"Astor, the astro1oger," of New York,
who claims to be able to read the future
In the glints of 1.-The diamonds in the

on the fight at Carson:
.'The coming encounter between the
two great giants of the prize ring, which
is to take place on the 18th of the current
month, naturally excites much comment
from the world at large; both men have a
strong GLOWING and admirers by the
score, who contend that the other fellow
stands no show whatever, while even the
contestants themselves seem to be certain
of victory, thus adding still greater inter
est in this long drawn-out battle OF fisti-
cuffs From a planetary point OF view,
the aspects and positions of the planets
is significant of much personal antipathy
bet tween them, and owing to this reason
the coming contest for supremacy will not
be altogether prompted by the champion
ship prize, and bids fair to be the most
memorable one iii the history of the saw
dust arena.
''Fitzsimmons' horoscope at birth is the
more favorable of the two. This fact as
basis. with the wide contrast in Fitz-
simmons favor of the planetary influences
operating in the two figures for the pres
ent year, can beget but one logical conclu-
sion, in the following prediction: on the

prove himself entitled to what he already
claims-the pugilistic championship of the

Most of Fitzsirnmons' friends are we'll

reason they could give for Bob making
the kick was that he probably thought it
would influence the betting.

q wager of 81 400 on Corbett with Joe

~wHAT Is THE CHURCH FOR."'
Rev. Alexander Kent breaches at
Typographical Temple.

There was 2 fair audience at the Typo
graphical Temple yesterday morning, to
hear the sermon of Rev. Alexander Kent.
A collection was taken up after the sermon
to reimburse the treasurer for advances he
had made to meet current expenses, and
the amount was easily raised
DIR. Kent's subject was what Is the
Church For?' lie said that one of the
questions everybody asks on seeing for
the first time some machine or structure,
the uses of which he does not know. is
"What is it for?'' There is an assump-
tion underlying that question that every
thing W hich exists should serve some use.
Everything that is, therefore, must give
some reason for its being OF be content to
go. The church is no exception. The peo-
pie are not satisfied with the reasons it
has offered in the past, and are beginning
10 query whether it hasn't had its day.
Multitudes have broken with it altogether
and look upon it now as d thing out
grown. They have no use for it because
Il performs no use for them, but this may
be their ow n fault
With this general outline of his topic
DR.. Kent went on to show how the aim
of the orthodox church was simply to save
a man. The making of men comfortable
Or happy or virtuous, even in the ordinary
acceptation of the term, must never inter
fere with that which concerns their eternal
salvation. The conviction is growing that
c is not in the line of brotherhood for q
few to have all the creature comforts OF
This world, and the balance to slave and
toll that the few may live in luxury and
tase. And there is q grim determination
that this sort of thing must come to an end.
