In the evening, at the stated church service,
Rev. Mr.. Worden delivered an address on the
Gospel of Mark--from which the Sunday
School lessons Of the present year are taken
and he incidentally referred to the advantage
of having the four gospels, each written for a
specific purpose. Mathew he declared, was
the gospel for tho jew Mark, the gospel for
the Roman Luke, the gospel for the Greek,
and John, the gospel for the Christian. The
internal evidence for these claims was shown,
and also the fact that the early fathers of the
church sanndsrstood them. The entire sermon
was able and instructive as were also the
previous addresses of the day. "a.
Next Sunday, the annual election for Of
ficers of the Sunday School will take place.

The Draft Towards PrOhl-
bitiOn.

Few people realize the progress
that is being made in this country in
the Temperance cause. DR.. Daniel
Dorchester shows by facts in the
Christian Adv0cdie how strong is the
drift towards Prohibition. He cites,
first, the long record for Prohibition
of Maine, New Hamshire, Vermont,
the shorter record Of Kansas, and the
recent Prohibition victory In Iowa.
Probably not less than ten other
States, he adds, are moving for a
constitutional Amendment similar
to that lately adopted by Iowa. Un-
der " local option" Prohibition OBJ
tains in quite number of towns and
cities in New Jersey; in Logan coun-
ty, Media, and other places in Penn
sylvania, in nearly all the rural dis
tricts of South Carolina; fourtv-two
counties, besides church and school
neighborhoods in Georgia, equal in
all to one-half the State; in ten or
fifteen counties and numerous dis
tricts in Alabama; in large districts
in Mississippi; in many parishes in
Louisiana; in about one-half the
State under the "Four Mile Law"
in Tennessee, in large sections in
Arkansas; and in several counties in
Texas, The votes given in various
State Legislatures in 1881, cited by
DIR. Dorchester also is significant.
In Wisconsin the vote in the House
stood 81 yeas to 30 nays. In that
State in 1878, $4,000 people petition
ed for Prohibition. in 1879, 10000;
in 1880, 100000; and a still larger
number in 1881. In Pennsylvania
the vote in the House was 100 to 80,
the measure failing in the Senate.
In Michigan the House voted 63 to
33, the Senate u to l0-the neces-
sary two thirds being wanting by
only one vote in the House and by
three in the Senate. In Nebraska
the record was 40 to 2S; in Ohio, in
the House - to Is, in the Senate 20
to IL (lost by four yotes), in illinois,
