And suffer with our suffering land
For conscience sake.

Enowest Thou How to Begin Life9

Rev. DIR. Hall thus wisely speaks to
young people: "There are two ways of
setting up in life. One is to begin
where your parents are ending-mag-
niticent mansion, splendid furniture
and elegant turnout. Is not that the
pretty dream Of many about their start
in life? The other is to begin little
nearer the point where father and
mother--of blessed memory-began.
You see, my young friend, you can go
up SO easily and gracefully if events
show it to be safe, but it would be try
ing and awkward to come down. And
it costs much now to live, and business
fuctuates, and health is uncertain, and
temptations from the side of pride are
strong, and many a young man who did
not mean to be extravagant has been
led along, and rather than face the posi-
ton and descend manfully has tried to
keep up the embezzlement and been
called 'swindler.' -

The Rev. Joseph V. Common recently
lectured in st. Teresa's Church, Broad
and Catherine streets, on "John Wesley
and Methodism. He spoke, in part,
M follows:
The tolerant spirit of Wesley ap-
pears in his comment on the conversion
of his nephew to Roman Catholicism.
Some one regretted the converts
'chHnge of religion. BE. has changed
his opinions and mode of Worship,
said Wesley, but he has not changed
his religion; for religion ia faith work
ing by love and producing righteous
ness. peace and joy in the Holy Ghost
The religious controversies and dis
sensions of his day elected from him
an advice in Christians which is
equally applicable to our own times:
Christians should act as the herds on
the Swiss mountains act when wolves
attack them. Instead of gorlng one
another they unite. form close battal-
ion and face the enemy on all sides.
Cardinal Manning praised the
Methodists for their great love Of our
Lord. He believed that they did incaI.
culanle good among the humber classes
of England, that find no attractions in
the Established Church. He wrote a
book on the holy Ghost in the Church
of England, which gave offence to the
narrow minds that would limit the
work of the Spirit to their village
chapel. The catholic and spiritual view
ia that God continuously pleads with
the souls of all men. Wesley incurred
the odium of many for saying that the
heathen, who has not heard of Christ,
is saved by keeping the natural moral
law.
Robert Southey, in his Life Of wss-
ley. had the bad taste and worae judg-
ment to attempt to explain Wesley's
marvellous ministry by ascribing it's
effects 10 the animal excitement and
nervous temperament OF his bearers.
Whence is this marvellous spirit Of
bigotry which caused the Pharisees to
ascribe to Satan the words Of ChristY
Wesley rescued England from heathen-
Ism. The historian Lecky says that the
London OF the eighteenth century was
BIS brutal, Ignorant and immoral as
Dahdmey. The rural districts may not
have been more corrupt. but they were
more ignorant of God and the Bible than
the capital. Into this valley of death
went john Wesley, in the power OF the
Holy Ghost. His preaching retained

"Wesley'a spiritual life was pro-
ioundly influenced by the writings of
ST Ignatius Loyola, the founder Of the
Jesuits. These two great religious
thinkers and workers had similar traits
of character, and their religious expert
ence was remarkably alike. 1t is a pity
that Wesley mistook a caricature for
the real Roman Catholic Church. Still,
we must make great allowance for the
effects, on any mind, OF two centuries
of anti Catholic vituperation. The
monstrous IDEA that the Pope is anti
Christ remained on so fair and intelli-
gent mind as Cardinal Newman's up
to his 40th year.
Both Loyola and Wesley had the &C.
cent of intense, personal conviction in
their preaching. Both had been saved
from the wrath to come and they

terday brakeman fought for his life
with ilagman who had become Sid
denly insane.
The brakeman saved his life by a
hairs breadth. He was thrown from
the train and lay for a time stunned
and sorely bruised across the adjoining
tracks. When he recovered conscious
ness another freight train was thunder,
ing down upon him. He managed I'd
crawl out OF its way just as 1t swept
by him, the wheels missing him by
barely an inch.
Joseph Kessler, the brakeman, lives
at Bordsntown. Simpson Perrine. the
fiagman, has his home in Dutch Neck.
The freight train was running FROM
Camden to Jersey City. 1t was nearing
Railway and rushing along at 30 mlea
an hour when Perrinc's mad tit came
upon him. He seized a coupling pin and
without word Of warning dashed II
Kessler.
Both men were then standing on tnp
of the same car So sudden was the ltS
tack that Kessler had no time to turn
and run. He ducked his head. escaping
the blow that might have crushed his
head, and then seized the madma1

Then ensued a fierce struggle. Kess-
Ter did not cry out. He knew there was
faint hope Of making himself heard, and
he needed all his breath for what ID
seemed to him was wrestle for life.
Each etrove to maintain his footing
and throw the other from the train
Perrine's frenzy lent him strength,
Kessler felt himself being overpawered.
With a desperate effort he shook HIM
self loose from the manlac's grasp,
turned and ran toward the cabaose, az
the tail end of the train.
The mailman followed him. 1t had
now become a race for life. over thu
cars they ran at fun speed. leapinG

When only one car separated him
from the caboose Eessler stumbled. In
a moment Perrine was upon him. Then
he felt himself failing and remembered
no more until the noise of ar approach-
ing freight train sounded in his ears.
and he crawled of the tracks just In
time to escape being cut in two.
Somebody on the train saw him. 10
was stopped after it had passed him,
and he was taken on board and told hia

Meanwhile. on the other train, Per-
rine had entered the caboose and made
