the oldand new dispensations, empha-
sized by the Resurrection of Christ and
the day OF Pentecost. The Anglo-Amer-
lean conception OF the Sabbath and it's
observance is the best. Let US respect
it. At the close OF the discourse Lily
Runals recited "Rock OF Ages"
Y. NJ. 6. A.
At 4 p. m. a large audience OF men re-
NAMED to the Y. M. G. A. meeting con-
Quoted by Secretary Wight. DR.. Parks
led IN prayer, the band furnished some
delightful music and DR.. Hindley deliv-
cred quite a lengthy address. The inter
esting part was the 'Question Box"
answers OF Joseph Cook, which occupied
nearly an hour. aWhat lie success 10
1ife?' he said: "~Self-support, good edu-
cation, wisely chosen occupation, happy
home and o saved soul" Many other
equally interesting questions we're ans
wered. In answer to q spirited ap-
peal by Secretary Wight, twelve men
signifed their willingness to lead a bet
ter life, and the meeting closed with
prayer by Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage.
Other meetings Of q religious char
acter Were also being conducted In the
art tent, or the w. G. T. U. tent and Ves-
pers in the G. L. s. G. tent. There
we're large crowds and interesting exer-
cises at all.
EVENING CONCERT.
The sacred concert In the evening was
| of q richly varied and combined char
acter. There we're some choice selections
by the band, a trio OF most pleasing
voice and harmony by Nesdames Demp.
ster, Mease and Hubbell, violin solo by
Miss Rush, vocal solo by Prof Lee Kratz
a recitation-"Ben Cradlebow"-by Mrs
Melville and a chorus with orchestrs
accompaniment, entitled, Before Je.
hovah's Awful Throne" solo by Miss
Runals and finally, "Gloria," from MOI
arts Twelfth Mass, by the band. Prof
Moody, who conducted the concert ano
arranged the program, is deserving OF
great praise for this delightful treat.
REV. 7. DE WITT TALMAGE.
1t was something Of a surprise to the
people ON the grounds when they learn,
ed that Rev. T. De Witt Talmage was to
preach to them last evening, and .conse.
quently the auditorium was packed tc
It's utmost capacity. He took as his
text, Psalm 19:8-"The statutes of the
Lord are right" He paid a fine tribute
to the everlasting character of the bible
and its many preeminent qualities as
compared with other books and then
took up an examination OF it's merits az
to authenticity, style, doctrine and ef.
fects. The only way to get an idea of q
sermon by Talmage is to hear it yourself
There is SO much in the delivery, the
gesture, the ~earnestness, the descriptive
imagery of the man that description ID
impossible. You cannot explain how
but some way In his own peculiar way
he reaches the hearts Of the people ant
grows upon them. He Is much more
impassioned and forcible in his preaching
than in his lecturlng, and it is impossible
for an audience to weary or get ava,
from him, SO striking is he in his man
ner and method Of presenting Christ anG
the Word.

PARLIAMENTARY.
At 10 a. m. the w. G. T. U. ladies me,
in sthe auditorium to practice parlia
mentary tactics and in the absence o.
Major Picker, Mrs. DR.. Parks acted al
chairman. 1t was a very spirited meet
ing and the ladies are not novices in tht
art defensive. Much useful and neces
sary information is picked up at a for
ensic contest of this kind.
"wILL IT PAY"
was the thought underlying Rev. Geo
Hundley's lecture. The gentleman is
jolly, solid sort of a man intellectual,
and his address al spiced with man,
happy jokes and illusions. He discoun
tenanced shams and quacks a plead TO
true -earnestness and worth in labor.
