Mr., Forsyth Pleads for Those Less
Fortunate in Scriptual THINGS

Fortunate in scriptual Things.
Rev. Mr.. Forsyth, at st. Paul's last
evening, preached from the fourth verse
of tile fourteenth chapter Of tho Acts
IIc made an earnest appeal for practical
help from Christians toward the less for
tnnate spiritually, who are striving after
higher and better things. He said he
thought one of the weaknesses of tho
Christian Church lay right here-that
Crstians will not always stand sl,p as

iferred to the various arguments made

and the sacrifices of missionaries In fact
attest, and that It Is In the highest de-

ENGLISH LEADERS SPEAK.
Premier and Ex-Premier Both Ad.
dress Meetings.

London.-Sir Henry Campbell-Ban-
herman, the premier. and Arthur j..
Balfour, the former premier, respect
i've leaders Of the two great parties,
now drawn up in battle array in the
United Kingdom. addressed a large
audience recently.
The premier spoke at Dumferline,
Scotland. making fiscal reform his
battle cry. In answering a question
he said he did not favor separate in
dependent legislature for Ireland, but
intimated that that country should
have a legislature subordinate to the
imperial parliament.
Mr.. Balfour, talking to a sympathet-
ic audience at Queens hall, London,
asked: "Will you have fiscal reform
or home rule. for this is the true
issue Of the campaign"
Sir Henry ampbell-Bannerman said
that the liberals would fight protec-
ton and fiscal reform during the cam
paign, as they did Whine in opposition,
while the former premier said that fis-
cal reforms wou.~ be the first great
question with which the unionist party
would have to deal whenever 1t was
returned to power. because it was a
question in which the welfare of the
country was bound up
Mr.. Balfour plainly indicated that
the whole attack of unionists through
out the present campaign would be
centered on the assumed intention of
the liberal party to give Ireland con-
troll of its own affairs through an ex-
executive responsible directly to an
Irish elective body. This. Mr.. Bal
four believed would inevitably lead to
separation. which he admitted would
be preferable to the continued parlia-
mentary turmoil consequent on half
way measures.
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman de
voted almost his entire speech to an
attack on the fiscal proposition Of the
unionlsts. and said 1t was the duty
Of the liberals to bury any party sup
porting Joseph Chamberlain.
Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secre
tary. speaking to his constituents al
Bedford. Northumberland, said that
the carrying out of Mr.. Chamberlain s
policy would mean the ruin of the ma
tional prosperity. He assured his au
dience that the liberals had no inten
ton of granting home rule, but that
they hoped to do much for Ireland.

RECEPTION AT WHITE HOUSE.

Washington, d. c., Jan. Estates
men, diplomats, soldiers, sailors, office
holders, office seekers and plain people
all gathered at the White House Mon
day to pay respects to the president and
Mrs. Roosevelt
The doors of the historic mansion
were thrown open at II O'Clock and for
htree hours a living stream of well
wishing citizens poured in through the
marble corridor. filed past the president
and his lady, in the beautiful blue par
lor. The reception was one of the most
brilliant in history. Since as far back
as the days of Washington, when loyal
colonists journeyed TO New York to pay
homage to the nations chief, no annual
birthday has been observed with great
er wealth Of gold lace, smart gowns,
joyous music or cordial good will.
This New Year reception was nota-
BILE in many ways. For instance there
was a real vice president there, dig
nitary not seen at similar celebrations
for eight eyars. Hobart was the one
of that rank to participate, until today,
when Fairbanks took his place at the
head of the cabinet line. Mrs. Fair
banks ranked the ladies of the cabinet
circle at Mrs. Roosevelt's right hand.
Miss Alice Roosevelt, whom every one
wished TO see and congratulate, was be
held of all beholders in sweet crowo
of girls gathered in the green room.
One yeara go, Count Cassini, Russian
ambassador. led the diplomatic process
sion entering the White House, just as
the news bearers were crying extras"
that announced Port Arthur's fall.
Not far behind him came Tskahira,
the japanese minister. his face illumi-
mated by an i'll concealed smile of tri-
umph. Today Baron Rosen replaced
Count Cassini, and instead of being at
the front of the foreign contingent, he
was sixth, next to last. Japan had no
minister in line as Baron Acki, newly
selected representative of the mikado,
had not yet arrived.
