lions of Learning Were Attended
by Great Congregations and
Much Interest Was
Shown.

Sunday was day that will be long
remembered in the annals of the edu-
cational institutions of the city, for on
that day there were three of its fore
most institutions of learning that met
to worship God and hear the Baccalau-
reate sermons of distinguished minis
tiers, who had come to deliver mes
sages of advice and inspiration.
Besides the strictly Baccalaureate
sermons there was one addressed par
ticularly to the 4. NJ. c. A. of the A
and M. College. this being by Rev.
Plato Durham, of Trinity College, on
Sunday evening. The morning SER
mons. the Baccaluareate events, were
by Rev. Dr. J. d. Hufham to the A. and
NJ. Graduates; Bishop Theo. d. Brat
ton. of Mississippi. to st. Mary's, and
Rev. DR.. John Rose, of Laurinburg,

were able ones. and were heard by
specially large congregations.

The conversion of Lydia that fins
came about was the first fruit of the

to her Savior had always been the
most enthusiastic. When He was led
away to be sacrificed it was a woman

Go from house To house, administer
comfort to the wing. help to the
afflicted, and relief to the suffering
for inasmuch as we have done it unto

He reminded his hearers, the young
ladies, of the task that was set for
them. How much depended upon
them. and of the millions and millions

Give to them the refining influence of
this glorious gospel The UNFOLDING
of the Christian principles is lodged
in your hands--in the hands of our
Christian women. The first one to
receive the grace of Christ on Euro
pean soil was a woman. The first
home designated to be Christian
home was the home of a woman. Does
this signify nothing to you? Does it
not signify that Christian develop
ments and discrimination of the gos-
pei of Jesus Christ is to come from
the homes where Christian women
reign as queens. The stars may be
the poetry of the sky but Christian
women are the poetry of the world,
they will give it its love and happi-

Finally DR.. Rose plead with the
young women of the graduating class,
in the face of this mighty truth. not
to forget their task-that only the
closed door was between the sinner
and his Savior, and to open the door
of their hearts and devote their lives
to the service of that one who stands
knocking at its portals.

BISHOP Il. ID. BRATTON.
Sermon to st. Mary's Graduating
Class I'm the Chapel.

The chapel at St Mary's School
Sunday morning was, as. usual, filled to
overlooking to hear the baccalaureate
sermon, which was preached by the
Rt. Rev. Theodore ID. Bratton, Bishop
Of Mississippi, the former beloved rec
tor of st. Mary's. 1t was beautiful
service, the voices of the choir OIL
school girls rang out strong and fresh.
The TIE Deum Laudamus was rendered
with exceptional beauty.
1t was announced that the collection
would be devoted to the fund for the
enlargement of the chapel, so much
needed to accommodate the crowds
that go out to hear the sermon every
year.
The services were conducted by
Bishop Joseph Blount Cheshire, of this
Columbia, S. c., one of the trustees
of the school, in addition to Bishop
Bratton.
DIR. Bratton took his text from the
twelfth chapter of the Epistle to the
Hebrews, verses 1923, yet once more
l shake not the earth only but also
heaven. And this word, yet once
more, signifieth the removing OF THESE
things that are shaken. as OF things
that are made, that those things
which cannot be shaken may remain.
Wherefore we receiving a kingdom
which cannot be moved let us have
grace, whereby we may serve GOD ac-
ceptaby with reverence and cody
fear. For our God is a consuming
fire.
After speaking of the conflicting
emotions of commencement time,
Bishop Bratton dwelt upon the reali-
zation that comes upon the graduate
that she is no longer a girl. but wo-
man. The day of testing of character
has come. 1t fills her with strange
excitement. These emotions are sacred,
the girding of the young life for cour-
age for the conflict.
Then the Bishop stated his subject
to be the duty which we owe to the
religious thought of the day. A theory
of divine life is essential to human
life. All development has been the
growth of human grasp upon the di-
vine truths. We speak OF this age as
| one OF great change, great progress.
| Some glory in it, others bewail it. So
| people talked in the first century. and
| in the fifth century likewise in the
eleventh, the fifteenth and the eigh-

teenth. No doubt that talk was and
is partly right and partly wrong. The
earth has been greatly shaken in our
day, and the heavens also. great
writer has said this Is an age of great
naturalness, and not of great irrever-
ence. The earth has been greatly
shaken a number of times by advanc-
ing knowledge. SO the heavens are
being shaken by persons who are ask
ing question concerning the divine
truths. They are saying that scripture
has been interpreted metaphorically
and not literally, that heaven and
hell have been read into 1t by theolo-
gians filled with the teachings of Yer
gil and Dante. People are asking how
God could create men to be eternally
lost If punishment is condemnatory
and irremediable in it's nature, of what
good is it?
These are theories of men which
contribute to the religious thought OF
the day. We cannot settle these
theories 1t is asked what right we
have to put the Bible above the con-
science of man. We are in the midst
of this great controversy, and there
have been in the recent discoveries in
the holy lands great combinations OF
Scripture that have put to silence
some of the cavils of the higher
critics.
But our text tells us Of changeless
kingdom and an eternal king, that 1t
is he who is shaking this earth and
teaching every day more and more of
his truths. He is shaking heaven and
earth because his truth has become
so mixed with human error He is fill
ing his truth from the dross. Our at
utude toward all the theories can be
one of secure knowledge in the eternal
existence of the King. Our duty is to
measure theories by the creed of
Christ to examine them without fear
from our lofty vantage ground.

AN APPEAL TO PEOPLE
WITS WEAK LUNGS

Mr.. S. Raynor of 1856 Third street, S.
E., Washington, d. c., whose daughter
Elsie had consumption SO badly that
she couldn't raise her arms above her
head, writes:
"In August last my daughter Elsie
was taken with the typhoid fever; she
was in the care of two physicians for
about two months, expecting her to die
every day. After the fever broke, both
doctors said it had left her with the
consumption, and that it was only
question of few days, and that they
could do nothing more for her. She
then could not raise her hands over her
head. My wife, seeing an advertise
ment of Blood Wine in the papers,
suggested that we try it, as the doctors
had ceased to give her any medicine.
We commenced the Blood Wine with
excellent results; after taking the first
bottle she got out of bed and sat III an
invalid chair, and after the second bot
tie she came downstairs; and kept on
improving right along until she had
taken six bottles, and now she is as
we'll and strong as she ever was in her
life, and if you should see her you
would not think there were any signs
of consumption"
Another link in the chain of evidence
was forged by J. w. Pearson of Cos +
street, S. W., of the Equitable Insur-
ance Company, who said:
~ can safely testify as to the truth
fu1ness of every word of the above testi-
monial, as have been a weekly visitor
to the young lady's house for over four
years in the capacity of an insurance
collector, and having been medical
student at one time and knowing the
nature of her disease, 1 was as much
astonished at the result of Blood Wine
as were her attending physicians"

ness that they were Gods children,

ton to them.

class, you are going out into the world
to fight life's battle. Give yourselves

the will of God. So shall you be

The PUBLIC PAYS AS USUAL.

Decrying the trusts and speaking
more particularly of the Meat Trust,
and the strike which was only recently
ended in the packing houses, the New
York Telegram drives the point home
in the following editorial observation:
Naturally, some one has to pay for
all this. The employees are paying
their share in a way, in being COM
PEELED to so back to work at the old
wage. But the real payment, the one
that takes shape in dollars and cents,
is being paid, as it usually is, by the
public, by those who had no interest
in the strike.
