Caucus asst Night.

A Joint Democratic caucus was held in
proposed new election law.

read and considered, section by section.
About half of it was gone over. and a
number of amendments adopted Another
caucus will be held tonight to complete
it's, consideration. D1s
The question Of "a legalized primary,
endorsed By the last Demo :ratic State
convention and provided for in a bill
new pending in the Senate. was also
taken up and referred to a sub committee,
which is expected to report to the caucus
tonight.
The election law as now drawn provides
for a State Board of Elections composed of
three men. of whom not more than two

county boards, likewise, she'll be COM
posed of three persons, only two of whom
can be Of the same party.

WICKED CHICAGO.

Young men of the Fourth Baptist
church, of which the Rev. kittredge
Wheeler is pastor, again made a tour of
the west side streets of Chicago on q
Sunday morning and the reports of the
dissertation of the day which they
brought in to the pastor formed the ba-
sis of a second sermon on THE Sabbath
in Chicago" The first had dealt with
the conditions on West Madison street.;
that of the last evening was on the re-
suits of the investigation along West
Van Buren, street.
1.-The Sabbath Dissertation in Chicago
is appalling" said Mr.. Wheeler. Sun
day theaters. base ball games, public
amusements and many lines of business
are doing all they can to obliterate every
yestige Of this holy day. And the saloons
those open sewers; those pitfalls OF
lhell-the saloons of the city, so general
l!y In closest connection With the house
Of shame, are stimulating adultery and
are fed by this leprosy- these are open
eevry hour of the Sabbath day.
i"This mornings canvass on West Van
Buren, street shows terrible conditions.
Twenty groceries, seventeen cigar and
tobacco stores, eight gents furnishing
goods stores, seven laundries and six BIZ
cycle repair shops. and, above all, forty
three saloons!
Lake street from the river to West
ern avenue is even worse, not In the
number of business places open, hut In
the variety, Groceries, markets, tailors.
jewelers., printing offices, real estate,
general merchandise, harnessmakers,
coal offices. blaoksmithing, milliners and
others. The saloons easily led the rest
and doubled any other.
Three weeks ago a canvass was made
for me by my young men on the condi-
lions along West Madison street, be-
tween Western avenue and the river. II
showed All business places open on Sum
day morning. Photographers, tailors,
shoe stores. gents furnishing, groceries
and 1870 saloons. This on West Madison
street in less than two and one-hali
mlles
ION these three streets within two
and one half miles there were s46 places
open and carrying on business Sunday
morning as on any other day. II we ex-
tend this thruout the whole city what
would the canvass showY Uundoubted-
ly the same results. Is 1t not time not
only for the church but for all good and
respectable citizens to abstain from
every form of business on. the Sabbath
ard to do all In their power to observe
the day and to perpetuate this funda-
mental Christian institution?
Chicago needs less business and more

LESS slavery and more Sabbath rest. God

essential to man, Fundamentally related
to man, as is the light, the bread and
the water. Il man can attain his high
est life without the Sabbath. without a
day or hour which has the stamp OF God
upon 1T, then I would not stand for Its
observance. But such is not the fact, is
not history. The Sabbath-keeping ma
ton is the brightest in the world. The
Sabbath-keeping man is the highest
type of manhood in the world.
The Sabbath is not Mosaic any more
than marriage is Mosaic. There are two
sacred institutions which have survived
not only the flood but the fall. These ara
the Sabbath and marriage. The Sab
bath, a sacramento bond between God
and man; marriage, sacramental bond
between man and woman. Let them
stand inviolate and holy. both are or
dained of God in that sfar-off sinless
paradise, and both fragrant still with

MISUNDERSTANDING
THINK PRAYERS WILL DO GOOD.
Rarely have conditions been SO urgent
as to move the farmers of the corn belt
70 seek the efficacy of united prayer to
fring rain to fields of suffering corn. The
general efficacy of prayer in cases Of
dire distress is religious question, ac-
cording to ministers, that has been un-
DER discussion for years, and great va
rance Of opinion has resulted.
In such cases of great distress think
that the holding Of q general day for
prayer in the stricken district is the
right thing to do" said the Rev. w. M.
Lawrence, of the Chicago Second Bap-
list church. In Just such cases know
OF many miraculous results, and results
OF material kind. Many times when
people, have earnestly and unselfshly
gathered together to ask for the grant
ing OF some urgent call their prayers
have been answered
sometimes in case of earnest praye.
the answer Will come in way that is
unexpected, but will turn out to be the
pest possible answer of the entreaty.
The farmer who prays for his corn may
not see his corn fields spared to him, but
re may make 1t up on his wheat crop"
The Rev. Hedley Hall said: THE day
OF general prayer for rain on the
drought-stricken lands will amount to
nothing. The prostrating Of ones self
before God in asking some specific and
immediate want is heathenish custom
and never gains Gods law can not be
changed by petition and his favor can
not be won by these farmers who are
seeking direct granting of their
wishes
The Rev. Frank Crane, OF the Hyd.
Park Methodist church, said: ut may
he Gods will to send rain to the parched
corn lands of the middle west. The real
good that prayer brings is the effect it
! has upon the character of the man who
prays. 1t is all in Gods providence.
Not every mans prayer is going to be
answered. If such were the case instead
OF having Gods plan we would have the
plans of hundred million fools working
at cross purposes
