FAVoRITE HYMNS
Mrs. ii. c. Williams Speaks to Young
People About Sacred Songs.

Mrs, H. g. Williams conducted the Young
Peoples service at the Church of our
Father yesterday afternoon. Her subject
was Favorite hymns and why we like
them" She said that ones fancy for Il
hymn depended much on a PERSONS mood,
At times one hymn might be IA favorita.
and then again. another. man or wo-
man might be joyous at one time and at
another shadow might have fallen. She
gave 4 brief sketch of hymns, tracing thu
antiquity of sacred songs. In the Book
of job. the oldest of the books OF the
Bible, it is recited that at the creation the
stars sang together The followers of
Moses sang songs of praise and there was
sacred music in the days OF Samuel Mrs.
Williams referred TO the Sweet Singer OF
Israel, who composed The Lord is Ny
Shepherd" and she told of the songs the
angels are said to have sung on the plains
Of Bethlehem. The Church music OF to-
day is less doleful than that sung by. our
ancestors. AS one of the hymns which at
times appealed strongly to her. Mrs Will
liams cited Ira ID. Sankey's song, Hid
ing in Thee" Another hymn cited as a
popular favorite is that beginning When
the Lord from Heaven appears
Among the other general favorites refer

THE FATE OF UNBELIEvERs.
IngersoITs Death Referred to by the
Rcx Mr. MIIlinmr.

The services at Trinity Episcopal Church
at the corner of Third and Streets north
west, were conducted by the Rev. Rich
ard p Williams, the rector. In his dis
course the minister pointed cut to his par
ishioners the danger in which all persons
stand who have the opportunity to become
affiliated with a church and VINO. do not
avail themselves of it. He also initimated
that Robert G. Ingersoll, because he was
not a church member and because of his
denunciation of the Christian Church, has
not been saved.
Mr.. Williams took his text from James
iv: II, in which the apostle teaches that
a man who knows the right and does not
practice it, sins. The minister stated that
any man or woman can, from the study
of the teachings of James, foretell what
his or her reward or punishment will be
I'VE will be judged by the way in which
we accept spiritual opportunities offered
u.s. Those who have means of finding out
the truth and who practice it will be saved;
but according to the teachings OF James
those who do know what Christ command
ed and do not perform the tasks laid down
by him will not be accorded the joys Of
eternal life This is a happy gO-lucky age
in religious thought, and men do not know
just what they believe. Some say, We live
rightly. what difference does IL make what
tnlnk OF TtilSlOu. HIS - an q MS
take. Christ commanded that we believe
in him and it is all important that we no.
only live uprightly, but that We believe
in the teachings of the Bible and in the
efficacy of the Church The best organ
lied church today is the Roman Church.
and the secret OF it is that the Roman
Catholics have a creed which they all be-
lieye. The Protestant does not believe as
firmly in the precepts of his religious or
ganization. and hence is not as strong.
Protestants ought to know more of their
Church history but it is an utter impos-
sibility to induce them to read it.
Every man outside of the Church signs
his death sentence every day he neglects
to become a member Mr.. Ingersoll was
an honest moral man. good father and
husband, and enieavored to better the con-
dtions of his fellow-men. and according
10 the modern sentimentalism ought to go
tc heaven"
The minister intimated that the beliefs
of the great agnostic and the fact that he
had not accepted the opportunity of join
ing the Church counted against him and
that he is condemned 10 the punishment
which awaits all who do not accept Chris
tianity.
In conclusion, Mr.. Williams said that
those who are unnumbered OF the Church
are standing on the edge of a precipice and
are in great danger of losing eternal life.

Meantime the squads detailed for outpost
duty were having a very interesting time.
One in particular was enjoying itself b.
crawling on all fours through a stubbly
paddy field. A rascally young volunteer

his joke when he had the proper man, con-
Quoted the party warning them not to
lift a head or a volley of Filipino bullets
would get EN- sure. There was rot a
belligerent Filipino within two miles of the
spot After painful trip of a quarter of
a mile on their bellies the Ninth Regiment
party came to the volunteer outpost and
proceeded to relieve it. The dark spots
were pointed out where Filipinos we're
supposed to be lurking, and they were left
to their duties with the injunction to
keep low down. The Colorados departed
on their all-night march TO the Mariquina
River, feeling satisfied that they had made
good provision for defending the quiet
spot they left behind.
There is no doubt that the volunteers are
giving the new regulars, who need it, some
good instruction. for the volunteers them
selves are beginning to suffer on account
of some of the rules they have solemnly
laid down. The members of the First Colo
rado when they pass along the Santa Mesa
1Odu, WHICH ISduS 10 lue NdltI"OIhS, at
night are halted by members of the Twen-
ty-first United States Infantry, the last to
arrive. The word halt is not spoken
in a quiet, persuasive tone, but is fairly
yelled out on the still night air 1t has
the effect of bringing the poor volunteer
back on his launches and causing him to
ask the man with the nice new Krag-
Jorgensen not to shoot him.
Hands up!" ordered Twenty-frst man
the other night.
Friend" shouted the Colorado man, in
tent on reaching town on an errand.
Friend or no friend, hands up" ordered
the regular.
The Colorado man put his hands up and
advanced with few non-poetical senti-
ments coming from between his teeth.
The man of the Twenty first lowered his
loaded gun and allowed the volunteer to
lower his hands and pass on. remarking to
him: zone O. you waterworks gang told
me that it was always safe to order hands
up, and you bet l amt takin' no chances on
havin' a Filipino run into ME with a
macheet.''
The Rocky Mountain genius suggested
before departing that the best plan was to
make everybody advance backward. They
say the rocky got into trouble by follow
ing out this order because he tried 1t on
an officer.

SOCIAL AND PERSONAL.

In referring to the anticipated visit of
President and Mrs. Mckinley to Heart
Island, the summer home Of Mr.. George
C. Boldt in the Thousand Islands. opposite
Alexandria Bay, a chronicler writes:
"a submarine cable has been laid from
the mainland to the island for the purpose
of giving Mr.. Mckinley immediate and
constant intercourse with Washington.
The visit of the President will be of an ex-
ceedingly quiet character.
The island will furnish seclusion and
rest, and it will be impossible for inquisi-
tive crowds to approach the President ex-
cept by express permission to land on the
island, which, it is understood, will in no
case be granted. It is believed the bracing
st. Lawrence air will have a beneficial
effect upon Mrs. Mckinley, and will result
in distinct Improvement in her physical
condition. 1t is in consequence OF the ill
ness of Mrs. Mckinley that President Nc
Kinley's intended visit TO the Pacific Coast
has been abandoned. They will remain in
Washington, of and on, all summer. and
the "trip to the St. Lawrence, according to
present plans, will constitute the vacation
they contemplated spending outside the
city"
Mr.. and Mrs. Mckinley will leave the
city Wednesday for Hotel Champlain on
the Lake.

Monday the Rocky Ford Ice and
Storage Co. held conference with s. A.
Brewster, travelling agent Of the Santa
Fe Fruit and Refrigerator line. The
meeting was held to discuss the dispo-
sition Of the ice now on hand in the
company's house at Rocky Ford. This
house was built something over year
ago not only by the consent but at the
solicitation OF Santa Fe officials. Ice
was furnished for the Melon associa-
tion's cars laat season. This tho road
cannot allow during the coming season,
having made contract for ice which
conflicts with such purchase by the mel
ongrowers. The situation was talked
over but no conclusion reached, Mr..
Brewster being empowered only to inves-
tIgato and report. Several propositions
were canvassed. The road offered sl.75
per ton placed in the refrigerator cars.
This the company declined. They did
however agree to take that price in the
house and also offered to sell the house
for $4,000. A large number Of our farm.
ers are interested in the Ice company and
the Santa Fe management will make a
mistake il they 10 not do fairly by them
in the matter. An unjust settlement OF
the business which the road has the
power to enforce, will create an antago-
