ident Grover Cleveland, marched to

Mrs. Patton were in the audience.
Among other things DR.. Patton
said:
Christian University Good Place
Sooner or later a man must be
flee; sooner or later he takes charge
of his own conscience, and a uni
yersity is one Of the. best training
places for this. / say this because
an impression abounds that a uni
versity is place of terrible tempta-
ton, and mothers often debate the
question whether they should sacri-
fee intellect for morals. They think
| it is difficult for man to acquire an
education except at great risk, ana
men speak about the temptations OF
college life as if there We're no temp
tations in business, as IL the banker
and broker lived in holier lands, as II

place where a man may be trusted to
work out the best in him so well as
in a Christian university. II you

Why Less Enter Ministry.
Speaking of the falling off Of can.
didates for the ministry among col
lege graduates, President Patton said
Some people complain that so few
men are now entering the ministry,
and give every reason for this but the
true one. The reason Is simply this:
We are living in an age Of intellectual
trsnsition and burning unrest, and
therefore ] have respect for the man
who doubts, who overcomes his doubts
and gathers strength"

Rev. G. H. Brent Has No Definite
Plans For the Work Ahead.

New York, Jan. 2O.-The Rev. Charles

and assigned to the missionary diocese
of the Philippines, recently addressed
the congregation at st. Bartholomew's
Up. Ed church. He said he had accept
ed the mission without going into the
question of financial means but trust
ing to the generosity of the church to
furnish the necessary equipment
People ask me- said he, What are
you going to do out there?' There are
too many prophesying. They are not

plans I would stultify myself if
made prom ises of bringing about great
results, for I do not know until 1 get

MOURNING NEARLY OVER.
English Court Will Soon Assume a
Brighter Aspect.

New York, Jan. 20.-In the course of a
few days the years mourning OF the
royal family for the late queen will be
over, and the court will resume its
brighter aspect, cables the Tribune's
London representa- West End is
full of preparations for the new order
of things, and it Is clear from many
indications that their majesties desire
the London season to be as cheerful as
the conditions will permit. Many fam
lilies are in mourning because of losses
in South Africa, and for various rea-
sons it is presumed that Queen Alex
andra, Princess Christian and Princess
Henry of Battenberg will continue their
prediction for more neutral tones in
ordinary wear; but the aspect of society
will be gayer than for many a year,
and intimations are already made to
show that the king intends to make
frequent appearances in public places
of amusement during the coming
months.
The Victoria memorial fund is still
well below 920o,000. and is increasing
very slowly toward the required $780,
600. The reason for this state of affairs
is supposed to be that people living out
of London have a strong objection to
subscribe for the erection of the me-
mortal in the metropolis. In all prob
ability the precedent which was set in
the case of the memorial to the prince
consort will be followed, and parlia-
ment will be asked to vote the neces-
sary funds.
