LENToN SERMON BY RABBI

LENICSN SERMJN BY RABBI.
 Rabbi Charles Flescher of the Temple Adath Israel preached len ten sermon on the real meaning of the life and death of Jesus at the Sunday morning meeting n Potter Hall. After referring to the seeming incongruity of rabbi giving a lemon sermon and of a Jewish teacher undertaking to inter- pret the career of Jesus, he spoke of the plans being made in Russia for a massacre of the Jews at Easter, Con- tinuing, he said:
 Everywhere, I believe, the Christ real significance and to the effect story is misused, in ignorance of it's (though not with the purpoe) of min mixing itt reult for good. Especially Is this true of the lenten season, when not merely the life, but even more the suffering of Jesus is emphasized.
 The significance of the death of Jesus seems to have been altogether lost upon the Christian world. Again refer, not to its thelogical but to it's ethical aspect. Christianity has made that voluntary, unresisting end sym bolic of self-surrender, self-denlal and self-sacrifice, and it has asked men to- go and do likewise But it is neither natural nor desirable for men to sur render, deny efface or sacrifice them selves. Nor have they done so. As a result, they have been made to feel a conflict between their inherent and proper desire for self-expression and sef-inistenee, and the demand of the Church for self-sacrifice and the losing of life that it might be saved. And so the value of the death of Jesues has been lost upon this follofers
 "As I interpret that death 1t has vast worth as an inspiring example. It is of the same stuff and calibre as the last act of Socrates, when he drank the cup of poison hemlock Both Socrates and Jesus could have escaped their un- timely end had they cared to do so. But they would have had to deny them- selves their real selves; they would have had to surrender their causes Had they done so they would both by this time have been forgotten.

"THE oLD cLoTHEs MAN. ;

A large audience welcomed James Kyrle MacCurdy in his great play, "The Old Clothes Man." at the New Haven theater last night. It also indelibly stamped upon it the verdict of approv- al. The work of MT. MacCurdy and his associates in the company was of very high order, and their portrayal of the various parts allotted to them was received with applause of the most gen. erous kind. Mr MacCurdy is host in himself and his clever imitation of the Jew peddler won for him the plaudits of the audience from the orchestra to the gods in the gallery At times he moved his audience in tears and the next minute he had them laughing at the humor he poured forth. The Old Clothes Man" is play from his own pen and makes the clothes vender, Sol omon Levi, character study of great merit. All the buffoonery and ridicule are absent, and the old Hebrew is a most touching and pathetic figure, whose ready humor and ability to see the bright side of the darkest situation win him the love and respect of all. It is a play in a class of it's own; an att traction out of the ordinary; something new in melodramatic productions, care fully woven together; plot most clev- erly told and excellently produced. The scenic effects are also excellent and many novel features are introduced. Especially is this the case in the last act, where a boxing match takes place between Danny Dougherty and Kid sharkey, and is a genuine drawing card and was enthusiastically received last night.
 The Old Clothes Man" is we'll worth seeing, and there will undoubtedly be large houses at each of the next three performance, which take place tonight and tomorrow night and at the mati- nee tomorrow. Sale of seats at the box office.

JAMES JOHNSTON.
WELL KNOWN BUSINESS MAN

A Member of the Firm of Ritchie &
 JOhnston-sketch of His Career.

A Member of the Firm of Ritchie &
 JOhnstOn-Sketch of His Career.
 By the death of James Johnston, 115 Bishop street, a member of the firm of Ritchie & Johnston, New Haven has lost one of her most energetic bus mess men. MT. Johnston's death, which occurred at five minutes to o'clock last night will come as surprise to his many friends, who knew him in so- cial capacity, as well as his associates in the building trade. Although he had been complaining of nervous trouble and had also been afflicted with rleu- matism for some time no serious re- suits were looked for, and his end, which came so suddenly, will be deep ly regretted by all who knew him. A native of Eyemouth, in the southeast of Scotland, MT. Johnston came to his country about eighteen years ago, and three years later became associated with William Ritchie in tine formation of the well known concern of Ritchie X Johnston. During his fifteen years business career MT. Johnston had to do with erecting many important build ings in this city, prominent among which might be mentioned the Mishkan Israel temple, the handsome residence of J. Edward Heaton, and others.
 Of retiring disposition he took no active part in politics, but was very much interested in the success of the New Haven Building and Loan asso- citation, of which he was a director. He was a member of the United church, and was well known and highly re- spected by the brethren of Hiram lodge, No. l. F. and A. M, of whicC1 he was member. He was also a mem Der of No, 2 Commandery Knights Templar, and also of Pyramid lodge, A, o. U. w. Besides his wife for whom the utmost sympathy is felt in her sud- den bereavement, MT. Johnston leaves sister in Scotland and brother, Rus sell Johnston, who is member of one of the leading dry goods houses in Dayton, o. Arrangements for the fun eral have not yet been made.

MIR. TRUEMAN SURPRISED.
Handsome Gift by Employees of Anthony
 6 ScoviII Company Yesterday.

& ScOviII Company Yesterday.
 William Trueman, who will retire as superintendent of the Anthony & Sco- will company on May 1, was presented with an elegant and comfortable gift by the employees of that concern yesterday. The gift came as a great surprise to MT. Trueman, and for the nonce he was quite disconcerted.
 At the noon hour Charles Vols, rep resenting the different departments, called on MT. Trueman and requested him to step into the shipping room, where all the employees of the factory had assembled. Then Carl Bornmann, acting as spokesman, in few feIicitous words presented him with handsome antique oak rocker, of mission design and of the latest pattern. It was so unexpected, however, that MT. Trueman required several moments before he could quite recover from his surprise. He thanked the donors heartily and sincerely, as it gave him much pleasure to think that he could take away with him the well-wishes of his co-workers to his new field of endeavor.
 The rocker is very handsome affair and is inscribed as follows:
