REV. MIR. BANE ON MISSIONS.
Delivers an Interesting Address lie
fore Park-PIace League.

fore Park-PIace League.
The lecture-room Of Park-Place Meth
odist Episcopal church was well filled last
night at the regular weekly devotional
prayer-meetng of the Epworth League.
Miss Mamie T. Pegram arranged for the
service and at her request Rev. {. y.
Bane, pastor of Union-Station Methodist
Episcopal church delivered the address
..fvnn before the Toronto Convention of
Epworth League In June, 1897.
After the opening service or song and
prayer, Mr.. Bane was introduced, ana
spoke with great earnestness and power
on Missions" The comparative state
ments of the results of Gospel work in
China and America were IN favor OF
China in proportion 10 the NUMBER OF
workers. The devotion OF the converted
Chlnaman is far more marked than that
of those in the home Church. In one or
the provinces of China in 1893 the natives
put TO death a number Of missionaries,
but "the blood of the martyrs is become
the seed of the Gospel. Within elsn-
teen months after the time 5000 were add
ded to the Church. MI Bane traced me
successes Of the Gospel in the different
foreign fields. This is a work Of God.
The power that insures success is Of God;
The world Is TO be won. not by armed
forces-it Is the power Of love that is to
win the world for Christ. ~, i be lift
ed. will draw all men unto Me-.
When we speak of lost souls. we do not
mean they are lost from God that God
has lost sight of them: but that the sin
ner has lost sight of God. and is In the
way that leads TO the wrong destination:
God has not lost sight Of China and
Japan: He sees them and yearns for them.
1t matters not how far sin carries men
from God, His love goes out and wins
them back Love Is the power that is go
ing to win the world for God.

date on the will.
The first recruits accepted in the ranks of
the Ethical Culture Society were Jews Pro-
fessor Adler's father had been the rabbi of
the most important of the metropolitan
Jewish congregations. and many of the old
rabbits friends hoped that the pulpit of the
Temple Emanuel might some day be filled
by the younger Adler. But term of years
in Europe and association with the advance
guard at Berlin and a Heidelberg had made
Adler a skeptic, had destroyed his Judaism,
and when he returned to New York he dis
him in the pulpit. His skepticsm also cost
him his professorship at Cornell, and when
the tn duties Of that office had no further
energy toward building up the society of
which he was the main prop.
The ultra-reformed Jews were his cham
pions. Many OF them had ceased to be
members of syna gogues, and it had become
fashionable in some Jewish circles to ridi-
Guile those who still kept the Jewish Sab
hath and all the various holidays, and who
allowed Jewish forms and ceremonies to be
practiced in their households. The society
grew, the audiences at the weekly lectures
from all churches soon joined the assem-
Dlages. They applauded the utterances of
the young orator, who spoke with equal
reverence of Moses and Jesus, who quoted
Shakespeare, the Bible or Schopenhauer;
who would take his text from Kant or
Josephus, or possibly from a daily paper
who dealt with mundane matters and held
up the mirror OF truth, not for the purpose
of destroying mans faith, but to the end
that mankind might be better.
The work of Professor Adler has borne
much good fruit in the form of practical
charities. The poor have been better nursed
in illness and they have had more whole
some pleasures in their leisure hours be-
cause of the institutions which owe their
being to Felix Adlar. Homes for neglected
children kindergartens, classes where
mothers may be taught their duties, and
technical schools where boys and girls may
be fitted to become useful and sef-support-
ing members of the community, are among
the works of the Society for Ethical Gull
ture
Whether these and other equally useful
institutions will flourish when Professor
Adler ceases to be the ruling power remains
to be seen. Whether those who have re-
nounced their faith and the faith of their
fathers in order to be practical humanitari-
ans will continue in the work and make new
converts to perpetuate what they have be-
gun are unanswerable questions, but while
the Ethical Culture Society exists and car
ries on it's practical work, even those who
disagree with him as to matters of faith
will praise the well-drected huma unitarian
work of Felix Adler.
