Chicago, February s.--In this sermon the preacher shows that the pew is no Jess responsible for spiritual stagnation than the pulpit and that dumb pew makes a dead church, while live, cor dial, cooperating and Christ confessing pew makes an effective pulpit and a tri- umphant church. The text is John K, 1s. 'There was a division among them"
 One day Lepaux, the great French in- fdel, came to Napoleon. He said: Your majesty, I have evolved a new religion which I call Theophilanthropy know that 1t Is a better gospel than Christian sty. but the French people will not believe or accept 1t. What is the matter? What shall I do?' The great French emperor turned and smiled. Then he raised his arm and placed his hand kindly upon his friends shoulder as he answered: :"Le- paux, there Is one trouble about your new religion-you have no witnesses. Go and iopen a few blinded eyes. Unstop some deaf ears. Straighten some crooked limbs. Raise the dead. Be cruciied and iburied. Rise again from the grave. On the third day appear unto them who put you to death. Then the people will accept and believe in you as they believe in Je- gus Christ. Lepaux, 1t is by your witness that your new religion must win It's way Into the hearts of the people, not by your theories" Napoleon was right. The gos- pel of Jesus Christ is to be carried to the farthermost parts of the world by the power of gospel testimony, not by theo- ries, not by arguments, not by brilliant collection of metaphysical or polemica dissertations.
 An illustration of this statement is fur pished by the scene of my text. There was great excitement in the ecclesiastical world of Jerusalem. The Pharisees, the members of the sanhedrin and priests had conclusively settled 1t with themselves that Jesus Christ was fraud charla' 'tan and an absurd pretender. But one day there was brought into their presence seeing, man who had been born blind

Presbyterian church, a lecture on the above
subject was given by William Kennedy. In
spite of the fact that this was election
night the city hall was crowded to its

through the south, west and north of Ire

and historic charms of the districts through
which he passed. The lecture was copiously
illustrated with stereoptiCon views manipu-

the hands of VIII j. Stevens. Some of the
best of Ireland's national songs were sung
by the Misses Lovely and Mr.. Kennedy.

MORE TRACKS FOR TRAINS
Union Pacific to Increase Yardage at Its
Passenger Station.
NEW ROADS BRING NEW BUSINESS
Facilities Already Overtaxed Have
Prospect of Being Greatly En-
IarEed Within n Very
Short Time.

Union Pacific oficials are seriously con-
sidering the matter OF adding to the track
age facilities at the Union station. There
are at present more than sixty trains en-
tering and leaving the station every
~twenty-four hours and the eight tracks for
this service are scarcely able to handle any
large increase OF traffic.
With the coming of the Omaha-Bonesteel
train into the station after Saturday, two
more trains will be added to the list OF
those to be handled. The Wabash will add
two more soon, and then there is always
the likelihood that the Chicago Great
Western will be using the station and
bringing in from four to six more trains
daily. All Of this increase means an addi-
tional stress on the already well-used
tracks and 1t is felt by the officials in
charge that greater passenger trackage IA
~cilities should be added.
The expense and labor involved In the
change is not considerable when compared
with the returns. The fence to the south
of the present eight tracks can be moved
further southwark and enough space taken
from the freight trackage to add two tracks
without any serious h~indrance to the
freight facilities.

SUING FOR LIBEL.

Last summer Robert Emmett
Walker came here from Halls Sta
ton to see his wife, arriving. at her
home that night about 10 o'clock,
and dying suddenly about daylight
the next morning. There were
policies of $4,000 each IN the Roy
al Union, National Life and Fideli-
ty Mutual. The insurance compa-
MES, claiming that they thought
there was foul play, sent one OF
their detectives down here, and he
succeeded in getting the afidavits
necessary to have the body OF
Walker exhumed and an analysis
of his vital organs. The analysis
showed that there was nothing in
the stomach of Walker to indicate
foul play, and the coroner's jury
rendered sthe following verdict:
I'VE, the jury, find that the deceas-
ed came to his death from some
cause unknown to us, but we do not
find that he came to his death by
unlawful means"

nies interested filed a bill in the

that Boone Coulter, who issued the
policies, and Mrs. Maud L. Walker,
to whom the policies were payable.
