Der of Commerce, the following letter:
have been received:
Dear Sr:-In reply to your favor oil
the 24th inst. relative to memorializinG
Congress for an appropriation for a
suitable government building in this
city, have to report as follows:
L. The amount of rent paid for this
Office is $50 per month, payable monthly.
2. We have no lease on this building.
3. AS regards the prospective in
crease of rentals, we have every reason
to suppose that our present rent will be
increased, owing to the scarcity of de-
sira bic office rooms end location in this
city.
4. The peril to which the records of
this Office are exposed is q matter
worthy of serious consideration, as in
the event of fire, the greater portion, if
not all of our records, would be
destroyed, and while some of these
could be duplicated from the General
Land Office at Washington, there are
others which could not-more partiu-

A Great Victory
a Terrible Case Of ScYofuIa
Cured by
Hoods SarsapariIIa

In the winter of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms.
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and ar0undmy neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, / was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation Of W. j.
Huntley, druggist, of Leckport, I was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less.' do not know what It may
have done for others, but do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an
my gratitude send these facts unsolicited,
and am ready to verify the authenticity of
this cure, by personal correspondence with
any one who doubts it." CHARLES A. ROB

in these papers to dog show or cock

and the unsavory revelations of the di-

THE 'sUNDAY-SOHoOL UNION.

The Sundsy-school Union of Chicago
and vicinity is proving it's right to exist
by series of very useful meetings.
These meetings are held each month, and
have been occasions of great interest.
The meeting of the last month was
held at st. PsuPs church, this city, on
the 18th, and was attended by over one
hundred delegates and visitors. The
afternoon session was devoted to the pro-
priety of offering prizes for Sunday
school attendance. Mrs. NJ. R. M. Wal
lace furnished paper on the subject,
and it was discussed during the remain
der of the afternoon. In the evening the
subject was "How can we interest our
young people in the BibleP" This topic
was discussed by the Hon. Samuel Kerr,
of the Church Of the Redeemer, and the
related subject, allow can we get our
scholars TO memorize the Scriptures?"
was presented by Rev. L. W. Brigham.

OUR MINISTER'S MEETING.

Owing to pressure on our columns
last week we failed to report the meeting
of the Ministers Association held on
Monday, Feb 20, at the Western Branch.
Rev. @. s. Nickerson presided and devo-
tional exercises were conducted by Rev.
Miss Chaplin. The following members
were present, in addition to those named:
Rev. Messrs. Adams, Brigham, Cantwell,
Hanson, Small, Webster, l.. G. Powers,
of Minneapolis; r. g. Spafford, of Ra-
cine; and Stanford Mitchell, of Boston.
Rev. Mr.. VanArsdale presented the in
terests of the American Aid Association,
of which he is Secretary. This is an or
ganization which has for its object the
rescue of children from poverty and des-
titution, and placing them in families
where they will receive proper moral and
religious training. The Association en-
dorsed Mr.. VanArsdale's work, and the
pastors agreed to appoint committees
of the Association in their several par
ishes.
No paper was read at this session, but
interesting reports were submitted by the
pastors, giving encouraging words from
the various churches.
Rev. FL. Slade was appointed chairman
of a committee to make special record
for the Association on the life and minis
try OF the late Dr. Balch.

MODERN BIGOTRY VS.. HUMANITY
AND CHRISTIANITY,

(Ravenna, CO., Democratic Press, Feb. 49,
Last Sunday evening, in the Universe
list church, full congregation listened
to an able and interesting lecture on this
subject. Rev. Mr.. Wilson spoke with
out notes, and in a very kind and Christ
ian spirit. Gratefully and emphsticslly
did he recognize the fraternsl DISPOSE
ton manifested toward him and his
church by many in other denominations.
He said that the history of religion is not
always pleasant reading. frequently
been manifested. In the name Of Christ
many OF the worst crimes against human
ity have been committed. But the world
is growing better. The old methods of
torture are no longer tolerated. And
yet bigotry, social, political and ecclesias-
tical, still exists. 1t has recently been
exhibited in Portage county, in refusing
to open churches for funerals, because
Universalist minister was to preach. It
has been manifested in excluding Uni
versalists from "Union" Thanksgiving
meetings, and in protesting to arrange
for Union Temperance meetings, yet tax
ing the precaution to exclude at least one
pastor and his church. Orthodox clergy
men are unwilling to have religious asso-
ciations'with Universalists; and one min
lister went so far as to advise his congre-
cation not to encourage or countenance
the Universalist church.
Some of this bigotry is inherited; some
is the result of education, and much is
caused by narrow, false and dying the
ology, that is afraid OF the light-a theol-
ogy that rests upon assumption rather
than everlasting truth-that DR.. Hodge,
the distinguished Princeton theologian,
says is " Not system of common sense,
but of profound and awful my stery."
Not one distinguishing fundamental
principle of this theology can be tho
roughly embodied in life without incur
ring the condemnation of the civilized
world. And when orthodox ministers
stand by the impenitent dead their creede
are powerless for comfort. IL they fur
nish any consolation to the mourners
they have to borrow it from Universalism
Yet this theology that cannot be lived.

row, assumes to place flaming sword al

ing to all who do not and cannot accept
| it, you cannot enter.
This bigotry, wherever it exists, is the
foe Of humanity and Christianity. Ar
honest difference of opinion should moi
make enemies. We should always re-
| spect honest convictions. Mr.. Wilson
said that he could say "God bless you,'
to ell churches; that he had tried to treat
all with courtesy, and was ready to work
in all honorable ways for the helping Of
humanity. Every man made better by
other churches helps make Universalism
true in fact. He exhorted his church to
be true and loyal to conviction, to be
courteous and friendly to all, not to be
bigots but Christians, and seek to make
the church a still greater power for help.

THE TENNESSEE DEBATE,

Arrangements have been made for the
Tennessee debate to begin on Tuesday,
March 20, and continue for four morn
ings and evenings. Mr.. Hall will con-
duct the argument for the doctrine of
endless punishment, for two days, DR..
Hanson replying. The latter will advo-
cate universal salvation for the last two
days, Mr.. Hall replying. 1t is expected
that the debate will be reported tachi-
graphically and published in book form.
This discussion promises to be a thorough
and interesting one. There is great in
terest in it in Henderson, Tenn, where it
is to be held in the Baptist church. 1t
will be remembered that this discussion
was deferred from last January, at the
desire of Mr.. Hall, as he was not pre-
pared for discussion to be published.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1888-03-03

THE Gospel Banner has in course Of
publication series of articles from the
pen of The editor on "The Successful
Life" They are devoted to discussions
of the elements of true success in the
several relations of life, covering a wide
range of valuable suggestion, and involv-
ing the most wholesome philosophy and
helpful instruction in regard to life and
its manifold duties, individual, social, do
nestle and religious. The suggestion
comes that these articles be gathered
into volume. We trust that Br. Mead
will accede to the request, and give our
church the benefit of these valuable ar
ticles in collected form. We need such
books for our home instruction and as
helps to the development of the higher
life of our people. Such volume as the
one proposed cannot fail of useful mis-
sion, and would undoubtedly be largely
purchased and cad.

The ladies of st. Paul's parish will hold
a unique and beautiful bazaar in the
chapel of the new church, on Thursday
and Friday of this week. Booths will be
arranged to represent "The Festival Of

for some time, and the proceeds will be de-
voted to the support of the Free Kinder
gaIten of the parish. Let all members of
st. Paurs congregation be present on one,

in the new chapel should be made sig

may be spent, and at the same time a
worthy enterprise assisted.

ing their mission in orthodox churches
where it would cost the preacher his
popularity were he to preach the same
doctrines in his sermons.
While Universalists are in sympathy
with all legitimate efforts to rouse men
from their indifference and to bring
them to the responsibilities Of the re-
ligious life, we cannot consistently en-
dorse this kind of revivalism, or
even remain silent when such preach
ing as characterized the Whittle revival
is made the burden of appeal. 1t be-
comes the duty Of every Universalist
preacher to expose the false theology
and absurd presentations of the gospel
that characterize the most of the So
called revivals. We need revival of
religion, but the world does not need a
revival of the old theology, such as ''re-
visits these glimpses of the moon" I'M
der Maj. Whittle, Harrison, Pentecost
and others of that class of evangelists.
All such occasions as the Cedar Rap
ids revival should be embraced to point
out specifically the crudities and enor-
mites of the orthodox system, while at
the same time, periods of religious in
terest in every community should be
utilized by Universalists for the dis
semination Of their own faith. Let us
by all means have revival wherever
we can secure a larger attention to
spiritual things and an attentive hear.
ing from the public. The line of de-
marcation between the orthodox reviv-
al and genuine revival of religion is
always to be clearly recognized. 1t is
our duty to the Church and to the gen.
eral public to allow no misunderstood
ing on this point. The Cedar Rapids
pastor has our thanks for his timely
and effective sermon.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1888-03-03

THE Christian Iptelligencer is particu-
larry explicit in approving Rev. II. o.
Pentecost's position in not holding on
to his congregational pastorate in New
ark, N. j., when his new departure
was announced, and that cratic but
evidently sincere clergyman adopted
the notions of Henry George, and pro-
posed also religious change of base.
The church was sadly divided. Mr..
Pentecost resigned, saying 81 have
reached the elimination of mental
and spiritual experience that makes it
impossible for me to remain longer in,
or be identified with, Orthodox Chris
tianity. 1 think have no right to
drive these people''-meaning the old
members of the church they
have helped to organize. Many of
them were here before 1 came. 1t is
their church home. Their rights are
greater than mine" The Intelligencer
commends this utterance: Admirable,
clear-sighted honesty would that there
were more of it! 1t is affectionately
commended to the preachers who hold
on to pastorates while rejecting and
denouncing the faith of the church
they profess to serve" There is no
doubt that the Inteligencer is right in
commencing Mr.. Pentecost. Such hon.
esty is worthy of commentator and
also imitation.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1888-03-03

"DENoMINATIoNALI says the
New York Witness, sis good thing so
far as it enables persons of different
casts of mind to find congenial church
homes, and as it acts as stimulant to
Christian work. 1t is very evil thing
when it creates feelings of exclusive
ness or jealousy, or when it results in
discord and dsunion in the family Of
God" The Witness does not specify
what denominations it includes in ''the
family of God" We infer that if the
facts were known, the phrase would
lose something of its comprehensive
ness as used above.
