EXPLAINED THE APOCALYPSE
SECOND OF A SERIES OF Lee.
TUREs BY REV. DIR. SCHOFIELD

SECOND OF A SERIES OF Lee
TUREs BY REV. DIR. SCHOFIELD.
To a deeply interested audience the
second lecture in the series on the
Apocalypse was delivered by DR.. Scho-
field last night in Delaware Avenue
Baptist Church. The address was
characterized by the same charm and
wonderful impressiyeness and power
that was manifest in that OF Tuesday
might
The subject was "The Letters to the
Seven Churches Of Asia" The speaker
first gave seven reasons for regarding
these letters as having a prophetic, as
well as a local historic phase. He
dwelt upon the striking features in the
two letters to the two churches.
Ephesus and Smyrna. In so doing he
pointed out that devotion to the
cause" was a point to which Ephesus
had fallen from her first love of the
person, Christ, n state of things which
is characteristic Of present churches in
general.
AS to Christ's encouraging, but find
ing no fault with the church in Smyrna,
he touchingly said: 1T is just like Him
If He has anything against His people
ne uVth hul DIluB IL up Whtn lney are
In trouble" The Smyrna church was
the symbol of the church during the
"Ten Systematic Prosecutions"
The symbolism of the tree OF life
I'm the midst OF the paradise of God for
the overcomers" was explained as the
sign of life sustenance-4the fullness OF
divine love which Christ will give those
who return TO the first love of Himself
The subject will be taken up thi:
evening whore the speaker left off.

With such an organization as the
Order Of Elks promoting the street fair
enterprise, the pleasure-loving public
is assured that the show will be OF
high character, and that nothing Of
fensive will be tolerated. For the mayor
and City Council to refuse to give the
order the use of the Boulevard asked
for would be a disappointment to the
people at large. Such grants have been
made in other cities without working
any harmful results, and without estab-
fishing a dangerous precedent, and We
are sure that if property rights abut-
ting on the thoroughtare are protected
the city officials will subject them
selves to no unfavorable criticism by
granting the petition placed befor,
them.

Far from being a disappointment to
the Republicans OF Delaware, the Ad-
dicks State Convention. which nomi-
mated so-called delegates to the Ma
tional Convention, was a qualification.
The small attendance; the cut-and-
dried character OF all the business
transacted; the lack Of fire and enthu-
siasm; the atmosphere Of gloom and
detection; the truculent, but unquali-
fed, endorsement OF the Mckinley ad-
ministration, and the one-man feature
Of the days work made public demon
stration OF the fact that the gas man
is losing his hold upon those whom he
has deluded into following him in his
hopeless task of becoming the recog-
nized leader Of the Republican party
in this state.
The convention must have been a
disappointment to Mr. Addicks and
his lieutenants. The feeling of cold
ness and discomfort must have weigh
ed upon them. They did not endorse
President Mckinley because they want
ed to. They much rather would have
endorsed Bryan. But they had to do
It, because they would have been aban-
doned by their followers at once had
they done otherwise. In addition to
this compulslon within the organiza-
ton there was the added selfish mo-
tive TO make use of such endorsement
with President McKinley's friends in
Philadelphia when the National Con
vention assemblies there on June 49,
These things are understood, and it is
useless for Mr.. Addicks and his bosom
friends and immediate hangers-on tc
attempt to practice such deception.

When strikers resort to -blooded
murder they lose the sympathy of the
public, and with it their cause, however
just it may be. The sentiment Of the
people is often with workingmen who,
having real grievances. and having ex-
hausted all othermeans Of getting them
redressed, lay down their implements
and quit work. Usually they even are
sustained in the public mind in estab-
fishing picket lines and influencing
other workingmen from breaking the
effectiveness of the strike: but when
they resort to violence and bloodshed
and to the destruction of property
they do themselves an injury which is
infinitely greater than that which they
inflict upon their opponents. for they
deprive themselves of the benefits OF
that great sustaining power-publiC
sentiment. The strikers at Cornell
Dam, New York, have worked this
injury upon themselves by ambushinl
and killing a sergeant of the National
Guard, detailed to protect life and prop
erty. That act ends the effectiveness
of the strike, and, while still existing
in form. il is. to all intents and pur
poses, a thing Of the past.
