SIMPSON TABERNACLE
Song and Missionary Service Last
Evening

Last evening Simpson tabernacle was
filled upstairs and down. Profs. Excel
and Gabriel led a song service, and Rev.
George S. Bovard, presiding elder of
Los Angeles district, offered &>prayer.
DR.. Hartley in a few remarks alluded
feelingly to the great work Bishop Nc
Cabe had done for the church as sec
retary of the Missionary society, in
which position he was able to send the
gospel into all the world.
In continuing his remarks DR.. Hartley
spoke of the universality of salvation.
Christ died for every man, and He COM
manded His disciples to go into all the
world and preach the gospel to every
creature. Surely in their preaching the
disciples became missionaries, carrying
the gospel to all nations. And all down
through the centuries God has been rails
ing UP some men filled with the mission
ary spirit. All we hold dear in our
hearts, all we hold dear in our coun-
try beneath the stars and stripes, we
owe to the gospel of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Bishop McCabe also made short ad
dress on Loyalty to Christ" In illus
tration he spoke pf the great leaders who
have been able to inspire loyalty in their
followers to do and die for the cause
they represented; so Jesus expects us
to be loyal to Him and be ready for any
duty for our Christ. In closing Bishop
McCabe said:
II want to turn prophet tonight, and
my prophecy is this: The day is arriv-
ing when the rum power will be over
thrown, and when that day comes it will
be great victory for the people of God"

BELIEF IN RIGHTEOUSNESS
How It Modifies Prevailing ideas Re-
garding Agencies of Salvation

At Caledonia hall yesterday morning
the pastor, Rev. A. A. Rice, spoke on
How the Belief in Righteousness
Modifies the Prevailing Ideas Regard
ing the Agencies of Salvation" Matthew.
iii, Is: at becometh us to fulfill all
righteousness" In brief Mr.. Rice said:
The great theological disturbance of
the present decade is occasioned by a
growing belief in Righteousness as the
basis of Gods economy.
Men are coming to believe, as the
Master did, that 1T becometh us to full
fill all righteousness" Righteousness is
being fulfilled in theology, as well as in
life. The agencies and means which
have formerly been used for the saliva
ton of men must be changed or dis
carded at the advent of the belief that
character, which is synonymous with
righteousness, is the true and only basis
of life.
The doctrine that the penalty or pun
ishment of mans sin, which has been
declared to be endless is to be remitted,
either by the vicarious sacrifice of a
Christ, or repentance, or both, has no
foothold or standing-room when righte-
business is reigning supreme in the mind.
ever a man soweth that shall he also
reap" and it also declares that an acute
conscience. or penalty, is the greatest
blessing vouchsafed man. The gospel
augments the punishment of sin, and
only attempts to do away with it when
sin ceases.
Righteousness also will not permit the
belief that death ends probation. In
fact, probation has nothing to do with
the case. Character is formed by
growth, and no character is perfect in
one age. The other world is necessary
as this for for the making perfect Of
man. Death-bed repentance, as well as
any other, is but one step on the stair
way of life. Bad men are to be saved
by changing their education, which
means change Of heredity and en-
vironment, and knowledge of the life
and love of Jesus.

WALKING WITH GOD
Central Presbyterian Church-Rev.
John R. Jones

At the Central Presbyterian church
yesterday Rev. j. r. Jones spoke on
walking With God,' taking as his text
Genesis v:24: And Enoch walked with
God and he was not, for God took him. -
Mr.. James said in part: "The fifth
chapter of Genesis is a monotonous rec
ord of births and deaths Again and
again the changes are rung until the
repetition becomes wearisome. With
startling emphasis, however, is i'm
pressed the lesson of the certainty of
death.
But out of the desert of names
springs up the white flower of blame
less life. Enoch lived and passed away,
but so different from the lives about him
was his, so much higher his ideals and
so much purer his standard of living,
that we are told he walked with God
and he was not, for God took him.
walking with God implies reconcil-
iation. Purity and impurity cannot
dwell together. Honor and dishonor
cannot clasp hands Holiness and sin
fulness are debarred fellowship Be-
tween God and man a great gulf had
opened. In the Garden of Eden Adam
feared the presence of God and hid him
self. Cain and Abel sought by sacrifice
to propitiate the offended majesty OF
the Almighty.
"The awful holiness of the Creator was
an effectual barrier to the advance Of
sinful creatures. But with Enoch all
this was changed. God and man were
reconciled, for reconciliation must pre-
cede companionship. Walking with
God means fellowship, a fellowship that
brings peace and is felt at every point
of life's journey
'The Nile does not reach the Mediter-
ranean because it falls over several cat.
sracts, but because it winds it's course
persistently and continuously. Every
portion of the stream tends seaward
Walking with God means progression
Travelling in circle is aimless, and, ex
cept for exercise, useless. He who
walks with God gets somewhere He is
farther on today than yesterday. A,
each step new beauties unravel them

should be brought into use AZ factors in
determining what Is true and what our
duty to ourselves and our fellows. Blind
faith must be discarded and neither can
we depend simply on the report OF the
senses. Theosophy brings to the world
an outline of the great truths Of the uni
verse. These truths are not to be cred
ulously accepted, but are to be taken as
probable explanations of the worlds
mysteries, and every statement made
can and should be verified by all stu
dents Of the laws of being.
You can prove for yourself all these
truths by making the proper effort. Ma
ture scatters no priceless pearls on the
surface of thought, but hides them and
leaves us to search. To him that knock
eth it shall be opened. The two great
principles of theosophy, Karma and
reincarnation, rationalize the heretofore
incoherent. jumbling universe.

AN UNEQUAL CONFLICT
Rev. David Walk at the Church of
Christ

Rev. David Walk, in the Church of
Christ, on Eighth street near Central
avenue, read yesterday morning Jere-
miah kills, and announced as the sub
ject of his sermon "An Unequal Con-
flict." The best view of life is that it is
a training school. Christ is an infallible
teacher The cramming process is not
in favor. 1t takes time to learn anything
worth knowing, and time means expe-
rience. Enjoyment is a question of ca
pacity. If we could not suffer we could
not enjoy. The most susceptible souls
suffer most. but they also enjoy most.
The eye takes in everything within its
range, whether beautiful or repulsive.
The same nerves vibrate to opposite
sensations. The capacity to love in
wolves the capacity to hate. The same
tongue blesses or curses. BY use the
senses are exercised to discern good and
evil. The. educated eye perceives where
the uncultivated eye only sees. The
processes of God are slow. He is never
in a hurry. Feverish haste is charac-
teristic of the age. We are impatient of
results. We want to be contending with
horses when we ought to be running
with footmen: we are eager for the
swelling of Jordan though ready to
faint in the land of peace.
What a blessed thing that the expert
ences of life are veiled! 1 am glad that
the young do not know what is before
them. 1t would crush them. God lets
the light break gradually. Even Christ
was made perfect through suffering.
We must not shrink to share in the fell
lowship of his sufferings. The probable
tiles are that greater trials await us
than any which we have known. We
need to be prepared for them. If the
burdens of the present are too heavy,
how shall we bear those which are heav-
ier? Left to ourselves, the conflict is
unequal; with Christ to help us. the vic
tory is assured.

West1ake Park

OF all the public resorts in the city
Westlake park yesterday afternoon
could boast of the largest gathering.
The lovely summer weather had drawn
to it a crowd larger than any that has
been seen there on Sundays since the
resumption by the Seventh Regiment
band of it's popular concerts. The con-
course of carriages and buggies contain
ing people decked out for holiday was
exceedingly great. While the mass of
listeners near the band stand could not
have been less than 1000 or 5000, the en-
tire park was fairly filled with prone
naders. The musical program was good
and it's execution without a blemish.
All the sailing boats were chartered. al
though there was no wind to speak of,
and in the rowboats which dotted the
lake pleasure seekers were industriously
covering their hands with blisters pull
ing the oars with a frenzy that the hot

yesterday afternoon was THE Good
Shepherd" After solo, 1.-THE Ninety
and Nine" by the leader, and reading
of the Twenty-third Psalm, some of the
many passages Of scripture using the
illustration Of the sheep and the shep-
herd were considered. The lessons Of
Gods tender care for his creatures,
Christ's going before his followers, to
guide and bring those who are faithful
into pleasant pastures; the precious
ness of each soul in his sight-all were
brought out and impressed upon the
minds of those present.

that I ever saw her before. When
found that could not succeed, I left her
there and walked away"
Not ten minutes afterward he made
another statement in the presence Of the
jailer and several turnkeys, which was
taken down in writing, and this time he
admitted that he had perpetrated his
beastly crime. At first he claimed that
he could read, but not write, when re-
Quested to sign this document, but he
finally sat down and signed his name in
so good handwriting that it shows him
to be a liar.
The two Baileys claim to be from the
northern part Of the state, but declined
last night to say where they really be-
