University President Writes Of
New Pastor.
Suitable Successor to the Retiring
Central Union Leader Has Been
Always a Hard Worker.

One Of the very warnest recommen-
dations for the new pastor of Central
Union, Rev. VIM NJ. Kincaid, comes
to Prof. F. A. Hosmer, president of
Oahu College, from President George
E. MacLean. Chancellor of the Uni
versity of Nebraska A letter on the
subject was written at Lincoln, Neb
on the 29th, ult. Prof. MacLean opens
with mentioning that two of the young
men who were in a military company
organized in Massachusetts by Prof.
Hosmer, have been appointed to lieu
tenancies in the United States forces.
The following is in part what is said
of the man who is to succeed the Rev.
D. P. Brine, resigned:
4 also learned that your church
was in need of a pastor, 1 believe
know Just the right man for you, the
Rev VIM NJ Kincaid of Andrew
Presbyterian church of Minneapolis,
Mimi. He was a classmate of mine
at Williams College, where he was dis
tinguished for his thoughtful scholar
ship. [ attended his church for eight
years at Minneapolis. He came to us
from the First Baptist church at San
Francisco, where he had been very
successful for nine or ten years. A
high sense of honor caused him to
leave the Baptist church and by doing
this he broke away from a congrega-
ton that gladly would have kept him.
He was born in the Dutch Reformed
church and made the Presbyterian
church the choice of his manhood.
He is both a pastor and a preacher.
He speaks without notes. His ser
mons are strong, thoughtful and
spiritual I have not been able to
find preaching which averages so well
as his and l miss him greatly. After
[ came to Lincoln he was called, three.
years ago, to the First Presbyterian
church of this city, but declined on
account of the objections made by his
parish. His present church has
doubled its membership and more dur
ing his pastorate It has erected and
paid for a fine stone building. He has
become the preacher for the students
in the University of Minnesota. He is
not only successful in bringing them
to hear him preach, but in organizing
them and young people generally for
religious study and work. His peo-
pie are devoted to him and would be
distressed by his removal. Neverthe-
less I think he should move on account
of the illness of his son, a boy of 49,
l have assumed you do not desire a
green young man, but mature man
of experience and of full vigOr. Mr.
Kincaid is artistic, cultured poetical,
but at the same time not a creature
too bright or good for human natures
daily food He is progressive in
thought and methods of work, but
sound in the essentials of the faith.
He has travelled in Europe and is
widely read man. His wife is a lovely
lady and tactful helper"
The Rev. Mr.. VIM. Kincaid will be
here in a couple of months now. He
was strongly endorsed by number
of very prominent men in the United
States.

days ago, in which he said: please send
some tobacco and pipes down TO the men.

Louisiana judges are forbidden by the
new Constitution of that State TO make
public dissenting opinions.
The New York Commercial Advertiser
says that the practice of writing dissent
ing opinions grew up when courts were
not as busy as now. 1T is q relic of days
when judges had plenty of time for DELHI
GRAFTON and literary diversion, and writing
dissenting opinions imposed no extra la
Dor. Now every court OF last resort IN the
country has a burdened docket, and the
Federal Supreme Court and New York
Court of Appeals. for example. are far
behind in their work. If" adds the
Commercial. 1.-THE judges of courts like
these would write no dissenting opinions.
or only brief ones, they might dispose OF
litigation somewhat more rapidly and
with less exhausting labor"
True. but on the other hand, ii may
be possible that when judges are under no
sort of obligations TO explain why they
dissent from the conclusions of the ma
jority. they will dissent oftener than they
do now.
