 GODS FARM
 Text I Cor. III: 9. "Ye arc Gods husbandry." The marginal reading titled lands"
 The following is in part what Mir. Hay said: In our text the apostle is addressing the Church of God at Cor inth. He likens the congregation to a cultivated field under the direct care of God. Paul. Apollos, Peter and other preachers a md teachers in the churches, were Gods servants, working under God for the cultivating of His fields
 His congregations. The members of the Corinthian church were magni- lying the parts performed by their fla voritc preachers. Paul rcbukcs their wrong and reminds them that they should glory in the Lord and not in His ministers. Christians were the property of the Lord and not of their preachers. Their ground of confidence was the fact that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit were enlisted in their sal vation from sin and death. Therefore he wrote: ''I planted, Apollos water cd. tirrigatedl but God gave the in- crease. So then neither is he that pla ntcd anything, neither he that wat ercth, but God that giveth the in rcasec. Now he that planteth aud he that watcreth are one tpartncrsl For we are Gods fellow workers: ye arc Gods titled land, Gods building" I Cor. III: 6-9.
 Let us rejoice that the work which we inaugurate today in Imperial is Gods work. The honor of being CO., laborcrs with God in His congrega- tions is the highest honor enjoyed OH earth. Our comfort and our ground of courage aud expectation is the assur- ance of Christ the Lord, "I.o, am with you" This promise is condition al upon our proving faithful to the part assigned His servants. The Great Com mission reads as follows: GO ye therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I com ma nded you. and To am with you all way, even unto the end of the world"
 TRANSFORMATIONS
 Under this commission the gospel has been preached among the greatest variety of races and peoples on the face of the earth. Its transforming effects have been the same wherever men have become true followers of Christ. Paul wrote to the Corinthians in these words: Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adultereTs, nor effeminatc, nor abusers of themselves with men, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revi- lers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the Kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye

 The grand outcome is likeness to Jesus in heart and conduct. This is the perfection of human nature. It can be reached only by obed- fence to the teachings of Christ and prayerful effort to be like Him. Tn each congregation Christ's disciples are banded together as one household of faith in order to assist one another in learning and prac,icing the Christian life. They also labor as one partner ship for the salvation of their neigh. bors and of the nations. Thus each congregation is one of Gods titled fields, undergoing the cultivation which He has appointed.
 THg FUTURE CRgATSEss OF oUR IMPR-
 RIAL COUNTRY
 What shall be the glory of these fer tile plainsl Shall it be only great crops of grasses and grains, fine vine- yards and orchards, superior horses, sheep and cattlcl or shall its chief glory be the splendid men and women here producedl Shall the people of this re- zion in the daysto come be able to say of noble sons and daughters, blessing them at home and honoring them abroad, "these are our treasures, our delight and our glory?"
 Would we here have such a future we must do our part as workers to- gether with God. We should place d just value on physical culture. We should highly esteem mental culture. But we must hold as of paramount i'm portance the spiritual culture provided for mankind in Christ. In that dread full hour at Buffalo when our great and loved President was confronted by the assa ssin, the world had set before it in striking contrast the two opposite pos abilities of human nature. On the one hand the grandeur attained by a devout disciple of Christ, and on the other hand the shocking degradation of human being irreligious, ungodly and dcvilish in nature.
 And since the church is Gods church his association of believers for pre- serving and disseminating the truth which is the Holy Spirits instrument in conversion and sanctifiication-we should love the church. We read of Christ that He "loved the church and gave Himself up for it.'
 The measure of our love for the church will be what we give to the church of thought, of prayer, of time and money and labor. Should not this day wherein public worship is inaugu- rated in Imperial be day of gratitude and re joicing thanksgiving to God and gratitude to the brother whose heart has been moved to rear this house of prayer and praise. And shall we not celebrate the day best by dedi- eating ourselves to the service of God here in our new home?
 "I love thy kingdom Lord,
 The home of thine abode,
 The church our blest Redeemer saved,
 With his own precious blood.
 For her my tears shall flow,
 For her my prayers ascend;
 To her my cares and tolls be given,

Tramway Lines.
NEW YORK, Nov. 5-Concerning the
report that an American syndicate has

Generate de Traction, which owns a
number of lines entering the city, the
Paris correspondent of The Herald ca
bles:
new factor will very shortly make
itself felt il the affairs of the tramway
systems i'll Paris. A party of American
capitalists is about to invest large sum
OF money-millions, it is said-in the
development and strengthening of lines
controlled by the Campagnie Generate
Gle Traction of Paris.
The principal and best paying route
controlled by this company runs from
the Place de POpera through the Rue
de Quatre Septembre to Les Diales.
Another runs from the Notifications
past the AuUeuil race course.
The operations of the company have
not been successful of late, principally
owing to the fact that it has not been
able 60 secure the capital necessary for
the proper equipment of it's lines.
A rival tramway organization, known
as the Thomson Houston company, has
been endeavoring for some time past to
secure control of the Oampagnie Gen
erale de Traction, but the latter fought
against this absorption, preferring to
secure additional capital from outside
sources. 1t has now practically sue

Leading Companies to Consolidate
With Capital of $2O,OOO,OOO.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-Plans are being
discussed among some of the important
makers of printing presses for the pur.
pose of organizing a consolidated COM
pany, says The Journal of Commerce,
but the movement had not got beyond
an embryo stage, according to parties
interested in the new project.
The report goes on to state that if the
plans are carried out the combination
will include the Cox duplex and the
Huber works, the Mlehle Printing Press
and Manufacturing company, the Pot
ter printing works at Springfield. Mass.
the Campbell Printing Press and Man
ufacturing company, the Goss Printing
Press company, the Whitlock Printing
Press and Manufacturing company and
Walter Scott % Co.
There have been reports from time to
time that Hoe & Co. might enter the
mbine. The management of Hoe g
Co. has steadily refused to enter into
any amalgamation, no matter what the
character, and consequently rumors of
this nature find little credence in bust
ness circles. It is stated that estimates
of the capital stock of the new combi-
nation range anywhere from SIS, 900, 900
to $50, 100000.

Austrian Claims Acainst Tnrkeu-

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The CONSTANT.
nople correspondent of the London
Times and the New York Times says
the Austrian claims against Turkey,
which have just been settled, were all
of a serious character. They included
charges against officers and men of the
gendarmes in Albany, who threatened
and insulted Austrian consuls and per-
secuted Austrian girls. There was much
difficulty in obtaining reparation, be-
cause the offenders belong TO the AL
banian clan, which supplies the sultan S
bodyguard and his majesty feared their
vengeance.
