It was announced that the Sunday school picnic will take place Tuesday at North Birmingham park. The train will leave Sterrett station at 10 o'clock. All the scholars of the Sunday school and all the congregation are invited to be present without expense. Evening pray CT wilI-be held at o'clock instead of $ o'clock.
 The subject of the sermon was the lift ing up of the serpent in the wilderness by Moses, and the analogy was drawn between that event and Christ upon the cross Rector Fitzsimons always speaks without manuscript, thus making his words more impressive. He said in sub stance that the Jews in the wilderness were suffering from a plague, when they were told that if they would look upon the serpent lifted up by Moses they would be healed Some theologians held that the physical act of looking cured them, while others held that the cure was effected by the faith shown in the look The stricken people, suffering with sores, found that their minds were taken off their bodily aftlictions while they looked upon the serpent. The advocates of faith cure and Christian science go too far. but there is an element of truth in their doctrine. The mind has great influence over the body. Those in great physical pain have been relieved by mu- sic Men wounded in battle have not been conscious of it until after victory was won. In the progress of human thought it is interesting to note that su- perstition is disappearing. The Greeks were superstitious. The great play of "Euripides," in which the human pas sions were displayed. is an instance of the power of superstition over the Greek mind. All motives were attributed to Jupiter. In the play of Hamlet" we see the predominance of the Anglo Saxon mind over the Grecian. It is good to look out from ourselves. All the un- friendly virtues are the result of self contempla tion cgotism, lconceit, sell fshness, are the result of thought dwell ing upon self. We are as we think. A person is nodded according to those ob- jects with which he associates. If we think upon Christ we become like unto Him We must look upon Him with the spiritual eye. not the physical. There is no virtue in gazing upon images.

Senator Gibson Scores Victory-Some Dis
 graceful Incidents.
 Easton, Md, June 9.-United States Senator Charles H. Gibson scored an ab- solute victory in the democratic primary elections in Talbot county yesterday. The county convention on Tuesday will nominate three men who are unalterably in favor of his reelection. The fight was a particularly bitter one all along the line, and in the Bay Hundred district two conflicts occurred which may lead to further trouble. A young man was challenged at Whitman, but he was finally allowed to vote. This so enra ged Ira K. Caulk, the anti-Gibson leader of the district, that he snatehed the ballot box from the judges and stamped it un- der foot. He then picked up a number of scattered ballots and tore them up. A general fight began, and a number of persons were knocked down.
 Another row occurred at Tilghmans island. It is stated that thirty tramps were imported from Anne Arundel county and voted. This act preeipitate1 a lively set-to, which ended only when the cry of murder rang out on the air. Mir Seymour, a Gibson man, was cut in the breast, but not seriously injured

Towards 5 Baccaleureate.

Yesterday morning the commencement sermon of Howard college was preached in the Ruhama Baptist church at East Lake by Dr. T. T. Eaton of Louisville, Ky. The church was packed to it's ut most opacity and numbers could not even gain entrance because of the inn mense crowd present. The sermon was a fitting and splendid one and was high ly enjoyed.
 The text was taken from II Cor inthians i, |; Paul. an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God
 Dr. Eaton spoke of the excellent Christian manhood of the Apostle Paul, and the admiration and reverence felt for him during all of the ages. He compared Paul with John, holding the latter as being like unto Shakespeare and Dante, while the former was like unto Confuscius and Mahomet His wonderful power to move mankind was remarkable. He also spoke of him as a Hebrew of Hebrews, and said that he was the greatest man of all ages. He next described very graphically the childhood of the Apostle Paul. and of his training and so on. He said that of all men in the world Paul deserved the most honor. He referred to the miracle of Christ in converting Paul as being the most wonderful except raising the dead. Then he talked about his devo- tion to the truth his tenderness and his love for mankind. He next touched upon his great faith and love for God.
 In short he held up the Apostle Paul as a model for young men of Howard college to follow.
 His sermon caused a great deal of com ment among the young men as one that would do those who heard it much good.
 The music was excellent being fur nished by the regular choir with MT. Claude Seals added

taken from the book of Samuel and was handled in a masterly maner.
 The afternoon service was held by Dr. T. T. Eaton of Louisville, Ky He took for his text Matt, VI 6: "Nerily I say unto you they shall have their reward" This sermon was delivered to packed house, consisting mostly of young peo- pie. pr. Eaton showed how the Lord re- warded those that followed in His foot steps and obeyed His will, and the pun ishment meted out to those who disobey- ed, Him.
 DQ Eaton is master of the English language; his voice is soothing and mag netic and he has a charm and grace of delivery which makes it a perfect de- light to listen to him.
 The evening service was conducted by Dr. Hale, who took for his subject. "The Man Forsaken of God"
 pr. Hale spoke feellngly of those who relied on themselves, and who departed from the ways of the Lord Though they nearly always came back to the tutors of their youth even as Saul asked the Witch of Endor for Samuel, yer, like Saul, are they forsaken of God who forsake Him.
 After the service two persons were baptized and received into the church.

 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: "I consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, a blessing for the poor, in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of its manufacture is perfect.
