method makes its way to bring
strength and comfort. The essential
historic framework around which the
literature of the Bible faStenS itself
has found fresh and indubitable proof.
The interviewer net work of the his
tory of Egypt and Chaldea has not
alone been reinforced by hieroglyphics.
by Inscriptions from the Euphrates,
and the manners and customs of Pal

and of Persia at the close of the He
brew kingdom are absolutely neces-
sary to explain Hebrew law and re-
ligion. Let who will, trouble them
selves with theological explanations OF
myths and legends which lie at the

people. The new historical science
has demonstrated the essentials of He

The new conception of society is
bringing in also a wider conception of
sin. The Interviewing of the indi-
vidual destiny with the social order
shows it to be necessary conception
worthy both of God and man, that if
any one is to be saved, the whole race
must be redeemed. The new
DOCTRINE OF ALTRAISM
teaches the essential validity of vicar
ious suffering and reveals in the
method of Jesus Christ the only way
to human salvation. The doctrine of
brotherhood is not the dream of an
enthusiast, but it is in some final form
a scientific and social necessity
Religion therefore has its living roots
in the living world. 1t is not a dead
form, or a worn out recollection, OH
a cut and dried dogma; it is aradiant
and present reality: 1t belongs to the
new time; it finds its richest support
in the mightiest discoveries of our g5n-
Grafton. The devotion that is to be,
will not be nursed at the breast of ig-
norance. 1t will draw an abundant
life from the most vital knowledge.
The deepest knowledge will minister
to the hottest reverence.
Nor does this mean that thu time can
ever come when religion will be merely
demonstra ted, and so reduced to rules
and formulas. There is an infinite ele-
ment in man which continually calls
to the great deeps beyond time and
sense in the infinite being of God.
There is an infinite element in the
world because it is the living garment
of God. And time is not long enough,
nor strength great enough to hunt
down all its mystery. Worship, like
art, will always use the imagination
and the heart Religion has in it the
joy and depth of eternity, but the es-
sential facts of religion as revealed to
us in human history are the object of
science, and their assurance is the
blessedness and comfort of the human
reason.

AN OLD MAN INJURED.
Struck by the Pilot of an Engine
While on Duty.

John Ward, an old man of seventy
one, and fiagman at the Duke street
crossing of the Milwaukee Short Line,
was struck by a locomotive at l0:45
a. m. yesterday and severely injured.
Two of his ribs on the left side were
fractured, and he received three sup
CRITICAL scalp wounds, together with
various bruises. Whether he was in
jured internally is not yet apparent.
Despite the severe shock Of such an
accident to one of his advanced age,
Ward was resting quietly last night at
the city hospital. The physicians in at
tendance have strong hopes of his re-
covery.
Ward had been giving the signal to
announce the approach of one train
when, carelessly and apparently with
out reason, he stepped in front of an
other freight train. He was only close
enough to be struck by the side of the
pilot, which fortunately cast him clear
Of the track. He was at once removed
to the city hospital.
The injured man resides at 236 West
Fifth street. He has three sons in this

There is a possibility, too, that a

This is all the more likely when it is

TOM DOWNS, FUNERAL.

tend the Ceremonies.
Thomas Downs was buried yesterday
afternoon at Calvary cemetery. At 2
O'Clock funeral services We're held at
st. Joseph's church, and the cortege
that followed the hearse to the ceme-
terry showed that the man who had
fallen to his death in Chicago pos
sessed many friends in ST. Paul, who
turned out to pay the last tribute of
respect.
Fuller details of the accident which
caused Mr. Downs death are contained
in this clipping from the Chicago
Tribune:
Thomas Downs looked like a child
as ne hugged the lofty axle of the Fer
rig pulley.
Downs was the most expert of all
the sailors and riggers who are en-
pIoyed to bolt the big beams and tie
Sne cross rods on the big machine.
him as he carefully made his way
along the axle to the pulley, 1873 feet
above the ground. The task was diff
fcult and dangerous.
Men almost stopped breathing as
they watched him creep along the steel
shaft and finally lie down on its cold
smooth surface. The workmen felt
easier When at length he stopped to
reach out and catch the rope which
had been placed about the axle for his
support while he rugged the pulley
Then he began his perilous task. The
pulley hung at least one foot below the
axle. Downs leaned forward. With his
right hand he slowly worked the rope
through the sheave. Two inches more
and the work would be done Downs
bent farther forward. To those below
1t seemed as though he was fiat on
the huge piece of steel.
The rope just appeared through the
pulley when Downs screamed. An in
slant later his body slid off the axle
Its weight jerked hand loose from the
supporting rope and the sailor
flashed headlong down to the timber
covered ground.
His fellow workmen heard the scream
and stood motionless as statues as
they watched him dive to death He
fell near some of the iron workers, and
they saw his chest heave twice
He was dead before he struck the
ground" said one of them, STOPPING
over the battered form. An examina-
ton showed that his neck, some of his
ribs, both arms and one of his legs
were broken.
The accident unnerved the men, and
they clambered down to solid ground
and did no more work Most of them
had worked with Tom for years, and
he was popular with them. He was a
single man, thirty years old His home
was in st. Paul, where a married sis
ter is living. He was one of the crew
that erected the Ferris wheel in Mid
way plaiSance.

FAULTS OF HEARING.
Synopsis of an Interesting Ser
mon by Rev. j. w. ConIey.


mon by Rev. j. w. COnIey.
"He that hath ears to hear, let him
hear" was the text from which Rev.
J. W. Conley, preached at the First
Baptist church yesterday morning, the
words being taken from Matthew XII, 5.
There are two utterances of Jesus,
spoken in connection with the use of
this text elsewhere, which he wishes
to take as the divisions of the sermon
The first is found in Mark iv., "a.
Take heed what We hear" The ear
is the avenue to the soul and our
character is very largely dependent
upon what we admit to the soul
through this avenue; what we are to-
day is very largely the result of what
we have heard. These avenues have
been open all through the years and
what has entered the soul through
them has left its impress there
If you do not want to hear scandals,
avoid the scandalmongers. If we
want to hear the voice of praise and
love, of friendship, and words of en-
couragement and inspiration, we can
find them. It is for us to choose
whether we will hear Gods name hon
ored or used in profanity or ridicule.
To very large extent we can hear
what we want to hear. It is true, L
know, that many in daily life are com
PEELED to hear profanity and soothing
and jesting at religious things, but
none the less it is true also that we
will determine very largely what we
will hear. Many say, L let these
things come in at one ear and out of
the other but you cannot do it, they
will leave a sediment behind, and these
vile things that have entered through
the ear will come up again and again.
to wound us and haunt us and drag
us down. But the man who works in
the shop alongside of the profane man
can have his mind so absorbed with
other things that the door is shut to
his neighbours profanity, and then, too,
it is within our power to create an at
mosphere around ourselves. Physical
hearing is a matter of atmosphere, and
what we hear is largely determined by
the moral atmosphere we make around
us. How is it that a. pure, noble-mind-
ed woman scarcely ever hears an oath
or an unclean word? Why, in her
presence, is the voice Of profanity
hushed? It is because of the atmos-
phere with which she is surrounded
herself. There Is a great power in a
Cody life, and If in our associations
in life we do not create an atmosphere
that will stif1e uncleanness and profan-

GERMANS BIG DAY
Continued From First Page.

Luxemburgers were there also in mass
and various other societies, which base
their existence upon their German
affiliations. The marshals handled the
vast crowd in splendid manner, and
once the order was given to march
there was no hitch in the forward
movement, until the tracks on West
Seventh street were reached, where a
short halt was made to give the parad-
ers an opportunity for a few mo-
ments' rest. Then the march was re-
sumed to the park, where the column
soon arrived.
1t was a conspicuous fact that no
where did the colors of Germany wave
but what they were side by side with
