Do you &C to church just to hear

Do you go to church to pass

Do you go to church to criticise
the preacher
Do you go TO church to show
your fine clothes
We often hear people remark
about going to church.
Do you 60 to church with no
thought of doing better?
Do you go to church because
there is no other place to gos
Do you go to church for the pur-
pose of telling others that you were
there?
Do you go to church because
you think Christian people viii
think more of you9
Do You go to church to try to
fool somebody and make them be-
lleve you are terribly moral
you go for any of these rea-
sons, you had as wei, stay at home.
In the final end your hypocrisy will
be known and the devil will have
no trouble in recognizing you. 1t
is best to go to church, but one
should go to hear the preacher,
with the hope of being benefited by
what he says. One should NOS go
to church to crafty some self sh
worldly end, but so for the par

living a better life. lex.

CASE OF CAPTAIN DREYFuss.
Strong Effort to secure the Release
of the Alleged Traitor.

Copyright, 1897, by the Associated Press.)
LONDON, Oct 3O.-There seems to be
some substance behind the. latest agitation
in behalf of Capt. Alfred Dreyfuss the
French artillery officer who, in 1895, on con-
viction by couTt-martial on the charge of
selling important military plans to agents
of foreign government, was sentenced to
Imprisonment for life in a fortress, and who
is now confined on a small island of the
French group off the east coast of French
NGuiana. The prime mover in the present
steps taken in behalf OF the prisoner is M.
Scheurer-Kestner, one of, the vice presi-
dents of the French Senate, and president
of the Paris Societe Chenique, who, like
Dreyfuss, is Alsatian Hebrew, and
who is related to NM. F'loquet and
Ferry, the former ministers, and other
families of influence. M. Scheurer- Kestner
claims to have irrefutabe proofs of the in
nocence of Dreyfuss, and he asserts that he
knows the real culpTit. The interest taken
in the case by the vice president of the
Senate is said to have aroused the interest
of President Faure, and it is understood
that NJ. Scheurer-K estner is determined to
raise the question i'm Parliament. He has
already conferred with the ministers of war
and justice on the subject The Ratrie of
