They Are Slow in Healing, but No Doubt Is
Entertained of His Recovery.
The wounds which Brig. Gen. William 8.
Worth received in the fehting before Santiago
are not healing 80 rapidly as was hoped. but Of
his ultimate recovery no doubt is entertained.
Nearly three, weeks ago Gen. Worth was re-
moved from his home on Governors Island to
the private hospital OF DR.. John A. Wyeth. at
10 West Thirty-ffth street. lust after he was
taken to the hospital 1t was found that when
the wound In his right arm was originally
dressed the surgeon failed to remove a piece
Of the sleeve Of his blouse about four inches
square. The wound was cut open again and
the bit Of cloth taken out. Since then three
other pieces Of the sleeve have been taken from
the wound.
The wounds which Gen. Worth received in
the chest are healing nicely. 1t was reported
yesterday. but those In the arm have not even
begun to heal yet. Tho bones have knitted.
however. and the healing is simply o matter Of
time. DR.. Wyeth believes that Gen. Worth will
recover the full use Of his arm.

Il. Cor. h:9-was the
text from which Rev. c. ]. K. Jones
preached yesterday morning at the Church
of the Unity. The subject of the sermon
was Earthly Possibilities"
The thoughtful man will recognize that,
more things happen in this world than are
dreamed of in our philosophy" The stu
dent in every branch of knowledge is aware
of this great fact, that however much Is
known, only partial beginning has been
made in any department of science. So
we know nothing YET as we shall know it.
And what we know today we must revise
and amend tomorrow, and this because
tomorrow brings its increase in detail and
variety of circumstances. The splendid
dreams of the past are fast becoming the
activities of the present, and the end is not
yet. The world of truth and of knowledge
and OF morals yet to be revealed far sur
passes the sum of what men have achieved.
Such is the confident looking forward and
outward Of the great students of the pres
ent. The air, the sunshine and the earth
are full of unrealized possibilities. Men
who find fault with the way the world is
made little realize what exquisite balanc-
ings Of forces and infinite conditions are

Y. q, A, Gospel Service

The gospel service at the Young Women's
Christian association yesterday afternoon
was the first since the vacation season and
was well attended.
The singing was led by Mrs. H. g. Fletch-
er and two selections we're rendered by a
quartet from the Memorial Baptist church
known as the hospital quartet. from con-
slant service at the county hospital on
Sunday afternoons.
Mrs. Frank A. Dewey, president OF the
association, spoke on the subject, THE
Plant of Love-" Her remarks were based
on two verses-"Behold, what manner OF
love the Father hath bestowed on u.s." and
that plaintive cry of the Saviour-"O Jeru-
salem, Jerusalem, how often would have
gathered thy children together, as hen
doth gather her brood under her wings. and
We would mott" From these texts she
showed that the love of the Father is for
all, but all will not accept His great and
wonderful offer, hence the grief of the
Savior like unto that of mother when her
child spurns her love.
She made the practical application that
while the Christian life Is joyous one,
and no one has so great reason for wear
ing a cheerful. happy countenance as the
Christian, yet the fact that so many others
turn away from this proffered love should
cause sorrow in the heart Of every true
follower of Christ. Not only that, but be-
cause so many reject Him, every disciple
should be ever ready to point to the way.
