The Chancellor and the Professor.

There was an unexpectedly amusing
scene at the meeting of the Royal Soci-
ETY. of Literature on Wednesday after
noon. This society, which is composed
of elderly gentlemen who have, no
doubt, distinguished themselves in their
respective walks in life, but whose con-
nection with literature has to be as
sumed, had arranged for a quiet lee
ture on Condolences" by Professor
Max Muller, and OUT worthy Lord
Chancellor was in the chair. The Pro-
fessor related a few of the well-known
condolences between the early origins
of Christianity and ancient Oriental
religions, and showed that certain of
the aphorisrns of the New Testament
are identical with those in the Bud
dhist canon. All this is a commonplace

but to Lord Halsbury whose theology is

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Young Charles Kunze Owns Up to an
Old Act of Larceny.

Late last night Charles Kunze en-
tered the police station and asked per-
mission to telephone to his mother, VINO
resides at no in the alley between Sew
enth and Eighth, M and N streets
What do you want to telephone
for?" inquired officer Higgins, who is
acting as Night Sergeant.
'I want to give myself up for rob-
berry," returned Kunze, and then told
the story already known to the police.
A number of years ago John McIner-
ny came to town and went to work in
the railroad shops, lodging at the home
of Kunze's mother. Charles Kunze was
small boy then, and is only 10 years
old at the present time. About a year
ago McInerny left the shops and began
firing on a river steamboat, where he
contracted rheumatism, and having $40
in cash intended to take trip to the
mountains. Young Kunze was on
hand the night before he intended to
start, and succeeded in taking the
money from McInerny's room.
McInerny at once commenced
search for young Kunze, declaring his
intention of giving him a sound thrash
ing when he found him. Kunze, how
ever, had gone to San Francisco, where
he staid until the money was gone,
when he returned. Hearing that Nc
Inerny was looking for him, he con-
cluded it would be easier for him to face
the courts than his irate friend-rob
berry or no robbery.
He was very cool while telling his
story, and walked into his new quarters
as If ii were a matter of course.

fulIness of Christ
Mr.. Murdock stated that the primitive
church Of Christ was to be taken from
the earth for many hundred years. not
withstanding some of the present
churches claim to have received their
power direct from the Apostle. He cited
the audience to I. Tim. w., 1-3, Isaiah
XIV, 1-5, Acts Xxx, 29-30. Matt, xiv,
9, and Amos viii, Hip. He stated that
according to the prophet Daniel, God
was to restore to the earth his church or
kingdom, never more to be destroyed,
and that it would be built upon the same
foundation as the primitive; that 1t
would have the same offices, and that
the same gifts and blessings that fol-
lowed the believers anciently were TO be
with the believers in the last days.
