WITH THE MINISTER'S.
Interesting Meeting of the Con.
gregational Club.
General Booths Work Discussed-R Rabbi yoor-
sanger's Appeals -Methodists Compli-
ment Pope Leo XIII.

Darkest England and the WAY Ont" was
discussed by the Rev. w. d. Williams, d. d,
of Plymouth Church, yesterday afternoon,
Mt the weekly meeting of the Congregational
Ministers Club.
In celebrating his theme the speaker
claimed that General Booths book and his
work are inseparable. and followed up his
assertion by succinct narrative of the rise
and progress OF the Salvation Army.
According to his story it is just twenty
five years ago since General Booth and his
wife started the organization They COM
meneed without funds, friends or favor, but
SO marked has been their success since then
that the aggregate receipts last year
amounted to S3,75O,Co0 and they have
friends in every denomination.
God has blessed the Salvation Army with
untold favorS, said the speaker. The bruised
reed has become 4 strong, vigorous plant
and the smoking fax q luminous flame.
They have already established twenty-four
retreats in different parts of the world.
These are called Homes OF Rest and are
maintained in part by contributions, which
aggregated last year $4,000.
Eloquenee, the reverend gentleman said,
had not done so much for the Salvation
Army as enthusiasm. God has given to
his church in every age some men of great
power who tower like mountains in the
landscape above their fellow men. Yet the
church owes more 20 prudent personal enthu-
siasm than to their influence. This Saliva
tiun Army has taken forty per cent of its
officers from the weaker sex, who plumber
more than 100 per cent of the entire army.
l. was John Wesley who unmuzzled the lay
man ana installed the local preacher, while
To Catherine Booth belongs the distinction
of having opened vide the door for woman
10 preach the power Of God unto salvation
General Booth has written a book-a
healthy, wholesome, helpful book. About
two years ago the reading public of the An
glO-SaXOuTace were all aglOw over the advent
OF Robert Elsmere," which is now ree-
gated TO the shelves Of secondhand book
stores. Shall Darkest England suffer a
similar fate? Certainly not, for though it

influence for years to come. 1t deals with
the living issues OF burdened, thinking man.
II Is a book that stands with Christ, for
Christ ON Christ, and is radiant with light

Shall we indOrSe the book? Yes. Not on
lis literary merits, but because of its intrin-
sic value IN moving men 10 philanthropy.
As 10 the army, said DR.. Williams, in con-
GLIDING his remarks, il IS too large TO sue
