II the evening Rev. DR.. K. S.
Stoc5s delivered an eloquent SER
MOD in Centre church., before 3
vert large audience. The discourse
beiS Sg chiefly in reply to the latest posi-
tiods taken by the Scientists, especially
Ty4dall, it was mastery and most
cof3Dfehensive review Of
lhe Existence sfa Personal God,
theIIey note being that science in search
ing gf6f God uses the wrong instrument.
When scientific man reaches his ut
most height by the aid Of physical an
al3s, and by metaphysical speculation
which reaches out still further he can
never know how for or how near Gcd is,
or what he is unless he look. through
lcns'of love and his own higher, morsl
nature. To those who are pure in heart
he is revealed now and will be hereafter.
He closed with an impassioned appeal

what Professor Price Thinks Of the
Currency.
New YORK, September 30-The IT.
b,n.c publishes tomorrow long inter-
view with Bouamy Price, Professor Of
Political Economy at Oxford University,
who is 70 address the Chamber of Com
merce tomorrow. The Professor thinks
the American currency shockingly bad.
and SAYS there is only one step to be
taken. viz: The extinction Of incontro-
vcrtiblc paper. Anything short of the
extinction Of the currency is so radically
and fundamentally bad that ! have no
interest in comparing the rel
alive goodness or badness of any
expcdicnts. Secretary McCulloch's pol
icv was right, and his example should b.
followed. The only object Of currency
is for exchanging goods. If a currency
is thoroughly convertible, l don't think
it is Of great importance that there should
be large stock Of gold, provided the
currency is issued by an issuer who IS
perfectly safe aud thoroughly responsible
for the debt The public wont ask gold
in exchange for the notes
Questicn-Why should not the Gov
ernmcnt he the issuer Of controvertable
notes, and derive profit from them.
Answer-You cannot get the President
nf the United States into the bankrup;
court. You can put the directors Of the
Bank Of England into il. You csnn"t rely
upon convertibility with party Of poll
