hold sower went forth to SOW; and when
he sowed, some seeds fell by the wayside
and the fowls devoured them up; some
fell upon stony places, where they had not
| much earth and forthwith they sprung
up, because they had n, deepness of
earth and when the sun Was upon them
they were scorched and hscause they had
no root they withereG away But other
fell upon good ground ana brought forth
fruit, some one humid ID. come sixty, and
some thirty fold
The seed, the speaker explained is the
word OF God. the spirit of the Holy Ghost
and as in all things human, so it is in the
divine, unless the seed be planted in good
ground and cultivated it will not yield
fruit. The parable explains that the sower
in casting the seed let some fall upon
rocks, some upon barren ground, and other
upon fertile soil While that which fell
upon the rocks and barren ground sprung
up and showed signs of life 1t soon wither-
ed and died for lack of cultivation, while
that which was sown in fertile soil lived
and bore fruit. The seed. he said, IS the
word of God. and humanity. the soil, and
unless the former is received into the lat
ter and cultivated 1t will not bear fruit.

Is. however, it cannot accomplish anything
alone, il can do so only with the aid of him
who gave IL life nd strength. However
Bishop keane said the accomplishment or
Gods work depends upon the soil, for he
so wilied it. He gave to man the respon-
sibillty Of free Will. and there must be
a collaboration between the human and the
divine in order that his will be done.
There are two things necessary to gain
life, first humanity must receive the seed
and second it must cultivate 1t. Man
must keep up the cultivation, for by 1t
alone can he live. Man. he said. will
never be what God intended he should
until the best of the human co-operates

A large audience greeted Representa-
tive Kahn of California at the Saenger-
bund Hall last night to listen to his lee
ture on Some Interesting Spots in Cal
ifornia" Simon Wolf introduced Mr..
Kahn who said in part
James Sheridan Knowles, when he
wrote his poem on the natural beauties of
Switzerland had never seen California;
but his beautiful word painting is as ap-
plicable to the Golden State as to the
sturdy little Republic that FOR centuries
has managed to exist in the heart of the
Alps. OF course, we haven't any native
strains that melt us as We sing them
but who that has ever listened to the
thunder of the cataracts and waterfalls of
Yosemite, the moaning Of the wind
through the big trees OF the Mariposa and
Calaveras groves. the roaring of the Pa
cihc as her waves impinge themselves
against the seal rocks at San Francisco
can ever forget the matchless music fur
nished by Mother Nature in that magnlh-
cent Empire State of the West. beside
which all other music sounds fiat and dis
cordant
The subject for this evenings dis
course is one that lends itself to many
possibilities. The scenes through which
propose TO lead you have been the theme
of many q poets song. OF many a his
torian's researches, OF many a philoso-
piers musings, OF many novelist's ro-
mances. Of many a scientists reflections"
MIR. Kahn then gave a brief outline of
the history of California under Spanish
rule. its explorations, and many discov-
cries in that land. but especially fose-
mite Valley Mr.. Kahn presented about

the past of other nations, we stand not
with a past that We have to explain. God
has brought the blood and the achieve
ments and the graces of all nationalities
and all the centuries together that in This
theatre there might be nationality full
grown and developed. We stand on an
equality with nations that had centuries
for their making God has given us a
gift in our place among nations. There
was time when our life was like that of
a village, when Americans sometimes
were ashamed to be called Americans
And now We have given fifteen OF the IN
ventions of the century to the world
which were not only recognized as such
but which were for the benefit of human
ity. We send American coal to Newcas-
tie and American knives to Sheffield.
American locomotives carry trains
through Russia and in European capitals
the bellies ride in American carriages and
drink from American goblets. Our friend
John Bull smokes American cigarettes,
and | believe that IL ever the Turk should
pay us what he owes us he will pay il in
American gold. The first march that was
played at the wedding of that sweet little
Presbyterian Queen Wilhelmina was COM
posed by an American. We are no
longer provincial. but International The
word America is waited for everywhere
where. God has given us first place in
the national life, in the achievement of
the coming commerce, in the application
of national legislation, and in the great
march of humanity this nationality
stands with first voice in the councils OF
the world; that's Gods gift God summons
us to accept the gift. In this gift there
is the one distinct resultant of a distinct
national life. God has poured into it the
energy of one. the wit of another, the YER
sati!ity or the genius OF another not
that there may be the perpetuation of the
distinctions. but that there may be a
complete resultant. rich and perfect ma
ton. the American. The distinct ideas of
American nationality are humanity, in
teligenoe, and piety.
1--WE cannot surrender the Sabbath.
The meeting house OF New England was
the recruiting place for revolutionary
soldiers, and the preachers were their
leaders. There never would have been a
Republic had there not been a church and
a Bible. We are unfaithful to our tradi-
tons IL we desecrate our Sabbath. The
observance of that day gave grit as well
as grace. 1t carries In Itself today the
perpetuity of our institutions And in he
public school the Bible and the religious
influence must remain. The school is an
institution of Christian Republic. The
words of prayer and hymns have a legiti-
mate place in our public schools. The
hymns of Christianity have a right there
and must not be removed To eliminate
religious sentiment from public schools
is to turn millions of children into dan
gerous paths. Humanity, intelligence,
and piety are the traditions of our ma
tional life. Our loyalty and our duty de-
mand that traditions remain. Our hope is
based upon the Bible and the church"

GODS GIFTS TO AMERICANS.

IA the course OF his sermon:
.The gift inspires gratitude. Gratitude

which is the only genuine response of the
grateful heart. We have as Americans a
