THE CANON ATTACKS ECCLESIASTES.
DR. CHgYNE AscRIBEs THE BOOK TO scEPrl-
CAL SPIRIT BORROWED FROM GREECE. AND
THINKS TT HAS BEEN REVISED.

Canon Thomas X Cheyne. Of Oxford. England
gave his fifth lecture yesterday afternoon at the
Union Theological Seminary. on orthodox and
Heretica Wisdom: Contemporary Levitical Piety.'
Canon Cheyne said that the spirit Of doubt en-
tered Judaism from Greece and cited the influence
Of the poet Agur. Hellenizing Jew. who. he said.
was prototype Of Goethe's Faust" This litera-
ture OF doubt spread widely. and met with vigor-
Gus protest from the orthodox Jew. The Book OF
Ecclesastes was the chief work OF this sceptical
spirit, but, the Canon says. It has suffered much
from Interpolation and violence, and, as II STANDS
to-day has Inconsistencies that cannot exist IN the
work OF rational thinker. A'What a difference
between the God OF the psalmsts ana the COO OF
the author OF Ecclesastes. That the latter never
mentions Jehovah is trihe, but how far away
and unsympathetc is his God! :. lie has
abandoned the belief in Gods retrbutive justice.
The man has lost his Messiah and has no
standard OF absolute good" In the eyes of the
author Of Ecclesiastes, the most prudent is he who
is at once moderately plous and moderately worldly
Canon Cheyne thinks that the orthodox reVlsOiS
Of the book had sorry time OF H. They attempt
ed to make the author "a preacher or doctrine
he did not believe and pillar Of an orthodoxy he
did not profess" -,
Canon cheyne's last lecture at the Seminary vii
be Wednesday afternoon. at 4:3O. HIS subject
will be "Judaism-Its Power OF Attracting Foreign
ers: Its Higher Theology: Its Relation to Greece
Persia and Babylon"

fall continues. The same conditions pre-
vail In the territory which feeds the Ohio
and other tributaries. while the heaviest
rains OF all are descending over the al
ready submerged Arkansas territory.

ward with unabated zeal. Four or five res
cue steamers arrived here. bringing sew
cral hundred refugees nearly all Of whom

Croachment of the water over its tracks

way situation on The Arkansas side Of the
river remains unchanged and all trains
are entering the city over the Iron Mount
