WILL VOC GO TO HEAVEN
Preacher Lee Says That Thought Too
Much Occupies Chriatian Minds.

At Taylor Congregational church yes
serday morning Rev. George II. Lee, the
pastor, preached on the subject. Some
Thoughts and Ways of Today That Differ
From Gods" The text was Isaiah lv =:
For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways. saith the
Lord" and said
IF people differ radically in thoughts
and in manners. they never make close
friends. This is the point referred TO in
the text. Our Heavenly Father insists
that IL is a matter OF serious importance
that He and we can never be close friends
unless one of us changes in thoughts and
in ways" A suggestion of some of
the ways In which we differ from God
then followed.
"our Ways today" said the preacher.
',are 10 look first to living, and last.
II il at all, 20 our spiritual needs. We
have the spectacle today OF millions Of
people in the United States who believe in
Christ. bat whose ways are not like His
Ways. Christ was unwilling to be happy
I'm His fathers home OF glory while there
was such = world in existence as ours,
world OF woes and Of sins. But We are
satisfied 10 be happy III such n world. and
even want 10 be rich and comfortable.
while the ocean OF woe rolls on. That IS
one point where there IS = radical differ
ence between ChriSt's ways and our ways,
His thoughts and our thoughts. Peo-
pie generally today expect 10 go
TO heaven when they die. bat
the religion OF Jesus is not q
go-to-heAvcn- " hen-you-die religion. The
general hope OF going to heaven is moth
ing better thaa Seldshness, and If that is
al Christianity does 10 is no better than
any other religion. There is no heaven
bat holiness. and there is no he'll bat sin
and the fruits OF it. In this respect our
thoughts today and Christ's differ. He was
xioas no: so much for that "a to 60 10
heaven when we die.
''Christ's way Of saving the world. his
chosen way, was preaching. Is that our
way today We have two church services
a week. both on the same day. With about
fifteen minutes preaching ST that service.
We will never save the world At that rate.
especially when some folks think one ser
vice day Is all they can stand. and often

Christ thinks, preaching wouid not be the
reading OF an eloquent essay 10 an amused
audience, bat the earnest, cease!ess, plain

THE SOURCE OF CHRISTIAN sox.


Mr.. Tedrsck shows How Different II IL
From HappinesA
Rev. y. r. Ted-ick's sermon nj Trinity
Methodist Episcopal church yesterday
morning was on the cheerful subject,
Christian Joy q Divine Gift" preached
from the text, These things have spoken
unto you. that my joy might remain in
you. and that your JOY might be full
John xviii. Mr. Tedrick said that the re-
iigion of the Bible WAS religion of joy.
and cited numerous passages in the sacred
book where the idea Of JOY Is q prominent
one One of these was where Peter de-
scrioed the experience of believing in the
unseen Christ as Joy unspeakable and
full OF glory" The words of the text were
the words spoken by Christ TO His sorrow
ing Disciples in His last great discourse,
where He tries 10 appease their sorrows by
telling them Of the many mansions of
His Father" and that he goes TO prepare
place for them.
Joy is the highest experience OF the
human soul. Ii comes 10 Us as q result Of
harmony with God. DIR. Bushnell once
made distinction between Joy and hap
plness that seems very much in accord
with scriptural ideas, and throws light on
the facts of Christian experience. We
generally say that man is in the pursuit Of
happiness. We say We are or want TO be
heppy. But our Maker wants US 20 be
joyful, or fuIl of joy. Happiness is sim
ply something coming TO Us from the
physical word, giving us pleasant ex-
periences. That which happens. true may
come ny our efforts, but il Is from without,
as crops or friends. success in business.
good clothing, food. etc. Indeed II is sur
prising how little thing may make US
happy; and then il is surprising again
what small things may rob Us OF this con-
stantiy sought article.
The lesson drawn from this was that
happiness is too treacherous thing to
adopt as an indicator of our relation to
external things. Joy, however, was called
a thing divine, not departing on the slight
est provocation. People were richer in
losing the minor things given up in en-
bracing Christianity, If they might retain
the gifts of Joy and peace. Many instan-
ces of the truth of this contention were
given.

THE COMMAND. move FORWARD"
Mr.. Dunlap Urges the Necessity OF Con-
tinual Progress on Chrtstians.

Mr.. Dunlap Urges the Necessity Of Con-
tinual Progress on Christians.
Rev. X. E. Dunlap, pastor of the First
Christian church, has returned from his
vacation and preached to his congregation
again Sunday morning on the necessity of
a move forward in church work after the
vacation season. Mr.. Dunlap dweIt upon
the fact that since the creation the
world had continually gone forward, the
sun and earth following their courses and
vegetable life reviving when crushed
down. To man also had been given the
command to 20 forward and no man who
looked back was At for the kingdom of
heaven. Ii the earth were to deviate one
hour from its regular revolution on Its
axis. il would be swept out OF its sphere
and crushed to atoms. convulsing the
whole solar system and bringing back
chaos. Similar calamities had befallen
the race when il swerved from obedience
to the law of its spiritual being. while bless
ings had crowned submission TO the divine
leader. Gods command to the people of
Israel to go forward meant that He would
take care of the difficulties and that man
should simply do his duty. The very mo-
ment they questioned Gods ability to do
His part the curse found them. but when
they were obedient the Red sea fed away,
the fall Of mamma came and victory was
won. This meant the abandonment of
some things, for the flesh pots of Egypt
we're too heavy 10 be borne along with the
army of God. The preacher then pro-
ceeded:
''Gird yourself for a new struggle and a
full and hearty obedience to the command
of God. Such faith 10 needed In every
church. in every place. Churches and
missionary societies are made of aggrega-
tions of Christians. Fill your heart with
the discipline Of Christ"
The sermon was then closed with an APP
peal for aid to the church during the year
10 come.

This was learned from Director Nord-
hansen, who is extremely indignant at the
manner in which the city, through It's
Board of Trade, was treated. The lips of
President Keller did not convey the ami
mus of the railroads reply. During the
bitter waterfront fight Mr.. Keller posed
as friend Of the Southern Pacific and de-
plored the radical action. To-day he
stands in much the same light Mr.. Keller
complains that he has often been misrep-
resented by reporters. In this instance
care was taken to jot down every word he
uttered, and he can have no cause to COM
plain. His sayings Will greatly interest
people in Oakland, who every day feel the
arms Of the octopus graSping them more
and more closely. The Interview is put in
question and answer form that it may bs
followed easily; the interrOgater Is of
course the reporter:
Q,-What did you represent to the railroad
representatives?
Ave told them that the change OF the
established order OF things on the Seventh.
street railroad would work good deal Of hard
ship. We represented that business and resi-
dence interests had adapted themselves TO the
former conditions, aao that sudden change iB
them was an injury 10 the Town.
Q.-Wbat did they say to that?
A-They seemed to think the railroad and
not the city was the injured party. Some Of
them-particularly Messrs. Gage and Stubs.
who did most OF the talking-spoke as II they
considered the railroad very badly used in Oak
lard. They did not look at 1t as we did at all.
Q.-What reasons did they give for making
the change?
A.-They can be summed up under three
heads. First, they said they wanted to shorten
the time 10 San Francisco for commuters had
been asking them TO; second. they meant to
stop the free travel on Seventh street. and
third, they did not mean to haul passengers
from East and West Oakland without charge
for the benefit OF the Daye ferry.
Odd you ask them II the frr-limit ordI-
nance recently passed caused hem to make the
change?
Ayes. They said that was not the reason
At the same time they said the ordinance had
been annoying to them.
Odd they show any willingness to change
back to the old way?
A.-No. They held out no hope OF compro.
mise. They said that what had been done could
not be undone.
Q.-What else was said?
A.-They asked me what course as a business
man l would pursue in order to crush out the
opposition ferries.
Q-And your answer?
Al told them hat / would put on fast.run.
ming boats from the foot of Broadway and
would IT duce fare on The other boats and trains
to 10 cents The round "trip.
Thus Pres dent Keller stands on record.
He has advised the Southern Pacific how
to crush the opposition. Comment is un-
necessary.

Ihe hrSt notice the people had that an
indignation meeting was to be held was
gwen out at O'Clock yesterday afternoon,
and when A. L. Frick ascended the plat
form at S:l5 O'Clock to call the meeting to
order every seat on the lower floor was
taken and the gallery contained several
hundred interested spectators The tenn
per Of the audience was strongly in SYM
pathy with the objects of the meeting, and
as each speaker arose to address it the ap-
plause which greeted him was spontaneous
and long continued. Every mention Of
the indigulties which the Southern Pacific
had heaped upon the people of Oakland
met with hearty expression in support Of
their truth.
l.. NJ. Frick opened the meeting by
few poin ted remarks and called for nOmi-
nations for chairman, which resulted in
Assem- blyman Bretz of Alameda being
chosen. In taking the chair Mr.. Bretz
said:
10 say that it gives me pleasure to
accept this honor is but a faint expression
OF my feelings, while at the same time I
feel how unfit and unqualified l am to
properly fill the position.
Ihe present condition OF our common
country causes my heart to sink within
me when l witness on every hand the
evidences Of the despotic rule of power
fu corporation. We meet here tonight
for the purpose of expressing our indigna,
ton, and [ hail the audience here as
sembled with supreme delight The people
are ready to again strike for their liberty,
and the result will. l am satisfied, fully
justify our expectations"
The speaker reviewed the career of the
Southern Pacific road, strongly condemned
its methods and vividly pictured the condi-
ton OF the workingman to-day who is
crushed under the iron heel of capital. He
called upon the citizens of Oakland to as
sert their rights. and in closing said: "Of
all the highbinding thugs. traiu-robbers
and their like that bask in the Almighty's
sunshine, the railroad t1unky has no par
allel."
j. l.. Davie came to the front of the hall
after repeated demands for him, and in
vigorous talk of twenty minutes laid bare
the pretenseS of the Southern Pacific road
that it was properly serving the people.
gave an interesting resume of his personal
efforts to obtain foothold on the water
front and the success that had finally at
tended them, and closed by promising the )
people Of Oakland that if they would sus-
tain the Davle Ferry Company in the
pending contest it would he the effort Of
his life to fulfill every obligation to the
public, promised or implied, asking no
further reward than the con sciousness that
every honest man has after public duty
we'll performed.
MI. Davie was cheered to the echo at
various points in his remarks and left the
stage amid an outburs. of applause.
Ii. f. Huffman was the next spes ker
He said that the people of Oakland ere

beneath it. He cited the history of tae
