DIR. BURRELL'S SERMON.
He Discourses on "The Inscription
on the Cross"

At Westminster church last evening,
Rev. ID. j. Burrell preached on 1.-The
Inscription on the Cross" speaking
from the text, And Pilot wrote a title
and put it on the cross, John xix, 49,"
The speaker began his discourse with a
description of the leading of Christ to
Calvary. There they nailed him to the
cross. and over his head placed a tablet
with these words, Jesus, Of Nazareth,
the king of the JeWs.'' Continuing, he
said:
First, this was a tltulum. The city
of Jerusalem was full of strangers at
the great festival, who needed to be in
formed who this malefactor was. The
placard fastened above his head would
advise them that he was the NaZarene
carpenter. But to us, looking back from
this distance, the name Jesus character
ICES him as q savior, and his connection
with the Infamous town of Nazareth
makes him a leader and eXemplar for all
such as would triumph Over adverse cir
cumstanceS in the struggle of al ear
nest life.
Second, this inscription was an &C
cusation. 1t was intended to specify
his crime. The crime for which Jesus
died was His claiming to be Messiah,
the King of the Jews He made that
claim not once, but over and over again
in most explicit terms. Here is our di-
lemma. The claim of Jesus was either
true or false. If false, Voltaire was
right when he cried out against Him,
'EcraSeZ PInfamep and we cannot too
vigorously denounce an impoStor such
as He. But, if true, our reasonable
service is to fall into line with His peo-
pie and devote our lives to Him.
| SkUNIs-l 4I;o-~ .z
ton. 1t was indeed intended to be an
Indictment, but there was a strange
omission. The Jews noticed it, and
hurried off to PLATE saying, Write not
The King of the Jews but He said, |
am King of the Jews;' but Plate was
in no mood to humor them. What !
have written said he, Il have written
And there it remained, the statement of
a mighty truth, the truth of all truths
to a sinner in quest of eternal life, to
wit, Jesus is the veritable Christ OF
Godr'
Fourth, l. was a manifesto, a cha]
lenge, the gauge of battle thrown down
by Prince Emmanuel at the gates OF
hell. Come forth and meet me, all ye
powers OF darkness, for to-day, on my
cross, l purpose to conquer death by
death, and, bearing the sins of many, tt
lead them unto everlasting life!' Ever
as we look upon 1t, the writing changes
and it becomes Il catalogue OF sinS-mN
sins, your sins; and we remember how
1t was said He hath blotted out the
handwriting of ordinances that wa.
against US and hath taken it away, nail
ing it TO His cross; and having spoiled
municipalities and powers, He hath made
a show of them openly, ~triumphing il
His DEATH
Fifth, it stands as a glorious proph
ecy Of the final triumph of Jesus. Thi
tablet, written in the three language
which embraced the world of thos,
days, is an assurance that His kingdom
shall be an universal kingdom, and tia
all nations shall yet bow before Him a
King of the whole Israel of God"

WHO WAS KILLED =?
Tale of a Man Crushed by an Elec-
trio Car.

Tale of a Man Crushed by an EIec-
trio Car.
"Say, d'yo know dar was a man killed
down hyar jess now?"
The questioner was a colored mar en-.
ployed in Gavin's livery stable, on First
venue south. AS he excitedly asked
that question of the loungers around the
barn yesterday afternoon, his eyes pro-
truded and rolled wildly. Nobody had
heard of the death, and his story was
diScredited by those who heard him.
Yes, the mar was killed. he maintained.
Why, didn't be see 1t? OF course, he
did. Then he began a graphic descrip-
ton of how it all occurred.
This man who was killed was crossing
Washington avenue. at Fourth avenue
south. An electric car came along and
struck him, knocking HIM down. The
man "came up smiling" to his hands
and knees and attempted 10 crawl out
OF the way. That car, like an avenging
fate, pursued him. pushed him down
and finished the job by running over
him and crushing the life out of him.
That story was told in the afternoon to
Coroner Byrnes, who happened into the
stable.
A GLOBE reporter saw the colored
man a short time afterward. His YER
sion of the accident had been revised.
No, he didn't see the man killed. He
didn't even see the man after he was
killed. But he had seen a man who had
seen it all. The dead man had been
carried into a Washington avenue drug
store. His name was unknown to
the colored man. He had heard,
however, that it was a clerk in the
First National bank who was killed.
Diligent inquiry at every drug store on
Washington avenue, among the police
and at the coroner's Office failed to
elicit one scrap of information about
a mar being killed or even hurt.
Now, who was killed? Who was
hurt?
And that colored man was not drunk
either.

SHAME.
Body of a Dead Infant Found
Floating i'll the River.

Coroner Byrnes was called to South
Minneapolis yesterday to view the dead
body Of a baby. Some boys found it
floating in the river. The boys were
playing under the Franklin avenue
bridge. When they first saw the dead
child floating in the river they thought
it was a dog. AS it came
closer they saw the form of
a baby. They hauled it out
on the bank and the was mott
fed a few minutes later. The body is
that of a newly-born babe, a girl.
Whether it came into the world alive or
dead will be determined by a post-mor-
ten examination.
1t had been in the water but a few
hours. The child was probably thrown
into the water above the falls, as the
body bore marks of having pounded
against the rocks. Whoever thus dis
posed of 1t did it to hide wrongdoing.

Trains.
The fight in the council yer the rails
ing of the ~peddlers' license has ended.
ghe peddlerS have been beaten. While
The battle lasted the public heard a good
Zeal about this matter. Perhaps the
public is tired. But the Northwest
Trade. the recognized organ of the
grocerS, has made some assertions
pnent this fight which should not, in
Justice, be allowedto go uncontradicted.
After devoting a column of its preSum-
ably valuable space to explaining how
The grOcerS were Disseminated against
under the city ordinance. especially
since grOcerS can be prosecuted for sell
Ing short weight and measure, the
Northwest Trade sums up the motives
which actuated the grOcers III petition
ing for an increase in the license, thus:
That the peddlers, /, should pay
something like their share Of taxation
FOR the privileges they enjoy; ., they
light to peddle so conspicuOuSly as 10
be easily identified in case Of fraud on
their part: 3, they should be held to
greater accountability as to the sanitary
condition Of the foods they offer for
,ale.
Now, as to the first reason: No NUM-
.ipality has the right to attempt to
tqualiZe trade conditions by taxation.
=" hat is a settled principle of law. On
HAT point this question will probably
70 to the courts. The grocers have
1enied that they wanted to tax the ped
dlers-at least their attorney denied it
for them. Their organ admits that tax
alton was the inspiring idea of the
movement for increasing the license.
AS to the second reason: How will
raising the license compel the peddler
10 exhibit the insignia of his right? Had
an amendment providing for that re-
5trictiOn been proposed, no one would
have said aught against it.. Prevention
Of fraud Is most proper.
AS to the third reason: VIII raising
the license force the peddler to sell bet
ter food? Not a Bit of it. Nothing but
proper inspection by the health depart
ment will do that. Raising the license
will, on the other hand, induce the ped
der to sell more worthless food, that he
may make more money and meet the in
creased expenditure.
Had the grOcers been cOntented with
amendments covering those points, their
ECllOI dllQ lldI VI lIlC COuiiCll WOUlQ
have been commended. 1t is because
they went to the noint of expressing a
weaker class that they were condemned.
AS Il matter or TACT, me grocerS want to
drive the peddlers out of business ell
lirely. They acknowledge it among
themselves and in private conversation.
They are ashamed to admit it in public.
