No one is qualified for bsptIsB who Is not already saved; 1t is his confession of faith, his acceptance of the gospel, his subscription to the creed of Jesus. It Is not thing of mag ic. 1t was stark superstition which tied the Church in early times to believe that salvation was impossible without it. aIn the ancient Church." says Prof Allen, land in the Middle Ages, it was held to be necessary to salvation; s necessity SO great that. if s running stream was not convenient for immersion, pouring might suffice." Of this superstition were born all substitutes for the baptism of Christ and the Apostles. If no one were saved
 without it, why should an infant be de-

 Why I Am A Baptist.
A SERMON BY REV FRANK DIXON OF HART
 FORD.- PRINTED BY REQUEST.
lrRoM THE HARTFORD TIMEs.I

There are, all told, In the United States to-day, 43, ,427 Regular Baptist churches, of which this South Baptist is one. Add together all the Christians of this country bearing the Episcopal, Presbyterian, Unitarian, Universalist and Congrega- tional names, and to the x and total you must still add l ,236, ,698 souls, before you have a number equal to the membership of these Regular Baptist churches. Four million, one hundred and eighty-one thousand, six hundred and eighty-six members, practically all of whom are adults, constitute the Baptist host of this country. One hundred and eighty-four thousand, eight hundred and forty-five of these were baptized last year. The growth of Baptist churches has always outrun the increase of population in America, and today one out of every twenty of the entire population belongs to Baptist church.
 Baptists have one hundred and eighty eight educational institutions, of which seven are theological scminaries, and about forty colleges. The charter of Rhode Island College, now Brown Uni- Versitv, when granted in 1764, was the most liberal In the world. Q takers, Con- gregationalists and Episcopalians were accepted as trustees. The president alone excepted, its offices were free and open to all denominations of Protestants. It was expressly stipulated that all mem- bers should enjoy "full, free, absolute, uninterrupted liberty of conscience" !" The property and endowments of Baptist educational institutions are today nearly forty millions in value.
 IN THE MISSION FIELD.
 The first missionary of modern times William Carey, was Baptist. The first American missionaries, Judson and Rice tried to go to the foreign field without accepting Baptist views, but, before they could cross the ocean, concluded that life was too short and it's opportunities too precious to be lost by them In explaining to & heather world why they did not obey the plainest command of the Bible, whose truths they were to expound. They landed and were baptized. "The frs modern evangelical missionary society for sending the gospel to the heather wal organized by Baptists in 1793. Int

earliest trarslations of the Scriptures into heather languages were by Baptists' The first Bible society was founded and suataiued for years by William Hughes, 8 Baptist. The first evangelical Christian churches in India, BurmRh and China were Baptist churches. mention these facts merely to indicate the spirit and value of that body of Christians amorg whom have the honor to count myself, and for whom, as far as an individual may assume to do so, desire to speak. It is my duty, however, to remind you that no Baptist under the blue sky can speak authoritatively for any one but himself. That is one of the chief reasons why Baptist is what he is.
 Broadly speaking, the Christian world is divided into two sections, those who practice Infant Baptism, who are called Pedobaptists Ca word derived from two Greek words, pals, 8 child, and bap- tistes, baptist), and those who baptize only those who are old enough to exer- else an intelligent faith and understand the significance of the act, who are called Baptists. The peculiarities which dis tipguish the various Pedobaptist churches from each other are insignifl. cant as compared with those differences which separate this group of churches from Baptists. Infant Baptism opened the gulf between Baptists and those who now constitute the ajority of the Chris tian world. If wisdom and truth are found only in ms orities, Baptists have no defense to offer for their convictions. But, by the same argument, the Christian world could not justify it's separation in religion from the vast majority of man. kind who are non-Christians. No; ma iorities settle nothing; reason, conscience and faith must be judges of the truth.
 NOT A BAPTIST BY BIRTH.
 Before I proceed further, I ought to say that am not Baptist because was born one. No man Is Baptist by birth he becomes one only by second birth. It does not follow by any means that be- cause my parents are Baptists was born ! DapbIojs AhaS Wh:Sb ID SSAA O4 GAN fl esh is fl esh." Only by the 'th of the Spirit does a man become 8 Baptist Jesus said to the Jews who claimed that they were children of God merely be cause Abraham was their father, "Ye are Of your father, the devil." Pious percentage makes no one Christian, flor Christianity Is possible only through the exercise of a personal faith. Even though reared in a Baptist home, no young man would be likely to enter the Baptist ministry and stay there, save from conviction. Doep he seek field in which to satisfy ambi. tionF The highest pinnacle of fame and power attainable in Baptist church. is the pulpit of local body of religious democrats, from which he yields an ir fl q.

DRAINAGE CANAL
Of Chicago ST, Louis is ObjeCtlng 10 IL
An Interesting Case.

A rather extraordinary case is now
being heard in the Supreme court of
the United States. 1t is the application
of the city of st. Louis for an injunc
tion against the drainage trustees of
Chicago restraining the defendants
from using the Chicago drainage canal,
which has been constructed for the
purpose Of reversing the current of the
Chicago river by allowing the water
from Lake Michigan to flow through it
into the Illinois river, thus carrying
away the drainage of Chicago and pre-
venting the pollution of the lake,
from which the city draws its water
supply. 1t is an extraordinary case,
because it aims to make useless a pub
lie improvement which has been con-
structed at an expense of some 33,000,-
900, and which ranks as one of the
greatest engineering feats of the CEN
tury. 1t is also extraordinary be-
cause the suit has been delayed until
the great expenditure necessary for the
construction of the work has been in
Cured and until the canal has been
placed in operation
1t hardly seems possible that st.
Louis at this day hopes to compel Chi
cago TO lose the benefit of it's great ex-
penditure for sanitary betterment, and
that it expects a decision that will
close what promises TO become great
navigable highway as well as a drain
age ditch. Yet, if st. Louis is able to
show that her water supply is polluted
by the drainage of her sitter city, and
that the health of her people is in.
jured and the value of their property
depressed, it would appear that they
were entitled to a remedy, if they had
gone about seeking it in the proper
way and the proper time.o Cities are
bound to regard the rights of their
neighbors as we'll as individuals.
Doubtless the opinions in the case,
however it may be decided, will en-
body an elaborate review of the ques-
tion of the pollution of water courses,
which is daily becoming most i'm
portant one.

STOCKS WERE STRONG
And There was Good Trading on the New
York Exchange.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
New York, Nov 15.-Strength was
renewed in the stock market today but
nothing like the resumption of the
speculative enthusiasm of last week.
More stocks moved strongly upward
than yesterday and there were fewer
that closed the day lower than they
left off last night; nevertheless the
continuance was irregular, with a
tendency that pointed to strength,
though more numerous and still some
what isolated or dissociated. The
market did not at any time show per-
meating and vigorous strength. Gains
were neither due to operations of spec
ulative pools, working for an advance
in special stocks or the causes affect
ing individual stocks. There was d
general movement of the broadest
scope in winter wheat and the grang-
ers advanced between on and two
points all around on good weather for
a crop in that territory The bond
market was of the same character as
the stock market, showing strength,
but not at the. high level Of last nights
activity. Money loaned at 4A@5 per
cent. There were S65, 900 shares trad
ed in.

The annual engagement of that in
imitable child star, Little Irene Myers,
!egins at the Auditorium Monday eve
ming, and considering that Little Irene
is one of Marictta's favored stars, she
will doubtless receive an enthusiastic
welcome at her opening performance.
The addition of several new plays to
her repertoire, in each Of which she
will be seen in a conspicuous role, the
addition of an abundance of magnifi-
cent scenery, and the requirement of
number of new and novel special lies,
should make the attraction second to
none at popular prices. "The Ensign"
will be given Monday night, Little
Irene appearing as Dot.

One of the seasons events inthe line

of scenery and mechanical accessories.
One of the many attractive features of
the plays to be presented this sason is
the abundance of conspicuously strong
parts afforded Little Irene. They offer
opportunity for displaying her versa
tality in a manner that will surely be
appreciated by her many friends and
admirers, who have for the past three
seasons diligently insitted upon see
