Christianity.

The structure recently completed to

DID,, pastor of the Plymouth Congrega-
tional Church
Rev. ]. r. Krodell spoke of the pros
porous condition of many of the churches
in this city, and argued that this was an
evidence of the interest which people take
in religious matters. The board of direc-
tors and the treasurer, F. A. Hatch, then
expressed themselves through the me-
dunn of the latter, showing. that the
church is undergoing a rapid and SUBJ
stantial growth.
Rev. George c. Adams, DID,, made the
announcements for the week, and the
congregation sang hymn. This was fol-
lowed by special service in which the
deacons participated, and then the new
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Wheat offered the
divine aid in all successful human eff
forts and asked that assistance might
always be granted us in all our undertake
ings He concluded his prayer with an
eloquent appeal for Gods mercy and
guidance, and the congregation united in

One Was an Overflow
in Union Square.
PLENTY OF ROOM IN HEAVEN
HOW TO PRAY THE SUBJECT OF
HIS ADDRESS.
''The Celestial Gates Are Open for All
Who Take the Right Road"
Says the Eloquent
Preacher.

The announcement in the Sunday morn
ing papers that Rev. T. De Witt Talmage
would preach in the evening at Calvary
Presbyterian Church, corner Of Powell
and Geary streets, attracted an immense
crowd to that place of worship fully an
hour before the doors were opened.
At 7 o'clock there were over three thou
sand people gathered in the street, all of
whom were axious to hear the eminent
divine, but considerably less than one
half were admitted. When the church was
filled to its utmost capacity the doors
were locked and the overflow remained
outside. In a few minutes, however, 1t
was announced to them that Mr.. Talmage
would address them from the band stand
in Union square after the conclusion, of
the church services.
Mr.. Talmage took as a text for his dis
course in the church the thirteenth verse
Of the twenty-fifth chapter of the First
Book of Samuel, as follows: "And David
said unto his men, Grid We on every man
his sword; and David also girded on his
sword: and there went up after David
four hundred men; and two hundred men
abode by the stuff
The lesson drawn from this text was
that those who remained in camp or at
home and did their duty are entitled to
as much credit as those who do their duty
at the front; that the man in humble sta
ton performing his duty faithfully is as
sure Oh HIS reward as the IdltnIul man IN
the highest and most important walks of
life. In this connection the eloquent
preacher paid glowing and touching
tribute to Christian motherhood, and cited
many examples of the great good accom-
plished by good mothers, whose conscfen-
Iious deeds have had vast influence upon
the world.
AT a few minutes after o'clock Mr..
Talmage appeared upon the band stand in
Union square, where he found a very
large congregation which had been pa
tiently waiting for him and meantime
singing some of the good old hymns.
such as Hold the Fort" Sunshine y
sweet Bye and Bye Rock of Ages -,
and Pull for the Shore"
Mr.. Talmage spoke for about twenty
minutes. He was sorry that so many
had been unable to getinto the church, but
he consoled them with the declaration
that there is plenty of room in heaven,
the gates of which will be open for all
who take the right road to get there
THE next time we meet" said he, may
be at the Judgment seat. How are you
prospecting? What are your prospects
for the life to Gomez" he asked. and then
he urged all to make up their minds at
once to come to God. He asked for the
blessing of God Epon them and their
households, and hoped that hundreds of
the young men and women whom he saw

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS
The University of Michigan Ia Presented
With Unique Coilection-Types from
Prehistoric Times TO the Present

Ann Arbor, Mich. Nov. a9.-Mr.
Frederick Stearns, Detroit million
aire. has presented to the university
of Michigan his unique collection Of
musical instruments, numb boring near
" 1000 pieces. Mr.. Stearns has been
collecting for 10 years and has spent
upon his treasures something over
S25. 600. The present value of the collec-
ton. however, is many times that SUN.
The Importance of the collection for
the university lies in the fact that it
exhibits, with hardly a break, the evo-
luton of the three great types of mu-
steal instruments from prehistoric
times down to the present In this re-
spect it can rival the most famous col
lect;ons of this country and of Europe.

Admiral Dewey is getting quite a

Dewey a chance to do in the nation as
