average BOYS Of the present day. DO
not most youths and maidens of twelve
summers have inspired visions from
God. as Christ had an inspired vision!
Does not God call to them at this CRIT

ness?" He does. | want you 10 STUDY
with me this morning some OF those
cbildbood visions. Men and women
too have their times of reaching out
70 things unseen, but this morning let
us thinl, chiefly Of those bright lmagln-

Why do put such an emphasis upon

visions of Youth.

Oh the visions Of youth! How I'M
portant they are for the development
Of the child. In the book Of Proverbs
we read. "Where there is no vision the
neonle perish" That means when the

them, where the sculptor cannot see a
more perfect statue in dim outline
standing beside the stone be has chisel-
cd and the musician cannot hear a
owooter song than that which he has
composed, and the reformer cannot see

Ca(rnage
Sermon
By Rev.
Frank De Witt Talmase. D. ID.

Los Angeles, Cal, April 29.-In this
nermon the preacher takes us back to
Chat wonderful period of life when the
mind of the child, emerging from the
mysterious twilight land, first begins
to think independently. He warns us
TO respect these visions Of childhood.
The text is Luke ii, 10, "Wist ye not
that | must be about Ny Fathers busi-
pess?"
Without doubt one OF the most salts
factory pictures ever painted OF Jesus
Christ is that of Hoffman, called
"christ the Boy Talking With the Doc
tors In the Temple" We have seen
scores Of pictures Of Jesus Christ. The
Partisan Louvre Is full Of Them. The
Vatican is full Of them. The art gal
Tlcrjes of Antwerp and Brussels and
Berlin and Venice are full of them.
But though the greatest artists have
exhausted their genius to reproduce
for us an inspired idea of the saviour s
face vet most of them have come far
short of the ideal. They either make
! Christs face too effeminate, as did
Bida. Da Vinci and Stelnle; or too
much of n Hercules, as did RuDens
and Vandyke; or too grotesque, as
did Tintoretto and Rembrandt and
Guido: or too mercenary, as did Ber-
nardo. Strozzl and Plockhurst; or toe
stern. as did Dore and Albrecht Durer'
on. too agonlzlng, as did Bouguereau
md Correggio: or too lachrymose, as
did AIRY Scheffer. But toward HoH
mans picture there IS no division OF
opinion. We are here a unit III oui

Pueblo, Colo, Oct. Am explosion
Or blowout occurred at one of the fur
naces of the Minnequa steel works this
morning, shortly before 9 o'clock, car
rying death and destruction in its
wake. Two men were burned to death
and two others were so frightfully hurt
that at noon they were supposed to
be dying at the Minnequa hospital.
Identification Impossible.
Identification of the bodies taken out
OF the furnaces is absolutely out of the
question. Information regarding the
explosion from the inside of the works
is meager, no n being allowed to
enter and the general managers Office
declining to give any information.
More May Be in Debris.
1t is believed that several more
workmen than admitted are buried in
the debris. The furnace. which was
built at a cost of over a million dol
lars, is badly wrecked.

Hazed Member of Faculty.

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 3.-The girls
who belong to the Lisbon society of the
Sufiield Literary institute induced Miss
Katherine Davis of the school faculty
to join the society and they played
tricks on her. They first blindfolded
her. then put her in a gocart and
wheeled her from her home through
the streets to Alderman Wares house,
where they held the initiation cere-
mony. She was thoroughly exhausted
by the ordeal. Many residents smiled
when they saw her led through the
streets blindfolded. Freshmen tried to
break up the initiation ceremonies, but
the girls put out the lights.
