A the Fourth street NJ. z. Church.

Rev. G.. w. Gray. OF Chicago, preach
ed a strong sermon In the Fourth Street
NJ t. Church last evening. The theme
was Bearing the Cross, aad the large
congregation, considering the weather,
went away highly pleased. a feature
OF the discourse was the apt illustra-
tion. The leading thought Of the
sermon was that following Chris
tlaalty is following person
not q principle. Rev. Gray said If he
knew the weakness Of some Of those
before him he would draw lis iiluStra-
tions from them. As he knew so few,
he drew two strong and original Illus
tratiOnS, one from business and the
other social circles, 20 make palmer bis
leading thought. The proposition OF
the first example was, whether IL was
right or not for q man TO 20 on the
Chicago Board OF Trade amid its gamb-
ling, etc. Rev. Cray did not deny or
affirm the right, but gave an example,
thus: Suppose 10 became known that
Christ was 20 appear in Chicago tO-mOr-
lSV.- Then tO-mOrrow's papers would
zinc out and say, the FIRST thing Christ
did'was TO go onto the Board Of Trade
anu sNtEMldNE az " A4Neb- wv % kNA 'NA
in this broad land would believe il was
Christ"
As another example. the minister
spoke OF the social problem, the dance.
He would not say IL was right or
wrong. but illustrated teliingly: Sup
pose that o ball and revival were in
progress IN Wheeling on the same night,
and that night the one on which Christ
was to visit this city. II, when Christ
should arrive, he would visit the ball
and not the revival, there is not a soul
in this city that would believe it was
Christ"
Human environment was spoken OF,
and the statement made that every one
is being controlled by some dominant
idea. Jay GOulGs dominant idea was
spoken o. as being greed for wealth. II
was stated that he would sacrifice priu-
ciple, honor and home comforts Tor
wealth. 1t was stated, In turn, that
with mary pleasure, etc, was the pre-
vaillng idea which swayed their lives.
The sermon ended in logical summing
I'D OF the discourse.

THE FIRST LECTURE
OF rsS LESTES COURSE GIVEN BY RI REV.
BISHOP KANE.
She Fas. and Temptation O: Chris. in The Desert
Tte Discourse a. ST. Matthew's and The
Fourth Street n. Z. Churches
Last Evening.

Last evening Bishop Kain commenced
a course Of Lenten Instructions on the
Fas, aud Temptation Of Christ in the
Desert. Thors was large congrega-
tlsa present and much interest was
shown.
"Chrlss's fasting" he said, was an
object lessen which His disciples should
study and reduce to practice. Those
who repudiate the Church'S teaching in
this matter not only refuse to initiate
the Blessed Saviour, whose example is
IN the nature Of precept, but they
totally ignore the plaiuest Scriptural
duties. III must indeed be accompanied
with proper interior dispositions, other
wise il will justly fan under the con-
domination uttered against the hypO-
critical PhariSees.
The Bishop then argued that the
practice OF fasting was most efiica-
ciouS means Of promoting a truly peni-
tential spirit, and consequent purity OF
heart. lie quoted at length from Holy
Scripture 10 prove that the indulgence
OF the bodily appetite was one OF the
chief indictments 10 rebellion against
Gods holy law. and that every restraint
upon this, our SenSuality, was not only a
preventive Of sin, but also powerful
aid in the cultivation OF Christian viz
tues. Nay, he laid il down as On axiom
I'm the spirltua. life, tina, prOGreSs is i'm
possible without notifying the exterior
as we'll as the enterior senses, and that
consequently all who have attained 20 a
high degree OF Christian perfection
have practiced bodily notifications,
amongst which fasting has always
been reputed most eliciOus.
In conclusion the Bishop gave sew
eral practical rules for the guidance Of
those who, in obedience TO Scripture
teaching aud in imitation Of Christ,
are convinced Of the obligation Of fast
ing and DESTROYS Of sharing In it's Durl-
flying and sanctiiyiug efficacy.

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.

1t is stated that President Cleve-
land is to call a special session OF
congress about the middle Of Sep
TENDER to deal with the financial
situation, which he regards as the
only real menace to the country.
The record OF the failures through
out the country for the past three
weeks has been a remarkable one,
and the situation may be set down
as rather disheartening, il not pam
icky. Money is close, collections are
slow, and altogether there is not a
strong feeling in financial circles.
The weekly trade reviews, which
have given the matter careful atten-
ton, report that the prospect is
rather more discouraging than it
was a week ago, when slight signs
of improvement were discernible.
Several of the failures more recently
reported are important ones, nota-
bly, that of large bank at Milwau-
kee; there have been still further
large drafts on the gold reserve for
export purposes, and the reserve in
the treasury has been drawn down
to $90,O00,O0O. Manufacturing
centers are especially feeling the
stringency of the market, and there
is lack of confidence for the future.
These conditions are not pleasing,
and if the administration has it
within its power to relieve the stu
alton in any degree, the sooner &C.
ton is taken the better. In the
meantime caution on the part of the
public and prudence along business
lines generally will help matters
wonderfully.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1893-06-08

has happened, from the fact that
large numbers of people scattered all
through New England have placed
their money, and, in many instances,
all that they could spare, in that
company, and believe its failure to
be Minneapolis failure.
The failure of that company oc-
casioned no great surprise to those
of us who knew something of its
business methods. In fact, it has
not for several years enjoyed the
full confidence of the business public
here. Few of US have felt like recon-
mending our friends to invest in it..
Although located here, the company
has for many years almost entirely
operated in other parts of the coun-
try. Its business has not been, ex-
cept in limited degree, Minneapolis
business, and, except for the fact OF
its location, it is not and has not
been Minneapolis institution. The
paper it has foated in the East has
not been Minneapolis paper, al
though many of the purchasers OF
that paper have supposed it was
Minneapolis paper. Since its failure
at least one bank here has received
notes and lists of notes, aggregating
at least forty in number, with re-
quests that the makers be looked up
to see if they were good. Upon in
vestigation it was found that, with
out exception, these notes were made
by parties in Montana, New Mexico
and Texas. l am credibly informed
that several other banks and many
attorneys have received similar lists
OF notes for the same purpose aud
with the same result.
1t is but fair to the business men
of this city to say that Min
neapolis has not failed, and no
financial institution here or else
where has been compelled to go into
insolvency, or has seriously suffered,
on account of any failures of Mime
apolis men. Owing to the financial
stringency all the large borrowers of
Eastern money here are having to
pay their notes as they mature, and
with few exceptions, they are paying
them.
Only two banks here, and those
are small ones, have closed their
doors, and it is expected that they
will both resume in a short time.
Taking everything together, Min
neapols has stood the strain re-
markedly well and she has not ex-
hausted her resources yet. We have
greater confidence in our resources
than ever before, and unless the flu
ture has much harder things in store
for US than are now anticipated, we
expect this city to come out of the
present crisis in good shape and en-
titled to even greater confidence
than she has heretofore enjoyed.
Truly yours,
HAZEN M. PARKER.
