SWEETSEh.
Rev. Mr. Sweetscr, of tho Third Universalist
Church, in Blocker street, preached last evening on
anai repentance selecting for his text Isaiah, vi
2o"To tho law and the testimony; II they speak
according to their word Is because there light
In them" This sermon a continuation OF that
preached by the same clergyman last Sunday
night or at least, supplementary to it. His exordIum
last evening referred briefly to the position assumed
by him week ago-that there will be finally no inn
penitcnt people, but that, sooner or later, In this
or the other world, all men will repent and
DO recovered through Christ TO Coo. The preacher
said In yesterday evenings discourse that the
world or those who take with his statement may
Justly demand his for saying that II man re-
pent the present hto he surely will in that TO
come Before answering this question Mr. Sweetser
reviewed theories OF those VINO had changed their
base or rotreatcd from the position they assumed
iormery-that man by birth was deserving OF endless
punlshneut-to that OF the capitalization or total
hardening OF the sinners heart, so that repentance
will Ue Impossible Tor him WHO dies lifelong sinner.
''The law ana testimony support the Universaist
doctrine said Or. Sweetser 'lhe law " whicn we
are referred by those who teach that Is endless Is
the law when exists In the nature of things Aud II
Is tho nature OF things, they say, that man who has
rejected the Gospel In his lite should do so in the
future II lie siDncd here he Will sin there" DIR.
sweetser won't on to discuss the nature OF man and
10 Jounroys theory that the destiny Of any
beng Is determined by It's nature. God had mado
man upright according 10 solomon He and
his came from Tue manu- OF MS
Maker aud both wore maniicstly de-
signed Tor an ultimate state OF noblcness.
Sin is a ersion OF nature The simple TACT that
men have copsciences shows that they were meant
do right "lnasmuch therefore," said DR.. Sweetser,
there IN every soul an everlasting tendency to do
right, viii II not prevaiif IL tho soul be immortal
the conscience ~ immortal for the latter Is as
necessary TO the former as the vital prIncple: Is
TO tue body. II conscience then be immortal It
Will prevail" Another argument used IN support
of his position by tho preacher was that SIN
produced misery to him who committed anu
made him iec that righteousness alone wrought
happiness. In this way the sinner was mado 10 tcel
repeutapt and anxious for his own reformation
Alter referring to the sad consequences oil his guilt
10 tho sinner, the preacher I'll July believe that
men who die la their si1s will be besicgcd ~ the
other world by the spirits Of their Christian fronds,

GEN. SCOTS DAUGHTER.

THE STORY OF HER LOVE AND HER ENTER
ING CONVENT.
In the gossip which followed the annonce-
ment that Gen. Sherman's son had left for
Europe to become Catholic priest, story
was told OF the romantic circumstances at
tendeng the career OF one Of Gen. Winfield
SCOTS daughters, who died in the Convent
Of the Visitation at Georgetown. This
story was to the effect that Miss
scott cell in love with an at
tache Of n foreign legation; who loved sim
cerely in return. The match was opposed
by Gen. Scott, and through his instrument
tality broken of. She went hcart.brOken
to convent, and he prepared himself and
was admitted to the priesthood. In course
Of time he was ordered to Georgerown col
lcge, and portion of his duties consisted
in hearing the confessions OF thenuns at the
college. On one Of these occasions Miss
Scott knclt in the confessional to her former
lover Each recognized the other. She
tainted, wentinto u rapid decline and soon
died. He left the country.
The true story of the affair, as related by
friend Of the family of Gen Scott, is much
less romantic than the tale Of the gossips.
Nearly forty years ago Mrs. Gen. Scott was
living in Paris with her family, the younger
daughters being pupils in the Convent OF
the Sacred Heart. She moved in the high
est circles OF Partisan society, and her cid
est daughter was known, because of her
exceeding beauty and culture, as la Belle
| AmcriCainc,' \ Frcnchman Of excellent
/ family and considerable wealth fell IN love
with Miss Scott. His affection was re-
| ciprocatcd and with the consent of Mrs.
Scott, an engagement Of marriage
was made, In visiting the Con
vent Of the Sacred Heart. where her
younger sisters were ut school, Miss Scott
became deeply impressed with the holy life
Of the Sisters, In II comparatively short time
she was converted and determined to devote
her life to the church. She sought and
obtained II release from her engagement.
What became of her lover is not known, be-
you'd the fact that he never left Europe He
was reported to have joined religious or
der in Rome. Miss Scott returned to the
United States with her mother shortly
afterwards, and was admitted to the Con-
vent Of the Visitation at Georgetown. She
was in delicate health when ON the 2nd of
| October, 1914 she received the habit of the
novice, and on the Goth of August, 1915,
