Lieutenant Heller does not like the
present system of practice season." a
poor imitation of the rules of the reg
ular service. He believes, though, that
new men should first be introduced to
shoot at easy ranges and advanced as
they grow proficient.
Heller makes these recommendations
First, a system of monthly medal shoots
prescribed by general regulations; Sec
ond, the equipment of the guard with
first-class rifles; third, practice should
be held at increased distances; the in
creased distances between lines of battle
in modern warfare make this impera-
tive; fourth, practice should be held at
silhouette targets; fifth, the present
method of compelling a man to make
the same percentage score in June and
September should be abolished.

Spain's Wretched Troops

An EngliDa journalist who recently
found himself in Barcelona, sends an
account of the condition of the latest
Spanish levies ordered to Cuba. He
says: 'The condition of these men is
wretched beyond description. Not only
are their clothes of the poorest material,
as much like sackcloth as anything, but
they are altogether untitled for the eli
mate of the West Indies. So badly made
are their uniforms that the seams came
undone at the first physical exertion,
and, as there are practically no tailors
with the troops. the rents have to be
made good by the soldiers themselves.
"All the depots have been depleted of
war stores, and at least 300 men have
recently been sent to Cuba without arms
in the belief that weapons and ammuni-
tion would be found for them by capture
from the insurgents. Never We're there
such depressing scenes as those wit
messed at the embarkation of the troops
The soldiers themselves were quite sui
len and their relatives We're confident
that they We're going to their death as
surely as felon ON his way to the scat

The Sun reporter at Madrid says there
is not the slightest doubt that the treas
ury is in a woeful state despite the af-
fected cheerfulness of the ministers
There has been much coming and going
of financiers to and from the Bank of
Spain, and this, coupled with the disap-
pearance of two important officers of
the treasury department, is considered
warrant for the belief that a large finan-
cial operation is impending. Money
must be found somewhere to pay for
arms and ammunition. Several small
gunboats have been ordered, mainly in

THE CATHEDRAL
Father humans Sermon OF the Necessity for
Humility

At the last mass at the Cathedral yes
terday, Rev. Joseph Nunan delivered
the sermon. Taking for his text the
passage from Luke, HE that humbleth
himself shall be exalted, and he that eX-
alteth himself shall be humbled."
The father spoke of the nature and
necessity of humility and the strong mo-
tives that should prompt us to exercise
1t. In these days of ours, he said. when
ambition scars so high, when men strive
for wealth, for power or lofty position,
numbers have come to look upon hu-
mility as frivolous virtue, as an idle
and empty virtue, as virtue that is
fit and becoming only to the poor and
the lowly. But the ever living voice of
Christ forcibly declares that it is emf
nently. necessary and absolutely indis-
pensable for the successful working out
of our eternal salvation.
What is Christian humility? In what
does 1t consist? Often taking the ap-
pearance for the reality, the shadow for
the substance, many imagine that hu-
mility consists in the use of plain clothes,
in having the head bowed low upon the
breast, in speaking in mild and gentle
voice. in habitually depreciating ones
self. These often may be indications
of humility, yet they can be, and often
are, the outward manifestations of a
secret pride. Or 1t may be pride itself
decked out in the habiliments of hu-
mility..
Christian humility consists of an in
Innate knowledge of our own littleness,
of a close acquaintanceship with our
own nothingness. 1t scorns pride and it's
trappings 1t refers every thing to the
honor and glory Of God. 1t is sunk deep
into the soil of the human heart. and
that 1t may grow and blossom 1t should
be fed with the thoughts of our own
nothingness.
Like evec'y other virtue, humility ad-
mits of a greater or lesser degree of
perfection. The practice of the highest
degree of humility is not precept The
humility that is incumbent on every
Christian demands these requisites. 1t
should be solid, deep and true. 1t should
be fully cognizant Of our own nothing
ness. It should not make vain boast
of the blessings that God has bestowed
IN us. 1t should suffer patiently and re-
Agnedly the taunts and biting remarks
Of men.
Christian humility Is not virtue Of
pure counsel, but one that is absolutely
necessary. Without 1t there can be no

Thus 1t is seen that this is not the first
time this precious trio have been in
trouble. Jones was held on Saturday for
trial in the superior court under bonds
of $4,000, and now it is McCarthy's turn.
He is an ex-prizefighter and has beea
arrested before in connection with safe
cracking jobs. Stewart, for whom the
strong arm of the law is reaching, has
kept out of the way since he left this
city. Descriptions of the man have been
forwarded all over the country. and the
Pinkertons are also on the lookout for
him. He is well known to them, and It
seems but a question of time until he
is discovered and brought to book.
Where Stevens is is uncertain, but he Is
said to have been seen in Mexico.
While there may have been others
concerned in the attempted robbery,
and probably were. the four men men

TIE Y. M. 6. A.
Mems Meeting Addressed by the Rev. nr.
Bartlett

Nseess"B Noo'ssSsS - WV NV ''''
Bartlett
Rev. Dana c. Bartlett, pastor Of Beth
lehem Congregational church, addressed
the Y. M. c. A. mems meeting at 3
o'clock yesterday, choosing as his text
the words found in James H., %: "Abra-
ham was called the friend of God"
The speaker said that in the middle
ages there arose in Germany a band OF
men calling themselves the friends OF
God. They sought to learn from the Bible
and to cultivate in their lives, as far as
possible, the will of God. Jesus says:
"Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever
I command you" We are necessarily
social beings. bound together by vari-
Gus ties. We must choose our compan-
ions. We cannot always choose our ac-
quaintances, but we can choose those
we wish for our companions. what Is
our choice in this respect. They make
part of what we are. We want pure,
sweet memories, SO we must choose
companions whose influence upon our
lives will tend to goodness and purity.
There is no friendship so true as that
based on doing Gods will. Gods side
is always the same. 10! / am with you
Away" Christ said. He wants to bring
every one of us into close relationship
with himself. AS friends of God, what
a privilege to introduce others to him:
The condition Of friendship with God is
doing his will. 1t is not in great things
always that he speaks. Wesley and
Whitfield could see vast concourses of
people moved by their presentation Of
Gods word, but it was left to John How
ard to go down into prisons and carry
the light of sympathy and proclaim
spiritual freedom to those confined
there. You will do great work if you
lift up one who has fallen deep down
in sin and make that one friend Of
God. If we have come into close touch
with God, we have been changed and
transformed, and then we are sent out
to seek some one who has never had this
life

BAND CONCERT AT WESTLAKH
Large Crowds in Attendance at All the Parks
Yesterday

IeStcfuay
The largest crowd for months turned
out yesterday at Westlake park to lis
ten to an excellent program of popular
and classical music by the Seventh reg
iment band. There was not vacant
seat to be found, and hundreds lined
the walks in the vicinity of the grand
stand. On the Seventh street side there
was a crush of carriages, the line ex-
tending far up toward the entrance of
the driveway. That the music was en-
joyed was evidenced by the applause
accorded, and several encores were de-
manded. The program was as follows:
Grand March, Majestic Harmony
r. Wagner
valse, La Stella D'Amore"-W. A.
Philips.
Spring Song-Mendelsshon
Selection from "Freischuetz"-Webe
Caprice, "Zanzibar'-J. F. Glider.

Finale. FAIRY Bells Galop"-Lumbye.
East Side park also had large crowd
in attendance, Notwithstanding the fact
that there was no special attraction af-
forded. During the summer there has
been a paucity of visitors, even on Sun
day, nearly every one seeming to pre-
fer the beaches. Now that the seaside

steps will at once be taken to straighten
out the trouble growing out of Mrs. De
Lisle's charge against Mrs. Smith OF
having extracted $500 from bag con-
tanning something over $4,000, and which
had been temporarily left in her charge.
Mrs. Smith has had Mrs. De Lisle ar
rested on a charge of having made
threats against her, and the hearing OF
this matter will come up in the city
Justices court today.
Mrs. De Lisle has taken no steps while
awaiting the arrival of her husband,
who, as stated, will arrive today.
