AT THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY

Rev. VIM. c. Lindsay. Of Biloxi,
Miss, filled the Presbyterian pulpit
most acceptably Sunday morning and
night
In mis- morning discourse he took
for his text, 81 am the Bread Of Life, "
John 81, and from these words
preached a really excellent sermon.
His language was forceful and his
comparisons striking. He is evident
ly a believer more in deeds than
creeds, in acts rather than words.
There being a scarcity of teachers
in the Sunday school DR.. Lindsay
took a class of little boys and inter.
ested them greatly.
He will fill the pulpit again next
Sunday morning and evening.
Baptist
Rev. L. B. Warren preached morn
ing and evening to good cOngrega-
tions. At the latter service the
church was comfortably full to the
door. Mr.. Warren has a most pleas
ing manner of delivery, his voice is
strong, enunciation perfect, and his
sermons bristle with telling points.
He realizes the value of illustration
and good stories abound in his ser
mons. His style runs to concentra-
tion of Characterization in paryO-
and gems of purest ray frequently
flash out in his discourses. He has
magnetism, but something more and
better-brains
Christian
Evangelist Collins preached to fair
houses at the Christian church morn
ing and evening, while Mrs. Collins
preached in the afternoon. These
evangelists will continue their SER
vices through the week.

and If possible will bring the new
Americas cup challenger to sail on the

the challenger. II that is impractical

of the challenger through the canals
does not appear SO great as the Chicago
committee fears. The pontoons on

lean Peace society respectfully petition
congress to declare by resolve that the
United States will grant independence
to the Filipnos as soon AS they shall
establish and prov" their ability to
maintain stable civil government.
I'VE believe that such II declaration.
similar to that made for cuba Just
prior to the Spanish war would meet
the approval of the great mi, jority of
the American people. would prove to
the world the unSeliish purposes of our
country. would r"stOr" peace to the
Philippines ut al early day and thus
prevent the further sacrifice OF life
and property in what seems likely m
der existing conditions to he an Indeli,
nitrly protrartpd and bitter cnuliict.'
The petition is signed on behalf Of
