LECTURE BY AN EMINENT DIVINE
Enjoyed by Large Audience at
the House of Hope Church
Outline of the Talk.

In the House of Hope Presbyterian
church last night, Rev. DR.. John II.
Barrows the distinguished ChicaSo
divine, delivered a very interesting
lecture on 1.-THE Christian Conflict in
Asia to an audience that filled the
edifice. DR.. Barrows has been pron1-
nently identified with Presbyterianism
in the United States for decade, and
in theological circles he holds an emil
nent place. He was one OF the organ
izers and president Of the Worlds Par
lament of Religions in 1893, and he has
an international reputation as stu
dent and lecturer. He has just re-
turned from a lecture tour through
the principal cities of Asia, where he
met with large audiences every place
he visited.
The meeting was opened by Rev. Dr.
John Paul Egbert, pastor OF the
church, who introduced DR.. BarroWs
as an earnest Christian gentleman and
an aggressive Presbyterian, who has
returned from a long tour Of the en-
pires of Asia and, more particularly, OF
India, where he had labored zealously
in the interests of the Christian faith.
DR.. Barrows devoted himself to a
consideration of the merits of the dill
ferent religions in India, and he made
comparisons of their result upon the
people there with that of Christianity
upon it's followers. He gave graphic
portrayal of the social and moral con-
dition of people who are governed in
their spiritual life by the creeds of the
Orient, interspersing his remarks with
a graphic account of his trip through
India; his associations with the Amer
lean missionaries, laboring there in the
interests of Christianity, and the re-
ceptions he met with from the natives.
He had been forced to the conclusion
that Hindooism provided final saliva
ton for no man, so unlike Christianity
in this respect. The failure of the for
mer to save people was blazingly ap-
parent He spoke of the misconcep-
lions of the Christian religion in the
mind of the Indian, one of the chief
being that it was not universal re-
ligion. Religious fanaticism had driven
the Hindoo to the very depths OF
moral degradation and abuses and had
turned many Of their temples into
places of repulsive vulgarity and OBJ
gcenity But with all these deplorable
conditions, India could be redeemed
and it would be brought to Christianity
sooner or later through the efforts Of
missionaries. In that far off land,
America was magic word with the

SOCIAL SIDE OF 1T.
Delegates Entertained at a Session
in BOwIby Hall.

Last night the members of the local
lodges gave a thoroughly enjoyable

Supreme Representative j. F. Hilscher
was the main functionary at the ses-
sion, and after a brief introductory
speech, Grand Chancellors Schroeder, of
Wisconsin, and Botto, Of Colorado,
spoke briefly to the knights, telling
them that their domain was at once
one of the biggest and most progress
sive in the Western country. Both gen.
tlemen complimented the st. Paul
knights on the excellent showing made
at the convention, and for the credit
able manner in which the members Of
the grand lodge had been entertained.
It was stated that the present conven-
ton of the knights was the most sue
cessful vet held.

NEW YORK, Dec. IA dispatch to
the Herald from Madrid says:
A telegram from Palma announces
that General Weyler has paid a visit to
the Captain-General Of the Baleric
islands in consequence of an order from
that functionary. The visit lasted less
than a minute. General Weyler only
said: II have the honor to present my
self to your excellency," and then with
drew. The Captain General went to re-
turn the visit Immediately afterward
but General Weyler refused to receive
him and after waiting for half an hour
he went away.
The students endeavored to make a
demonstration, but were dispersed.
DISLIKE FILIBUSTERS.
MADRID. Dec. 1.-The Imparcial,
commenting today on the reports of the
alleged filibusterlng expedition of the
American steamer Dauntless, calls upon
Premier Sagasta to make energetic rep
resentation on the subject at Washing
ton, adding that the authorities there
must be informed of the bad impression
created in Spain by the frequent filibus-
tering expeditions"
The impartial adds: "The circum-
stances show lack of regard for Spain,
especially as the f1libustering expedi-
tions coincide with the new regime de-
creed for Cuba"
A military scandal is occupying the
attention Of the press. This is the at
titude which the chief officers of the
Madrid garrison have taken toward a
recently promoted officer, whom they re-
fuse to receive on the ground that his
advancement has been too rapid. No
names are given, but the incident coin
cides with a royal decree ordering
cavalry colonel off the garrison to be
transferred to the reserve.

China
SOME SALT FOR SEASONING
IS USED BY THE COoLER-HEADED
- TEuToNs
Evidence Is, Not Lacking That Ger.
many Intends Permanent oc-
cupation Of Kiao Chau
Associated Press Special Wire.


BERLIN, Dec. 1.-All sorts of wild
rumors are current here and at Kiel,
probably based in the main upon the
speech of Emperor William at the open
ing of the reichstag as to the relations
between Germany and China, but most
of these are discredited.
The National Zeitung has confirmed
the statement of the emperor that Ger
many's only object in the occupation at
Kiao Chau is to protect German missions
aries in China, and the alarming stories
are now taken with liberal allowances
of salt.
A sensation was caused today by a
report that the Chinese had massacred
200 German sailors belonging to the
German cruiser division in Kiao Chau
bay, but there has been no confirmation
of this, while the latest dispatches re-
ceived from Admiral Won Diederich,
commander of the division. which We're
dated the afternoon of November 2S,
make no reference to fighting at Kiao
Chau.
But the Berliner Tageblatt is respons-
ible for the statement that the additional
cruisers are now going to Kiao Chau
bringing the force up to ten ships with
1000 men and 12O guns. The same jour-
nal says also that force of marines, in
Guiding the crew Of the imperial yacht
Hohenzollern, Is going to Kiao Chau,
but there is no official confirmation Of
these assertions, although they are held
to indicate that permanent occupation
is intended, especially as it is understood
that China does not insist upon evacua-
tion.
The reichstag today selected Baron
Won Buol Berenberg to the presidency Ct
the house, and reelected the vice pres-
dents, Herren r. Schmidt and p. Shahn.
The next sitting of the reichstag will
take place on Friday.
TROUBLE AHEAD
LONDON, Dec 1T is reported here
in we'll informed circles that the views
of the Russian government have under
gone change as to the situation at Kiao
Chau bay.
Seeing the large force that Germany is
assembling there Russia is inclined,
with France, to oppose German action.
A special dispatch from Shanghai says
that nine men have been arrested for as
sisting in the murder of German mis-
sionaries.
1t is currently reported there that
France, Germany and Russia have en-
tered into compact for acquisition of
Chinese territory, Germany taking Han
Tung, Russia taking Korea and France
taking Fo Kien and F'ormosa.
The movements of the British and
Japanese fleets are supposed to indicate
suspicion as to the conduct of the other
powers. Japan objects to a German oc-
cupation of Kiao Chau until China has
paid the war indemnity.
1t is understood at Shanghai that Chi
ma will propose to refer the whole mat
ter to the powers for arbitration.
