OPTIMISM AND FAITH.
Natural Partners, Discussed by Rev

Natural Partners, Discussed by Rev.
Charles Hawley Feun.
During the absence of Rev. S. G. Smith,
pastor of the Peoples church, who is
spending a season in California for his
health, the Peoples church pulpit is
being filled by Rev. Charles Hawley
Fem, pastor of the First Congregational
church, of Leavenworth, Kan. Mr.. Fem,
when the Peoples church was In its in
fancy was a lay assistant to DR.. Smith,
and while he very soon departed for
wider fields, he is remembered by many
of the older members of the church Mr..
Fem is a polished speaker and has made
great success in the pulpit.
At yesterday mornings service he spoke
on ''The State and the Kingdom and at
the evening service spoke on Optimism.
Faith was, the speaker said, the first es-
sentia1 for an optimist. The word i'm
piled a great deal. 1t was that which
made men appreciate all that was beau.
tiful In life, the opposite to the cynical.
The optimist was the man who looked
all around him, believed In what he could
not see The force which made men
great was sagacity and intelligence Both
were unknown quantities, yet the op,
tinist was believer, and this quality in
his nature led him to aspire to and ac-
complish great deeds Napoleon was
great when he began his conquests,
least as emperor, and his downfall com.
menced when he trampled on the things
of the heart He died an unhappy in
fdel. The speaker admonished his hear
ers not to allow their optimism to lead
them upwards to some cliff over which
they might fall, but rather to strive for
character, which was to be priced
above the treasures of the world. OPP
timism was powerful everywhere 1t was
this quality that led Abraham to become
the servant of an invisible God. 1t was
not for dollars that brothers took up
arms against each other, but for the
principles of freedom, not for themselves,
but for their black brethren. Yet people
claimed that there was nothing in the in
| visible. The optimist was the believer
1t was the attribute that led men to
! struggle against great odds for an educa-
ton and TO hold aloft character as the
most priced thing in the world.

English shipbunding.


Shipbuildng is the most active and
fiourishing industry in all England; wnlch
fioated more than half the worlds ton,
mage launched for the year 1899, a total
of 2, Az, 53S tons of new shipping. Of which
Great Britain contributed 1,76S.9H tons
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. The Unit
ed States added 2S3.964 tons, and Germany
followed with 179, 2S5 tons The great lakes
built seventy vessels of 72,G95 tons, and
1888 tons were built on the seaboard, so
far the largest output for twelve months
of steel ships in the history of the indus
try. The year 1899 in two features breaks
the shipbuilding record-the greatest
amount of tonnage was built, and the
largest vessel ever constructed, the
Oceanic. was launched. More than 600
ships were either built or in process of
construction In the shipyards of England
during 1899 With an industry of such
vast development it is but natural that
the ship carpenter would be numerous
and much In evidence in Great Britain
Returns show lis, branches of shipWrights
and an accumulated fund of 100000 This
favorable showing has been brought
about in a few years. Although the craft
has been organized almost q century. it
was in a scattered and haphaZard way.
Now the various. branches work under
one head, and better results : are the
consequence. Iron shIpbuilding is now ac-
tive on our lakes, and several monster
carriers of 10000 tons will be ready for
the launching shortly after the opening OF
navigation, with more to follow. Interest
in the ship subsidy measure now before
the senate committee is active. and 1t is
believed a bill will be reported shortly
which will give the industry a substantial
revival.

looking the lower bay and just opposite
the end of Staten island.
The first hole, known as "the Hook"
is 412 yards long. The fair green is I'M

Harry Vardon, open champion of Great

the age, who arrived at New York
week ago, is man Of about thirty years
of age, feet 10 or II inches in height,
and weighs 155 pounds. He is of very

Vardon, when asked his mode of train.
ing, laughed heartily, for though virtually
champion of the world, he is a man who
does not believe in training further than
to eat, drink, smoke and stay up late at
nights the same as any other man.
He has often remained up half the
night, smoking, drinking and chatting
with friends during his most important
matches, during a championship when
thdrty-six holes had to be played each
day.
In speaking Of the game, Vardon said
he had violated all the Instructions given
in the books regarding the proper way to
play golf, and Taylor has done likewise,
as both play alike. Still we have won
the championship five times between US
in the past six years. he added Taylor
won it in 1894 and 1895, and 1 won 1t in
1896, 1898 and 1899, while in 1897 it was won
by an amateur.
I'VE were the first to introduce the

advantage of this grip is to make the

Ing for straight ball. The name Of this
hole is "Over There"
The fourth hole, "Westward, Ho," 30
yards, is exceedingly sporty. There is a
wide, sunken road and deep ravine, which
must be carried on the drive in order to
avoid trouble The fifth hole is called
Hay Stocks" and is the shortest hole
on the course, being 1sonly 220 yards.
There are bog and bunker ninety
yards from the tee, which must be car
ried on the tee shot The sixth hole, the
'.Well," Is 245 yards long, and up hill,
with road and hedges to cross, and
the green is guarded by, a ditch. The
seventh hole is called Rotten Row" 1t
is 305 yards long down hill, with ditch
guarding the green.
The eighth hole, 1.-THE Paddock" Is 310
yards, being an up grade all the way. A
pulled ball is caught by "a row Of apple
trees. There is a. difficult bunker to
catch badly played second stroke, but
the approach to the green is fair and free.
The ninth, called Home lis 512 yards,
and the going is excellent, provided the
ball is kept to the course. A sliced ball
will go into the paddock, while pulled
ball will go off into a wheat field.
The amateur record of the course, Al, is
held by Joseph J. O'Donohue Jr., while
the professional record, 4s, was made
last summer by Willie Dunn, who visited
the course with the purpose OF compar-
ing his play with that of Champion VAR
don.

RITES AT CALVARY.

Daily From 10 to Noon.
In circular letter to ST. Paul pastors,
Archbishop Ireland says:
You will please make known to the
people of your congregation that hence
forth a priest will be in attendance in
Calvary cemetery every day, except Sun
days, from 10 a. m. to IL M, to meet
funerals and recite at the burial the
prayers prescribed by the ritual of Holy
Church.
I'VE earnestly hope that due efforts
will be made to have all burials in the
cemetery take place within the hours in
Dictated. 1t is not possible, as will be
easily seen, to have a priest in at
tendance in the cemetery at any and all
moments Of the day.
1.-THE duty of attendance in the ceme-
terry is, for the present time, assumed by
the pastor of ST. Vincent's church.
"Of course, the prayers to be recited In
the cemetery will, in no manner, dis
pense the relatives of the deceased from
the duty of bringing the body to the
parish church before it osborne to the
cemetery. The ritual contains prayers
to be recited In the church as well as
prayers to be recited in the cemetery;
and, moreover, in the case of the burial
of adult Catholics piety will not permit
the omission of the funeral mass"

Progress Made by Mexicans In Cam

AUSTIN, Tex, Feb. ia dispatch
from Oajaca, Mexico, says that Gen.
Bravo is making good progress in his
campaign against the Maya Indians In
Yucatan. Several engagements between
the government troops and the Indians
have taken place during the last two
weeks, and the Maya losses are reported
to have been heavy.
The mosquito fleet of gunboats which
was sent up the Balize and Hondo rivers
has been of little use, owing to the fact
that the Indians have kept some distance
from shore Several small villages along
these rivers have been destroyed by the
gunboat crews and marines.
It is charged by Mexican army officers
engaged In this campaign that the Mayas
are constantly receiving valuable aid
from the residents of British Honduras.
