addressed the association occupying over two and
the churches represented there in matters OF faith

He said that he could not Afford especially. to put
the association In such position that they were
obliged to defend him. Mr.. Beecher explained

Beecher held this view OF Gods character to stand
over against the representation of God as made by
the Lord Jesus Christ as frightful gorgon stood
over against the head Of an Apollo in the heather
mythology. He rejected the doctrine OF mans
God also the representations OF future punish
ment which were gross and physical and made
from the sensuous Roman school. Suffering, he
held, would not be bodily, but mental, according
to the laws OF moral sensiblity and all the afrec
tons; not machine OF sulphur and fire. a deluge
OF devils and all manner OF annoyance. He re-
garded also the whole doctrine of original sin as
had In the fall of Adam, as barbaric, that is as
the conception OF men as yet tgnorant-unedu-
Gated on this subject. He accepted without an
alysis the Trinity. He believed in a Providence
who overrules human life by thorough natural
laws Christ was infinite with infinite limits and
In taking his place as man he became subject to

believed fully, enthusiastically without break or

District Government Affairs.
THE COMMISSIONERS sURpRIsRp

The District Commissioners were surprised this
morning to learn of the decision of Judge Smell Of
the Police Court, in the case Of w. H. Hoover,
charged before that court with doing business as
produce dealer without license. The facts as deve-
oped were that Mr.. Hoover, a butcher bought beef
in quantities already dressed and retaied it to his
customers. Under the a21 clause of the license reg
ulat1ons, such dealers heretofore have been rated
as produce dealers, and have paid annual license
as such, $25 being the annual tax. This is the
third largest source Of revenue from the license
laws. This mornings ruling compels the officers
in charge Of collections Of licenses to prove that
the meat so sold in violation of the law was the
Identical meat purchased, as set forth in the war
rant. In other words, the officer is required to
trace the meat from one buyer to another, and
be able to swear positively that 1T is the same
meat as set forth in the information.
The effect of this decision will be to upset all
produce licenses, and will lessen the revenues OF
the District to the extent of $4,000 annually.
Another point OF the decision is that three sepa-
rate sales have to be proven to establish CASE
The 22i clause OF the license regulations reads as
follows:-" Produce dealers shall pay annually
$25. Every person whose business 1t Is to buy and
sell produce, fish, meats or fruits from wagons or
carts. stalls or stands shall be regarded pro.
duCe dealer"
