Stod- dard will reappear in this city to give at Hyperion Theater on Thursday evening, April 8, the entire novelty of a lecture on an American subject. embo- dying his experiences of last summer during a tourney through the Yellow stone National Park.

Having chosen this unique region as the scene of his first American lecture MT Stod- dard visited it last summer.
 It cannot be doubted that the lecture will be especially welcome to those who have long desired to hear of American scenes in the fascinating manner in which MT. Stoddard has for so many years told of those in Europe and the far east.

LAZARUS AND THE RICH MAN.

The parable of Lazarus and the rich man was the subject of an interesting sermon yesterday morning by the Rev. Dr. T. T. Munger in the United church. Dr. Munger said, among other things, that the moral of the parable did not lie in that the subjects were representa- tives of the rich and the poor classes It was not wealth, which might have been inherited or the result of the rich mans early endeavors. It was not this for which he was punished, but it was for his indifference to the wants of his fellow man. Indifference was an evil and one which easily besets rich men, Any good man, and there are scores of them vii tsll you that it is easy to become indifferent and a struggle to be alive to human needs
 It was not in the poverty of Lazarus that the moral was to be found but in the ending of the parable, which taught that there would be an equalization of the affairs of men. It was Gods plan that society should be founded on jus tice and mercy. and woe to the man who put himself in the way of it's ad- Vancement.

THE PHILOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT

THE PHILOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT. To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Before one studies Theosophy and it's influence in the present century, one should understand roughly the diff ference between Theosophy, the Theo- sophical movement and the Theosophi- cal society.
 Theosophy is word derived from the Greek and means divine wisdom. It is not creed; it is rather the synthesis of all philosophy, science and religion. No one of us can be expected to know it all, as it takes in all the truth that is known and is to be known in the fu- ture. From that point of view, one cannot expect to go very deeply into Theosophy as whole. There are, how ever, certain aspects of the truth which are known and these are studied also under the name of Theosophy. It is evident, from the definition, that Theo- sophy does not antagonize any great religion in its essence, since all reli- gions are aspects of the one truth. It rather is the religion. philosophy and science which underlie and include all other religions, sciences and philos- ophies and very much more besides.
 The Theosophical movement is a that is not restricted to any one organization or set of organiza- tions. It is a movement intended to bring together all men into more broth erly feeling with each other and in the progress of time to establish a univer- sal brotherhood upon earth It in- cludes within it's ranks all organiza- tions and persons who In effect, arc striving for the establishment of such a brotherhood in contradistinction to an exclusive brotherhood composed only of the adherents of any one form of belief or set of beliefs.
 The Theosophical society Is an organ ization for the purpose of promoting the Theosophical movement It has three objects. Its principal object is the formation of nucleus of universal brotherhood, without any distincti5ns whatever. Its subsidiary objects are 'd) Ille Stuuy Ol oliClCIL anu I1Ou61U lt- liglons, philosophies and sciences and the demonstration of the importance of such study and (b) the investigation of the unexplained laws Of nature and the psychical powers latent in man. Every member of the society is expect ed to subscribe to the first object and to show tolerance to the opinions of his fellow members. In the society mem bers study Theosophy in it's various as poets, but the society itself has no creed with regard to the truth or falsity of these aspects, and each student ac- cepts or rejects whatever beliefs he chooses without thereby affecting his standing as a member, provided only he does accept the belief In the desira- bility of promoting the first object of the society.
 Tn our next article we shall consider the relation of the Theosophical move ment to the world of to-day.

GERMAN LUTHERAN CHURCH,


 Sermon by Rev. George A, Timm Yes terday morning-Christ's Departure | From Open Enemies and False Frends-What He Offers to the World.
 At the German Lutheran Trinity church on George street the pastor, Rev. John A. Timm, preached in Ger man yesterday morning from the text John vii, 1:15. He spoke of Jesus going over the sea of Galilee, away from open
 enemies and false friends. He also spoke of the enmity of the Scribes and
 Pharisees towards Christian emnity which eliminated in the attempt to kill | Him, He said that for this reason Christ departed from His enemies, not | because of cowardice, but simply for
 the reason that His hour had not yet come.
 Mr. Timm characterized this hatred
 towards Christ as hatred towards the
 truth, and said: "So the enemies of the
 church will not permit her to do her work unmolested, but seek her destruc- l tion, because she represents and
 spreads the truth. The position of
 Christs disciples and of all true Chris } tians against Christ's enemies is not ! that of dsputants, but rather that of
 those representing truth by a holy walk 1 in life. We can meet Christ's enemies | far better by living the truth than by | trying to convince by argument. Let | us preach the living truth, an argu-
 ment that cannot be controverted. | Christ was a man of the people,
 healing their sick and preaching the l,Word of Life to them. His very name,
 Jesus of Nazareth, convinced the thou
 sands who heard Him that He was one | of them. It needed but a word from
 Him to arouse their zeal for any cause He might present. To-day He is also | the man of the people. His church l does not oppose, but works for the in- l terests of man. He and His Word full 1 ly sympathize with the poor and the | oppressed among the worlds laborers Ae He fed the thousands with loaves | and fishes, so He feeds every living | thing to-day. It Is not the two hun dred pennyworth of bread nor the mon- ey saved for a rainy day that will SUD- l ply our needs, but only He who satis- | fieth the desire of every living thing.
 His friends desired to proclaim Him king and place Him at their head l What a triumph it would have beer had Christ submitted, Had He been a
 man filled with the ambition of Ma poleon the whole world would have been at His feet; but He is the king of truth whose kingdom is provided ir that sacrifice which He Himself laid on the altar at Calvary. As such king He insists on being received. He is not one to dispense merely the things
 of this life, although His disciples never
 wanted, but He is one who offers Us
 the inestimable riches ef heaven.
 Before He can become king He must be our high priest. He will depart 1 from those who will not receive Him 1 as He has revealed Himself in His 1 Word, Shall He depart from us also?'
