Gods Hand Manifest Through the
Nations History.
Rev. Levi Gilbert preached ct the First
N. E. church yesterday morning from the
text:
&Exodus xxxsii:14-"My presence shall 60
with thee aud / shall give thee rest"
His theme was "God in the National
Life" The preacher referred to the great
size of this country. its prosperity and inn
mense population and the absolute de-
pendence of the people on God for the
necessaries Of life. It is not only in its
material products that the country is
blessed. 1t has produced some of the
greatest names in all branches of science.
literature and art. As orators there are
Webster and Phillips; poets, Longfellow,
Bryant. Lowell, Whittier; writer's, Irving,
Hawthorne and Bancroft; statesmen. Clay.
Calhoun. Lincoln: warriors, Grant, Sher-
man. Lea galaxy Of names such as few
other countries can boast of.
He traced the history of the struggle for
freedom. It was finally won, but at an
enormous price. We are Tree born; our
fathers were not We being accustomed to
freedom of speech and press too often for
get how these things came about. The
tree of liberty grew not out of the schol-
ar's study. From soil torn by cannon and
drenched in blood it grew. In ali our
grand history there is to be seen the hand
of God.
the preacher went on to point out the
manifestations of God In history. and said
it was His purpose to perfect man. govern
ment being simply an agent of divine will
It is in society that man is to work out the
problem of his perfection. As nation We
are not yet out of the experimental stages.
There is as yet no crowding. but immigra-
ton is too large, and much of it is COM
posed not Of the oppressed of other coun-
tries but the Disconnected. We are not yet
homogeneous people, but we are working
toward that stage. He referred TO the
characteristics of the American people;
their energy and intellectual quickness, and
thought they would be invincible if only
steadied by great moralties and spirituali-
ties. We have much to thank God for, not
withstanding troubles that have disturbed
the country of late.

Grateful Witnesses.
Union services OF the various Presby-
terrain congregations in this city were held
yesterday morning at the Second Presby-
terian church. Rev. Benjamin Parsons
preached from the text: Psalms xv:6,
THE lines are fallen unto me in pleas
ant places; yea. have eoodly heritage. !"
In the course of his remarks the preacher,
to impress his ideas upon the congrega-
ton. introduced three speakers, an in
dulged "child of providence" an "Ameri-
can Citizen and an American Chris
tian." The first mentioned assumes that
our condition and prospects have been
about all We can expect. Peace, plenty
and prosperity are diffused among US as
we have been blessed with universal peace.
We find contentment everywhere, in the
log hut as in the great mansion. Thanks
giving is kept in thousands of homes.
That it is not kept in all is because even
today there are Humans and Ahabs who,
not content with what they have, wish TO
encroach on their neiehbors' happiness.
The American citizen thinks Of his great
country, with all its advantages, its institu-
tons, its schools and all those things which
betoken future grand beyond precedent
in the history of countries. But this love
OF country is natural and is found in the
Greenlander and Icelander 40 we'll as in our
own prosperous citizens. 1t is not Boosting
to say that God has given US country
which in extent, climate. resources is the
choicest portion of this continent. The
drift of the surplus population of other
countries to this is the most significant of
the signs OF the times. and amounts to
three-quarters OF million every year. The
reason for this is found in the superlatiye
attractions of this great land. which is q
land OF Beulah to them. As to the govern
ment. it is to that, under God, that our
prosperity is largely due. Although it has
defects. it is. on the whole, the best govern
ment on earth. The principles of justice.
truth, patriotism among the people are the
bulwarks of the republic.
The American Christian rejoices in the
fact that churches are organized and sus-
tanned throughout the land. The rights of
private Interpretation OF the Bible, accord
ing to the dictates of ones own conscience
in the light each possesses, sets us far
above people among, and over whom
priestcraft exercises a dominant power. We
are thankful Tor this and other blessings.
We are thankful for a manifestly increas-
ing desire on the part of all Christian de-
nominations for real. and, therefore. eff
fective Christian unity. On Thanksgiving
day, especially. we should be thankful
for our blessings OF the past, and also make
resolutions for better life in the future.

TWO STEAMERS CoLLIDE.
The Greyhound and the Mcrwin Com
Together During . Fog.


Passengers on the steamers Greyhound
and Merwin received Q scare and shaking
up yesterday when in midstream between
this city and Tacoma, that made them feel
for time that they were to meet with
watery graves. 1t was about noon, and
the fog was that dense and thick that slices
of it would make good gang planks. The
Merwin was headed up stream. and the
Greyhound had her stem pointed for Seat
tie. and those who were on the two boats
are inclined to the belief that the pilot of
the Greyhound was responsible for the col
lisipn. They say that the pilot Of the
Merwin was appraised of the approach of
the Grey hound by hearing the exhaust Of
the steam from her machinery, and that
he blew the whistle and rang for the stop
page of the engines loud enough for the
pilot of the approaching boat to hear. The
Merwin was slowed up. but it appears that
the Greyhound's crew failed to heed the
alarm and bumped into the Merwin. crush
ing two or three tenders to pieces and
knocking q hole in the pilot house and
cabin.
Fortunately no one was injured, though
several ladies who were seated in the cabin
OF the Merwin were thrown violently from
their chairs to the aoor. After an ex-
change of nautical courtesies from the
crews of the respective boats they contin.
ued on their journey.

The Tacoma Boys Beat the Home Team

showed the good results OF practice and

their rushing and tackiing being especially
strong the Seatties were weakened by
the absence of their captain, Robert Work.
who is laid up with a crippled knee, and
their play was devoid of team work. Their
backs. half-backs and goals put up a good
defensive game, but the forwards showed
lack OF concerted action, and fought shy Of
Tacoma's rushes.
At 2:45 the Tacomas kicked off and i'm
mediately began to rush matters. The bali
was carried by the center right up to the
Seattle goal. where Darling shot pretty
goal in the short time OF three minutes.

Tacoma, but with an occasional rally bv
Seattle. Finally, after half an hours plav.
Seattles carried the bail up to the Tacoma
goal. but with bad shooting put it past.
Tacoma's superior play again began to as

forty minutes. A few minutes later the
Tacomas kicked their fourth goal With five

HAPPY LITTLE ORPHANS.
They Enjoy Themselves With Turkey
and Sweetmcats.

Forty-four happy little boys and girls sat
down to superb Thanksgiving dinner at
the Orphans Home yesterday. They
fairly revealed in turkey. Such turkey,
too. 1t is safe to say that in no home In
the city were fatter or more tender birds
served with cranberry sauce. This neces-
sary feature Of the days repast had been
furnished by the police department, whose
members are acknowledged judges of the
good things of this life. They did not 20
half way in their gift. either, for the bros
were sent ready dressed and cooked, so
but to cut and carve for the plates OF the
little ones.
And it was not only in this part of the
dinner that the children had been amply
provided for. A prodigious quantity Of
pies and cakes and sweetmeats of every
description had been contributed by the
pupils of the public schools along with
other things. such as clothing. shoes and
underwear. An immense contingent Of
the school children from Mercer street
school. South and Central schools arrived
at the Home about $3.50 on Wednesday
afternoon carrying their offerings, which
they deposited in the dining-room, almost
filling that capacious chamber. Never be-
fore had so many children congregated in
the Home, and for the space of an hour the
place was enlivened with their presence
and resounded with their happy laughter.
And before they left they took good care to
carry the good things they had brought
into the lar0er and closets, and behaved
altogether, as the matron said, Tin beau
tifui. kind way that did ones heart good to
see."
It was o'clock when dinner began, The
turkeys were carved and huge platefui,
with cranberry sauce galore, was laid in
each little urchin's place. Then when this
was accomplished the dinner bell rang, and
first the sixteen girls filed in and tosk
their seats. and then the twenty -eight boys
took their seats, and when grace had been
said all set to with q will, and the way that
turkey disappeared was marvellous to be-
mold. And alter the turkey came the pies
and cakes, and they were hugely enjoyed.
Surely there never was such banquet
served to them before. 1t mattered little
that some Of the little eyes were larger
than the little stomachs. The remem.
brance of that feast will linger for many
long day with the orphans at the Home.

OBLIGATION AND PROPHECY.

National Thanksgiving q National Oh
legation and Prophecy" was the subject of
Rev. Alfred Inwood's sermon at Battery
Street NJ. X. church. His text was: 20
give thanks unto the Lord, for He is
good; for His mercy endureth for ever"
Psalms cxvin: 1. The preacher said that
a nations custom is greater than nations
words; God" in the national life is more
than in the nations constitution. This is
not only the most democratic, but is also
the most theocratic country. In far
deeper sense than the old Hebrew could
say. can IL be said of this land: HE hath
not dealt so with any people" Our history
is a revelation of God: at every crisis He
has made Himself known. He Is the I'M

year; and gifts measure obligation. Obi

Jones referred to the many disturbances
between labor and capital during the past
year. and the calamities of various kinds
which had visited as. He maintained.
however. that these were more than Offset
by the increase in the prosperity of the
country and the more general diffusion of

his hearers to remember that they should
not offer up Thanksgiving alone for tenn
poral blessings. but also for their spiritual
blessings.
