San Francisco, Cal., May 4. - The downfall of Oscar Wilde has been a serious blow to the Rev. Kadir Edward Davis, pastor of the Central
Christian Church of Oakland. For a week or more he has been almost frantically busy calling in advertising lithographs scattered throughout California
announcing that "the Rev. Kadir Edward Davis," popularly known as "the American Oscar Wilde," would appear at a certain date and deliver a lecture. It is
a ticklish time for the esthetic clergyman. He no longer wears a sunflower and is struggling with the temptation to cut his long hair. He has had new
plates prepared for his display lithographs, and hereafter he will be proclaimed merely as "the versatile gentleman." For years Mr. David traveled over
the United States announcing himself as the "American Oscar Wilde," a designation given him by an Eastern paper. The Rev. Dr. Davis is the preacher who
gave an impersonation of Richard III. in the pulpit, and before the criticism upon his introduction of the drama to emphasize his sermons had spent itself
Parson Davis danced through a sermon to illustrate the harmlessness of the waltz.
San Francisco, May 4. -- The downfall of Oscar Wilde has been a serious blow to the Rev. Kadir Edward Davis, pastor of the Central

the United States announcing himself as the "American Oscar Wilde," a designation given him by an eastern paper. Wherever he lectured his lithogrophs
appeared in windows informing the people that American Oscar Wilde had arrived in town and would lecture.
