PRAYER WITHOUT WORDS.
Rev. DIR. Sprague'~ Second Sermon
at All Souls

at All Souls.
Prayer without words was the sub
ject of very interesting sermon deIiv-
cred by Rev. Leslie W. sprague of San
Francisco yesterday morning at All Souls
Church, corner of Fourteenth and l. streets
northwest.
II was the third of Il series of sermons
by Rev. DR.. SpraGue, and. as Were the
the others, was attended by large con-
gregatcn. His text was from tEe Gospel
OF st. Matthew, sixth chapter.
In developing his subject Rev. DIR.
Sprague said that one of the great dangers
TO be avoided was in nIistaking the for
nialities OF prayer for sincere prayer.
There is danger even greater than this, for
there are too many who even forget the
formality and live on through life without
thought of God.
All, he said, who have given serious
thought TO the lfe OF the hereafter know
and feel that there is a demand for con-
gtant sincere prayer. Ii is only by prayer
that the Christian can Commune with his
Creator and make known his wants. DO
not put up treasures on earth, but in heaven
for where the treasure IL there also will be
ghc heart.
Prayer, according TO the teachings of
Jesus Christ, is an clement OF the heart
itself ard not mere formality. a repe-
titiUn of words.
continuing, tue speaker SAID all or us
know too well tie impussibility to give
expression TO the secret, sincere thoughts
which arise in the Christian heart. They
are like the blending of the tints of the
rainbow. the song or the wild bird, or
the sweetest harmonies of music. They
can be felt ard inspire us. but no matter
how We try, no matter what language we
use. we fail to give fun expression to
our thoughts or sensations on such Occa-
sions.
Tue Rev. C. j. K. Jones of Louisville,
KY. will preach at III Souls Church next
Sabbath.
Rev. DR.. Sprague will go to Louisville.
KY. this week and remain there for a
month, after which he will return here
and preach at All Souls Church again.

yesterday afternoon.
President Whitman chose as his topic.
The Three Ways of Living He said
that the first Of these was the cynical
way. which took its origin from the teach
ings of Diogenes. and which taught indie
pcndence as the first object in life. But
the doctrine of independence soon became
one OF Indifference, and was carried Ia an
extreme.
The second manner of living was that
of the oppor;unist. which arose from
French politics. and consisted principally
of watching In what direction the wind
blew. and trimming ship accordingly.
The third was the manly way. combin-
ing the best elements OF both cynicism and
opportunism. being independent in the
trIe sense of the word and taking ad-
vantage OF opportunity for the best re-
suits to BE- derived.

A Serious Situation.

The governor of Louisiana is being
urged to declare martial law on the levee
at New Orleans. Those who advise that
end the trouble that now blocks the COM
merce of that city.
The screwmen and longshoremen are
sullen and silent. They make no offer
to settle the differences between them and
the merchants and ship agents. The mer-
chants and ship agents are firm in the
position they have taken, and they have
refused to subscribe any more money for
the support of the military. and the state
appropriation for that purpose is ex-
hausted. What is the governor to do?
The cost OF supporting the military COM
panies needed to preserve order on the
levee is about $1,000 a day. The members
of the military companies could not afford
to remain away from their places of
business much longer even If there were
an abundance of money for their expenses
while In service. Already the employers
of many of them are threatening to dis
charge them unless they return imme-
diately to their duties. But If the military
should be withdrawn before a settlement
of the labor troubles is reached it is be-
lieved rioting would begin again. The
black longshoremen would not be per-
mitted TO work; and the white screwmen
and longshoremen would not return to
work unless permitted to dictate the terms
upon which work should be, resumed.
The situation calls for caution, judg
ment. firmness and a good deal of ability.
Gov. Foster has an opportunity to make
quite reputation for himself. If he
brings about a settlement OF the troubles
he will be entitled to a great deal Of
credit from the people of New Orleans and
Of the state.

The Rise In Cotton.

Has the rise In the price of cotton come
to stay, or is it a mere incident of spec
ulation? That Is quite an important ques-
tion and one that may have considerable
influence on the volume of this years crop.
No one of course is in a position to say
whether the price will continue to adj
vance or will drop back to 5 cents a
pound.
One opinion, and there is good reason
for thinking it is a sound one, is that
the cause of the rise is the belief that
this years crop will be considerably
smaller than the one that is now about
marketed. Assuming that this opinion
is correct the cotton planters should hold
tenaciously to the policy that they seem
inclined to adopt, namely. to reduce the
cotton acreage. They should reduce it
fully one-hfth If they should do that it is
quite certain that the price of cotton next
year would be much nearer 10 cents than
cents. There is money in cotton at s
cents. or even Z cents pound, but there
Is none at cents.
The price Of cotton is now cents for
middling. The advance has been quite
rapid and altogether unexpected. 1t has
taken place in the face of large receipts
at the ports. There has as yet, been no
great increase in the demand for cotton
goods, though an increase is expected.
There is not much reason to doubt, there
fore, that the increase Is based upon the
belief that the crop of this year will be
considerably smaller than that of last
year. The cotton growers would make a
great mistake If they should increase in
stead of reducing their acreage in the
expectation that the price of cotton will
be much better than it has been during
the greater part Of the period of market
ing last years crop. They should adhere
tenaciously to the reduced acreage theory
and give more thought than ever before
to the production of food crops. If they
do that the chances are they will find
themselves much better off financially a:
the end Of another year than they have
been at any time since the close OF the
civil war
