formation was preparation for
Christ's entry into our world; and today
there are many who believe that . mill
lenium is about to dawn.
Mr.. Garrett preached that these theories
were due to q misunderstanding Of the
meaning of Christ's words. He had
spoken Of spiritual coming rather than
q physical coming, and as matter Of fact
His spirit had been constantly coming to
the world and finding it. History is full
of the coming of Christ. He came when
the temple was destroyed and the old
theocracy fell; when st. Augustine carried
the gospel into Britain; when st. Boniface
started on his mission to Germany; when
the revival OF learning took place and the
darkness of the middle ages began to fee
away; and when the Magma Charta
was drawn. He came with the
Reformation, and also with the
great missionary efforts of this century.
Today in the theological movement pre-
vading all churches and turning men for
ecclesiastical traditions from the super
stitions of men and from the teachings of
Cranmer, Calvin, Luther and others to
the pure teachings of Jesus himself: there
is a second coming of Christ Christ also
comes to the individual in the crisis of
his life; in childhood, youth and age, at
the turning point in mems careers, with
their joys or their sorrows He comes.
The hour when the man casts off the old
life and resolves to lead q new and better
one is in a deep sense an advent.
Last night Mr.. Garrett preached the first
of course of sermons on "The Battle of
Lite" While these sermons are specially
for men, all others are cordially invited to
attend.
The women of the church will hold their
Christmas bazaar tomorrow afternoon and

A GROCERY BURNED.
Lake Union Store Quilted by a
Midnight Blaze.
CAUSE OF THE FIRE IS UNKNOWN.
Loud Explosion Heard Before the
Flames Broke Out-Loss About
$1,000, Fully Insured.

A blaze, supposed to have been caused
ny spontaneous combustion, occurred at
IL 30 O'Clock last night In the grocery store
of Pratt & Mahon, at 514 Moltke street,
near Lake Union.
The damage is supposed to be about
$1,000 The store contained $500 worth
of groceries and carried an insurance in
three companies, amounting to s., 100.
No one knows exactly how the fire oc-
Cured. There was no one in the store at
the time of the fire, and the only light
was an electric lamp suspended from the
ceiling. At II 80 O'Clock Policeman w.
M. Reed, who was standing in a bakery
about block away, heard loud ex-
plosion, and rushing out he saw flames
issuing from the front of the store. He
rang in a fire alarm from box No. 81, and
the department was soon on the scene and
had the fire under control. The butcher
shop of Mccarthy & McKeaver, next door,
was damaged about SIS by water.

A PROHIBITION SPEECH.
John Lloyd Thomas at the First Metho.
dist Protestant Church.

John Lloyd Thomas at the First Metho-
dist Protestant Church.
John Lloyd Thomas, secretary of the
National Prohibition committee, spoke to
large audience last night at the Metho-
dist Protestant church, Third and Union
streets. He made an earnest plea for pro-
hibition.
The great festival of Thanksgiving, he
said, had just passed, but there were $780,
600 men who did not get to eat turkey
dinner on that day. Men could not be
elected without the saloon elements help.
The boys were growing up without pro-
lection and poverty was increasing. He
thought the day was not far off when the
Prohibition party would be in power and
the saloons would be closed.
Those who depended upon the pub
lished announcements and expected to at
tend a gospel temperance meeting, were
disappointed, for the meeting was out
and out third party in its tone.
Mr.. Thomas speaks this evening on the
same subject at the old Congregational
church, on Second street, near Seneca.
