During the burial services over the re-
mains of the late Mr.. John Griffith, in
Hollywood Cemetery Sunday afternoon. a
very unfortunate incident occurred. and
il las since been much discussed. and
common iumOr has given a distorted
version Of the true facts.

ored member If AnawOn Tribe OF Red
Men. and While lie had Deon m sympathy
Al not in profession a 3a2dst. IN bis
aeath-bed he was confirmed by a catholic
priest. his daughter being a mcmDc. CT
that denomination.
Father O'Reily. OF Sacred Heart
church conducted the burial rites up 10
the time the coffin was laid on the sup
ports over the grave. In accordance
with the ritual or the Red Men, AZ TINS
iunctrre the Sachem gathered his tribe
around the grave. and performed h-!cf
Dortion of the service. As is customary
ne then stepped back 10 allow tho priest
10 conclude his part Of the exercises.
Father O'Rielly. however. declined TO
ofgiciate any further, and the burial rites
Of the Red Men were proceeded with.
The report which gained circulation y as
that some unpleasant words we're *
changed by the Sachem and Father
O.Riellv. but this Is denied by both Catho-
lies and Red Men conVersant Win the
Father O'Rielly's action was doubtless
due 10 the known opposition OF MS cNurcn

At Pine-Street Baptist church Sunday

proaclel from the fifteenth verse of the
sixth chapter OF Galatians. For in Christ
Jesus neither circumcision availeth any
thing nor uncircumcisi0n, but new
creature
Mr. Hutson said that when one became
q Christian many changes took place IN
him. Paul said. "lf any man he IN Christ
he is new creature" The speaker said
be would mention some of the Changes.
First. Regeneration, one has new
heart He Is a new being. not physically,
but spiritually. one cannot attain 10 per-
lection in his life. 10 is impossible. There
are in ms two great opposing forces, war
ring one against the other, and there
are times when the evil OyercOmes the
good and gains the mastery over us. one
must have faith.
our minds a4e changed: we once loved
20 think on things Of the world: our
natures now think on Cod on his ways.
Then. there must be repentance Sorrow
for sin annoys us, and then comes con-
version. change OF conduct. Then
comes Justification, new state.
HIS standing before God is new.
once fnder the wrath OF God. but now
we are acquitted one is not only for
given, out he rs justified lie stands before
God us though De- had never snned.
And then we have adoption, change OF

robbers, murderers and liars now
through Christ jesus be is a child OF
God. of the family Of Christ. and his
relations and friends are prophets, saints
ana angels
Next. We have sancthcation. Sanctih-
cation is gradual. slow. and continues 10

last. we have Qualification. a change from
earth TO heaven. All these changes have
taken place; and they must take place.

continued, brings us 10 the question
