were so eager- to find him nhat he thought best to make a preaching tour through Galilee. XI. Topic: Divine healing. Place: Capernaurn. As he returned to Caper- naum the people sought Him eagerly and crowded into the house where Be was that they might hear Him speak. Four men brought a friend, a man sick with the palsy, on a bed that Jesus might heal him. They could get to Jesus only by going on the roof and un- covering a, part of the house. When 'Testis saw their faith He forgave the paralytic's sins and. healed him. XII, Topic: A miracle of greet. Place: Capernaum. Jesus went out from Cap- ermium to teach the multitudes by the seaside. Seeing Levi, or Matthew, the tax -gatherer, lie called upon him to follow Him. He at once obeytxl. After a few weeks 'Matthew made a feast at which Jett's was present, and. also publieans and sinnners, as gueds„. PRACTICAL SURVEY. Tople.-Founding a kingdom, 1. The herald. II. The King.

Pbarisees and soribes wore faith- fully shown that they were needy, but by their own prejudice excluded. them- selves. Jesue gsve a faithful recognition of the value of the moral and ceremonial leen. Christianity was explained as the' highest ideal to which God called his people. T. it. A. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS. The forerunner. "He shall be great" (Luke 1: 15). From every moral point of view John the Baptist was great. He was great in being a child ot promise. He was great in that he was given to the world to perform a definite and great work. Ile was great ia his °Aber- enee„ to a life of seef-denial. He was groat in hie integrity. Ile was great in his courage to deelare Unpopular teethe. He was great in his humility. Those were sublime utterances of hie: "There eotaeth one mightier than I after me, and latebet of entiose shoes I am reat• worthy to stoop down and unloose" (Mark 1: 7); "He that cometh after me is preferred 'before me" (John 1: 15); "Re muet increttee, but I must de- crease" (John 3: 30). The ruggedness of John's character was a trait that made him -a znarked man wherever he went. He was the same fearless de- fender of the truth in the presence of Herod that he was when he woke to the multitudes by .the Jordan. Be was the same man in the prison at Macherue that he was when he enjoyed phyeieal 'reedom. His life -work wee soon done, but it was long enough aud of suffieient excellence to reeeiye for him from the Master the tribute, "He was a burning and a shining light" (joint 5: 35). The child Jesus. "Aud Joel's increased in wisdom and stature, and itt favor with God and man" (Lake ii. 52). He was a carefully trained boy. Every child has a right to be well trained. One looks upon a child and sees there an utitold wealth of possibilitiee. One would not, think of leaving unprotected large amounts of money or other valuables, but many allow the children under their ere to grow up with no especial effort to secure their moral and spiritual welfare. The htunan side of Christ's nature was prominent during His child- hood. but His future character and pow- ers were foreshadowed at the interview of the doctors with Him in the temple. Mary had many things during thoee years to yonder in her heart. Christ's preparation for His work, "The Spirit like a dove descended upon Him" (Mark 1. 10); `Tempted" (Matt, 4. 11). These passages present stages in Christ's preparation for His work. The baptism was "to fulfil all righteous- ne.3s," and show to His people His high regard for the Jewish law. The descend- ing Spirit showed the divine approval, and was a symbol of the divine power that He possessed. The temptation showed that on His huriaan side He was exposed to the solicitation of evil. His victory over the tempter teaches man hT6 power to defeat the tempter Mos. The ministry of angels showed that hea- ven was practieally interested in our Redeemer's work and teaches us that God cares for His own. Christ fulfilling His mission. His work as seen in the lessons of this quarter Was threefold. 1. Gathering disciples. 2. Working miracles. 3. Giving instruction. "Come ye after tne" (Mark 1. 17), "I will; be thou elean" (Mark 1. 41), and "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentanee" (Mark 2. 17)., give intimations of the chartitter of His mission. The labor that Christ per- formed and the opposition which he endured show that the Christian is called upon to labot and to suffer for Jeetite sake. , t SUICIDE SMILED s He Threw Himself in Front of Engine.

Montreal reports to Bradstreet's say general trade is steady in tone, although retail business in spring goods is not yet heavy. Wholesale lines are mov- ing out well and western buying is keep- ing up. The lateness of spring is bound to affect,. the movement of the lighter lines of dry goods, although business so far has been very fair considering the weather. The grocery trade is steady anti the demand for staples 's reperted to be moderately active. All lines of hardware, builders' supplies, etc., are showing a fair amount of activity, al- though the weather has hardly been such as to encourage outdoor work. It is reported fair orders are being placed for British iron. Country trade is steady.

I TWO SUFFOCATED Mother andDaughterKilled by Gas, A Toronto Tragedy That Cost Two Lives. Toronto, March 25. -Mr. Amelia ,Me - Kay -Leeden and her daughter, Lilian, were accidentally asphyxiated at their home, 117 Borden street, some time Saturday night. Both were found dead in bed yesterday morning. Coroner W. A. Graham certified to death from inhal- ing illuminating gas, deciding that noth- ing could be gained by holding an in- quest. The coroner ,in issulng llie certificate, felt the necessity for a warning aaginst the use of gas pipes and brackets with duplicate caps, as this was clearly the cense of the death of Mrs. Leaden and her daughter. Miss Leaden retired quite early on Saturday night. Her mother remained downstairs until the return of a son, Albert J. Leaden, who is employed as an electrician downtown. Before going to bed she made it cup of tea on the gas stove in the bedroom iu win& the daughter was sleeping. The stove was. eonneeted with the gas pipe by a rubber tube. There were two taps: one for the purpose of lighting and the other to sup- ply gas for heating purposes. Itt turn- ing off the gas for the night Mrs, Lea- den, it is believed, accidentally left one turned on sufficiently to allow consider- able gas, to escape. When her husband arose yesterday morning, detecting the smell of -gas, he went to the room °coupled' by mother and daughter and found them both dead. Doctors who live nearby were called in, but were unable to do any- thing. Mrs. Leaden Was the wife of Michael J. Leaden, with the Belle Ewart Ice Company. She 'was about sixty years "old. Her daughter, who also met death, was twenty-seven years old. 1 DAILY BOAT. Steamers May Leave Mont- real Every Day. Montreal.
