I eStinony of
the Resurrection,

aye shall be my Witnesses" Acts i: 8,
was the text oil Rev. Louis C. Sanford OF
Selma at ST. Paurs Episcopal Church yes
terday. Among other things he said:
"This commission was issued to the
church by our Lord just before his ascen-
sion. His followers were to be witnesses
to all the world of his resurrection. The
WORD witness is used first in the historical
sense meaning an eyewitness that Jesus
showed himself alive after his passion by
many infalIible proofs. 1t is also used in
an ethical sense referring to the testimony
which the first Christians should bear in
their upright and self-denying lives to the
resurrection, a fact OF the greatest moral
significance. For Us the character of the
historical testimony has changed. In
stead of eye witnesses we must produce
their writings. But the ethical testimony
cannot change 1t demands the same faith,
hope and devotion it demanded of the
apostles themselves.
The Christians faith is an element in
his ethical testimony to the resurrection.
Our faith in God is faith in righteousness.
Had we no knowledge of God we cklId
have no faith In righteousness. The
Christian hope is a second element in the
ethical witness to Christ. This life is a
real one, but since Christ has risen the
future life is more real. This life is a pro.
baton in which we are preparing for a
life n OF of individual unconsciousness, like
the Buddhist. but for one of the intensest
consciousness.
I'm the third place, since the resurrec-
ton has proved the worth of love and
made life of sacrifice the ideal life OF the
race, our Christian love is the third ele-
ment in our ethical testimony to the
resurrection. A life of love is the strono-
est evidence we can bear to his truth and
power. Such testimony is no less valu-
able than that of the martyrs, for the
great witness of the church must be made
up of infnitesimal acts of love indefinitely

CONGREGATIONAL Church Rev. J. Clarke
Robbins upbraided in vigorous Language
Cam bridge University for refusing any
longer to grant degrees to women. lie
took Miriam of old as the fist type OF
what is commonly known as the new
woman"
He went on to point out the qualities OF
unwomanliness in Miriam, such as the
desire to rule over men, to look like man
ana to wear mans clothes. Returning to
the defense of the womanly woman, he
upheld the virtuous desires that prompt
her to forge ahead and to rival men IN the
development of the intellect.
He said the type of new woman such as
Miriam represents does not suggest any
thing of womapliness, of gentleness, love
OF devotion and sweetness, but rather the
spirit to boss other women, and, as lar as
she can, to boss men.
She was the first woman On record to
dispute mans superiority to women.
There are new women and new women.
There are women of all types, but the
woman who wants to be q man, who
wants to wear mans clothes, to look and
act like a man, finds but little room.
Even on the stage people soon tire OF her;
she may venture too far, presume too
much. 1t is ridiculous, foolish thing for
a woman to work for equal rights, just to
show that she is the equal of any man.
The story of Cam bridge debarring wo-
men from taking degrees there reads like
an anachronism when we consider that 1t
transpired st this time of the nineteenth
century. The fact that such question
has arisen shows that the women under
graduates have the requisite ability TO win
a degree and that it is the bigotry and me-
dival prejudices that refuse 1t to them.
Where was the chivalry of those British
scions who gave prolonged applause for
the vote that said, No woman in Cam
bridge shall receive the honors she has
won?
How far can such an institution OF
learning be said to meet its great end
when the university life is so far behind
the spirit OF the age? The suffrage ques-
ton met defeat in California because the
men knew the women were in the right
and that if they were granted suffrage the
death warrant would be read over their
criminal factories of reform.

Rev. H. T. Shepard on
"The True Education u

The Rev. 81. L. Shepard delivered a ser
mon at the Olivet Congregational Church
yesterday on the subject of Education. ("
In the course of his remarks he said:
The error of many who condemn edu-
cation lies in mistaking a part for the
whole knowledge and skill are blamed
for mans misuse of them. When educa-
ton does not make man more useful
and successful and true to himself and the
world, it is imperfect or misdirected. 1t
is not education. The fault is the edu.
Gators or his own. Wise education is al
ways blessing.
Perfect education in civil government
would make it impossible for Turkey to
repeat its chapter of lnhuman carnage
against defenseless Armenian Christians.
II would arouse all friends of liberty to
Cuba's support in their heroic struggle
for freedom from Spanish oppression.

SIXTH STREET TO RALLY,

a Stirring Call to
Arms.
A Mass Meeting to Be Held Tonight
to Whoop Up Things and Help
the Thoroug fare.

The following stirring call to meeting
to take place this evening has been issued
by the Sixth street Improvement Club:
To the Si1th-street Property Otpners - DEAR
SIRS: Permit us 10 address you in behalf of our
efforts. You must certainly be aware OF the
existence of our organization, composed as it
Is solely OF the merchants who are your ten
ants. In perusing the morning papers of re-
cent dates you no doubt have read of the en-
terprise, zeal and unselfish ardor that we dis
play in promoting and furthering the best in
terests OF the street
San Francis co is awakening from her
lethargic state. That seeming chronic COM
plant, inertia, that disease that so long i'm
peded the onward march of our community,
has been driven forever from our midst. The
cry OF the hour is progress, improvement, for
ward. Streets and sections innumerabe have
organized and amalgamated. Before this
mighty irresistible array of unity every OBJ
stacle and every obstruction OF silurianism
has been swept aside.
Shall Sixth street be included in this mighty
upheaval of public enterprise or shall she be
thrust back to the igDominious condition OF
'Rotten Row.
Shall Sixth street, one of the iairest jewels
in the diadem OF realty, be, as virtually she
should be, in the van of this onward sweep, or
must she endure the contempt OF our City as a
"has been"
The position of your tenants in this mat
ter is self-evident ''Whst is your position?'
Every improvement on Sixth street is an i'm
provement 10 your property.
Bobtail cars and cobble-paved streets detract,
electric lines and bituminous pavements en-
hance. To improve the street and enhance
your realty; induce the retnrn of the patron
age winch has departed but which by all y1r-
tue belongs to US; 10 keep abreast with the
times-that is the goal we strive to attain.
Your cooperation in his matter is imperative.
The City Fathers will not accord US the
proper recognition without your Identified
ton. The removal of one of our heretofore
stead1est and representative merchants OF the
street must arouse you TO full realization oi
obvious defects.
We ask you in all fairness and justice to join
our ranks-to lend your voice and presence 70
the consummatiop of this most vital project
You are respectfully invited to attend a
grand meeting TO be held at Music Hall, cor
ner Mission and Mary streets, between Filth
and sixth, Tuesday evening, February 9, 1897,
at O'Clock sharp. We will not waste the
evening with desultory preliminaries and argu'
ments. Yours respectfully,
