Church of the Messiah. .

"A Glimpse at the Religious World Through Yale Graduation Exercises" was the subject of an extremely interesting and thoughtful discourse preached yesterday morning by Rev. L. H. Squires in the Church of the Messiah.
 "Those exercises at Yale," said the speaker, "were revelation of the nature and tendency of modern religious thought All that was said met with my hearty ap- probation. There is new theology-that is, it is new to many-but it is identical with the position taken by this church and many others throughout tho land. am glad to see that the young ministers of the gospel are starting out on their life mis- sion with so high an ideal of true Christi anity, that they all seemed to feel that the letter was of small importance in com parison with the spirit, which is love, and that the highest type of Christian man is he who labors for the betterment of the race" The speaker alluded to a type of Christians who look 'tabove" all the misery and wretchedness of their surroundings and dream of the "good time in the sweet by and by." But better are they who work faithfully and diligently here and now for the suffering children of earth and do what they can to extend Christ's kingdom among men.
 Among those who attended the services yesterday morning were number of rep of Yale, who manifested deep interest in the discourse.
