Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of her people. This beautiful queen had been brought up in a religious atmosphere. Her foster-father. Mordecai, was a devout worshiper at the divine throne. She was grounded in the Hebrew faith when a child. She knew that God was omnipo- tent and if she went forth in his strength she might be omnipotent too. Oh, my friends, will you and l go forth to battle for God feeling that the divine power of God Is in us and that we through him can do all things?
 How clearly the power of God can be seen in this story. In order to increase your faith in the operations of the dl- vine power l want you to step aside little while from the queen's banquet hall to see how God also paves the way for the conquest of his children. A few nights before the king and his prime minister banqueted with Queen Esther, Ahasuerus was unable to sleep. Back and forward he tossed upon his couch. Then in disgust he said to himself: 'I cannot sleep. Then at least let me pass the hours of night away profitably." So he began to call: Light, guard, light Send my secretary to read to me-" Turn to the sixth chapter of the book of Esther: "On that night the king could not sleep, and he com manded to bring the book of the Chron- icles, and they were read before him" The book of Chronicles was simply the daily newspaper of olden times. As the court secretary read on he reads how Mordecai, the foster father of the queen, had ferreted out an intended crime whereby two of the chamberlains, Big thana and Teresh by name, were going to kill the king. Then when the queen told the story of her life and that Morde- cai was her foster-father, at once the king said: Yes, Mordecai. That is the Hebrew who saved my life." Do you not naturally grasp the result? At once the king was influenced toward the Hebrews and this casual reading paved the way for granting the request of the pleading queen You say this sleeplessness of tho king was a happen so. You say the read ing of the Chronicles that night was a little thing. I say these things were or- dained of God and vital in their results
 Thus, by the seemingly Insignificant things of life, God is paving the way for the benefits of his children. And by the seemingly insignificant things he Is today paving the way for the salvation of some souls within our church walls. Years ago there were Queen Esthers pleading with Christ for the salvation of their dear ones For years and years that pleading went on. So today by seeming insignificance we were lead to come to this mornings service Our mothers our fathers our wives our children's, prayers are about to be answered. Now is the accepted time for some of us. The Holy Spirit is work ing fin our hearts now, as he worked in Shushan banquet hall.

Filed His Answer.
RECEIVED BY PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The form

Secretary Loomis and Minister Bowen

bad sent a card TO the president and
followed it by appearing in person,
where he vas Immediately received by
The president, who told him that as he
hnd come in answer to his h.
would be pleased to have the minister
call at once upon Secretary Taft. Mr..
Bowen accordingly went to the war
department and spent u short time in
conversation with the secretary. The
status OF the case is officially explained
as follows:
Acting Secretary Loomis has notified
Secretary Taft that he has completed
the preparation of his answer to the
various allegations concerning himself
which had been transmitted to the sec
rotary of state in the first place aud
then to the secretary of war by Minis.
Ter Bowen. Minister Bowen had been
careful to explain TO Secretary Taft
that these were not his charges: that
he merely transmitted them for the in
formation of the department. Mr.. Loo
mis- had previously waited upon Secre-
tary Taft and submitted his answer,
with accompanying ~docttnents bearing
upon the subject. Secretary Taft went
owe these with care and then carried
them TO the White House, where he
told the president of their contents and
consulted with him as to the curse to
be pursued. 1t was then agreed that
range the matter for presentation to
the president. SO when Minister Bow
en- called upon Mr.. Taft the latter
tuined over to him both Mr.. LOOMS
answer TO the charges transmitted by
Mr.. Bowen. with the accompanying
documents. and Mr.. Loomis' counter
charges against Minister Bowen to the
effect that he had instlgated the circu-
lation of %unfounded reports against
his superior officer, involving malfea-
sance in Office.
Mr.. Bowen told Mr.. Taft he had not
sent on the charges with any idea of
prosecuting them. hut had simply for
warded as a matter of diplomatic duty
the allegations and accusations which
were current in Caracas against Mr..
Ioomis.
Mr.. Bowen has completed his reply
and will present it to Secretary Taft
today. Mr.. Bowen declined to give any
intimation of its nature.

JOHN PAUL JONES' BODY.

Memorial Chapel at to
serve ms 81 Monument.
WASHINGTON, May 16. Acting
Secretary Loomis has suggested to
Ambassador Porter that the remains of
John Paul Jones be embarked on Ad-
miral Sigsbee's squadron not on the
Fourth of July, as originally proposed,
but OH some other day in the same
week, because the Fourth invariably is
celebrated in the navy with all the
bunting at the m%astheads. with much
gun fire and is generally a day of jolli-
ficatioh.
1t is the present intention of the navy
department to have the remains of
John Paul Jones finally deposited be-
meath the great memorial chapel at An
napolis, one of the most beautiful. eIab-
crate and historically interesting of
any Of the government buildings.
The chapel itself will thus serve as a
splendid monument to the memory OF
Paul Jones, and it will be unnecessary
for the congress to provide for a spe-
cial memorial structure.
