Rev. II. q, Denham yesterday rendered
ms resignation as pastor of the Central
Christian church. The announcement of
MS lntensions was published exclusively in
the journal yesterday morning. and the
news caused much surprise among the
people, not only of his own church, but
also the members of other churches No
action has yet been taken on the resg-
nation by the official board of the church.
Last evening he preached TO a large con-
sregation, taking as his subject ~ Warn
ing 10 Political Parties" Among other
things he said.
Righteousness eXalteth a nation is
one of the loved texts of the Christian
Endeavor Among other things for which
the Christian Eudeayor host has come to
battle, is integrity in the administration of
every office. Christian Endeavor seeks TO
make this world better, and does not place
all its hopes In the land beyond the

means what il says when II declares The
kingdoms of this world shall become the
kingdom of Cod They mean TO be an
effective force in carrying the Gospel to
fery creature and practicing II In their
lives until this declaration snail become re-
alizaton. With them Christianity is to be-
come practical brotherhood, permeated by
the principles OF Christ. The great Boston
convention emphasized this recently in a
most magnificent way. with its nearly
