the compass of the White City, 50 shall the
other barriers of prejudice and ostracism be
battered down, and all men coming together
within the confines of acknowledged truths,
acknowledge in turn, that though these things
are revealed there are still some things, for see
ing which the eyes of men are sightless.
Yet these are the very things that will not
be recognized and the very barriers that are the
last to be broken down. An incident of the
famous Midway Plaisance will illustrate 1t
was an active Christian worker who had con-
versed with Mohammedam, and on parting
said, 81 suppose you 60 to church every Sun
d4y, like good Christian" "No" replied
he, go every day like good Turk"
dare say it is no injustice to assert that the
active Christian worker felt not the rebuke to
herself in that answer, but thought him only
horrid heather, wrapped up in the labyrinthine
folds Of his uncouth superstitions. Yet how
dare we call them superstitions? How dare
we name and classify the manner in which the
homage of man is received at the throne of
God? Is that not one Of the things hidden to
usP How dare any one pronounce mortal con-
domination on eternal things and assert that
the reverence Of faith is valid and the sacri-
fees laid at another altar are spurnedp Let MS
be modest in our assertions. Let us not Judge
of the things not revealed to u.s. or if we must
ency and say, as did the sages of the Talmud,
lin Abodah Zorah) that all the righteous, of
whatsoever people, have share in the world
to come.
There is one other thing connected with the
Worlds Exposition, that sends it warning
voice, calling for cessation of presumptuous de-
mand. That thing was the Sunday closing
question. The demand was made for the clos
ing of the gates by the representatives of the
Christian churches They protested against
what they called the dissertation of the Ameri-
can Sabbath. They declared that the Ameri-
can Sabbath must be observed, and by all
people, whether they will or no. They de-
manded that as they observed Sabbath SO
must all men, either voluntarily or under COM
pulsion. They made the-demand in the name
of the Protestant Christian religion, and yet, in
most irreligious manner, threatened to boycott
and fight the fair if their demand was not COM
piled with.
And Christian Endeavor Societies and pastors
of country cross roads parishes began an active
crusade against the exposition, soliciting
pledges and sending in volume after volume of
names of thos- who pledged themselves to boy
colt the fair if it was kept open on Sunday.
Happily the good sense of the preponderance
of the American people prevailed, and though
the directors Of the Exposition juggled with
the Sunday opening until the last week. still
l venture to say that the number Of those, who

been taught u.s. 1t has been aptly said that
the exposition was university, with each
nation for q class, and every visitor as a
student" But the mere presence of student
in university does not give an education,
without application on the part of the student
The visitor to the Fair was taught in Just 80
far and in just such direction as his application
of the plastic truths before him warranted
It is quite possible that many visitor went
away without ever such train Of thought
coming to him as has been suggested by our
text, the secret things belong to God, but
the things revealed to MS and to our children
forevermore." Here in magnificent array
were the things revealed. All the victories
which man had won over stubborn nature, all
the conquests he had made over the elemental
forces of the universe, all the things which he
had devised and wrought and brought into being
with infinite skill and exhaustless ingenuity,
all the things which his fertile brain could plot
and his cunning hand complete, for his
use, for his pleasure, for his comfort and his
needs, all those things were there They are
the things revealed, for the physical happiness
of ourselves and our children forevermore.
But were there no things still hidden? We're
there no questions still unanswered, no pro-
blems still unsolved, in all the multitude and
mass of mans mighty achievements? Could
one not, and can any one say that there did
not some, turn away from all the grandeur
and all the glory and all the greatness, with
the same dull ache gnawing at the heart the
same dark doubt flooding the breast, with the
same cry of the soul unanswered and unstilled
Language Is exhausted in picturing the ma
terial grandeur there collected, but after all is
said and all is pictured, we feel that all of life
il not there revealed. There are something's
greater, grander than even these that remain
hidden, the ineluctable mysteries of life and
eternity, known only to Omniscience.
It is true we are ever striving to unravel
these mysteries, even as we are striving to con-
quer the physical worlds But though we
strive never 80 hard, things do escape us, even
when we seem nearest unto their accomplish
ment. But mankind is divided in this spirit
ual struggle, and the paths Of his endeavor lie
far apart, though they all tend in the same
direction. Is there not in this very fact an
evidence of our weakness, of our being but as
. child who stands at a counter, and whose
fingers only reaching the top are blindly CROP
ing, while the eyes are not high enough to
see? Is not all humankind in touch with
Deity, but seeing not, does not all humankind
grope blindly to reach and gather the truths of
eternity? And some may secure one frag-
ment and some another and others still a third
Yet each claims it has the all and will not re-
cognize the possessions of the others.

DcutcfOHOmy xxfX-2S.
On Monday Last, the 3Oth of October, by
limitation of the Congressional act, which
created it, the Worlds Columbian Exposition
OF 1893 came to close. It had been intended
to make its final hours, like the death-song Of
the swan, the supreme climax of its life, that
1T should expire in blaze of beauty, more
glorious than all the months of its existence
But the untoward event of the assassination of
Mayor Harrison, who had been so prominently
Unidentified with the Exposition, changed the
triumph into mourning, and the expiration of
the Worlds Fair was marked only by the haul
ing down of the flags on the various buildings
and the firing of the national salute at sunset.
So much has been said already, both private
~ and publicly about the grandeur and
magnifcence of the exposition, and SO much
will doubtless be said during the coming
winter, that it would be needless for me, even
were it my intention, to dwell upon these
topics. Suffice to say, that it is universally
conceded that the exposition was the most
stupendous and magnificent attempt of its
kind that had ever been made, that it's
artistic and mechanical success was in keeping
with the magnifcence of its proportions and
the grandeur of it's environment, and that the
city Of Chicago, and the country at large, have
every reason to rejoice in what was truly
national triumph over every similar national
undertaking.
This being said, let us consider what are the
benefits that have arisen or may arise from it,
and what the lessons it can teach us.
Among the primary benefits may be enume-
rated are the stimuli that were given in
many directions, to our inventive genius, to
our mechanical possibilities to our artistic
capabilities, and lastly to our national
pride. The worlds fair was competitive
examination, in which we were being tested,
and our best efforts were put forward, and
our activities stimulated to excel in the high
est and the best.
The stimulus to our national pride is aroused
when we reflect that all these things have been
accomplished under the freest and most ideal
of human governments. We are proud, and
pardonably and justly 30, when we compare
our method of government with those of the
manifold nations who had gathered at the
fair, and remember that not as vassals or un-
willing subjects, but as q sovereign people,
have we toiled and achieved and wrought our
destiny, and maintained those institutions
which are the embodied will of a people, a
people free from the thrall of natal accidents
and the sway of predestined monarchs.
But this pride and this love, here aroused,
should take an active form, to gift us with de-
termination, never permit those institutions to
suffer from corruption and dishonor, but to
maintain them in their true simplicity and

quantity is to purchased-and in fin

much as 500 tons in normal times-sell-

TWO new trustees. Since Jay Gould's
death Mr.. Sage has been the sole trustee.

Armour VIII Fight the Minnesota Law In
the United States Courts.
ST. PAUL, Nov. 24.-The Armour
Packing company has filed bill of COM
plant in the United States circuit court
against Berndt Anderson, state dairy
and food commissioner, for threatening
to carry out the provisions of the oleo-
margarine law against the complainant,
which claims the law is unconstitutional,
and sues for a writ of injunction against
him.
Among other things the complaint
states that the process of manufacture is
clean and wholesome, and is conducted
under, the supervision of the United
States inspectors; that it contains many
of the same elements and Ingredients as
butter, except the volatile acids, which
cause butter to turn rancid, and that it
is cheaper than butter.
1t further states that oleomargarine
has naturally a light yellow color, and
that when manufactured without color
ing matter it closely resembles butter
manufactured without coloring matter,
and that the coloring matter used is that
used in coloring butter, and to color the
same bright pink, as required by the
Minnesota law, would utterly destroy its
commercial character. 1t claims that
''oleo" Is a wholesome food article.
Issued an Injunction.
ST. PAUL. Nov. 23.-Judge Nelson of
the United States circuit court has
issued an order temporarily restraining
Berndt Anderson, state food commits
sioner, from seizing OF taking possession
OF any oleo Armour has now in the state,
or may hereafter ship in. This order
holds until the final adjudication of the
case, which will not be until January.

A. w. McCready had the following

or in other words, the stealing of $50
worth of hay as alleged in the complaint;
g. 8. SaxbY, @. r. Saxby, G. A. Saxby
and ID. G. Kennison. Some OF these
parties had land leased from McCready
and the latter wanted to seize ii
for the rent The boys thought them
selves entitled to the hay, and COM
menced hauling it away when Nc
Cready had them all arrested. Deputy
Sheriff McGovern formed himself into a
hollow square and took the four men
and five loads OF hay all in. This was
about Ii a. M, and Justice Holdridge
held the defendants until after 2 p. M,
and McCready. whom the boys affirmed,
had them arrested in order that he
he might take the hay himself, not APP
pearing they were dismissed. The sher-
i'll and his deputy meanwhile had been
securing all over town to find McCread.,
but could find no trace of HIM. The
gentlemen arrested started out to get
the balance OF the hay and should they
