The Point and Promise OF st. Johns
Gospel Discussed by Professor H. A.
Exice at United Chureh-The Beauf1-
fui Voice OF the Past.
An open heaven, as promised IN the last
verse of the first chapter Of st. John's gospel,
thereafter ye shall see heaven open and the
angels of God ascending and descending up
on the Son of Man." was the point OF Profess
sor R. A. Rice's remarks at United church
yesterday.
More good has been done by pointing out
the beautiful traits in human life than by as
sailing the bad ones, said the professor. John
assumes, as nearly all writers of the book do,
that the world is full of God. He has walked
this world. He walks it to day. Do you
doubt ita Come and see. These three words
are the point of Johns gospel
In speaking of miracles the professor said
everyone had right to skepticism. Christ
had no reproach for Nathaniel's skepticism,
The conversion of water into wine does seem
to put reason to the blush.
Scientifically it would seem impossible.
The knowing of these things is by the same
spiritual vision as that by which Shakespeare
saw the conquests of Caesar and Antony. It
is the overlooking of Gods life. 1t is sign
to the world.
"Thou shalt see the heavens open." Were
they shut thena Does not Hebrew history
witness they were open2 The Greeks and
Romans evidently had seen an open heaven,
but worship of earthly ends and objects had
closed them ere then. Rome worshipped q
Caesar. Rome was drunk with the wine of
her idolatry. The heavens were shut.
Christ's words, "Render unto Caesar the
things which are his" heralded the coming
contest. Its end was a citizenship not in
Jerusalem or Rome, but in an open heaven.
The Jews were prosecuted till they were
scorned by Rome and were scattered over
the face of the earth. The Roman and
Greek saw his Pristine national virtues reborn
In an open heaven. The miracle of history,
the miracle of miracles, was when one Of the
Caesars, god of all gods to the Romans, bowed
his head to the worship of crucifed Jew.
This greatest of miracles was also sign to
the world. 1t witnesses the burden put upon
history, witness of faith, hope and human
love. When you grow sick of the pestilential
order and frivolity of this age, listen to the
voice which spoke then and reaches even to
us across the centuries, "God so loved the
world that he gave his only begotten son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not
perish but have everlasting life''

The board is only too glad to take it up and
make great noise about 1t.
Another guzzles liquor, and soaks himself
with tobacco till past midnight, stuffs him
| up in the morning, and by that time begins
to reckon there is something the matter with
| the drainage, and he rushes to the ever
ready-to- hear-complaints board of health
about the plumbing.
Brooklyn's general death rate is 90 and 80
| per 1000, four or five more than that of
New Haven; its zymotic death rate is 8 and 2
per 1000.
The New Haven board of health report for
1887 records the general death rate less than
10. 05 per 1000 and 3.16 per 1000 from
zymotic disease, the latter less than one hall
Brooklyn rate. This same report page 20,
says there are 5,135 houses in New Haven
where there is bad plumbing, more than 49,.
500 privies and oesspools, yet the result Of
less than one-half the death rate from
zymotio disease In Brooklyn, where the
plumbing is all right and cesspools and
privies are for the most part abandoned al
together.
Boston's sanitary code has 189 sections; its
general death rate. is 20 per 1000, its zymotit
death rate 4 and 8 per 1000.
Washington is very like unto 1t.
New York, with its huge health service
These cities are all larger than New Haven
but the most eminent sanitarian in the Stat,
of Connecticut, If not in the universe, de
clsres that cities which have proper healtl
service ought to be and are more health,
than country towns.
In the Connecticut State board of healtl
report for 1887 DR.. Lindsey declares tina
notwithstanding the common council ha
refused to pass bylaws of this kind, ant
that it lie stingy with it's money, the healtl
of New Haven Is fully equal to that of othe
cities, and that this has been brought abou
by "moral suasion."
Now, ask, gentlemen, If this can be &C
complished by "moral suasion" is 1t not bet.
ter than to seize citizens by the coat collar
and jerk them into court and fine and i'm

One word about that dreadful germ. Lik
the gas it exists only in the brain of the san
itraian. It has been sought for for thirt.
years, and has not been found. All of this
talk about bacteria is sheer nonsense. Gen

the reasons why some people will not touch
1t is that they dread the annoyance of the
board of health.
Let these bylaws be passed, and plumb
ing inspector will be called for, in less than
q twelve month he will want two assistants,
and the three will want a clerk. There's
millions in it. Nothing but the most urgent
public necessity can sanction the passage
of snch bylaws. The reports
of the board of health show
that there is no such necessity. There Is
overwhelming proof that these bylaws would
be useless were there such necessity. The
board of health has through it's salaried
agents done what 1t could to retard the pros
perity of our city by spreading in the public
prints our misstatements about our city, its
soil was reeking with filth and ready to ex-
plode in typhoid fever and diphtheria; its
water was polluted so that it was said to be
the cause of dysentery, typhoid fever and
malaria; there was danger that pestilence
would break out on account of the air, and in
this last communication the officer said there
was no money in the hands of the health
board to avoid this pestilence. Can 1t be
these gentlemen believed all thiss They then
set to work to show that New Haven was one
of the most healthy towns in the country.
I defy any man to examine this sanitary
business and not burst out in profane swear
ing unless he has previously disciplined him

The New Ravens left on their trip. yester-

Elm City to New York, where they left last
night at o'clock for Wilkesbarre. They ar

to Wilkesbarre is disastrous to any club in
the league, as there is no other city to stop
off at between Wilkesbarre and Newark.
Where team should get four guarantees but
two are now forthcoming. The New Ravens
have lost money on every trip to Wilkesbarre

were making a move to get out of the league.
So much the better, for that will leave but

cause the New Ravens failed to play per-
feet fielding game against the Lowells on
Friday. 1t doesn't look very much as If he
wasn't supported when Lowell earned three
runs off him, and the New Ravens but one
off German. The New Ravens were outbat-
ted; that's the sum and substance of it. And
the reason Horner was batted so hard is east
ly explained. In the Hartford game he had
to retire because in curving the ball por-
ton of the skin was torn off the very finger
with which he curves the ball. He was not
really in condition to pitch on Friday against
Lowell, but he did so and suffered pain all
through the game. 1t was impossible for
him to be effective as usual.

Knowlton accompanied the team and will
be played behind the bat, provided his arm
is all right New Haven people should be
little more charitable toward player than
they were to Knowlton when he played right

who came here and made splendid impress
sion to start off with. After that they have
fallen off in their work. This was the first
game that Knowlton has played in this sea-
son, as he had just got out of college.
Everyone remembers what a magnificent
left field he played for Harvard. He didn't
start off we'll, but he is very apt to surprise
the people if his arm gets in condition. Last
year he was an elegant thrower to bases, and
stood third out of the twenty catchers in the
Central league.
