NARRow-MINDED MINISTER'S.

A few days ago we quoted some figures
of Miss Helen Clark of the Evangel Board
Of New York, compiled after she had
made a study of religion in that city, in
which it appeared that 65 per cent of the
population of New York were outside the
pale of the church, or rather non-profes-
sors of religion Our comment was that it
seemed to be time for the ministers of the
gospel and other religious workers to
leave off quarrelng among themselves
over questions of "doxy'' and get togeth-
er on some broad platform for the uprais-
ing Of mankind. Two incidents which il
lustrate the point that there is too much
pickering, bad feeling and narrow mind
edness among the church leaders have
occurred recently, one in Massachusetts,
and the other in New York And in view
of such incidents, which are all too com
mon, it is not difficult to understand why
it is that peace-loving and liberal-minded
men hesitate to attend the churches pre-
sided over by the bigoted parties to the
controversies. The sincere seeker after
grace and salvation expects that his spir-
itual preceptor Will exemplify that
Christ-lixe love, compassion and sympa-
thy which lead to the upbuildng of re-
ligion and the saving of souls. He does
not care to hang his hope of eternity upon
the dicta of a cross-grained, quarrelsome
intolerant individual. even though he be
of the cloth.
In the Massachusetts, incident to which
we have referred, twenty-six clergymen

sets, learning that Bishop Lawrence had
permitted a Unitarian clergyman to offer
prayer at the laying of the cornerstone
of an Episcopal Church at Cohassett. took
it upon themselves to call the Bishop to
account for what it seems they regarded
as a sacriligious recognition of the Uni
tartan. They stated in their protest to the
| Bishop that the participation OF the Uni
tartan in the exercises of the cornerstone
| laying was IAN insult to God the Father
and His Eternal Son"
The Bishop who is a broad-minded and
big-hearted man, replied that the Unita-
rian was the old faith Of Cohassett. that

so late a day. He said he thought it a
| graceful thing for the pastor Of the Uni
| tartan church to take a part in the exer-
cises and thus welcome the Episcopalians
into the field and labors of the Unitarian
stronghold He drew attention to the fact
that the hymn Nearer My God to Thee"
found in Episcopal hymnals. was written
by Unitarian. His letter was high
toned but burning rebuke to his self-con-

had good effect
In the New York incident we find that

movement, to be participated in by
preachers of various denominations had
been started Early in the movement DR.
Broughton injected some strong anti
Unitarian views into his remarks, and
they were coincided in by some of the
other preachers. These views and re-
marks were offensive to DR.. Lindsay Par
ker, rector of St Peters Protestant Epis-
copal Church. and by way of protest, ne
withdrew from the movement. In speak
ing of Dr. Parkers withdrawal, the Rev.
Messrs. Dixon and Gregg are quoted as
saying the Unitarians are mot Chris
tians." and Mr.. Dixon went so much fur
Their as to say that the men who crucifed
Christ were Unitarians.
Now, it is just such talk as this that
disgusts thinking men with some preach
ers and keeps many persons from attend
ing church services. The time is past
when intelligent men can be made to be-
l.eve the sum of all goodness is concen-
trate1 in one religious denomination, and
that all safe passports to Heaven must
be countersigned sealed and stamped by
a certain sect. The aim of all religions is
to lift mankind to a better life, and upon
that broad ground there is room for the
cooperation of all denominations of the
Christian religion, surely. When men
take stand upon that ground. and
preach brotherly love and fellowship, they
are listened to; but cramped and hide
bound theology appeals to none save the
narrowest minds.

A Serious Prospect.

Little Bobby began attending church
regularly few weeks ago, but it was not
thought that the services had particular
ly impressed him. as the only effect on
him noticed by the family was that the
sermon merely acted as a soporifc, says
Life.
Last Sunday, however, Bobby must
have remained awake longer than usual.
The sermon was on the wonders of the
creation, particularly the miraculous orr
gin Of Eve. The next day an unusually
active game of tag resulted in Bobby's
running into the house, and, with an ex-
preston of combined anguish and terror,
calling to his mammal

stood. The returning board, Democratic
body, gave the election to Taylor. and he
now holds the gubernatorial Office. Goe-
bel began a contest in the Legislature, and
on account of the action in the House
yesterday in a contested election case it
is thought that the decision will be In
Goebers favor.
Unless both parties make an effort to
preserve the peace the chances are that
there will be violence of the most
serious character. 1t is not believed that
Taylor will give up the office if the Leg
lslature decides against him. And he has
the support of at least half of the voters
OF the state. AS good citizen, however,
ne ought TO respect the authority of the
Legislature, and depend upon the courts
to set him right.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Ledger Qnd0 saws:
War of the dimensions of the South
African conflict is new to this generation
of Britons. 1t will not be surprising if its
magnitude is not grasped for some time
by the British commanders. even by Rob
erts and Kitchener who do not appear to
be in immediate control of the operations
along the Tugela We must go back to
che Napoleonc era to find operations in
which great Britain bore part which
suggest the struggle now going on in
South Africa. But even a Waterloo the
British engaged were not as numerous as
the present British force in Natal. Ii is
said that, emitting Roberts and Kitche-
ner, every general now in command in
South Africa is leading more soldiers than
he ever did before. A war of this proper
ton and against such an enemy is a new
experience for modern Great Britain, and
costly mistakes and tactical blunders may
be made"
Speaking of the failure OF Industrial"
or trust stocks to command high prices In
the markets, the New Orleans Picayune
(Dem) says: IAN this is a healthy sign
as 1t proves THAI investors have learned 10
appreciate the industrials at their real
worth and to see the absurdty of the
claims made by the promoters Ii is gem
orally recognized now that the industrals
represent largely nothing more substan-
tial than water" an in the absence of
reliable statements as to the condition of
these organizations investors are disposed
to fight shy of them"
The Charleston News and Courier (Dem)
says: "Mr. Roberts of Utah has forfeited
his salary as congressman. of course but
Dato Jake, the gentemanly purveyor of
the harem of our great and good friend
and subject. the Emperor of Sulu, viii
continue TO draw his generous stipend
from the United States treasury without
a question. II is up to the Hon. Jake to
laugh"

ears of Chrstendom with the romance of
the Sheiks wars was a mighty sheik be-
cause ne really wasn't one. But, with the
inheritance of his slave-dealing stepfa-
Tiers wealth, he threw in his lot with the
Soudanese tribes and developed a military
genius which at times awed his antagon-
lists. In the mahdis wars he has pre-
served his liberty by running away when
the day was going against his faster
brothers of the desert. The rout of the
Khalifa has delivered this sturdy man of
war into the hands of the Philistines. ac-
cepting the definition that Philistnes are

the time he espoused the cause of Arab
Pasha he has defied the conquerors of the
Soudan. Now, with one arm gone, he is

ed it's religion with the pagan country it

Bishop Talbot (EpiscopaD Of Pennsyl-
vania, who used to be Bishop OF Wyoming,
said good word for saloonkeepers in the
Walnut Street Theater, Philadelphia, on
Sunday evening: Some of the best men
1 met in the West sold liquor" he de-
clared "Out In the mining towns they
were great friends of mine. They offered
me the use of their saloons for religious
services, brought in chairs for the wor-
shippers and hung curtain over the bar.
They often used to come to me and say:
Bishop, let's reform this town. Let's
see if we can't save some souls While
/ am sorry personally for a man who en-
cages in the liquor traffic, or who sells
whisky. especially American whisky.
which is so bad. do not think that such
a man should be Stunned. The good re-
spec liable citizen is apt to look on the
saloonkeeper as one to be avoided as a
being who has no morals no place in
Inc community. This is the old spirit
of the Pharisee cropping out. 1t is Thank
God that l am not like other men" The
liquor traffic undoubtedly does harm, but
some of the men engaged in 1t are worthy
of respect and many of them undoubtedly
lead blameless lives" u
