law. In the kingdom of truth upon
earth he leaves every man free to utter
spurious coin if he will, and come off
unpublished.
1t was not always thus in Christen-
dom. Only few centuries back men
had a standard of Christian life and
worship. They might not. indeed, live
up to it, but they never claimed the
right to set 1t aside. God had establish
ed it. man might not tear 1t down. The
change came when men denied the SUI
preme judicial power of Gods accred-
tied representatives. The written law
was set up as the court of last appeal.
Such step was uneXampled In the an
nails of Christianity.
From the very outset the results
were fatal Men began at once to dis
agree as to what Jesus Christ taught.
AS there was no tribunal or authority
of any kind by which to decide the mo-
mentous question they have gradually
fallen into a state of apathy about it,
and the Christian faith is become for
millions a mere matter of opinion. All
the theories that have since been adopt
ed by various Christian bodies were hit
upon with the hope of repairing that
fatal mistake. The. hundreds of sects
into which Christian men outside the
church are divided prove how utterly
those theories have failed In religion
we agree to differ is the sad formula
that they have reached at last. OF this
state Of mind indifferentism is the nat
ural outcome.
The conclusion is plain. God wishes
all men to come to the knowledge OF
the truth. Therefore we cannot be in
different to the truth. To teach this
truth to men God sent his only begotten
son, whose apostles in their successors
continue his work throughout all time.
Therefore we cannot be Indifferent to
recognize this principle of all authors
tative standard as the only true one.
1t is much more imperative in our relig
ious life. The indifferenyist is in con-
tradiction with himself He respects
some of Gods commandments and re-
jects others that are equally binding.
No commandment is more solemnly
announced than that of faith for "he that
believeth not shall be condemned. I"
Having abandoned the Catholic church
humanity's Goo given guide, little won-
der is it that men have strayed from the
path to heaven. When they return to
that guidance their feet will once more
be set securely in the blessed way.

SENIOR BERNARDO o'HlGGINs.
The Man After Whom the Bnttleship
fa Named.

The Man After Whom the Dnttlcship
is Named.
A great deal of interest has been
aroused among persons who are not ia
miliar with Chilian history by the name
of the Chilian battleship O'Eiiggins, the
finest fighting vessel now available for
purchase by the United States, Spain or
any other country desiring to thus in
crease its navy. 1t has been reported
that both this country and Spain have
been negotiating for the purchase of the
ship, but Chilli is not anxious to sell, as
she expects trouble with Argentine.
Bernardo O'Higgins, the Chiian hero
after whom the battleship is named, led
the Chilian forces during the years in
which the country fought for and won
independence from Spain. He was
president and dictator from 1876 until
1923. O'Iliggins was the son Of Ambro-
sio O'Higgins, Marquis de- Osorno, po.r
lrishman, who went to South America
to become a priest, but after a varied
career finally rose to be president of
Chill under Spanish domination, and also
became Viccroy of Peru.
The son organized a regiment as soon
as the Insurgents declared independence
in Chilli in 1870 His selection as head
of the army was made by junta op
posed to Carrera as dictator, but no
demonstrated his bravery and military
knowledge on many occasions. Once, be-
ing deserted by the main body of the
army, he cut his way through Spanish
lines, his 1900 faithful followers being
reduced to 200. BY good gcncralship on
land and by encouragement of the naval
operations of Escalada he achieved in
dependence, but resigned as dictator in
consequence Of dissensions, and retired
to Peru, where he died in 1886, at the
age of GG years.

A SERIOUS RUNAWAY.

A runaway horse belonging to John D. Chittenden of North Guilford created considerable excitement about noon yes- terday. MT. Chttenden was driving through York streets, from Elm to Chapel streets. His horse was attach ed to light farm wagon. Near the corner of York and Chapel streets he turned toward the other side of the street and was crossing the track in from of Fair Haven and Westville street car, when the horse became frightened from the ringing.of the gong. The animal gave a quick lunge forward and MT. Chittenden was thrown from the wagon, lighting on his head.
 The horse ran across Chapel street and down York, taking the sidewalk soon after crossing Chapel street.
 Mrs. Frederick P. States, wife of the local N. r., N. H. and H. R. R. ticket agent, was walking down York street from Chapel on that side of the street. She heard the horse coming, but before she could escape it struck her and knocked her to one side. When she was picked up she was several feet distant from where the horse struck her.
 Mrs. States was taken into the dis pensary. When it was found that she was not dangerously injured, she was taken to her home, block below. Her face was bruised, and it was feared that a rib was fractured.
 In front of the New Haven dispensa- ry, the horse, with the wagon still at tached collided with a tree. This freed him from the wagon, which was over turned and the axle broken. With one shaft hanging to him the horse ran down the sidewalk to Crown street, and collided with the wagon of Taylor, Ev- erett & Go.
 The runaway horse was finally caught at the corner of Dwight and Chapel streets by Frank c. Baldwin of AS Hotchl1iss street. Most of the way the horse was running on the sidewalk and at rapid gait.
 MT. Chittenden was picked up and taken into the office of Dr. E. F. Mo Intosh, 1O2 York street. It was at first tured, as he was unconscious, and there was a bad cut on his scalp. He was revived, however. He was bruised about the body, but no bones were broken.
