Father to his children? Prayers for
the sake of Christ ought to mean prayers
for the sake of love, justice and mercy
ard not for the sake of crime. Prayers
in Christs name must be moral and
spiritual. True prayer, the truest
prayer, is hunger for God. a desire to
find his blessed presence. The follow
ers of Zoroaster believed that their God
Ormuzd had Amshaspands around his
throne to present to him the petitions of
his worshipers, and the Catholics pray
to Mary. and Mary prays to Christ, and
Christ prays to God, showing that Cath
olicism has borrowed something from
Persia. If God is in US as our life We
need no intercessors. Christ prayed
to God directly. and it cannot be wrong Z

pressive Services

David Walk began an evangelistic
service in this church yesterday which
will be continued indefinitely. This is
new movement, and in a section OF
the city where such work is much need
ed, and where the prospect of building
up strong church is very hopeful The
morning service was we'll attended, and
the interest was full of promise as to
future results. Mr.. Walk read a por-

answer of Peter to the question of the

CENTRAL BAPTIST.
The Eternal Safety of the Children of
God

The theme of Rev. B. A. Copass Of the
Central Baptist church was The Eter-
nal Safety of the Children of God He
took as text Deut. xxxii:27: 1.-THE eter-
nal God is thy refuge and underneath
are the everlasting arms; and he shall
thrust out the enemy from before thee,
and shall say Destroy"
He said: Deuteronomy is book of
discOurses. 1t contains history, laws,
warnings and promises. In this chap
ter Moses blesses all the tribes of Israel
except Simeon, and then at the close of
this his last discouse he turns to general
truths concerning the nation as whole
and God. Among other things he pro-
claims the text: The eternal God is thy
refuge" etc. Could Israel but have seiz-
ed and appropriated these truths they
would have lifted him to his God. The
text contains two leading thoughts
God, the haven of eternal safety for his
children, and God, the one who thrusts
out and destroys his peoples enemies
First. let us consider God, the haven of
eternal safety for his children. To i'm
press this truth Moses uses two express
sions, much alike and yet with differ
ent meaning. We Will consider them sep
arately. % "The eternal God is thy
refuge" This expression is, no doubt.
drawn from a preceding provision of
the cities of refuge" Moses had ap-
pointed six cities where one who acci-
dentally took another's life could flee
from the avenger of blood. There are
two ideas in or about the word refuge.
1t is a place to flee from danger. 1t is
natural for every one to desire to have
place of refuge to which he or she can
flee. A child runs to its parents; a wife
goes to her husband, ard husband in
| turn to his home. Blessed the-wife who
knows how to receive the tired husband,
blessed the husband who knows how to
comfort the wife who keeps his kome.
Moses desired Israel to see the true ref
uge from all dangers, natural and spir-
itual.
Again, refuge implies a place of de-
fense and safety from enemies without.
This thought grows out of the preceding.
There is nothing more comforting than
to feel that one is safe during times of
danger, or that the leader in charge is
able to care for all under him. All re-
member the little girls confidence dur
ing storm at sea, because her father
was at the helm Even so the child of
the eternal God can dwell with him and
be at rest THE eternal God is thy ref
uge."

Chicago, Jan. G.-In the trial of EXPIRES
ident Reinhart and eN-Traffic Manager
Hanley, of the Santa Fe system to-day for
violation of the interstate law, Attorney
Forest outlined the defense, when he took
up the continuance of the cross examina-
ton of John G. Taylor, the ex-live stock
agent of the Santa Fe road. 1t will be that
the rate or rebates were made by Taylor
and not by Hanley. as declared by Taylor.
At the same time Mr. Forest laid the foun-
dation for an impeachment of the witness
if found necessary by the defense.
Taylor, who is the well known horseman
and owner of Joe Patchen, testified yester-
day that Hanley had directed him to settle
the rebates due the Hammond company
and Isaac Thompson.
To-day Mr.. Forest at the opening asked
Taylor if when he turned his Office over
to his successor, Agent Titus he had not
said to Titus that he would get even with
Hanley for causing his discharge and fur
ther told Titus, that he, Taylor, never took
his orders from Hanley, but from the pres
ident of the road. Taylor denied the Ian
guage quoted.
Taylor denied that he ever said to ]. L.
Pennington never mind Hanley, he does
not count for much. Take your orders
from me; 1 get mine from the president" ="
He denied that he told Commissioner Van
landingham, of the Kansas City transpor-
tation bureau 'Hanley discharged me and
1 will get even with him.
Taylor denied that he told Manager II.
p. Child, of the Kansas City stock yards
that when the president of the Santa Fe
road had been asked for rebate on n loose
carload shipment of cattle that the pres
ident of the road had said, See John Tay-
lor; he is the only person in the Santa Fe
employ who has authority TO make re-
bates.'' He denied that he had told Han
ley's private secretary that he '.hoped to
live long enough to get square with Han
ley"
On redirect examination by Mr.. Shields
for the government, Taylor said he had not
made rebates in the two cases named in
the Indictment but that Hanley had made
the same.

A large force of men was at work all
day yesterday tearing up the granite pave
ment on the Ninth street line and putting
in additional tie-rods between the tracks
and the slot rails. in order to prevent the
slot closing up during the cold weather.
With these extra tie-rods, the Metropolitan
company thinks that the slot can be kept
open and the frequent delays which oc-
Cured on the line Monday from this cause,
prevented. This same trouble. which has
confronted the company on this branch,
was experienced on all the other branches
when they were new.
