A Social and Religious Need.

One Of the ways in which religious
revival has already shown tokens of it's
coming is in the growing recognition
of the social meanings of religion
Hitherto religion has given much of it's
thought to the future. but now it is
turning more and more to the problems
of the present and especially to the eff
fort to unity and inspire social life. The
great social need of the present, as well
as the great religious need, is for such
axonseNtion of life and its obligations
Twill bring men into harmony with
ch other, SO that they may realize
at all their interests are mutual and
smmon The brotherhood of men is
huch spoken of now, and we find the
\ ointment noble and inspiring one,
Int we must come to see that it has the
Deepest and widest meanings which re-
igion can anywhere find Itimplies all
other things which religion can posi-
Ibly mean. and to put it into actual life
is the one promise for religion in the
future. Christian Register.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR.
! For the Week Beginning Jan.

Comment by Rev. S. 81. Doyle.
sPIu Fishers of mem how to win souls
i'm. ". l-8. "a question box meeting sug
eG~)
h the topical reference we have the
Eemn charge of Paul to Timothy in re-
hrd to his work as pastor of the church
It Ephesns. 1t has particularly to do
with his work in relation to the unsaved
Ibis work as fisher of men or as a
soul winner. Paul's solemn words are
lot only applicable to all ministers, but
10 all Christians, for all have duty to
5erform to the nnsaved There is an OBJ
! igation resting upon every disciple Of
Christ to do what he can to lead the I'M
saved to Christ.
4 The Importance of performing this
Christian duty is emphasized by the
fact that God in Christ will hold us re-
sponsible Solemnly in the name of God
and of the Lord Jesus Christ, who should
judge the living and the dead at His
second coming. Paul entreats Timothy
80 perform his duty Christ would hold
him responsible, and this should urge
him to earnestness and fidelity. Christ
will hold us responsible for our duty to
the unsaved also Many are unsaved
about us We have duty to perform
toward them Christ will hold us re-
sponsibie Are we fulfilling the duty
that we owe toward the unsaved about
rs?
Paul's method of soul winning is the
preaching of the word of God. Preach
- f,1 nd ont
of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with
all long suffering and doctrine. !" Con-
slant, earnest. practical, patient and
loving application of Gods work is
Paul's one method of soul winning. 1t
is the one method of soul winning that
should be used today. To lead men to
Christ we must get the word of God
into their minds and hearts and lives.
With love in our hearts toward all who
are unsaved we should go to them with
the word of God and plainly and ten
derby press the claims of God in Christ
apon them. prove to them from the
word of God their condition as sinners,
show them the love of God in Christ,
and Gods willingness and ability to
0Eences of sin. If we cannot thus talk
Axaer eqrselves, we can invite them to
Ehe house of God. when they can have
the power of Gods word applied to
them.
There was great necessity for Paul's
solemn charge to Timothy. Men were
falling away from sound doctrine.
What a necessity for the same reason
todayl When we realize how much
false teaching and false philosophy is
abroad in the world today, we can get
an idea of the pressing need of urging
Gods word upon men Paul was faith
full in doing it, and at the end of life,
as he calmly looked into the future, he
saw only blessedness and JOY before him
and for all those who like him had been
faithful to Christ

THE VAN WICK BOOM.
CROKER AND MURPHY THINK THEY CAN
NOMINATE HIM FOR GOVERNOR.

The Murphy Croker combination. the faction Of
the Democratic party that is opposed to the leader
ship OF ex Senator Hill Is seriously contemplating
going 10 the Syracuse convention with Mayor Van
wyck as Il candidate for the nomination for Gov
ernor In fact a Democrat Of influence, and one
who stands high in the confidence OF this FACTION
of the Democratic party, announced yesterday That
such a decision had been reached. None OF the
leaders could be induced to confirm the report. and
all were wary in discussing the matter. Since
Richard Croker returned to this country and took
charge Of the Tammany interests he has announced
repeatedly. when asked about the matter: Tam
many Hall has candidate yet. When the time
comes Tammany Will be for the best man. the most
available man. and the man who in Tammany's
estimation. has the best chance 20 win. He would
doubtless have made this reply II the question had
been asked him yesterday. but II he had gone fur
ther and expressed himself. he would have probably
added. "and that man is Mayor Van Wyck."
II was learned yesterday that time ago the
Murphy Croker faction took up the question Of the
advlsab!lity of making Mayor Van Wyck a cand-
date. Leaders from all the State have been
sounded how they would regard the nomina-
tion Of the Mayor for Governor. When the Demo-
cratic editors and Democratic leaders from up the
State came here last week 10 meet Senator McCar-
rem and discuss the situation with him. each one
was asked about the Van Wyck boom. In hardly
a single instance. it has been learned, was any
really strong objection to him raised While his
candidacy. it said. did not arouse enthusiasm
those ted said he would make a satisfactory
candidate. In view Of this. his stock has taken a
sudden jump. and yesterday there were many poll
ticlans who were willing wager that he WOULD De
