THE BIBLE CONFERENCE.
Country People Can Attend and Be
Accommodated.

The coming Bible conference, which
will begin in the Bible Tabernacle here on
Sunday January 81, will be instructive
and beneficial. The tabernacle Is one Of
the largest seating capacity in the State.
Country people near the city can drive in
and out at will. Arrangements are being
made to have hitching posts, ETC., near
the tabernacle. The railroads entering
the city will give reduced rates to those
who desire to come by rail, Hotels and
boarding houses will give liberal rates,
and those private families which can
spare rooms will do so at a moderate
cost TO those who desire them.
1t will be worth trip several hundred
miles TO hear the excellent singing by
choir of seventy trained voices under
the leadership of Prof. Arnold, who is a
graduate Of the Boston Conservatory Of
Music.
Some Of the most prominent divines,
Bible students, teachers and workers In
the land will be here. II will be great
affair, and no one who can possibly at
tend the conference should fail to do so.
Those desiring further information
about entertainment, ETC., should write
to Col. Ferd Bayer, chairman of the en-
tertainment committee, or read regularly
this paper, in which information about
the conference will appear from time to
time.

", four years ago, the holding Of the

should there go up such a howl that
primaries held, the first one In April
and the second one in May Is such an
awful thing and 20 much to be dread.

TRUE MANLINEsS.

Every boy longs to be man. It
may not be amiss to study the oharac.
ter of true gentleman. What is a
true gentleman Manliness means
virtue, virtue means purity, and
purity means power. Never imagine
that the staggering braggart lis .
powerful man, or that such characters
as Corbett, Fitzsimmons. Sullivan or
their tribe are ideal American citi-
zens.
The braggart and bully is always q
weak character. The true gentleman
is strong. The man who endures and
cvercomes and lives to bless other
lives is the true gentleman. The
true gentleman is not made out of
clothes. Fine feathers do not make
fine birds. So no art of the tailor
cap make man out Of q tough by
dressing him in q fine suit. Some
of the men with roughest exterior
possess the truest and tenderest spir-
its, while some dressed in the height
of fashion are demons incarnate. We
like the man with sunny smile and a
loving heart, an honest voice, and q
firm grip Of the hand, clear eye,
keen witted with boundless energy
and a never failing smile, "a man
sincere, sublimely unselfish, inspired
by true warmth of heart. Give
us such man obedient to the claims
of Others, rather than the prim and
pompous man whose heart has the
frigidity of an iceberg. We believe
what we need today in the home
and in the church and in business
is not an austere and unbending
Puritanism, but large hearted,
cheerful spirited christian brotherli-
ness, inspired not by dollars and
acres. but by obedience to our highest
and best natures. The man who en-
cases his life in business claims, or
wraps his being in q mantle woven
out of selfish acts can never save the
world. What we want is sympathy.
There are many young men who have

need is brothers. hearty hand shake.

AS the carriage passed out of the le-

the bystanders-a murmur of curios-

escort was carcely needesd. Toxic,
which has no slums, seems to have no
mobs. The crowd which BANKED the
open space the police made at Shin
bashi station was wholly quiet. Not
alone the legation people were there
to bid him once more bon voyage, but
many Japanese officials awaited his ar
rival in a room upstairs. It was an in
cident of the bureaucratic system
which grinds to the same fineness on
to buy their platform tickets in due
course. From the station itself the
crowd was entirely excluded. The
train was the regular one going at
that hour, and the usual stream Of
getas went clicking over the concrete
to the second and third class compart-
ments. Two or three minutes before
the gong was sounded, the baron,
looking Ill and worn, leading, the lega-
ton folk and the Japanese officials
followed him to his compartment,
where after the Russians had entered
the others paused, and then bowed as
the train pulled out, with no guard ex-
cept few soldiers in the compartment

She carefully chose the hour her first

there Is no reason why the Russian
should have permitted her to. Japan
played precisely within the letter OF
the law. Russia had for years made
