TRINITY EPISCOPAL.
Rev. MT. Bisphnm Breaches on the Study
 of the Scriptures.

of the Scriptures.
 At the Trinity Episcopal church yes- terday morning the Rev. MT. Bispham preached on the text, Romans 15, 4. For whatsoever things were written of aforetlme were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope" The speaker said that students of the scrip lures at the present time may be divided into two classes, those who are ready to accept everything that students of refuse to give up the old landmark no matter what modern science has to say about them. Of the first class the preacher thought that they should not too easily give up their own opinion of the Bible. Very few could put together or describe the parts of telescope, but nearly every one is able to judge whether the telescope works right. So every one can judge in general way of the truth taught by the scripture. The other class of students should remem- her that there would be little use in searching the scriptures if nothing new is to be learned by so doing.
 If theologians were more considerate of the teaching of the text there would be less of the bitterness and bigotry SO commonly witnessed in theological dis cussion.
 It is not necessary that one should l understand all the detailed statements 1 in the Bible If the whole of it feeds his soul and brings him comfort and peace. l Three things are essential to the proper study of the Bible. First, to i commence the study without preaon- ceived ideas of what one is to learn. Second, not expect to find direct and | positive answers for all questions which one may raise. Third, one must read it with the purpose, getting help to lead a 1 spiritual life.

CaIedonian Club and Clan Mcleod Att
 tend Plymouth Church.
 Notwithstanding the very stormy nature of the weather last night there was very large turnout of the mem bers of Clan Mcleod and the Caledi- nian club for the purpose of attending their annual church service, which is held yearly on the nearest Sunday to St. Andrews day. The service was held at Plymouth Congregational church, the pastor, Rev. Dr. McLane, officiating. Rev. Dr. McLane, after welcoming the societies on behalf of himself and Plymouth church, said that he had chosen for the sermon Scotch story Sandy McPherson." The story was a very pathetic and touching one and was graphically told by the reverend
 gentleman. It dealt with a young Scotchman whose misdeeds compelled him to break away from the family cir
 cle in his Scottish home and seek to redeem his name and character in a foreign land. Rev. Dr. McLane told of the wanderers arrival in New York, and of his continued restless disposition
 after arriving in America. The preach CT took his hearers with him from place
 until the wandered finally landed at Denver, and Cripple Creek, where he was found by a younger brother who had left Scotland in search of him. The scene of the meeting of the broth CTS as depicted by Rev. Dr. McLane, was very touching one, and moved the majority of those present to tears. The story concludes with the return of the brothers to their native land and the death of the younger one, who was taken down with fever during the voy- age home, and who succumbed a few days after reaching Liverpool. Another touching part of the reverend doctors | remarks related to the return to his nativz parish of Sandy McPherson with his brothers body and the funeral ser | vices at which Sandy in the presence of all assembled announced his willing ness to make full amends for the past
 which he did by paying his debts and marrying the woman whom he deserted ! when he left his home.

Your correspondent having been sick for
the last two or three weeks was unable to
send any communications, and not having
recovered his usual health will be very brief
at this time.
Rev. w. A. Macdonald preached his first
sermon since conference at New Oakland on
Sunday last to a goodly number, but was
much surprised on reaching that appoint
ment in finding what he terms three of the
pillars of the church missing. We are sorry
such was the case, but think the bretaern had
good excuses. However as the Sunday school
was to be reorganized, there was enough to
go through with that part of the program even
if the "piars'' of the church was not there.
Following is list of officers to serve the en-
suing year: o. P. Philips, elected by quart
erly conference; superintendent, c. S. Mccoy;
assistant, w. Ii. Shipley; secretary, Walter
Boon; librarian, Miss Kate Jones, and Miss
Ella Shipley, organist. Everybody interested
in Sunday schoo work is cordially invited to
co cooperate with the officers and make this
the best school for years. The hour for
school is $50. Don't forget the hour.

Jersey Democratic Wave.

New Jersey Democrats found cause for re-
joicing on Wednesday. At almost every
point where elections were held on Tuesday
and party lines were drawn at all there were
Democratic gains. The Republican mana
gers are i'll at ease over the results. for there
is no installing the signs. The State seems
to be swinging back to Democracy, where it
stood so many years, and the chances for
Democratic Governor and Democratic
United States Senator seem stronger than
ever. The quiet influence of United States
Senator james Smiths friends has been at
work through bout the state, and they declare
that his reelection is aloregone conclusion.
Republicans lay the blame for the crushing
defeat they suffered to President Mckinley.
The big Republican majorities that were
given for Mckinley in 1896 were wiped out
and majorities almost as great were given for
the Democratic candidates
