Redemption stands with sin; but as its opera
ton in human history commences after the
fall, II is not inconsistent with evolution in
deed 1t is distinctly gradual process; it con-
stitutes the history Of mankind.
THE PERSON OF CHRIST.
8. pass rapidly on to the one other first
rate problem, the person of Christ. How is it
consistent with any doctrine Of gradual devel-
opment that any one specimen of the race
should be unique? This problem also must be
considered unsolved. though it does not seem
SO far from solution as does that of the fall
OF man. Uniqueress ia not necessarily unnat-
ural Genius has not been shown to be
progressive. But the objection to uniqu:ness
disappears as soon AS it is recognized to be
fundamental. II Christ be the one man. in
vital relation with the human race. the soul
Of the universe. then it is in harmony with
these thoughts that He should be the
Goldman, not outside law, but the
final expression of the natural order;
the only begotten, standing between God and
all created things. This is the region Of phi
losophy, and in the domain of history do not
all research and all development of the moral
and spiritual nature but bear testimony to the
actual fact of this transcendent greatness?
There are many who decline to recognize His
divine majesty, but do not the best and wisest
OF them tell us tc look for another? 1t is not
only that the human spirit acknowledges Him
as its chief SO far, but that it Is satisfied and
looks no further within the range of human
evolution.
6. must stop, though there are other tempt
ing topics The evolutionary theory gives
boundless scope 20 faith and hope. 1t does
not yet appear what we shall be. The race Of
men may lose its physical basis by slow decline
OF heat or, rs the Bible seems to predict, by
catastrophe, but its spiritual history would not
therefore come to an end. The last things, like
the first, are very dimly revealed to US;
scientific evolution also is silent as to
its own beginning and end. A little way in
each direction We are able to see our prospect

goodness displayed in stronger moral persons

have throughout been selected and trained
no doubt in order that they may teach
the rest. Evolution throws tho whole history
into a natural perspective, and once frankly
accepted as the revealed method Of divine edu-
difficult, to us easy. OF course the earlier
morality was defective. So is our own.
The ethics of the time Of Joshua were not
further removed from our own than ours are
from what will appear when Christianity has
had few more centuries to run. But will any
evolutionary theory stand with the facts of sin
and redemption? Are not these at least hostile
to all ideas of growth?
THE PROBLEM OF EVIL
Well, the fall admit, does not readily fall
in with any evolutionary scheme. And yet the
biblical view is that the religious education of
man began instantly after the fall and that
redemption in the decree Of God preceded the
actual creation. The fall, therefore. has
place in a divine order, and though there is no
satisfactory theory of sin, it is some
it has its place in the production of virtue.
The problem of evil is confessedly insoluble
on any theory; but do not see that evolution
makes it more hopeless. The account Of the
fall postulate5 that man was made up
right. The fall represents the moment
which, on the evolutionary view. must
have come when his moral consciousness awoke
to the sense Of guilt. The circumstances,
possibly the whole story, may be parabolic;
the actual fact Of the first guilt must have oc-
Cured; the question is whether the account in
Genesis demanded lofty as opposed to
merely innocent moral state in the first pair;
if it does. it must, think be admitted that
Revelation on this point is only partial and
leaves much to be explained: and at all events

not. Let the years of uninterrupted

cured and happy men and women,
place DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

"A. Noodle, whose examination on
the charge of grand lacenY in the
second degree took place yesterday,
was discharged. The court held that
the case was one that should have
been tried in a civil action. The
horse was taken in daylight and on
the advice of the defendants attorney
and was taken in compensation for
work done, the defendant claiming
Fthat he was to receive the horse in
part pay, but this the complaining
witness denies.
Now that the election is over, the
thing that is attracting public atten-
tion is the coming appointments on
the Board of Public Works and the
police force. The reduction in the
salary of the police has not lessened
the crop of aspirants, and already sew
eral long petitions are ready for pre-
sentation to Mr.. Willard. The bust
ness men are put in difficult position
when asked to sign petitions Of several
different candidates for the same office
and very frequently their names are
attached to all of them. As a general
thing, petitions have considerable
weight, but such can hardly be the
case in filling the responsible positions
on the police force, when the peculiar
qualifications of the individual appli-
cants should only be taken into con-
sideration. Each candidate should
stand on his own merits, as petition
mile long cannot warrant good
policeman in the hour of need, out OF
poor material.
