Miss Helen Adams rendered very beautifully a vocal solo; also a pupil from the Training School. Miss Brown's solo and the remarks of Miss Madre were well received. Prof. Kelly Miller was introduced. He paid a fine tribute to the pastor, Rev Taylor. He introduced a gentleman from Poland, who gave his impressions of the American Negro. Others spoke which concluded the program. The guests repaired to the large lecture room where several well laden tables were set with the most choice viands and beautiful decorations. The supper committee, which consisted of the ladies of the church, deserves great credit. The tables were beautifully decorated and tastefully arranged. At the main table at the head was seated Rev. Norman, at the foot. Rev. Taylor, and on either side were many distinguished guests. The chairman of the Committee or Arrangements, Jabez Lee, is entitled to the highest commendation. It was an event that is long to be remembered. The anniversary was under the auspil JABEZ LEE, ESQ., Chairman of the Committee on Arrangements, who directed the great reception.

Philadelphia, as the logical city for next year's Republican National Convention, received strong endorsement yesterday from Henry G. Wasson, National Committeeman from this State, and recognition of the city's fitness was given by Chapin Brown, National Committeeman from the District of Columbia. Mr. Wasson declared one of his reasons for favoring Philadelphia was the fact that the Republicans of the nation, assembled here, could behold at close range the "splendid accomplishments of a real Republican Governor." These statements were given in response to telegrams sent by the Public Ledger to Republican Committeemen of nearly States, calling attention to National Chairman Hilles' recent letter to the Chamber of Commerce saying that Philadelphia was being considered favorably, and asking whether or not party harmony would benefit by holding the convention in a State where the "back-to-the-party" movement had been so marked. Replies were received from these National Committeemen: District of Columbia.

HENRY G. WASSON. W. P. JACKSON. SHERMAN GRANGER leaders in some of the practical agencies for human uplift. The teachers evince an anxiety to learn, and they have most successfully essayed the role of students for the time being. Captain W. H. Walcott, assistant commandant, has been a visitor at the Panama-Pacific Exposition at San Francisco. Secretary E. J. Scott has returned from a business trip to New York City, to attend the annual meeting of the trustees of the school. While in that region Mr. Scott visited Boston, to look over the prospects of the coming session of the National Negro Business League. He reports the outlook most favorable for the banner meeting of the League. Dr. Booker T. Washington delivered two addresses to large audiences at Atlanta on the 4th and spoke to the great Anti-Saloon League Convention at Atlantic City, N. J., on the 7th. The daily papers highly complimented these speeches. The Atlanta address emphasized the opportunities of the Negro in the Southland, and the Atlantic City deliverance dealt with the evils that beset the race through intemperance. In both he urged economy, thrift, industry, practical education, and upright living. J. R. E. Lee, corresponding secretary of the National Association of Colored Teachers, is busy rounding out the details of the 12th annual session of the organization, which is to be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, from Wednesday, July 28 to Sunday, Aug. 1. The subjects listed on the program cover a wide range of educational activities, and the speakers are representatives of the best thought of the day. The faculty of Tuskegee Institute is liberally represented on the program. E. T. Atwell is discuss "Business Training," Booker T. Washington, Jr., will present a "Stereopicon Talk on Rural School Improvement," and R. R. Taylor will tell of "Trade Work in Schools." The new magazine form in which "The Student" now appears is well liked. The double quartet and the quintet now on the road as "The Tuskegee Folk-Song Singers," are making a favorable impression everywhere they appear. Capt. Alvin J. Neely is in charge of the former and Charles Winter Wood is acting as manager for the latter. The Victor Talking Machine has had a number of the selections of these singers reproduced in the records made by the company, and at some points the men sing their songs and have the Victrola follow them to permit comparisons. The student-body enjoyed its annual "social" in Tompkins' Dining Hall on the 5th. The Tuskogee Club was recently organized, with J. W. Oveltree as temporary chairman. Only persons who graduated twenty or thirty years ago are eligible to membership. The temporary roster includes Augustus Perdue, Mrs. Celia Macdonald Watkins, Mrs. Viola A. Oveltrea, Miss Mary Harris, J. W. Oveltrea, and Mrs. C. V. Goldwire. It is the purpose of this organization to enlist the active interest and co-operation of all eligible graduates and bring about a permanent organization, which shall help to spread the Tuskegge spirit throughout the South. Miss Hazel Schloss, of the faculty of the Academic Department, and Joseph R. Fugitt, manager of the dairy, were married a few days ago. Both resigned to go to Waterloo, N. Y., where Mr. Fugitt has taken care of his father's farm. The Leo Strassburger Prizes, two of ten dollars each, to the student who makes the most progress in vocal and instrumental music, were awarded to Lucile Galloway, of Montgomery, Ala., and Clarissa Scott, of Tuskegge Institute. The budget of expenses for next year calls for an expenditure of $291,567. The report for the year just closed showed total receipts from all sources to have been $379,708.83. The endowment fund is now $1,570,214. The enrollment of students showed 1,537 from 32 States and 19 from foreign countries. Through the courtesy and generosity of the Art Institute of Chicago, the scholars recently came into possession of one of the oil paintings of the late William A. Harper. Mr. Harper was regarded as second only to the famous Henry O. Tanner as an artist, and his untimely death is deeply depicted by the race. The painting adorns one of the buildings on the campus. Mrs. Portia Washington Pittman, with her three children, Sidney, Booker and Fannle, have been recent visitors. Mrs. Pittman is located at Dallas, Texas, where her husband, W. Sidney Pittman, has built up a large business as an architect and builder. She is an expert pianist, and rendered several selections in the chapel while here. Monroe N.

Boston's Progressive Citizens Completing Elaborate Preparations to Entertain Delegates and Friends Who Are to Come in August. Boston, Mass., July 22.—The business forces and the citizens generally are co-operating heartily in the movement to extend a rousing welcome to throng of delegates and friends who will come to the Hub August 18, 19 and 20, to attend the sixteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League. The details are being closed up rapidly, and everything is getting into shape for the entertainment of the visitors from all over the country. The Boston Local Negro Business League, under guidance of Mr. Philip J. Allston, is leading in the work, and they are sending announcements far and wide, outlining the particulars, and placing due emphasis on the manifold attractions offered by the "City of Inspiration"—the "Cradle of American Liberty." No city in the Union has so many charms for the student of history, who wishes to know at first hand something of the early beginnings of the country in which we live. In no city in the land has the Negro more concrete achievements illustrative of the commercial and intellectual possibilities of the race. To Meet in Convention Hall. It has been arranged to hold the regular meetings of the League in Convention Hall, Garrison and Botolph streets, the best place of its kind in Boston. Ample provision has also been made for the sessions of the numerous auxiliary bodies of the National League, such as the Press, the Undertakers, the Bar, the Insurance, the Retail Merchants, and other associations, which meet simultaneously with the parent body. Visits have been arranged to the points of historic interest, and opportunity will be afforded the delegates to look over the many business enterprises conducted by the colored men and women of Boston. On the evening of the 20th a magnificent banquet in honor of the delegates and their families will be given as the closing event of the week's round of business and pleasure. It is said that this function will outstrip anything of a similar character that the "Hub" has ever given. The guarantee fund is of substantial quality, and assures lavish hospitality for all who come. The general headquarters of the League is 121 Kendall street, where delegates should have their mail addressed. The program for the regular session of the League is rich and varied, and every line of commercial endeavor in which our people are engaged will be capably represented. Mr. Emmett J. Scott in Town. Mr. Enimett J. Scott, the efficient secretary of the National Negro Business League, was in the city a few days ago, and saw for himself the conscientious manner in which the local committee is handling the situation. He conferred with the several committees and delivered an excellent address to a large audience of substantial business men and women at Hotel Melbourne, fully 200 being present. Mr. Scott's talk gave a very clear outline of the aims and purposes of the National League, and showed how the local leagues of the vicinity may best co-operate in the work of making the Boston meeting the biggest and best of the long series of meetings that have been held since 1900. The "Hub" awaits the coming of its distinguished guests." HOTEL DALE. Cape May, N. J. List of guests at Hotel Dale: Miss Lavinia Hampton, Freehold, N. J.; Maurice Cecil Clifford, Washington, D.

One of the prettiest card parties of the season was given by Miss Alice G. Hall, of Baltimore, in the reception room of the Hotel Dale. The decorations of stately palms and fragrant cut flowers formed an artistic setting for ladies in their beautiful evening gowns. A delicious supper was served at 11:30, after which the terpsichorean art held sway.

Charley Dickens’ “Death of Lit- hue Nel" is mighty pathetic. Old ‘Vicky Hugo's description of the Battle of Waterloo is so graphic that a fellow ‘can see the Little Corporal givin’ of {his orders, and can hear old Welling- ton hollerin’. “Gwang, boys, and shoot ‘the liver out of the absinth fiends.” ‘And old Giovanni Bocaccio's story About La Finmmetta is so realistic [that you can almost fmnagine that, a soulmate or an affinity is just the ‘thing for a blaze fellow like Dr. Sum { Wormles ‘or dim Cobb or Doc Will Davis, or some of these other lonely Myachelors. But when Tom Clark gets Hto describing this here world-war he's | pot all these old literary spungess like | Gharley Dickens, Vicky Hugo, Gio Boc- ‘eaecio just naturally backed off the hoards.

What the Temple Typified—Double Antitypes—Their Dedication—King Solomon's Prayer—God's Personality. "The Glory of the Lord Filled the Temple"—Its Antitype. "My House shall be called'a House of Prayer for all people."—Lechiah 567. FULL of appreciation of God's promise that King David's successor should build the Temple for which David had long made preparation. King Solomon speedily gave attention to the matter. In the fourth year of his reign the Temple was begun, and seven and a half years later was ready for dedication. Strange to say, it was dedicated about a month before completion. Doubtless this contained some important typical lesson. We are interested in Solomon's Temple more than in any other building because it was also a type. (1 Corinthians 3:16; 2 Corinthians 6:16). In the picture which the Apostle suggests, the Church corresponds to the Tabernacle rather than to the Temple. God was with the Israelites from the time they entered into a covenant with Him, and He Indicated His Presence by the Shekinah Light in the Most Holy of the Tabernacle. So from the time of our begetting of the Holy Spirit, our bodies are tabernacles, temporary dwelling-places of God's Spirit, represented in us by the begetting influence which we receive as the start of our existence as New Creatures in Christ. That Holy illumination, spread abroad in us, fills us more and more with the light of the knowledge of God's glory. By and by the Lord's saintly ones will be changed from flesh to spirit and will be more perfectly represented by Solomon's Temple. Preparation of the Living Stones. A still more beautiful thought is brought to our attention by St. Peter. He tells us that the various members of the Church are living stones, in process of chiseling and polishing, preparatory to their uniting in one glori- ous Temple of God beyond the Vell. (I Peter 2:5.9.) The bringing together of these living stones will be by the Resurrection Power, beautifully illustrated in the delicacy of Solomon's Temple. We read that its stones were prepared at the quarry, and so perfectly shaped and ```markdown ``` marked for their places that they came together without sound of hammer. So the Church is God's workmanship (Eph. 2:10). His work will be so perfectly accomplished that there will be no need of alteration beyond the Vell. This viewpoint is especially interesting and profitable to the Lord's people. Such of them as can realize their High Calling to membership in the Temple can fully appreciate thereafter the necessity for trials and difficulties, which shape and fit them for Heavenly glory, honor, immortality. These are the "all things" working together for good to them that love God—preparing them for the services of the future. The thought of the Church as the Temple under construction suggests a future work. Why construct a Temple and not use it? Serious injury came to us through errors of the past. With the view that the Church alone is to be saved, and that at Christ's Second Coming the world will be burned up, the construction of the Church as the Temple would seem to be a waste, since there would be nobody to be blessed by it. However, as our eyes of understanding open more and more, we see that, instead of terminating at Christ's Second Coming, the Divine Plan will merely begin there, so far as the world is concerned. The Church will be the great Temple through which all mankind will return to harmony with God. Eventually this glorified Temple will be the House of Prayer for all people—through the glorified Church God's Presence will be manifested and His mercy available to all. When the Temple was ready for dedication, King Solomon presented it he was ready for plonom presented it to God with the prayer which constitutes the basis of today's Study—a prayer beautiful in its simplicity; and indicative of his perception of the great truth that God is a personal God, whose dwelling-place is not everywhere, but in Heaven. It shows that the Solomon's Sacrifice Accepted. Solomon's Sacrifice but in Heaven. It shows that the king fully understood that the presence of the Temple indicated that there were sinners who needed atonement, mercy and forgiveness; and that prayer would be appropriate. During the Millennium all mankind will have opportunity of approaching God through His Temple, of which Jesus is the Chief Corner-Stone and the Church the living stones. God will hear the prayers thus properly presented and will forgive the sins of the people. As a result Restitution will progress to completion. Solomon's great Antitype, the Lord Jesus Christ, will dedicate His Church, formally presenting to Jehovah the Temple which is His Body, reared up on the Third Thousand-Year Day from His death—the dawning of the Great Sabbath. Then Divine glory will fill the Temple. Possibly, as in the type, this may be while yet the construction work is not quite finished. JAMES H. WINSLOW UNDERTAKER AND EMBALMER Near Falls Church, Va.

This is the third largest contribution to the conscience fund; some are as low as a penny. The Liberty Bell's triumphant journey across the continent from Philadelphia to the Panama-Pacific Exposition, was welcomed by the salute of guns, noisy whistles, and the clanging of bells. It will remain at the Exposition until December. A monument has been unveiled to Harriett Lubman, the heroine of the "underground railroad" in Auburn, N. Y. She was born in Maryland in 1820.

Tindall from the secretaryship of the Board of Commissioners is one of the evidences that a democratic administration doesn't care for the length of service an efficient officer of the government makes, if he is a republican off goes his head. The removal of Dr. Tindall from the position that he so honorably held for over a quarter of a century was a surprise to the people and an evidence that merit doesn't count for anything under the administration of the local government. The action of the present Board of District Commissioners in the removal, demotions and transfers of republicans should be an object lesson to the next republican administration. The transfer and demotion of Dr. Tindall should convince colored officeholders that their time for decapitation cannot be very far off. If republican commissioners failed to do their duty toward worthy colored employees in the District Building, certainly nothing can be expected from the present democratic regime. There are a very few republicans holding positions under the District administration and before the end of the present regime, The Bee doesn't expect to see a republican left to say the Lord's prayer. Mr. Donovan, the successor of Dr. Tindall, is a fine gentleman. He is considerate, accommodating and reliable. He is honest and beyond all doubt will make an excellent official. The Bee hopes that he will recommend for promotion a few worthy and deserving colored employees. From present indications the Negro is barred from the police department. BISHOP TURNER MEMORIAL MEETING Exercises as a tribute to the memory of the late Bishop Henry McNeal Turner were held at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church Sunday at 3 o'clock P. M. Bishop Lee who was to have delivered the eulogy was kept away by the sickness of Mrs. Lee, but sent the manuscript of his remarks which was read by Rev. C. H. Stepteau, pastor of the church. Mr. Chas. R. Douglass who was to have spoken of Bishop Turner as a soldier was not present, and his absence was not explained to the audience. Former Governor P. B. S. Pinchback, who had been invited to speak five minutes, was present and spoke the allotted time. Rev. D. P. Seaton spoke of Bishop Turner as a churchman. Members of the G. A. R. were present, and Comrade Diggs, who was a soldier in the regiment of which Bishop Turner was chaplain, made a short extemporaneous talk, which, in the opinion of many, was the best feature of the exercises. Taken as a whole the exercises were not worthy of the memory of the late Bishop, in that the addresses were exceedingly perfunctory and common place, and did not improve the occasion to impress upon the listeners the salient facts in the bishop's life, and the lessons to be drawn therefrom. The committee of arrangements hardly measured up to the requirements of the interest committed to their hands. Another thing that tended to mar the exercises was that copies of the Christian Recorder were lauwked for sale within the sanctuary before, during and after the memorial exercises. Bishop Turner was an extraordinary man, and he touched the life of the race at many points. Up to his dying day he advocated the equal rights of his race with a courage and constancy that can be PAY FOR LABOR PERFORMED UNDER SYSTEM OF INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE IS A JUST CLAIM, AND, WILL TEST THE JUDICIARY OF THE COUNTRY. The claim made by the terms of the suit recently filed in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia by Hon. Cornelius J. Jones of Muskogee, Okla., wherein the court is asked to declare a lien against Sixty-eight Million dollars now lying in the federal treasury, which lien is asked to be declared in favor of laborers who produced the cotton in the years ranging from 1859 to 1868, wherein these laborers, it is alleged, did not receive any pay for labor performed in the production of that cotton from which cotton, it is alleged, the Government, through the secretary of the Treasury, illegally obtained money in the nature of a reputed revenue tax on raw cotton, is one of the gravest propositions affecting the mass of colored people of the country since the formation of the Government. When we consider, that every person who labored in the cotton fields of the south, or, the children or heirs of such persons so laboring, but who are now dead, all are to become participants in the distribution of this huge fund, it shows up for itself, that the suit is one of the gravest importance imaginable. It is one of the contests of the colored people, which is not based on race sentiment, but purely one based on business principles, wherein money is asked for honest toil, which, though rendered years ago, has not been paid for by the beneficiaries thereof. We have talked with Mr. Jones, chief counsel in the case, and he clearly eschews the connection of this suit, with any of the former movements affecting, or touching, the commonly called, "old slave pension" agitation. Mr. Jones says, that his purpose in this suit, is to address the facts supporting the contentions in the bill and proceed along orderly lines of procedure through the courts for a final decree in equity, steering clear of any sentimental paths whatever. The suit is, in legal procedure, nothing more than a claim for money due for past services; and a reason for not having asserted the claim more seasonably, and a reason why plaintiffs were not permitted to more seasonably put forth their claim; a request for appointment of necessary Masters in chancery to take proof of the claims asserted in the bill, and finally, a plea for an order crystallizing this claim into a judicial decree having the force of a judgment lien on the money in sight. Every colored person having any interest in this suit, must assert himself in alliance with Mr. Jones now, or he is precluded hereafter. The more persons making claim, makes the share smaller for the successful ones: the less the number claiming, the more to the share of those claiming and proving same. The Bee urges all persons to get into immediate touch with Mr. Jones, and let every person circulate the information as far as he can, in order that all persons may have ample opportunity of becoming enrolled in time to be examined by the master in the making of proof. This case will require, first, an enrollment of claimants, and next the setting of certain times and places for the examination of those enrolled as claimants, and this examination will be by the commission of the court; all in order that the matter shall be judiciously disposed of finally. For the present, Mr. Jones is stopping at 529 N. J. Ave. N. W., this city; but soon he will return south, and there establish headquarters is one of the principal cities of some of the cotton States. Mr. Jones will not return to his resident city, Muskogee, Oklahoma, while engaged in the work of this suit, but will be conducting operations from the headquarters of the claimants as stated, which most probably will be Memphis, Tennessee. So, any inquiry of him addressed to the given number for the next ten days, will be received in the city; after that time, he may be found at No. 406 Ashland street, Memphis, Tenn. The method of raising revenue to finance this suit is to be formulated within a very few days, and whatever method decided upon must be promptly met, for the time within which the case must be developed will be short under the rules of the court and the law governing disposition of such cases. The court cost in such a case will necessarily be many thousands of dollars, for it will include the expenses of the Masters in Chancery, stenographers, messengers, and fees for these officers; also messengers and attorney fees, stationery and office quarters, and incidentals generally. The amount sought by the claimants is well worth all the money raised for expenses and costs, and no doubt a vast number will take advantage of it; and remember, the fewer the number claiming, the more for those who claim; so in order to get in the proposition, one must make himself one of the early ones, for as the management of the case is in Mr. Jones' hands, he will be charged with responsibility of compiling the roll of claimants. The Bee gives this space to the subject for the purpose of giving the information, and sounding the warning to the interested parties to act, and act at once. Mr. Jones states that there is work for all the lawyers who may be inclined to share in the work to be set apart to them, and he invites their co-operation and association unreservedly. claimed for few men, and it is distinctly disappointing that in the capital of the nation his memory was not paid a tribute commensurate with its deserts. MARYLAND COLORED CITIZENS. The colored citizens of Maryland are fighters. They believe in equality of citizenship and at the same time they don't inpose upon those who are more fortunate than themselves. The Baltimore, Md., colored citizens will fight for every inch to obtain their citizenship rights. They don't ask for social equality and neither do they ask or demand to be admitted to places except they have a Constitutional right. The Editor of this paper has never met a more congenial set of court and school officials than can be found in Prince George's County, Maryland. Mr. Burroughs, the superintendent of schools, of that county, and the judge of the court at Marlboro, Maryland, are a set of high class and cultured men, who have manifested every desire to aid the Colored people morally and educationally. Prince George's County, or rather the Board of Education, will recommend, it is said, nine months school session and will quite likely raise the pay of the teachers. There are some very worthy teachers in Prince George's County. Md.. and are very faithful workers. The industrial department at Fairmount Heights, under the supervision of Miss Deville is equal to many of the departments in the public schools in this city. FAIR PLAY. When a benevolent organization has to be sued for a death claim benefit, it doesn't speak well for the organization and neither should the head of that organization appeal to the masses to aid in increasing its membership. There are some who are con- tracting for a page advertisement to the amount of $400.00 in a newspaper that doesn't benefit the organization. The Bee is published in the interest of the people and not in the interest of any clique. Before the colored people in this city spend all their money in supporting many of these out of town organizations, they should wisely consider what they are doing. This one man or one woman's power at some time generally work disastrous to the masses. Before any more new members connect themselves with these organizations ask by whose authority has $400.00 been contracted and has been willingly agreed to be paid and why it required a law suit to compel the head of this organization to pay a death benefit claim? To this kind of operation The Bee will devote its attention in in the interest of the people. THE EXCISE BOARD The court sustained the Excise Board in granting liquor license to the Metropolitan Club. The people have about come to the conclusion that the anti-saloon agitators have lost out and it would be a good idea if they would attend to their own business and allow those who wish to exercise their personal liberties do so. The court has said that the excise board acted within its jurisdiction and that the Metropolitan Club license could not be revoked after it had been granted by the board. EASY MARKS To a great extent this city is an asylum for outcasts. What The Bee means by outcasts is this: Men and women who have fallen below grace at their own home generally come to this city and their first effort is to put themselves at the head of some Sunday school or church lyceum and by deception place themselves in the limelight. If the moral people in this city would only take the pains to investigate one-half the shams that come to this city by false pretenses conditions would be better. The sharks and imposters in this city have almost bankrupted the people. If they get into the church it is not long before they want to insult every female member of the congregation. With but a few exceptions the people in this city are the easiest victims to be found anywhere in the country. This class of people have more to say against honest people than any other class of individuals. OUR REPUBLICAN CLUB The Capital City Republican Club which will be the strongest colored republican club in the United States, is preparing to have one of the largest demonstrations that has ever been held in this section of the United States. This club and its guests will be addressed by some of the most representative republicans in the United States. Watch The Bee for particulars. TAR HEEL TRAMP If you have never heard a dog bark and howl when he is stung by a bee, listen to the poor derepid thing at Richmond. Ask Editor Mitchell, he will tell you to whom The Bee refers.

Dr. Lewis is one of the most progressive young physicians in this section. The, Bee is for sale at Dr. Shipley's drug store. Dr. Holbrook is slowly regaining his health. Mrs. Cannon, of Goodhope, D. C., is one of the most progressive citizens in this section. She and her daughters entertained Attorney W. Calvin Chase and several of his friends last Sunday evening. Mrs. Cannon is one of the leading church workers in this section. MISS BURROUGHS. She Defended Herself Against Slurs. At a meeting held recently at Deanwood, D. C., a man of the press attempted indirectly to slur Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. She sat quietly until the gentleman of the press had finished and when she arose, the thrashing she gave the young man will be a lesson to him until eternity. Miss Burroughs is doing better and more work than any female in the United States. She is respected for her humanity and integrity. The people respect her and the hundreds of young girls that are being educated by her should be helped. The Bee applauds her noble work. HOFEMAN'S BAND. Hoffman Band day celebration recently held at Eureka Park was the biggest musical and financial success of the season. In baseball circles you have the Walter Johnson, Tyrus Cobb and Hans Wagner day; at the Frisco exposition, Theodore Roosevelt day; why not in musical circles, locally speaking, the Hoffman Band day celebration a yearly event. Like the German army, Hoffman's Band continues to steadily advance in the musical arena. Future bookings are as follows: August 24, at Alexandria, Va., reunion and parade G. U. O. of O.

Mrs. Helen H. Davis, one of her best female stump speakers in this county, has been made a member of the Capital City Republican Club. Mrs Davis is a forcible speaker and a good worker John T. Rhine has also been admitted to membership. DR. C. W. CHILDS The route was by way of Bladensburg, Relay to Baltimore. The party which consisted of Mrs. Childs and Creed, jr., then wended its way to Belair. The road from Baltimore to Belair was originally the worst stretch which motorists had to encounter but now it is as good as any to be found. From Belair the road led northwest and in to Wilmington, Delaware. From Wilmington the party pushed on to Newark, Delaware, and then on to Philadelphia, which was reached in the afternoon. In Philadelphia the party was entertained every minute of the stay. Mrs. Susie Williams gave a reception to the visitors which was a happy as well as a pretty affair. The "City of Brotherly Love" spreads its hospitality broadcast at all times and this time was no exception. Mrs. Chew and her charming daughters, who have the honor of graduating from the Philadelphia High School, also entertained the touring party in a welcome manner. The party left Philadelphia, and "struck" the White Horse Pike for Atlantic City arriving there amid the gayety and festivity of the city beside the sea. Dr. and Mrs. Childs were there the recipients of many hospitalities, and together with these and the meetings of the League which they attended, were kept "on the jump." The party returned by the same route. Creed, Jr., drove the en tire distance and, as usual, acquitted himself with great credit. The changing of gears on a long trip makes it no easy task for the man at the wheel but this proved no hold back for Creed. Dr. Childs intends to make another trip this time to Indianapolis to visit his daughter, Mrs. Rosa Childs-Baughman. While in Indianapolis he will "run" over to Chicago to attend the Medical Convention. Found on Slab Just Turned Over After Fifty Years. Columbia, Comm.—Needing a flat stone for repairs that he was making. Edward Phillips pried up one which for over fifty years had been used as a stepping stone near the farmhouse back door. To his surprise he saw on the reverse side, in fairly plain letters, the inscription: In memory of Emily, daughter of Mr Joseph and Mrs. Dunlce Smith, who died April 15, 1814, aged six months and fifteen days. Reet, thou, sweet slumberer, in the peaceful grave; Short was thy life; forgotten soon. shall be Except the few who, drowned in sorrow's wave. With painful pleasure still remember thee. Nobody knows where the stone had been used or where it came from. Mr Phillips' father bought the house over fifty years ago and the stone was at the back door then for a stepping stone. It is five feet long and nearly two feet wide. LAST SHOT OF CIVIL WAR. Woman Asked Police to See If Old Gun Was Loaded—it Was. New York. The "last shot of the civil war" was fired recently in a courtroom. It came from a gun which had been hanging for years on a wall in the home of the late Willard H. Hodgson. The musket had been carried in the war of the rebellion by Mr. Hodgson's father. Mr. Hodgson's sister was preparing to move to another house, but was afraid to take down the old musket. She called in Lieutenant Henry Brown of the Flatbush police station and turned the gun over to him. He took it around to the station house and showed it to Attendant Patrick O'Loughlin of the Flatbush court, which is in the same building. Standing in the corridor O'Loughlin pointed the gun at the door and pulled the trigger. The old war musket was heavily loaded, and there was a report which startled the police reserves and the people in the courtroom. WANTS A NATIONAL BANK IN CANAL ZONE Washington. — Representative Helm of Kentucky has a plan to establish a national bank at Ancon, in the Panama canal zone, with branches elsewhere in that country. He would call it the Pan-American bank and give it a capital stock of $25,000,000, divided into shares of par value of $100 each. Just before congress adjourned Mr. Helm introduced a bill to incorporate the Pan-American bank, and when the Sixty-fourth congress convenes he will press it for action. "The commercial tieup resulting from the European war has convinced my thinking man in this country that foreign trade is a vital element in our domestic prosperity and that the continents of North and South America have greater identity of interests than was ever realized before." said Mr. Helm. "There never was a time when opportunity was knocking so loud at our doors. The commerce and business of a continent are within our grasp. The manufacturing enterprises in Central and South America are very limited, and it is to this matter that I wish the attention of the country could be directed. The Week in Society Come for drugs.

One of the Most Brilliant Events in Social Circle—Marriage of Miss Alberta Butler and Dr. Julian F. Vaughan. A happy union took place on June 26, 1915, between one of Washington's most popular school teachers and one of Massachusetts' most successful doctors. The charming and amiable bride was Miss Alverta V. Butler of this city, and the groom was Dr. Julian F. Vaughan, formerly of Newark, N. J. Miss Butler is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John W. Butler of 2129 Pennsylvania Avenue, N. W. Mr. and Mrs. Butler have resided in Washington for over twenty-five years, being formerly of St. Mary's county, Md., during which time Mr. Butler has been employed in the Government service here. Their daughter, Miss Alverta Butler, was educated in the public schools of this city, and is a graduate of M Street High School and Normal School No. 2, both of Washington, D.C. She graduated from Normal School No. 2 with high honors, standing number five in her class, and after she started out in her life's work continued to keep up the excellent record which she had made while a student in school by doing first class work, which entitled her to be rated as an excellent teacher in our public school system. While in our school system Miss Butler made many friends for herself and was exceptionally liked by all who knew her, as was shown by the beautiful presents which her many friends gave her. Dr. Vaughan is a graduate of the Dental Department of the Howard University, Washington, D. C., and since his graduation has practiced in two states, New Jersey and Massachusetts. Regardless of the fact that Miss Butler issued no wedding invitations on account of recent illness in the family, but instead was quietly married, before leaving the city she was given three wedding showers, one by the teachers of Montgomery School where she was teaching when she resigned, one by her relatives, and one by her most intimate girl friends. At each shower gifts were presented by every one present. So well liked was Miss Butler that a handsome gift was also presented her by the teachers of Miner Normal School, where she had taught before going to Montgomery, greatly to her pleasant surprise. A miscellaneous shower was given her by her most intimate girl friends. Those participating in the surprise met at the house of Miss Ida Freeman, 1900 Thirteenth street N. W. Miss Hattie Gilman took the prospective bride for a walk, during which time the young people arrived at the house. When Miss Butler returned home at 9 o'clock the front of the house was all dark and still. A few minutes after entering the house as she went into the parlor to strike a match, Miss Butler was not only surprised but dreadfully frightened when Miss Ida Freeman grabbed her by the arm, and the party of young folks all ran to her and shouted "Surprise." Her fright soon turned to utter amazement and joy when her friends began to unfold the various gifts which they had brought to her. The evening was pleasantly passed in reading aesthetic poems and singing verses which were most encouraging and pleasing to a bride. Everyone wished the bride-to-be happiness and prosperity. After partaking of a delicious repast at about 11 o'clock, the jolly party was in turn given a surprise by the aunt of the bride, Mrs. Nellie Jarvis, who, when the party was departing found waiting them at the door three large touring cars which carried each of them to their various homes. The bride took a spin in one of the cars. Thus the merry party dispersed with everybody present having been given a surprise. Those present at the shower were: Misses Ida Freeman, Alice Freeman, Evelyn Lacey, Estelle Collier, Mary Cook, Hattie Edmonds, Florence Hunt, Ann Johnston, Fannie Butler, Enola McDaniels, Edna Murray, Lotte Penn, Norma Sewal, Orville Stevens, Lenorah West, Zulaka Wooding, and Mesdames Marcia Montgomery Cook, Jennie Richardson McGuire, Edith Wright Fancil, and Miss Al Verta W. Butler. The shower given Miss Butler by her relatives consisted of every cooking utensil necessary in a home, while at the surprise given her by the teachers of the schools, silver sterling spoons were given with her initials engraved on each one. The presents which Miss Butler received consisted of various kinds of china and glass ware, and silver ware consisting of knives, forks and spoons of all kinds, table linens and house linens consisting of dinner cloths, lunch cloths, table napkins, bed spreads blankets, comforts, sheets, pillow-cases, towels, bath rugs, tea towels, dust cloths, bungalow aprons, Dutch dust caps, every necessary cooking utensil, various kinds of wearing apparel consisting of dresses, waists, tea gowns, short and long kimonos, ornaments, statuary, a bride's perpetual clock, a kitchen cabinet, two corner chairs and a beautiful reed rocker and arm chair to match. The bride's trousseau consisted of the most exquisite and complete wardrobe ever witnessed on such an occasion. Dr. and Mrs. Julian F. Vaughan will make their home in Pittsfield, Mass., where Dr. Vaughan has built up a lucrative practice.* Dr. Vaughan has made exceedingly great headway for the short while he has been in Pittsfield, and he is the favorite dentist in the town. The citizens of Pittsfield have received Mrs. Vaughan with unusual cordiality and enthusiasm, and she has already become a member of one of the leading clubs in the town and has been seen at all of the popular social functions since her arrival there. Mrs. I. N. Ross knows the power of intelligent organization. She believes in touching elbows with the women of her race and in doing everything for ours that other races do for theirs and a little more. Women from every quarter where she has served with her excellent husband testified at the National Federation of Colored Women that Mrs. Ross was the cause of them being organized. So many so stated that a call was made for the ministers wives to assemble in the back of the auditorium and form the ministers wives association. Mrs. Ross was elected chairman as she should have been. The National Association of Ministers' Wives which was formed at Cincinnati this year elected Mrs. Ross honorary president and national organizer. At the quarterly meeting at Havre de Grace Mrs. Ross presented S. S. MRS. I. N. ROSS. A Great Christian Worker. the plan of how she organized the Mothers' Jewels in her church. She had the mothers to bring their children from two months up to 12 years and give them to the church. Her organization formed in the spring started with over sixty children. After they were taken in the church, Mr. Ross had the children and mothers photographed together. She and her daughter, Mamie, attended the convention of the Northeastern Federation of Colored Women at Philadelphia. Mrs. Ross took fraternal greetings from the Maryland Federation of Christian Women. Since our last letter the following guests have arrived at Mt. View House: Mr. W. H. Alken, office clerk Y. M. C.

View House, boasted of catching the largest bass of anybody at Hooper's Ferry. Mr. Keyes is some fisherman and did catch the largest gamester until the old Potomac war horse came, Dr. W. S. Montgomery, who landed a fourpounded last Friday. When it comes to fishing at Harpers Ferry you have got to take your hat off to Dr. W. S. Mr. Martin announces that he will give the guests and friends their annual picnic about August 7th. All indications point that this picnic will be a record breaker. Host Martin must work some to surpass the one given last year on Island Park. We have 80 guests now in the house. The young people are having a great time. Not only the young, but everybody is young up here. All cares have been thrown aside and happiness is paramount. Talking about cats. They cannot be surpassed. Last year cannot reach them. Everybody is increasing in weight. Host Martin is popular with his guests because he is doing everything in his power to please. Mr. Walter Aiken of the Washington Y. M. C. A., who is stopping in this house, is certainly some tenor singer. He often entertains the guests with his melodious voice. Mrs. D. O. W. Holmes of Baltimore, who is stopping here with Master Holmes for the season, brought with her 300 of the very latest records for her big Victrola and she gives us concerts almost every day. Mr. Lacy, of Bridgeport, Conn., the champion tennis player of all New England, who is here, takes real pleasure in teaching the guests what he knows about the racket. On the fine double court can be seen many players every morning by 4:30. Look for date of picnic in my next letter. A large crowd is expected this week. Madam E. Azalia Hackley, the leading colored female musician in the world, has done great work to awaken what was about to be a lost art among our people. Madam Hackley believes that as every race, except the Negro, has made some distinct contribution to civilization, the Negroes' contribution is going to be in music. She has gone east, west, north and south, giving her time, talent and money to keep alive this talent. In Texas recently she gave a Negro Folk Song Festival at Fair Park Coliseum, with a chorus of 250 voices. In Springfield, Ill., a chorus of 150 voices at the State Arsenal. In Georgia, Alabama and other southern states they have opened the best theaters to her and her people for demonstration. She is a seeress, and we wish for her long life, health and wisdom to do God's work.

SHARES PERILS OF TROOPS His Indifference to Danger Admiration of Men, but Source of Anxiety to Generalissimo—When In Midst of Troops, Shrapnel, Forerunner of Other Projectiles, Passes Over His Head. Paris.—The telegram saying that the king of Italy had been made a corporal in the Third zouaves of the French army made a great impression in Italy, the Rome correspondent of Le Temps writes; all the greater, as Victor Emmanuel III. is rapidly gaming on the field of battle the same popularity won by his grandfather, who was always proud of having been named "corporal" after the victory of Palestro. Although the Italian constitution gives the king the right of peace and war and the command in war of all land and sea forces, Victor Emmanuel has insisted on acting as a simple general, taking orders from the generalissimo. During his conversation recently with Peppino Garibaldi he spoke chiefly about Joffre and his generals. Later, while he walked for over an hour in the gardens of Villa Ada with Gabriel d'Annunzio, he asked him everything about the French army which the poet could tell him. However easily, therefore, he could have assumed the part of generalissimo, he has gone to the other extreme and never gives even an opinion unless he is pressed to do so by the generalissimo himself. The head of the army is General Cadora. I am only one of the officers 1 in the service of Italy," are not only the king's words, but they express an actual condition. The other day the soldiers fighting on the banks of the Isonzo were discussing a telegram which said that the king had shared a dangerous march with the Alpines and had decorated with his own hand a corporal and two privates who had accomplished feats in his presence. The men, believing the king still in the Trentino, were envying the Alpines their luck in having him with them, when a cry arose, "The king!" And cries of "Long live the king!" grew nearer as the monarch in gray green uniform, without any stripes, appeared on horseback. The enthusiasm was intense. Men crowded round the royal visitor so thickly that his horse could not move. "What do they want, these brave fellows?" said the king to his aid. "Do they expect me to cry 'Long live the king' as well? That would be too much." Then raising his cap in the air he shouted, "Long live the soldiers of Italy." This brought more cheering and more crowds to cheer, until the officers had to order every one to the ranks to give the king room to move. And off he went to another point of the battle. This royal indifference to danger is the admiration of the troops, but a source of anxiety to the generalissimo. 'The other day, for example, the king was in the midst of his troops when a shrapnel shell passed over his head, the forerunner of further projectiles of the same kind. According to the regulations, every man should throw himself flat to give the least possible mark for the bursting fragments. The king seemed to hesitate, but a private near him took him by the shoulder and made him bend down.' Just then the dust thrown up by the shell fell on the king and covered him. The king raised his head, took up a little of the earth that had fallen on him and said. "It is a good omen." General Cadorma, however, on this occasion was almost angry. He did not, as has been reported, put his king under arrest, but he begged him to remain for at least five days at a certain distance from the front. The king quietly reblied. "I obey." AVIATION CLASS FORMED. First Organization of Officers Will Go to Pensacola. Washington. Announcement was made at the navy department of the selection of nine officers to form the first organized class in aviation. The officers will be assigned at once to the aviation station at Pensacola for the study of the construction, assembly and repair of aeroplanes and later will learn to operate the machines. Practical shop work will be one of the chief features of the first period of instruction. Another class will be selected a few months later in line with the policy of the department, supported by appropriations by congress, to expedite the development of aviation in the United States navy. The officers composing the first class are Lieutenants E. F. Johnson, A. C. Reed, E. G. Hass, R. Paunack, W. W. Corry and Ingrams J. P. Murfleet and W. H. Schenold, all of the navy, and Lieutenants E. T. Evans and A. E. Cunningham of the marine corps. KANSAS GIRLS HAVE BEAUX. Wheat Crop Makes Wedding Bells Ring In Smith County. Smith Center, Kan.-The municipal marriage bureau, organized last spring, is to be abolished. What correspondence could not accomplish the maturing wheat crop has been able to do and do well. There has been an oversupply of women and girls in Smith county, but the coming of the harvest hands has changed all this. Bright young fellows from colleges and universities, east and west, have become interested in the western Kansas girls. Two weeks delay in harvest work has given the strangers ample opportunity to go courting, and there isn't a girl in Smith county now who hasn't at least one beau. Many of them have two or three applicants, and the marriage license clerk is anticipating a rushing business. NEW YORK BOASTS OF BEST ROGUES' GALLERY NEW YORK BOASTS OF BEST ROGUES' GALLERY Brooks to Number of 10,000 Carefully Indexed. New York.—This city now has the most complete rogues' gallery in the world. Such is the proud boast made at police headquarters. It took a year for Deputy Police Commissioner Frank A. Lord and Lieutenant John Allen to lift this town into the rogues' gallery leadership, but they have done it, both say. Crooks, confidence men, murderers, burglars, pickpockets, gangsters, gun men, to the number of 10,000, are now indexed and cross indexed in the modern gallery. Their photographs are on file, also their finger prints, their Bertillon measurements and a vast quantity of other information concerning them. There are now 150,000 finger prints on record in the gallery, all neatly classified. At a moment's notice any picture can be found. Suppose a second story suspect is brought in. The detectives turn to the section marked "Burglars," then to the subclassifications. They read "Burglars—A, loft; B, safe; C, plain; D, second story." The police then look under the proper subdivision where the pictures are kept for the photograph of the man under suspicion. There are 2,500 pictures in the gallery of "general thieves," men whose talents for gaining dollars dishonestly are too varied to be limited to one particular subdivision. Photographs of 1,500 pickpockets, of whom 300 are women, are on file. In the main the subclassifications and the cross indexing are innovations. Deputy Commissioner Lord said that he had been unable to recover all the photographs which were removed during the Waldo regime. Many of them he feels sure he has replaced. When the pictures were taken out the records went with them, and so it will never be known definitely to what extent the vast correspondence with penal institutions and other police departments has succeeded in repairing the losses. The police rogues' gallery was started here by Police Commissioner James G. Kelso in 1870. Joseph A. Faurot, the present head of the detective bureau, and Sergeant Crow are largely responsible for building up the present gallery. Faurot was sent to Paris twice, once to study the Bertillon system and then to study finger print methods. CAPTURE STOWAWAY. Japanese Lad Missing Four Years Is Found. Port Townsend.-Genjiro Suzuki, a Japanese stowaway, who arrived at Smith Cove on the Sado Maru four years ago and escaped from that vessel by jumping overboard and swimming ashore, was taken into custody a few days ago by United States Immigration Inspector H. A. Myers and will be deported. After escaping Suzuki worked in logging camps and shingle mills. Last August he signed as cook in the American barkentine Koko Head at Port Angeles. Upon the arrival of the Koko Head here and while checking the crew he was recognized by Inspector Myers. The National Religious Training School, Durham, N.C.

DIVINE LOVE FOR THE NEW CREATION God's Love For the Church Different From His Love For the World. Adam's Disobedience Alienated His Posterity From God—Jesus' Obedience Secured Opportunity of Return to Divine Favor—Justification and Sanctification—New Creation Tested as to Loyalty and Obedience—The Messiah of Many Members—Riches of Love Divine, All Love Excelling. Toronto, Ont., July 18. Pastor Russell spoke here today on the text. "The Father Himself loveth you" (John 16:27). Among other things he said: PASIOR RUSSELL PASTOR RUSSELL This is one of the most wonderful texts in the Bible. When we think how great God is and how little man is when we consider that sin has blotted out in very large measure whatever there was of God's image in humanity, we are constrained to wonder what this text can mean. We are not surprised that the Father loves the angels, who are perfect, without blenching in any sense of the word. But how could He love mankind? We read, "God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him might not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). This text tells of some kind of great love that God 'had for the whole world of mankind. God's Love For the World. God had a sympathetic love for humanity, not an affectionate love; for there was nothing in fallen man worthy of Divine love. He felt just as we would feel for some poor injured dog or cat—we would bind up its paw and give it something to eat. So God's sympathy for the world takes notice of the fact that mankind have gotten into a great deal of trouble through the curse which came upon Father Adam through disobedience to his Creator's command. Divine mercy and sympathy have gone out toward our race to such an extent that God has provided a great Plan of Salvation for mankind. He has provided the death of our Lord Jesus Christ to be our Redemption-prince—not to recover us from petalent torture, but from death. Unless we were rescued from that perishing condition of death, we would have no future life whatever. His first great step on behalf of mankind turned our dying condition into a sleeping condition. Instead of perishing as do the brute beasts, men merely fall asleep, to wait for the morning of the New Dispensation, when our Lord will call forth those sleepers from the tomb. (John 5:28, 29). They will be called forth to an opportunity for restitution to human perfection in a world-wide Paradise—a restitution for which God has made provision based upon the death of our Lord Jesus Christ—a restitution lifting mankind out of sin, misery, and death back to all that was lost in Eden. St. Peter tells us that this Restitution is mentioned by all the Holy Prophets. (Acts 3:19,23). In their writings are repeated references to the time when all the willing and obliterant shall be brought back into fellowship with God, and all the wicked shall be destroyed in the Second Death. God's Love For the Church. God's Love for the Church. Over and above Divine love for mankind in general comes the love mentioned in our text. God so loved the world that He provided for their redemption from sin and death. But to the Church our Lord Jesus says, "The Father Himself loveth you." No one beongs to this class except the saints—those in covenant relationship with Him through Christ. (Psalm 50.5). It does not include those who merely have turned from sin to say, "I will not lead a wiked life any longer." To these the Father is paying no attention. They are still of the world, still condemned, still children of wrath, even as others; for they have not taken the only step which will transfer them from being children of wrath to being children of God. We are not to think of the Heavenly Father as exercising no discretion in destowing His love. If He loves any one, He loves that person for some reason. So in the character of those to whom our Lord Jesus referred there must have been something which constituted them worthy of the Father's love. The commendable thing in their character was that they had given themselves to God to do His will. They had come back into God's family as sons—John 1:12, 13. Adam Forfeited God's Love. Adam had been a son of God; but he sinned and forfeited the Father's love. When he came under the sentence of death, "Dying, thou shalt die," he was cut off from fellowship with God. He and all his posterity became sinners under the death sentence, unworthy of Diyine notice or care. While God has permitted certain blessings to come to mankind—the sunshine, the rain and other material favors—yet He has kept Himself aloof from our race, and has treated mankind as allens and stran- tended when disocclusive came in. Since all mankind were born in that condition which would not be pleasing to God, and since the Church are still in very much the same condition, why does the Father love the man, who have given them sovereignty to Him in consolation? It is because from the table viewpoint of a great change took place when this came into the family of God. "There is only one way back into harmony, and fellowship with the Father. Jesus is the way; for, as the Bible points out, in harmony, with the Father's Plan, our Lord gave Himself sacrificially, with all the rights which He had as a man; and in due time the merit of His sacrifice is to be applicable to Adam and all his race. His death is the self-faith in grace for the sin of the whole world. And although it has not yet been appropriated for the whole world, God is inviting a certain class to come out of the world in advance of the remainder of our race. Of these our Lord said, "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world."—John 17:16. Justification the First Step. Those disciples whom Jesus was addressing had come out of the world. They had left everything that they might be His pupils and do just the right thing in the right way. Thus to be children of God was their chief aim and ambition. The first step in this direction is justification the being made right, just. Justification and righteousness mean the same things they are different ways of expressing the same thought. We must be made right with God before He will deal with us at all. bloodage of sin and death that is on the whole world. God's time for delivering mankind is the great Sabbath of the Lord our God, when Jesus and His Church will be associated in the blessing of all the families of the earth. During man's Work Week the race has had a severe lesson of what sin is and what it will do. As we look over into Europe, we see what evil passions can accomplish. Yet the savagery there is only beginning; it will be far worse. With all our preaching and teaching, with all our surgery and medicine, we have no, bettered our race very much. When we perceive that sin has accomplished this work, we dread sin; we realize that it is the most perilous thing that can befall any one. When the whole world come to realize the true situation, men will know that the entrance of sin is the worst thing that can happen. The Beginning of the New Creation.' According to the Divine Program for human salvation, the Lord Jesus Christ was to do a sacrificial work for the race; next the church was to be gathered out from amongst mankind, and then the Millennial Age was to begin. When our Lord Jesus gave His life freely and unreservedly to the Father in consecration at Jordan, God started a New Creation, by begetting the Son with the Holy Spirit to the Divine nature. As He was coming up out of the water, the Holy Spirit came upon Him, anointing Him to all the glorious work which He is to accomplish as the great King and the great Priest for the world of mankind. When the Father planned this New Creation in connection with human salvation, He arranged that, the New Creatures should be those who would give up all their own rights as men, laying everything at His feet, and desiring to know and to do the Divine will. As our Lord was the beginning of the creation of God (Revelation 3:11), the Father wished Him to have the highest place in this New Creation. The angels never had such a test of loyalty as came to Jesus; they never had down life, on one plane and passed to a lower plane, as He did. Although they have been loyal in everything which God has asked of them. He did not put this test upon them. When at the beginning of His ministry our Lord, then thirty years of age, gave Him unreservedly to the Father, saying, "Lo, I come in the volume of the Book it is written of Me), to do Thy will, O God," the Father manifested His special love for the Son by anointing Him with the Holy Spirit, making Him a member of the Divine family on the highest plane of being. Then for three and a half years the Father tested Him, proved Him and found Him worthy to receive the honor, the glory, the power, the might. (Revelation 5:12.) How we rejoice in our Savior's victory! How we love and admire Him, for the same reason that the Father does! There is something of character there. The Body of the Anointed. The Apostle tells us that there was one feature of God's Plan for human salvation which was not made known in the past; that is, the fact that there was to be a Body of Christ—not merely one individual, but a company. This figure of speech we use when we speak of the body of Congress, of which the chairman is the head. So we speak of the Body of Christ, of which Christ Jesus is the Head. God gave Him to be Head over the Church, which is His Body. (Ephesians 1:19-25) Nobody knew beforehand that The Messiah is to be composed of many members, and that the members were to be selected from amongst mankind. The Jews simply expected Messiah to come. They read of the glory, and thought only of the glory and of one person, not realizing that they themselves would have an opportunity to be of this Messiah class—just what the Jews are still expecting. Through St. Paul the Lord tells us that in this Body of Christ there would be both Jews and Gentiles; and that the twain were to become one New Man, one complete Christ—Jesus the Head, and the Church the Body, Ephesians 2:11-16; 1:11-16). The first members of this Body came from the Jews, to whom the call was first to be made, because they were the natural seed of Abraham. God had told Abraham that He would give the first chance to the Jews. It is wonderful to contemplate how many were ready for this call. Probably twenty-five thousand Jews responded quickly to the Gospel Message, thus showing a wonderful condition of concession to God and His ways. Then the door was thrown open to the Gentiles. There were not many of these ready for the call; and so it has taken eighteen hundred years to gather from amongst the Gentiles enough to complete the exact predestined number. If the Gentiles had been as thoroughly consecrated as were the Jews, the required number might have been found during the first century. But the Gentiles had not had the previous instructions of the Law to assist them, and therefore it has taken a much longer time to take out the proportionate number. Thus we were called out of the world to be followers of Jesus—invited to make the same kind of consolation to God which He made, and to receive and to manifest the same Holy Spirit the Spirit of anointing. Merit Incurred to the Church. During the Gospel Age the Father is calling only those who have the spirit of His Son, whose disposition was one of faith and obedience. These cannot have the same degree of obedience because their dish is imperfect; but they can have the same degree as far as the mind, the will is concerned. We can will to be whatever we like; and God is looking at the will. He knows far better than we do that we cannot do the things that we would. The Apostle said, "Yeah, I judge not mine own self." * * * He that judge me is the Lord." (1 Corinthians 4.3, L) St. Paul did not know how much allowance to make for even himself; and we do not know how much allowance to make for ourselves, our neighbors, our friends, our brothers. Therefore the Lord instructs us not to judge one another; for whatever kind of judgment we mete to others will be the standard of our own judgment. The ability to criticize others manifests knowledge of just what constitutes the wrong act or word, and renders the one aspiring to be judge the more responsible. We are to render all the help we can to others, and leave the matter of disciplining to the Lord. He alone knows what experiences His people should have. Therefore His people should avoid all judging, condemning and fault-finding. Let God do the judging and any punishing which He may see necessary. In the Millemial Age mankind will simply put away shi and try to live as nearly right as possible. Then God will bring them up to perfection. But now it is difficult. To, those who come trusting that Jesus has made satisfaction for their sins, a certain measure of His merit is imputed as soon as their consecration has been accepted by the Lord. To illustrate, Suppose the one who offers himself to God in full consecration represents twenty per cent, of a perfect human being. Since he is willing to give his little all to God, our Lord Jesus imputes to him eighty per cent. Thus the person has the one hundred per cent, representing the perfection of human nature—"complete in Him." Then our Lord, the great High Priest, takes His own eighty per cent, and the person's twenty per cent, and presents it all to the Father. Just when we take the same step that Jesus took, then the Father begins to love us with a special love. "Keep Yourselves In the Love of God." The Father's love, which begin when He hegat us with His Holy Spirit, continues with us as long as we are loyal to Him and in proportion to the degree of our loyalty. Should we at any time prove disloyal, like Judas Iscariot, the Holy Spirit would be taken from us. There is forgiveness for errors made through weakness of the flesh; but disloyalty to the Lord will not be forgiven. A sin against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness. We should all be very careful not to have the Judas spirit—not to barter off the Lord or the Truth or the brethren for thirty pieces of silver of any kind. Some betray the Lord by saying, "For business reasons I must do thus and so." Others betray the Lord by declaring, "I know that I am not preaching Just as I should—that I am slandering God's character and His Word, as well as misrepresenting myself; but I must make a living." Why should such persons be acknowledged before the Father and the holy angels? But only the Lord could determine whether such were worthy of the Second Death. They could not be of the Body of Christ, however. What a wonderful honor is this to which God has called us! Those who have been begotten again by His Holy Spirit have been anointed from the day of their begetting to be kings and priests unto God and to reign with Christ a thousand years. There are tribulations identified with all their experiences; nevertheless, while they have tribulations, they also have the peace of God, which passes human understanding. As the Bible declares, all things are theirs; for they are Christ's, and Christ is God's. He has promised grace sufficient for every trial; and even the adversities of life shall work together for good to them, because they love God and are the called according to His purpose. "Love Divine, all Love excelling, Joy of Heaven to Earth come down." MAIL BY AUTOMOBILE Proposed That Minimum Length of Runs Will Be Fifty Miles. Washington. — "Rural mail service by automobile will begin on a large scale Aug. 2." says a statement by the post-office department. "Thereafter, under orders thus far signed by Postmaster General Burleson, 105 machines carrying mail will traverse more than 5,500 miles of rural post roads daily except Sunday. "The first dispatch of rural mails by auto was made July 1. Two pioneer routes radiating from Quarryville, Pa., the one 55.1 and the other 56.8 miles long, went into operation on that date. Additional orders are pending providing for numerous other motor routes, and it is probable that many more will be approved in time to become effective in August. "Preparatory to the introduction of this service wherever it will be advantageous to the rural public, surveys of special needs and conditions in every state are being made. Rapid increase of automobile mileage in the R. F. D. is certain during the coming fiscal year. Prospects are that the rural mail auto will soon be as familiar in the great farming sections of the country as the present box-like rural carrier's wagon. Where roads are good the automobile promises to effect a huge economy of time and labor and vastly to enlarge the postal facilities of the districts served. "The routes now about to be operated by machine are from fifty to sixty miles long. Time schedules vary from six to eight hours. In some cases the new auto routes represent the extension of present wagon routes, but for the most part they are combinations of two or more routes now served by separate carriers, each with a horse drawn vehicle. In the same or less time than is required to do a twenty-five mile route by wagon the auto will serve a fifty or sixty mile route. The machine will have from four to five times the carrying capacity of the wagon." Berlin. -The war has developed what might be termed an "artillery ear," especially among the soldiers in this branch of the service, which enables them to judge accurately what kind of shell is being fired at them and whether or not it is aimed at their battery or at some other spot. Many lives have been saved by this gradually developed oral alertness. The artillerist, explains an officer who has been in the field for months, is able almost instinctively to tell whether a shell is headed for his battery or not. The men have learned to pay not the slightest attention to a shot that gives off the peculiar sound indicating that it is aimed at some other battery or position. Because of the confusing noise of the artillerist's own battery the squall tending it usually is divided into two groups, one of which listens for the shells of the opponents and gives the warning to dive for the shelter back of the guns. The men learn to talk with pauses between each word, listening meantime for the telltale whistle of the dangerous shell. Only in the case of the small field cannon, fired at a range of, say, 2,000 yards, is it impossible to hear the shell in time to dive into the security of the sheltering "understand." Those shells have reached their mark about as soon as the sound of their discharge. The twelve centimeter, flat trajectory guns, on the other hand, give just enough warning so that the men can make one dive. There isn't one fraction of a second to be wasted, but by quick action the artillerist can save himself. The big howitzers, however, give nearly half a minute's warning. As the officer puts it, one can hear the shells from these guns and still cut off a slice of wurt and take a swallow from one's field bottle before seeking shelter. The shelter in this case must be a genuine shelter, consisting of about three layers of heavy wood and two yards of earth and stone, else the shelter and artillerists are gone. SUNDAY'S A "DAY OFF." For Prisoners In Kansas City Jail Colony. Kansas City, Mo.—Prisoners who have families and who are confined at the municipal farm at Leeds are to be allowed to go home to spend Sundays with their families, provided they can be trusted. The Sunday paroles will be granted by J. O. Stutsman, superintendent at the farm. The men who will be paroled will go home after finishing their work on Saturday and will return in time to begin on Monday morning. The paroles will depend entirely on a merit system. If the plan works successfully it may be extended to trustworthy men who are not married. Carp Comes When Called. Carp Comes When Called. Sandusky, O.-Theodore Sharp, a fisherman, claims to be the owner of the only educated carp in existence. Sharp says the carp, which weighs nearly forty pounds and when out of the water resembles to a marked degree a fat hog, will come to him when he whistles, that it will eat out of his hand and that when he is out in a boat will follow him around, swimming close astern near the surface.
