Andalusia and Buffalo. She left
Kahllle's boatyard about o'clock
and steamed down stream slowly in
order to test the machinery At the
two villages good sized party of
passengers and some freight were
picked up. On the return against the
current the boat behaved admirably,
showing degree of speed when given
an opportunity that delighted her
master and crew. \ landing was
first madeSat Davenport and at noon
she came to this side, touching a the
foot of Seventeenth street, where

This afternoon she left down the

men had to be sacrificed at its shrine
and though the walls of the temple had
to be covered with the captured tro-
phies Even the Hebrews were and
are ready to worship such a temporal
king. Only the other day the chief rab-
bi of the west declared in a Chicago
newspaper that his people were still
expecting a Messiah who would come
as a temporal cOnqueror to lead the
Jews back again to Palestine. Then
these modern Hebrew crusaders would
again see Jerusalem restored in all its
past grandeur, and there JesrA would
reign with greater power than the IA
nous King Solomon Of Old.
But though it was not difficult to
think Of God as a God cf power and
temporal conquest. it was difficult in
the time that Jesus WAS born 70 think
of the Father as a GuG OF love and
sympathy and mere.'' a God who
would deign to care for an individual
human being; a God who wanted to
creep into the human hearts affections,
even as the sunbeams would steal into
the heart and give new life to the
plant 1t was difficult. in one sense.
for God to teach sinful men that he did
not want to crush them, but to save
them of their own free will 1t was
difficult for him to teach all men. both
Jew and gentle, that Christ did not
come as Hebrew Christ, but as the
worlds Saviour. So, if we may use an
imaginative description, God the Fa-
ther might have spoken to Jesus Christ
in a way something like this: Il will
not allow thee, my only Son. to be born
I in palace. l will not allow thee to
enter the world as an earthly prince.
/ Sinful men might then honor thee and
fear thee, but they might not then take
thee into their hearts and of their own
accord love thee and give themselves
to thee. l will send thee forth as a
helpless babe. I will let thee be born
in Bethlehem of JudRa, so helpless
that the lOwliest of the lowly will not
have a more humble entry into the
world than thou. Go forth. my Son,
not only to atone for the sins of the
world. but also to teach all sinful men
that | am God the Father, the God of
Love" Could the divine love have
been manifested in a more simple way
than by Christ's cradle being the man
ger of Bethlehem of JudGa?

Tne manger Christ was given as a
human example for sinful man to fol
low this side Of the grave. He came to
prove that by the grace of God it is pos
sible for a human being to overcome
sin; he came to prove it, because Christ
was born Just as we are, bone of our
bone and flesh of our flesh. He was
tempted just as we are tempted. There
fore we must continually. by the Holy
Spirits power. strive to be like him or
else we ean be none of his.
We all realize the power of inspiring
example in naval and military life.
When Admiral Dewey was asked what
was his chief inspiration which caused
him TO enter Manila harbOr, the hero

saying to myself, what would the hero
of Mobile bay do if he were in my
place? Lashed in the rigging. he
would defy the tOrpedoes and cry to
the engineers to go ahead, and so into
Manila harbor I went" The victory
of the Pacific ocean was only the echo

The Lesson of the Nativity.


On Oct. 20, 1895, l was brought face
to face with the true teachings of the

one Of the most overwhelming days of
my life. 1t happened in Bethlehem of
Jud9a. l was sitting in the Greek
Catholic church, which is supposed to
have been erected directly upon the
identical spot where Jesus was born.
In that hallOwed place l had read over
and over again the account of the ma
tivity until it seemed as though the
walls of the eastern edifice We're chang

hand, and while l read the nativity ac-
count over and over l suddenly heard
the soft whisperings of chant. lis
tened and at first said: 1T cannot be.
No; am listening only to the echoes of
my own imagination" But the faint
chanting began to grow louder. Then
l saw a multitude of people coming
through the church door as the shep-
herds must have once crowded through
/ the entrance of the ancient stable. Then
the procession came nearer and nearer
and laid at my feet the body of little
child. AS sat there and looked at the
face of the dead baby whose funeral
was now taking place my heart went

LABOR AND CAPITAL.
BISHOP POTTER'S ADDRESS, AT HENDRTE HALL LAST EVENING.

Brains Create weaIth-The Rights and
 Handicaps of the Laboring Man-The
 Specialization of Industry Trades
 Unions and Walking DeIegates-
 Moral Responsibility of Captains of
 Industry.
 Bishop Potter, of New York, last evening delivered his second lecture in the William F. Dodge course at Hen drie hall on The Citizen in His Rela- ton to Industrial Problems"
 The bishops previous remarks were of an introductory nature, and last eye- ming he resumed the question by seek ing to properly define what is meant by the term labor Most sociologists have erred by making the term of an inclusive nature. The commonly ac- cepted understanding of the term la bor'' is clearest defined exclusively as muscular exertion. The theory of one school of sophists that wealth belongs of right to the laborer who creates it was then disposed of by the lecturer .'Nothing is more grotesque," said he, ssthan the idea that the labor actually creates the wealth. It is foresight, in telligence and the genius of invention that lays its magic hand upon labor and brings about the vast result"
 The lecturer sympathized strongly with the workingman as a victim of the specializa tion of industries to-day. The result of this narrowing of his range de- mands immediate recognition It's ef- fleets are stupefying and benumbng on the workman, disabling him as wage earner, except in one certain factory and one particular set of tools, and heightening the caste feeling.
 The speaker approved of trades unionisin as increasing the workman insight into economic conditions. The walking delegate, so offensive to public opinion, is justified, because the work < mans making demands usually results in his dismissal. The walking delegate is a representative the employer is un- able to strike.
 The failure of such schemes as indus trial cooperation, proft-sharing and colectiveism shows that it is not change of economic method. but , change of viewpoint which must solve the social problem. Legislation can do considerable to distribute the present perquisites of the few among the many but the greatest headway will be made when the captains of industry recognize that they bear a moral as well as an economic responsibility.

any one. Have each sign the printed order and application authorizing you to purchase outside of the state.
 Fifth-If any one is d friend and 6 sensible man he will see at once that it is worth considerable to him to be able to say truthfully at any time or place he may be called upon and with a clear conscience, that he never bought any thing from you contrary to law.
 Sixth-Never allow minors or con- firmed drunkards" to become members. Remember, everything is done in le- gal manner and according to law and as the laws of the United States direct, and not against the laws as some would have the public think.
