ayerred that he visited the stars, and
that he made that remarkable journey
on his donkey AL Borak. The incidents
in connection with his trip are interest
ing, as they smashed many astronomical
deductions which had previously been
adopted. For instance, he said the stel-
lar system had no orbirs, but tina. the
stars we're suspended from the heavens
Oh golden chains. 1t appears that a
woman has made similar trip. Rev.
Mrs. Nora Davis, of Columbus, O., is at
home again after her psychological tour
through space. She AYERS that her
astral body visited several stars, but
Neptune was the main point of interest.
There, the soulist says, the atmosphere
is constantly pervaded with a glow SIM
liar to our roseate sunset hues. The in
babitarts are large and vegetarians.
They veal sweet smiles and blanket.
But one structure was noted on the star,
and in this was a white onyx altar where
human sacrifices are made. There is,
saws Rev. Mrs. Davis, one ruler in Nep-
tune, and he has held immortal sway for
centuries. Figuring on Rev. Mrs.
Davis's time on her return trip, it would
appear that she had travelled through
space at the gentle rate of los, 900 miles
per second.

EIGHT THOUSAND miners are affected
by curtailment of operations at coal
mines in southeastern Ohio. An almost
unprecedented stagnation in business las
forced the operators to half-time sched-
ule and a complete suspension of opera
tons is predicted. The closing of many
factories is said to be the cause of the
condition. This state of affairs must be
very discouraging to the republican
spellbinders, who are now opening the
presidential campaign and whose key
note Is prosperity under republican rule.

POINTS EVILS OF DIVISION
Separates ChrisI's Army Into Bands
That Do Not March To-
gether.

Rev. o. w. Lawrence. at Memorial
Christian church last evening. took
for his subject consolidating the
Churches" He said in part:
This sermon theme was suggested
by an article in the April number of
EverybOdy's magazine, by DIR. y. ID.
Hills, who now occupies the Ply
mouth pulpit made famous by Henry
Ward Beecher. DIR. Hills approaches
this subject with a mastery argument
from the standpoint of the spirit of
our times. Our outstanding words,
he says, are organization. coopera-
ton, unity As economy and good
sense are praciiced in the business
world, 50 it should be in the christian
world.
Realizing the force and ground of
this splendid argument, let us APP
prOach the subject from another
standpoint. l. the union of the
churches in our vast organization
scriptural and according to the idea
of the Christ? This question must
surely be answered in the affirmative.
Church is always in the singular when
used by the Christ, never in the plu-
raj. In His last prayer recorded in
the seventh chapter of John. when the
burden Of the cross and death was
upon Him. the burden of His petition
was that His people might be one. The
description Of the new testament
church tells us they were all with one
accord i'll one place. When the church
at Corinth was about to be divided
Paul protests with all the strength of
his intellect to stay the separation, /
Cor. 3. 1t was the divine intention.
therefore. that there should be but
one church.
ChrIst's Armies Hostile.
The evils of division are not hard
to find. 1t separates Christ's army in

and are often hostile to one another.
If our school system with its splendid
~ organized unity should be divided
into a. many branches as is the
church. how effete and useless ii would
become. The only excuse we can give
for division is our theological quar-
relS and ecclesiastical differences.
But how can il he remedied? Af-
ter we have a realization of the value
# unity, there seems to be but one
way. and that is for us to come to-
yether on a scriptural basis. Taking

mental things of our common chris
ianity and throwing away all theo-
ogical and philosophical disputes
