New Theory OF Evolution.

From the ST. Louis Post Dispatch.
Columbia, MO.-DoctOr w. r.
Moore, dean emeritus Of the Mis-.
souri, Bible College at Columbia,
has just completed the manuscript
Of "a book which will cause a
sensation among theologians and
scientists.
Doctor Moore is n Theistic
evOlutionist, though his new defini.
tiOn of evolution will be quite
satisfactory even to conservatives.
He traces man in his origin, his.
tory and destiny, and in the con.
cludihg chapter of the book,
entitled "Death and the Other
Side," he attempts to show the
meaning of the numerous worlds
which new roll IN space without
inhabitants.
Doctor Moore's theory is, in
brief, that man will go on progress.
ing through the cycles ofeternity,
and that when he assumes his
spiritual body at the resurrection
he then will be prepared to inhabi
some ofthe planets or stars which
are now uninhabited.
He concludes that the inflnitude
OF space and the almost infinitude
Of worlds become ineligible from
bis point Of view. He believes
that the spiritual man viii be the
inhabitant Of oil these worlds and
that, as emigration from this earth
Is the future evolutionary process
