Prayer and Promise.

This psalm Of Moses, supposed
to have been written concerning
the awful consumption of human
life during the forty-years' jour
ney in the wilderness closes with
an inspired prayer as a compen-
sation for all this affiiction. He
pleads that for every day of sor-
row, and every pang of grief
there may be a corresponding
and abundant recompense. And
so it will be for us all if we walk
in patience and hope. We have
only to take Gods way. We have
only to accept his Affections as
needful for our good. We need
only to trust in his fatherhood
and proyideutial goodness, and all
will be we'll. The Red Seas will
open. The bitter waters will
grow sweet. The black cloud
win break in blessing on our
heads.

Character and Environment.

One of the most popular falla.
cies of our day is that character is
the product of environment; that
If you put people into the right
surroundings, they will be right
eous.
The entire drift of the New
Testament is against this theory.
Its teaching is that the right soul
does far more to exchange exter-
nal conditions than the right ex-
ternal conditions do to change
the soul.
No sensible man overlooks the
influence of circumstances upon
character, bnt he sees that, how
ever influential they may be, they
are not finally determinative. 1t
is upon that fact that the Chris
tian theory of how human life and
society are to be purified and en-
nobled rests. Christianity makes
its primary appeal to the human
conscience; it brings a message to
the intelligent personality; it
aims to reconstruct life and
society and institution by trans
forming the personal, conscious
life of the individual. Just in
proportion as it does this it sue
ceeds, and just in proportion as
it leaves the citadel of the human
personality defiant to divine inhu-
ence, it fails.
Let us do everything that we
can toward ameliorating the ex-
ternal conditions of human life,
but the moment the Church sub
stitutes service to the external re-
quirement of man for her dis
tinctively spiritual ministry she
misses the essential feature of
her vocation; she fails to avail her
self of her principal resource.
Not only is God a spirit, man
is spirit. Not only must they
who worship God worship Him
in spirit and truth, but they who
serve man must serve him in
spirit and in truth. THE Watch
man.

Our Population S4,2SS,O6S.

The Census Bureau has just is
sued a report announcing that
the population of the entire Uni
ted States, including all outlying
possessions, was S4, 233, ,O69 in the
census year 1900. This is item
lied as follows:
Continental United States, or
United States proper, 1894, ,575
heretofore announced); Philip
pines, 6, 961, 339 being the esti-
mate of the statistician to the
Philippine Commission; Porto
Rico, 953, ,243; Hawaii, 154,001;
Alaska, SO, 500; Guam 5000; Amer
ican Samoa, 6,100; persons in the
military and naval service Of the
United States outside of the ter
ritory of the United States pro-
per, 81, 219.
These figures are based on the
enumeration of June 1, 1900.
The report says: "The total pop
ulation of the United States at
the close Of the nineteenth cen
tury was but 81 and a quarter
million. AS the population of the
United States at the beginning
of the century was about five and
third million, the nation has
grown nearly sixteen-fold in one
hundred years.
'There are but three countries
which now have a greater popula
tion than the United States, viz.
China, the British Empire and
the Russian Empire. China and
the British Empire have each Of
them probably between 350,0O0,-
600 and 4O0,OOO,OOO or together
nearly one-half Of the total popu-
lation of the earth. The Russian
empire with about 131, 100000
people, has more than half as
many again as the United States.
France, including its dependen-
cies, is the fourth country of the
world in order of population and
has about eighty-three and two
third million, or almost the same
number as in the United States. -

SITE FOR THE
MEMORIAL.
Where the Peoples Monument to Vim.
Mckinley Will Rise.
BEAUTIFUL WESTLAWN
AT CANTON, OHIO.
Natural Mound upon which the Memorial will
be Erected. Scenes Of To-day.

Canton, Ohio, Jan. 13.-The
mound where the body of William
Mckinley will eventually lie and
above which will be reared the
memorial of the people of the
United States, is in the farthest
section of Westlawn Cemetery.
Without question it is the most
beautiful spot there. Senator
Charles w. Fairbanks, of Indiana,
one of the trustees of the McKin-
ley National Memorial Associa-
tion, which is raising the funds
for the memorial tomb, said,
when he first beheld it that it was
"the finest spot out of doors in all
the world" The mound rises in
gentle slope about seventy-five
feet from the little stream that
lies at it's feet and curves in a
similar graceful sweep to the
east. A carriage road lies at it's
base at the edge of the water and
another one mounts the hill and
circles it at the back. 1t is pur-
posed to nse about five acres of
the mound-its very best part, in
fact-which will give ample room
for the stately tomb that will be
erected and for the spread of
greensward to relieve and soften
it.
Lying there William Mckinley
can look with a spiritual eye upon
the town of Canton whose chief
glory he was; he can see from
the eyrie of his monument the
home where he was so happy and
within whose stricken wall rests
his devoted widow. And as he
turns his gaze over the cemetery
it will light on the graceful little
marble tigure-a rosy boy with a
basket of fowers-that keeps
watch and ward over the tiny
graves of his two children at its
feet. There is long stretch OF
years between those little mounds
and the great one that looks down
upon them, but in all the time
that elapsed from the day that he
first turned and left his babies in
their graves to the glad one wher
he lay in the same cemetery be
side them, William Mckinley
heart was ever aching for those
little girls. 1t was the creates
sorrow that ever entered into his
life, and no glory that ever came
thereafter lulled it into sleep. L
is only another example of how
destiny works for him after deatl
as it did in life, that their graves
are to lie there hereafter in the
protection of his mighty tomb
whose shadow will cast benedic
ton upon them.
Back of these pathetic little
graves lie those of his father anC
mother and sister. Between
them-a link in death as in life
William Mckinley would have re
posed himself had not the love
and the honor of the nation willed
otherwise. Only simple head
stones rise above them, charac
teristlc in this very simplicity Of
the strong, unpretentious ma
lures that lie beneath them.
