West Presbyterian Church.

DR.. Keigwln preached an inter.
esting sermon on Sunday morning
from the 9th verse of the 30th chap
ter of Solomon: "And the king an
swered and said Give her the Iv-
ing child, and slay it not, as she is
the mother thereof. " In his pre-
fatory remarks he referred to the
inability OF the court to decide the
question of the parentage Of the
child and hence the appeal to the
King. who proposed to divide the
child and thus show which woman
had really a mothers love for It.
He paid beautiful compliment
to the affection Of mothers generally
for their children, and alluded to
the hopeless condition of the man
who has forgotten his mothers love
and care, and ceased to do her
reverence. He was glad that the
day had passed away when old
worn out men were employed to
teach our children, who had moth
ing to recommend them but a big
head. Female teachers were gre at
ly preferable to males as teachers,
as they had more love for their pu-
pills and thus inculcated principles
that were more important to make
good citizens than mere book know
ledge or great erudition. If the
boys are trained right, the State
will be safe. He noticed the feeling
which led the boys in France to
display on banners in their process
sion, 1--WE will be men and make
your laws" and these boys, few
years afterward, made the French
revolution. He next alluded to the
Importance of education. The ex-
cuse of some parents was that 1t
was necessary tor their children to
labor in order that they might live
properly. He thought it we're bet
ter that the State should pay par
ents the wages their children earn
ed than that the children should
fail to be properly educated. No
school house could be TOO costly, he
said, or the tax for education too
oppressive. He was ashamed that
the school building on Delaware
avenue should be left standing in
its present condition. He prayed
that God would give US wise Legis-
lators, men with liberal hands and
hearts. He had never felt much in
terest in the question Of keeping
the Bible in the public schools. as
he believed it was more essential to
keep christian young women as
teachers. AS important as the
public schools were to the perpetu-
alton of the liberty Of our country,
he believed the encouragement OF
the Sunday schools was still more
important. The children should
be properly instructed. so that they
should feel that their first duty was
to God, and their second to their
country. In this way we should
have law abiding citizens and our
free Institutions endure through
all time to come. The sermon was
a very timely one, and we regret
our inability to give 1t a more ex.
tended notice,

and shew thy self man
This, he said, was the charge
of father to son. David, the
great Hebrew king. felt that his
days were drawing to a close. He
therefore gave last in JUNCTION to
his son.
"Since Solomon was to wear the
crown and direct the destinies of
the most influential nation in the
world his father very properly en-
joined upon him TO show himself 4
king and be an ideal monarch like
the one whose picture Moses had
sketched. David had been a great
general but in his diving injunction
TO his son, did not directly or indi-
rectly say that he wanted him to
be a great field marshal.
DR.. Hall stated that Solomon in
his in junction to his son had in
mind particularly MOI al aud physi-
cal strength. Solomon saw that
what his son needed was faith in
God and obedience to his will, and
if he would walk in His way he
would prosper in ali that he under
took.
parents nowadays do not see
this question as David did. They
have in mind only the culture of
their children, both bodily and men,
tally. They see that their sons
enter the best schools, but overlook
the great element needed in life's
warfare. They put the study Of
Shakespeare on one hand as the
great work of modern literature,
but on the other hand neglect the
Bible, which they should make as
lamp unto their feet.
The bene1iction was pronounced
by Bishop Coleman. DR.. Hall wore
for the first time a beautiful sur
plce. the gift Of one OF his parish
toner's.

FoR A ousAN NAVY.


4 PlaA For sixty sAibs-Cuban Jus.
fies 1 katt - Of Dollars a.A Cents.
HAVANA, June 11.-General Lacre,
has brought before Governor Genera!
Wood the plan which originated last year
for forming a Cuban navy, to be com
posed at the outset of 90 vessels, havinG
in view for the present. the protection OF
Cuban fisheries and the prevention Of
smuggling.
He desires that all the naval property
be turned over to the Cubans and that 0
large staff be employed at the naval
arsenal in repairing ships which could b.
made self supporting. In the schemt
many officers are arranged for, together
with numerous clerks Of departments
and subdepartnents.
Last year the entire plan was rejected
as unnecessary, 1t being felt that l.
small revenue cutters would be adequate
and that these could be maintained much
cheaper In connection with the customs
department. General Wood takes thu
same view, and the Cuban navy, there.
fore, will probably remain in abeyano
until Cuba Is independent.
Cuban ''justAe" is recognized as hav.
ing become merely p matter Of dollars
and cents, and the Cuban lawyers seem
to object to all reforms. For instance,
the charge against Secretary SouHa u
the cathedral court. who was arrested
Friday night for bribery, has not beer
referred 70 BY any Havana paper print
ed in Spanish. One editor, when the case
was called TO bis attention, said ks could
not afford to antssonize men holding
such positions. Even though marked
money was found on SQUADS person and
the conversation between him and Carloi
Bacarrisse, in which he said that JUS
tice cost money, was overheard by de-
tective whom Bacarrisse had employed
at the suggestion Of Governor General
Wood, it is still felt that the official will
not be punished.
A similarly gloomy view is taken with
reference to the outcome Of the custom
house fraud cases.

MONDAY, JUNE IL. 1000.

THE interest in the war in South
Africa seems to have been over
Swallowed by the persecution Of the
Christian missionaries in China.
Many chapels have been burned
and various missionaries murdered
by the members Of an organization
called the Boxers. The Queen has
ostensibly made an effort to put a
stop to the prosecutions practiced,
but it is said she has secretly en-
Outraged the miscreants to proceed
with their nefarious work. Marines
have been landed from the Russian,
German, French, English and
American warships lying In the
harbor, to protect the different
Consulates, but the Chinese auth
critics do not favor their Interior
ence, and thus far not a gun has
been fired by the foreigners to put
down the murderous order. Wheth-
er the marines will be called into
action or not remains to be seen.
The Queen, however. insists that
her police, aided by her army, are
sufficient to afford protection to the
lives and property Of the mission
aries, while her actions argue to
the contrary. If the marines are
forced to act, 1t may result in chang
ing the present dynasty, an@'the
establishment OF stronger and more
progressive rules. AS an excuse
for this unholy crusade by the Box
ers, it is said the people are threat
eSed with famine in consequence of
the drought and the suspension of
employment, and hence much OF the
lawlessness complained Of. A ser.
les of heavy rains would 90 great
way to restore order, as the Boxers
would return to their usual avoca-
tions, and cease to interfere with
the mission aries. whom they blame
for their mistortunes. We hope the
troubles will soon Ease and great
er liberty and greater encourage
ment to the missionaries will fol-
low.
