Kingdom is within you. Make more Of

Regeneration.
What a world this will be when ii is
weighed after its regeneration shall
have taken place! Scientists now guess
at the number of tons our world
weighs, and they put the Apennines
and the Sierra Nevadas and Chimbo-
raZo and the Himalayas in the scales,
but If weighed as to its morals at the
present time in the royal balance the
heaviest things would be the wars. the
international hatredS, the crimes noun

ger the hemisphcres on their way
through immensely. But when the Cos
pei has gardenizcd the earth, as it will
yet gardenize ii. and the atmosphere
shall be universal lain, and the soil
shall produce universal harvest and
fruitage, ard the last cavalry horse
shall he unsaddled. and the last gun
carriage unwheeled, and the last for

war once was. then the world will be
weighed. and as the opposite side of
the scales lifts as though il was light
as feather the right side of the scales
will come down, weighing more than
all else, those tremendous values that

l~nsress Can LeGiaIatc For Acquired
Territory.


The United States supreme court by
vote Of to has sustained the con-
tention Of the government that con-
gress could legislate as it pleased for
territory acquired by the United States.
Upon this fundamental question, sus-
tanning the policy of the administration
and of congress to levy a special tariff
duty on Porto Rico. Justice Brown de-
livered the opinion in what is known as
the Downes case. He was supported
by Justices Gray, Shiras, White and
McKenna. The dissenters were Chief
Justice Fuller and Justices Harlan,
Brewer and Psckham.
On the DE Lima case, which related
simply to the statutory construction
whether Porto Rico ceased to be for
eign country after being coded by
the treaty with Spain. it was held that
Porto Rico in its transitory stage was
domestic territory, and therefore in
that period all productions of the Unit
ed States and Of Porto Rico should
have been exchanged free of duty.
In this position, oddly enough. the
sided with Justice Brown. again
speaking for the majority. Thus JUS
tice Brown was grouped with Chief
Justice Fuller and Justices Harlan,
Brewer and Peckham at one time and
with Justices Gray. Shiras, White and
Mckenna at another. In both cases
Justice Brown practically was the
whole court. He had opposed to him
and with him those with whose reason
ing and position the others did not
agree.
1t is not necessary TO go into more
than the two cases named to make
clear and definite what the supreme
court decisions mean.
1t is decided. first, that Porto Rico
was foreign territory during military
occupation and up to the time when
the ratifications of the treaty of peace
were exchanged.
Second.-That after the exchange of
the Publications of the treaty of peace
and until congress acted it was domes-
tic territory. All productions of the
United States. therefore, went free in
to Porto Rico, and all productions Of
Porto Rico should come free into the
United States.
Third.-lt is decided that the United
States consists only of the Ii original
states and such other states as have
since been added and that they had the
right to legislate for any newly ac-
quired territory.
FCur; h.-That t, @ Foraker law is con-
Stitutional

The wish of this sermon Is to empha-

that the scales which weigh your body
are not as important as the scales
which weigh your soul. Depend not

temple and the Oriental collection which goes
with it are valued 1T more than half a million
dollars, and have been presented to the univer-
fity by Professor Maxwell Sunmerville, who has
spent many years in the work of collection.
There are countless objects symbolic of the

A CHOIR SCHOOL.
ONE ORGANIZED AT CATHEDRAL
HEIGHTS TO TRAIN SMALL BOYS
FOR THE SERVICE.
CATHEDRAL

The people who visit Cathedral Heights to see
the work which is going on there the model
of the cathedral which is on exhibition on the
grounds do not all know that choir school
has been organized the cathedral grounds
and that the pupils of the school assist at the
services in the crypt every day. The school
organized short time ago. and occupies
quarters in the old asylum building where a
light and cheerful schooIroom a well equipped
gymnasium and carpenter shop have been ar
ranged for the little boys who are being edu-
Gated for services in the cathedral choir
In consideration of the fact that the boys
| agree to become choristers of the cathedral they
receive their education free, parents having no
expense except that of books and stationery and
| uniform Boys admitted between the
ages of nine and twelve if they are vouched for
by the rector of their church or by some other
| reputable clergyman and if they have a good
voice and correct musical ear" The boys
do not become full fiedged pupils of the school
| until they have attended for six weeks on pro-
bation II after that period they are admitted
to the choir school their parents or guardians
| must sign an agreement not to remove them
without express permission
The Rev. Ernest Voorhis who is the super
intendent of the school. in speaking of the
curriculum, said that the education impaired
| to the boys is further reaching than that OF
| the public schools. and that the boys are sur
ro~-ided by refining and elevating influences
The school differs from the ordinary day school
| in far that its sessions begin at 8 o'clock in
| the morning, and the boys remain under the
| supervision of DIR. Voorhis until after evening
service. The school work is not continuous
| there being three intermiSsiOns for play. Be
| sides these breaks in the days school routine
| the boys have one half hours instruction daily
| in the gymnasium and in the carpenter shop
The boys will remain in the school until
| their voices have broken but if they wish to
| continue their studies and prepare for college
| they will be allowed to do 80 al a nominal cost
The school has only few pupils at present
but the applications of number of boys are
jhow under consideration, and the choir school
will probably have it's full quota of pupils in
a short time and prove valuable auxiliary to
