Rev. Mir Perry Preached a Most Inter-

 At St. Paups yesterday morning Rev. Mir. Perry preached a most interesting and instructive sermon on the subject, Gods Judgment He drew a compar- ison between the unerring Judgment of the Divine in comparison with the weakness and fallacy of human judg- ment. The speaker spoke about the un- fair condemnation of Dreyfus and re- ferred to similar cases in which hu- man Judgment had been at fault. He then said that God made no mistakes, and that he alone was Justice. He spoke about Christ being Judged by Pontius Pilot. and said that the judge in that case was the one who was be- ing judged
 Continuing his remarks the preacher said that the only true happiness in life was gained from a clear conscience. The true man is he who goes through life Fearless of evil--the man who knows evil and shuns 1t He it is who leads the true Christian life"

New Haven Theater.

Even Robert Pinkerton, the head of the greatest detective agency in the world. can learn a few points by seeing how the Russell Brothers, in "The Fe- male Detectives" run down desper- ate band of criminals after the police have utterly failed. That is why de- tectives iii all parts of the country have been to see this marvellous melo- drafa. The New Haven theated is the place to see the greatest popular priced attraction of the season on Monday. The Albany Journal, speaking of the production, says:
 When the curtain rose in the Elm pire last evening, the Russell Brothers were revealed iii the central police sta tion as trusted agents of Perry Mor- gan, captain of police, instructed with the difficult task of ferreting out a dark secret, which clouded the life of his rich sweet heart, Fannie Adams, With what zest they undertook the part, how they deceived everybody but the audience with rollicking brogue and side-splitting pranks, one must see to enjoy, and those who saw laughed until their sides ached.
 The play revolved around the weak minded grandfather with lots of money, good and a bad girl for his granddaughter and a clever little blos- som of granddaughter, Dot" who knew but one friend, Captain Morgan, in love with her half sister, Fan" Fannie Adams through his knowledge of her past, and schemed to control her grandfather's money, but was foiled at last by Morgan and his irresistible aids, the two make-believe female detectives. The scene shifted from the Tenderloin to the popular roof garden, million aires home, and wound up at the Wall dorf Astoria, where the villain met his due; Fannie died by her own hand, and Dot" won the hand of the man she had. always loved. sDawkins," as the vdl- lain, invoked the heartiest misses, and Blanche Laighton, as Fannie Adams" 1 brought out as hearty applause. Charle H. Phillips, as "Bill Bailey" the coon gambler, filled the part with credit, as did Margaret M. Lewis, as Hannah Eliza Jane," BilPs consort Annie Con- roy Russell as Jess Adams. the good sister, is also deserving of mention, Grandpa Pratt, with the little weak nesses of youth clinging to his old age, and giving him many a painful hour next morning, added to the gayety Of the evening, and kept the audience amused when the Clancy Brothers were not keeping it laughing.

FAR BEST FOR THE RACE.
THE IMPORTANCE OF TEMPER
 AN0E AND TOTAL ABSTINENCE.

Powerful Sermon by Rev. pr. Brown at
 the First Presbyterian Church.
 Bishop Potter and the Subway Saloon
 Ineident-Germany and Beer-HeaIth
 as n Factor. ~
 At the First Presbyterian church yesterday morning the pastor, Rev. MT. Brown, preached temperance sermon of rare power from the text. 'Wine is a mocker; strong drink is raging" this being the annual temperance sermon in accordance with the custom on this subject of the Presbyterian denomina- tion. Dr. Brown spoke of the impor- tance and advantages to the race of temperance. sociologically and hygien- ically, and taking the ground that the safe rule on the subject was total ab- stinence. even if only the Christian ex- ample to others was to be considered. Concerning Bishop Potter and the sub way saloon incident, Dr. Brown, while according to Bishop Potter high honor for his noble life and work, and ex- pressing the view that Bishop Potter's action concerning the subway saloon was based on high and unimpeachably sincere motives. yet the good bishop had made a mistake in the position he took in the case, that his action was an error in judgment by a good, sim cere and just man, who had the good Of humanity at heart. pr. Brown cited Germany as case in point. This great, grand nation, so prominent and dis tinguished for it's scholars, for it's ad- vaneed position in the arts and sciences and in culture was learning the les son that race deterioration resulted from over-indulgence in intoxicating beverages, as shown by the alarming number of men found unfit flor military service owing to this cause. The ta- bles of mortality generally the world over gave convincing, overwhelming evidence of the potency of the use of alcoholic beverages in undermining the general health and predisposing to at tacks to disease, and not only physical but also mental diseases. Wine was a mocker, strong drink was raging. There was safety in total abstinence. The consumption of alcoholic beverages is enormous all over the world, and in the United States the revenue from the production and inportations in this line reach to a vast sum. His final ap- peal was to the church to take the high stand that Paul advised, when he counselled abstinence, if only for the example to others.
