Many who went to tho Christian church
last night were unable to gain entrance
and left in consequence Inside not only
was every seat occupied, but the aislcs
were crowded, and the platform had On it
as many as could mud room. II was q
magnificent audience, and che Rev, llo
mur 4, Wilson, seemingly inspired 10y IT,
preached a magnificent sermon. lie took
no test, but. taking his audience ls
Jury, he tried the divinity Of Christ
Mr. Wilson said he would discuss what
WAS 10 him the Rruudvt Of all themes
that had ever engaged uhe attention oil
mcm Tie solution OF that problem was
the solution of thousands Of snrhordina'e
ones.
Before the law Of grayitation was Dis
covered, said Mr. Wilson, the whole uni
verse was involved In mystery, But
when II was discovered the veil of nys-
terry, for the uoSt part, was removed,
and a thousand snrhUrdihto questions
were answered.
So the Investigation and solution of The
question which lc would discuss was also
che solution Of thousand other Te-
tinus.
