HENRY GEORGE EULOCIzED
Services at the Peoples Church
Honoring His Memory.
Cong ress man simpson, of Kansas,
Declares He. Sacrificed His Life
for the Sake of Principle.

A memorial service in honor Of the late
Henry George was held yesterday morning
at the People's Church, in the Typo
graphical Temple, on q street northwest
Rev. DR.. Kent, the pastor. conducted the
exercises and introduced the speakers
He apoligiZed for the absence OF James
Herne the actor, who had promised 10 be
present and make an address. Mr.. Herne
had been taken seriously i'll and vas un
able tc appear. The other speakers were
Hon. Jerry Simpson and Mr.. Jackson Raj
ston.
DR.. Kent euiogized Henry George who
had, lie said, consecrat tea himself to his
fellow man. A t an early age the great
problem OF poverty had imprcsse 4 il self pn
Henry George. and he determined to make
it his lie study. He never faltered in
his purpose, but persisted in his efforts Until
he had really made himself the servant OF
his fellow man. He espoused cause
which was not popular, although he var
possessed Of powers to have enabled him
to win place among statesmen.
''We love him." said the clergyman, "he
cause he first loved US. l do not mean
when l say that he loved us thtt he
loved q certain class of people. No, he
work ed for all mankind. lie denied on
one occa sion that te was the champion of
the working people, but espoused cause
which he believed for the good of all
mankind without reference to any particu-
lar class"
DR.. Kent introduced Mr.. Raj ston, who
said he rejoiced that such a man as
Henry George had lived and had lived
long enough to impress his ideas upon
mankind. Hetaught that private property
in land deprived man OF every right TO
live. He also taught that private prop rty
in lane was an injury to society, He
would not tell you that he discovered
this theory that all men have a right To
the use of the earth, because he lid not.
1t was an idea which run through all
the ages, but an idea overcome by selfish
ness and the private interest of nl1n.'
Hon. jerry Simpson of Kansas appeared
after Mr. RaIston. He was. he said, Per
sonal friend of Henry George. The latter
had studied the social conditions as no
man ever before. 1t was his one idea, and
he ehadsacrificedtisi life for the advancement
Of his principles Referring TO the New
York campaign he explained that Henry
George had at one time regarded the can-
paign of 1883 as the one mistake of his
life, because he thought the people might
regard his principles in political light.
Il waAsurprised when IL armed that he had
again gone into a political campaign, but
it was explained to me. Henry George de-
cided that 1t was n chance to secure the
spreading of his doctrines as they had never
before been spread. / believe he succeed
ed, but as you all know, it was at the
sacrifice Of his own life.
Il arr glad to know from the expressions
Of the press since the death of Henry George
that his tt achings are falling among people
where their Influence will never he rooted
out. And hope and believe that IN q few
years this country Will adopt the principles
outlined by hin, and engrave them on the
statute books"

4 REIGN OF UNIVERSAL PEACE.
DR.. Parsons Advocates Settling Na'
tinnnl difference. hy Arbitration


tiomnl Differences by Arbitration
The ser,aon Of Rev. W. =. Parsons, At 'he
Church OF the Reformation yesterday morn
ing was a strong argument In favor oi
international arbitration. He took his
text from Micah, 4,iy: They shall beat
their swords into plowshares, and their
spears into pruning hooks; nation shah
not lift up q sword against nation, ieith'r
shall tuey learn war any more
It's hardly necessary to say, DIR. Parsons
declared, that this lang uage is both
pointed and prophetic; it is poetic ia rep
resentirg all the implements of warfare "a
transformed into implements Of agriculture.
Ii is prophetic in that it forecasts such
period when as yet there was no Sign u
it. But we are not to expect the fulfill
ment of such & prophecy until the rhie
of Christ, the Prince of Peace, has been
FAR enough, extended to bring about the
end desired and foretold.
DR.. Parsons quoted fron Gen. Sherman.
who wrote: "War is eraeity-you cannot
refin, it War is Hell Grant also Saih:
Il was II aimed as a soldier | have par
ticipatedin In many a battle, but have never
seen Il time when, in my opinion, some Wy
might not have been found TO avoid dra W
ing the sword. | look forward to the tir.e
when q court recognized by all na'iouS
shan S'Jtie international differences
In conclusion DR.. Parsons called attention
to ta- .vaS in which the divine and desira-
ble end is to be reached; 1T viii be cached
through human agencies, most ,livint.
things come to u.s. Christ came in human
form; tie Bible is a divine book in htma n
language, and the coming Of Christ, and
His reign of universal peace will after III
be under human conditions, III hGlaan
