Tlse elements which enter into j,
are diverse, There are seme hon-
est working people who have icir
the movement because they art
without work. Theirs are some
tramps and criminals, who have
soined it in mere spirit of restless
ness and vagabondage. AND
between these TIVE extremes thero
is a great body of men who have
Joined it from a variety OF
motives, good, bad and indifferent.
What is significant lie not the fact
that a few thousand men can be
picked mp over the country to join
in picnic tramp across the contin
ent, and to remain in the ranks a.
long as they are fed. What is
significant is the degree of popular
sympathy extended to them by tn,
mass of the people East and West.
Il is idle to attribute this wholly to
fear and self interest. 1t 10 clear
that the sympathy is genuine, and
this sympathy indicates a popular
consciousness that there is some
where a social wrong to be redress
ed. As we said last week, it is the
duty of the statesman to stndy this
movement and understand what is
the causc, not of the Industrial
army, but of the popular sympathy
with it.
One thing Is clear; there is no
Just ground for the existence of the
army. 1t was very well for the IN
represented English people to go
en- masses to present petition to
Che king in 1880, and to the parlia
neut in 1S4S. But there are no
people unrepreeented in this coun
fry. IF the workingmen, East or
West, North or South ARE suffering
from an injustice, they have only
TO choose, at regular election, re
representatives. to congress to present
that injustice in a formal and or
DERBY manner, and demand that it
be abolished. In country which
possesses universal suffrage there lie
no excuse for presenting petition
30 congress by a msss meeting.
The people do not humbiy ask jus
fice in America; they lawfully, and
By their representatives, demand
and exact it.

THE JAPANESE TABLE.
The Japanese table, presided over by
several little girls, was a very pretty
department. The Japanese curios,
statuary, brie.a-brac, etc, for sale met
with ready purchasers. Among the ex-
hibits was q very handsome photograph
Of the Rev. Father Younan, one oil the
priests who conducted the recent mis-
sion at the Cathedral The little girls
acting as salesladies at this table are
Misses Maggie Gilligan, Agnes Smith,
Gertrude Locker, Blanche Hallissey
and Annie Jepson.
Last. but not least, in the bazaar room
is the fortune teller, direct from Upper
ary, Ireland, whose divinations are pro-
nounced marvellous. Yesterday little
boy tempted the fates and the future
by seeking to learn what was In store
for him. The seeress informed MIN
that he was soon to receive veloclpede,
a possession dear 20 the heart OF every
boy. The little one replied: YES l

The room on the right hand OF the

through the brightly colored shades,
made a very pleasant picture. The

this connection l asked if he had ever paid

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF CHRISTMAS.
BY REV. W. S. RALPH.

Christmas bears to us the same
significance that was borne by the
"song in the air" when the first glad
Christmas morning broke over the
hills of Judea, with only the difference
that its meaning has expanded as the
mind and heart of man have expanded
with the expanding years. 1t has in
it today less of prophecy and more Ct
fulfillment. 1t has in it more of reas-
surance and joy, and brings even
gladder tidings than then. 1t was
then the herald song of new and
grander creation; and today it pro-
claims that grander creation far ad-
vanced toward completion = man
born to new life, new light, new and
higher relations and hence to new
duties and new responsibilities that
he has been advancing steadily from
age to age, and thousand new and
brilliant lights now CLEAN along his
way where there was only intellectual
and spiritual darkness.
Louder today than ever it proclaims
God glorified in truer apprehension
of his goodness, in deeper conscious
ness of his nearness and condescen-
sion, and in the more perfect realiza-
ton of the truth that all barriers are
swept away and God and man are in
contact in the human soul.
Today it bears absolute assurance
of the promised goodwill" in the
supreme confidence engendered, that,
Notwithstanding all the sorrows and
mysteries of life, divine love is over
all, and higher wisdom than ours
directs our destiny.
As the cradle song of the Saviour
it was a message of peace and har-
mony, proclailning prophetically at
least, the reconciliation of earth to
heaven, and of man to his fellows.
Today it includes hallelujah song
that the atonement of man with God
and man with man is so far COM
pleted that through the goodwill of

THE ALLEGED SOJOURN OF CHRIST
IN INDIA.
BY REV. JACOB sTRAUB, D D.
COLUMBUS. WIS.

Some years ago it was reported
that somewhere in the East there
was found an account of journey
that Jesus had made to that country
to study among the Buddhists. 1t
was to be published shortly and make
some very astounding disclosures of
Christ's connections with the Bud
dist religions. So far as l know the
"find" was not published. Recently.
however, work appeared in France,
porporting to be such discovery by
one Notovitch, Russian. Consider
able circumstances are detailed in
connection with the finding to give
the account flavor of veracity. Mr..
Notovitch finding himself in Thibet in
the midst of Buddhism, made search
for the manuscript which was ru-
mored to exist thereabouts. At
length by the accident of broken
leg which brought him under the
care of priest he succeeded in OBJ
tanning it. The priest procured a
copy and translated it to him. OF
this translation he took notes and
and from them wrote the book. 1t
is needless to repeat more of the af-
fair or to go into an account of the
book itself further than to say that
it comprised the period of Christ's life
between his fifteenth and twenth-
ninth years, that shortly after his re-
turn home after his interview with the
doctors in the temple, he accompani-
ed some Jewish merchants to theEa-t
studied Sanskrit and Pail, read Il e
Vedas and Buddhist Canon, and til Ii
returned to Palestine to preach the
Gospel; and that after the crucifxion

God to men they have learned to love
Him, and learned good will to each
other-that acts of kindness and
deeds of love, overfowing and full,
should shine forth in the lives of men.
The lesson of Christmas is unity
ing, helping the world sor a day at
least, to realize its ideals of brother
hood, giving it mountain day where
in it is lifted out of the valleys of
wickedness and selfshness into a
more vital atmosphere, where kindly
sympathies are surely enkindled, the
warmth of love is felt, and it is en-
abled to see that sit is better to give
than to receive"
To the aged it recalls a thousand
tender memories of "Auld Lang
Syne;" the mother, bending above
the cradle of her sleeping infant hears
it, and it ennobles her maternity and
intensifes her sympathy for helpless
ness; to the children it conjures up
visions of "a fairy isle in summer
sea-" it brings Joyous anticipations
and present blessings; and to all
who hear it is message of better
life, clearer light, more cheerful hope,
greater help, and abounding love to
the world.

MEETINGS AT VILLISCA, Ia.

Our pastor, Rev. L. f. Porter and his
wife. Rev. Charlotte Porter, have just
closed series of meetings here, which
began Friday evening, November Both
and continued one week. On the first
two evenings the meetings were held in
the opera house, but on Sunday we were
locked out by the Christians(?) who have
absolute control of the opera house on
Sunday, having leased it for one year, or
until they build church.
Through the kindness of the Adven-
lists we we're enabled to hire the use of
their church for Sunday morning and
afternoon, they using it in the evening.
In this church Bro. Porter preached two
mastery sermons to large audiences.
On Monday noon, Rev. j. e. Keyes,
whose services had been engaged by our
pastor, arrived from Mount Pleasant,
and when told of the treatment we had
received from the hands of the Chris.

opera house that night and also preach.
his subject being, "Who Are Christians?"
The building was filled with represen-
tatives from all churches who gave the
closest attention for one hour and
quarter to the speaker, who spoke from
the following words IF any man have
not the spirit of Christ, he is none of
his" The sermon was almost wholly ex-
tempore, and was power in behalf of
our cause in Villisca at this time. Bro.
Porter followed for ten minutes with
timely exhortation.
The following evening the opera house
was crowded to hear Rev. Mrs. Porter
on, "The Kingdom of Heaven and Where
and What is it?"
Her discourse was an eloquent appeal
to all for higher and better living. At
the close Mrs. Shafer, formerly Pres
byterian. was received into the church.
Rev. Mr.. Keyes' solos we're a great
help in these meetings. He also led all
the song services, and made addresses
at all the meetings.
The next evening church meeting
was held at the home of Grandma Re-
becca Overman. at which nearly all the
members were present and it was un
animously decided to accept the plans
and specifications exhibited by our
pastor for new church and to begin at
once to solicit for funds for church
edifice costing about $1,000.
Mr.. Keyes reported that he hal by
personal canvass raised $500 which
covers all expenses for the year in
having services one half the time. We
shall hope and work for new church to
be dedicated withir the coming year.
We are poor in money but rich in spirit
ual life and hopes for the future.

who has large means help us in this day
