WRITINGS OF JAMES FREEMAN CLARKE.

One of the freshest and most helpful of
our writers on theological subjects is James
Freeman Clarke. He is now seventy-six
years old, but he is hale and hearty, and as
vigorous as ever he was. He is publishing
new books with great vgor, getting out two
or three each year. He has lost nothing in
intellectual power, for his later books are his
best, the broadcast in tone and the wisest in
their learning. He told me not long since
that he could work as we'll now as ever he
could, and that he never more fully enjoyed
intellectual labor.
His Orthodoxy: Its Truths and its Errors"
is familiar to every one interested in the lib
eral theology it interprets. His first work on
the ''Ten Great Religions" has had an extern
sive circulation, and has helped many per-
sons to knowledge of the other religions of
the world. These are books which ought to
be in every liberal library.
wish to say word about three of his more
recent books, which may not be so familiar
to all, all of them published by Ticknor &
Company, of Boston. The first of these is
his "Ideas of the Apostle Paul" This is an
aIIetnpt-duu very SUCCESSFUL On6-tO IN
terpret the writings and the life of Paul in
harmony with the broad theology which DR..
Clarke accepts. He is successful in proving
that Paul was not an Augustinian or a CAL
whist, but liberal and profoundly spiritual
thinker, who had no desire to set forth dog
matte theology. The book is one that will
open up new lines of thought to most read
ers, and it will prove great help in the in
depreciation of the Bible. The distinctly
spiritual character of the liberal theology has
nowhere been more fully stated than in this
work; and DIR. Clarke is successful in proving
that Paul was the first theologian to define
its spirit and to illustrate its methods.
Another of his books is called "Self-C Cult
urea series of lectures read to the young
people of his church some years ago. This
book has had an extensive circulation, prob
ably greater than any other of DIR. Clarke's
books. 1t seems to have fitted into a popu-
lar want, and to have said a word of help to
many young persons. 1t is in every way well
calculated to arouse in the young a sense OF

Yesterday we loaded our Sunday-school
pupils in big wagons and hauled them to
the woods to picnic ground about seven
miles away. The day was fine and you
can rest assured they had an enjoyable
time. 1t is very gratifying to learn that
they all arrived home without an acct
dent after such an enjoyable indulgence,

The Magic Of a Voice, novel by Marga-
ret Russell Macfarlane, which Messrs. Cas-
sell d Company have in press, is story of
country life among the higher classes of
Mecklenburg. 1t is a musical novel and the
characters are drawn from life. The authors
style is simple and direct, and the story has
a special interest on account of the informa-
ton it gives in regard to the manners and
customs of type of German society rarely
presented to the novel reader.

The young people of our church on last
Friday and Saturday, July and 3, gave
the entertainment of the japanese we'd

affair was patronized better than any
thing our church has gotten up for long
time. Everybody was delighted. 1t pre-
sented beautiful sight. The stage was
finely decorated, and the Japs richly cos,

and We recommend it to any of our sister
churches that wish to increase their
finances and have good time. On last
Sabbath eve we had the pleasure of lis

NO MANS LAND.

Mr.. II. J. Harding has returned from
Eagle City, "No Mans Land" looking hale
and hearty, but so metomorphosed by wind
and sun that his family must have been
puzzled in deciding whether it was he or
someone else. Eagle City is located near
the center of No Mans Land, twenty-five or
thirty miles from the Kansas line, on Beaver
creek, bright running stream about the
size of the Little Arkansas river, with num-
erous tributaries. Mr.. Harding says the
soil is excellent, and that the rain fall there
last year was abundant. He says the entire
strip equals the lands of the counties Of wes-
tern Kansas, and that it is filling up very
rapidly, and that as soon as the grass APP
pears the whole country will be taken up by
settlers. The government has never section
lied that territory, but there Is a bill now
pending in congress which provides for its
survey, and also for titles to settlers. The
new capital or headquarters was named in
honor of the Wichita EAGLE, and is already
lively little place. Mr.. Harding will re-
turn fin few days. In the meantime he will,
no doubt, with pleasure, answer all ques-
tions about that, to most people, new, unex-
plored, and to many, unheard-of country,
mo Mans Land"

THE GREATEST SHOW YET.

The Little Nugget is without doubt one
Of the neatest shows that has been here this
season. The piece is conglomerstion of
refined fun. and the actors aud actresses are
ladies and gentlemen who do their work in
such a way as TO call forth the greatest en-
thusiasm, no. only for their artistic accom-
plishments, but for the easy grace which
education and gentle feelings alone win give.
They play TO the higher and purer emotions
of the human heart, and things tina! we
would hiss if done in bungling way they
handle SO perfectly and SO naturally that the
house is kept in q continuous roar. The
show from beginning 10 end is filed with
irresistible surprises, and just IS you make
up your mind that it is shame 10 laugh at
such foolishness, off you 20 again worse
than ever. There are but seven persons in
the cast, but they are the liveltest little
crowd that was ever seen on the opera house
