coursed on the Church OF
the New Era ideal, placing
morality before creed and correct doc
trine Of life before soul salvation. At
the conclusion the mem bers were served
with eumptuous repsst which the lady
members had prepsred, and fully 800
people psrtook OF the communion service.
The evening service was attended by
about 800 people. After a piano duet
Miss Bruner rendered vocal selection,
and was heartily encored. Rev. Geo.
Cannon spoke in a most eloquent and
touching manner for 20 minutes.
Mrs. Annette Van Brands then re-
cited The Heart OF Old Hickory in
most artistic and pleasing style.
DIR. Downs, the national secretary of
the Church OF the New Era, then made
u brief address.
B. w. Bachelor then announced that
committee had been appointed to

Rev. R. M. Webster then made
most stirring address.
He said: II believe in the new era.
1t is coming. The night is far spent

First Presbytsrian.

Yesterday morning at the First Pres
byterian church, corner OF Second and
Broadway. the pastor, Rev. 3. E. How
ard, delivered thoughtful discourse
based on the sixth chapter of ST. Johns
gospel. Doctrine, said the preacher, is
an important consideration but forms
no essential part OF Christianity. Spirit
comes before dogma in Importance. The
condition OF the church was never 30
depiorable as when debates and hair
splitting Arguments were INDUCED in.
The life of Christ has been felt in every
Christians life since He was upon earth.
He has kept dis promise to impart His
life TO Us.
Each age has framed its own theology
the relation OF God to man. These
theories and changing masses OF opin-
ION have not altered the fact that there
is one spirit, there pulsates one Divine
lie through all Christianity. In q
Christian lite there are two things grow
ing up side by side, human opinion and
the spiritual life from Christ the latter
alone forms The Christianity. Christi
snity is lie not dogma. There ia only
as much Christianity in the world as
there is Christ in the soul OF man. This

The gospel meeting at the Trinity M.
E. church, south, yesterday afternoon.
had an increased attendance. The
opening music was duet sung by Mrs.
Bender and Miss Lulu Pieper, accom-
panied by Miss Matte Duncan. Prayer
was offered by Mrs. j. ". Campbell
end Miss Morse, and then followed an
informal talk to young women by Mrs.
Campbell. 1t was so full of helpfulness
and hope for discouraged and weary
womanhood that it would be well if
every word could be told.
Mrs. Campbell, who assisted in the
fret gospel meeting held, said: am
greatly interested in your work, and be-
lieve that through you there ia much to
be DONE You will need TO be very
Christlike and very courageous.
She announced as her subject that OF
Individuality, and explained that the
subject was pertinent one in these
times, when the highest praise seemed
to be expressed when we said a person
had great individuality. That with it
came alec responsibility. She eaid
God has stamped each one of you from
the first with His individuality, and has
comes sorrow and pain count yourselves
enough to bear it. In whatever YOU
have to do OF daily toll, try to show
character and let the simplest, most
irksome task, be done for the honor and
glory of Christ.
Quoting from II Cor, xii, Mrs.
Campbell said we we're too prone to
think only of ourselves and say that
someone else could do better things
than we.
This was wrong and self conscious
ness, and instead we should study tie
possibilities OF our own souls. II we
could not all sing we could all do some
service that would be just as necessary
and helpful.
Every God given quality means some-
thing and should be put to use, and it is
just as wrong to depreciate ourselves as
to over estimate.
Qioting again, l Cor, xii xii, the
leader spoke more brave words and
urged the very weakest to begin to take
courage and from day to day try to
practice patience and strength. She
said: Lille is not cheap thing, not
an uninteresting thing, ii rightly lived,
and next to Christ Himself Christian
life was more to be sdored than any
thing else In this world"
She referred finally to Galatians, v XIX,
"But the fruit of the Spirit, etc."
Her closing prayer was that each life
may be blessed of God.
Miss Morse made short address, and
the meeting closed with short PRAYERS.
Monday evening is the regular Bible

we must distinguish between the man
ner Of life and the motive of life; the
latter only is Christianity. Christian
life passes hey ond mere morality, it goes
clear to God.
The Christian man is not necessarialy
the orthodox man. There is not devil
in hell or out of it that is not orthodox.
There are multitudes in the church who
are not Christians, they are dead spirit
ually, but orthodox
1t is the spirit OF Christ we want.

pei pride and then He will fill US with

Y. M. @. 4.

Rev. Henry W. Orebbe, of the Second
United Presbyterian congregation,
preached in the Y. NJ. @. A. auditorium
yesterday morning. His text was taken
from First Corinthians, 10th chapter
and 18th verse: Watch We. stand fast
in the faith, quit you like men, be
stroDg." short extract from his SER
mon is given below:
These words have a military ring.
They have the emell of the battlefield
on which the soldier fights and where
he gains victory. They remind ne. or at
least some OF us, perhaps, OF the time
when we stood in just some such cir
cumstances as those which the apostle
had in mind when he uttered these
words. The first command which the
apostle gives us is in regard to vigilance.
and is expressed in the words, "watch
ye." We understand in common terms
the meaning of these words. Phey
signify be on the alert. In like manner
the Christian must stand on his guard
and be ever watchful for the approach
OF the enemy, that he may be prepared
TO use such means as are within his
reach for his own spiritual defense.
There ia never time in all our bis
tory in which we should not be watch
full. This is especially true in reference
to our souls.
We are to use our judgment and in
telligence in our defense, and whether
we see the danger or not, we are called
upon to be watchtul.
Satan takes advantage OF every op-
portunity. He strewe tempting dowere
in our pathway, 80 that in these trials
nd h,1rd do 10 uia
And hence Christ said to his apostles,
Watch and pray lest ye enter into
temptation" for he knew OF the trials
before them and the burdens that were
resting upon them. And so he enjoined
upon them the necessity OF watchful-
ness.
Again, we should be watchful for the
coming of Christ. We are told that He
will come very suddenly and unexpect-
edly, and there is very great danger that
He will find us sleeping, as He found the
five virgins of whom we read.
Stand fast in the faith. You will
recognize with me that there is no stand
where there is no watchfulness.
believe that the apostle means
here by standing fast in the doctrines
which he had been preaching-the
doctrines of grace and salvation.
This standing fast is necessary to the
next injunctions of the tert: Quit you
like men.
Some of you have read the story of
the children of Israel, when they went
out to fight the Philistines. They
wanted to bring the ark of God out that
they might prevail against their enc
mics, but their leader said: "Stand fast,
| quit you ike men,"
Quit you like men that know Christ,
men that bave been armed by faith.
Be manly, be courageous; and then
with watchfulness combined, we will
be able to Withstand temptation.
Let US make these thoughts our
watchword, as we 20 down upon the
street, as we 90 to our homes. Let us
call to mind the injunctions of the
apostle: Watch We, stand fast in the
faith, quit you like men, be strong in
the Lord and in the power of His might" F."
