WHEN DR.. Lyman Abbott, the
successor of Henry Ward Beecher
and the editor of the Christian
Union, asserts the high Calvinism of
the prayer-meeting of the Apostolic
College, as described in the fourth
chapter of the Acts, we do nor Won

the Bible it is found necessary to
resort to denial of its plerary in

"There was some Calvinistic theology in
this prayer meeting and it was very Cal

all things and sure" Children are
not taught to estimate as highly as
they ought that godly heritage
They are not trained as they ought
to be trained to look forward to the
possession of those spiritual bless
ings, which are theirs by inheri-
lance. They are allowed to esteem
the mere baubles of sense and sin
as more desirable and more popular
than those graces of the Spirit which
can make them more radiant in
spiritual beauty than an unfaIlen
angel.
This is not due to the evils of
infant BAPTISM" but to the want of
faith and fidelity on the part of
those who have transmitted to
them a sinful nature, but who have
also transmitted to them a spiritual
heredity.
On this subject Albert Barnes
has said: "Some of the most de-
votedly pious people of this coun-
try are the descendants of the
Huguenots who were expelled from
France. A very large proportion of
all the piety in this country has
been derived from the Pilgrims who
landed on the rock of Plymouth
and God has blessed their descend
ants in New England and elsewhere
with numerous revivals of religion.
1 am acquainted with the descend
ants of John Rogers, the first
martyr in Queen Mary's reign, of
the tenth and eleventh generation.
With a single exception, the eldest
son in the family has been a clergy
man; and there are few families
now in this land a greater proper
ton of whom are pious than that"

THE Presbytery of Cincinnati

principles of the doctrine Of the in
fallibility of the Bible:
"u) That every part of the Holy Grip
lures is so inspired by God that Ri is the
actual word of God for man. (2) THAT The
influence of the divine in breathing upon
the holy men of God who wrote ,he Scrip

moved by the Holy Ghost to speak, and
their language became the pneumatic and

THE attempt to revise the Con-
fession of Faith has a very vigorous
opponent in the Rev. Prof. Warfeld,
of Princeton. In the October Pres
byterjan and Reformed r. ieg he
renews his attack upon the Revision
report, and among other veighty
sentences, says:
Through this Revision report, whether
Intentionally or not, there throbs an assault
upon the Calvinistic doctrine of vocation,
and recommendation of the Arminian
doctrine of universal sufficient grace. Here
is where next after sovereign preterition,

gins. 1t was here that our Congregational
brethren began their detection from Cal

REV. JOHN GEORGE FACKLER

Report of the Committee appoint
ed by Lafayette Presbytery to pre-
pare a memorial.
AS another has given, at length,
to the Christian public a detailed
statement of his life, your Commit
tee would speak of Mr.. Fackler as a
preacher, presbyter and friend, in
the sphere of each of which he very
emphatically displayed the "graces
of the Spirit"
Born February 9Th, 1922; edu-
Gated in the schools common to
neighborhoods in those days, he
early in life engaged in business, in
which he was successful. Having
made profession of faith in Christ,
he very early in life was in the Sab
bath-school and prayer-meeting.
His piety and study of the English
Scriptures, not only attracted atten-
ton, but brought forth fruit for the
Master. His heart yearned for more
exclusive work for God and for sim
ners. In his thirty-frst year he of
fered himself to Presbytery and was
ordained November %, 1852.
l. AS a preacher he was persuasive.
Doctrinally a thorough Presbyterian,
responsiveness characterized all his
pulpit ministrations. Christ cruel
fed the remedy for sin, was his
constant theme This he presented
with gentleness, yet with firm
ness and zeal that were convincing
He had little to do with philosophy
and science; the Bible was his an
swer to every objection, and the So
luton of every doubt. We testify
that he was very delightful and
successful preacher. The churches
to which he preached are better be-
cause he labored with them.
2. AS a presbyter he was court
eous. Fearless in the expression of
his opinions, he was so kind, so mind
full of the feelings of others, that he
seldom came forward in any of the
debates involving the relations of
the members of the Courts one to
another. When questions were de-
oided by any Court, he always ac-
quiesced and went home to preach
the Gospel
3. AS a friend we loved him.
Some of us, associated with him on
intimate terms, knew his genial ma
ture the steadfastness of his affec-
ton; the attractiveness of his con-
versation and the piety of his heart.
He died in San Antonio, Texas,
/ January 18th, 1892.
AS a preacher, presbyter and
friend, she did what he could"
and while we mourn, we rejoice in
the hope Of the resurrection.
ResolUed, T. That this expression
Of our appreciation shall find place
in the records of Presbytery.
2. That we tender the widow Of
our beloved brother our tenderest
sympathy, and a copy of this paper
be sent to her.
g. That we say to the church at
! Springfield, that the labors of a
glorifed pastor will be sanctifed to
| their comfort.

OMAHA, NEB., Nov. 13.-Ex- District
Judge Joseph r. Clarkson, supposed to
have been drowned in Heney Creek,
Iowa, July 90, arrived in Omaha this
moraing, dressed in the garb of day
laborer. He entered the Office and pre-
sented himself before the amazed post
master, Major Garrison, who is mis-

As soon as Mrs. Clarkson had been
prepared for the meeting the judge
went to the house, where there took
place a dramatic scene Of domestic joy.
Judge Clarkson, who, when he disap-

pounds, now weighs fully $40 pounds.

New York, November 13.-John
Hoey, known the United States over
for years as the manager of Adams Ex-
press, is dying from Brght's disease.
He has been sick for some time In his
apartments at Delmonico's. Few men
have had such q remarkable career es
Mr.. Hoey. Born in Ireland in 1852 OF
poor parents, he started out in the
world to earn his own living at che age
Of II, securing passage as cabln-ooy
on vessel coming TO this city.
Ragged and penniess he wandered up
Broadway and got employment In a
newspaper Office. Three years later he
secured place as an express boy. In
1910 Adams, OF Boston, started his eX-
press company, and William Dinsmore,
Of Boston, acted as his agent in this
city, with no equipment other than
carpet bag. A man named Beecher was
Adams opposition. Hoey worked for
Beecher, bat when Adams bought out
Bcecher Hoey went to Adams. From
carrying letters and packages, Hoey was
put in charge of wagon delivery.
At night he studied In Prince street
school. From porter Hoey became
clerk. When the gold fever broke out,
and Adams 81 Co., Of the East, became
the great bankers as we'll as the com
mon carriers of the West, Hoey estab-
lished an expressed line in his own
name, running to Charleston, S. C.,
which was subsequently merged into
the reorganized Adams Express
Company at a good figure. Dur
ing the gold fever the company
controlled the express trade between
the East and West. When Hoey was
younger he found much amusement in
Billy Burton's theater, in Chambers
street. 1t was here he first met jose
phine Shaw, the English actress. An
introduction followed, and year later
the fair Josephine became Mrs. Hoey.
For several years after her marriage
Mrs. Hoey was leading lady at Wal
lacks.
During the war Hoey made over $780,
900 on stock specuations. Eight years
ago current report had it that he was
financially embarrassed. He opened
Hollywood Park in 1882, but as the
season was not successful he lost for
tune.
On May 10, 1888, Mr.. Hoey was elect
ed president of the Adams Express
Company, which position he held until
displaced on October II, 1891, by the
Directors of the company. Malfeasance
was charged, Legal suits resulted,
and the affair, # is now said, affected
him greatly so far as his health was
concerned.

WORLDS FAIR RAVES.
Western Railroad Lines Have Practically
Agreed on Prices.

CHICAGO, November 13.-Western
lines have practically agreed on
Worlds Fair rates and methods Of
handling passengers. The matter is in
the hands of committee Of seven,
which meets December 6.
The proposed plan Of western lines
is as follows: Round trip excursion
rates may be sold to Chicago and re-
turn each day, commencing April %,
1898, and continuing until October 8,
1898, inclusive, good going within one
day OF sale OF, and good returning for
thirty days.
Round trip excursion tickets sold
after Ortober shall be limited for re-
turn passage to November 5.
The rates are based approximately on
two cents a mile short line mileage in
each direction, which will be the Off
cial rate Of western passenger associa-
ton lines outside of radius OF loo
miles from Chicago.
From the territory within 100 miles
of Chicago the general basis shall be 2
7-10 cents per mile in each direction,
tickets to be sold every day from April
80 to October 30, 1898, good for return
passage within fifteen days.
Especial coach excursions" may be
run, on which tickets may be sold at a
rate of not less than II cents a mile.
No baggage except hand baggage shall
be taken on these special cheap e1cur-
sions.
Chicago shall be the terminal station
to which all tickets shall be sold, and,
except where lines own track en-
tiers the Worlds Fair grounds, passen-
gers shall be landed at the regular sta
tons.
If special excursion trains are run d.
rect to the grounds al additional charge
shall be made on each ticket sufficient
to cover switching charges.
Constant warnings shall be given the
pu bic that, unless a prolonged stay in
Chicago IS contemplated, it would be
far better to bring nothing but hand
baggage. Assuming that during the
Worlds Fair all lines will have all the
business they can carry. no other ex-
cursion rates shall be quoted.
