Beecher' s-stiu remains in control Of The
! Christian Union, imparting to it those
liberal qualities, that sympathy for the
! downtrodden, and that interest in the solu-
| ton of social problems which make him
! distinguished among clergymen.
Just when DR.. Abbott finds the time to
do all that he does is predetermined, for he
! seems to become more prolific, more active,
each week. As an author and commenta-
tor he is well known. He has always been
friend of the negro and the Indian, and
every season be may be found at the Lake
Mohonk conference planning for the eleva-
ton OF the latter. He is one of the coun-
selors of the Chautauqua university, and
has always enthusiastically Endorsed that
remarkable educational movement. He is
eavoriJe preacher at Wellesley and at
Cornell His editorial utSerances on the
duty of the chuych TO the masses and the
causes of the alienation between classes
have been unusually bold. DR.. Abbott
comes Of New England ancestry. Prob
ably but few Of his admirers know that he
once studied law and wrote novels, the
latter in collaboration with his brothers,
Benjamin and Austin, who have since be-
come distinguished lawyers.
One or tine FacleSG and most trenchant
editorial writers in the country is Dr.
William c. Gray, of The Interior, Chicago.
Under his management this paper has Sc
cured large circulation among the Pres
byterians of the interior, west and north
west. DR.. Gray is a Iayman, man of
the world-not a scholastic theologian-
and he has way Of calling an ace an ace
and a spade a spade that occasionally
makes it uncomfortable for his opponents;
but there is a breeziness about his writ
ing that Is refreshing, and makes one
think of the Wisconsin forests to which he
flies each summer for rest and sport.
Prominent among the Jewish papers
published in this country stands The jew
ism Messenger, now edited by the Rev. A
S. Isaacs, who assumed editorial control
in 1878 upon the death of his father, Rev.
S. NJ Isascs. Owing to the heterogeneous
character of the Jews in America, Mr..
Isaacs' ideal has been to dwell upon points
of agreement and TO develop them into
symmetrical American body, working in
parallel lines with the leading denomina-
tons and receiving inspiration from every
modern current and tendency that in

Rev. Henry NJ Field, D. D., of The Evan
gelist lPresbytertan), published In New
York city, is the youngest Of THAI remark
able quartet Of brothers of which David
Dudley, Stephen J. and Cyrus W. are the
other members. DR.. Field is a charming,
graceful, graphic writer His many books,
which consist of letters first published in
The Evangelist, have given him celebrity
far beyond the circle of the readers of his
paper, and established his reputation as q
traveller with keen power of observation
and equally remarkable gifts as a narrator.

PROM Egypt TO Japan" is in its sixteenth
edition Dr. Fields book on Gibraltar is
conceded by English army officials TO be
the best and most graphic description of
that great fortress that has ever been writ

DR. Fields attention of late has been
given TO a study of the southern problem,
and his views have been published in The
Evangelist, and more recently in a book
recently issued, entitled Bright Skies and
Dark Shadows" which has called forth
lengthy reviews from the leading northern
and southern journals. DR. Field has
championed the cause Of revision, which
has so agitated the Presbyterian church
during the past year.
