q He spent some time in running over
the books, and finally his eye bright
ened, he ran over the leaves of vol
ume eagerly, glanced at the date, and,
clos ng it reverently stroked the cover
with caressing hand, while his whole
frame trembled with eagerDess. He
stepped to the desk and paid the price
asked without murmur: then left
with light step and the satisfied air of a
cOnqueror. Upon inquiry it was found
that the volume was one long coveted,
to complete a series of ancient works
that the old gentleman had been some
years in gathering together.
There are many cares in connection
with the business that make it any,
thing but bed of roses, even for one
whose heart Is in his work. Many of
the volumes contain rare engravingS
and copperplates, which are often stolen
from the books, even though the most
scrupulous care is taken. A clever de-
vice is resOrted to in order to extract a
page without making the usual noise
connected with the tearing of paper. A
thread is wet, and slipped at the inside
margin of the coveted page. The book
is then closed upon 1t. and after A mill
ute it will slip out with the least bit of
eXertiOn on the part of the thief.
The place is often made use of by
different classes of that part of human
ity who are ever striving to obtain
something for nothing, and they will
pore over the books of reference, the
historical works and old paper files,
taking copious notes for future refer
ence.
Often an affecting scene is witnessed.

1t Should Be Love for Mankind.
Not an Excuse for Bigotry.
Rev. W. j. Lhamon, at the Church of
Christ, yesterday spoke upon "Ortho-
doxy of the Head and Heart" Text:
"This is his comman dment, that we
should believe in the name of His Son
Jesus Christ and love one another.''-
John L, iii, 23.
Formerly orthodoxy, he said, was an
excuse for bigotry. 1t is hard to guess
orthodoxy means allegiance to success
sion of infallible old sinners. In
this camp of Professionals Ar.
minianism is orthodox, and in
that one SOcinianism. and in
still another Calvanism-at least so it
was supposed till recently. 1t seems
that we must now wait for a majority
vote in a Pan-Presbyterian council to
know whether Calvin was orthodox or
heterodOx. We may fairly raise the
question whether the growth of intelli-
gence and charity is not making this
term ridiculous. Surely it will do SO if
we do not presently reach Christ's own
basis of faith and life. Christ is ortho-
doX, and he alone can save orthodoxy
from contempt among Christians them
selves.
There is an orthodoxy of the head.

The Jews had that kind of orthodoxy
when they crucified Christ for a

they invented the inquisition, when
they murdered the Huguenots of
France, and when they sent the Duke
of Alva to hold his council of blood''
in the Netherlands. Rome would to-day
burn Bruno and his admirers if she
could, but the world has grown
too human to tolerate such papal bon
fires. Protestants are not free from the

But while so grateful for the growing
sentiment against lotteries, we ought to
ask whether the evil that was in them

gambling dens? No, for they are COLI

Hardly, for that is not unnecessary feat

attended with Misrepresentation and
dishonesty. as other business often is.
Doubtless lottery advertisements great

refreshments have been known to;
doubtless lottery agents lie. like light
ning-rod agents, and doubtless many
men are beguiled to buy lottery tickets

value at all, Such dishonesty is not pc
culiar to the lottery system-and
fraud at all-but men take their

as SO many suppose? No, for this ele-
ment of chance enters more or less into
most business and life. Appeals to
chance are even sanctioned 10y Biblical
use; and the Holy Land was all assigned
by lot, and even one of the sacred
apostles chosen by lot. Even so high
an authority as President Porter, of
Yale college, denies that appeals to
chance are immoral, and defends what
he calls ''the use of lotteries or rafting
in benevolent or religious fairs" against
those who cenSure it.
The real evil in lotteries is not in
their mere appeal to chance, but in their
use of it to seek fortunes without earn
ing them. and at the expense of others.
Lotteries are in this way great evil,
leading people to neglect honest indus
try, and to live on each other instead of
by their own labor. But this evil
should be censured when seen outside
of lotteries. 1t is just as bad to live on
each other by cunning as by chance.

the same evil that underlieS gambling;
and is the same whether it be censured
in Louisiana under the name of lottery
| or honored elsewhere under the name of
law.
And another evil of lotteries is that
they harm especially the poor. Most
wise men know enough to keep out of
them, but the ignorant are deluded and
made poorer. In this respect, they
are even worse than gambling; for it is
better that rich gamblers should win
each others wealth than that the
poor should loose their little. But this
evil. too. is not confined to lotteries,
and is just as bad in whatever way it
comes. 1t is no worse to win gain from
the labOring class by the lottery wheel
than 10y factory or car wheels. Any
business system or custom which OPP
presses the poor is an evil, and just as
bad an evil, whether it be done by a
bribed legislature in Dakota or by men
anywhere. We will denounce lotteries,
but not forget their evils elsewhere,
and work for the full justice and char

CREED REVISION.
The Actual Belief of the People
should be Expressed.

The Actual Belief Of the People
should be Expressed.
Rev. Marion d. Shutter spoke upon
"Creed Revision" at the Church of the
Redeemer last night. After speaking
in the highest terms of its ancient and
honorable history, he said: This
church Las long regarded her theology
as unassailable as her history-the
symbol, the Westminster confession, Ian
impregnable fortress. But VIII lie say
ing ''peace and safety" Sudden de-
struction' is threatened. The fortress
is asSalled. Biblical criticism, science,
the growth of the republican
spirit among nations, and the
spirit of humanity, have all been
at work. These forces have all invaded
the stronghold, and now the question is:
What and how much modification is
necessary? How great the demand for
change was unknown before the matter
was referred to the preSbyterieS by the
general assembly. A few days ago
forty-five presbyteries out OF the total
of oil had voted upon the proposition,
and out of the 1Orty-tive thirty-three
favored revisionl What changes are
asked? They are stated in the report
of the committee on revision, and put
into compact form by Prof. Briggs
i'll his speech before the New York
presbytery. They desire to blot out
first. Reproductions; second, the damna-
ton OF infants; third, the damnatlOn of
the entire heather wOrltk fourth, that
Roman Catholics are idOlators; and
fifth, that the pope is anti-Chrlst. And
they desire to put in full and frank
statement of Gods love for all mankind !
These are the changes asked upon the
one hand and denied upon the other.
1t may surprise MANY people to know
that such things exist in any confession
of to-day. Why should the changes not
be made? u Creeds are human, not
divine. ~ They mark epochs in
religious thoughts. AS old DR..
Alexander used to say, They are re-
ports OF progress" 81 The thought
of to-day has the same right to express
itself as had the thought of yesterday.
a. Ii it does not express itself it will
inevitably foster insincerity. o. The
changes are all in the line OF progress.
If the church, SO numbered, had accom-
pliShed so much III the past, what will
it not do free from the burden? SO long
as creeds are necessary we have right
to ask: First, That they be such as ex-
press the actual belief of the great mass
Of the people and ministers of the
churches. No reasonable man objects to a
harness, but he cannot submit to hand
cuffs. David could not fight in Saul's
armor. Second, That it be such as can
be preached from the pulpit. Third,
1t should leave out those things that
cause people needlessly to stumble.
Fourth, That its central doctrine will be
that to which preachers and people at
tach the most importance. In this case
they ask to have the love of God made
prominent. 1t is now cast in the SHADOW,
or, to speak more exactly, entirely OBJ
liberated by doctrines more stern and
gloomy. This dOctrine-the love of
GOd-sO sadly neglected by the creed,
Testament and woven into its very
texture. Can it eyer be made zoo
prominent?

If one should inadvertently drop in
at the secondhand book store on Fourth
avenue, near the chamber of commence,
it would not take powerful stretch of
the Imagination for him to feel that he
had dropped into one Of those scenes
that Charles Dickens loved so well to
describe. Tier upon tier of books, in
various stages of dilapidation, arise
before the eye, and the smell of must,
peculiar to ancient volumes, hangs
upon the air. 1t is place for dreams,
and the most matter-of-fact man must
feel the imp. ession of awe that is given
by that vast conglemeration of the
learning, the wit and the research of
centuries.
Mr.. Raymer, the proprietor. Is
pleasant gentleman with sharp, dark
eye and scent for specially antique
volume that years of association with
that class of works have rendered doubly
keen. He admits that he is a worse
crank on the book subject than most of
his customers, and his eye kindled with
a keen sense of enjoyment as he led the
reporter to his favOrite shelf and hand
ed down, one after another, large. bulky
volumes bound in rough sheepskin and
printed in bold black type in every con-
ceivable language.
One of the choicest volumes is one
bound in vellum with wood covers,
printed in 1888. 1t is the first four chap
tiers of the Bible, printed in church
Latin, entitled "Annotation by Phil
ippe Belmchthorus." 1t bears SPLEEN
didly engraved title page, and is gem
of the first water as ancient volumes go.
There are ponderOus Greek histories
printed in 1879. an Isocrates of 1870 in
Latin with handsomely colored title

The antique book store gives an ample
chance for the study of human nature.

amusing or sad incident does not occur
to break the mOnotOny. Some OF the

was because they failed to obey the
Christ or disciple to the last jot or little.
During the sermon the members took
notes in their scratch books. Then they
all testified something after this fash
ion:
Mrs. Whitney, am glad that George
Jacob Schweinfurth has chosen me to
spread the teachings of the church Tri-
umphant.
Mrs. Osborne-I am so happy that
have found the true Christ in Mr..
Schweinfurth. Twill endeavor to cor
rect all my faults and attain to glory.

mon often before but now love and I'M

ever. l will be more obedient. ETC., etc.
Then there was another prayer, more
singing and symptoms of a genuine
Methodist revival fervor. The whole
service lasted three hours and half.
With the exception of many illusions to
the new Christ, it resembled an ordi-
nary prayer meeting. l wanted to
know the conditions of joining The new
religion, but Whitney was cautious.
He said the church Triumphant was
only in embryo. Nothing was certain,

ABOUT LOTTERIES.
Rev. ii. NJ. Simmons Gives an In
teresting Talk on the Subject.

At the First Unitarian church yester-
day Rev. 81. NJ. Simmons preached on
the question: "What is the real evil
in lotteries and how far has it been sup
pressed?" He said there had been great
improvement in public sentiment Since
last century, when gambling was so
common, and even DR.. johnson, the
great mOraliSt and champion of the
church, spoke of the evil with
more defense than censure; when Addi-
son drew lottery prize, and West
minister bridge was built by lotteries.
and even the British museum originated
from one; when France had LOTTERY

delphia finished its steeple by another.
of which Benjamin Franklin was di-
rector. There has been a great i'm
provement in this century since its
early years when our national con-
gress authorized lotteries; and it

in France, and praising them as 1.-THE
