THERE is n movement OH foot in
New York which may result in the
reproduction of King Solomon's tenn
pie in that city. The proposal in
the first place was simply to build
there the most magnificent syna-
gogue in the world. This project
has, however. grown and developed
n suggestion that all Judaism on
both sides Of the Atlantic contribute
and raise the building fund to $780,
100000. For this amount of money
IL is held that as phenomenal a struc-
ture could be erected as Solomon's
temple was in its day and genera
ton. The plans are in the hands OF
one OF the wealthiest Jewish congre-
cations in New York. and the site Of
the structure is already selected. 1t
will be built near Central park.

SENATOR ALLISON. of Iowa, is
quoted as saying that he believes
the situation in Washington to be
alarming owing to the conflict be-
tween the executive and the legisla-
tive branches of the government
which will tend to preclude such sue
cessful enactments as many relieve
any uncertainties that may exist.
Consequently the senator is anxious
to be in Washington and will make
haste back to the capital. II the
conditions are as bad as Senator
Allison believes them, and he real.

at this juncture, 1t is strange
that he should have left there Just mt
this time-even to make sure his re-
election to the seat he has held in
the upper branch for "a years.

The men who participated in this
conference believe that they accom-
plished their object; at any rate
there has been very little Harrison
talk since then. But, after all. Gen.
Harrison is no spring chicken as a
politician. The fact that he has au-
thorized his friends to engage rooms
for him at st. Louis during the con-
vention would indicate that he does
not fully agree with the gentlemen
who have relegated him to the rear.

 IL is not my turn to go to Hartford {; have no turn. My opinion is that no one has any right to claim the honor of representing his town in the legislature. What an idea of privilege and honor that is What has any man done that he should claim the honor of being sent to Hartford: Can any man more than do his duty as a good citizen? Can a man put a mortgage on the town by voting with the maj )rity2 Must any ore vote for me because thought him the best man who could be elected: Is it not every mans duty to vote for the best interests of the town and of the state? If have done anything for the good of the town have only done my duty as 8 citizen of the commonwealth. I cannot claim any privilege on that ground. I do not wish to put any one under obli- gation to vote for me. What can any man mean when he says: now it's my turn to have the honor of going to Hartford 7" I care not which party keep the honors of the people, if they are passed around in turn to those who make a trade of the sacred trust which can be a honor to one only as he is chosen because of some fitness or merit to represent the intelligence and conf- dence of the community, then I want no honor which comes to me, because I have helped to turn the party wheel of political fortunes.

CHORAL SERVICE AT ST JoHNs CHURCH
AN ELOQUENT AND IMPRESSIVE Dl
 COURSE BY REV q T. LINsLEY.

The choral service which was so much enjoyed in Trinity church, 8 week ago, was repeated in St Johns on Sunday evening. The church was nearly filled with 8 large and appreciative congrega, Cion. The musical part was well render ed by the choir. The rector, Rev o. o. Wright, nducted the service. The ser mon, which was a most interesting and eloquent discourse, delivered without notes, was preached by Rev G. T. Lins- ley of Trinity, from he text Titus 2:I2, Bleaching us that, denying uCgodliness and worldly luats, we should live sober y, righteously ard goIly in this present wOrld.' The sermon was on the three fold duty of man to God, to his neighbor and to himself. By nature man js placed in this three-fold relation from which fol- low these corresponding duties. This ap- pears in tie Bible, both in the Ten Com mandments, in the sermon on the mount and in the apostolic teaching, It is also recognized in the Book of Common Pray er in several places. Some men fail i4-C'I tti IiiNAi N'N tC'' fs 't '''N+s tAN x ing religion and the church and prayer. others fail in the moral relations to their fellow men, and others still are most weak in regard TO the control of their own appetires and passions. The only lawful standard is that of the Bible and the church. These choral servIces of the two pari=hes have proved SO successful, and have been spoken of with such general appreciation that tLey will probably be- come a permanent feature of the church life of thp town
