St. PauI's Church.

Rev. MT. Lines Sermon on Christ .
 Witness Bearer of the Truth.
 At St. Paurs church yesterday morning Rev. Mir. Lines preached forcible sermon, taking his text from St. Johns gospel, eighteenth chapter and thirty-seventh verse;
 ''To this end was born, and for this cause came into the world, that I should bear witne ss unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.' The preacher said that Christ's mission was pre- eminently to bear witness to the truth. He was the truth. We are limited and ham, pered in our vision so that it is difficult for us to comprehend him as the truth. We have, however, respect for the truth. We know for what Christ came into the world and for what we came into the world. The preacher described the scene in Pilots judg- ment hall when Christ uttered the words of the text. Two kingdoms were there repre-
 sented; one of the earth, the other not of the earth. Human judgments were reversed by the scenes in that trial and the great truth which has endured since and always will en- dure established. Christ accepted the title of king which was thrust upon him, but not in Pilots sense of the word, and in that connection he told what he came into the world for. His lifework was nearly finished
 He then proclaimed the end and purpose
 of his life "That I should bear witness to the
 truth" That was the fundamental idea of
 Christ's work. He was authority for the truth. His claims a witness came from the truth. He came out of an unseen and spiritual world for one great end. He was the author, the revealer and the maintaiper of truth. By truth we understand the char acter of Gods eternal principles. Christ's | revelation of the truth lightens our way from birth to death and makes the future bright 1 to all who walk in it. We should get from
 the text something practical and definite | rather than an abstraction. Christ's realm | is true and real. It embraces and touches | all human lives.
 l Those who heard Christ's voice were few 1 and at the time of our text the brief record | is that all forsook him and fled. 'FEvery one | that is of the truth heareth my voice." This expression ''of the truth" or s'of God" is a characteristic expression of St. Johns. It 1 means those vhe are truth loving. One must | be teachable and spiritually ready to hear the | truth. Nearness to truth measures nearness
 to Christ. Those that hear not Christ's voice l are not of the truth. The law of mercy will
 save those who have not heard the truth and l those to whom it was scarcely recog- | nizable. We have no ignorance 'to plead. We have heard Christs voice, and
 heart and conscience respond to that voice. l We have no excuse to plead. Our Lord in
 bearing witness to the truth provided for bearing witness to the truth and uttering the ] voice of truth to the end of time. He sent bis Holy Spirit to guide men into the truth. | It is duty and highest privilege to be l witness bearers to the truth.

Discourse by Rev. MT. NVilliamS-The
 Lesson of the Sermon.
 Rev. 0. H. Williams conducted the services at the North church yesterday. The story of Naaman's cure of leprosy by washing seven times in the river Jordan by the in- spired direction of Elisha, the prophet of Israel, was the subject of the sermon, II. Kings, vi, IA, ''Then went he down and dipped himself seven times in Jordan accord ing to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of little child and he was clean" The whole story of the kings of Syria and of Israel, of Naa- man, the chief captain of Syria, the little captive Jewish maid, who told Naaman's wife of the power of the prophet of her people to cure the terrible deadly disease of leprosy, the wise counsel of Naaman's own servant, and the simple yet wonderful miraculous cure were graphically related. The obvious instructive lesson of this story as to the nature and eff feet of sin on the human heart and mind, the guilt and misery fastened on the soul, and the cure and quick relief by coming to Christ, believing in the full atonement made by him was taught most clearly in the last half of the sermon.
 The clear distinct utterance of the speaker, without reading or reference to notes, and his excellent delivery commanded easy and close attention.
 Rev MT. Williams cond ucted the Bible ser- vice in the afternoon.

ConntvIomnIasionara

The county commissioners were in session on Saturday, and heard the contested license case of Mrs. Annie .O'Connell, 22O Hamilton street. George k. Bill objected, on the ground that if the license was granted it would, in fact, be granted to Timothy J. O'Connell, who had been convicted of viola tions of the liquor law and who had recently returne from the West to take charge of the business. Another objection was that the signatures were fraudulent. The commis- sioners refused the license on the first objection.
 The Birmingham Commentators.
 Annie Smith, of Birmingham, who was tried before United States Commissioner Platt last week on 8 charge of passing coun- terfeit coin and discharged was rearrested by Chief Martin on her return to Birmingh ham The charge is the same as the former one, except that it is brought under the State law. She was taken before Justice Bullus and Grand Juror Yerew asked that the case be nolled, as sho had given important infoEma- tion to the chief of police on other and very important crimes. The case was therefore nolled.
 The ShIpwrecked Sailors.
 Captain Andrew Phillips, of the wrecked schooner Jane, has a severe cold and is ill at his hotel, the Austin House. MT. Morris, one of the crew, has left the hospital and gone to Essex, N. J., to ship as mate on 8 schooner. Superintendent Thrasher, of the Seamen's Bethel, supplied him with an outfit of clothing.

Sticking to Ones CalIing-SermOn by
 Rev. Er. DOnnen.
 If yesterday was tedious day for church goers it must have been equally so to non church -goers, the icy chains of winter hay ing laid restriction on pedestrianism and travel of all kinds, compelling us to ''com- mune with our own thoughts" In the after noon Dr. Dennen preached from 1st Corinth- ians, 7:2O, 'Let every man abide in his own calling" Every man should have a calling, this was evident from the fact that God put man in the garden to till the ground. ''Six days shalt thou labor" It is further seen from the teachings of Solomon; also Christ and the apostles. IdIers are sure to be busy bodies they are dangerous class. Another trouble is that some carry industry to the other extreme and neglect religion in their pursuit of wealth. Dr. Dennen thought that all the ordinary affairs of life could be and ought to be so conducted that the whole life might be hymn of praise'. Time spent in prayer is never lost, it is the oil to the machinery. He eulogized labor and proved that nothing valuable was acquir- ed without it, either in business or religion. The death of the Christian should resemble that of David.

NEW YoRK. March

 Taking the ofacisl r. cords guide, find that the mount of toays transactions exceeded those of Thursday. but fell short of thoae of Friday. On neither day there enough of business done to lift the market out of the slough of despoLd into which it had apparently fal1en It uphill work to ad- vance prices when Vanderbilt and Gould ap oiled themselves to the task it is now when it apparent that these operators have relaxed their eff forts to hoist prices and have left the market to for itself. With Vanderbilt and Gould withdrawing their support and only the traders to look after it. the market is left in half orphaned condition that interests nobody. Consequently whatever change occurred in quotations to-day was uttsrly without significance For the best part of the session prices fee bly, huttered within the limit of quarter or half Fer cent. During the last hour values strengthened, and at the considerable strength was shown, though final figures were not up to the best of the day.

The Athletic Games-One Man Hurt in
 the Sparr1ng-Phi Beta Kappa Again
 Change in College Management.
 Saturday afternoon the preliminary con- tests of the winter athletic meeting were con cluded and furnished plenty of excitement for the large crowd of spectators present. The first event was tug of war between '94 and s. $. s which resulted in favor of the latter by six inches. The heavy freshman team then pulled against team from '85. which weighed nearly two hundred pounds less, but was beaten by six and one quarter inches. In the high kick Barbour '85 scored eight feet and Brown 'S6 eight feet seven inches. The feather weight sparring was won by Wyeth '87 over Bruorton '87. All cut '84 s. s. s. was defeated by Warnock 'S6 s. s. S., and the same fate befell Anderson S5 s. s. $. at the hands of Goodlett 'S6 in the light weight. I1 the middle weight spar ring Williams 'S5 and Dyer '8e were entered. Dyer was utterly unable to parry the sk1llful blows of his antagonist and in the first round being caught under the was thrown down. His head struck against cleat on the side of the ring and he tainted. He was taken to his room and Dr. Foster called. He was unconscious at times during the day yesterday and will probably not be able to study again under two months. A very close contest folIowedr between Terry '85 and Cowles '86, the former being declared the winner. Goodwin '87 de- feated Speer 84 ia the heavy weight sparring. After the sawdust was laid down the wrest- ling began. The first contest was in the light weight, Warnock '86 S winning over Holmes 'S4. In the feather weight Goodhart '87 spreined his ankle and the bout was awarded 10 Kirkham 'S7. Lang 85 s: won easily over Townley '86 s. The last event was in many respects the most interesting of the afternoon, J. F. Scott '84 and Ber- tron '83 being very closely matched in the L S-I,k ll first and third falls The games will be con- cluded on Wednesday, which will be ladies day"

 Tomorrow evening Professor Sumner will deliver lecture on free trade in Mid dletown for the benefit of the Wesleyan university boat club
 Saturday evening the members of the Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa met in Linonia Hall and reorganized the society. Nine new members from '84 were initiated and about dozen more elected. The juniors will be initiated probably in June.
 considerable change has lately taken place in the college management. Instead of the old system of daily examination in some text book, all instruction is now given examinations. Should this plan prove suc- cussful further changes may be made. It is needless to say that the change is both well come and beneficial to the students.

Before Judge York in the Probate court on Saturday there was hearing on the petition of ex-Sheriff Charles s. Scott, formerly of this city but now of Brooklyn, New York, to set aside the will of his sister, Mary Ann Scott who died at the residence of Mrs. Re- becca Hall, No. SIS Elm street, on February 17th last. The deceased willed all her prop erty, valued at about $4,O00, to MT. Hall, except bequest of $5, which she gave to her brother. The will was drawn by Hugh Daley, and his testimony and that of those who witnessed Miss Scott's signature was
