One of the authorities replied,
thanking him, adding, however, that

to his voice in favor of his supper,
answered, Gas the supper is only
offered as a reward to those who
have the patience to hear me sing

come to dinner with me tomorrow
at noon, assuring you that I will
not sing"

SENTIMENT AND SENSE

At a Methodist conference in New
York yesterday. Bishop Fowler gave a
class, examined for admission to the
ministry, some homely, but wholesome,
advice. III" said he. you should ask
me to decide between the man with no
religion and commonsense, and a man
with religion and no commonsense, l
SHOULD take the man with common
sense" The Bishop puts the case
strongly, since such men as he paints
do not exist. There can be no re-
ligion without a certain order of in
telligence, and, conversely, there usual
ly goes with intelligence a certain kind
of religion, whether this bears the
brand of orthodox or not
But the Bishops meaning is clear;
he was aiming at that class OF minis
ters who attempt 10 make up for their
lack of education, culture and horse
sense by an enthusiasm and sancti-
moniOusness which is unreal II is a
too common thought that intelligence
has nothing to do with worship or
goodness, but that religion is entirely
IA matter of emotion. This is like gem
erating great deal of steam without
keeping it under control Religion is
an emotion. but our emotions are, or
should be, under the dominion of the
mind, which gives them force and di-
rectiOn.
The Bishop continues There is too
mudh goody-goody principle and Hear,
Lord idea" Here is an expression Of
many of the objections against a GER
tain order of religious worship. And
this. too, explains why many neglect
to attend divine service. OF course, at
times IL is a mere excuse, but there is
no reason why the excuse should not
be eliminated. There must always be
allowances made for human weakness.
even in THE pulpit, but there is too
great a tendency on the part of the
clergy to Withdraw from active partici-
patton in the cares and concerns OF
life, and thus to lose the practical
point of view OF laymen. There is mo-
antagonism between true sentiment
and good sense

LETTERS FROM The PEOPLE
Word IL Defense Of WIndIe

To the Editor Of the Evening Journal.
Sir. Since reading of the sad death
of Howard Windle, ! feel it my duty
30 write a line in his defense. and let
the people of Wilmington know him
as | did.
l had known him from bOyhooi, and
for several years. prior to THE time
that he and ! both sold our farms on
account of ill-health, we lived in sight
of each other, and often met. / never
saw him when / had any reason to
think that he had been drinking at
all. He was a man CT few words, and
had a kind heart and a willing hand
always ready to help anyone, aud was
anything else than a quarrelsome
man, and If The did strike at Wright
he must have been tried beyond endur-
ance. Being in feeble health and
stranger, doubtless Mr.. Windle went
In and sat down on the bale of hay,
simply to rest. | never drank a glass
of liQuor in my life, yet, ON account of
heart trouble, have often been Obliged
to stop and rest while attending to
business in this city, sometimes for
four hours at a time, until / could
walk the streets without staggering.
knowing that if / ventured out would
be pronounced drunk, and then kind
friends have offered to send a man
home with me- What a difference be-
tween being with friends and in the
hands of cruel police officers?
Little did l think, when Mr. Windle
and used to work together in the sick
rooms of our neighbors, that he would
lay. bleeding and dying within
four squares OF my door
without even pillow under
his poor. broken head, or n kind
hand to do for him as he was so will
ing to do for others. It is not only
dlsgraceful but it is criminal neglect
and the penalty should be such as
would make It a lesson never to be
forgotten. p. Talley

The Crux of ComposliIon
the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The Records London special CORE
spOndent, mentioning that the corO-
nation sermon will be preached by the
Bishop of LondOn-limited to ten
minutes" remarks:
"One wonders, not in idle curiosity.
what can be put into a ten-minutes
discourse, delivered upon so great an
occasion, that will be worth the
preachers efforts and the listeners s
attention and memory.
This is perhaps a natural wonder,
vet, in point of fact, ten minutes is a
good while for one who is master Of
his subject. AT a public meeting in
New York City many years ago we
remember, Parke Goodwin made a pithy
speech. which he prefaced by referring
to famous clergyman of the city,
then no more. who used to say: Il
have found by experience that can
tell about all / know on any subject
In ten minutes" We all remember
the anecdote of the preacher who
apolOgized TO his hearers for the length
Of his sermon by saying that he had
not had time 10 make it shorter. For
our part, INSTEAD of sharing our cor
respondents wonder, we are disposed
TO wonder, not what can be put into
a ten-minute discourse" on 80 great
an occasion" but rather how, between
now and the day of coronation, the
preacher can find time to write IT,
Parvum in multo is easily done. ANY
writer can do it, Multum in parvo in
a feat of intellect. IL takes a journal

What do l care for daffodils,
And morning glories, too,
The sprouting green potato plants
Are gladstone to my view.
! feel no thrills at seeing how
The crocus buds and blows;
Give me the joyous garden where
The early onion grows.
Give me the ruddy radish; let.
Me know that it is mine.
And you may have the pleasure of
The bug collecting vine.
Who cares for thoughtful pansies,
which
Among the grasses sigh?
The rhubarb plant is ribald with
A prophecy of pie
Why linger by the lilac bush,
Or sniH the violet?
The fair tomato plant is up.
And ready to be set.
Spring has her blossoms-some rt
fair.
And some are fairer still,
And fairest is the bean bloom, which
Is flashing on the hill.
