Some people think that when
they pay or ever promise to pay
subscription to a newspaper, they
are expected to help run it. They
want their names to appear in
every issue, and nothing good is to
be said of any one they don't like;
and if their friends do any thing
wrong, even though it be the talk
of the town, the newspaper must
not mention it. In fact, they think
$1.00 invested in subscription
should make him a large stock hold

managers of the concern.

1870 lAKS, flowers, pictures and rhetorical flights do not
constitute a sermon. The preacher should always make
a point that will not require a microscope to find, or a
haring label to identify o understand. A preacher
5@s1rS~-m~ should always aim to say something when he under
take to preach.
S Sermons ought to have clearly defined divisions.
Some people have horror of sermonic bones. They shy
at the firstly, secondly and thirdly They tell us they do not want
TO see the frame of the sermon. AS between A SKELETON AND A
BAG OF JELLY WITH THE BAG LEFT OFF, / PREFER THE
SKELETON.
l do not know of any valid reason why a preacher SHOULD AL
WAYS CHOOSE A TEXT. There are many themes for which it is
extremely difficult, if not impossible, to find a fitting passage to serve
as a text.
We hear much about Preaching for the times" The exact mean
Ing OF this phrase is not always clear. Practically, however, the message
for the man of the twentieth century is in most respects like that which
was brought to the man of the first century. Human nature remains
about the same in spite OF the many changes the centuries bring about.
The helpful message of to-day, as always, must be one which is distinct,
clear and full of hope,
Training in sermon writing and delivery is neglected in our theolog-
tca seminarns. am convinced that the attention given systematic
theology, church history and Old and New Testament exegess is dis
proportionady large compared to the training given to men to present
the results OF their study and prayer in such a way as to build up the
Kingdom of God.
The man who shuts himself up six days in the week with his books
and devotes himself to contemplation and hard thinking may produce
sermons admirable from the standpoint of scholarship, preparation and
wide reading, but such sermons will lack vitality. They will touch only
the intellectual side of life, and even there their value is questionable.
THE FORM OF THEOLOGY WHICH A IAN HOLD AND
DECLARES HAS LITTLE OR NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS
POPULARITY AS A PREACHER. There is a deal of nonsense
talked about THE HUNGERING OF THE MASSES FOR THE
GOSPEL" If any man knows of ANY SUCH SPECIFIC MASS
OF HUMANITY he will confer a favor upon a large number of preach
ers by pointing it out. Certainly Chicago does no abound with masses
of this character.

cotton, with its snowy fleece, converted into raiment for all the people
of the earth, mark this abundant, fruitful, wondrous land as the great
est among the manifestations of God.
Of the ooooooooo pounds of cotton-seed oil produced in this
country, from an average cotton crop, much goes abroad and returns as
olive oil, and some of fit becomes olive oil without foreign travel. Much
of this oil goes to the coast of Maine, whence, with young smelts and
bronzed tin boxes, it returns to our markets as French sardines. Nearly
onehalf masquerades as pure butter and fine leaf lard, and the balance
comes squarely before us as cottolene and cotosuet.
The effect of a pure vegetable fat of this type upon a nation using
a vast amount of lard and butter, as does the American nation, must
prove of great benefit to the health of the people at large. 1t does away
with much of the danger of tubercuous contamination from cows and
uichinous invasion from swine.

Let us see if the time be not ripe for a new declaration of Amer
lean independence. We ire building up colossal fortunes, granting I'm
limited power to corporate organization and consolidating and massing
together business interests as never before in the commercial history of
the world, but the people are losing control of their own government.
Its foundations are being Slapped and its integrity destroyed.
The gravest danger menacing republican institutions to-day is the
overbaancing control of city, state and national legislatures by the
wealth and power of public service corporations. The national govern,
ment, every state government, every city government has its problem to
solve-not at some other time, but now.

ercise of the same power by a foreign monarch.
The arbitrary control of the price of coal and iron and corn and
wheat and beef, whether by an extortionate transportation rate or by a
monster combination, is a more absolute tyranny of the American people
than quarering the army of King George upon the American colonists
without their consent.

SHERLOCK HOLMES II.
London Has Detective Who Traces
Burglars Thru Their Finger
Prints.

London, Nov. 16.-Four men have
been arrested in connection with the
stealing Of jewelry worth $4,000 from
the auction rooms of Knight, Frank
& Rualey in Conduit street month
ago. It was by clever scheme on
the part Of the famous detective, Chief
INSPECTOR Drew, that the men were
tracked down simultaneously and ar
rested in various parts Of the north OF
London. Traced by their finger points
the men were discovered two weeks
ago and without their knowing it.,
they had been Swallowed day and
night ever since.
Before making the arrests Inspector
Drew wanted If possible to locate the
missing jewels but failed. Then Drew
decided on a daring coup. Early in
the morning there might have been
seen walking toward the house of each
suspect milkman who wore the usual
glazed hat and carried the usual
money pouch and milk bucket with
cans around the side. His cry rang out
Justify as he came down the street.
When at the door Of the house he
knocked loudly The door was
opened, the milkman stepped inside
and the professional air at once left
him as he raised his hand above his
head. At this signal four men came
hurrying from hiding places near by.
All were detectives, the milkman dis
guise having been adopted for the pilr-
pose of securing admittance. To-
gether they mounted the stairs to the
bedroom Of the man they wanted and
in each case the man was found in
bed. The prisoners were quickly
bundled off to the nearest station.

IT IS NOT A LUXURY
Quartermaster General Humphrey Of
the Army Reports on Trans
port Service.
: Declares the Service Is Saving to
the Government and Quotes
Official Figures.

Washington, Nov. 16.-"It has been
\ thought proper, in an official report,
(. to refer to the army transport serv-
Ice as a most costly luxury" says
G. +. Humphrey, quartermaster gen.
eral of the army in his annual report
to the secretary of war, issued to-day.
As to Its costliness submit actual fig
ures and facts. do not know in what
respect the service can be looked upon as
q luxury, unless reference Is made to the
excellence of the enlisted mems accommo-
dations. If 1t be a luxury to furnish our
enlisted men with the class of accommo-
dations now provided in all the army
transports then / favor the continuance
OF that luxury
In my opinion, the transport service
needs no defense whatever. 1t Is un-
Questionably very valuable and econom-
ical military convenience.
The Transport Service.
The transport service for a year
saved s2,24S,439 as compared with
contract service. Interest and trans
port service for the year cost $685.
sos in the Philippine archipelago,
while the cost of transporting the
same number Of passengers and ami
mails, and the same amount OF freight
and mail, under the prevailing tariff
rates of the Philippine steamship COM
panies, would have been $1,O27,977.
buT1nS the year oA,OoV peSSCA5Cio
were carried by the transport service
between the United States, the Phil
ippines, Hawaiian islands and Alas
ka., Freight carried between the same
points amounted to 6S,221 tons.
Brought Home the Dead.
The remains of 329 officers, enlist
ed men and civilian employees were
brought home, and there were trans
ported between the states and the
Philippines 1861 pieces Of baggage,
531,571 pounds Of mail, $S,916,OOO In
money and six horses.
Recommendation is made that Ho-
.nolulu be declared a regular port OF
call for all transports going to and
returning from the Philippines. On
account of the inability of the depart
ment to realize anywhere near the
value Of transports no longer needed
for the service when offered for sale,
it has been determined to lay up the
spare ships in the harbors on the At
1antic coast and at San Francisco.
These ships will be kept in condition
for service on short notice in an emer-
gency.
Issues of the new uniform will here
after commence with organizations re-
turning from the islands, as after
service there the commands have
practically no articles of WOODEN uni
forms in their possession, and the
prospect Of three or four years serv-
Ice in the United States justifies their
re-equipment turnout.

REPORTS ON PARK
Government Advised to Secure Yosemite
Valley from California.

4, Washington, Nov. 16.-According to the
report of Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Gar
rard, acting superintendent of Yosemite
national park, $500 tourists were seen
there during the past season. He recon-
mends the acquisition Of the Yosemite
valley from California by the government,
and several improvements in the man
ageuent Of the park. He wants the SUI
perintendent appointed for three years.
and the park made United States court
district.
Game, he says, in the forest reserves
bordering the park should be preserved.
and the danger of forest fires minimized
by burning over each autumn. The gov
eminent should obtain possession of all
patented lands within the park and re-
serves, and the location of mines, water
power and claims should be forbidden.
