Weekly Synopsis Of Labor News.
Meeting Of the Building Trade
Council-General Notes

Forty acresof ground have been secur-
ed from land owner in Chicago for the
purpose of cultivation for the worthy
unemployed. Seed and potatoes were do
mated, the seed being given by the gov
ernment and the potatoes donated in
sufficient quantities by the charitably
disposed. The ground has all beer.
plowed. staked off and thoroughly pre-
pared For planting, and now $50 heads Of
families are at work on this land. This
is only a starter, and if the experiment
proves successful, as no doubt 1T will,
and has been in other localitieo, more
land will be secured in another year.
This same thing wae agitated in Los
Angeles last spring, and if some exten-
sive land owner near the city had do
mated the land for this same purpose
there would have been much destitu-
tion prevented. ard the vacant land
might have been put to profitable use.

ST. PAUL'S CHURCH
"The Descent Of the Spirit" by Rev.
John Gray

At st. Paul's church Rev. John GRAY
took his text from St. Paul's Epistle 10
the Hebrews. The great central truth
of the sermon was that of the day,
Whitsuntide; the inspiration of the Holy
Spirit descending upon our Lord in bap-
tism.
The speaker described the baptism of
Jesus in the river Jordan and the desce Mt
of the Spirit in the form Of a dove,
amounting, ordaining and setting him
apart for his ministry. His baptism was
not for the remission of sins, but corr
secration and not in any way pattern
for the baptism of men.
The holy scriptures represent Chri.t
standing as mediator between God and
man for the sins of the whole world; not
to free man from his duties but as re-
mission for his sins. This mediation is
not system of dreams and fancies or
visions, but a system of facts.
Christ supplied what is not perfect in
man. There would have been no media
tion as an example and if we do not &C.
cept this we doubt God and cruelty
Christ afresh. The final and last estate
is to come to Christ. The Holy Ghost
abides in the church in it's scriptures aud
blessed sacrament. and in that part of
man called his spiritual nature.
The greatest thing is the love Of
Christ; it is better than the blood Of
Abel better than the flash of angels
wings. that he took upon himself flesh
to become the mediator for the sins of
men,

FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Evangelist Small on the Keys Of the
Kingdom

Yesterday was a great day for the
First. Christian church. There were
large audiences at both services At the
morning service Evangelist Small
preached upon 1.-THE Keys and Founda-
ton of the Kingdom of God" The best
illustration of the keys of the kingdom
said the speaker, is found in Luke 11:52
where Christ condemns the lawyers be-
cause they had taken away the key of
knowledge, showing clearly that in
Christ's own diction the key of knowl-
edge was the key of the kingdom of
heaven. This key of knowledge was
the terms of admission into the church
of Christ. The evangelist then pro-
ceeded to show that the church was
founded upon the great truth that Jesus
is tf's Son of God and Savior of the
world. Upon no other foundation could
the church be established.
There were several conversions at the
morning service and three elders and
thirteen de'acons were ordained to serve
as officers of this congregation. 1t was
a most impressive service as conducted
by Evangelist Small and Pastor Smither
At the evening service the evangelist
preached strong sermon upon the
"Unreasonableness of Infidelity." The
meetings will continue through the
week.

SIMPSON TABERNACLE
Rev. DR.. Mclean on Gods Reconcilia-
ton to Man

Simpson Tabernacle was we'll attend
ed Sunday morning. Rev. C. c. Mclean,
d. D., filled hie pulpit using as his text
St John, iii:xvi.-God so loved the
world that He gave His Son to die, that
we through Him might have everlasting
life." An eminent divine has charac-
terized this text as Scripture eptomized.
The Lord Jesus Christ coming into
this world was for great purpose. He
took upon Him flesh and dwelt among
ue; was tempted like as we are. yet
without sin, thus opening up way for
and relationship nearer than we could
have had under the old dispensat
gift of God Himself for us, showing, as
it does, that infinite love and that ines
timable value he put upon the human
soul. Think of this gift to ue, who loved
Him not. He showed His divinity when
He said. 'I have power to lay down my
life and 1 have power to take it again" I"
Christ loved the church and gave Him
self for it; He died a ransom for all.
God is in US the hope of glory. He spared
not His Son, but freely gave Him for
us to be a Precipitation for our Gins, and
not ours only. but for the sins of the
whole world, that whosoever believeth
on Him-on Him as an exampie--no, not
that, but on Him as God, as redeemer
from sin, might have eternal life. The
second person of the Godhead took upon
Himself our nature and suffered, was
tempted and died and became an advo-
cate-this that we might be heirs with
Him of eternal glory. Why did not God
create a Being and burden him with re-
deeming power to save us? He would
not have had our nature, he would not
have been our brother, he would not
have suffered for us, nor have been
tempted as we are nor have sympathized
with our infirmities, like as Christ doee.
ther would it have been the greateet
gift God had to offer for mans redemp-
ton. From the richest He became the
poorest for our sakes; so poor that He
had to perform miracle to obtain g
piece of money to pay his taxes; became
poor that we through Him might be-
come rich. God SO loved the world and
Christ so loved us that He was willing
to die for us. This is the measure of
Gods love. This marvel of Gods love
crowns all heaven and all eternity with
a glory He hath purchased for us. So
many know of Gods love but do not ac-
cept it nor do they appreciate it.

by God, and knows God. He who does
not love, does not know Cod for God
IL love;' and II we love one another.
God abides in us BY this we know
that we abide in him, and he in US. be-
cause he has given Us Of his spirit. and
that spirit which he has given US Is love.
Here, then, we discover a great truth.
Christianity is faith and love. love to
God and our fellow man. and faith In
Christ. the Savior of Men. These two
principles. combined in the same life,
will cause one to visit the fatherlese
and the widow in their afflictiohs, and to
keep himself unspotted from the world
And when we live thus we are in fellow
ship with God and our Savior, Christ
THE person who loves God and his fell
low man as himself. and is fully assured
that Jesus is Christ and his personal
savior has religion, and hie life is to
him a real Christian experience. Pri-
mary obedience to the gospel IL not
properly Chrietian experience, for a
man is not Christian until he has thus
obeyed the gospel"

GODS LOVE
Subject of the Sermon at the Church of
Christ

The theme at the East Side Church
of Christ Lords day morning was en-
timacy with Jesus and it's Effect" The
pastor said "A knowledge of Jesus ie
obtained from three sources, history,
revelation and experience. The history
which we have of Jesus is found chiefly
in the first four books, of the New Testa-
mert, and here, also, we have many
truths revealed concerning him, notably
that ne Is the Christ. Our knowledge of
Jesus as experience comes to US through
living the Christian life by faith and in
love, and it is in this way that Chris
tians partake Of the divine nature; For
this is his commandment, that we should
believe on the name of his son Jesus
Christ, and love one another;' and
Every one who loves has been begotten

The Law Of Cause and Effect Dis
cussed at Blavatsky
Hall


At Theosophical headquarters. Odd
Fellows hall. 220M South Main street,
a lecture was delivered by Mr.. w. c. h.
Randolph on the subject of 1.-The Recent
Discoveries in Science Undermining
Materialism and Confirming Theoso-
ply" He said in substance: ''Theosophy
claims that every object in the universe
has septenary constitution or that II
is capable Of seven-fold division.
Physical science has heretofore taken
no notice Of this and has made the error
of dividing the atmosphere into two
gases. oxygen and nitrogen. This di-
vision is found in the public school books
but now comes the discovery OF two
more constituents of the air. argon and
helian. making four now known, and
with three more to follow. Theosophy
tells Of high state Of civilization long
before we as race existed. Discoveries
in the Egyptian pyramids reveal higher
and grander culture among their peo-
pie the further back into prehistoric pc
RODS we trace. Materialism denied. as
long as 1t could, the possibilities Of what
are usually called spiritualietic phenom-
ena. Recent experiments in animal mag
netism and hypnotism prove their truth
beyond doubt Prof. oliver Lodge, a
London scientist. has just had some ex-
perience with medium under condi-
tions arranged by himself and two other
scientists, that compel him to admit the
claim of the occultist that there are
finer forces in nature that can be exerted
without physical contact, all recent sci
entific discoveries have tended to con-
firm the occult doctrine and to destroy
the materialistic philosophy"

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Rev. A. A. Rice on the loyalty Of
Universalists

At Caledonia hall, the pastor. Rev. A.
A. Rice. spoke on alem, "
Cor, xvi-13. stand fast in the faith"
He said in brief:
In these days OF many religious de-
nominations there arise in protest those
who have a tendency to be undenomi-
national. We believe a considerable pro-
portion of these are among Universal
lists and the purpose of this discourse IS
to answer the question, why are not
Universalists more loyal to their own
church ?" The two-fold intimation OF
the text indicates the correct answer.
First we CO not stand fast" or live to
our convictions even so far as we pos
se;Ss our faith, and again we do not pos
sess or stand in the faith" as far as we
ought.
Unfversalisun differs from other faiths
principally in that instead of shifting
life's responsibility II assumes 1t, TAX
ing TO itself no light burden. It's faith
is an applied faith, touching every time
and place of mans existence. It's call to
duty is paramount, and, like the colt in
the hands of the trainer, we shrink from
bearing the load. Our laxity in church
loyalty is the accident of the conditions
lIHpOS=u upon US Dy our laltn, ana IS OC-
cas.or.ed by the relation we bear to that
faith Rather than be much deplored it
should be welcomed as healthy sign,
for scripture says: Where the tres
pa;'o abounded, grace did abound more
exceedingly" Our failure to respond in
all particulars to the far-reaching call
of our belief does not prove us unfaith-
full to its greater portion. Unlike many
other 6'enomin nations the Universalist be-
lieves there is salvation, even outside of
the church, in the fulfilling of love among
Gods needy. The church and lite sup
port is, therefore, sometimes incorrectly
thought to be a secondary duty, and is
neglected.; again, we have not sufficient
intellectual grasp of our faith to make
US loyal, or, rather. we are not suff1-
ciently grasped by it. If the doctrine
of the love of God, which Is the basis of
the system, were laying firm hold on
mans mind and heart, it would set
at defiance every tendency to disloyalty,
and no one would be content or at ease
in any other fold. If the Fatherhood of
God were understood, emphasized and
felt as we today feel the brotherhood Of
man, our church should prosper

Reincarnation

Paul S. Heffieman Of Pasadena ad-
dressed a good eized audience at Bla-
vatsky hall, 525 West Fifth street, Sun
day evening, taking for his subject,
"Theosophy for Business Men" THE
average business man is not one Of those
spineless. namby-pamby individuals
whose whole existence Is a constant
apology and whose idea Of God is that
He is come great revengeful being con-
stantly on the lookout to ensnare and
torment his helpless creatures. If he Is
blessed with good, clear, reasoning
mind, he has been impressed with the
truth OF certain basic principles from
the time he was old enough to think for
himself. If he possesses the qualities Of
honesty and manlinees. he wishes to see
Justice done everywhere and all the time
and he has an intuitive feeling that
somehow, somewhere. even though we
don't always see it, eternal justice rules
the world"
Then. since he is not in the habit OF
going about with his eyes ehut. he be-
gins to question: How can one short
life be considered adequate preparation
for eternity, especially when it Is en-
tered upon and continued under such
vastly different circumstances by differ
ent individuals, that only by the rank
eet injustice could they be Judged alike.
Now, either we must accept reincarna-
ton, which shows that each soul is in
evitably attracted to the place. environ
ment and circumstances under which
he is reborn into earth lite. by the great
law of cause and effect; or else we will
