BARDUNs FIVE-DoLLAR NOTE.
How Times" Compositor Recovered a
Bill He Had Hidden.

Bill He Had Hidden
His name is Bardun and by occupation he
is a printer. He is an exceptionally clever
fellow, and those who know him have III
friendliest feeling for him. Periodically
Barden is bibulousiy inclined, and il that
state OF mind his memory ia not always clear.
Recently ne went home and knowing that
his good wife would justifabIy examine his
pockets, he secreted 5-doIlar bill When
Bardun awoke next morning all memory OF
the hidden note had left him. He was de-
pressed in spirits and bemoaned his loss
for he had proposed to have great time. He
returned to work, but his heart was not IN
his task.
He related his grief to his feIlow-eraftsmen
IN IHE TIMES office, and they eondoled with
hlm with mere than customary feeling, be-
cause they themselves might have enioyed
mueh OF Its purchasing power He ransacked
the Wnole house, tearing up carpets, thinking
he had concealed il in the dwelling.
JOY came TO Bardun the other night. how
ever. He took a take on the nook which
told how asomnambulist had been detected bv
his wife in hiding his money, the article ap-
pearing in yesterdays TINES.
Il know where my S5-bill is now he said
TO slug II. and post haste ha asked the
foreman for permission TO get OF. The re-
quest was granted, and Bardun's sub has
now three days on the hook in consequence.
1t seems he had placed the money behind a
loose brick in the wall Of the stable on the
rear OF his lot and the reading of the SOM
nambuhsts pranks was the means OF making
the unfortunate printer happy.

TO SAVE SINNERS.
IT Seems Hard TO Convince People That
Such Was Christ's Purpose

II Seems Hard TO Convince People That
Such Was Christ's Purpose.
In the absence of the pastor, Rev. Dr.
Teunis Hamlin, the pulpit of the Church of
the Covenant, Connecticut avenue and Eigh-
teenth street northwest, was filed yesterday
morning by the Rev. t. H. Rice. ofthe Second
Presbyterian Church. Alexandria.
The Rev. Mr. Rice took for the text, Mat
thew i:21--'Thou shalt call his name Saviour,
because he shall save his people from their
sins.
The whole gist of the Gospel, said Mr.
Rice, is prophetic. 1t inspires a looking for
ward tc the coming of something promised.
We can hardly comprehend what this some
thing is, but we anxiously look for it. from
the cradle to the grave. Christ, according to
the text. came on earth to save His people
from sin, but how hard it is to convince the
sinful man that Jesus wants to deal with sim
ners. Was it not His special mission on
earth to save sinners?
Rev. Mr.. Rice then contraSted the life OF
the honest, upright Christian, whose every
thought is turned to how best he can serve
his Master and work out the salvation of his
own soul, with the man who is dominated by
sin The one lives in the full enjoyment of
all Gods bounteous gifts in the anticipation
of gaining the promised reward of O lie ev-
erlasting, while the other, led captive by the
power of sin. sees and cares not for the
promised salvation and would sacrifice his
soul for the passing pleasures OF the moment.

INTERNATIONAL BIMETALLIsM.

An effort is being made in Germany to
bring about another international monetary
conference with view of securing the re-
habiIitation of silver in the worlds money,
and last Saturday the Reichstag adopted a
resolution fayoring such conference.
Bimetallism can never be established except
by international agreement. No one country
is strong enough to force the commercial
world to accept coin silver at a parity with
coin gold when the market value OF silver as
a commodity brings but little more than half
the price OF gold. ttesi
When nations trade with each other and
products are exchanged there must be an uni
versal money standard TO facilitate the ex-
change. Gold is the accepted standard in the
great exporting nations, and has become the
measure OF value OF all products. Why it has
been adopted as such measure has no bearing
on the question. The fact Is established that
neither merchant nor capitalist engaged in
foreign intercourse will accept any other
medium, and without an International agree
ment this condition cannot be changed.
The influence of the German Reichstag
may bring about another conference. Ma
tions are generally ready to confer on ques-
tions that concern international affairs, but
it is extremely doubtful if an agreement could
be reached. The tendency among foreign
governments is to keep hands off from
financial affairs And the United States must
also learn that lesson To keep the public out
of the hands of the financial Phillistines.

STORY OF THE ENGLISH BIBLE.
Prof. Gilbert Tells of Its Development I

Prof. Gilbert Tells of Its Development to
the Present Version
The English Bible was the subject OF the
Sunday lecture OF Rev. J. E. Gilbert, secre-
tary of the American Society of Religious
Education. at the Gunton Temple Memorial
Presbyterian Church last night.
DIR. Gilbert said that Christianity was first
brought to England in the year 597 by Au-
gustine. sent by Pope Gregory Ihe great. He
of the Gospels. The first attempt to render
the Scriptures into Saxon was made by Cad
mon, an ignorant monk. When Alfred as
cended the throne he had made translation
of the ten commandments and placed them
at the head OF his laws. All of the Saxon
translations were merely paraphrases from the
Latin.
Until fourteen years after the giving OF
Magma Charta the Bible was permitted 10 the
people by papal approval. The council OF
Toulouse first forbade its use In 1882 John
WIclif made the first complete translation
into English. William Tyndale afterwards
translated the New Testament from the Greek
text which had been collected by Erasmus.
The Geneva Bible was the first translation
from the Hebrew and the Greek In this the
Then came the Bishops Bible. BY the end
OF the sixteenth century the Bible had gained
Il complete victory and was in general use.
Unable TO prevent the use of the English
text, the Pope in 1882 and 1909 caused yer-
sion to be made. which is in use by the Cath
olic Church to-day The King James YER

version of 1881 and 1884 is a coordinate wit

W. H. McAllister, pastor of the Methodist

'Iife in another world
The speaker said that in these days of
magnihcence and splendor on one hand and
poverty and squalor on the other. when there
has risen among the poor feeling of Unjust
ice. the Church is called upon to preach the
ancient faith, and to be of practical service
to mankind.
1t should tell mankind what future blessed
ness it is destined for of the eternal Joys of
the life to come. With this assurance men
would be better able to continue the struggle
of life. and to more easily bear trouble.
1--WE sheuld think more of the life in the
other world than we do continued the
speaker There is nothing transcendental or
mystic in its contemplation. Heaven should
be here. Life that is life indeed in this
world is that which is continued in the world
to come. Masters in the material world
should think more of this future life and listen
to the airy voices. An English poet--a Titan
at twenty-ive-the loveable John Keats, cnce
wrote from the depths OF his heart:
"He neer is crowned wiSh immortality,
Who fears to follow where airy voices lead"

Congregation of Kendall Branch Calvary
Baptist Church in Their New Tabernacle.
The opening OF Kendall branch OF Calvary
Baptist Church, corner of Ninth and B streets
southwest, was celebrated yesterday with an
aIl-day service
The services were begun in the old build
ing. corner Tnirteen-and-a-half and B streets,
with prayer-meeting at $3.50 a. M, which con-
tinled until 915 O'Clock. the hour for Sun
day-school
At 10 o'clock the members OF the Sunday
school. preceded by the superintendent. Mr..
Glen T.. Jones, and the members of the
church, preceded by the pastor Rev. Theron
Outwater. formed in line and marched to
their new, beautiful, and commodious taber
nacle. Here they were met and welcomed by
Rev. DIR. s. II. Green, pastor OF Calvary
Baptist Church.
The union service at 3 p. m. was attended
by large congregation, which taxed the
seating capacity of the church to its utmost
capacity.
In the sanctuary were Reys. Theron Out
water, w. s. o. Thomas. \. &. Naylor. @. G.
Meador. J. J. Muir. Hugh T. Stevenson, and
Greene Clay Smith.
The service was opened by Rev. w. S. o.
Thomas. who read the Scripture lesson.
Short addresses were then made by Revs. C.
e. Meador, j. j. Muir. and Greene Clay
Smith, each of whom rendered his heartiest
congratulations 10 the pastor and the men,
bers OF the congregation on the success OF
the new departure they had taken, and re-
minded them that with this step would come
new cares and greater responsibilities.
Here they must battle for truth and Christian
ity and the uplifting Of humanity. and if the
battle were waged in the future as it had
been in the past untold and lasting good will
be accomplished.
Rev. Charles Stokely, OF the Sixteenth
Street Baptist Church, was expected to be
present and make an address, but found il
Impossible TO attend. A letter commnnicat-
ing his regrets for his absence and his con
gratulations to the pastor and the congrega

CoMMKEDABLE PRoKPrNEss.

The Commissioners are TO be commended
for their promptness and decision in dealing
with the garbage question. Their notidca-
tion to the contractor that they viii begin
this morning to remove. al his expense. all
refuse matter and dead animals still living on
the wharf or at other places, is business like
and in the interest Of the health Of the com
munity.
There has been too much dily-dallying on
the part OF the contractor. Whether the con-
tract was profitable or not. or was made un-
profitable by reason Of conditions which did
not exist at the time he assumed its cbliga-
tions. cannot for moment be permitted to
enter into consideration. Those are vicissi-
tudes and changes that wait upon business.
Had anything occurred to make the contract
more easily and less expensiyely executed,
he would have reaped benefit, as 1t is, he in
ours the loss. That is the contractors mis-
fortune; not the fault of those with whom he
closed the contract
IL might not be an unmixed evil If the
present complications were TO result in the
continued collection and disposal. by the
District authorities, of the garbage and other
refuse matter of the city. There is rea-
sonable certainty, at least, that the work
would be promptly and thoroughly done, and
in the event of such emergencies as that with
which the authorities were confronted this
winter they could and undoubtedly would
take prompt action and remove all health
imperiling causes. there being no contractor
in the way to interpose any objections or him
drances.
IF the District owned a garbage crematory
and itself collected the garbage. the vexatious
problem would be solved ''for good and all. -
