Laying off 6rakemen From EVs"'
Crew Makes Trouble.


philadelphia, July 20.-In carrying
out its policy of retrenchment the
pennsylvania Railroad company is
brougbt face to face with threatened
strike that might tie up every freight
train on the entire system from New
York to Pittsburg.
Following closely upon the cutting
down of its clerical force, orders were
issued on Monday laying OFF one brake
man from every freight crew OF the
divisions comprising the main line. Al
together upward of 1000 men are di-
rectlv affected by the order
The trainmen located at Altoona, the
western end of the middle division,
struck on receipt of the order and re-
fused to take out their trains from Al
toona to Harrisburg. Twenty crews
from Harrisburg were telegraphed for
to take the places Of the strikers and
we're "dead-headed" on a fast train to
Altoona. On the New York division
the receipt Of the order was met with
a notice from the Brotherhood of
Trainmen that unless the men laid on
we're all put back to work in one
weeks time the entire division would
go out on strike.

/ " as we look at such conquest ana
compare il with the work that he ae-

all this future conquest Of the world'
but as man he never went away from
the Palestine hills. He grew up IN
Nazareth. He journeyed from Naza-
reth few times TO Jerusalem. Ihere
at the Davidic capital he was at last
led as a guilty criminal out to the
Calvary heights to ANONYMOUSLY die.
To his followers he left the stupendous
task of evangelizing the world, prom
ising that he would be with them to the
end and that through his power they
should be able to win more souls than
he had done.
But though we have been praising
mans greater works" we would have
YOU bear well in mind this one tremen-
dous fact. No work Of man is truly
greater than Christs work. because all
Of mans greater works are the out

verse in which my text is found you
will find the whole trend Of the thought
in the one word because He shall
do greater works than these because

is in God and God is in us is the rea-
son man is able TO accomplish greater
works than did Christ.

man in his own strength is able to do |
anything apart from God. This idea /

SCHEDULE FOR RURAL CARRIERS
Under New Act Two-Thirds of Force
Receives Increase of $100.

Washington. July 19.-The new sal
ary schedule for rural mail carriers has
been completed The new schedule ap-
plies from July l. The last congress
raised the maximum salary from $500
to $72O a year. 1t was found that the
maximum route was "a miles long, and
to carriers on routes of this length,
numbering about $1,000, the miximum
salary will be paid. The salaries of car
riers on routes shorter than the maxi
mum was fixed by deducting S1S for
each mile less than "a. The net re-
suit has been that slightly over two
thirds of the whole force of 24,500
rural mail carriers have received in
creases of 500 a year in their salaries.
The remaining carriers have received
increases OF less than this amount.

h@came TO earth and was born in the
manger and lived in Nazareth, he liter
ally became the 'despised and the re-
jected of men," After he had lived
and suffered, preached and worked on
and on until the day when he was
crucified, the converts he had won
were only a little handful of followers
at the foot of his cross. If l should
lake you to a country pastor and say,
'Rev. Mr.. So-and-sO, how large is your
churchy he would say: "Oh, very
small We have only siXscore mem
bers all told. But we are part of the
great Presbyterian church, with its
hundreds of thousands and millions of
members. Therefore we are proud
to belong to the great body of this
church militant" But Jesus when he
died did not have any great church.
He was only the humble Naza-
rene with one hundred and twenty
disciples all told in Jerusalem. From
worldly standpoint Christ's life
seemed to be an abject failure. DO
you wonder that Christ said to his
disciples in the words of my text, He
that belieyeth on me, the works that
do shall he do also. and greater works
than these shall he do?" How has the
promise been fulfilled in the great
preachers and organizers of the Chris
tian church! Inspired by his life and
teaching, men have arisen whose
