XIII, again, owns d pearl left 10 him by
his predecessor on the throne of st. Peter.
which is worth sl0e ,o0e. and the chain of
ihirt tive pearls owned by the Empress
Frederick is estimated at Sl75, 900.
One million dollars Is the price of five
chains of pearls forming a collar owned
by the Baroness Gustave de Rothsehiid,
and that Of the Barren ess Ad9iphe de RothS-
child is aluinst as valuable. But these
ladies arc enthusiastic collectors of PEARLS.
and their jewellers have instructions to buy
for them any pearl Of Hnusua size or heaut )

the common property of the nation by
taking tue whole taxes out of the soil, and
thereby abolishing all other taxes His
theory. thoroughly worked out i'll Prog
ress and Poverty" by Henry George, is
commonly known as single tax, because
il proposes to abolis h all other taxes but
those on land values. 1t proposes TO take
for the uses of the community that only
which the community has created and To
leave To the l3borer all that is really the
product OF his toll. In far as labor
is taxed industry is discouraged. In 50
men are fined for being thrifty, saving,
and economical. improvements bring pen
aitses, but when land values are taxed
individual labor goes untaXed. When the
r mt nt the soil pays all the taxes, indi
Siduai earnings, accumulation and inn
provements are encouraged.
Perhaps the greatest OF all the ad-
vantages accruing to this system is the
tendency To prevent the holding of lands
for speculative purposes in growing Com
munities.
Let rs learn MS fast as we can what
1t is that our Caesar may rightfuIly de-
mand, anG then let US render unto Caesar
the things that are Caesars. There is no
other way in which we can render unto
God che things that are Gods, for the
true service of God is the service of

THE WAYS OF PROVIDENCE
Rev. DR.. Johnston breaches at the
Metropolitan M. E. Church.
The President Among the Great
Congregation to Greet the Pas
tor After His Vacation.

President Mckinley attended church
yesterday at the Metropolitan, as is his
usual custom when in the city. His one
Sunday here between his two vacations
happened to he, also, the Sunday after
the return of DR.. Johnston, the pastor
OF the church, from his TWO months trip
in Europe
There was an immense congregation
in honor OF the two eyents-one of the
largest in the history OF the church
President Mckinley sat In his accus
toned pew the tmrd from the front on
the right middle aisle. He joined IN the
service, singing the hymns heartily.
Dr. Johnston chose for his subject yes
terday Providence, and he used q text
frcm Psalm 27: THY way is in the sea,
and Thy path in the great waters"
-.Gcds way is in the sea- he said, "a
mighty way He spoke of the iInmenSity,
the infinity Of the universe, and of Gods
purposes and Of the law Of them, certain,
unending, absolute, perfect. Everything
that men accomplish and every event OF
their lives is according to GOD IS laws.
In Connection with this DR.. Johnston
spoke OF the answering of prayers. Goo
does answer prayers, he said, but there
must he faith and there must be effort OH
oar part If wa wish God to help us We
have no right 70 expect aid from Him if
Fge o. not believe in Him wholly, and if
we dc not use all our own strength 70
gain our wishes. when we wish for what
is good for Us and work for it God will
direct our efforts.
Gods arays are mysterious. We cannot
know them. We cannot interpret God.
Because He is God, omnipotent, we may
never understand His reasons.
nr. Johnston pointed out that we must
never. for this reason, seek to interpret
| the meaning OF disaster. There Is no rea
son to Say when tribulation comes that it
| is in Judgment for wronsdoing. People are
sometimes inclined 10 say when a fire
breaks out in a great theater and many
people are killed that it Is a visitation OF
GODS wrath for wrongdoing. But fires
sometimes destroy churches as well.
At the evening service DR.. Johnston
talked OF some phases Of the religious
work in England and on the continent as
he had found it during his summer trip.

VACATIONS AND PROSPERITY.
DR.. RadcIiffe Makes Them the Text
of His Sunday Sermon.

DR.. Radcliffe Makes Them the Text
of His Sunday Sermon.
The Rev. Ter. Wallace Radcliffe, pastor
OF the New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church, was W elcomed back after his va
cation by d large congregation yesterday y
at the morning service at that church. And
after the service the pastor was tendered i
an informal reception, at which the indi
vidual mcubers Of the congregation ex-
tended hearty greetings.
DR.. Radcliffes sermon was on the sub
ject Of vacations. based on the text from
Matthew WILLIS: And He gave com
mand to depart to the other side
Before discussing his text, however, DIR.
Radcliffe referred 20 the condition of the
country, saying that if the testimony Of
wise men in business centers who have
given the matter careful consideration can
be trusted there is no doubt that pros
perity has come. There is sunshine and
trade has revived
Then referring to the text DR.. Rad
cliffe said the disciples Of the Christian
faith of every age must have a change
Of scenery; there must be a cessation for
d time In order that activity may be re-
new ed with greater pow er and vigor
Like the disciples, however, we must be
sent on our vacations, not take them Of
our own accord, at our own convenience
1t is our duty to obey the summons "
God for He VIII impose no task which
lie does not give strength to accomplish.
In conclusion DR.. Radcliffe advised
his hearers whenever they go on
vacation to take their Bibles with them.
In this connection he related an incident
which revealed the scarcity of Bibles at
summer resorts, and regretted that now
adays the books OF the old Bible and the
psalms We're not committed to memory
by verse and chapter as in the old days
