PECULIAR UNTIMELINEss OF THE

IL this attempt fails to convince will not be from
want of proof but from want of space; for want of

as such must of necessity impair it's force I'm

point then, to the Decay of Fundamental Faith
and Morals already affecting the churches of the
North, and declare that 'Federation." instead of
arresting and healing this decay" will on the con-
trary, conceal it, condone it, and finally quicken
and complete IT to the destruction of the Funda-
mental Faith and Morals. But what is "Trunda-
mental Faith" Light is luminous on this point
from one source alone. Namely, what "Funda-
mental Faith is, according to last November's
Federation Congress in New York The "Fxecu-
tive Committee Of that congress in its opening re-
port declared the churches represented therein TO
be IN substantial agreement to fundamental

olsenSenuousness does not appear to be recognized,
or resisted in the interests of Christian integrity
one of the painful incidents of the case" Dr Lord
proceeds to remark: GAS in Germany, France
Switzerland and england, the formulas of the Ref
ormation are still professed by churches which are
either Arninian or Socinion, and have long been
known to be such; so the Westminster Confession
is still retained by those who reject it's distinctive
features and doctrines. There are two reasons for
this: The one is-error does not appeal well in the
consecutive order of confession of faith it does
not bear the exposure, and shrinks from the
light The other is found in the advantages gained
by assautng truth under the shelter of an orthodox
creed. AT the beginning they privily brought in
damnable heresies. No stab is so sure so effe,-
tuab as that which is given in the disguise of a
friend; no open war is so dangerous so deadly as
household treason" 1t frequent complaint
among the Old School in 1887 that there was often
a noticeable want of frankness in the conduct of
the controversy the part of the New School of
the DAY. After exposing from their writings the
serious emergencies of Mr.. Barnes and other New
School divnes from the accepted doctrines of the
Westminster Confession, Mr. Cheeseman remarks:
I am aware that Mr.. Barnes and the New School
dlVlnes often express themselves in language in
consistent with these views of their sentiments but
When Mr.. Barnes uses orthodox phrases, he takes
occasion with commendable franlzness ultimately
TO explain himself, as not intending thereby to con-
radict or invalidate, modify his opinions or SEN
tments, but as intending thereby to silence the
voice of alarm That is, he used orthodox phrases
with purpose to misead "A similar course was
pursued by Arius and Arminius They softened
their statements and avowed their belief in an or
thodoX creed to silence the voice of alarm" DR.
Dewey the Unitarian, also avows his belief in
atonement satisfaction Precipitation, depravty re-
generation and Justification" The published works
OF leading divines give character their respective
communiOns. The published works of Arius and
Arminius, not the creeds which they respectively
subscribed, and which were sufficiently sound but
telr own eXpostions of their creed the sources
to which resort to ascertain their opnions and
those of their followers. And in like manner not
the creed alone of the New School body but their
explanations of that creed contained in the wide
Y-clrculated writings of their leading and inhuen-
taI divines, another and an ultimate criterion
to which we must resort to ascertain what is really
their denomnational theology. We are now pre-
pared to compare, in another article the views of
Old and New School Presbyterans.

In the present state things i'm the Southern

Importance to understand what is the real char
acter of what is known the New School Presby-
terianism. The open population of the ethical
teachings of the Decalogue Law and the New Tes-
lament Scriptures seems to have no power to
check the tendency to a more less close afFa-
ton with the body which has admitted this type
of doctrine into organic union with the old sound
theories of Christian truth. 1t remains to be tried
whether the notorious Pelagian and Unitarian ten
denotes of the New School theology have also lost
their terrors with Calvinstic Presbyterians.
the real doctrines of the Christian religion is there
by self-cOnvicted. These New School errors were
driven out of the Presbyterian Church in 1897 and
period of marked prosperity for thirty years
followed the separation. In 1870 these errors were
invited back into the Presbyterian Church under q
positive treaty giving them the right to live and
propagate themselves without resistance in any
part of that denominations The Organic Union of
the Southern Church with this reunited Assembly
would carry the effects into the whole bounds
of the Southern body No resistance could be made
to the entry of any New School minister into the
charge Of any Southern congregation. No resist
ance could be made to the teaching of these errors
by any Southern Presbytery All attempts at such
resistance would result i'm general confusion and
conflict and i'm the pressure of the Walnut Street
Church decision, all the property of the recaIc-
trant bodies, whether Congregational or Presbvter-
ial. Before the door is thrown open to such re-
suits let the Church refresh it's memory or acquire
the information touching the real character of the
New School views. They probably unknown

THE WAY OF THE CROSS.


Ills thine to dwell in the desert"
Such the Fates' Decree
while others smile in the meadows fair,
The lonely desert for thee"
They spake to a heart all eager
To gather Lffes treasures sweet
AS bright with the rays of the early morn
They clustered about her feet
Around her blossomed the meadows
Sweet with the breath of flowers,
Before her stretched the desert bleak,
With it's gray and lonely hours.
And she turned with a wistfuI longing
Toward the beauty of flower and tree,
Then bravely the sweet lips whispered low,
The desert is given to me-"
Its mine to dwell in the desert;
L will tend it with fondest care;
In the bleak and lonely desert drear
Sweet flowers shall blossom there.
Though my heart be sometimes weary,
And my tears sometime may flow
To water the flowers of my tenderest love,
None but the Fates shall know"
Many years she dwelt in the desert
She gave it her tenderest care,
And long ere her work was ended here
1t bossomed a garden fair.
And she grew to love the desert
More than the meadows sweet
She made it a home for weary hearts
And a rest for tired feet.
And many a heart-sicl traveller
Who wandered the desert way
Was cheered and refreshed and glad at heart
Because she had trod that way.
At last came the Lord of the desert
And His words were sweet to hear,
my child. thou hast followed the way trod
The way of the cross and tear
And because thou hast tended My desert
And made it blossom for Me,
No more shall it be thy lot or part;
Lo! the meadows blossom for thee"

READYTOSELLOUT
Chicago Street Railways Pre-
pare for Transfer.
Title Fixed Up for Sale to the
City.

New York. May Representa-
tives of the North and West Side rail-
way companies of Chicago and the Chi
cago Union Traction company of that
city, after a series of conferences here
came to an agreement yesterday, ac-
cording to a morning paper. which
will permit the early completion Of
negotiations for the sale of the proper
ties of all the companies to the city.
The agreement does not settle the diff
ferences between the companies taking
part in it, but places all the property
of all the companies in such shape that
1t can be sold to the city with a clear
title. The agreement was brought
about by concessions by the Union Trac-
ton company to its underlying com
panies, the North and West Side con
Germs. The detailed terms of the
agreement will be announced in Chi
cago today.
It was stated, however, that though
the North and West Side companies
appear to have an advantage the SUI
perior company granted concessions
because it considered it best for all
concerned to bring about an early re-
Mobilization Of the property.
The properties and franchises of the
three companies are TO be trusted
with a new company which viii be in
corporated at once. The new COM
pany will have full power to dispose of
all the properties and will not be ham
pered by the lawsuits between the
three companies.
In case the new company comes to
terms with the city, it will hold the
money secured for the properties and
franchises until the respective rights of
the stock and bondholders of the Union
Traction company, North Side and
West Side companies are determined
by the courts or amicably adjusted out
of courts. Then and not until then.
viii it distribute the proceeds of the
sale to the city
New York financiers interested in
the property and the Chicago men
taking part In the conferences seemed
pleased with the outcome.
'sThe agreement Is also a good thing
for the city, said one of the conferees.
1.-THE city can now get the properties
at an early date and the work of
building them up can begin at once.
The city Will have a more valuable
property than if the wrangling had
continued. and the public will more
speedily get better service"
