REVISION OF FAITH.

The New York Presbytery Committee'a
Recommendation in the Matter.
New YORK, Nov. 9.-The Presbyterian
committee, considering the proposed
revision of the confession of faith, re-
ported today. Briefly the report APP
proves of all the general assembly COM
mittee's work. and urges it to go forward
along the same line. The report will be
considered next week. The report reads,
in part, as follows: "Your committee
carefully examined the proposed revis-
ion chapter by chapter and section by
section, and recognize the wisdom, pru-
dence and skill with which the general
assembly committee labored upon it..
We are of the opinion that it shows very
clearly the possibility of our revising
our confession OF faith without our inn
pairing in the least our system of doc
trine, but rather in such way as to
support and defend it, by making it
palmer, stronger. and more scriptural /;
and that such revision would not hinder,
but advance and prosper the formation
OF new, short and simple creed, ac-
cording to the desire expressed by the
presbytery OF New York two years ago.
"We felt it is important to have re-
revision which shall really revise. The
great object OF this wide and deep move
ment in the church should be as fully as
possible secured. Itseems to us the OBJ
jects are two: First, frank, explicit
and unhesitatlng declaration of the liv-
ing faith of the church, in Gods loving
and true offer OF salvation to all men,
through Christ, by His word and spirit;
second, clearing our confession of faith
from the possibility of fatalistic misinter-
probation.
Hence, these among other recon-
mendations of changes are made: All
reference to sovereign preterition, eternal
any other doctrine of non-election,
should be omitted. A substi-
stue for section should be
written to declare, in SUBJ
stance, that the doctrine of Gods
sovereign election is to be received and
interpreted in harmony with the truth !;
that He is not willing that any should
perish, ,but that all should come to re-
pentance; that He has given his Son to
be Precipitation for the sins of the whole
world, and that wosoever cometh unto
Him shall in no wiee be cast out; who
soeyer will not come shall perish"
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 9.--The In
dianapolis presbytery today voted in
favor of such a revision of the confession
of faith as shall tend to free the confes-
sion from Misunderstanding and to
broaden and enrich it in fuller state
ment of the great central ideas of the
gospel of Jesus Christ.

TIME LOCKED UP.
Those Wonderful Court House Clocks
Again in Trouble.

Those Wonderful Court House Clocks
Again in Trouble.
Not clock in the court house gave a
tick after 9:15 yesterday morning, and
Waterburys were frequently consulted.
The clocks in the court house are of the
electric species and their advantages
and convenience were descanted upon at
length before they were put in. But
what disappointment these electric
time machines have proved.
Ry reasons of tangled wires, cross cur
rents and varions other diseases, they
have stopped time after time. They
are OF the same nature as balkv horse
-one can never depend upon them.
Electricians have worked day after day
endeavoring to remove the cause OF the
difficulty, but the improvement has
been temporary--very temporary.
Yesterday the clocks stopped again as
stated above. The reason therefor was
that the board of supervisors refused to
accept them until they did their work
in q satisfactory manner. They told the
contractor some time ago that no money
would be forthcoming until those electric
tickers got hustle on themselves and
hammered out time correctly. They ex-
pected too much and the man in charge
of the lightning machine, which is To-
Gated somewhere in the big building,
busted connection or something yes
terday morning, locked up the room con-
tanning the motive power, put the key
in his pocket, and said to the supervis-
ors: "No money, no time"
IL There the matter rests, and the
chances are that the hands on the dials
of those wonderful electric clocks will
remain stationary for some time to
come.

A One Sided Fight.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. ed German,
of Columbus, and formerly OF Buffalo,
and Tommy Conner, of Cincinnati, light
weights, fought q fash fight tonight
for $1,000 side and the gate receipts.
John Murphy, Of Cincinnati, was ref
cree. German forced the fighting from
the start and landed heavily on Conner.
1t was apparent from the first that
Conner was no match for German. In
the second round Conner was knocked
and forced down twice, and in the third
and last, German made short work OF
his man, knocking him down twice.
Conner failed to come to time, and the
fight was given to German. Conner had
been drinking, and was in poor condi-
ton.

Peters Latest Challenge.

CHICAGO, Nov. Con behalf Of Peter
jackson, Parson Davies has extended to
Frank Slavin, challenge to a finish
fight, Queensberry rules, for purse of
$4,000, which Jackson understands the
California Athletic club will put up.
Jackson offers to further wager Slavin
$500 that Slavin does not defeat him.
The contest is to take place three or
four months from the signing of articles.
Jackson says he makes this offer now
because Sullivan refused to consider any
offer until the expiration of his theat-
rical contract, next June, and that the
time for tiaining would make it nearly
a year before John L. could fight. Peter
further objects to Slavin's claim to be
the heavyweight champion of Aus
tralia, saying he still holds that title
against all corners.

WORLD OF9SPoRT.
Mckinney to Go Against the Four Year
Old Stallion Record.


Mckinney now occupies stall at the
Stockton track. This will be news to
great many; but the matter was kept
very secret, as Durfee went up in the
expectation of making a match with
either Wanda, Silas Skinner or Frank
M. He is boarding the lion in his own
den, so to speak. Frank M. is at the
Stockton track, and as Durfee is armed
with bills to the extent of $4,000, there
is every reason to believe that match
race will be the outcome il any of the
owners of the above mentioned horses
have the temerity to make the match.
Mckinney can beat any one of them in
single handed match, to a certainty.
The day before he left for the north he
was worked out two miles. The first
mile was made in 2:l5L and the second
in 2:l41s. This was kept very secret
and was held back from the public, as it
was thought that it would be
the means of preventing Dulfee
from making. a match. He has
been given fair chance, but it
is dollars to dimes that no one will dare
match Mckinney. In that event, Nc
Kinney will be sent for record over
the kite-shaped track either today or
tomorrow. If the day is favorable and
Mckinney is as good horse as be was
last week. the 4-year-old stallion rec
ord will be reduced. Mckinney is very
likely to trot in 2:11lI. This Is no idle
opinion, but one based on certain infor-
nation and study OF the difference be-
tween kite-shaped and an elliptical
track in regard to speed. If Durfee is
successful in bis initial effort he will
then especially prepare Mckinney for a
final effort against the soythe bearer.
A carload OF horses arrived here yes
terday from Denver. They come here
to winter. Knapsack Mccarthy is ex-
pected here in the course OF a few weeks
with string, and Sam Cation has al
ready engaged quarters. Mccarthy and
Cation are two of the most prominent
drivers in the United States. 1t begins
to look as if every stall at the track will
be occupied this winter. Los Angeles is
recognized as the best place in the
United States to winter horses.
