First M. e. Church.

In the morning the pastors subject
was, "Christ's Sympathy for a Lost
World" Jesus wept over Jerusalem
because of its wickedness. He is full
of sorrow and sympathy for lost sim
ners who will not turn to Him. He is
the best friend man ever had. He is
the lest friend women ever had or will
have. He understands all our sorrows
and can sympatize with us and IL we
will only let Him will take our bur
dens upon Himself. What the world
needs today is more sympathy, more
large-hearted men and women who can
weep over the world s sorrows.
In the evening the subject was,
"The Living Cod" You ask the Ques-
ton, SIS there living God?" One re-
plies, "Ido not know" another, II
think so;" and still another, II know
that there is" And so there is. Ev-
erything proves 1t. A right thinking
person cannot look at nature without
feeling that there is a greater force
than human behind 1T all. Science
proves it, and our hearts prove it. God
d avs man by love. He cannot make
him come IL he will not, but by his
c conscience He strives to win him for
heaven.

Corunna Avenue M. e. Church.

The morning sermon was on "Chris-
tian Stewardship" The text was
Malachi $40. This was the last word
on the subject in the Old Testament.
There is given:
l. A communicating ye all the
tithes.
2. The purpose-That there may be
meat Ia my house.
3. A challenge to faith in God-Try
Me saith the Lord.
a. A promise-I will pour you out a
BLESSING.
The subject opens up the matter Of
tithing, which seems to have been a
law prior to Moses, as shown in the
practice Of Abraham and Jacob. The
Mosaic law ordained tenth for the
support OF the Levites and another
tenth for the expenses connected with
the annual festivals.
Passing from the Old to the New
Testament, we lind the principles OF
the old made the foundation for the
moral and practical laws ia the gospel.
But the gospel emphasizes the idea Of
stewardship as taught In the parallels
Of the talents and the pounds. This
implies that the christian and all he
has belongs to God. Surely such an
one ought at least: l. To give pro-
portionate part Of his income to the
work Of the Lord. 2. To give 1t regu-
larry and systematically. This would
furnish him. fund out OF which to
pay the calls for religious work and
charity, and IL the majority did this
the supply would be abundant.

THE GRANGE LECTURER

In the Grange there is no more i'm
portant office than that of Lecturer.
We do not except that of master.
Why? Because the interest and attend
ance upon the Grange meeting depends
on the lecturer to very large degree.
If that officer is awake to his duties and
provides a good program and then sees
that it is carried out, he will find an at
tentive and .appreciative audience.
And without good program, large
attendance at the regular meetings is
not probable. By all means prepare the
program in advance, for six months OF
even year; make the assignments and
pledge those to whom parts are given to
be on hand when their evening comes
unless prevented by circumstances be-
yond their control Follow the subjects
suggested by the National Grange and
add such others as may be of local inter
est. A working Grange is a live Grange
and a successful one.

Cakes, Lansing, Signs Charges
Wy Against Rev. Andrews. "
ALLEGED HE EXPORTED S125
Says Andrews Told Him Men Were
Working to Gust Him and Asked
Money to Use His Influence With
Them.

Lansing. Mich, April 23.-W. b,
Cakes, local agent for the United
States Express Co.. has signed COM
plant charging Rev. j. A. Andrews Of
the First Baptist church of this city
with blackmail. Mr. Cakes alleges that
IN Jan. 80 Andrews waited on him and
represented that a certain man, whose
name he refused to divulge, was seek
ing Oakes's position as agent, and
that he had prepared a petition which
had been signed by five well-known
citizens OF Lansing, whom Andrews
named. The petition, according to
Andrews's statement, charged that
Cakes had been seen drinking and in
toxicated on certain dates.
The clergyman is also alleged to
have assured Cakes that he had ap-
pealed to the manhood of these citi-
Zens and urged them to cease in their
efforts to displace the agent, but no
effect. Finally he mentioned money,
and is alleged to have represented to
Cakes that his enemies had consented
to abandon their efforts In considera-
ton of the payment to them of $3.50.
The agent, not being able to raise this
sum, Andrews is alleged to have prom
ised to make another effort to pacify
the accusers. This effort resulted in
their offer to take s125 and call the
attack off,
Cakes alleges that ne was complete
ly deceived by the clergyman's story,
and paid him the $125. He claims to
have since learned that Andrews
story was wholly untrue, each of the
citizens named by the minister, and
all are prominent men of undoubted
integrity, denying any knowledge of
the transaction.

THE CHANGERS, SONG.

TO Coronation:
Go back to eighteen seventy-four,
And hear the Patron say,
"Our cause is just, Wen work for more
Come join our Grange today"
The Changers had a mind to work,
1t was not always play,
And on they went, and did not shirk
The Grange has come to stay.
These Changers true upheld the right
And said that fraud must go,
And in the thickest of the fight,
They tackled Cleo.
Some charter members here we find,
They're not all here today;
They were so good and true and kind
There are but seven today.
We know that death doth thin oul
ranks,
And brief will be our stay;
May we all meet in heavenly ranks,
In everlasting day. H. Jewell.

THINKS WALLER WAS HASTY
Lukban Writes his Officers, Advising
Them to Surrender-Many Arms
Believed Concealed in Cavite Prov
ince.

Washington, April 23.-The war de-
partment has made public report
from Gen. Chaffee, dated March II,
which epitomizes the situation in the
various parts of the Philippine archi-
pelago in manner that is particularly
satisfactory to the officials here in
view of the congressional demand for
exact and late information.
Speaking of the trial Of Major Wal
Ter and Lieut.. Day Of the marine
corps, he says:
1.-THE purpose of this trial is to in
quire into an unlawful execution of
some natives by these officers. The
cause Of the execution is alleged to
be that the natives turned on the ma
rines in the mountains and tried to
take the life of Lieut.. Williams. The
natives came out of the mountains
with the command, however, and when
sent to Basey from Hacloban it was
reported to Major Waller that they
had assaulted Lieut.. Williams of the
marine corps, and n other ways
turned traitors to the command.
Major Waller, on what l think a
very slight inquiry, ordered them exc
cuted. They were his prisoners at the
time and of course should have been
tried, if believed to be guilty Of the
offense alleged.
ITO show how difficult it Is to &C
complish our task down there, we
are daily finding arms and picking up
men and receiving surrenders on the
very ground that has been most care
fully covered or gone over with a
large force spread out during the first
two weeks of January. What we are
getting now were secreted then, and
we nave no knowledge that even we
shall succeed entirely in obtaining all
the arms secreted there, or through
out the country. In Cavite province,
which adjoins Manila, we are satisfied
there are many arms secreted.
"Lukban since his arrest has writ
ten many letters to his officers still in
the woods, advising them to surren-
der; these have been sent out by Gen.
Smith to the parties to whom adj
dressed, and we hear that they will
have conference somewhere near the
head of the Gandara river to talk mat
