Morrill, in the Yosemite.

The current number of the Baptist Union,
published in Chicago by Rev. W. H. Geist-
welt, formerly of Minneapolis, contains an ar
ticle on The Yosemite" by Rev. G. l.. Nor
rill of the Chicago Avenue Baptist church.
The story of a drive through the valley con-
tains gems OF description Starting from
San Francisco by ferry, Oakland by rail, and
so on, the points Of interest through the val
ley are detailed in the characteristic flow of
beautiful thought with which the reverend
gentleman responds to the beauties ma
ture. The following paragraphs are repre-
sentative Of the fine points of the descriptive
art which marks the article:
There was a neat nonsectarian chapel in
the valley, to which visiting ministers were
invited, but did not go. This was the place
to worship God in temple not made with
hands Its masonry, mountains; pillars,
pines; roof, sky; floor, earth; music, chant
Of cascade and fugue of fall; lights, sun,
moon and stars; silence, the eternal's voice,
and the truest worshiper the soul that looks
up and feels that the Creator Of all this might
is his merciful Christ.
