even on the SABBATH, sIcd powerful
attractions for tae masses that the

BRING home bible truths to the
masses.
The Committee to run ths theatres
will be kncwr as the Scientific

posed to send duplicate pictures to

The United States government
has adopted an attitude similar to
that of England toward the new
Servian dynasty. 1t will be in 20
haste to recognize tie government
created by assassination Ia the alb
sence OF some exhibition Of dispo-
sition to punish the guilty. There
fore, Mr.. Jackson, who, besides be-
ing minister to Greece, is also
Urited States minister tc Servia,
will not present his credentials to
the government of King Peter at
present. In fact, these credentials
have not been prepared. He had
credentials to King Alexander
which he never presented and he
was actually on his way from Ath-
ems at Belgrade at the tine Of the
assassination of the king to when
he was about to present his papers.
1t happens that the trade between
the United States and Servia is
trifiing and the interests of the two
countries touch at few points, so
that there ia really little embarrass-
ment likely to follow the failure to
establish diplomatic relations.
