Reception on Thursday.
The Baltimore Evening News, Of SaC
urday says; The new pastor Of the Mad.
ison Square Methodist Episcopal Church
is man Of striking personality. AT
first glance one would imagine that when
looking at Rev. DR.. E. Hubbard
the new addition to the Baltimore Con-
ference Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, he saw before him Rev DR..
Henry NJ Wharton, the pastor of Bran
ton Baptist Tabernacle. They look alike
and talk alike in the same of hand style.
A clostr inspection of Dr. Hubbard re-
veals a marked difference from the iovisl
Baptist minister. DR. Wharton's eyes
are blue; DR. Hubbard's black. DR.
Wharton has a face that seems incapable
of a frown. Dr. Hubbard has a coun-
tenance that indicates the possibility to
change from a smile to a thunder clap 10
the twinkling Of an eye
With his bicycle DR.. Hubbard arrived
in Baltimore yesterday. The bicyc is
at the parsonage on Caroline street. DR..
Hubbard Is at the home Of William A.
Leitch. No. 1916 North Eden street Last
evening in the pleasant parlor Of Mr.
Leitch's home, DR.. Hubbard talked TO a
representative Of The News
II don't ride a bicycle for sensa-
ton, said DR. Hubbard 81 would not

Hill Park on one luse my bicycle Just
as doctor uses bis horse and buggy
just on business. You see, consump
ton runs In our family, and eight years
ago | found my health failing and took
TO a bicycle for health. kept on riding
and riding until found myself getting
better Look at me now. / weigh 100
pounds and am in splendid condition
will never use the bicycle for mere
pleasure, have no time for frivolities
There are too many unconverted people
about. II Il be necessary to use
bicycle for the salvation of soul will
use 1t. l will make my legs fly TO reach
man or woman who wants salvation"
Turning TO his favorite topic, be said
"Methodism is bound to conquer the
world. ! do not mean to say that
Methodisn will do all in the work Of the
worlds salvation, but do mean to say
that when the general roll Is called God
will give one of the big palms of victory
TO the followers Of John Wesley. As
she grows older, Methodism grows
stronger. From ocean to ocean her in
fuence is felt The dark lands Of
heathsndom are blooming under her
touch. Methodlsm teaches a grand doc
trlne. Both rich and poor have an equal
show In her teachings Bishop and lay
men are equal The Methodist Episcopal
Church knows no distinction among
claimants after salvation. A million
dollars and 1 cent have the same value
at the foot of the cross. This is the plea
that Methodism puts forth with such
wonderful success She has q mighty
past and her future is pregnant with
greater results. At the cross there's
room Is thu mighty battle CRY of the
Methodist Episcopal Church
Dr. Hubbard will preach tomorrow on
Woe TO Him That is Alone That Fall

81 never write ont sermon, he said.
i go into the pulpit with some notes,
and generally know what want to say.
Then let the thing 60 never give
any sermon title. let the people put
their own tag on the goods. get the
freight ready and bring 1t down as near
as possible to each soul. l don't know
what TO term a sermon. ! deliver the
sermon as God gives it to me, and then
let the people call It what they please
The name does not amount to much The
stun In il counts. Any man or woman
who listens to a sermon will know what
to call 10. Whatever their hearts dictate
their lips will frame"
Speaking of his family, he said 1--WE

family there is one wife, three children
