TOLD HOW
TO OBSERVE
SUNDAY

Rev f. s. Rousmaniere preached a
sermon last night at Grace church in an
swer TO the question, How Shall We OBJ
serve Sunday" Good advice and many
suggestions were given for the edification
OF his hearers. In part he said;
Sunday is primarily day OF worship
This does not necessarily mean that the
whole day shall be spent in formal wor-
ship, but II should be spent in such
manner. Many good people are exercised
over the matter OF social observances on
Sunday, and IT may be said that so far
as social life ar6uses the tender side Of
human nature and Is conducive 20 good
and worthy deeds, so far is the social life
in accord with the principle of the days
THE same principle will apply TO
amusements. II is foolish TO say that
amusements have no place on Sunday,
but whatsoever sort they may be they
should make a man more sensitive TO
better things, and such amusements there
surely are
Sunday is a day that provides an ex-
cellent opportunity for reading. i hold
to the old-fashioned idea that there
should be a difference between Sunday
there should be no discrimination in the
selection OF reading for every day in
the week, but the Sunday reading should
be put upon a little higher plane than
the reading OF week days. IL works Of
fiction are read, select as may elevate
the thoughts. Who could read David
Copperfield or Pendennis and not come
I'm closer sympathetic touch with hu-
manity?
Read much poetry: 1t is the life Of
the human spirit The poets Of our age
have been its prophets. A man must
read poetry TO keep his eve keen TO
human nature. | would not spend much
time on the Sunday newspaper And /
say this. not because il is published on
Sunday, but because there is so much
that is better reading than the cheap
lierature in the average Sunday news
paper.
Books OF biography are far more ele-
vating. and especially the biographies
found in the New Testament. Try the ac-
count OF the life OF Jesus Christ as re-
corded by Matthew, Mark. Luke and
John. 1t is good for you. Read 1t.
I'VE do not want a stupid Sunday. but
a quiet Sunday; not a gloomy Sunday.
but a happy Sunday. that we may think
better thoughts and do better service
throughout the week"

STANDARD
OIL TRUST

Rev J. Deans. pastor OF the North Con-
gr.rational church OH Walling street
prea last evening on "Can Man
Separate his Religion From His Bush
ness" The religion OF the head or the
Stahdard oil company was called pre-
tentious religion and the morality OF the
c, -poration as a whole was harshly con-
4 nned.
lie said In part:"One OF the most dis
t,,ssing circumstances in our lives today
is TO see man bringing his business into
his religion. BY that mean that IT Is not

There are COUNTLESS numbers or men
who do not want 10 bring religion into
their business that are very willing TO
LrinR their business into their religion.
Religion Is greatly hampered by the
bringing OF business into the church.
MANY young men are kept away from
the church because they know that their
employer attends regularly and they know
him as one who is greedy, selfish and I'M
rural.
when | say that We ought 10 take oar

that we ought 10 so around making long
prayers on the street corner nor do |
mean that we shou'd always be quoting

Many babies have been launched into
life with constitutions weakened by dis
ease taken In with their mothers milk
Mothers cannot be too careful as to the
food they use while nursing their babes

on Mr. Rockefeller's offer OF 100000 TO

DIR. HILLS COMMENTS.
New York, April l0.-In the course NJ
his sermon in Plymouth church, Brooklyn,
yesterday the Re-. Or. Newell Dwight
II Ills referred TO the gift OF 100000 made
by John ID. Rockefeller to the American
Board OF Foreign Missions. and to Mr..
y ,ckefeller's SON. He said in part:
"The saddest words that have been
written in this generation were spoken
before Brown University by young man
Who Is TO inherit one OF the greatest for
tunes in this country They were spoken
IN defence OF the trusts. Listen TO them.
1.-The Ameican 3cauty rose can be
produced in all its splendor only by sac
rifcing the early buds that grow up
around IT.
"'The rose has 1000 buds. and in order 10
produce the American Beauty the garden

I'm his econoYS'r argument this young
nan tells the working classes hrutally,
that 800 small business men must be
snifTed out OF existence In order that his
american Beauty, the trust, may be pro-
diced.
Can you wonder that after that when
a man gives gifts we have no gratitude TO

|NTER-CLASS
STRUGGLES
CONCLUDED

There Is every possibility that there
will be no further conflict between the
two lower classes at Brown this season
on account Of the banquet which is to
be held tonight by the freshmen Dean
Meiklejohn has interviewed with his power
ful hand and announced that the con-
tests shall cease and the men return to
chapel and 10 studies
This means that the certain form OF
youthful ebullition which vents itself
every year by some such means this
at this season must be curbed and the
stories that used TO be told Of prowess
and hairbreadth escapes TO former genera
tions will not be related again and there
will be no memories of fun had when
once the walls Of the college are left be-
hind. Dean Meiklejohn has so informed
the boys and what the dean says to them
goes. This is well known and the young
men of the two classes are again browsing
in the intellectual fields OF all the "olo-
gies,' but despite that they cannot alto
gether smother the subtle feeling OF ex-
citement that moves each one when there
Is an officer of either class seen TO be

NOT SATISFIED WITH MINES
Submarine Boats viii Probably Take Place
Of Mines.

The third committee of the fertilization
board, OF which Rear Admiral Charles
NJ. Thomas. L g N. is chairman, is de-
voting special attention 10 the dangerous
incidents TO the use OF submarine mines.
The trials given submarine mines in
Narragansett bay during the Spanish war
resulted unsatisfactory. due chiefly TO
the strong currants which swept through
the harbor, making such defences ex-
tremely dangerous. II is an established
fact that number OF the Russian war
ships were blown up by thrown sub
marine mines. and the present practice
OF England In discarding submarine mine
defences 10 a large extent where the tides
are strong, and placing there submarine
boats. has added TO the sentiment we
have OF replacing mines with boats
