In his sermon, Bishop Willis said:
considering the issue of their life
initiate their faith. Jesus Christ, TIE
same yesterday and today and for
ever."-Heb,, xiii:7.
1t is thus that the revised version
renders the concluding half of the pas
sage in the epistle to the Hebrews
which in the ancient version is render
ed, Remember them which have the
rule over you, who have spoken unto
you the word of God, whose faith fol-
low. considering the end of their con-
versatlon, Jesus Christ the same yes
terday and today and forever"
BY these words the Hebrew Chris
tians were exhorted to call to mind
how those who first preached to them
the word of God sealed their testimony
with their blood, and by that issue of
their lives left them an example of
faith which they are called to initiate.
Among those who had first preached
to them the word Of God were. the first
martyr, st. Stephen, and ST. James,
whom Herod beheaded. With the mene-
cries awakened of the blood-stained
path by which they made their exit
eternal, the readers of this epistle are
hidden to initiate the faith which sus-
tanned them in those last hours when
the world power rose up against them
and trampled them under foot, That
faith thrown out as an anchor into the
invisible world by which they held fast
through storm and tempest was faith
in Jesus Christ, the same yesterday
and today and forever
This is the faith which each genera
ton is called to initiate. The faith OF
the church cannot change. The faith
of the Apostles is the faith of the
church today, and IL the world last
another nineteen centuries, the faith
once delivered will be the unchanged
and unchanging bond OF union be-
tween the members of the church or
earth, and those at rest In Paradise.
In this faith the Cathedrals of Europe
rose in their stately magnihcence

PERSECUTION OF TITUS.
Sculler Tells of Method Pursued to
Damage His Standing.

NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-The breach be-
tween C. S. Titus. the sculler. and GER
tain members of the Union Boat Club Is
widening 10 such an extent that before
it is healed there is likely to be consid-
cradle besmirching of character.
Titus is determined to stand his
ground. no matter what may be the out
come, and makes no secret when he
says that several OF his fellow members
In the club will come out Of the fray at
the finish little more despatched than
he will 1t appears, too, that the Union
Club retainers are determined to make
trouble for the oarsman 10 the bitter
end
The accused sculler in speaking Of the
affair yesterday said: Certain people
in the Urion Club want to damage my
amateur status SO that the Henley stew
ards will refuse my entry next year.
It is perhaps not known on this side of
the water that the Henley people held up
my entry this year. Well. they did for
a while. on account OF the fact that l was
sent across by subscription. But when
they understood the case more thorough
ly they removed the embargo and was
allowed to start. You might think that
the Englishmen are ignorant of the real
state of affairs in the rowing world here.
This Is a mistake, for the least little
squabble that occurs on this side of the
pond finds its way over there in quick
time.
The National Association OF Amateur
Oarsmen knew how the money was col
lected. and they indorsed my Henley en-
try blank. The Henley people knew how
was sent over, yet neither association
has yet said l am anything but an anna
teur. But il remains for a few evil
minded persons in the Union Boat Club
70 try and make q mountain out of a
molehill. and through the episode en-
deavor to harm my reputation. Since
my return | have received hundreds of
congratulatory epistles. but against that
have been bounded by numerous filthy
communications. What have | done? |
am no criminal. All l have been guilty
of was to take my boat 1900 miles and
win two heats of the greatest sculling
race on earth | represented the Union
Boat Club and America and was beaten
by a better man and only after | gave
out the best and last stroke within my
power But | am going 10 Henley again
as sure as the sun shines"
Titus is entered in the national re-
gatta by the Union Boat Club and de-
clared he would wear that clubs cOlors
in the singles. His hands are in bad
shape. but he thinks they will be all
right next week.
NJ. A. Cornell, president of the Union
Boat Club. said in reference to the pro-
posed charges: THE trouble with Titus
is that he talks too much. He may have
enemies in the club but ne should re-
member that he has friends also. So far
/ have heard nothing about any charges
of professionalism nor do | think there
will be any. He is life member of our
club and II the facts were known has
been treated well by the Union
