In his baccalaureate sermon he said of
the conflict between Science and Christian

In one age 1t was about the motions of
the heavenly bodies; in another it was the

question whether certain books of the BIZ

lously preserved, mraculously attested ac-

age in which the spiritual tendencies of
preceding generations, and the spiritual
insights of living leaders are given q pseu-

the boundaries between scholar. hip and
Christianity clearly defined; so that pro-

Scholarship and Christianity move en- diff

The Great Topics Of the Time.

The subject that more than any other now
holds the attention Of the whole civilized
world is Russia and the persecution Of the
Jews. In England there has been no re-
cent event OF greater industrial Importance
than the demonstration OF the complete sue
cess of the underground electric railway where
the air is purer than it is above ground. In
South America the subject of most moment is,
of course. the struggle for popular liberty in
Chill. 80. In Norway the great explorer,
Nansen, is making preparations to reach the
North Pole. If. In our country the question
of immigration continues to excite attention.
Since The Forana for August treats OF every
one Of these subjects it may fairly be said to
cover the most important topics Of the mouth

By deeds and works, however, are not
understood deeds and works such only as
are exhibited in an external form, but al.
so such as they are in the internal; for
every one knows that every deed and work
proceeds from the will and thought OF
man, since if it did not proceed thence, it
would be only motion, such as that Of au-
