Rev. ID. l.. Mackenzie. of the First Lu-
theran Church, preached a sermon yester-
day morning on the pending treaty between
the United States and England. He was
i'm favor of such a treaty. but thought it
should be carefully examined by the Senate
before it became a law. Said he:
mo one desires perpetual treaty of peace
between England and the United States
more than l. but our liberties have been
purchased at a tremendous cost. The prin-
ciples embodied in that glorious flag of
ours must not be imperiled by a treaty
hastily signed. One bright lawyer and a
President who has by no means shown
that he would be safe man under all cir
cumstances ought not to be permitted TO
bind this mighty Nation by treaty TO con-
dtions that might work disastrously toward
this Nation. England has never, that L
know Of, done anything that entities her to
be taken to our bosom without suspecting
that she might be seeking 10 secure some
personal advantage TO our great dscom-
fort. By all means that are honorable let
us have peace with England and all nations.
but let us carefully weigh the bearing of
such a treaty with reference TO all the in
terests of this Nation before we put the final
seal upon IL.

CHINESE MISSIONS.
Charles II. Studd Describes COndi-
tions in the FlOwery Kingdom.

Charles T. Studd of England who has
been active in the missionary work, home
and foreign, made an eloquent appeal at
the First Baptist Church last night for
workers in the foreign field. Mr. Studd has
spent several years in China and told of
the misery and degradation he witnessed
there due to the ignorance. superstition
and heathensm of the natives. He said
that in England and America, with a popu-
lation of about 100, 900 600. there are 80, 900
ordained ministers In China, with popu-
lation of 400 O0O.O 900. there are but five hum
dred ordained ministers. He spoke of the
great need for missionaries TO go to this
country to spread the light of the gospel
the only thing that can save the nation
from sinking deeper and deeper into dark
ness. Mr.. Studd reminded his hearers that
$500 years ago China was The most power
full nation of the world with literature or
her own, with science and art highly de-
Veloped, and stood first among tine nations
of the earth. At that time England was
one of the noorest and weakest. To-day
the conditions are reversed. China has be-
come the weakest and most degraded
while England stands among the most pow
erful. America, he thought owed all her
greatness to the gospel OF Christ. People
often thought that Confucianism was good
enough for China; that ii was all well
enough to preach the gospel of Christ in
America and England. but the best thing
to leave China and other heather nations
to their own religions. If such people could
but catch a glimpse of the conditions or
those countries they would no longer hold
to such ideas. he declared.
Mr. Studd talked interestingly of his ex-
periences in China. He had found the ma
tives eager to learn when an interest had
once been aroused. Their desire TO work
for their own people was pathetic. AT the
expense of becoming outcasts from home
and families. they went about preaching
the new faith. The church conducted by
Mr. Studd was the only one within i'm
mense territory. He said that as soon as
the Chinese were converted they went
away. two three together. to preach in
other cities so that in the time he spent
there there grew TO be a circle of native
missionaries working in the cities about
him.

President Mckinley has disappoint-
ed those who have said that he was at
a disagreement with his gold-standard,
sound-money Secretary OF the Treas
ury. In his annual message, which
was read to Congress on Monday the
President fairly meets the paramount
issue in American politics by strongly
urging the right kind Of currency re-
form, including the practical retire
ment OF the treasury notes. In view OF
the strong opposition in the senate, it
is hardly possible that his recommen-
dations will be enacted into law: but
the message places the administration
before the country as favoring the
breaking of the endless chain by
which the treasury may be depleted OF
