Sermon by Rev. j. BaIfour Smith of sum
mertield Church-dow Humdrum Tasks
May be Made Easy.
At the Sumerfield NJ. f. church yes
terday morning the pastor Rev. j. Bal
four Smith preached from the text
found in Collossions, 3, 28; "Whatso-
ever We do do it heartily as unto God
and not unto man." The preacher dis
cussed his theme In a conversational
manner and drew from the text the true
rule of Christian living, He said in
substance:
1--WE should go far away If we were
to suppose that looking toward God was
peculiar only to those who profess the
Christian religion. One In his morning
walk about Athens when at the height
of her glory was quite as apt to come
across a statue Of god as of a man.
The Athenians looked to a god in every
time of need. The trouble was with the
gods they reverenced. Everyone has
some sort of religion, the same relig-
ious instinct is present in all the human
race, but the object of their worship
varies. If l should give a name to this
sermon or sermonette l think l should
call it the rule of life. The rule of life
and action laid down In the text should
be the underlying motive of every
Christian life.
How essential it Is that everyone
should have some inspiring, ennobling
motive in the humdrum tasks of daily
life. The signs Of discomfort which are
prevalent among the laboring classes in
this country are due to the discomfort
which the laborer feels at the narrowing
condition of the toll at which he Is
placed, and is it to be wondered at that
man who spends every day of his life
perhaps at grinding piece of iron or
work of similar nature should feel
discomfort at his lot? Every reader of
history must see that there must come
change in this condition of labor; that
the laborer must have some higher mo-
tive in his work; that he must feel that
he is working for God, if this country is
to escape revolution.
Then, again, there is the drudgery
of domestic life; the doing over again
and again Of the same trivial labor.
How monotonous. How depressing this
labor is if one has not conception of
its real use and purpose.
1.-The truth and the lesson which we
can draw from our text Is that we
should do our work looking for Gods
approval and not for the approval of
men. If one wishes the good opinion of
his fellow men he will not obtain it by
fawning for their favor but by unset
fishly performing his task. If one
knows that God is regarding his toll,
however humble it may be- then to such
a man the most humdrum duties be
come noble and he comes to regard
them as a means of working out God S
| purpose in the world"

Polls Wonderland Theater.

Another great double feature is Of
fered as the special attraction of this
weeks bill in Miss Josephine Sabel, the
beautifuland brilliant chanteuse writer.
Miss Sabel made a brilliant record at
Roster & Balls a year ago, being re-
tained for ten months as the leading
singing feature of all bills at the the
alter. She is an exceptionally handsome
young woman, with a soprano voice of
rare sweetness and power. Some of her
that take so well with cosmopolitan
audience such as is usually assembled
at the Wonderland This will be the
first appearance of Miss Sabel in New
Haven, and Manager Poll is to be con-
graduated on being the first to bring
this famous chanteuse here. Joe Flynn
is so we'll known to vaudeville patrons
as the author of many pretty little
things that he scarcely needs any in
PRODUCTION. 1t is sufficient to say that
his parodies this season are among the
best he has ever perpetrated and his
entire budget of songs is new. Other
clever artists who will figure in the
bill are Mr.. Watson and Miss Dupre
Rolf Arras and Miss Alice, Tom Hef-
ron, Mr.. Coulby and Miss Way, Mr..
Raymond and Miss Clark, Mcbride and
Gordon, and others. Bicycle riders can
enjoy the shows at this theater without
worrying over their wheels, as they can
have them checked free by applying to
the doortender. ....

close he goes to the other extreme,
spends money like water, and enter
tains in manner that Is dazzling, All
this strengthens the idea in Henrietta's
mind and that Sites is the forger and
that he is dissipating upon the pro-
ceeds. Numerous are the complications
that arise from this incident, and in
the final act Sites is arrested for rob-
bling himself. Henrietta in the mean
time has become greatly attached to
Sites, and after she has caused his ar
rest regrets her action and endeaVors

satisfactorily explained. Running
through the play are several interesting
under plots, and the story is told in
bright, crisp dialogue. Miss Rush por-
trays the female detective, which gives
her splendid opportunities and in which
she will wear some striking gowns.

ROLAND REED THIS WEEK

ROLAND REED THIS WEEK.
A strong attraction is announced for
this week at the Hyperion theater in
that sterling actor, Roland Reed. Mr..
Reed will have the assistance of that
delightful actress, Miss Isadore Rush,
and a most capable company of well
known actors, and will present here his
latest comedy, THE Wrong Mr..
Wright" which will be presented with
special scenery and effects. The play
abounds IN highly amusing and compli-
Gated situations, which enable Mr.. Reed
and his company to be seen to great
advantage. The character which Mr..
Reed portrays, Seymour Sites" is that
of a man about fifty. who has by close
application to business amassed large
fortune. He is a resident of San Fran
cisco, and has not been from home in
twenty years He is extremely mean
and close in his business and private
life. The scene of the play opens at
Old Point Comfort, where Sites has
come, this being the first time he has
left his business in twenty years He
is brought to this point by the defalca-
ton of a clerk who has forged his
name to a check for $50, 600 The matter
has been placed in the hands of a de-
teotive agency and reward of 5000 is

CIVIL PROGRESS IN CUBA.

A New Havener would commend the
following from the New York Mail and
Express to the attention of New Haven
readers:
TN view of the Spanish boast that
the revolution in Cuba has been sup
pressed, some recent information from
the leaders of that movement possesses
a highly significant interest. 1t is an
nounced, for instance, that the repre-
sentatives of the Cuban republic are
about to meet in conference to make
needful amendments to their constitu-
ton and to provide additional measures
for the civil administration of the gov
eminent. In this conference each of the
six provinces of the island will be rep
resented by regular delegates formally
elected by the people. The time and
place of the meeting have been definite
ly chosen and are known to the Span
iards as well as to the Cubans and the
whole undertaking is going forward
along the orderly lines that would guide
similar political enterprise in an
American commonwealth.
"The meaning of this work is unmis-
taxable. If the Cubans have been
whipped they simply haven't found it
out yet. Their civil institutions are SUI
preme in many parts of the island,
whole communities are under the pro-
lection Of their administration, and the
proposed changes in their organic law
are designed solely to enlarge the pow
ers Of the government for the peaceful
control of public affairs An amicable
contest for the presidency Of the repub-
lie Is already in progress; the civil and
military departments Of the govern
ment are working together in perfect
harmony, and the spirit of the people
will probably receive early expression
in a law prohibiting any Cuban leader
from receiving any peace proposal from
Spain unless it be based upon the condi-
ton of absolute independence for the
island
Keeping these facts in mind, the
American people will continue to take
all high-sounding claims of Spanish
victory in Cuba with many grains of
allowance. The Spaniards may have
convinced themselves that the revolu-
ton is beaten, but they have not con-
WINGED the Cubans. The latter, indeed,
are pursuing their campaign of liberia
ton with increasing force and conf
dence, and the most trustworthy re-
ports indicate that their cause is stead
lily advancing. The best index to the
whole situation in Cuba lies in the fact
that, while the air is ringing with noisy
boasts that the revolution has been
finally crushed, the Spanish are expend-
ing vast sums of money and energy in
Strengthening the entertainments and
Notifications around the city of Hava-
ma"

and exaggerated statements have been
made. In reply to q reporter who ask
ed one of the gentlemen referred to
whether he wished to say anything
about the matter, he said: Nothing
whatever. Too much has been said
about it already 1t was intended to be
strictly private and never ought to have
got into the newspapers, I will say,
though, that the matter has been gross
ly distorted in the reports. No petition
