cooperation or Jne rengious leaders of
all lands.
An article in the Pulpit Treasury
of News of June, 1884. was as follows:
''Dr. Barrows' peculiar function is to
preach. 1t is at the altar his lips are
touched. His extraordinary gifts are
all arranged along the line of power
in spoken speech. After his homiletic
manner, which is always choice. is we'll
in hand, his mental movement is to-
ward powerful expression. His SEN
fences are polished shafts. His multi
farious contributions to the public
prints force themselves out into atten-
ton by way of the platform and the
pulpit, where all his work takes on
its peculiar animation. Some passages,
for example, in his famous sermon on
Eternity after being once felt by an
audience, can never be forgotten. Even
his voice, which is of rich and pc
culiarly resonant quality, contributes
toward magical effect. -

THE NEW GAME OF PUsHBALL.

certed shoulder-pushing of the players.
The game is played on regulation foot
ball field, but only 40 yards of the
"gridiron's" length is used. The ball
is placed on the center line and the
players group themselves on either side
Off The center plays directly behind
the ball, with a guard and tackle on
each side of him. Two forwards play
"of-side" to brush the opposing players
away from the ball, and the captain, or
full-back, stands at some distance be-
hind his men, directing the play by a
code of signals.
The pushing is done with the shoulder
entirely, and advances are made by sci
entific twisting from side to side. Ow-
ing to the rapidity of the game, which
requires much the same exertion as a
tug-of-war, the periods of play are
usually not more than two minutes in
length. When time is called the side
having advanced the ball into the 9TH
er's territory scores one or more
points. One point is scored if FIVE
yard advance has been made, two points
if ten-yard advance, and so on, until
finally, if a 2o-yard advance has been
made, thus carrying the ball across the
goal-line, it counts five points. Team
play and scientific manipulations are
the great requisites for pushball.
The only pushball in existence is the
one now in use at Harvard. It's owned
by Mr.. NJ. G. Crane, of Newton, Mass,
the inventor of the game, and was con-
structed at a cost of 5000.

On February 1, in latitude Sc degrees,

ran into open water again, having this
time spent only six days in the ice-pack.
On the 18th the aurora appeared,
stronger than ever saw it in the north.
1t rose from the southwest, stretching
in broad stream up toward the zenith
and down again toward the eastern
horizon. The phenomenon this time
had quite different appearance from
what we saw on October 20. 1t now

DIR. BARROWS' CAREER.
Some of His Noted Lectures, Ser
mons and Books.
Known the World Over as the Originator
of the Congress of Religions Held
in Connection with the Chi
cago Exposition.

Rev. John Henry Barrows, d. D.,
who has just resigned the pastorate OF
the First Presbyterian church at Chi
cago so that he may deliver the Haskell
course of lectures on Christianity in
India, was born July II, 1s47, in Medina,
Mich. His father, the late Prof. John
NJ. Barrows, came of New England
stock, a race of teachers, and was ed
ucated in the Troy Polytechnic insti-
tute and in 0berlin college. His mother,
Catherine Paine Moore, was also an
early graduate of 0berlin. In his col
lege life at Olivet, Mich, DR.. Barrows
was noted for his enthusiasm in the
study of literature, history and the
classics, and for his eager interest in
public and national questions. He was
graduated from Olivet in June, 1867,
in the same class with his brother,
Rev. Walter NJ. Barrows, d. D., after
wards an eminent secretary of the
American Home Mission society. He
studied theology at Yale, Union and An
dover seminaries. While at Union he
became a member of the Plymouth
church, Brooklyn, and was a rapt stu
dent of the pulpit oratory of Henry
Ward Beecher.
!" After two years and half of home
missionary and educational work in
Kansas he preached for year in the
First Congregational church of Spring
field, Ill. This experience was followed
by twelve months of travel in Great
Britain, Germany, France, Italy,
Greece, Egypt and the Holy Land. He
supplied for the time the American
chapel in Paris. Returning to America,
he became pastor of the Eliot Congre-
gational church, in Lawrence, Mass.
When temporarily driven out of the
church edifce DIR. Barrows displayed
ability to hold and sway the popular
multitude with strictly gospel theme
while preaching to great audiences in
the city hall in that large manufacture
ing city.
Since his coming to Chicago in Octo-
Der, 1881, 1900 members have been re-
ceived into the church and the chapel
connected with it. In 1888 occurred the
semi-centennial celebration of the
