cHRIsT's DIVINITY.
DR.. Forsyth Speaks to Men at
Y. M, G.. A.

rhe members of the Young Mems
Christian Association and many ViaitoFs
listened yesterday afternoon to very
thoughtful and interesting address de-
l!vered before them Ivy Dr. FORSYTH rec.
tor of st. Pauls. The talk was delivered
from large fund OF thought IN the hnes
OF Christian belief and experience, cal
culated to dlspel much doubt that must
come TO all thinking men ana TO move
their hearts to larger hope.
DIR. Forsyth's theme was is the d
vinity of Christ Fact or Ffction? me
subject was assigned to DR.. Forsyth as
appropriate 10 the season The
speaker took his audience to the closing
days of Christs ministry. showing that
Christ knew Himself and that men knew
hin, well. They piled Him with ques-
tins and he rc,ored with one concerning
Himself: What think we OF Christ,
whog. -nn Is He?" When they answered
David's he asked why David in spirit
called Him Lord. saying, Jehovah SAID
unto my Lord sit Thou on My Right
hand"' David believed that the Re-
deerner would be divine-not an excellent
man but Goldman. We to-day may
find ways OF understanding or appreciat-
ing the divinity of Christ. first from
Old Testament phrophecy, second from
New Testament record. third, from rea-
son in connection with scientific fact,
fourth. from association with Him.
M SrsyiA showed hqy The Phe God
the Lord our. Redeemer,, Inc L H,a
temple, and the Man who !s my feii2w
as saith the Lord Of Hosts" was the
means OF securing faith from Napoleon,
speculative assent from Byron. and dill
Guilty insoluble. but by acceptance from
Rousseau. And how before them all q
Psalmist, in the 45th Psalm. had seen
and declared that Christ vas fairer thaii
the children OF men,.
ed the acknowledgement of His dignity
by Nathaniel and Simon Peter, and the
Roman officer at the cross ana now
Christ had declared that lie was the son
OF God to n man whom he had healed, 70
those who criticised Him and to God 70
whom he prayed. The speaker quoted
Canon Liddon to the effect that III CHRIST
were not God he was not even good.
The third source of appeal was 10 rea-
son and the scientific discoveries concern
ing the single parentage in some flowers
and some lower forms of amman NE. anu
in the bee and the silk worm. ana so ne
showed the natural and not violent de-
mand upon the belief of men when the
prophecy was made to the Virgin Mary OF
the overshadowing power OF the Holy
Ghost and the birth of Jesus as the son
OF God.
The fourth appeal was to association
with Christ who has not only the WORDS
OF eternal life TO offer men, but lie itSeit,
.and that more abundantly from aiHl
whom was the life and light OF men.

City Shows Rapid and Sub
stantial Growth.
lspecial to mic rlmes.plspateh.)

BRISTOL, VA. December 31.--Watch-
night services were held in several of the
churches here to-nlght, and at the mid
night hour the bells We're rung, signaling
the departure OF the old year and ringing
in the new.
The year 1905 was one of the most sue
cessful in the history of Bristol. 1t was
an unprecedented year for building
operations, and tho building done here
during the year will aggregate about one
million dollars.
The business and industrial status has
been equally satisfactory. The Virginia
Iron, Coal and Coke Company has de-
c!ded to make Bristol the center of its
vast operations, and to this end Is now
constructing a mammoth iron and steel
rolling mill here. The company will erect
car shops and other enterprises later.
Many small industries have been estab-
lshed. The South and Western Railway
Company has established Offices here, and
from Its headquarters here is distributing
multiplied thousands of dollars through
this section In payment construction
work.

given a long forward push,
The committee is in possession of
statistics from other fair associations

morrow night, all of which show the ven
ture to have been successful in the
highest Ndegree, from financial as we'll as
other stand points. Mr.. Stuart has got
ten in touch with large number of
cattle exhibitors in the West. and 1T is
believed the Virginia Fair will be we'll
patronized In their line, and there is
every assurance that the horse and cat
tie breeders in Virginia will rally strongly
to the show.
The agricultural outlook is also very
bright, for Virginia herself is 'long" on
this line. From the great western,
southwestern, northern and trucking sec
tons OF the state those who grow their
vegetables from the ground will bring
their products here for competition and
exhibit, according to the popular view.

of that management by Judge George l..

Z Of Failure have been too plain to escape
the notice of even the casual observer.
Judge Christians experience is but an
other straw.
AS we have before on several occasions
stated, no more pressing duty, in our
opinion, rests on the new Governor than
that OF reorganizing thoroughly the Vlr-
GINA Military Institute and the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute. A thorough shak-
ile up, with new men OH the board. is
the prime necessity Of these schools.
With new men on the board, we may
expect many changes in the entire school

Race Problems.

The Charlottesville Progress reproduces
with its approval some comments bf ours
on the saying of Senator Gearin of Orc
son. that the people of the Pacific slope,
who have race problem of their own.
are willing to leave the southern people
to settle the negro problem in their own
way The Progress says that 1t makes
n difference whose OK is gored, adding:
Now the conditions that surround the
Chinese problem on the Pacific slope are
precisely those that environ the negro
problem in the South. If the Northern
people had negro question at home.
they would take the view of tho Oregon
senator"
Precisely. But in some localities of
the North they have a smallsized negro
problem, and they deal with 1t as we
do down here 1t is all in the point of
view.
