THE DOxOLOGY.
University OF Chicago Authorities
Nail a Canard.

Chicago, Dec. lathe statement
that the doxology had been discarded
at the University Of Chicago and that
instead of "Old Hundred" alma
Mater" would be sung at the close of
the junior college chapel service was
a mistake. The doxology never was
sung at the close of the service. but
at the beginning, where 1t continues
to be sung. The "Alma Mater"
which has been substituted for a con-
Guiding hymn. has itself the charac-
teristics OF hymn, dignity and ele-
walton OF sentiment. But it does not
displace the doxology OF impair the
religious tone of the exercise.

On a busy corner In the still buster
city of Chicago where thousands of
people-Chicago people, with an eye
and thought for naught but their own
affairs, pass and repass every day,
stands a building, not an imposing,
but a substantial, roomy edifce, the
name of which is perhaps more widely
known in all quarters of the globe
than that of any other structure in
the great city.
1t is the Vitae-Ore Building, the
building from which the remedy
which gives it is name is offered &c
the public, the remedy-the natural
mineral Ore-which has astounded
the people of. the continent by it's
cures and brought happiness, com
fort, peace and contentment to thous-
ands of homes which had been torn
and ravished by the scourges of sick
ness and disease. 1t was built by,
with and for Vitae-Ore. Each brick
and stone represents a satisfied GUS
toner; each tile in the floors and
stairway a patient cured, who salts
fed, paid his money for the treat
ment. From a humble beginning in
a room in a cottage occupied by Mr.
Theo. Noel, its ~discoverer, the Vitae
Ore enterprise has grown to such pro-
portions as to occupy a building 50x
IT'S feet, three floors high, a total
floor space of 1880 feet, used sole
ly, entirely and exclusively in plac-
ing this remedy before the public,
not counting the buildings owned
and occupied by the Tbeo. Noel Co.,
proprietors of the discovery, in To-
ronto, Ont, and London, Eng, for
the carrying on of the Vitae-Or en-
terprise in Canada and Great Bri-
tain.
All this is a standing monument to
the wonderful merit of this still more
wonderful remedy, which is today Of
fered to the readers of this paper in
the magnificent, full-page announce
ment which readers will find upon
the back cover of this issue, a monu-
ment that testifes in a stronger Ian
guage than anything that could be
said with ink and white paper. The
Theo. Noel Company offers a pack
age on thirty days trial, so that all
who suffer, all who need it, may test
it without risk or possibility of loss.
1t cures, the patient is satisfied and
pays for it, and the Vitae-Ore enter
prise grows and grows and spreads
its leaves like a green bay tree.

NOTES ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR JUNE S.
Christ's Trial Before PLATE.
MARK Is: LID

23:4)
After Jesus had instituted the Last
Supper, and had uttered those won
derful discourses to His disciples,
which are given in the Fourth Cos
pei and must be ever considered
among the choicest heritages of the
Christian Church, events moved
swiftly and sadly to their awful cul-
mination on Calvary.
Leaving the upper room where he
had eaten the Passover. with His dis
ciples, Jesus passed out with them
to the Mount of Olives. Then tax
ing Peter, James and John, He en-
tered into the Garden of Gethsemane,
where he endured that untold agony
which forced from Him great drops
of bloody sweat. His betrayal and ar
rest quickly followed, and He was
hurried before the Jewish authori-
ties, ostensibly for trial, but in real
ity for condemnation.
Jesus Before the Jewish Rulers
Jesus was taken first before Annas,
the father-in-law cf Caiphas, who
was the actual high priest. After a
brief hearing before Annas, Jesus
was taken before Caiphas, where
false witnesses gave their discordant
testimony against Him, speaking in
conformity with the wishes of the
rulers and chief priests, but in utter
disregard of the truth.
After this mockery of a trial, which
was conducted in defiance of all the
principal provisions of the Jewish
law, respecting the rights of an ac-
cused person, and the proper form of
procedure, the court declared Jesus
worthy of death. But though this
was their decision, they we're utterly
powerless to carry out the sentence
they had pronounced, for the power
of life and death rested with the Ro-
man courts alone. So, soon after
~day-break, Jesus was brought before
PLATE, the Roman governor.
A Character Sketch of Plate
The name of Plate will ever be CON
nected with the trial and death of
Jesus Christ. Some interesting facts
concerning him are given by DIR.
MacLear in the Cambridge Common
tary for Schools and Colleges. His
Office, we are told, was that of pro-
curator under the governor (proprae-
tor) of Syria, but within his own
province he had the power of a le-
gatus. His headquarters we're in
Caeserea, he had assessors to assist
him in council, he wore the military
dress, was attended by a cohort, as a
body-guard, and at the great festi-
walls came up to Jerusalem to keep
order. When presiding as Judge, he
would sit on a Rema or portable tri-
bunal erected on a tesselated pave
ment, called in Hebrew Gabbatha.
In character Plate "was not in
sensible to the claims of mercy and
justice, but he was weak and vacilla-
ting, and incapable of compromising
his own safety in obedience to the
dictates of his conscience. As a
governor he had shown himself cruel
and INSCRIPTIONS, and cared little
for the religious susceptibilities of a
people whom he despised and could
not understand"
A Fatal Decision.-The details of
the trial before Pilot are familiar to
us all. Though Plate repeatedly
declared Jesus to be innocent of any
wrong-doing, yet he delivered him
over to be crucifed, and in so doing
he has handed down his name to
perpetual ignominy.

Retaining the Deserts.

Luther Burbank Of California, who
has come to be known as the Wizard
of Horticulture, by reason of his mar
velous accomplishments in the develop
ment of fruits and flowers, has in the
spineless cactus attained what he con-
siders the greatest of his work in the
interests of scientific horticulture, even
with the degree of perfection he has
attained at present.
In response to an inquiry he said:
"It means the reclamation of the des-
erts. l am not through with it yet.
shall try to develop a harder plant,
one that will have still more nutrious
matter. Now that l have removed the
spines and the spicules, cattle and
horses can eat it, and as it contains
about half as much nutrition as alfalfa
and more than beets, it is a good stock
feed. What is more, it will be at its
best when the desert is denuded of
other vegetation. It will thrive best
in the dryest weather, but if l can de-
velop the size of the leaf and make it
more nutritious, then l am sure that it
will lead to the reclamation of all the
arid wastes"
The cactus which Mr.. Burbank has
developed is smoth and without the
least sign of spines. The leaves can be
rubbed over the face and the hands
without the slightest irritating sensa-
ton.
Mr.. Burbank says that he will leave
the distribution of the plant to the
hands of others and that he will turn
to experimental work.
Those who are at all familiar with
the lands where the cactus grows know
that, guarded as the plant is m its
native state, the cattle will frequently
brave its thorns and come away with
their mouths covered with blood and
their tongues bleeding from contact
with the spines. If the spineless cac-
tus developed by Mr.. Burbank proves
as hardy as the native plant it will fur
nish safe and nutritious feed for
stock.-News.

The Christmas cantata given BY the
M. E. Sunday School On Friday night,
was a very pleasing entertainment.
Miss Christmas Day was impersonated
by Mrs. Seaton, in her usual happy
manner, and her sweet voice added
much to the cantata. The Fairies We'll
come Song to Miss Christmas Day,
given by seven little girls was very
pretty. The chorus by the jolly Boys,
the solos by children, and the imperson-
alton Of Father Time and Dawn, the
two choruses by the Shepherds Daugh-
ters, and the general choruses, all
made up very fine program. Mrs.
Seaton, Miss Cradle and Miss Shoup
directed the cantata and to them is due
the great success Of the entertainment.
A Christmas tree and the treat for the
Sunday School followed the program.

WAS THE HORSE
POISONED?
l. Lungs Racing Mare Dies Under
Suspicious Circumstances.

Last Saturday a fine mare valued at
$500 belonging to L. Lung, of this place
died and it is believed the horse was
poisoned. Delta citizens are very much
wrought up over the affair and an effort
will be made to discover who did the
poisoning as soon as the food in the
stomach of the horse is analysed and
found to contain poison.
A race had been arranged between
Joe Harrington's horse and horse be-
longing to the Chinaman, by the name
of "Uncle Sam" On Friday night
before the race was to be run he was
advised to hide his horse as it was be-
lieved an effort would be made to dope"
the animal Acting on this advice he
hid the horse away early Friday night,
but left the mare in the stable, Just
back of his laundry. It is thought that
the criminal who was to do the job
found only the mare in the stable and
thought it was the horse which was to
participate in the race next day and
consequently "doped" or poisoned the
wrong animal.
L. Lung says that he knew as soon
as he went to the stable next morning
that the horse had been poisoned or
given something during the night as
the bucket which the horse was usually
fed in had been removed. The animal
also showed signs of poisoning, but did
not seem to be dangerously sick until
later in the day, when everything possi-
bic was done to save the animal but it
died about 10 O'Clock Saturday night.
DR.. Houts took the stomach from the
1saAena1n ~ 0nnaay and i Was sent
to Denver to be analysed so as to
positively ascertain the cause of death.
There was very little money on the
rsce, as near as can be learned, except
fifty dollars put up by L. Lung and
Joe Harrington, the owners of the
horses. 1t is claimed by some however
that there was another interested in the
affair, provided the Harrington horse
won the race and strong suspicious are
had in that direction.
If it can be learned what kind of poi
son was given there will be chance to
find out where the drug was procured
and who bought it.
The Chinaman's horse won the race
with so much ease the following day
that it is not believed that the race
could have ever been matched on the
square and if the horse is found to
have been poisoned arrests are likely to
follow.
