The PRESIDENT AT CHURCH
Accompanied by Mrs. Mckinley, He
Attends the Metropolitan.
Both Much Interested in the Elo-
quent Sermon of the Pastor, Rev.
Or. Hugh Johnston.

The Presidents first Sunday after his re
family was marked, but as usual, by At
tendance on divine worship at the Metro
politan M. E. Church. With the President
were Mrs. Mckinley and Miss Barker, her
niece. TIE morning broke auspiciously
and up 10 noon there WAS excellent wea ther
both as to temperature aud clear skies
4 fter church, however, it clouded up and it
threatened to rain, and did rain nttie
OFF aud Oh until night.
The President is always looked at, biit
invariably ia respectful fashion at these
church gatherings. People who saw him
yesterday Were ware that his trip had inr
proved hin. He had Lecome somewhat
oareworn with the ineessant siege OF the
officeseekers. The short trip has made
the President new man, or rather his
old self again
The sermon was by the eloquent pastor
OF the church Rev. Dr. Hugh Johnston, on
the text from Philippians: let this
mind be in you when was also ia Christ
Jesus.
This passage, the preacher said, with
its eioquence and wealth OF spiritual
thought unsurpassed and hardly equaled
i'll any portion oil the word OF God is an
exhortation TO self-sacrifice, lowli-
ness OF mind being enforced and illustrated
by the example 0f the Lord Jesus Christ.
The first fact stated is ChriSt's glory He
subsisted in the form OF God. We next
contemplate His self humilia tion. He
enpticd Himself ana took on the form of
a servant He is also formed in the fashion
of man, and this is the great mystery
OF Gudliuess, but in this there is nothing
contrary to reason, for the idea OF the in
carnation was in some form the idea of all
NATIONS embaimed in tradition, incorporated
into legends, and breathed forth i'll poetry
Christ ,ieath, too, was m5re han a mere
mart yrdoln.
He was exalted. In His humiliation He
experienced what il was TO be Won; ia
His death He experienced what it was TO
be God. Tie most powerful lesson lert to
us was Pis example. Self sacrifice is
she cream and flower Of human excellence
Surely this is the right way; this is right
life. Ths lowliness of mind is the pre-
cursor of the highest elevation. None
was SO IowIy as Christ, and none 81 high
The more w become ike Him the more
Nge shall be to Him.

Rev. Amanda Deyo, of Philadelphia, ana

The topic ot her discourse was The Past,

text was taken from the fourth chapter OF
John epistle and the seventeenth ana
eighteenth verses. Many OF those present
heard for the first time u regularly OF
dained woman pTea acher-
TIE speaker was arrayed in a long black
gown of clerical style and talked with an
earneStneSs that at once impressed the con
gregtti0n. She outlined the purpose and
aim OF the Univ veIsa list Church and detailed
to her hearers its foundation. It's present
work in the interest of peace was lSo cX-
planned and then Mrs. Deyo told about its
future.
Frequently during her discourse she .re-
ferred To the principles OF the peace union
ana mentioned the efforts heing made TO
induce nations TO settle difficulties by
courts of arbitration instead Of toy force
OF arms. War was declared TO be unneCes-
Sary, and at one time she gave an ilustra-
ton of what Ben tamin Rush, the great
Universalist, rad said when Congress was
discussing what inscription to put over
the War Department. Rush, in making
suggestion, sad remarked that a prcIer III
scription would be: the widow ma king,
the bone brea king, poverty-nla king De
partment of War" That is my sentiment
exactly" declared the lady preacher
Not alone is war diScountenauced, but
also cruel laws, such as capital punish
ment. She explained that the work Of
Universalism was growing, and the future
would see greater effort in inducing the
lawmakers of the nations To make gentler
laws. Considerable attention viii be given
to the eSta DliShment of courts of arbitra-
tion, and the adoption OF the Anglo
American treaty, said Mrs. Deyo, in con
clusion.
