diences. Haweis Is completely English.
and not a few of his expressions and man
nerisms amuse the average American be-
cause OF their singularity. and theYt al
most led some OF his hearers to accuse
him OF afectatlon, or even snobbishness.
But through all these peculiarities his
genius shines forth. and his lectures We're
enjoyed as intellectual treats. His dis
cussion OF Music, the Art of the Age,'s
deserves all that has been said about It.
but his visit TO Seattle will be more men,
orable for the fact that here he first took
up the cudgels against Ingersoll. This
lecture was prepared In the course of two
days. at the suggestion Of Rev. D. c. Gar

Haweis' American tour. 1t differs from
other replies to the great agnostic in re-
stating tho position OF Christian believers
In the light OF recent investigations and
scientific discoveries, and abandoning the
untenable position of outworn creeds. 1t
IS by thus breaking away from the beaten
tracks OF the Christian controversialists
