house with well defined symptoms of smallpox,
but yesterday no new cases We're reported John

was likewise removed. The symptoms in his
case are not as yet decided. Yesterday DR.. Ell

TIE AMUSEMENT REVIEW.
Mile. Rhea, and The Silver King, the I'M
pOrtant Attractions This Week.

Mile. Rhea, the distinguished French actress,
will open a brief engagement at English's to-
night, appearing in "Frou-F rou, = which will be
followed by 'Adrienne Lacouvreur' tomorrow
night, school for Scandal Wednesday matinee,
and Much Ado about Nothing Wednesday
night. She is supported by William Harris, and
a strong company. Mile. Rhea is regarded by
eminent critics as one of the most distinguished
actresses of the age. Her success in this country
has been as marked as it was in the old world,
and this is saying much. Last spring she was
the only foreign artistic invited to participate in
the dramatic festival at Cincinnati, and her
Beatrice was more favorably commented upon
than any other individual performance given
there. There is a good advance sale for her en-
gagement here.
THE Silver King which is to be the attrac-
most remarkable of modern dramatic successes,
having had a continuous run of two years at the
Princess Theater, London. 1t is an English
melodrama, free from ltra-sensationa features.
with fine charactelizations. effective situations,
and good dialogue. In fact, it is one of the most
thoroughly interesting plays ever presented. 1t
will be given here by an excellent company,
headed by Walter Bentley, and with the original
New York scenery and effects. The advance
sale is very large. and the engagement promises
to be a remunerative one.
Manchester a. Jennings's combination. which
includes a number of the best-known speciality
people in the profession, will be at the Park all
this week.

grown religion, is about as fallacious as it would
be for agreat overgrown boy to say in the de
Tense of his freedom that he is too big for the
school; that he has physically outgrown the
school.
"A mans great learning and scholastic training
can no more be a substitute for religion, aud
soul life and culture, than can a great stalwart
body be a substitute for education. And so
these popular fallacies concerning a broad and
liberal Christianity have insinuated themselves
into the Christian church, and we are beginning
to feel their contracting and enfeebling effects.
In obedience to this demand, we build elegant
and costly church edifces, imposing great imam
cal burdens upon our people, and we must fill
these magnificent structures with culture and
T1chly-dreSSed audiences to the exclusion of the
poor, and the ignorant. We must pay a premium
tor culture and Oratory i'll the pulpit; we must
hlre a quartet choir to make an exhibition of
their vocal powers while a worshiping cOngrega-
ton keep silent, The Holy Gnost must be
quenched, responses hushed, amens choked, in
order that the church may gain and sustain the
reputation of being broad and liberal. On a
lower plane this fallacy for broadness comes up
from the demand of the Sabbath breaker the
saloon-keeper, and the criminal class at large for
less restraint and greater freedom.
Nothing is as broad as God; nothing so free as
the law of life in Christ Jesus; nothing so iber-
al, expanding, and e~levating as Christianity.
Let us find the old paths" where we may have
the scope of divinity and the sweep Of eternity
In the evening the discourse followed a sim
liar line of thought, based upon the text, The
truth shall make you free"

The Soldiers Monument.

The Soldiers Monumental Association Resolved
on Saturday to turn over the $1,000 in its hands
to such legal association as the State encamp-
ment of the Grand Army of the Republic may
form when it assemblies here next month, with
the request that the work of building a suitable
memorial be prosecuted at once. The members
present were General Coburn, Judge Julian,
Colonel Ray, Colonel Erdlemyer, and G. j.
L.angsdale. This association was organized in
1879, but owing to subsequent financial depres-
sion and the desire of the members not to do
anything which would in the slightest degree
interfere with the work of building a monument
to Governor Morton, nothing has been done be.

Died in the Ditch.

On Saturday morning the frozen body Of
Martin l.. Williams, IA farmer, living twelve
miles east of the city, was found in Pogues rnn,
near the Female ~Reformatory, with a wagon
bed overturned on it, and two horses, half frozen,
standing knee deep in the water, where they
had been all night. A bottle of whisky in the
mans pocket easily accounted for the accident
which caused his death, He had come to the
city with a load of barley ON Friday. got drunk,
and in going home after dark had driven over
the e~mbankment into the run. G. W. Ramsay,
for whom the man worked, says he is forty-three
years old and has IA wife and child.

Rev. DR.. Marine on Popular Fallacies Con-
corning Broad Christianity.

Rev. DIR. Marine on Popular Fallacies Con-
corning Broad Christianity.
The morning discourse of Rev. DR.. Marine, at
Central-avenue Church, yesterday, was from the
text, SIN Him we live, move, and have our be-
ing and it was directed to an investigation of
the fallacies of those who claim, under the cry
for a ''broad Christianity" that Christianity
shall be practically displaced by culture and de-
velopment. These are well enough in their
place; but orthodox Christianity claims to be a
divine essence and life, an importation of the
Holy Spirit, entirely different from any mental
OF moral excellence-a thing of itself, a life of
its own. The concluding portion of the Doctors
sermon was as follows:
II am informed that a great American FREE
thinker has displaced the Bible from his hone
and family with the writings of Shakespeare, and,
while he pronounces the Bible a worn-out book,
unworthy the consideration of a philosoplc
mind and a place in q scientific age, he points
with pride to the great English poet as the source
of his inspiration. At the same time he vaults
his freedom, and contrasts his own broadmss
with the narrowness of the Christian. Now |
have a great admiration for Shakespeare mys,lf,
and | am persuaded that any Christian may con-
sistently and with much degree of profit, study
his works. but to substitute this great autho' in
the place of God. and his tragedies and com4dies
in the place of the Bible, is about as consistent
as it would be for some sentimental lover # ma
ture to put out the sun in his broad and LIBERAL
devotion to the moon.
But herein is tbs fallacy: that an intaligent
being should hedge himself about with tie limi-
tations of human genius and wisdom, and then
boast that he is a broader man than the one
''who lives and moves and has his beinein God. "
Some time since L unintentionally offended a
very intelligent, broad and liberal Christian
lady by incidentally remarking in a semon that
Ralph Waldo Emerson was great, but that
the Lord Jesus Christ was greater" low, this
lady is a representative of a popular fallacy-
that human genius and culture is 90 take the
place of spiritual religion, ia obediene to the
demand for a broader and more Ideal Chris
tianity. The minister who says but title in his
pulpit ministrations about Christ ano the Holy
Ghost, and draws extensively on the scientists
and poets and nature, is broad an6 liberal
nothing narrow or ~fanatical abut him.
There is no greater fallacy to-day inthe public
mind than that education or cultures in any
sense a substitute for godliness and loly Ghost
religion.

Chinese New Year.

Yesterday was the Chinese New Year, and the
celebration thereof by our local laundrymen of
the Flowery Kingdom, begun yesterday, will
continue to-day. 1t is called the festival of Nun
Sin, and the festivities consequent upon the
event, which in China lasta month or more, will
here be abbreviated to two days. The rejoicings
will, however, have additional spirit attending
them from the fact that it is the tenth year of
the reign of the Emperor. On Saturday the Ce.
l~estials, of whom there are twenty-five in this
city, were busy settling up the business of the
old year that they might start the new with a
clean score. To-day will be devoted to keeping
~Open-house, and to the giving and receiving of
visits and presents by the yellow toilers. AT
each of the wash-houses to-day a table will be
spread and the visits will be accompanied by
refreshments, with no liquid stronger than tea.
Several of the laundrymen sometime ago joined
together and sent to China for various kinds of
Chinese fruits, and these will form a part of the
feast. The Chinese here are all from Canton.
