That all our grief at once to gladness turns tI lovo to think that all our angols hold

• • Tho Humility of Truo Groatnoss.Tho hesitancy of men to undertake re ­

ligious work does not always spring, us wo aro apt to think, from indifference. I t Is often the result of self depreciation and a mistrust of one’s ability to do tljat work as i t should be done. When, In the shadows of Iloreb, God met Moses und announced H is purpose of sending him to deliver I lls people from Egypt, tbe reply of Moses w as: “ W ho am I, th a t t should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth tlie children of Israel out of E jjypt?1’ It

. was not that Moses was indifferent to the distress of his kindred or that he did not long ft)r tlieh' deHyerauce that ciiused liiiiv

•;; 'to shrink back, .;I I i s : hesitancy 1 ri' tinder-; V tak ing the work' to whicii GotV called .him ;;:.arose-:frbin 'the. oppressive sense that he .

had of his own weakness and an utter mis- : trust of his own pow ers/ *

Aud this danger of over self-deprecia­tion, instead of decreasing with experience

. aud ability* is likely to increase with in­crease of -both. . I t Is not usually the oue who Is unfitted for a . great work who doubts his abilty to do it. I t is rather the one who'Is thoroughly capable who needs

. to . be encouraged, and who is likely to hesitate from the sheer reason that he be­lieves him self unequal to the responsibil-

•' lty . • • •Of true worth, hum ility is always a sign.

I t is iu the ascent of every height, w hether mental or spiritual, as It is the clim bing of some great.mountuln. W hile standing at the foot, the unconscious comparison which wo aro ever m aking between ourselyes and the objects w ithout us does not bring into prominence the fact of our own little- ness. The pieces of rock whicii have tumbled down from the cliffs above, tbp stunted shrubbery at the base, do not re-

• proach us, for we feel ourselves to bo. greater than they. B ut with each step lu the ascent there comes an Increasing sense of our own littleness, and every voice that speaks from th e giant rocks and the lim it­less outlook- but rem inds us of how little we are. -But when this Benue ia most op.

. pre&sive tlie range of our vision Is greatest and our knowledge of the surrounding country the most accurate. A hum iliating consciousness of. his own littleness the ono who stands a t the base may not have, but he does not have it because of his more lim ited outlook.

I t is so as we have said in respect both of spiritual and mental qulllfications. The halfeducuted man .Is always to bo known by his Belf-confldeuce and presumption. I t was Newton, ripe In experience and knowledge, who sa id : “ I am but a littlo

.• child piuyltig with' the pebbles on Vtlie Shore.” /T h e; Pharisee, known by all but him self as a moral pigmy, 'speaks of his self ’denials and of w hat he has made out o f him self; Paul,-; returning frotri the scenes of his earthly coofiicts, the tried anil worn, veteran of JesuS, stiys ;v VI count not'm yself to have’apprehended; , but this one th ing I •' do, forgetting those -things

.Words of Cheer. ,Words of cheer are words of help..

Words of gloom are words of harm. There Is a bright side and dark side to every phase o l life, and to every hour of time. I f we speak of the bright side, we bring the brightness into prominence. If. wo speak of the dark side, we deepen its

. shadows. It is In our power to help or to hinder by a word any. aud every person w hom , we are w ith.' I f we seo a look of ■ h e a lth .o r o f hope in the face o f an ac- quulntnqce whom we casually meet, and

, Wa tell him SO, he go e s o n li i a" w ay with new life in his veins.. .I f We see a look of

‘-falling 'strength and ofMioa yiness, of heart - in one-to wliom we speak,..and we. empliii- slze the. fact'that' he looks poorly, we give

.him a push down ward as our contribution . t r t h e forces which affect his course. A

look or a .word can help or can harm our.

follows. I t Is for us to give cheer or gloom us wo paes on our way In life ; und we aro responsible for the results of our Influence accordingly. — Sunday-school Times. ' . • / ..

The Pilgrim Mothers.In what penury, what hardship, whiit

sense of exile, what darkness of bereave- ment, w hat dependence - upon the Divine’ hand and- gratitude for Its bounty, were the earliest Thnnksglvihgs kep tl The story of the Plym outh colony can never be. too often recalled by Americans. F o r un complaining fortitude, for sturdy endur­ance, for Btrength tliat knew no faltorlng, for splendid faith and undaunted heroism, that story litis no equal on tho page of his­to ry . .

Longing. .We are-so created that wltliin us Is the

spirit of somothlng we call longing. The heart of man reaches out for that which is “ just beyond;” Who can call him self content with what he Is? Nay, there are none of us but are living out of our pres­ent and Into our future through the invls- Ible force of the power within us. We may not.be content—we must. grow. We w ere less than miln and more like an in- animate block of clay would wo ignore tho sp irit within us- Give It freo scope, and i t will give us wings w ith which to soar.

But what Is this moving force of our nature? To define It, i t must mean .“ reach­ing out.” I t is the sp irit of discontent striving with our content. We cannot call it wishing, for that Is but to want without the power to lmve; nor yet hoping, for hope is but expectancy, with thesom e tim e thoiigh t of reach 1 ng, the goal we .-are' striv-; ing 'for.;. . I t is Something even more.potent. tiiab these, more Inteuse, more urgent. I t is the power .behind the will, to do and to. dare and to be,. ' I t lifts us up and bears us oh war d ; In tlie ill r ect I on Vwe wo ul d g o . . ■ As o u r longing is, so Is .our Ufe. ./W e are eI ther the rich e r or more I nvpoyerished.; ; •. T h e aspirations of men are as various as their lives. .Alen: long for tgold,-and -they get .

They .have thein, many o f them, for they have won them ;' They .kuow best If the problem wits well worth the solving, Others for culture, and culture Is knowledge, delight, a never ending well from which to draw forth pleasures Innumerable. .

But there Is the longing that lends us out of the poverty of se lf .o u to f the greed of gain/into the h igher plane of nobility,' which is nobility of soul and of self, of mind and of heart. Is there not a longing for it? And if tho longing'grows wo also will grow with It. Since we.m ust.needs grow, why not into something better than we are? I t must bo what tlie poet meant when he gave us to understand that long­ing was God’s w 111 st ri y I n g ’with; o u rs. • I t w ore but a poor record of us to live-only ft starved' life—a poor, maimed life, narrow and; selfish, because the longing which every hum an soul has for better th i rigs was not heeded l • .

The Golden Rulo.If the teachings of the Golden Rule

were closely interwoven w ith-every-act and word, our lives wovjkl throw out a continual radiance that would lighten the path of every one who came In contact with u s . . To do good to every one, hoping for no return, happy only In the blessed consciousness that we are perm itted to throw a ray of sunshine across another’s path—how -beautiful a service would the most o rdinary life’become.

Substance, Not Shadow.BY UEV. T. M. rilllFKITH, D. I).;'

M any think of the departed soul as sim ­ply disembodied spirit. Is it not both Scriptural and sensible to suppose, on the contrary, that the soul shall, inhabit some kind of ethereal iind celestial body ? All the appearances of departed souls have beon In human form. All angelic mani­festations have been in .. tlio likeness of men... There are no ghosts, no phantoms, no shadows, iu Bible history.

Why thay not the material body give place to an ethereal yet substantial enswathemeut in which the soul shall exercise its immortal powers? According to the laws of embryology, a nucleated body Is in the ovuui; and the ovum is encased in a follicle, and the fol- liclo in an enclosing cell, atid the cell in the body Itse lf; so why miiy not this nu- cleajted body contain the germ, of an im. mortal body,.to be developed with advanc­ing life and toensw athe the.departing soul wlien this■ life is ;ended .'. £ s sun 11ght cu 1-' tlvates eyesigiit . so th e etornar.forces de­velop spiritual vision which s.hall .discern the forms; b f the- shlriiUg -ones^.when sur­prised eyelids are lifted to the lig h t/ .

W llford Hall, called “ The Problem of Life.” In a book written by Rev. T. A. Gopdwin, “ The Mode of Man’s Im m ortality,” the author quotes approvingly from “ Credo ” theso beautiful sentiments:

“ Is there not an instinctive demand In human nature for a body to dweil in? Who can think of the future life with pleasure without thinking of it as organized ? The Idea of a purely spiritual existence, tin- embodled, thusi'to jast 'forever, is painful and', repulsive.;'; The hut lira I Idea, we/have' of a disem bodied1 spirit; is th iit of a .wan­dering ghost; .

But there is . never n time when tlio sea Is empty of fish. Even so In winning souls. If It is a successful business-it must be an. every­day business, and not “ according to feel- Ings.” But there are all sorts of men and tdl sorts of ways to get at'them , and there are times of great Ingatherings, and times when we must patle'ntly w ait for them, drawing tlieni In one by one. But there is . never a time, when there are no souls within reach, To catch men he must know them, as fisherriieu know fish.— Central Pre&bytcrUin.

W hatever may be the precise Import of that sentence, •“ The kingdom of heaven . siiffereth violence, and the violent take It by force,” It is very evident therefrom that nothing really religious Is to be gained.by apathy, but only by the vigorous exertion of all our powers; not by waiting, but by assault; not by expecting God to do every- thing for us, but by promptly, continu-. ously and fully doing our part; not always by carrying on a war of defence, but "by assumlug the oitensive.whenever requ ired ; not by lazily encamping for a long siege, • but by advanclug on the enemy,— Christian Statesman•' .:

Many of us are prone to discourage­ment. We are aware of . our own exist­ence und weakness, but take little a c c o u n t'. of the Divine Being nnd holpfulnesss, ; .We know about the forces of this world, but take smali reckoning of those of the other. Earth Is present and dominant; Heaven forgotteu.or left out of view. We recognize the trials, miseries hnd disor-.' ders of this life, but are deaf to heavenly harmonies.. The consequence Is we are depressed and disturbed, like m en , who. . take cognizance of ’dllllcuUieH without, considering tlie irresistible forces that are available for their.assistance.—The Helper.

A life of sin, a life of pride, a life of ■ Indulgence, a life of worldiineSs, a life devoted to the world> tho .llesh and the devil is a failure, h .dead failure, an lnfU ‘ rtlte failure... .

Action on Uro,’ Button’s paper was de­ferred for one. week, meanwhile the re ­porters, and as one of tho speakers called certain editors, “champion liars” of tho press,- woro furnished, with m aterial enough for sensational articles In a num­ber o f the city papers which aro always on the (jut ticc for anything like a scaudal connected w ith Ocean Grove.

All; participants a t the recent .fairs were more or less perturbed by dying rumors.The hook and ladder boys -thought, the county jail would soon scoop them all in, and iu feverish anxiety all looked forward to the. next Preachers' Meeting, and its action on tho paper. T he D aily Press sent its editor over, and the first thing the preachers tried to. do was to sit on him.But ho managed’to get nearly three col­umns out of the debate.

The resolutions denouncing chances, prizes and all sorts of lottery scheming were passed, ond-some of the brethren proposed -In the name of good order and righteous law to read them, in tlieir pul- pits. The upshot most probably will be that those infatuated with fairs—either church, firemen’s or county, will be more careful In the future to keep out of the clutches of the grand jury, which Mr.Batten thinks would be bound to indict the man, woman or boy. who took a chance in the. hope to win a prize, whether a doll, baby or. a cabinet organ.

Over one thing, tlie Preachers’ Meeting may possibly assume .some consequence— they have stirred up a t a very dull season for news quite a racket in the city papers, b u t it won’t hist long. Tbe thing would have occasioned little if any notoriety if Ocean Grovo had not been somehow mixed up In it.' :

Mrs. Caroline J,.'3ancraot.A brief.note in this paper some weeks

ago inforlned our readers of tlie departure, after an eventful and - useful life, of Mrs. Caroline J ., widow of the late Rev. George C. Buncroft, both of whom have been well and favorably known for inatiy years p ast as residents of Ocean Grove. T he memo- ruudn'at baud relating -to Mrs. Bancroft; sots forth, that she was born a t Caldwell, N . Y., Ju ly 0,1827, and finished her course a t the residence of h e r daughter, Mrs. G. O. Iloblnson, Detroit, M ich., Oct. &, 1804.

She was taken early In life to tho Sabi- -bath-school, and grew up in the strict, plain ways of early Methodism. 'F ro m chlid hood she manifested a deeply relig­ious nature, and a .sense of her responsi­bility to God so deeply impressed her that she could not rest until-slid sought and ex perlenced through regenerating grace, a new heart. '•• She was endowed with a keen iind b ril­liant intellect, iind (luring tiie period of her youth, availed herself of every oppor tunity to satisfy her thirst for knowledge. The habits (if car.eful and varied reading, earnest thought, and- especially tho study of God's word, remained with her.through her entire after life...

At tlie age of 10 years;she became the wife o f a noted. M ethodist itinerant, her husband a t that time was a member of the New. York E ist Conference, but after­wards became • connected with tho Troy Conference. O f..the latter body he was an honored ' m ember a t tho tim e of his death,.which occurred a t Ocean Grove In 1890. D uring these- 44 years sho main­tained her highly responsible position with singular devotion in tho work of the church, aud'tlio duties of her hom e; for at the tim e of her m arriage she. assumed tlio relation of m other to three of her hus: band's, cjiildreq, two of whom survive her —M rs. Dr. C. C. Bradbury, of Sim Fran cisco,, and -Miss H enrietta A. Bancroft, at present j)iofessor .of -.Englls’j in Albion College^ Albion, Slichigan.

She was also the mother of three chil­dren, two of whoiri dled In early life, and one widely known as Jane. M. Bancroft, now Mrs. George O.-Koblnson, Is lo ft to m ourn her tleparture; These surviving children owe to her exaiuplb the stim ulus whicli led them to seek advanced ediica- tional develojvnent.

As a pastor’s wife Mrs; Bancroft’s sym­pathies not only took in the things Imme- dlutely. around h e r; but broadened out to tho widest possible.sphere. D uring the civil war-she took a deep interest in the welfare of our soldiers, and with her.hus­band spen t-th ree months in W ashington

• Revival Agencies,Jjet us look a t some bf the practical

agencies to. be employed In a genuine re ­vival of religion. There should be public meetings for the purpose. In- arithm etic two and . two. are four, In ' the spiritual world two and.two are five. Tbe disciples in the upper room, were with ono accord In ono place when the Iloly Ghost came. Ho is very likely to reveal Him self to a sim ilar gathering now. The pastor should havo charge of these riicetlugs. I t Is quite popular in somo 'placeB to set the pastor aside and employ a professional evangelist to take his place.- These.evangelists, like, pastors, are of various shades of ability and grace. . Some advertise themselves like the advance agent of a circus; preiich question­able doctrines, exhibit a prodigious ability for . numbers in counting converts, abuse, th e . m inisters of the 'p lace who do* not ( come under their* banner a n d . -work with their methods, charglug th a t they are fight­ing, against tho H o ly Ghost, blessing a town like a forest fire does a forest; like a hurricane does a fleet Other evangelists- are modest, • brilliant, consecrated, affec­tionate, and .bring untold blessings to the. church and the world.. I t should be with extreme caution that even ;the most bril­lian t and holy evangelist should be allowed to push tlie pastor from the throne of spir­itual influence on* which God or the church has placed him. When tho oflleers of,tho church, even witli tlie consent of his will, ask a . pastor to stop aside for the profes- slonal leader, they withdraw oven Iu their own minds ii part of that respect arid affec­tion which belong to him who does the bard work of the year In getting, ready for the revival,- nnd w ho .has to risk the peril of the reaction a f te r .it Is over. . If they, would give their- pastor aa. much money and tim e for tlie meetings as they have to pruiulse tho visitor, the result would in the long run be more satisfac­to ry /. Their m inister should have a deep Hollcitudo for souls, which should bo shared by the. members of the church. There should be much .use riiade*:o f tho Bible In a revival; the .minister should believe it profoundly from first, to last. He who hunts for errors iu it will not find many souls; Tlie m inister should preach short sermons. 1 fe should not fail to preach the severe side of tlie 'truth u part o f the time. I f .there is a lack in Hie evangelism of to- day it Is the want of-a deep conviction of sin, such a conviction as follows the preach­ing of ‘‘ righteousness, temperance and a judgment^ to come.”. Sinners are some- tlu\e? addressed as though' it would be a com plim ent to the Al mighty, a favor to the piistor and an honor to tbo.churcb for them .to become converted. *

The enormity of sin, the brevity of life, the terrible realities o f eternity aro themes that will convict the cultivated as Well as uncultivated if they are preached with the power of the Holy.Ghost. The mild side of fhe tru th should ulso be preached; tlio love o f : God, the srcrlfice of Christ, tho pleadings of tho Spirit^ the beauty of holi ness, tiie glory of heaven and the certainty of salvation. by fidth In Christ. Thero should be tesiltnoriy given by tlie meni-. bers,. especially, b y . the young converts; there should .dlso be as much lay exliorfa- tlon and instruction as possible. Earnest, prevailing prayer bn tho part of tbe pastor, and people is indispensable to the success of a revival.—b \ C. Tfjlehart, p . J) . .

bo almost diametlcally.against tho prayer being answered. By way of Illustration, what would bo thought of a farm er who would utterly disregard the laws.relating to agriculture ; who would.fall to have the ground properly prepared, caro nothing about the qualljy of the seed, nor the time of planting,; and ye t expect a t the proper tim e an abundant harvest? W hat verdict would there be. concerning the business man who in these, aggressive day^ failed to properly advertise his wares, or left tlie conduct of h is business to .bis omployds whilst ho was riding behind fast horses or spending liis time In .somo other form bf am usement which took him away from his store ? W hat about the m other who speut ber tim e Iu nn almost unceasing round of fashionable folly, whilst the children were relegated to tlio care of servants V Would not tho universal verdict' bo that, the par­ties cited had no more righ t to expect suc­cess lu the ir spoclal lines than the man trusting his hand in tho .fire should expect not to have i t burned V So hmg as,’ shall wo sayj the largo num ber of thoso who are on our church' rolls are absorbed lu world- llness, 1 fail to. see how we can look for widespread revivals. I bellevo' that in answer to tbo importunate prayer of somo of God's faithful oues, even when tho church Is almost sunk in worldliness, the S p irit is poured out, but whilst conceding this 1 atill m aintain that His operations1 is . very much bettered by the conditions of things. I f electricity, however powerful, requires that the instru­ment In its conveyance be properly Insu­lated; if steam hsw over'potent demands that the boiler bo free from any antagonr istlc element In order to do its. work suc­cessfully, so In tho spiritual realm , w hat­ever influence or ageucy m ilitates against tbe Spirit of God will have to be removed before, “'th e word ’can have free course, run and be glorified.” -.’

And as with* the church collectively, so Individually. ]\Iany professing Christians in bearing a wide-awake, out and outcblld of God glvo a glowing testimony, long for the pence and assurance of thb latter, and ye t are not willing to pay the price. Whilst it is blessedly true that grace is free, it is one of the Divine paradoxes that there tiro also conditions. W hen a man or woman makes nn Intelligent and unre­served surrender-' so that the Holy Ghost has the righ t of way, the. results are such as to make the subject a surprise to himself

In oue of the books, of Prof. Drum­mond :'tho author ably and comprehen- sively elaborates the thought, that there is such a thing ns “ natural law in the spirit- uni world.” Many otherwise thoughtful and Intelligent Christians apparently en- tlreiy ignore this fact. ; For example, you hear them pray.for a revival (in the spirit­ual senso of an awakening of the uncon­verted) when the couditlons are such'as to

Literary'Notes.Since tbe clriso of tbe civil war Harvard

University lias more than quadrupled its resources in the sum of its endowments attdMhe num ber of. its teachers, uud its list of Students, has-increased In something like the same proportion, ‘ Tlio libraries of tbe. university Include -about' 4^6,000 volumes, an. aggregate surpassed In this country only by the library of (JongrCss and the B«)ston Public Library. The prin­cipal reasou for the lack of success of Harvard men in intercollegiate games is the fact that .there no longer exists In the university the social pleasure which may compel an able bodied student, against his better judgm ent, to devote overmuch of his tim e to acquiring professional skill in athletics. I t Is furtiier observed by Prof. N. S. Shuler, from whoso article in l ia r , per's Weekly for November 24 the fore­going statements aro drawn, that the need of highly differentiated instruction has be­come so great that the university has been compelled rapidly to increase tho number of its Instructors until the list of last year Included tho names of three hundred aud twenty-two such persons,- or ■ about one teacher to each ten students. .

There is a comic Thanks- giving story called “ Mr. Gobbler’s Story,” by R. R .M unklttrlck, Illustrated by X’eter Nowell; there is a boys’ Thanksgiving story aud a girls’ Thanksgiving s*.ory. Tho special feature of the iiumbei is a J'jng play with songs and music and verse, with complete descriptions for giving tho play. The title is “ TheConquest o f S.mta Claus, a Christmas Entertaininent,” by .Caroline A. Creevey and M argaretE Sangster..The general trend of tin* play Is.humorous, the situutiori being that Santa Claus this year i hits -made up bis- mind tlnit ho Is top old to go about giving presents; but, as he delays to start,.delegations from dif­ferent parts of the world come to him bog­ging him to go on his annual journey— m all.carriers,m essenger boys, telegraph boys, elves of the wood, fairies, Christmas tree sprites, knights of the snow-plough, and delegations from the particular Sun­day school which is giving, the play. To all these ho gives a ■' negative answer, but, after all' these refusals, ho is. finally, per- sunded-by a delegation from a city m ls'ion school, who so work on his sympathies In behalf of tlio poor children of thb world that lie. finally decides to go.- T his play is intended to be given in a hall, or, per- itaps, the room of tho church used by the Sunday,school, where there Is' u sually 'a stage, room for a piano, atid for seating u large num ber of people.‘ Cj S.

The personnel o f the quar- totto consists of four of tiie most genial gentlemen ono usually meets in social life. Rev. C. JI. Mead is still the utility man of the company. Ills lec tu re-at every con­cert is worth double the ordinary admis­sion to hear; for it is usually an eitort-of irresistible iiumor, tender pathos, nnd logic ou fire lu denunciation of tho license sys- tora.

T he subject of municipal reform is bo- ing agitated extensively in all the boss ruled and olllcially robbed cities of tho land; nor has the excitem ent,passed .by this supposed centre of “ Brotherly Love.” Preachers fairly opened their theological batteries on Thanksgiving day, on tho covert and pestiferous gam bling dens, “ 8peak.easIos,” aiid other incongruities, of decency and order. Large meetings havo been called, and both tho clergy and laity have toed ;thb mark when .advocates of purity and honest governm ent hnve been called to, tho front. Thanks to the old “ Committee of Ono .H undred,” and Its grund work .years ago, there is no trouble In maintaining organized vigilance . in political jobbery, nnd nil other liabilities to abuse except, perhaps,, th is despotic power called Traction or Trolley which Is now supposed to own tho city, and has be­come dictator general o f w hat the public must bellevo and obey. . •

Speaking of reform aod Its abettors thero Is such a degree of admiration felt for tho name of. Dr; Parkburst, grow ing out of. his achievements against all odds, in New York,, that overtures are bolng made to him to show himself here, and give us a specimen of the .so rt of preach­ing which has knocked Tammauy into something like the shape of n battered hat. Unless lie has put down his foot very de­cidedly against personal notoriety, he will have to yield and give Philadelphia ti lecture at tho Academy of Music! Should he come, lie has only to name tho amount o f traveling expenses, etcM and he will re- colve the cash down, with thauks into the bargain. . -

Thunksglvlng festivities have, to a great exteut, controlled society during tho woek. In this so called city of homes thero is, of course, more of tlio liomestlc sp irit than one would expect to flud in New Y ork; but neither there nor. here has the true genulus of the Now. England. Thanksgiv­ing over obtained full sway. O f course, for form’s sake churches aro opened, con­gregations unite—two, three or four' of them In one church, uud even then tho, audience is not large, while the discourse Is very apt to be of .a seuii-pollficul flavor, and the music of an operatic tone. Since this abomination of football pluying has usurped attention bn the Nutlonal holiday, religious observances with a sadly large part of the community has beeri relegated to tho background.; A very delightful scene wns presented 1ft Nutntorlum Iiall, South Broad street, on Monday evening, at tiio inauguration of the ladles’ fair, under tho auspices of Rev.

Too Theatrical.Less than tw enty.years ago a bronze

statue of a distinguished cavalry officer was unveiled at W est Point, on tho Ilud* 1 son. I t represented tho dashing ofilcor in a defiant and threatening attitude In tho act of charging on a sanguinary foe, pre­sumably a bund bf hostile Indians.

A few years afterwards, whon passing tho Identical spot every trace o f tho statue was gone. Its cost Avas probably $15;000 or $20,000. Meeting an officer, I inquired wbat'had become of it? H e repiled It had been stored away in some obscure shed! And upon asking a reason for its removal, bis larconlc, yet pregnant reply, was “too theatrical.” . •

W hile in New York a few days ago, . largo engravings were suspended in m any windows representing a lawyer (with a m ilitary title) in the act of addressing an audience In ono of the theatres. H is theme, as announced, was “The .Bible." Prom pted solely by curiosity, I wended my way toward the entrance to “ The Star.” .H a lf an hour before tho tim e for beginning the proposed tirade of mingled scorn, sarcasnr and scurrility, tbe sidewalk was thronged and the capaclQUS corridor well • nigh a wedged, mass of,- struggling humanity. Exorbitant prices were freely ' paid for eligible seats. In soriie cases $2 50 and $3. Boxes of course still h igher. Close Inspection of the surging, jostling multitude revealed the lamentable fact that a large m ajority were ostensibly cul­tured people, and many, alas 1 were of the gentler sex—all rushing in to lend “ aid and com fort” to one who has grown rich; not .only by his superb oratory,-but also b y his bold attempts to underm ine and shutter the best system of - morulity tho world has ever seen.

Crntem platlng such a scene, on a Sab­bath evening, ono could not help exclaim*/ iug (mentally If not aloud), “ Too theatri- cal, too theatrical! Away with such A scan* dal I1’ Aftor all, who is most to bb blamed for t-ucli u wanton desecration; such a col- lossal bravado, the eloquent orator or. the cultured ladles and gentlemen who rush so wildly lo hear, him ?

Tho most astounding fact connected with this superlative blasphemy and thea* - trlcul display is thut they occurred imme- , dintely after u iuiigniliceut .victory over tho entrenched aud defiant forces of c o r - . ruptlon; a victory in which the Biblo and its supporters boro not only a conspicuous but a memorable part. Yes, und It Is fair to assumo that the infidel orator himself voted with the champions o f the Bible.

* Day by day, and night, unoonscloiiBly,Tho heart lives by th a t fuitb tlio Itpa deny.”

In “ Tho Tim e of the Lotus,” published in the Christmas H a te r 's , Alfred Parsons presents a charm ing view of tho Japanese summer. The author’s twenty-three illus­trations show a variety of charm ing phases of Japanese life, landscape and architec- tu re ; nod the depcrjptlons are equally pleasing. Nevertheless, according to Mr. Parsons, the Japanese sum m er- has its drawbacks, which' Include:hot and very ’ moist weather, mosquitoes,; and an . even worse little Insect which lives in grass or sand and ariuoys pedestrians.' .

Washington Letter.. Washing ton , D. C., Nov. 21,1894.

. The seventeenth annual m eeting of the Columbia Association'of Baptist Churches was held last week!. The reports made show that the Baptists of tiie District of Columbia are in a thriving condition and that their growth for tho past year, while

' not" phenomenal, 1ms been steady and • healthy. T he total number of Baptists In

the D istrict on October 31,1894, \vns 4,415, .. and tho total num ber of .scholars- in their Sunday-schools 5,402, I t tins long been rem arked . that the Baptists of the N a­tional Capital aro moro than liberal in their contributions for church purposes,

■ and tho past year has been no exception to tho ru le in that respect. A lthough the depression In business m ust have made material reductions in the incomes of many.of tholr members tho total contribu­tions of tho Brtptlst Cliurches for the year

. footed up $97,017.00, J u s t divide that by tho total membership and see if .the. indi­vidual average of contributions isn’t greater than It Is In most churches you know of.-

President Patton, of Princeton College,. filled tho pulpit recently vacated by Dr.

Bartlett laBt Sunday morning and evening, and will do the same next Sunday. Dr. Patton's morning sermon was preached from John 14: 1—" Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also

. iri - mo,” and was a powerful* argum ent against atheism, which ho said was unfor­tunately accepted by a largo num ber of people. Ho told his hearers that we came Into the world with the Idea of God In otlr hearts, and that beyond this wo cannot go; we must have faith In H is exhtence. To inquire further Into tho whys and wherefores would bo as fruitless and sen- slble ob a conference of .flshes to deter- mlno why tho water was there, and how It came, and tho reply would have to be the same in each case. The smallest flsh in. the lot, If he had common sense, would say that the water was all around them , It had always been thore, and through It they had thoir existence. We must have faith in tho existence of God; IIo Is

. nearer to us than our very breath.The close of tho V. M. C. A. week of.

.prayer was, like its opening, made the occasion for,special sermons in a number of the churches. W hat th'fe thum b Is to

i the-right baud,” said Dr. Easton, “ so is the Y. M, C. A. to the Christian Church— it completes tho grip.” He cited that but

, five per cent, of the young men of Amer­ica, are church members aud that 75 per cent, of tliom do not attend church a t nil, to prove the necessity for upholding and encouraging tho Y. M. C, A. in its’efforts to save tho young men, he rend a letter from the secretary of the local assoclution stating that o f the 35,000 white males be* twoen the ages of 15 and 35, In W ashing­ton, but 2,850 held membership in Prot­estant evangelical' churches/ Dr. Ver-. hrycke preached especially against vicious literature,, saying; among other striking th ings: “ Would to God thnt wo might- hang out the yellow Hag and quarantine obscene literature. I t Is ono of the great­est perils to tho youug men of. cities and

■ smaller towns, and the Christian people of America should rise upt iri their m ight and crush, tiie circulation out' of exist­ence ;

Give Him Work,Give the poor man work, and you will

soon find that an hour of work is worth a month of charity ; you : will soon be able to discrim inate between the work-iovlug and work-shunning, and be able to.say to the latter, in the words o f P a u l: “ l ie that will not work shall not eat.’* Give the

. poor man work, and you rid him of his poverty, aud you rid yourselves of. the miseries and diseases aud vices and crimes and dangers arising from -It. Givo the poor man work, aud you raise tlie layer of society immediately above pauperism, for It Is the unemployed masses ready to work for starvation prices to keep from starva­tion, that lower-wages and spread discon­tent and anarchy among the laborers. Give the self-respecting poor man work,; the work for which lie implores you on his knees, and not alms, which lie detests, and which m ake him detest him self for accepting It, and: you not only raise his

. manhood, raise his ambition, .raise his moral, mental and physical health, but you will also do away with two-thirds of your alms giving charities and lesson two thirds of* your charity expenditures.—Rabbi

. ; Heaven,-as we all know, Is 'r io t some special.placo or external cOnditiou; heaven

.Is where love and tru th are, and where they are being realized In life. Heaven Is a;state o f’ man’s thought aud love; it is

• therefore.something that may come into existence with any one a t any tim e in which love aiul truth can come Into exist- euco In Ills heart. W ith auy person, there­fore, the V kingdom of heaven is a t hand” whenever the*«tnte a t' love and tru th and life, which constitute tho kingdom, of heaven, a te a t hand. But, as, tho Lord Is always present with every one,: and is ever seeking with His divine love and wls.' dom to en ter each 1 oue’s heart, heaveu is always lu this way at hand. •

Unbounded courage ' aud •’ compassion joined proclaim him good and great, and make the hero and the man complete.

. "Advice” to a Boy.In.orie of tho large railroad oflices hi tliis

country is a comparatively young man who is at the head of a large department. When ho entered tlie service of the company, five years ago, he was groen and awkward. He was given tho poorest paid work in the de­partm ent;' Tlio very first day (if b is em. ployinent by tho company’, a man who had been at work iu tho sumo room for six years approached him and gave hltn a lit- tie advice: “ Young fellow, I want to put a few words in your ear that will help you. This compauy is a soqlless corporation; that regards its employes as so many .ma­chines, I t makes nn difference how nard you work, or liow well.: So you want to do just as littlo as posslblo and retain your job. That’s my advice. This-is a slave pen, and the man who works overtime or does any specially fine work wastes his strength. Don’t you do It.”

Tho young man thought over the “ ad-, vice," and after a quiet littlo s trugglew ith himself bo decided to do the .best aud tho most he. know how, whether he received any more pay fro til the\cotnpany or /not. At the. end of the year the com pany raised h is wages, and advanced; him to a more responsible position. I n . three years lie. was getting a third more salary than when he began; and In /five years he was head clerk in the departm ent; and the titan who had condescended to give the greenhorn1 “ advice’- was tyorklng under hiuv a t the same figure, that; represented - his salary eieveh years before. •/ This.isYnbt a ’stbry;of’. a goody-gopdy lit­

tle boy who died early; but of a live young ■ man who exists to-day, and Is ready to give

advice” to other.youug men just begin, nirig.to work thel r - way into, busi ness;; arid here It is: ^.W hatsoever thy liaod fincleth to do, do It with thy might.”— Youth's Coin- pnnton. '.

Doing Good.Few of us appreciate our surroundings,

andvantages and friends.. Wo m ay * uot see it now, but some tim e we will IcJok buck and see where we were, bettered by. having been intim ately associated w ith' some true, noble friend. It. is a /duty— tliut o f doing good .to each {other—-that we perform alm ost unconsciously;. : IIoW pleasant to live in this beautiful . world,• with , so many unseen blessings, and yet how many of us th ink we have nothing to llvo for; but how desperately -.would, we cling to life were we culled to part with it. I t wpuld not be so hard to dio a fter all; but it would bo hard to d ie and bo forgot­ten.— Christian'‘Lender. .

a way to school V Tii is Is a very 8<?rtmis question, But more ami . more In this country jW euts uro. asking. tlila question. N ot because the local schools are poor, bu t because of the great advantage that a gooil botmll’ng school bestows upon a clilltl. In the lirst place it- cultivates self-reliance In the.child. Wheti the child

• rem ains a t home .'ambition ts apt to sleep. There . Is a dependence upon father and. mother or others that greatly hinders tlm t independence of purpose and char:

. ncter wliljli Js:s t> necessary to manhood aiid woman jftnd. In this earnest w’orld we cannot ilinkfl headway w ithout sand, and’ grit, atm pu*li, ami purpose, N ot till it'fu lly dawns upon a child th a t after all It dfjpeuds chlelly upon him self or her* self w hether they .shall become anything In the world, will they be likely to take thnt serous .and earnest view of life thut will make 'hard study a deligh t and real success lu life almost certain. . I t is a great change /o r the child to Jenve home and enter a.boarding school. Tlie very ’Impartial, discipline of such a school Is a

• great benefit to u child. I t foreshadows to the child, under most favorable circnin* 6tauces, th a t Im partiality which our.chil* dren, sooner or ^Infer, are sure to experi­ence out In the untried world, that lies tie* fore them: I f they may* w hile yet under

/, tlie len d ercare of good Christian teachers, learn- something of .‘the im partial treat­m ent whicli awaits them out in real life It m ust certainly do much, to prepare them for the stern duty that awaits them. Tho mere mastery of .books is the smallest part of a good education. This may be gotten lu local schools, bu t self reliance is

' no t and cannot be fostered at home, and w hat is an education worth w ithout self* reliance and self-restraint V From the standpoint o f education, what a consplcu* ous place Pennington Seminary has occu­pied in its career of llfty-four yeius! I ts numerous alumni, numbering over ten thousand, and scattered all over th is con* tinent; and many of them iu distant lands, is full proof of tills.

Rev. J . H. Batten's Charges of Gnmbllng atthe Firemen's Fairs Sustained by a Vote

ol the Preacher’s Meeting.There was more than th e usual am ount

o f in terest m anifested in the regular weekly session of tho New Brunswick. District Preacher’s M eeting last Monday morning, from the fact th a t th e series of resolutions introduced by Rev. J , II; Batten, o f W est Grove, charging th a t gambling devices had been used a t the fairs recently held by th e Eagle Hook and Ladder Company in Ocean Grove, and Wesley Engine Company in Asbury Vftrk<

A fter th e regular order o f business had been disposed o f and a motion to exclude newspaper reporters from th e meeting, Imd been discussed and voted down, Mr, Batten took the floor in support o f the resolutions. He read extracts from . the

• law and cited decisions w hich fully sus­tained liis claim, th a t the selling of num ­bered tickets w ith coupons, certain of which were to draw prizes, as was prac­ticed a tlie Eagle Company’s Fair, was a violation of the law now in force to .sup­press gambling, as w as also the selling of chances for the draw ing of a piano, in voguo a t the Wesley fair.

H e took the position th a t under the law th e owner o f the hall in which these games o f chance were operated; if they possessed a p rior knowledge o f th e pu r­pose for which th e premises were to be used were equally guilty w ith th e promo­tors of the schemes, and th a t all peisons who sold tickets for such drawings wero liable to prosecution for the offense. He denounced th e whole system o f petty gambling, such as. railing for turkeys about Thanksgiving time, the many schemes evolved by m erchants in the ir efforts to a ttract trade and w hich to a greater o r less ex ten t were infringem ents o f the lottery act; and strongly arraigned th e moral people, especially those who made a profession.of religion for their active participation in , and encourage­m ent, n o t only of the objectionable fea­tures o f the firem en’s fairs, bu t o f the business houses w hich used the (juestion- able devices to expand the ir business.

The practice of card playing, dancing and sim ilar pleasures on th e part o f pro­fessed members of the M ethodist church was condemned, and he urged tha t action should be taken to discipline all violaters c f tho rules o f th e society.

Itey. J . R. Danieis and George W. Evans, representing th e Association, sup­ported the general purport of th e resolu­tions, bu t m aintained thu t the officials of the" Association granted* the use o f the .ball to the Eagle Fire Company for its. fair, only upon the understanding that noth ing im proper should be conducted therein, and it was not un til after the fair had closed th a t a knowledge o f the acts referred to in th e resolutions were brought to the ir a ttention.

Rev. M ilton Relyea supported the reso­lutions and thought the discussion and publicity given th e m atter, would by making the people familiar w ith th e law, operate to abate, to a great ex ten t, th e evil complained of. • He though t th a t tbe voung men who conducted th e fairs in tro­duced the objectionable features w ithout a knowledge of the fact th a t they were violating the law and should no t be visit­ed w ith too heavy a condem nation for offenses innocently committed.

Rev. J . R. Thom pson supported the resolutions. He had evidently under­gone unpleasant experiences with news-

• paper m en and after in tim ating th a t it was the legitim ate vocation of a newspaper to exaggerate and d istort every item brought to its attention, he fu rther said th a t one of the essentials needed by th e edi­to r o f a big political paper was the qualifi­cation o fa ‘‘cham pion lia r.” H eseverely denounced, the young mon who conducted

. the firemen’s fairs, saying he would not insult tlie ir intelligence by suggesting the idea th a t thoy were no t fam iliar w ith the provisions o f th e lottery law; and said th a t they had violated * i t w ilfully,'and had first deceived th e Association and lied about it afterward.* Rev. H. J . H ayter, Rcv. J . W. Lee,

. Professor Wilson, Kev. W illiam Franklin and others spoke upon the resolutions, after which they were takeii up seriatim for adoption.

A lively discussion followed a motiop to incorporate th e name o f one o f Asbury Park’s business men into th e preamble be­cause he was offering a prize w hich ap ­peared to conllict with the provisions of th e gambling law; and . th e m otion • was finally voted down. Professor Wilson

• argued strongly against the adoption of the am endm ent, claiming i t was the p rin ­ciple and not th e m an tim t should be

.attacked.The resolutions us finally adopted, prac­

tically l»v a unanim ous vote, included an additional item in which I he Ocean Grove Association was exculpated from any knowledge or participation in the offenses; read as follows: - .

C E N T -A -W O R D C O LU M NThe Big Steal.When the exigencies of the Into war

mode -plenty of money necessary for its prosecution, atul multitudes mude fortunes with great rapidity, atul the rage for wealth in a great measure debauched the national conscience atul led to frequent peculations, abuses of trust, alarming frauds and downright robberies, it'was hoped that these were .mere sporadic ca^cs of dishonesty, growing out of the unset- tied conditions of tlie times, and would •disappear as the country settled down to its normal state. But we are constrained to admit that these hopes have not been realized, and that the thirst for dishonest wealth still dominates the minds of a heavy pur centago of tho population, even among those, who constituted what is called good society.;

It is not simply the tramps, bummers, and footpads, who infest dark corners and by-places, for purpose of robbery; nor the growing popularity of the gang, of western outlaws in holding up trains nnd relieving passengers of valuables and loot­ing express safes; but the growing num­ber of trusted employes and . men of ex­ceptional character and standing who fail in the hour of trial, and are found to be thieves and robbers. The last and most striking instaucc of this kind is tlmt of Samuel 0. Seelev,; book-keeper o f th e Shoe and Leather Bank, of New York city, whose plunder .amounts to $054,000- He .wns esteemed an .honorable, upright man, of inexpensive lmbits, giver to no fast and suspicions wavs.. One amazing thing about it,, is that he should have been able, without detection, to take in- small stuns such a large amount of money, the operation* running through a course of years. It suggests loose methods of book-keeping, or slack examination, or both. Another iioticable thing is that the criminal should have profited so littlo. by his stealings, and that another—one Fred­rick Baker—who probably in some way had him in his power, should have-been the recipient ofthe bulk of the plunder.

.Another pregnant circumstance is the fact that this Baker, whose career is any­thing but savory, should have been found drowned, under circumstances which sug­gest suicide,about the same time the book­keeper disappeared, It.is understood the bank lias locatcd if not arrested the guilty ollicer, but whether they, will bring him to punishment, or allow him to goat latge as the Bank of the Republic did the de­faulting Morgan, remains to be seen.

It would seem as though it was time to make such business both painful and dis­reputable, and that the welfare of society ought to be so far regarded as to give the law full course.

One.of the unfortunate features follow­ing the publication of the resolutions re­cently presented to the Preacher’s Meet­ing was" the opportunity thus aflorded the ever watchful metropolitan news­paper to grasp and enlarge upon an item of ne\vs that carries witii it a retlectiou upon Oceati Grove or its management. Why they should be so joyful over the commission of slight offenses, which in other places would awaken, very little or any comment, is difficult to understand.

Many appear to think that because this is a religious resort that its people are not governed, by-the ordinary motives that dominate human nature, and the slight­est infraction of law or custom here ap­pears to be infinitely worse than if com­mitted elsewhere. The standard of moral and religions character of our people may be no-higher than that of other places, but we contend that the governing powers have been markedly successful in controlling or banishing immoral forces and are entitled to more credit and less unjust criticism by the newspapers than has boen accorded them in the past.

The serious charges of gambling and conducting lotteries conveyed in the re 2j - lutiuns referred to, upon investigation, 60 far as the Occan Orove fair was.con­cerned, proves to be nothing more than a numbered ticket of admission to the Hall with a coupon attached wii ich might draw a prize. As the prizes were'trilling in value and no extra charge was made for the tickets on tliat account, theolfeuce certainly was not an aggravated one. The ottieers of the Association had no previous knowledge of the intention to gi ve, or the manner in which these prizes were to be distributed, but nevertheless the Now York and other papers spread broadcast the report that they had by allowing the firemen to use the Hall, countenanced and abetted the conducting of gambling operations.

SATURDAY, DECEM BER i , 1894-

S e r io u s C h arges .

Tho series of resolutions adopted nt the Preacher’s Meeting last Monday morning in whieli tho tlremen of this vieitiitv were charged with operating gambling devices at their; recent fairs, luts aroused consider­able comment nnd some excitement.

Thero can be no question as to. the en­tire propriety of the ellort to abate and suppress violations of the law, but where the olfenses grew more out of want, of thought than a purpose to violate the statute, sound.judgment should prevail us to'the methods decided upon to work

. a reform. Should the resolutions as adopted by the Preacher's Meeting,,with

. tho; recommendation to ilie Presiding Judge to bring the matter before the Grand Jury for thorough investigation bo carried to a logical conclusion; it must result in bringing before tlie courts a large number of people; who, while perhaps technical violators of tho law, were en­tirely ignorant of/the fact that an offense was being committed. \Ve do not oe- lievo for an; instant that the promoters and managers of the fairs in question Were wilful transgressors, but were sim-

' ply following a custom prevalent at simi­lar entertainments for years, and therefore introduced certain features which by a strict interpretation inight be deemed to be illegal.-"Just how far they are amenable be­comes an interesting question. They .have the plea that whatever ofTenee was committed was.done in ignorance. It is said that ignorance of the law excuses n0

-one, and yet how many among the hun­dreds of people ivho purchased the tick­ets or, took chances ou the piano, were conscious that tin illegal act was being committed? Even in the Preacher's Meeting referred to, eovenil of those who voted to adopt the resolutions stated that they had purchased the tickets to the ICitgle Cotnpauy’s fair without a suspicion that anything \yas wrong, even though upon the coupon of the ticket they, bought, • was printed a full list of-the

. • prizes that ’it' was proposed to award.We claim that under such circum­

stances, where the acts complained of had been practiced time und again, under similar conditions without protest or com­ment, that ignorance of the law.is, or should, constitute a sufficient excuse. Submit this same. question to the bright-

, * est lawyers atid 110 one of them would say that the devices in use at the tire-11 ten’s fairs were illegal until lie had first carefully' read and digested the law, studied the operation of the several amendments, and then applied the vari­ous decisions handed.down by learned judges in similar eases.. Are the ordinary

. people, with their time aud attention constantly occupied in other directions

'’•expected to possess a more comprehen­sive knowledge of the intricacies of law than those who. make its. study a profes* j sion !

While in full sympathy with the gen1 j eral idea of .the resolutions, which bv a 1 full discussion and publiWition of the I evils complained of would have prevented I

, a repetition of the offense, we fail to set* that the conditions or circumstances war­ranted, the preferring of charges bf such a serious nature; and consider the attempt to bring the matter before the Grand Jury utterly without justification.

What we need is a campaign of en. lightment and etlucntioh antl not a relent-

•less prosecution which tniist inevitably .work annoyance, discredit arid, in jut v to innocent, people, as fully entitled to con­sideration as the Bret horn of the Preach; ers Meeting, who confessed to the pur­chase of tbe so-called , “ lottery tickets,**

. but in justifiable ignorance of the fact that they were aiding br aMtiim a viola­tion of the law.

• _ ; 1.T iik Asburv Park Daih/ Priw iu its

Thanksgiving Pay. issue eelebnttes. the occasion by one of the most peculiar edi­torial articles oyer published in a news­paper in this vicinity. Tho apparent cause’-of the intemperate outbreak is a

. mild article from the pen of Colonel Yard of the .Monmouth Democrat, commenting upou the tycent publications regarding the proposal to consolidate tiie post ofliee interests of Asbury Park nhd Ovvan Gmve. Without pointing out the clauses in *.ho article to which it objects or at> tempting a reply, it luunehes out into an utterly senseless, jvrsonal attack upon,

. Colonel Yard. Mr. Yard needs no .out­side assistance ;to defend himself from suih insinuations, but we imagine that tbo author of the \PreM article, after turn-, ing on the “ white lightM of quiet reflec­tion, will conclude it hud been better to haVo tilled that editoral column with “ boilerplate’’ insteiVd.
