CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR.
Topic For the Week beginning Feb. 2
Comment by Rev. =. II. Doyle.

Topro.-Iaborars together with God.-I Cor.
iii, 6-23. (Christian En1cavor day.
This topic is q very appropriate one
for the fifteenth anniversary of tho ori-
gin Of the Christian Endeavor move
ment. Fifteen years ago there were two
societies and O. members. Today there
are Al 900 societies, with membership
of 2, 1000, 600. Such marvellous growth
can only be accounted for by aclcnowl-
edging the hand of God TO have been in
tho origin and propagation Of this great
movement. Yot God used the hands Of
men to carry forward His work. II has
been a divine human movement. The
hand Of God and the hand Of man were
both in IL. In this great movement, as
in all similar ones, God and man work
ed together as colaborers.
Men must always be "laborers togeth-
er with God" il their work is success
full. This is the fact that Paul empha-
sizes in the topical reference. IL is n fact
that the most successful Christian work
ers have always admitted and empha-
sized. Nothing testiiies more strongly TO
the eminent Christian character of Rev.
Francis Il. Clark, ID. D., the special CO.
laborer used by God in this great move
ment, than the fact that he has always
recognized the hand Of God in the move
ment and has emphasized that fact. In
this respect we should all emulate the
example Of the great apostle and the
leader Of this wonderful young peoples s
movement. II we arc successful in our
labors, we should attribute it to God,
for it is not by might nor by power that
the Lords work is done, but by His
Spirit. Paul may plant, Apollos may
water, but God alone can give the in.
crease mot unto us, not unto us, but
unto Thee, o Lord, be honor and
glory" should be our motto in all the
successes of life,
Although God is the principal and
necessary worker, still mans work is
also necessary and important. The
planting and the watering must be
done in order that by the blessing of
God the increase may come. We should
not think because God is tho important
one in spiritual work that we can be
careless and indifferent.
The fact that we are "laborers to-
gether with Cod should increase our
zeal and earnestness. What an honor to
be colaborer with God 1t means sue
cess, for God never fails. 1t means fell
lowship and partnership with the King
Of Kings and Lord of Lords. 1t means
encouragement, reward, happiness and
usefulness. Let us strive thon, stimulat-
ed by the successes Of the past, to go
forward in the future, still trusting in
God, in such way that though colabor-
ers with God we shall be workmen who
need not be ashamed

Legal Punning.

We do not mean punning which is le-
gal-for there is no pun which the law
authorizes-but punning by members Of
the profession which calls itself legal.
1t is credited by The Green Bag to Vice
Chancellor Robertson of New York.
The chancellor was listening patiently
Mt chambers to an argumentative con-
flict over the amount of fee claimed
by counsel. At the close Of the con-
tention, he remarked:
"Let me have your papers and the
affidavits of the expert, and I will sec
what is feasible as TO the fee, and will
endeavor to see my way to Just solu-
tion between the contention ON the one
side that the fee is a phenomenal one
and on the other side that there should
not be nominal fee."

rider who has established a new record
for "a hours by riding 533 miles 1'463

Only nine contestants started IN the

fore it's completion. A.V Linton, Droth-
er of Tom Linton, who rode thirty

competitor and did some meritorious
work during the first quarter of the
ride. Up to the sixth hour ne led the

A Free Coinage Club of Ninety
Five Members.
Organized at Winfield With
Hot Speeches.
CANNOT STAND GOLD.
LELAND and Greer Had Led Them
to Love Silver.
Infection So Deep it Cannot Now
Be Eradicated.
CANNOT STAND GOLD.

Winfield, July 18.-The Winfield Free
Silver Coinage club of So members,
mostly Republicans, organized Thurs
day night with W. H. Grow as presi-
dent.
In his speech Of acceptance the chair
man said he had been a lifelong Repub-
iican and had worked hard and con-
scientiously for the success of the
party, believing the principles of gov
eminent it advocated to be to the best
interest of all the people, but now his
party had left him and he felt it his
duty to condemn the st. Louis platform
and rebuke its makers. He said he
had been through the sweat mill dur
ing the last few years and thought the
conspiracy of 1873 was the cause.
Short speeches followed. one Of the
best being by J. W. O'Connor.
He resented in no uncertain terms the
idea of any other party stealing the
credit due the Republican party. He
took the advantage of this occasion to
say that he was still a Republican. He
had not left the party, but the party
had left him and he was waiting for it
to come back. In 1892, he said, Ed
Greer and Cy Leland attended the
state convention at Topeka. When they
went home they told him and Jim
for silver. Rimetallism was the only
hope of the party. He and Mr.. Bethel
did as directed. In 1896 Ed Greer and
Cy Leland attended the national con
vention at St. Louis and when they got
home they told him and Jim Bethel
they must turn gold bug. 1t was the
only hope for the party, and right then
he kicked over the traces. The infec-
ton had got in its work too deep to
be eradicated so easily.
Dr. Emory was called next He said
he had always been a Republican and
was a Republican yet. but not St
Louis Republican He had about all
of Wall street and Lombard street pol
itics he wanted and he thought the
masses of the people had, too. He want
ed to begin at the legisla ture and from
that on up to president vote only for
men pledged to the cause of silver. At
tending this meeting was a little like
going to a funeral to him and his heart
strings bled when the ties of a lifetime
We're severed by his party in leaving
him at St. Louis.
Colonel Jaquihs, another Republican,
said he was heartily in favor of this
movement and his voice had the clarion
ring of sincerity. This was business,
he said, and not politics. The encroach-
ments of gold bugism, he said, should
be stopped. 1t had been gradually
creeping west, substituting the press and
enslaving the people. For twenty
years the west had been ignored by the
east and he thought it was time for the
worm to turn
Permanent officers We're chosen and

TO RIDE ROCKET.
A Michigan Man Proposes to Shoot
Himself Up Into the Air.

Houghton, Mich, July 1S.-Prof. W.
w. McEwen, of Jackson, proposes to
revolutionize aeronautics by using an
immense rocket for his ascensions, in
stead of the time worn balloon.
Various models have been expert
mented with and a great deal of care
full test work done with various ma
teriaIs and different forms Of the rock
ct. At last, a model has been produced
which has made three highly success
full aScenSionS, and McEWen has be-
gun work in Chicago upon the so foot
rocket of aluminium, phosphor-b bronze
ond other things, which is to carry
him two miles into the air in fewer
seconds by many than ever mortal man
has ever before traversed that distance
on earth or through the atmosphere.
Prof. McEzWen says there will be no
stick to this gigantic cloud piercer, but
that otherwise, the general form of the
ordinary rocket will be retained. The
various devices for the propulsion Of
the monster, the steadying of its long
flight through the air, the provision of
air to its human occupant and the me-
chanical filling of the parachute at the
crucial second when the rocket has
reached its highest flight and would
otherwise fall to earth at a rate fatal
to the rider, all these will be thorough

tries
