a Card of Thanks.

On behalf OF Lakeside Church, and
for myself personally, desire to ac-
knowledge our appreciation Of the
support given us on the occasion of
the Sam Jones lecture. We have not
sought contributions by any sort
OF public entertainments for more
than two years, and the success OF
this one leads us to believe that many
persons more readily attended out of
friendliness to us as a church. The
lecture was a financial success, to
which the newspapers of the city
contributed more largely, perhaps,
than any other agency, and they
have our thanks.
We especially thank Capt Welsh Of
Hotel Trulock for entertainment OF
Mr. Jones free of charge TO us.

THE DUTY OF CITIES.
Some Opinions Advanced by the Rev
A. c. HirSt.

THE Perils Of the City are the Danger of the
Hour was the subject OF Rev. A. C. HIrsts
sermon last evening at Simpson Memorial
Church, corner of Hayes and Buchanan streets.
Itwas the fourth in his series of lks on topic $
of common interest and was listened TO by q
large congregation.
DR.. Hirst selected his text from Acts xxi:39:
81 am a citizen of no mean city" The purpOrt
of the speakers remarks was to show that, as
the cities were the radiating places for all
things, good and evil. it was of the most vital
importance to the entire community that only
good should emanate from Them. The way to
obtain this was to have the municipal govern
ments clean, which was only to be accomplished
by means of the ballot.
The trouble was that people do not fully
realize the Importance of cities, and. as an
illustration, he said that the political minds of
Philadelphia. Chicago and San Francisco de-
termiue those Of the respective States.
"Tbe stability of all the system rests upon
the city, and it rests with US TO see that the
right meu are in Inc right places. Whether
you are rich man or a poor man, caiitalist
or a pauper. you ought 10 be deeply interested
In how the municipal government is carried on
and how the trusts are carried out"
After referring TO the present evils and
abuses The speaker said that while he did not
believe III { politics should be brought into the
church, yet he was of the opinion that il any
permanent reform was to be accomplished IL
would come only by the gospel OF the New
Testament.
The speaker then referred to the political
bosses and declared that If there be any danger
TO this republican government il was due TO
tie existence of this class.
In closing he said that the eyes of the East
were upon this land of fruit and flowers and
stand up and work for clean municipal gov
ernment.

The Reformation Restored and the

DR.. HEMPHILL DISAPPROVES
Sermon on the Duties and the
PeriIS of Cities.
DR.. HIRsT ON POLITICAL BOSSES
Rev. George Edward Walk Delivers
an interesting Discourse on In
spiration at Trinity Church.

Rev. DR.. Hemphill preached a strong
protest against the Darwinan theory of
evolution at Calvary Church last night.
He began his discourse by pointing out
the fact that the deductions of learned
men have varied continually, even within
the memories of many people now living,
'Ralf a century ago spontaneous gener-
alton was believed in. Professor Tyndall
at the outset OF his career was a disciple
of this theory, so was Professor Huxley,
but after careful examin alton he too aban-
doned it. AS we walk through the grave
stones of the past we are coming contin u
ally against tombstones inscribed Sacred
TO the memory of departed theories
sit was once believed that separate pair
OF ancestors existed for each of the five
different races OF mankind. Darwin as
serts in opposition TO this that not only
are all men descended from the same
source. but also that birds, beasts and ami
mails had the same prototype"
The prea cher then went on to prove that
though there are variations, history and
geology prove that thew are all within the
limits of one species. 1t W as all very we'll
TO talk about remote common ancestors
between different species, but where were
the Intermediate forms?
Darwin says that they did exist, but
that in the lapse Of ages they have al died
out. Now, it seems to me inexplicable that
not single intermediate form has ever
been discovered in the fossilliferous
rocks"
The preacher concluded his sermon by
describing the various strata of geology,
and emphasizing the fact that each form
OF animal life suddenly appeared, without
any intermediate forms to connect it with
the species below it. "The inference is,
then, that they we're brought into being by
the hand of God"

VISIONS WHICH INSPIRE.
Hopeful Lesson From the Life of
Moses.

NlOSCSs
Rev. George Edward Walk preached at

on Tine Visions Which Inspire Human Life,

upon the steaofastness of his character, which
was never shaken by the vicissIudes through
which he passed.
"MOses, we are told, endured as seeing Him

his armor. II was by such life that he ac-
complished his great work. We like TO hear OF
the interior life OF statesmen. warriors, poets
and great men OF every KIND. And here, by the
touch of divine hand, we have an inside view
OF this great man. We see how it was that he
kept himself up under his tremendous respon-

AS TO BATTLE FLAGS.
Controversy Caused by Versions 'of
the Emperor's Speech.

LONDON, Oct. pa Berlin dis patch to
the Times ssys that though the Prussian
Cabinet sat for five hours on Friday,
further meetings are expected before a
final decision in regard to the repressive
measures against socialists is arrived at.
Among the measures likely to be adopted
is strict press law. with stringent pro-
visions against the gloriica ton of crimes
and criminals.
The dispatch adds that versions have
been published of a passage in the En-
peror's speech delivered at the consecra-
lion of the flags on Thursday. and that
these have caused a lively controversy
One version makes the passage a rhetorical
expression of confidence that the half bat
talions for which the flags were intended
would. if required to fight, be as success full
as whole battalions. The other version
makes the passage d definite expression of
the hope that the half battalions would
soon be converted into whole ba,talons
IL the latter rendition is correct it fore
shadows an immense increase in the peace
effective, which would occasion fierce op-
position In the Reichstag. Unfortunately "
the official Taper omils the phraseology,
which was mysterious and significant.
