The Rev W. II. Lewis spoke at the
rooms OF the United Labor League yester-
dcy afternoon on tho complaint Of working
men. The working people. he said had
much 10 complain about, but much that
they complained Of was their own fault
II %as a mistake for them to think that be-
cause a man was rich he was their enemy.
Many men who were rich sympathi2cd with
working people and would help them 10

stions act. This was uae worklngmen's
own fault. as they are in the majority and
could elect men 10 suit themselves. 1t was
true that the system Of monopoly was OPP
pressiye TO poor people. He did not see
how It could be prevented outy by the spirit
of Christianity.
Finally. lie said that all complaints and
all difficulties that confronted the working
people Cun be solved by the application of
the teaching of Christ. This would make
man love God and love man. This would
bring about Justice between man and man.
1t would make the monopolist 10 justice to
those compelled to buy from him; II would
make the employer do what Was right be-
tween man and man. 1t would make all
mankind into common brotherhood.

Church NYnrk Amnnr Lows.

Last evening the Rev. IT. M. Muuson, of
Emmanuel Church, New Castle, spoke to
his congregation about Church work among
the Jews. Among other things he said:
Tho Jews were Of old Gods chosen peo-
pie. Chosen warriors are such as are
picked out as the most valiant or best
adapted to some special or momentuus en-
terprise. The Hebrew nation was choseh.
singled out from all other nations, for an
honorable service. God set them arZrt to
receive His word, and preserve us wor-
ship. To them was inlrusted Che sacred
deposit OF truth To be transmitted down the
ages. Honoreu they were above all other
nations in that our Lord chose TO come of
them. Many false ideas prevail greatly to
their injury. For ages the Jews activity
was confined within narrow bounds, as
dealing In clothes and handling money.
but rs soon as other walks of life were
opened to him he took prominent place.
No Christian scholar Tan forget that the
great Church historian NeGnder was a con-
yertcd Jew. and we recall the fact that
Jew made Queen Victoria Empress of In
dia. Lately one of our great political par
ties bad jew for its chairman of the Ma
tional Committee. on the stage the Jew
has obtained pre-emincnce. the trageli-
emo Rachel was Jewess. In music we
find such Jewish names as Rosslni Meyer
beer and Mendelssohn. In philosophy they
have been equally distinguished. Maimoni-
des and Spinoza were Hebrews. The Jews
are the bankers of the world aud have the
destiny OF peace and war in their hands,
They are an pristocratlc people; a Jew
tramp. drunkard or heggar is never seen
They are the purest-blooded people in
the world; their ancestors were civilized
and had correct knowledge of God. when
the progontors Of the Anglo-Saxon race
were roaming the forests and worshiplng
Thor and Wooden and all tie other heather
gods and gnddtsses. We are not consistent
In our work for the conversion of the
world when we neglect the Jew. and do so
much for inferior races with whom We are
not in touch, and to whom We are not in
apbtcd,
Without question It is our duty to seek
the salvation of all riAnkind yet In our
work we have strangely overlooked the
claitns of that splendid nation. tho kins-

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS.
The Senate Will Probably Reopen
81 the Hawaiian Question,
AND BRING OUT MANY SPEECHES.

The House Leaders Hope to Secure n Vote
day, but There Is No Assurance That They
VIII be Successful. .s.... .."
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The senate will
probably devote tho week largely to tho
discussion q che diplomatic and consular
appropriation bill, and the greater num-
ber of the speeches will he based upon the
financial situation and tho senate amend
ment for the construction of cable to tho
Hawaiian islands, which will In all prob
ability reopen the entire Hawaiian ques-
tion.
The District Of Columbia bill will be
disposed of before adjournment today by
agreement.
Senator Allen expects to address the
senate tomorrow on his resolution for tho
investigation of the Alabama elections,
and 1t Ia possible that the resolution may
call ont other speeches. They are liable to
be cut short, however, by the calling up
OF the diploma bill, with its Hawaiian
amendment, and the possibility of many
speeches on the subject.
a contest is likely between the friends
of the bankruptcy, pooling and territorial
bill for the time which may be available
when the appropriations and the Allen
resolutions are not under consideration,
but this will probably depend upon
whether the Democratic steering commit
tee shall find itself able to agree upon
recommendation The supporters Of tho
bankruptcy bill are still determined that
It shall hold its place il possible, while the
supporters of the pooling bill nre Just ns
eager to displacc it If they find an oppor-
tunity. The probabilities now are, how
ever, that but littls If any tino will be
given TO either of these bills during the
week.
1t is possible that the finance committee
may bring III u report on some Of the ilnan-
cial or currency bills before it tomorrow,
and If IL should do su the report mHy have
the effect of adding zest to the debate on
this question. The latter half of tue
Saturday session will be devoted to culo-
giles on the late senator Stockbrideo.
The question Of legislation for the relief
of the treasury will be again debated in
the house this week. Tho administration
financial bill introduced in connection
with the presidents special message as
ancnded by tho committee on banking
and currency, will bc called up tomorrow,
and according to the present program will
b. debated for three days. 1t Is not the
present intention to bring iu special
order to close the debate and bring tho
measure to n vote when the bill Is brought
up, but to allow the debate to run for a
day or two before bringing in the order

beside the members of the choir. were
the Rev. l.. Marks. ID. D.. the Rev. Merritt
Iluiburd. D. D., the Rev. T. e. Terry. and
the Rev. S. b. Meeser. the preacher OF the
day. Mr.. Meeser chose for the text Of his
sermon:
And the Lord answered me, and said,
write the vision. and make It plain upon
tables, that he may run that readeth it,
Habakkuk II, ..
During his sermon he spoke in substance
as follows The Bible is at once the sim
plest and profoundest book that men read.
1t is the simplest because men have the
help of God to understand 1t. 1t is the pro-
foundest book because it reveals the mys-
terry OF God and man in the relation of
father and son.
The preacher described mans approach
to God and heaven under the figure of Bum
yons pilgrlm--as one burdened with load
of sin of which God alone could relieve him.
To such whose hearts want love the Bible
brings Jesus with his forgiyng love. Many
men whose hearts are hungering for love
do not go to God because they have been
taught that He Is terrible in justice that He
is treasurng up hate against them others
imagine that they can work out their own
salvation. These men are vainly attempt
ing TO pay u moral debt, and to them the
Bible brings the sacrifice for sin. They have
been chasing their own shadows, having
been walking away from the light. What
tho Bible does for such men is to turn their
faces To the light.
Telling men from whence man comes and
whence he goeth the Bible also tells him
what kind Of person he will find at the
end Of his journey. 1t shows him God as a
Divine Father.

,ir Terry a, ,u,,,se,,-o,s.

The Rev r. r. Terry of st. Paul's NJ. L.
Church. in the course Of his sermon last
night on "Amust uieGts Viewed From
Methodist Standpoint" condemned the col
lego game of foot ball and said 1t bad gem
Grated into Il piece OF brutality. He said in
part: Amusemeuts are right ard proper.
Every profession is encouraged. Necessity
for amusement grows out of nature. Labor
wears out the system aud there must be
some rest. God IN the beginning provided
for six days of work and one for rest. The
first thought ii person has is of amu8omcnt.
This thought is put in the mind OF little
children. Parents try to amuse and buy
toys for them. IL is sin for a man to re-
fuse to alternate pleasure with work
No standard of allowable amusement can
b. set. Man shoul consider his physical.
intellectual, moral and financial condition
in life. Some antisemcnts are the same as
food and others like Intoxicating liquor
which stimulates for time The sin is in
the abuse of what properly conducted
would not be wrong. Penple do not know
where to stop. They want amusement every
where. even in church, There are plenty
OF Christian people who Will not go to
church unless they can he entertained.
The demand for amusement is carried
sometimes to the extreme of brutality. Mr..
Terry then referred to the shooting matches
where men shoot at live birds and OF the
prize ring, Foot bait he said was not a bit
better than the prize ring. 1t may be lit
tie more respectable. The records from 1891
to 1895 he said, showed that 437 had been
killed or injured for life, He referred to tho
Harvard aud Yale game. -
Christian denominations have their own
ideas Of amusenents that are right. Tie
Catholics and Episcopalians say that to in
dulse in certain amuaeinents during Lent
is not right. The Mrthodists think that if
they are not proper in Lent they are not
right any time. Some amusements cause
persons to neglect their duty, yet we should
have pleasure and amusement. Next Sun
