SEVERE TRUTHS.
Their Neglect by the Clergy OF the
Present DaV.

At the meeting OF the Presbyterian Min
isterial Union yesterday Rev. r. Vaughn
Griffith, pastor of the Welsh Presbyterian
Church, read a paper on ''The Complete
and Unmutilated Idea of God" He be-
gan by asking the question. is it not true
that there is a tendency in these days. es-
pecially in some pulpits, to neglect, more
or less, the seveTer aspects of divine
truth? If this is so. what is the cause of
it ?" 1t may be that it is partly because Of
a too great desire for less reality and too
much of desire to please and entertain
the peOple-a one-sided view OF tie nature
of the present dspensatiou, and too much
stress laid upon the fact that the times
have changed. Many of the people q these
days 90 to the house Of God on the Sab
bath just as they go to the theater-to be
entertained instead of instructed and
benefited-and the inducement is strong
to crafty them by preaching so as to
please and OF offend them. So there is a
temptation to present the more pleasant
truths and keep the unwelcome ones in the
background. But il we hope to win souls
to Christ we must not fail to declare the
whole coun sci OF God. There is pleasure
in talking about his goodness and mercy
and love. but back OF these IS his right
eOusness, and justice and hatred of sin.
which are as important as the others, and
without presenting which preaching will.
in great measure. be in vain. Men are so
hardened In sin that unless their con-
sciences are alarmed by being warned Of
the wrath of God they will not repent and
seek his forgiveness.
The discussion of the subject by those
present showed general agreement with
the views expressed in the paper. though 1t
was thought that tenderness and love
should govern in the preaching of the more
severe truths. as well as those of milder
character.
Next Monday Rev. Mr.. Meeker will read

a competent observer. TO the island. and the
report OF his observations has Just been printed
In "Annaies de Geographic" together with
maps and pictures. This article ia based upon
the material supplied by his report.
Another observer also was on the ground.
Mr.. W. G. Forster. director OF the Eastern Tele-
granh COMPANY at Iante. has made n long
study OF the earthquake phenomena In that
region. He hos In his house M excellent
seismograrh. which records the least shocks.
The submarine cables connecting Zante with
tho mainland have also enabled him at times
to determine with much precision the direc-
ton and apparent centres OF these phenomena.
His observations were OF much value to Mr..
Ardaillon.
At 1894 A. NJ. on Jan. 81 nm earthquake
shock threw to the ground a great part OF tho
houses in the country district and many Of
those In the city. The movement was I'M
dulatory. and the duration OF the seismic wave
was about twelve seconds. A series Of vibra-
lions increasing in force anI raridity had pre-.
ceded the principal shock. and another series.
OF decreasing violence. followe'! 1t. The force
OF the principal shock was not great compared
with many earthquakes. This statement may
seem strange in view OF the damage done. for
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1893-05-14

about 1000 Of the 10000 buildings on the
sland were either entirely DESTROYED or IN
fitted for occupancy. The loss amounted to
over S4O0.O 600. and many might infer that the
shock ~equallsd In violence those from which
Znnte suffered In 1920 and 1910. This. how
ever. WAS not the case.
The great damage was due not to the vIo-
lence Of the shock but to two significant facts.
In the first place most OF the houses wero
very poorly built. The damage to we'll built
houses was confined to falling plaster and
| cornices and the breakaGe OF some furnish
ings. But most houses were built OF q moor
quality OF cnlcareoust ufn that crumbles easily.
and the mortar between the layers wns hardly
better than mud. Upon these fragile walls
heavy roofs were placed. and 1t was certain
that upon the occurrence OF = shock OF consid-
cradle intensity the structures would fall.
The other reason that made the destruction
great was that most OF the ruined buildings
stood upon light. easily disturbed ground.
where the seismic wavo was felt In oil its in
%tsnsity. and there was no obs,nele t" stpn It.
In Japan tho Disturbance originated In some
rock ri'bcd hills; where very little damage

The island OF Zante is in tho Mediterranean.
about fifteen to twenty miles west OF the Pei
oponnesus coast. Its inhabitants raise on
their rich alluvial plain largo quantities Of
olives. grapes. and Znnte c,irrants. The chief
interest which Znnte's mistortunes has for us
is not tho story OF destruction. but the studies
that have bcen made to ascertain tho causes
OF these subterrancan commissions. and to. add
to our knowledge OF earthquake phenomena.

The same tension and compression which
produced many Of the mountain. ranges Is
here in action. As the interior OF the earth
cools 1t contracts and tends to leave tho outer
crust behind. The weight OF this outer crust:

1t IL therefore compelled to wrinkle. Thus

The earth trsmors and shocks that have
been felt ut Iante almost necessarily since
August last AMI ut intervals for many years
past seem to lie manifestations Of this activity
at the bottom OF tho neighhorinE water. Thi!

nature rather to the region Of tha Alps or the
Apenninos than to that Of tho Peloponnesus or
