The Sentinel's Alarm.

Midnight The three sentinels softly enter

Jars are only from foot and half TO two
feet high, yet they are capable Of holding
each several million fish eggs. When tho
eggs are Matched. which occurs in few days'
time, tho young fsh are drawn of into an
other bottle by aid OF syphon. Then, being
placed in large cans capable of holding about
fifteen gallons Of water. they are shipped into
distant parts of the country. For this pur-
pose a special car belonging to the commits
sion is used.
The object Of this service is to breed fish in
order to supply some of the waste from those
caught and Also TO stock rivers with new
varieties. For instance. in some rivers salmon
have never been seen. Now, those little fishes
are brought and placed by the commission
in these rivers and in few years the water
gives bountiful supply Of them. Thus diff
ferent varieties are carried TO all parts of the
country and the rivers Of the different States
kept from becoming depopulated
The eggs Matched in the building are drawn
from the fishes caught in the Potomac and
afterwards released. Thus the fish is still
suitable for food, and the eggs. which would
otherwise be destroyed, are used in multiply
ing the fish supply Of the world.-Philadel-

A Start in tho Right Quarter.

A branch of the Christian Social Union has
been organized in New York. The original
English society is at the University OF Oxford
and its president IS DR.. WestcOtt, the bishop
of Durham It's organ is the Economic Re
view, and it is intended 10 do for economic
and social education what the university ex-
tension movement is now doing for the diiiu-
sion of the higher education. 1t Is started in
this country in connection with the Episcopal
Church. but there Is no reason why similar
societies should not be formed IN otner re-
lpiOus ORGANIZATIONS. The connection WITH
the English union makes this denominatiOnal
relation in some respects necessary but good
working branches can be formed anywhere.
and no patent for the idea has been applied
for. The main thing IS the idea and us Teall-
cation in practical form. A great deal has
heen said about Christian socialism. IL
il held that the Church ought 10 give
tone and character 20 industrial society;
that n ought to have enough power
10 compel right relations between capital and
labor that 4 ought to restrain both parties
from proving upon each other, and that until
tbis sort of influence 10 eXerted the Christian
Church has not fulfilled its mission in modern
society. This Christian Social Union is in
tended TO make such beginning among
Christian people in each denomination that
there shall be large number of men and
women who are prepared rs educated experts
In teach Others and influence opinion. This
is the beginning of right method. We have
often called attention TO the way in which
the students in our theological seminaries are
being instructed in economic and social ques-
tions. and in this city we have a small organl-
cation that stands for Christian socialism.
But this new society is for the people as we'll
as for the clergy. IL represents a popular
movement for the training OF Christians TO
take their proper place in all the cuirentmcye-
ments of our time. and for exerting an Influence

Snirifual Inflnence

Christianity is pre-eminently spiritual re-
ligion. 1t is a dispensation of spiritual truth.
Il originated in the life and doctrine of q
spiritual teacher Christ came on a spiritual
mission TO do spiritual work to establish a
spiritual kingdom and to bring to man spirit
ual deliverance Christ did not come 60 re-
veal to man the truths Of physics. chemistry,
geology, physiology or mental philosophy but
the fatherhood of God. the brotherhood of
man. the divine law of love and salvation by
overcoming evil with good. This is q reyela-
ton of spiritual truth, the proclamation ola
spiritual law, and the building up
in human hearts and human
homes of spiritual kingdom. The
gospel Is the dispensatlon of the spirit. The
knowledge Of salvation comes by the witness
of the spirit. The experimental knowledge of
God is spiritual life. The elements and
graces Of Christian character are the fruits of
the spirit. The consultations of religion are
spiritual consultations The comforter that
Christ has sent into the world is the divine
spirit Of truth; the divine seal that God places
on his people is the work Of this spirit.-The
